“We now believe that positive updates from the company’s pipeline, and the potential for outperformance from the commercial new product launch portfolio over the course of the coming year, can drive meaningful upside to the value that should be ascribed to PFE’s base business (an incremental ~$8/share in our view),” the analyst wrote.

“We believe at this juncture, that there is a sufficiently lessened degree of uncertainty regarding dynamics that will impact the COVID-19 franchise,” he added.

PFE Price Action: Shares of Pfizer had risen by 3.06% to $53.76 at the time of publication Tuesday.
