Altimmune (ALT) Stock Forecast & Price Target
Altimmune (ALT) Analyst Ratings
Bulls say
Altimmune Inc's pemvidutide has demonstrated significant clinical efficacy, notably achieving up to a 76% reduction in liver fat and improvements in key biomarkers associated with liver inflammation and fibrosis, which bodes well for its potential in treating metabolic-associated steatohepatitis (MASH) and alcohol-related liver disease (ALD). The favorable tolerability profile of pemvidutide compared to existing therapies enhances its attractiveness as a treatment option, while its unique dual mechanism of action supports its capability to address systemic metabolic dysfunction effectively. Additionally, the FDA's openness to non-invasive endpoints could expedite the regulatory approval process, further strengthening the company's position in the biopharmaceutical landscape.
Bears say
Altimmune Inc reported a net loss of $23.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2024, indicating ongoing financial challenges as the company continues its clinical development for pemvidutide. Despite pemvidutide's promising weight loss results—showing an average of 15.6% body weight reduction—the market adoption of other approved treatments suggests significant hurdles driven by poor tolerability, compliance issues, and limited efficacy. Furthermore, the company faces multiple risks, including clinical development and commercialization challenges, potential competitor threats, and external factors such as geopolitical disruptions and the ongoing impact of COVID-19, which could adversely affect its financial stability and growth prospects.
