According to TipRanks data, the analyst has a success rate of 45.9% and a total average return of 14.1% over the past year.
Furthermore, according to the comprehensive report, the opinions of $Summit Therapeutics (SMMT.US)$'s main analysts recently are as follows:
Since May, following significant share price appreciation, Summit Therapeutics has exceeded prior market expectations. The company's value has surged with a market capitalization reaching $16B, propelled by optimistic results from the HARMONi-2 study. While acknowledging the potential for shares to rise swiftly with further positive outcomes from HARMONi-2/3/6 studies or pivotal data in areas other than lung cancer, visibility on the timing remains low. The current valuation is perceived as reasonable for the time being.
Investor focus is appropriately centered on the outcomes from the HARMONi-2 study, which compares ivonescimab directly with pembrolizumab. Nonetheless, a range of significant data presentations at WCLC24 and ESMO24 concerning the PD-[L]1/VEGF class for various solid tumor types deserves attention. The array of data presented at ESMO24 has led to an increase in the perceived likelihood of success for all indications within this class.
