The price hike comes as UBS expects higher sales for Incyte’s Niktimvo, a treatment for chronic Graft-versus-Host Disease (cGVHD). Amid the expected higher sales, UBS has revised its 2026 earnings per share estimate of $6.36 from $6.26.
UBS also maintained a 9.5x price-to-earnings multiple on Incyte, as it expects the company’s second-quarter earnings call to provide clarity on the company’s strategic direction. The company’s pipeline has already received a boost following the FDA’s extension of the review for ruxolitinib cream for pediatric atopic dermatitis.
Incyte Corporation (NASDAQ:INCY) is a biopharmaceutical company that discovers, develops, and commercializes proprietary therapies in oncology and inflammation & autoimmunity. It also boasts a growing portfolio of treatments for other diseases, including those in dermatology.
