Our price target of $24/share is based on an equally weighted composite of: (a) $23.83/share, as a 35x multiple of taxed and diluted $5.60 discounted back to FY19 at 18% (in line with the expected P/E multiple and discount rate of an early development stage biotechnology company); and (b) an NPV of $24/share (discounted cash flow analysis using a 15.5% discount rate and 2% growth rate, in line with the expected discount and growth parameters of an early development-stage biotechnology company).”
