Wedbush reiterated an Outperform rating on Halozyme Therapeutics (NASDAQ: HALO) and raised its price target to $17.00 (from $13.00).

Halozyme Therapeutics remains in Wedbush’s BEST IDEA’S LIST, and analysts have a bullish view of the company's potential in the growing insulin pump market with the Hylenex delivery system.

"Hylenex for insulin pumps offers several advantages to the current standard of care, including faster onset and more physiologic response," said analyst Gregory R. Wade, Ph.D.

"Halozyme has made significant efforts towards commercialization of Hylenex for insulin pumps, we anticipate insight into timing to be the next significant catalyst for this opportunity," added Wade.

He thinks Halozyme may begin to derive revenues from the Hylenex insulin product in the fourth quarter of 2013.
