Biogen upgraded to Outperform from Market Perform at BMO Capital

BMO Capital analyst M. Ian Somaiya upgraded Biogen to Outperform saying risks to the multiple sclerosis franchise and Spinraza are getting “quickly priced in” following yesterday’s post-earnings selloff. The “poor-quality” Q3 beat helps set future expectations for multiple sclerosis and Spinraza, Somaiya tells investors in a research note. He expects investor focus to again shift to aducanumab, where his “deep dive” points to Phase 3 success. The analyst trimmed his price target for Biogen shares to $381 from $382. The stock closed yesterday down $12.82, or 4%, to $315.73.
