Zealand Pharma - Initiation of coverage - Bulking up for the big league

We initiate coverage with a BUY and target price of DKK1,050. We see petrelintide as potentially the first and best-in-class amylin, offering GLP-1-like efficacy but with better tolerability and weight-loss composition. We expect a petrelintide profit-sharing agreement in H1 2025, with Roche as the most likely partner in our view. We see its three obesity candidates having the potential to reach a c8% share in a cUSD227bn market by 2042e.
