Baird analyst Brian Skorney noted Mylan's (MYL) EpiPen scrutiny has resuscitated the drug price furor just as the biotech sector was approaching its yearly highs and M&A in the space began to pick up. The analyst believes investors should be focused on new, innovative products, as they are somewhat more insulated from criticism than older products benefiting from ambiguous IP or manufacturing/supply chain constraints.

Scotiabank raised the firm's price target on BioMarin to $85 from $83 and keeps a Sector Perform rating on the shares following model adjustments. While the company's enzyme business remains stable, in-line Voxzogo results and a struggling Roctavian franchise has led the firm to maintain its rating on the stock.

Wedbush analyst Laura Chico raised the firm's price target on Biogen to $215 from $213 and keeps a Neutral rating on the shares. It remains early days for newly launching products like Skyclarys, Leqembi and Zurzuvae, the firm notes. That being said, it is encouraging to start to see revenue growth for Leqembi and continued growth for Skyclarys. Wedbush continues to see a gap between the newly launching products and earlier-stage development programs that will need to be addressed. However, larger-scale BD deals are likely easier to complete in 2025.
