Brean Murray Carret & Co. maintains a 'Buy' on ViroPharma (NASDAQ: VPHM) price target of $37.00.
Brean analyst said, "VPHM received another complete response letter on their Cinryze industrial scale production line. The FDA specified three concerns related to cleaning validation, of which one will require unplanned activity to redress. Based on the company's desription of the concerns and guidance that no technical issues need to be addressed, we believe that VPHM will receive approval this year, providing the company with more than adequate capacity to supply growth beyond 2012."
