“: We are reiterating our Overweight rating and our 12- month price target of $90 ahead of the company’s R&D day October 30, 2018. We recently launched coverage on the name and are discussing what we think will be at the company’s R&D day on Tues. At the R&D day, we are anticipating additional information on the company’s plans to address both diastolic and systolic heart disease. The company also notes that we will get clinical data from its mavacamten and MYK-491 programs. We expect incremental data from MYK-491, but we are not expecting the Ph1b data at the R&D day (guidance is by year-end).”
