Neurocrine's overall score is driven by strong financial performance, robust earnings growth, and positive earnings call insights. While technical indicators present a mixed view, the company's high valuation and absence of dividends are key considerations. Continued attention to operational costs and external pricing pressures will be critical.

Positive Outlook for Neurocrine: Strong Performance and Growth Potential Drive Buy RatingWe see potential investor concern surrounding Ingrezza’s sales outlook, particularly given its narrowing of 2025 sales guidance below its original upper-bound set earlier this year (see below). This is largely due to declining net price assumptions with heavier Part D contracting, but the upside here is that volume has increased with record number patient new starts on therapy being reported. Thus, the debate will now become if increased volumes, particularly in 2026, can overcome pricing pressures as Ingrezza looks to compete against Austedo, currently under the CMS Part D price negotiation procedure within the IRA. Crenessity revenue for the second quarter of $53.2 million significantly beat our estimate of $16.8 million as well as the consensus estimate of $24.0 million.
