Sarepta price target lowered to $200 from $226 at RBC Capital

RBC Capital analyst Brian Abrahams lowered the firm’s price target on Sarepta to $200 from $226 but keeps an Outperform rating on the shares. The analyst cites the company disclosing that the FDA has shifted its stance following a late-cycle review and decided to hold an AdCom for Sarepta’s lead DMD gene therapy ‘9001. While the decision may be due to the FDA’s reorganized leadership wanting to set a precedent for efforts to speed paths for gene therapies, it may also signal that the agency is still seeking to get more comfortable with microdystrophin as a surrogate, adding some risk to the approvability and timelines, RBC Capital tells investors in a research note. The firm contends however that it still sees many paths for ‘9001 to "get over the line" and believes that Sarepta shares overly discount this potential.
