Canaccord Genuity maintains a 'Buy' on Dendreon (NASDAQ: DNDN) price target raiesd from $16 to $18.
Analyst, George Farmer, said, "We maintain our rating and raise our target as a negative FDA stance on Amgen’s (Nasdaq: AMGN) XGEVA de-risks the outlook for DNDN’s prostate cancer vaccine, Provenge."
"Encouraging December sales in the face of holiday conflicts had justified our previously bumped-up 2012 $426M sales estimate. Our new 2012 $458M estimate assumes near-term acceleration of “same-store-sales” fueled by higher physician perception, although we caution that negative practitioner impressions of logistics and cost still lingers. Nevertheless, $500M in sales this year – a management-declared cash flow break-even point – is not far fetched, in our view."
