What are Wall Street analysts saying about Agios Pharmaceuticals stock?
Here are some recent quotes from research analysts about Agios Pharmaceuticals stock:
- 1. According to Zacks Investment Research, "Agios' first wholly owned precision medicine, Tibsovo, was approved by the FDA last July 2018 for treating R/R AML. The drug generated strong sales in the reported quarter. Tibsovo’s label expansion studies also look promising with the FDA recently granting a priority review in first-line setting. Agios’ progress with pipeline candidates, namely AG-348 and AG-881, has been quite impressive too. We are also optimistic about Agios' collaboration with Celgene as it provides the company with regular funds and royalties from Idhifa sales. However, Agios’ heavy dependence on partner Celgene for royalties remains an overhang. Stiff competition from big pharma companies is another matter of concern for the company. Shares have outperformed the industry in the year so far. Loss estimates have widened ahead of Q1 earnings. Agios has a positive record of earnings surprises in the recent quarters." (4/25/2019)
- 2. Canaccord Genuity analysts commented, "We maintain a favorable view on Fouse as the CEO given her expensive experience at Laboratories, holding various senior roles focusing on corporate strategies, finance, and operations. We believe Fouse will help maintain AGIO’s heading in launching the approved products and developing the pipeline." (9/5/2018)
- 3. Needham & Company LLC analysts commented, "BeiGene announced the pricing of its Hong Kong initial public offering of 65,600,000 ordinary shares. Based on the assumed exchange rate, the public offering, priced at $13.76 (HK$108) per share or $178.9 per American Depositary Share (ADS) is expected to raise ~$903M (HK$7.08bn)." (8/2/2018)
