Baird reiterated an Outperform rating on NewLink Genetics (NASDAQ: NLNK) and raised its price target to $20.00 (from $17.00).

"Though the quarterly print was uneventful, we continue to like NLNK for its significant pipeline potential, with first HyperAcute Pancreas Phase III interim look in early-2013 – an event that we think brings real un-modeled upside potential as our base case assumes a 2015 approval," said analyst Christopher J. Raymond.

He thinks the stock recent 15 percent pullback offers a compelling entry point in front of the pivotal HyperAcute data next year.
