What are Wall Street analysts saying about Seattle Genetics stock?
Here are some recent quotes from research analysts about Seattle Genetics stock:
- 1. HC Wainwright analysts commented, "We reach a price target of $98 after adjusting new corporate tax rate, cash, and other program updates. The price target is based on a sum-of-parts NPV-DCF ($58.7 HL + $3.52 relapsed sALCL+ $11.8 frontline PTCL + $20.7 platform Seattle Genetics Inc. October 26, 2018 H.C. WAINWRIGHT & CO. EQUITY RESEARCH 2+ $3.1 cash). Key risks to achievement of our target price include trial failures, safety issues, regulatory delays, competition, and dilutive financing." (10/26/2018)
- 2. According to Zacks Investment Research, "Seattle Genetics' sole marketed drug, Adcetris, is performing well since its launch. The label expansion in frontline Hodgkin lymphoma, pcALCL, CD30-expressing MF and T-cell lymphoma is encouarging. The FDA approval of Adcetris in combination with chemotherapy for the treatment of stage III or IV classical Hodgkin lymphoma (cHL) will further boost sales. The company’s collaboration with Takeda for the global development and commercialization of Adcetris shows promise. However, its heavy dependence solely on Adcetris for growth has its inherent risks. The recent label expansion of Merck’s Keytruda in the lymphoma indication is likely to increase competition. Though the company has multiple candidates in its pipeline, most are in early stages of development. Meanwhile, the company’s shares have outperformed the industry so far this year." (10/23/2018)
- 3. JPMorgan Chase & Co. analysts commented, "With SGEN’s recent strength (up ~50% over the last 3 mos), we’ve been asked frequently – what would we need to see from Adcetris to maintain this momentum? In our view, this question should be more than adequately answered following a big beat this quarter with Adcetris sales coming in at $122.4M vs guidance of $105-110M and consensus of $107M. Additionally, management provided 3Q guidance of $130-135M vs cons of $115M. Coupled with continued pipeline progress (completion of enrollment in the pivotal cohort of EV-201 and first patient dosed in innovaTV 204/207, as previously disclosed), as well as narrowing of guidance for E-2 (now early 4Q18) we see this as another productive quarter on many fronts."
