What are Wall Street analysts saying about Audentes Therapeutics stock?
Here are some recent quotes from research analysts about Audentes Therapeutics stock:
- 1. HC Wainwright analysts commented, "Our Buy rating and $33 price target on shares of Audentes are based on sum-of-the-parts analysis of the company’s pipeline. We value the XLMTM commercial opportunity at $17/share, and CN at $16/share, each of which are based on a 5x P/ S multiple on peak sales of roughly $579M (XLMTM peak sales of about $300M and CN peak sales of approximately $279M in FY2025), discounted at 10% over a 7-year period. Our 5x P/S multiple is below the lower end of historic M&A within the sector (typically in the range of 7-9x)." (11/7/2018)
- 2. Mizuho analysts commented, "We do not see earnings as the best indicator of value for an early-stage biotech. Importantly, progress continues to be highly encouraging on the AT-132 program. Audentes is expected to meet with the FDA and EMA in 4Q18 to discuss development plans and a potential registrational pathway for AT132. An update is expected in 1Q19, which could be an important catalyst. Two other pipeline products; in Criggler-Najjar and Pompe disease need further work (more below). Finally, a new program targeting a large neuromuscular disease remains to be disclosed, which could add upside to the shares as well." (11/7/2018)
- 3. According to Zacks Investment Research, "Audentes Therapeutics, Inc. is a biotechnology company which focused on developing and commercializing gene therapy products for patients suffering from serious, life-threatening rare diseases. The company's product pipeline consists of AT132 for the treatment of X-linked myotubular myopathy; AT342 for the treatment of crigler-najjar syndrome type 1; AT307 for the treatment of the CASQ2 subtype of catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia and AT982 for the treatment of pompe disease, which are in pre-clinical trial stage. Audentes Therapeutics, Inc. is based in San Francisco, California. " (8/9/2018)
- 4. Chardan Capital analysts commented, "We initiate coverage on Neutral rating (PT$35): While we see the company’s initial phase I/II results with AAV-based gene therapies (GT) as promising, we see more constrained market opportunities due to small patient populations. Audentes has developed 4 assets to target rare/ultra-rare diseases of the liver, heart, or skeletal muscle. The lead product candidate, AT132, is an AAV8-based GT being tested in the phase I/II ASPIRO trial (NCT03199469) as a treatment for X-linked myotubular myopathy (XLMTM). The 2nd clinical stage asset is AT342, an AAV8-based GT in the phase I/II VALENS trial (NCT03223194) for Crigler-Najjar syndrome (CN). 2 additional products, AT982 for Pompe disease and AT307 for CASQ2-CPVT, are in preclinical development."
