Here are some recent quotes from research analysts about Regeneron Pharmaceuticals stock:

• 1. Canaccord Genuity analysts commented, "Cara announced this morning that the company has completed an End of Phase 2 mtg with FDA around CR845 in Pruritus associated with Chronic Kidney Disease. We spoke w/ mgmt for an update. Cara plans to initiate one Phase 3 trial of IV CR845 in the U.S. in 4Q17, followed by a second Phase 3 trial in Europe in early 2018. Details on size and design are expected during 3Q17 conference call in a few wks. Although mgmt not providing guidance on timing to top-line results, we believe NDA submission YE19 and launch YE20 still appears feasible." (10/16/2017)
• 2. According to Zacks Investment Research, "With Eylea accounting for the majority of revenues at Regeneron, Regeneron relies heavily on the drug for growth. In the U.S., the company is witnessing increased competitor discounts and rebates. Sub-par performance of the product will hurt the stock as Eylea is Regeneron’s key growth driver. Prospects of PCSK9 inhibitors, a new class of cholesterol-lowering treatments with blockbuster potential, gained instant popularity even before hitting the market. However, sales of Praluent have failed to impress as the drug is facing significant payer utilization management restrictions in the U.S. and limited market access in Europe, which is resulting in a low volume of prescriptions being dispensed. Nevertheless, the approval of new drugs like Kevzara and Dupixent provide a significant boost to the top-line. Shares have outperformed the industry so far in 2017." (10/10/2017)
• 3. Robert W. Baird analysts commented, "nothing to scoff at," Skorney said in his downgrade note. However, investor expectations for a strong performance has "stretched the valuation beyond what is reasonable" based on the initial launch metrics (see Skorney's track record here).In fact, investor expectation shifted from "high" in late April/May to "extraordinary" today, the analyst added. Meanwhile, buy-side analysts may have also gotten ahead of themselves in predicting Dupixent to outperform Novartis' blockbuster therapy, Cosentyx."We believe shares reflect a greater degree of optimism than is warranted," Skorney emphasized. "We continue to believe Dupixent will be a big drug, as reflected by our reiterated target price of $408." (8/8/2017)
• 4. Cowen and Company analysts commented, "REGN reported Q1:17 U.S." (5/5/2017)
• 5. BMO Capital Markets analysts commented, "We raise our price target to $412 but maintain our Market Perform rating on REGN following Dupixent approval in adult atopic dermatitis. While the approval was widely expected and reflects the strength of Dupixent's clinical profile, we believe the $37k gross price (~$30k net) is higher than expected (BMO: ~$25k prior) and could lead to even more aggressive management by payors. Thus, while we have updated our model to reflect Dupixent's actual price, we have slowed our ramp on our expectation for increased access restrictions given the therapy's high price." (3/28/2017)
