In a report released today, Joseph Pantginis from H.C. Wainwright reiterated a Buy rating on Rigel (RIGL), with a price target of $8. The company’s shares closed yesterday at $2.19, close to its 52-week low of $1.96.
Pantginis wrote:
“Valuation and impediments to achieving price target. We reiterate our Buy rating and $8.00 price target. Our price target is based on our clinical net present value (NPV) model, which derives its value from Tavalisse without any current contribution from pipeline assets. This model allows us to flex multiple assumptions affecting a drug’s potential commercial profile. Factors which could impede reaching our price target include failed or inconclusive clinical trials or inability of the company to secure adequate funding to progress its drugs through the development pathway.”
