DEMANT: Future Earnings Resilience Will Rely On Stable Market Position

Analysts have trimmed their price target on Demant slightly from DKK 271.65 to DKK 268. This reflects modestly softer assumptions for revenue growth and future P/E, partly offset by a marginally higher expected profit margin and recent views that organic revenue share gains may be limited for now.

BAVA: HERA Procurement Contract And Mpox Demand Are Expected To Drive Upside

Analysts have kept their price target for Bavarian Nordic unchanged at €260. This reflects only small tweaks to inputs such as discount rate, revenue growth, profit margin, and future P/E assumptions rather than a shift in their overall view.

GMAB: Late Stage Oncology Focus Will Drive Stronger Margins And Repricing

Analysts have increased their fair value estimate for Genmab from DKK 2,700 to approximately DKK 3,060, reflecting updated assumptions that combine lower projected revenue growth with higher profit margins and a reduced future P/E multiple. What's in the News Genmab plans to discontinue further clinical development of acasunlimab and to concentrate resources on late stage programs such as EPKINLY (epcoritamab), petosemtamab and rinatabart sesutecan, described as part of its disciplined portfolio and capital allocation framework (Key Developments).
