- 1. HC Wainwright analysts commented, "Valuation and risks to price target achievement. We reiterate our Buy rating and $22 price target. We point out that the large delta between the current share price and our price target is driven by the company’s relatively low share count. Further, we believe that the current share price does not reflect, despite the low patient numbers, the ability of FCX-007 to address RDEB patients’ needs, as well as the accelerated potential from a regulatory standpoint, including a Priority Review Voucher (PRV)."
