In a report released yesterday, Geulah Livshits from Chardan Capital reiterated a Buy rating on Replimune Group Inc (REPL), with a price target of $28. The company’s shares closed last Monday at $10.05, close to its 52-week low of $8.88.
Livshits observed:
“We expect the 4Q19 data from the phase I portion, potentially at the Cancer (SITC) annual meeting in November, will focus on safety and early signals of immune activity of RP1 as a single agent and in the combo setting. Per management, the company plans to accumulate data from the phase II cohorts over the next ~6 months and begin reporting on a per cohort basis over 2020 (consistent with prior timelines). RP1 trial, a registration-directed randomized controlled study in cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (CSCC) +/- Regeneron’s (unrated) anti-PD1 cemiplimab is expected to begin in August. Replimune ended the quarter with $120.8 mm in cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments. This provides the company with a cash runway into calendar year 2H21.”
