Global Hunter Securities initiates coverage on Vical (NASDAQ: VICL) with a Buy. PT $9.00.

Global analyst says, "With the announcement of partnering TransVax development in hematopoietic stem cell transplantation with Astellas, Vical made tremendous progress advancing its clinical programs in 2011. Allovectin continues to be the key value driver, which we anticipate will position the company with the leading melanoma therapy and a blockbuster opportunity in the 2013 timeframe. We anticipate the company will further monetize its proprietary adjuvant, Vaxfectin, which has shown versatility and potential for use in enhancing the ability of vaccines to harness the immune response against multiple pathogens. With the HSV-2 vaccine also poised for high value partnering, Vical’s clinical programs have strong momentum going into 2012."
