Cytokinetics Poised for Global Growth with MYQORZO Approval and Anticipated Regulatory Milestones

H.C. Wainwright analyst Joseph Pantginis has reiterated their bullish stance on CYTK stock, giving a Buy rating on December 15.

Joseph Pantginis has given his Buy rating due to a combination of factors highlighting Cytokinetics’ promising near-term prospects and global expansion potential. The recent regulatory approval of MYQORZO (aficamten) in China for treating adults with obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (oHCM) marks a significant milestone, as this is the first territory to approve the drug. This approval not only triggers milestone payments from partner Sanofi but also establishes a foundation for a broader international rollout.
Further contributing to the rating is the anticipated regulatory progress in the United States and Europe. The upcoming FDA decision (PDUFA) later this month and the positive opinion from the European Medicines Agency (EMA) suggest strong momentum toward a global market presence for MYQORZO. Cytokinetics’ ongoing efforts to expand commercialization efforts position it favorably for future revenue growth and extended geographic reach, reaffirming Pantginis’ positive outlook on the company’s stock.

Based on the recent corporate insider activity of 144 insiders, corporate insider sentiment is negative on the stock. This means that over the past quarter there has been an increase of insiders selling their shares of CYTK in relation to earlier this year.
