JonesTrading analyst Soumit Roy has maintained their bullish stance on PRME stock, giving a Buy rating on March 4.
Soumit Roy has given his Buy rating due to a combination of factors related to Prime Medicine, Inc.’s strategic advancements and financial outlook. The company is expected to have a pivotal year in 2025 as it aims to demonstrate the efficacy of its prime editing technology in humans through the initial data from the Phase 1/2 trial for Chronic Granulomatous Disease (CGD). This data is anticipated to provide insights into dose levels, editing effectiveness, and clinical outcomes, which are crucial for validating their technology.
Additionally, there is growing investor interest in Prime Medicine’s preclinical programs for Wilson Disease and Cystic Fibrosis, which hold potential for long-term value creation. The company’s focus on business development and its strong cash position, projected to sustain operations into the first half of 2026, further support the positive outlook. The valuation, based on a combination of discounted cash flow, net present value, and price-to-earnings ratios, suggests a price target of $14, reflecting the potential contributions from their programs and cash reserves.
According to TipRanks, Roy is an analyst with an average return of -23.0% and a 17.53% success rate. Roy covers the Healthcare sector, focusing on stocks such as Chimerix, Precision BioSciences, and Oric Pharmaceuticals.
