What are Wall Street analysts saying about Impax Laboratories stock?
Here are some recent quotes from research analysts about Impax Laboratories stock:
- 1. According to Zacks Investment Research, "Impax missed estimates for both the counts in the fourth quarter of 2017. The company faces competition in the brand product market from Parkinson’s disease and CNS disorder focused large pharmaceutical companies. Impax’s Generics segment underperformed in 2017, due to significant pricing erosion complemented by erosion in volume. However, the company’s epinephrine auto-injector sales have picked up. Meanwhile, Impax is taking steps to reduce costs and improve efficiencies, which may save an estimated $130 million by the end of 2019. The merger with Amneal Pharma is a positive for Impax as it will have a diverse pipeline with more than 300 products under review or late stage development. Shares of the company outperformed the industry in a year’s time." (3/27/2018)
