Chattopadhyay noted:

“Our 12-month, $18 price target on shares of ImmunoGen is based on a 13-year DCF-driven, sum-of-the-parts analysis. Our DCF analysis is based on: beta of 1.75, terminal growth rate of 0.5%, risk premium of 4.93%, calculated WACC of 12.0%, and tax rate of 12% beginning in FY 2028. Note, our $18 price target is leveraged on the outcome of the mirvetuximab soravtansine’s Phase 3 FORWARD I study, which represents approximately 89% of our target (risk-adjusted NPV of $16 per share). Key risks to our valuation include: emergence of ADC-related safety concerns, clinical, regulatory, and financials risks. ImmunoGen, Inc.”
