Catalyst Pharmaceuticals: Undervalued Future With Multiple Upside Catalysts
Catalyst Pharmaceuticals' current stock price only assumes historical momentum for existing drug portfolio continues, undervaluing future upside potentials. CPRX stock's upside potential is driven by expanding drug distribution, increasing dosages, and acquiring additional drugs, while downside risk is limited by strong cash flow and exclusivity runways. The base case is very realistic, offering an attractive asymmetric trade payoff with a potential 40% upside, despite risks associated with acquisition-dependent revenue growth.

Catalyst Pharmaceuticals: Stable Firdapse, Promising Agamree, Fycompa Challenges
Firdapse drives Catalyst Pharmaceuticals, Inc.'s revenue with a 37% CAGR since its 2019 launch, boosted by an FDA-approved 100 mg dose expansion. Agamree targets DMD and has so far generated $46 million in its first 10 months, which does attest to its strong growth potential. However, Fycompa still faces generic competition starting May 2025. So it remains to be seen if they'll achieve a “managed and gradual” revenue decline.
