Canaccord Genuity reiterates a 'Buy' on Trius Therapeutics (NASDAQ: TSRX) price target of $12.00.
Canaccord analyst, George Farmer, said, "Per management and supported by recent SEC filings, we believe the TSRX 11.3% share decline last Friday (vs. 0.05% NBI decline) on unusually high volume (~700K shares vs. ~125K 3m average) was triggered primarily per terms of an insider’s 10b5-1 plan resulting in a 3.6M share distribution to limited partners. As we understand from management conversation, about 20% of this holding went to a partner(s) who liquidated in the open market, resulting in significant share price pressure. Management believes that related selling could be almost complete and assures of pipeline progress integrity."
"We recognize a fortuitous entry point following VC share distribution and subsequent sale of a large share block last Friday."
