Piper Sandler has revised its price target for Sarepta Therapeutics (SRPT, Financial), reducing it from $182 to $110 while maintaining an Overweight rating on the stock. This adjustment reflects decreased sales projections for Sarepta's Elevidys, following insights from a survey conducted with 20 neurologists.

The survey aimed to assess the impact of a recent safety update regarding Elevidys on prescribing habits and market perception. The results revealed that while 40% of the surveyed neurologists indicated the safety incident had no effect on their prescribing practices, 60% reported a likely impact, leading to hesitancy in recommending the treatment.

Based on these findings, Piper Sandler anticipates a significant decline in Elevidys usage, projecting an average decrease of 14% for ambulatory and 24% for non-ambulatory cases for the remainder of 2025 and into the fiscal year 2026. These adjustments underline the uncertainty surrounding Elevidys’ future market performance amid safety concerns.
