Jefferies analyst Michael Yee upgraded Aligos Therapeutics (ALGS) to Buy from Hold with a price target of $3, up from $2.50. While 2022 was a challenging year, Aligos continues to work through its various pipeline assets, Yee tells investors in a research note. Most importantly, the stock is at a $40M market capitalization and a "promising" nonalcoholic steatohepatitis pill, says the analyst. He believes the asset was recently derisked by "very positive" Madrigal Pharmaceuticals (MDGL) Phase III fibrosis data.
