TherapeuticsMD Upgraded; Oppenheimer Expects ’Positive’ News

(Bloomberg) -- TherapeuticsMD indicated $5.01-$5.15 pre-market vs $4.80 prev. close after Oppenheimer analyst Jay Olson raised the stock to outperform from market perform and assigned PT $10 on the reasonable probability of positive news at TXMD’s FDA meeting on TX-004HR; an update is expected around July 14.

  • Assigns 60% probability that TXMD resubmits the drug by July 31 with a potential FDA approval by Sept. 29 in the best case
