Foolish Take
A new disclosure from the billionaire-backed Schusterman family office highlights an interesting vote of confidence in a newly public company building defensible technology in a large, under-digitized market. HeartFlow, which only began trading in August, sits at the intersection of AI, cardiology, and precision diagnostics—a combination attracting long-horizon investors even as early-stage medtech valuations remain volatile.
According to the November 14 filing, Schusterman Interests—signed by a managing director of Charles and Lynn Schusterman Family Investments—initiated a $65.3 million position in HeartFlow during the third quarter, acquiring 1.9 million shares. The family office now counts HeartFlow as its fourth-largest holding in the filing, alongside a new Karman position. As of September 30, HeartFlow represented 14.9% of the fund’s 13F assets.
HeartFlow shares have climbed roughly 70% from their $19 IPO price following August’s upsized offering, which raised approximately $316.7 million in gross proceeds. Ultimately, for long-term investors, the Schusterman move reflects growing confidence in a promising technology—and raises the question of whether HeartFlow’s early momentum can translate into durable revenue growth as the platform expands.
