Leerink Partners raises Amarin stock price target to $12 on strong Q3

Investing.com - Leerink Partners has raised its price target on Amarin Corporation (NASDAQ:AMRN) to $12.00 from $10.00 while maintaining a Market Perform rating following the company’s third-quarter 2025 results. The stock, currently trading at $16.81, appears undervalued according to InvestingPro’s Fair Value model, despite experiencing a significant 13.6% decline over the past week.

Amarin reported total net revenue of $49.7 million for the quarter, representing a 17% year-over-year increase. This growth was primarily driven by stronger U.S. performance, where revenue reached $40.9 million, up 34% from the same period last year due to improved net pricing and volume gains from regained pharmacy benefit manager exclusivity.

Operating expenses decreased significantly, falling 20% year-over-year to $33.3 million, with selling, general and administrative expenses down 47% following the company’s restructuring efforts. Management reiterated its goal of achieving positive free cash flow in 2026 and highlighted Amarin’s debt-free balance sheet with approximately $290 million in cash. InvestingPro data confirms this strong liquidity position with a healthy current ratio of 3.26, indicating liquid assets substantially exceed short-term obligations. While not profitable over the last twelve months, analysts tracked by InvestingPro expect the company to turn profitable this year.

European revenue remained essentially flat at $4.1 million as Amarin continues its transition to a partnered model with Recordati, while Rest of World revenue declined to $3.6 million due to normal quarterly variability in partnership supply dynamics.

Leerink Partners noted that a recent FDA labeling update for fenofibrate could represent a tailwind for Vascepa, as the update revised fenofibrate’s indication to reflect a lack of cardiovascular benefit and highlighted safety concerns when co-administered with statins.
