What are Wall Street analysts saying about Sarepta Therapeutics stock?
Here are some recent quotes from research analysts about Sarepta Therapeutics stock:
- 1. HC Wainwright analysts commented, "Our $267 price target is derived from a risk-adjusted (does not include CMT or Sanfilippo A) DCF analysis and is based on: beta of 1.42, terminal growth rate of 0.5%, risk premium of 4.93%, calculated WACC of 7.4%, and tax rate of 15% beginning in FY 2024." (1/4/2019)
- 2. According to Zacks Investment Research, "Sarepta's sole marketed drug Exondys 51 has witnessed impressive growth so far this year. Sarepta is also focused on reimbursement programs for better accessibility of the drug. The company’s collaboration agreements with Summit Pharmaceuticals and Catabasis as well as its own follow-on exon-skipping and gene therapy pipeline candidates represent the most comprehensive approach to treat DMD. Meanwhile, the settlement of the patent litigation with BioMarin removes a major overhang for Sarepta. However, dependence on a single product, Exondys 51, remains a concern. Moreover, approval for Exondys 51 in the EU is likely to be delayed due to negative CHMP opinion. The DMD market is getting competitive as several other companies are developing treatments. Notably, the company’s shares have outperformed the industry in the past year." (1/5/2019)
- 3. Cantor Fitzgerald analysts commented, ": Reiterating our Overweight rating and $217 PT which is 12-month upside of 82% after current weakness. In this report, we discuss our expectations for upcoming pivotal design for the company’s micro-dystrophin program expected before year-end. We think that the regulator-approved design will be in line with Sarepta’s guidance. Bigger picture, Sarepta remains a top franchise pick over 2019, as we think the company still has catalysts beyond micro-dystrophin that are unappreciated by the Street. Key catalysts in 1Q19 will be limb girdle 2E data in first three patients and next-generation PPMO chemistry readout." (11/26/2018)
