  • 2. HC Wainwright analysts commented, "We continue to believe that positive outcomes, on both safety and efficacy, from all four studies is highly likely, and with data directly comparing its outcomes to the current standard of care in both DD and NDD patients, we continue to believe Akebia is well positioned for clinical, regulatory and commercial success. Affirm Buy. $17 PT. We employ a rNPV model, driven by U.S. sales of vadadustat (early 2022 launch, 75% POS, $2.5B peak U.S. sales) and Auryxia (peak sales of $409M in 2024) out to 2028 (zero terminal value) discounted at 12.5%. Risks to our investment thesis and target price include: (1) failure in pivotal Phase 3 vadadustat studies; (2) failure to secure regulatory approval of vadadustat; (3) a smaller than anticipated commercial opportunity due to market size, competition, and/or pricing; and (4) intellectual property opposition."
