Goldman Sachs initiated coverage on Anacor Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ: ANAC) with a Neutral rating and a price target of $36.00.
Analyst Gary Nachman said, "We see ANAC as a very solid new product story and an attractive name in dermatology, an ideal space for specialty pharma. Our physician surveys support strong uptake for lead product Kerydin for onychomychosis, and we believe AN2728 for atopic dermatitis should be even more promising with Phase 3 data expected in 3Q15. These are both very sizable market opportunities with significant unmet need, which could make ANAC an attractive acquisition target given a lot of consolidation in dermatology. However, we are sensitive to valuation at current levels with the stock up 105% in the last five months and would look for a better entry point."
