What are Wall Street analysts saying about Eagle Pharmaceuticals stock?
Here are some recent quotes from research analysts about Eagle Pharmaceuticals stock:
- 1. Cantor Fitzgerald analysts commented, ". Post 4Q18, we are reiterating our Neutral rating and our 12- month price target on EGRX shares of $58. Pipeline setbacks in 2018 have created an overhang on the visibility of near term growth drivers for EGRX, which keeps us on the sidelines for now. Given the current visibility, we believe EGRX stock remains fairly valued at current levels. That said EGRX’s current business continues to perform well and the company is advancing Ryanodex for nerve agent exposure and acute radiation syndrome, both of which we believe have the potential to get into the strategic national stockpile, if successful."
