What are Wall Street analysts saying about AMAG Pharmaceuticals stock?
Here are some recent quotes from research analysts about AMAG Pharmaceuticals stock:
- 1. According to Zacks Investment Research, "AMAG's Feraheme currently competes with IV iron replacement therapies including Venofer, Injectafer, Ferrlecit and their generic versions among others. Feraheme may also face competition from generic IV iron replacement products that could further limit sales. Currently, AMAG is involved in a patent litigation with Novartis’ generic arm, Sandoz, for Feraheme. However, in June 2018, the FDA accepted AMAGs new drug application for bremelanotide and the company is initiating programs to educate healthcare providers about diagnosing hypoactive sexual desire disorder. Loss estimates of the cmpany have remained stable ahead of the Q3 earnings. " (10/5/2018)
- 2. Cantor Fitzgerald analysts commented, ": We reiterate the Neutral rating and adjust our PT to $18 (from $17) for AMAG stock. With the commercial potential of Intrarosa still unproven and the approvability of bremelanotide unknown, we believe investors will view the Makena franchise as the most significant supporter of share price value, particularly now that the CBR business is being divested. We suppose a bullish outlook could prevail over the near- to intermediate-term if Makena holds its own and no evidence emerges that Intrarosa or bremelanotide could disappoint expectations. We believe that the set up for 2019 has to be decidedly positive for the stock to perform well over the next 12-18 months absent, of course, transformational business activities." (8/3/2018)
