Here are some recent quotes from research analysts about Intersect ENT stock:
- 1. According to Zacks Investment Research, "Intersect ENT, Inc. is a commercial drug-device company. The Company's initial products, PROPEL and PROPEL mini, are drug-eluting implants for use in patients with chronic sinusitis. It offers products and therapies for ear, nose, and throat surgeons to improve treatment for their patients with chronic diseases. Intersect ENT, Inc. is headquartered in Menlo Park, California. " (1/22/2019)
- 2. Northland Securities analysts commented, "We had specifically referenced this drug and these Phase-III studies as risks on the horizon for SINUVA in our note dated 10/03/18. The Phase – III data raise many questions in our mind about SINUVA outlook and the competitive landscape. Caution is warranted vis-a-vis SINUVA. Key Points The f/u for the 2-trials was 24-wks, Dupilumab + mometasone furoate (Nasonex) spray 51% reduction in nasal congestion / obstruction severity vs. 15% for the control arm of mometasone furoate spray in SINUS-24 trial. The numbers stood at 57% and 19% for SINUS-52 trial." (10/17/2018)
- 3. BTIG Research analysts commented, "Following this morning’s early earnings announcement, management discussed the issues underlying the weak report and reduced sales guidance. Most troubling to us was that instead of SINUVA being easily available via the specialty pharmacy channel, many payors are requiring doctors to either use a payor-affiliated specialty pharmacy partner or to use a buy-and-bill approach. This means doctors must pay to acquire SINUVA, then bill for it and hope they are paid back. While XENT mgmt believes this hurdle can be overcome by showing reluctant docs proof of payment and expanding the salesforce, we think it will be more difficult to change the way ENTs operate. We cut our SINUVA sales estimate for 2H and beyond while also dampening modeled growth rates for PROPEL." (8/2/2018)
- 4. Canaccord Genuity analysts commented, "We remain buyers ahead of trial data coming up in 4Q18 We believe the stock’s pullback presents opportunity ahead of a catalyst-rich period that is coming up in the near to medium-term. Specifically, we await results on long- term safety of rimegepant (acute treatment of migraine) and a Phase 3 trial on the orally-dissolving tablet (ODT) formulation of rimegepant. Given the behavior of the molecule in two Phase 3 trials so far (see here) and a validated mechanism (Allergan also reported positive results for its ubrogepant; see here), we expect these results to support a potential filing of rimegepant in 2019. a more detailed list of BHVN-related catalysts. We also continue to believe that rimegepant could be a meaningful player in the market for the acute treatment of migraine, and we are reiterating our BUY on BHVN." (8/1/2018)
