Krystal called ‘underappreciated’, started at buy by Blair


William Blair starts ‘underappreciated’ Krystal Biotech at Outperform. William Blair analyst Raju Prasad initiated coverage of Krystal Biotech with an Outperform rating and $29 fair-value estimate. The company is developing novel gene therapies for skin diseases, and its lead candidate KB103 is in a Phase I/II trial for the treatment of dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa, Prasad tells investors in a research note titled. The analyst believes the shares offer a positive risk/reward profile ahead of clinical data expected by year-end given KB103’s mechanism of action and preclinical data. If approved, KB103, could generate $500M in worldwide revenue by 2028, Prasad predicts. He views Krystal Biotech as an “underappreciated gene therapy company.”
