From Finncap this morning - extracts:
"Forecasts and valuation. We are not making any changes to forecasts at the moment and reiterate our SOTP target price of 310p, which assumes a rNPV valuation for pre|CISION of c.55p. We have a high/low valuation of 796p and 211p, respectively, which reflects different assumptions for its SARS-CoV-2 antigen tests."
"Avacta announced a license agreement with POINT Biopharma to use its pre|CISIONâ„¢platform for generating tumour-activated radiopharmaceuticals. This represents (i) a first deal for the pre|CISION platform despite not yet having entered the clinic (AVA6000 expected in Q2 2021) in (ii) an area outside Avacta's core focus of targeted chemotherapies that is (iii) non-exclusive after the first product developed by POINT, with the potential to create incremental value for shareholders. We reiterate our SOTP target price of 310p, which assumes an rNPV valuation for Avacta's first two pre|CISION chemotherapies of c.55p. This should rise substantially on positive data from either Avacta in H2 2021 or POINT."
