ADHD, down to $4.30 off 25%

Piper Jaffray analyst Charles Duncan slashed his price target on Alcobra Ltd. (NASDAQ: ADHD) to $18.00 (from $42.00) but maintained a Overweight rating.

Duncan commented, "On Wednesday afternoon, a well known ADHD expert presented updated analyses from the Phase III study of MDX in adult ADHD (aADHD). These data reinforce our view that MDX may prove to have a differentiated efficacy/safety profile and become a valuable addition to the aADHD treatment tool box. Recall that the study missed its primary endpoint on the intent to treat population but hit when 4 outlier patients were removed from the placebo arm. Shares are down aftermarket, likely due to additional
modifications to the modified-ITT analyses which, although "sloppy" and unlikely to sway investors in the short run, probably will inform the design and conduct of next clinical studies with an effect more prominent in primarily-inattentive patients."
