Robert Burns has given his Buy rating due to a combination of factors related to Cardiff Oncology’s recent clinical trial results and financial performance. The CRDF-004 trial data indicates that the combination of onvansertib with standard of care (SoC) achieved a higher confirmed overall response rate compared to the SoC alone, demonstrating promising efficacy despite a decline from initial results. Additionally, the unconfirmed response rate shows potential for further positive outcomes.
Cardiff’s financial results for the third quarter of 2025 showed a net loss per share that was better than anticipated, and the company maintains a strong cash position, which is expected to support operations into early 2027. The valuation of Cardiff Oncology is based on a discounted cash flow model, with a price target of $10 per share. However, risks such as potential negative trial results, delays in clinical advancements, and market penetration challenges are noted, but the overall outlook remains positive, justifying the Buy rating.
