What are Wall Street analysts saying about Aerie Pharmaceuticals stock?
Here are some recent quotes from research analysts about Aerie Pharmaceuticals stock:
- 1. HC Wainwright analysts commented, "We recently lowered our 2019 revenue to just under $80M vs. prior guidance of $110-120M, and Aeri just lowered to $70-80M. While this looks far below consensus of $98M, we believe current expectation were more in the $85M range, thus guidance is not too far below that. Importantly, we believe the guidance is very achievable, and based only on what the company is already seeing internally in terms of orders, leading indicators and managed care progress, rather than on aggressive market-research based assumptions." (8/8/2019)
- 2. According to Zacks Investment Research, "The uptake of Aerie’s lead drug, Rhopressa, has been strong so far. The drug continues to gain traction with an increase in covered lives under various Medicare plans. The approval of the second drug, Rocklatan, a once-daily, quadruple-action fixed-dose combination of Rhopressa and Xalatan, has boosted the company’s portfolio and should propel sales in the coming quarters as glaucoma is one of the largest segments in the global ophthalmic market. We are also impressed with the company’s efforts to develop and boost pipeline. The company is evaluating possible uses of its proprietary portfolio of Rho Kinase inhibitors beyond glaucoma. Shares have outperformed the industry in the year so far. While the glaucoma market holds potential, Aerie faces stiff competition from existing players and new ones like Vyzulta, among others." (6/28/2019)
- 3. Mizuho analysts commented, "We adjusted our 1Q19 revenue estimate for Rhopressa down but maintain our FY2019 net revenue estimate at the high-end of guidance. We expect Rhopressa Scripts to pick up around June driven by higher anticipated formulary coverage (Medicare Part D going from ~40% currently to ~70%+ in May – guided by management)." (4/21/2019)
