- 2. Cantor Fitzgerald analysts commented, "We rate Ocular Therapeutix (OCUL) 12-month price target of $22 per share. Ocular focuses on a platform of sustained drug-delivered therapies for the treatment of ocular diseases and conditions. Ocular’s lead development product, DEXTENZA, is an intracanalicular dexamethasone insert therapy for the treatment of post-surgical ocular pain. We believe Ocular could receive FDA approval in 2018. Valuation Summary We arrive at our 12-month price target of $22/share by assessing the after-tax, risk- adjusted NPV of future cash flows from DEXTENZA." (7/19/2018)

The company plans to apply for a pass-through reimbursement status (C code) for Dextenza. With bundled pricing of cataract surgery, Dextenza should be priced above $480 per dose according to CMS guidelines, in our view.
