Wells Fargo upgraded Cumberland Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ: CPIX) from Market Perform to Outperform, price target range $9-$11.

Wells analyst says, "With IP position for Acetadote likely solidified for the foreseeable future (2025), we believe management is ready to reassess its marketing priorities and invest behind Acetadote, instead of continuing on the potentially futile path of driving Caldolor growth. Due largely to the failed Caldolor launch, CPIX shares are trading below their intrinsic value, as calculated by any typical valuation metric, in our view. Rearranging its marketing to make Acetadote the priority could drive meaningful share price appreciation."
