Derek Archila has given his Buy rating due to a combination of factors surrounding Arvinas Holding Company. Despite the negative impact of Pfizer’s decision to halt certain combination studies, Archila sees potential in the company’s vepdeg monotherapy for second-line and beyond treatments. The management’s estimates suggest a significant market opportunity with a portion of patients having an ESR1 mutation, and the potential for vepdeg to capture a substantial market share.
Additionally, Arvinas’ financial position is strengthened by a significant cash reserve and cost-reduction strategies, which extend its financial runway. The company’s early-stage programs, such as the ARV-102’s LRRK2 degrader, show promising early data, adding to the long-term investment appeal. Archila believes that the current stock price, trading at a significant discount to cash, does not fully reflect the potential of these developments, justifying a Buy rating.
Archila covers the Healthcare sector, focusing on stocks such as Rhythm Pharmaceuticals, Incyte, and Ascendis Pharma. According to TipRanks, Archila has an average return of 5.0% and a 44.99% success rate on recommended stocks.
In another report released today, Barclays also maintained a Buy rating on the stock with a $16.00 price target.
