Wedbush reiterates an 'Outperform' on Momenta Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ: MNTA), PT $27.

Wedbush analyst says, "Our fair value of $27 is calculated using a sum-of-parts analysis, applying a 30% annual discount to our peak annual sales estimate for M-Enoxaparin in DVT and ACS, M356 in Relapse-Remitting MS, and M118 in ACS, incorporating a 1-10 multiple for each based on stage of clinical risk. We use a probability weighted valuation for M-Enoxaparin, placing a 75% chance that another generic version will be approved in the future. Therefore, we believe significant upside to our fair value exists should M-Enox remain the sole generic on the market. In any event, however, we predict that M356 (generic Copaxone) will ultimately become MNTA’s most valuable drug. Given its best-in-class platform for copying the extraordinarily valuable field of complex therapeutics (including biologics), MNTA remains one of our favorite long-term picks."
