Goldman Sachs cuts its price target on Neutral-rated Momenta Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ: MNTA) from $20 to $12 after the approval of Amphastar's generic Lovenox which will compete with the company's own generic Lovenox product.

"With the entrance of a second generic entrant into the Lovenox market, MNTA’s earning power declines dramatically, going from an annual revenue run rate of $320 million-plus to nearly $80 million, and $4.00-plus per share to $0.14-plus per share," the analyst stated.
