H.C. Wainwright analyst Ram Selvaraju reiterated a Buy rating on Acer Therapeutics Inc (ACER) today and set a price target of $55. The company’s shares closed yesterday at $22.58.
Selvaraju noted:
“Valuation methodology, risks, and uncertainties. We value Acer using a composite risk-adjusted net present value (rNPV) approach, which employs a 15% discount rate and 30% effective tax rate across all future cash flows, while ascribing an 85% probability of success to EDSIVO and a 60% and 50% probability of success to MSUD, respectively. This yields a total rNPV of $600M, with $355M coming from EDSIVO and $250M from ACER-001. Assuming approximately 11M fully-diluted shares outstanding as of mid-2019, this translates into a price objective of $55.00 per share.”
According to TipRanks.com, Selvaraju is ranked 0 out of 5 stars with an average return of -13.3% and a 24.1% success rate. Selvaraju covers the Healthcare sector, focusing on stocks such as Biospecifics Technologies Corp, Bausch Health Companies Inc, and Aerpio Pharmaceuticals Inc.
