Arbutus Biopharma (ABUS) Stock Forecast & Price Target
Arbutus Biopharma (ABUS) Analyst Ratings
Bulls say
Arbutus Biopharma Corp has made significant strides in its clinical development, particularly with imdusiran, which has shown steep and durable declines in HBV DNA, achieving faster suppression rates compared to standard therapy. During the latest financial quarter, Arbutus successfully reduced its R&D expenses by 65%, indicating effective management of operational costs as the company focuses on its promising therapeutics, including AB-101. Additionally, the company recognized a notable revenue increase to $10.7 million for the quarter, up from $1.7 million in the same period of the previous year, showcasing growth and potential market demand for its innovative approaches to treating chronic hepatitis B virus.
Bears say
The negative outlook on Arbutus Biopharma's stock is driven by several fundamental factors. Competition in recruiting patients for clinical programs targeting chronic HBV may hinder the company's progress, affecting its ability to advance therapies. Furthermore, there is a significant risk that the company's RNAi, capsid assembly inhibitors, and HBV RNA destabilizer therapies may fail to meet clinical efficacy endpoints, raising concerns about the viability of its therapeutic pipeline.
