What are Wall Street analysts saying about Jazz Pharmaceuticals stock?
Here are some recent quotes from research analysts about Jazz Pharmaceuticals stock:
- 1. According to Zacks Investment Research, "After lower-than-expected sales in 2017, Jazz’ sleep disorder drug, Xyrem witnessed improved volume trends in the first half. Management seems confident that Xyrem will continue to generate volume growth in 2018 and beyond. Jazz’s lead pipeline candidate JZP-110 complements its existing sleep disorder portfolio. Jazz is also actively evaluating business development deals to enhance its product line and pipeline. Shares of the company have outperformed the industry so far this year. However, Jazz has been facing supply constraints for its leukemia drug, Erwinaze, due to constrained manufacturing capacity. These supply challenges are expected to continue in 2018. Meanwhile, its newest drug Vyxeos performed below expectations and Jazz lowered its full-year outlook. Earnings estimates have gone down ahead of the company’s Q3 earnings release. The company has a mixed record of earnings surprises in recent quarters." (11/13/2018)
- 2. Cantor Fitzgerald analysts commented, ": We reiterate our Overweight rating and we are lowering our PT by $2 to $201 for JAZZ stock. We continue to believe management has positioned the company well for a solid financial performance in a post-Xyrem" world through innovation and diversification. We believe NT stock performance will be driven by potential FDA approval of solriamfetol and JZP-258 data in narcolepsy." (11/6/2018)
- 3. HC Wainwright analysts commented, "We highlighted after 1Q that management seemed to be taking a decidedly conservative approach to guidance this year, and this quarter we again see a healthy beat with little or no full-year raise. We still think guidance is a bit conservative (we’re near the high end on REV and EPS), but besides a small revenue drag from the sale of Prialt, unfortunately there was a key underperformer holding Jazz guidance back: Vyxeos. Jazz’s newest growth driver, from its most recent acquisition, only grew modestly QoQ, missed consensus for the second straight quarter, and Jazz lowered the product’s 2018 guidance 12% at the midpoint to $115-135M." (8/9/2018)
- 4. Mizuho analysts commented, "We reiterate our Neutral rating and $150 PT post-1Q:18 beat & improved guidance. We think investors may now be concerned about deal risk in the name." (5/9/2018)
