H.C. Wainwright says Xoma (XOMA) took “a nice ride down the creativity road again with nice pipeline expansion,” after the company announced an expanded relationship with partner Takeda (TAK). The deal with Takeda is highlighted by no cash out from Xoma for bringing in nine assets, the firm notes. This was accomplished by only marginally reducing Xoma’s royalty/milestone share in Takeda’s mezagitamab. Wainwright maintains its positive view here on the depth and breadth of Xoma’s partnered assets as well as the ongoing creativity of transaction the company consummates, and looks forward to a transactional and royalty growing 2026. The firm has a Buy rating on Xoma with a price target of $97 on the shares.
