1. TG Therapeutics, Inc. (TGTX)
Shares in TG Therapeutics have exploded by a whopping 76% so far in Q1. This innovative biotech is focused on developing novel treatments for devastating blood cancers and autoimmune diseases.
“We believe TG is generating a complete B-cell therapy franchise that is unique in the oncology space, which could provide substantial value across various B-cell cancers” writes B.Riley FBR’s Madhu Kumar. He selects TGTX as an Out the Gate 2018 Pick, due to his “reasonable confidence in success in the Phase III UNITY-CLL trial, with interim data expected in 2Q18.”
For investors looking for some serious upside potential, five-star HC Wainwright analyst Edward White sees the stock spiking to $38 (154% upside potential). He reiterated his buy rating on March 21. White bases his valuation on the potential revenue and success of the company’s two main drugs ublituximab and umbralisib. Combined, he is projecting 2026 revenue for these drugs of $990 million.
