Gil Blum has given his Sell rating due to a combination of factors impacting Sarepta Therapeutics. The company’s earnings per share for the second quarter of 2025 exceeded expectations, primarily due to a significant milestone payment from Roche, rather than sustainable revenue growth. This raises concerns about the reliability of future earnings, especially as Sarepta did not provide any sales guidance.
Additionally, there is ongoing uncertainty surrounding the future revenues of Elevidys, particularly with the risks associated with upcoming study results that could affect the PMO franchise. The company’s financial outlook is further complicated by its high expected operational expenses starting in 2026, following a recent restructuring. These elements contribute to the cautious stance and the Sell rating issued by Gil Blum.
In another report released on July 30, Citi also maintained a Sell rating on the stock with a $12.00 price target.
