Research Alert: CFRA Retains Buy Rating On Shares Of Vertex Pharmaceuticals Incorporated
CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:After Q1 results, we lower our target price to $535 from $579, 24.4x our 2027 EPS, a discount to VRTX's 10-year historical forward P/E average. We maintain our 2026 EPS view of $19.40 and our 2027 EPS estimate at $21.92. VRTX's Q1 2026 was marked by robust revenue growth, successful commercial execution of new products, and significant progress in its clinical pipeline, particularly in the renal space. The company's CF franchise remains the primary revenue driver, while new products like Casgevy and Gernavics are beginning to contribute meaningfully to growth, accounting for approximately 25% of the total product revenue growth in Q1. Pipeline advancement remains robust, in our view, with the completion of the rolling BLA submission for povetacicept in IgA nephropathy representing a significant regulatory milestone. Using a Priority Review Voucher, VRTX expects an expedited six-month FDA review timeline, which is encouraging.
