Citi Bullish On Lilly Upcoming Diabetes Data Readout

 

  • Citi has increased peak risk-adjusted Eli Lilly And Co's  tirzepatide forecasts (diabetes/ obesity/NASH) to more than $25 billion (previously $15 billion, consensus of around $16 billion). 
  • The analyst says that the ongoing feedback from physicians/payers continues to boost the optimism for broader access, reimbursement, and adoption amid the previously unforeseen glucose and weight-lowering properties. 
  • Citi increased the price target to $370 from $285 with a Buy rating.
  • Potential weakness for the drug could come when Eisai Ltd 
    ESALY
     and/or Roche Holdings AG 
    RHHBY
     release data of lecanemab and gantenerumab, respectively as an attractive opportunity to add to positions. 
  • Citi expects around a 65% probability that LLY's TRAILBLAZERALZ 2 meets its primary endpoint in mid-2022.
