Oscient reiterated at strong buy by JMP
Oscient Pharmaceuticals Corp. was reiterated by JMP Securities analyst Adam Cutler at a strong buy following the company's reported second-quarter Factive sales of $2.6 million, lower than JMP's $5.5 million estimate. Total revenue of $4.6 million also fell short of the analyst's estimate of $7.5 million and the Street estimate of $7.9 million. According to the analyst, the purchase of cardiovascular drug Antara, expected to close in August, could be a major catalyst for Oscient, if successful. Shares of the Waltham, Mass.-based biopharmaceutical company were down 6 cents, or 6.56%, at $1.14, on volume of 1,185,782 shares versus the three-month running average of 571,844 shares.
