Mon, 05 Oct 2026 06:57:26 -0400

Citi analyst Samantha Semenkow reiterated a Buy rating and $151.00 price target on Nektar Therapeutics (NASDAQ: NKTR).

Semenkow noted that Nektar shares are trading at an enterprise value of approximately $800 million, which she said trails peers primarily valued on atopic dermatitis, including Kymera Therapeutics (NASDAQ: KYMR) at $8.8
