Piros commented:

“: We reiterate our OW rating and 12-month $35 PT on ALDX following 1Q19 earnings. Aldeyra is making monumental progress across its late stage programs. We believe Aldeyra is underappreciated, given the company has late stage programs that target large market opportunities. Aldeyra has already established proof of concept in numerous late stage programs. In light of the recent Xiidra acquisition, we believe Aldeyra’s dry eye disease program could become of interest to other ophthalmology-focused companies.”
