Barclays maintains an 'Overweight' on Halozyme Therapeutics (NASDAQ: HALO) price target of $15.00.
Analyst, Ying Huang, attended the American Diabetes Association (ADA) conference this past week in which Halozyme presented data for several studies, most regarding diabetes.
Huang said, "PH20 results appear promising; positive reception from physicians. We note increasing interest in HALO's proprietary insulin program, with key opinion leaders highlighting PH20 as a promising technology."
Huang thinks the next step for the company if is to enter a strategic partnership with Novo Nordisk (NYSE: NVO), Saonfi (NYSE: SNY) or Eli Lilly (NYSE: LLY) for the prandial insulin side, and enter a strategic partnership with the dominant insulin pump manufacturer (Medtronics (NYSE: MDT), who owns ~70% market share) on the pump insulin side.
