Mizuho Securities Thinks Viveve Medical Inc’s Stock is Going to Recover


Mizuho Securities analyst Difei Yang maintained a Buy rating on Viveve Medical Inc (VIVE) today and set a price target of $4. The company’s shares closed yesterday at $1.42, close to its 52-week low of $1.26.

Yang observed:

“We attended Viveve’s investor event on stress urinary incontinence (SUI) yesterday in NY. The event was well attended and informative (see our key takeaways below). Positive 12-month data from the SUI feasibility study was highlighted showing that 72% of patients experienced an overall mean improvement of 56% in the 1-hr pad weight test at 12-months. With a recently completed $18.8 mil common stock offering, we believe Viveve has sufficient cash to reach the important LIBERATE INTL 6-month readout in early 3Q19. We expect results from this trial will be an important catalyst for the shares.”

According to TipRanks.com, Yang is a 5-star analyst with an average return of 16.6% and a 45.7% success rate. Yang covers the Healthcare sector, focusing on stocks such as Nightstar Therapeutics Limited, Alder Biopharmaceuticals, and Audentes Therapeutics.
