Reason
As previously reported, BofA upgraded Bristol Myers to Buy from Neutral with a price target of $61, up from $52, based on the strength of Bristol's R&D pipeline. The firm expects 4-6 programs to deliver key de-risking catalysts in the near-term and sees current weakness as a buying opportunity as conservative trough EPS provides a floor for share price and "good pharma pipeline stories can work once investors have visibility on the next product cycle," the analyst contends ahead of "a catalyst-rich 2026." The firm sees multiple scenarios that could position the company for return to growth in 2029 and beyond, the analyst added.

Reason
As previously reported, Guggenheim upgraded Bristol Myers to Buy from Neutral with a $62 price target ahead of 2026, which the firm believes "offers a much more compelling value-oriented and pipeline-driven risk/reward." Given already low expectations for earnings and clinical readouts, the firm views the stock's 2026 floor to be "closer to $50/shr," the analyst tells investors. Meanwhile, recent developments together with ongoing deep dive work into FXI/a, LPA1 and sotatercept sales "offers an attractive (perhaps even compelling entry point) for yield-oriented value investors," the analyst argues.
