Canaccord Genuity maintains a 'Sell' on Seattle Genetics (NASDAQ: SGEN) price target of $11.00.

Analyst, George Farmer, said, "We see a number of factors negatively affecting Adcetris sales performance this year, including a higher gross-net sales adjustment (as guided), a near complete exhaustion of a one-time patient pool treated during the H2/11 launch (as alluded to on the conference call), and treatment duration negatively affected somewhat by a move to stem cell transplantation. Withholding sales guidance creates more uncertainty, in our view, especially since management should have by now an excellent read on demand and typical treatment duration."
