Baird maintains a 'Neutral' on Biogen (NASDAQ: BIIB) price target raised from $130 to $135.
Analyst, Christopher J. Raymond, said, "BIIB shares are taking a breather today (-1% vs. NBI +0.5%) in response to a Q112 revenue/earnings miss and lukewarm FY12 guidance-raise. That said, we think near-term the stock can continue to work higher on expectations for key 2H12 pipeline events. However, with already huge BG12 launch expectations built-in, and Hemophilia and ALS data readouts more high-risk, we think the stock’s premium valuation makes it more vulnerable should any of these disappoint."
Raises FY13 EPS estimate from $7.30 to $7.63.
