There’s a lot to be optimistic about in the Healthcare sector as 2 analysts just weighed in on Nabriva (NBRV) and Intec Pharma Ltd (NTEC) with bullish sentiments.

Nabriva (NBRV)

H.C. Wainwright analyst Ed Arce maintained a Buy rating on Nabriva today and set a price target of $7. The company’s shares closed yesterday at $2.20.

Arce said:

“We employ a rNPV valuation model, driven by U.S. sales of: (1) lefamulin for CABP through 2028 (peak sales $460M); and (2) CONTEPO for cUTI through 2028 (peak sales $205M). We utilize a 15.0% discount rate for all cash flows, with zero terminal value after 2028, to arrive at our $7 price target (representing risk-adjusted per share values of about $6.50 for lefamulin and about $0.50 for CONTEPO). Risks to the attainment of our PT include failure to obtain FDA approval, unforeseen safety and/or tolerability issues, commercial sales trajectory meaningfully below then consensus expectations, and the dilution to current shareholders from additional equity offering(s).”
