Unveiling 3 Analyst Insights On Arcturus Therapeutics

CSL Limited (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CSLLY#OTC">CSLLY</a>)&nbsp;and Arcturus Therapeutics (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ARCT#NASDAQ">ARCT</a>)&nbsp;announced the results of a Phase 3 head-to-head study of ARCT-154, a self-amplifying (sa-mRNA) COVID-19 vaccine, compared to Pfizer Inc&#8217;s (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PFE#NYSE">PFE</a>) <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/09/b41089773/self-amplifying-mrna-covid-19-vaccine-demonstrates-superior-immune-response-compared-with-mrna-vac" rel="noreferrer noopener">shot Comirnaty</a>.
The study showed that the sa-mRNA COVID-19 vaccine maintained superior immunogenicity compared to the conventional mRNA vaccine Comirnaty&nbsp;for up to one year against Wuhan-Hu-1, Omicron&nbsp;BA.4-5&nbsp;and certain other variants, and at one-sixth the dose of the comparator&nbsp;(5 μg vs. 30 μg, respectively).

The COVID-19 vaccine from this sa-mRNA platform targeted against the JN.1 variant is approved in Japan for immunization against COVID-19 in adults 18 years and older. It is being sold under the trade name Kostaive.
At Day 29, neutralizing antibodies (GMTs unadjusted) against the Wuhan-Hu-1 strain in ARCT-154 recipients (n = 378) were superior to those in the Comirnaty&nbsp;group (n = 374)
<ul>
<li>GMT = 5390 vs. 3738, a GMT ratio of 1.44. This advantage persisted through all time points.</li>
<li>At Day 361 (unadjusted), GMTs were 3396 and 1771 in ARCT-154 (n = 272) and Comirnaty (n = 266) groups, with a GMT ratio of 1.92.</li>
<li>Differences were also observed in responses against Omicron BA.4-5, with GMT ratios of 1.31 at Day 29 and 1.89 at Day 361.</li>
</ul>
Additional data presented by CSL and Arcturus finds that the bivalent formula ARCT-2301, developed on the same platform as ARCT-154, induces superior immunogenicity over conventional bivalent mRNA vaccine Comirnaty, which persists against key variants up to six months postvaccination.
<ul>
<li>Data from 930 participants showed that ARCT-2301 (n = 398) induced superior neutralizing antibody responses vs. Comirnaty (n = 405) against Omicron BA.4-5 (GMT ratio 1·49), and against Wuhan-Hu-1 (GMT ratio 1.45).</li>
<li>The difference persisted through six months with GMT ratios of 2.17 and 1.98, respectively.</li>
<li>Antibody responses against Omicron XBB.1.5 were also higher after ARCT-2301 vs. Comirnaty.</li>
</ul>
Price Action: ARCT stock is up 4.70% at $23.07 at last check Monday.

Cantor Fitzgerald Reiterates Overweight on Arcturus Therapeutics

Arcturus Therapeutics (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/arct#NASDAQ">ARCT</a>) closed the last trading session at $21.10, gaining 2.7% over the past four weeks, but there could be plenty of upside left in the stock if short-term price targets set by Wall Street analysts are any guide. The mean price target of $66.75 indicates a 216.4% upside potential.
The average comprises eight short-term price targets ranging from a low of $18 to a high of $140, with a standard deviation of $35.48. While the lowest estimate indicates a decline of 14.7% from the current price level, the most optimistic estimate points to a 563.5% upside. More than the range, one should note the standard deviation here, as it helps understand the variability of the estimates. The smaller the standard deviation, the greater the agreement among analysts.
While the consensus price target is a much-coveted metric for investors, solely banking on this metric to make an investment decision may not be wise at all. That&#39;s because the ability and unbiasedness of analysts in setting price targets have long been questionable.
However, an impressive consensus price target is not the only factor that indicates a potential upside in ARCT. This view is strengthened by the agreement among analysts that the company will report better earnings than what they estimated earlier. Though a positive trend in earnings estimate revisions doesn&#39;t give any idea as to how much the stock could surge, it has proven effective in predicting an upside.
<h2>Here&#39;s What You Should Know About Analysts&#39; Price Targets</h2>
According to researchers at several universities across the globe, a price target is one of many pieces of information about a stock that misleads investors far more often than it guides. In fact, empirical research shows that price targets set by several analysts, irrespective of the extent of agreement, rarely indicate where the price of a stock could actually be heading.
While Wall Street analysts have deep knowledge of a company&#39;s fundamentals and the sensitivity of its business to economic and industry issues, many of them tend to set overly optimistic price targets. Are you wondering why?
They usually do that to drum up interest in shares of companies that their firms either have existing business relationships with or are looking to be associated with. In other words, business incentives of firms covering a stock often result in inflated price targets set by analysts.
However, a tight clustering of price targets, which is represented by a low standard deviation, indicates that analysts have a high degree of agreement about the direction and magnitude of a stock&#39;s price movement. While that doesn&#39;t necessarily mean the stock will hit the average price target, it could be a good starting point for further research aimed at identifying the potential fundamental driving forces.
That said, while investors should not entirely ignore price targets, making an investment decision solely based on them could lead to disappointing ROI. So, price targets should always be treated with a high degree of skepticism.
<h2>Here&#39;s Why There Could be Plenty of Upside Left in ARCT</h2>
There has been increasing optimism among analysts lately about the company&#39;s earnings prospects, as indicated by strong agreement among them in revising EPS estimates higher. And that could be a legitimate reason to expect an upside in the stock. After all, empirical research shows a strong correlation between trends in earnings estimate revisions and near-term stock price movements.
For the current year, four estimates have moved higher over the last 30 days compared to no negative revision. As a result, the Zacks Consensus Estimate has increased 45.1%.
Moreover, ARCT currently has a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy), which means it is in the top 5% of more than the 4,000 stocks that we rank based on four factors related to earnings estimates. Given an impressive externally-audited track record, this is a more conclusive indication of the stock&#39;s potential upside in the near term.
Therefore, while the consensus price target may not be a reliable indicator of how much ARCT could gain, the direction of price movement it implies does appear to be a good guide.

Does Arcturus Therapeutics Have the Potential to Rally 216.35% as Wall Street Analysts Expect?

Arcturus Therapeutics Receives Clearance Of Investigational New Drug Application For ARCT-032 To Treat Cystic Fibrosis

AN2 Therapeutics&nbsp;(NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/antx#NASDAQ">ANTX</a>), a clinical-stage company, leverages its boron chemistry platform to develop novel small molecule therapeutics to potentially treat various infectious diseases and cancer indications.
The company is currently evaluating its lead clinical-stage candidate, epetraborole, a bacterial leucyl-tRNA synthetase inhibitor, for nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) lung disease and acute melioidosis in separate early-stage studies.
In the past month, shares of AN2 Therapeutics plunged 66.3% after the company announced that it has discontinued its mid to late-stage study on epetraborole for patients with treatment-refractory mycobacterium avium complex lung disease due to unsatisfactory efficacy results.
Year to date, shares of ANTX have plummeted 95.2% compared with the industry&#39;s 1.7% decline.
<img alt="Zacks Investment Research" src="https://staticx-tuner.zacks.com/images/articles/charts/50/74594.jpg?v=2118867417" style="height:310px; width:600px" />
Image Source: Zacks Investment Research
On Aug 8, AN2 Therapeutics announced top-line results from the phase II portion of the phase II/III EBO-301 study evaluating epetraborole in combination with an optimized background regimen (OBR) in treatment-refractory MAC lung disease.&nbsp;
Per ANTX, the EBO-301 study met its primary endpoint, potentially validating a novel patient-reported outcome&nbsp;tool and a higher PRO-based clinical response rate of 39.5% in the epetraborole arm compared with the 25% observed in the placebo arm, when combined with OBR.
However, the MAC lung disease study failed to demonstrate a statistically significant, superior sputum culture conversion at month six, a key secondary endpoint, in the epetraborole + OBR arm compared with the placebo + OBR arm. On the contrary, the sputum culture conversion at month six was similar between the treatment arms.
We remind the investors that in February 2024, AN2 Therapeutics had voluntarily suspended new patient enrollment in the phase III portion of the EBO-301 study due to potentially lower-than-expected efficacy observed in blinded aggregate data.
Following the latest data from the phase II/III study announced in August, the company terminated the phase II as well as the phase III portion of the EBO-301 study.
AN2 Therapeutics clarified that the candidate was generally well-tolerated, and the study was not terminated due to safety concerns.
Following the massive setback, the company will further evaluate the EBO-301 study results to determine the next steps for the potential future development of epetraborole to treat NTM lung disease in other patient populations.
The company also plans to invest heavily in research and developmental activities to accelerate the development of several pre-clinical candidates for infectious diseases and oncology. Simultaneously, AN2 Therapeutics plans to undergo strategic restructuring with the intent of extending its cash runway through 2027.
In an SEC filing, the company stated that it will slash its workforce by approximately 50% by the end of 2024, as part of its strategic restructuring efforts. ANTX anticipates the charges for such a reduction in workforce in the range of $2-$3 million, including severance and other employee-termination related expenses.
Currently, AN2 Therapeutics is gearing up to initiate a phase I clinical study of its second product candidate, AN2-502998, to cure chronic Chagas disease. The company is also planning to initiate a mid-stage study of epetraborole for the melioidosis indication.

On Tuesday, June 25, 2024, Cathie Wood-led Ark Invest made significant trades in NVIDIA Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) and Roku Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ROKU#NASDAQ">ROKU</a>), amidst considerable market volatility. These trades were part of a series of transactions carried out by Ark&#8217;s various ETFs.
The NVIDIA Trade
The firm&#8217;s ARK Autonomous Technology &amp; Robotics ETF (BATS:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ARKQ#BATS">ARKQ</a>) sold 33,834 NVIDIA shares on Tuesday. The transaction was valued at $4.3 million. On the day, Nvidia shares closed 6.8% higher at $126.09.

Despite this, NVIDIA managed to rebound by over 6% on Tuesday, regaining its position as the third most valuable corporation, behind Microsoft Corporation and Apple Inc.
Concerns about NVIDIA&#8217;s influence on the S&amp;P 500 Index have been raised, with some analysts <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/technicals/24/06/39482710/nvidia-stock-drops-over-12-in-3-trading-days-indicators-suggest-whats-next">warning of a potential broader market slump</a> if the company experiences a significant sell-off.
