Reason
H.C. Wainwright analyst Ananda Ghosh initiated coverage of Skye Bioscience with a Buy rating and $20 price target. The firm believes the company's nimacimab can introduce a new mechanism of longstanding interest to obesity clinicians. Nimacimab is a peripherally restricted monoclonal antibody targeting the CB1 receptor, designed to deliver the metabolic benefits of CB1 blockade without the psychiatric side effects that derailed earlier small molecule antagonists, the analyst tells investors in a research note. H.C. Wainwright views Sykes shares as undervalued at current levels.

As previously reported, Evercore ISI initiated coverage of Skye Bioscience with an Outperform rating and $10 price target. Nimacimab is the "only weekly SC large molecule CB1 inhibitor in development," says the analyst, who sees the drug having the potential to "fill critical gaps in obesity care." The 26-week Phase 2a readout due in late Q3 or early Q4 will be "the next major test," the analyst added.

Reason
Oppenheimer lowered the firm's price target on Skye Bioscience to $17 from $21 and keeps an Outperform rating on the shares. The firm notes the company reported Q1 results with $11.8M OpEx and $59.2M cash providing expected runway through Q1 2027 and supporting execution of Phase 2a CBeyond and manufacturing for Phase 2b. Oppenheimer looks forward to top-line data for CBeyond in late-Q3/early-Q4, as Skye previously announced that ahead-of-schedule enrollment would eliminate the need for an interim analysis. Regarding CBeyond trial extension, it sees longer-term dosing and follow-up as potentially derisking for nimacimab ahead of a dose-ranging Phase 2b.
