Listen to the news

Arrowhead Pharmaceuticals (ARWR) has had a busy stretch, with REDEMPLO winning FDA approval, plozasiran earning Breakthrough Therapy status, and ARO MAPT entering human trials, all of which are reshaping how investors view the stock.

See our latest analysis for Arrowhead Pharmaceuticals.

All of this clinical and regulatory momentum has shown up in the numbers, with a roughly 70 percent 1 month share price return and a powerful 220 percent 1 year total shareholder return. This suggests sentiment has shifted decisively in Arrowhead’s favor.

If breakthroughs like REDEMPLO have your attention, this is also a good moment to explore other innovative healthcare stocks that could be riding the next wave of medical advances.

After such a sharp rerating, with Arrowhead now trading above the average analyst target and future cardiometabolic and CNS milestones in view, is there still a buying opportunity here, or is the market already pricing in outsized growth?

Most Popular Narrative Narrative: 22% Overvalued

With Arrowhead closing at $70.09 versus a narrative fair value near $57.67, the current share price sits ahead of intrinsic value estimates. This sets up a sharp debate over what growth is already priced in.

Progress in RNAi delivery technology (TRiM™ platform), pipeline breadth in both prevalent and rare/orphan indications, and first mover potential in CNS and adipose tissue RNAi expand Arrowhead's competitive edge as advancements in genomics and precision medicine increase the feasibility and personalization of RNAi therapies. This supports stronger projected net margins and long term earnings growth if adoption broadens.

Result: Fair Value of $57.67 (OVERVALUED)

However, execution missteps on late stage trials or partner disruptions, particularly around plozasiran and key collaborations, could quickly undermine the current optimism.
