PhotoCure (Buy, TP: NOK135.00) - Fully focused on bladder cancer

Photocure calls itself “The Bladder Cancer Company”, which we consider very apt. The company has gone through extensive changes this year; however, we believe its transformation has only just begun. The deal to buy back the Hexvix rights from Ipsen looks attractive, but should be seen as only the start of a multi-year growth journey. We initiate coverage with a BUY and NOK135 target price.
