WestLB erhöht Kursziel für Morphosys auf 65 (63,30) Euro

Share price reaction overdone, mid-term prospects
intact
After MorphoSys reported FY 2006 results and gave an outlook
for FY 2007, we have adjusted our model. Whereas we lowered
our estimates for the therapeutic antibody division to reflect the
FY 2006 results and the new FY 2007 guidance, we increased our
estimates for the AbD division to reflect the excellent outlook
given for this division. Overall, we have lowered our revenue and
EBIT estimates going forward. However, we forecast a 59%
increase in EBIT yoy for FY 2007 based on the lower base for FY
2006. We believe mid-term prospects remain intact and even
increase our price target from €63.3 to €65 as we now moved our
DCF model one year forward. We reiterate our Buy rating.
Therapeutic antibody division. The therapeutic antibody division
performed strongly in FY 2006 with revenues up by 19% yoy an
increase in EBIT margin from 42% in FY 2005 to 48% in FY 2006.
Positively for FY 2007, MorphoSys guided for new IND filings for
HuCAL-based antibodies at partners of between 1-3. We would have only
expected a guidance of between 0-3. Furthermore, the company expects
that the number of antibody programs would increase from 43 to 50 and
from 2008 to 2011 by another 40. On its own antibody programs,
MorphoSys said that both MOR103 and MOR202 would be on track. The
company said that it would double its investments into own programs
from €3m in FY 2006 to around €6m in FY 2007.
AbD division. Although we did not forecast such a high net loss for FY
2006 in this division, we are encouraged by the strong performance on
the revenue side. Furthermore, the company was very convincing in
saying that it would target an increase in revenues of more than 20%
and an EBIT margin of 5-10% for FY 2007. We were only looking for an
increase in revenues of 17% and a break even on the EBIT line for FY
2007.
Model changes. Based on company guidance and the observed growth
rate for FY 2006 in the therapeutic antibody division, we lowered our
forecasts between 2007 and 2011 by between 8-9%. However, due to
the excellent outlook for the AbD segment, we increased our forecast
from 2007 to 2011 by between 6 and 11%. Overall, we lower our total
revenue forecast by between 3 and 4% from 2007 to 2011. Given the
lower basis for FY 2006 and our adjustments made to revenues, we
lowered our EBIT forecast going forward by between 8-12%.
Still a Buy. Although we lowered our estimates going forward, our fair
value derived from our DCF model has even increased from €61.6 to
€63.3 as we now moved our model one year forward. Including the fair
value of €1.7/share we calculated for the Novartis option, we arrive at a
new fair value of €65/share. We believe that the company has excellent
mid-term growth prospects and still regard the company as a take over
target. Furthermore, our new estimates imply an EBIT growth of 59%
yoy for FY 2007.We therefore reiterate our Buy rating and set a new
target price at €65.
