BioCryst Pharmaceuticals (BCRX) Stock Forecast & Price Target
BioCryst Pharmaceuticals (BCRX) Analyst Ratings
Bulls say
BioCryst Pharmaceuticals Inc. is experiencing significant growth, with Orladeyo accounting for an increasing share of global sales, rising to 13.9% in 4Q24 compared to 11.4% in 3Q24, and a year-over-year revenue increase of 37%. The positive physician sentiment, with 59% now likely to prescribe Orladeyo to more patients, combined with management's increased revenue guidance for 2025 to $535M-$550M, suggests strong ongoing demand for the drug. Additionally, favorable reimbursement dynamics and the potential benefits from the Inflation Reduction Act are expected to enhance accessibility for patients, further supporting BioCryst’s outlook for achieving $1 billion in peak worldwide sales for Orladeyo.
Bears say
BioCryst Pharmaceuticals Inc. faces a negative outlook due to persistently high operational losses, including a reported net loss of $88.9 million for FY24, and anticipated continued losses as profitability remains several years away. Additionally, the first quarter of 2024 is projected to witness flat to declining sales for Orladeyo, attributed to a significant portion of patients undergoing annual reauthorization processes, which could adversely impact revenue forecasts. Compounding these challenges are risks related to the potential failure of clinical trials, regulatory approvals, and uncertainties surrounding market opportunities, further weighing on the company's valuation and overall investment thesis.
