- 1. Cantor Fitzgerald analysts commented, "As investors appreciate the durability and revenue potential of Emergent’s portfolio, we expect upward earnings revisions and multiple expansion to drive the stock higher. Valuation Summary We use a blend of DCF and multiples (EV/EBITDA) analysis to get to our 12-month price target of $75. The Disclosure Section may be found on pages 3 – 5.Valuation We use a blend of DCF and EV/EBITDA to get to our PT of $75." (4/21/2019)
- 2. According to Zacks Investment Research, "Emergent BioSolutions' recent acquisitions of PaxVax and Adapt Pharma have expanded the company’s presence in the public health threats market. Its anthrax vaccine, NuThrax’s regulatory application is under review, with a decision expected in the first half of 2019. We are positive on Emergent’s spin-off of its biosciences business into a separate publicly traded company as it resulted in reduction of the cost structure. Notably, the company derives majority of its revenues from BioThrax sales. Hence, its sole dependence on BioThrax for revenues is a headwind. Moreover, Emergent depends on certain single-source suppliers for key materials and services, which are necessary for manufacturing BioThrax. This, in turn, raises a concern. Shares of the company have underperformed the industry so far this year. Estimates have narrowed ahead of Q1 earnings. Emergent has a mixed record of earnings surprises in the recent quarters."
