Ram Selvaraju has given his Buy rating due to a combination of factors that highlight the potential of Anavex Life Sciences. The company reported having sufficient cash reserves to sustain operations for approximately four years, which provides a solid financial foundation. Additionally, the company’s net loss was narrower than anticipated, signaling better-than-expected financial performance.
Another key factor is the potential entry into the European market for their drug blarcamesine, which targets Alzheimer’s disease. With a significant patient population in Europe and possible regulatory approval by the end of the year, this presents a lucrative opportunity. The analyst also considers the potential for further regulatory submissions in other regions, contingent on European approval, as a positive aspect. The valuation based on discounted cash flow analysis supports the target price of $42 per share, despite acknowledging risks such as negative clinical data and approval setbacks.
