Nuvation Bio price target maintained at $6 by Citizens JMP

Citizens JMP analyst reiterated a Market Outperform rating and $6.00 price target on Nuvation Bio Inc (NYSE:NUVB) stock Friday, despite the stock’s recent 27% decline over the past week. Trading at $1.81, the stock remains below analyst consensus targets ranging from $5 to $10. The firm maintained its position following Nuvation’s detailed presentation of launch plans for its cancer treatment IBTROZI.

IBTROZI (taletrectinib), approved for adults with locally advanced or metastatic ROS1-positive NSCLC, will be priced at $29,844 per month. The company addressed questions regarding the FDA label during its presentation.

Nuvation management expressed confidence in IBTROZI’s competitive profile compared to currently FDA-approved ROS1 TKIs, citing what they described as best-in-class efficacy, duration, and safety.

Citizens JMP updated its financial model to incorporate the announced pricing structure for IBTROZI. The $6 price target remains derived from discounted cash flow analysis.

The firm’s maintained Market Outperform rating suggests continued optimism about Nuvation Bio’s market position following the IBTROZI launch details.
