BofA Securities analyst Jason Gerberry maintains $Alkermes (ALKS.US)$ with a hold rating.
According to TipRanks data, the analyst has a success rate of 46.6% and a total average return of 1.9% over the past year.
Furthermore, according to the comprehensive report, the opinions of $Alkermes (ALKS.US)$'s main analysts recently are as follows:
Alkermes has delivered a Q3 performance that aligns with forecasts while maintaining guidance for 2024. The primary attention during the earnings discussion centered around projections that 2025 EBITDA will exceed $200M, contrasting with a general expectation of $400M. This discrepancy in EBITDA relative to market projections seems to be influenced by the diminishing of high-margin royalty revenues, and to a smaller degree, elevated expenditure.
Alkermes' Q3 results exhibited a mix of positive and negative aspects, yet overall aligned with expectations based on the current commercial portfolio. The company is demonstrating a commitment to intensify and concentrate investments in ALKS-2680, along with harnessing the broad possibilities presented by its orexin-2 receptor agonist pipeline. Despite the near-term effects moderating profit levels, the prospects for value generation from ALKS-2680 remain promising.
