Progenics Gets a Buy Rating from Cantor Fitzgerald


Cantor Fitzgerald analyst Mara Goldstein maintained a Buy rating on Progenics (NASDAQ: PGNX) yesterday and set a price target of $15. The company’s shares closed on Friday at $7.23.

Goldstein said:

“. We maintain an Overweight rating and 12-month PT of $15 on the shares of PGNX. Although we like the rare disease opportunity for AZEDRA (PDUFA 7/30), we also like the PSMA-targeted pipeline for prostate cancer. Moreover, what we have come to appreciate in the PGNX story is the optionality of the pipeline, which extends to the potential for out-licensing, financing and clinical development.”
