Kymera Therapeutics (KYMR) just gave investors a one two punch of good news, with upbeat Phase 1b data for its oral STAT6 degrader KT-621 in atopic dermatitis and an FDA Fast Track designation.
See our latest analysis for Kymera Therapeutics.
The latest Fast Track nod and strong KT-621 data help explain why Kymera’s 30 day share price return is 29.57% and year to date share price return is 105.40%. This reinforces an already powerful 3 year total shareholder return of 217.18% and suggests momentum is still building despite recent fundraising.
If this kind of biotech momentum has your attention, it is worth scanning healthcare stocks to uncover other healthcare names with similarly compelling stories taking shape.
Yet with Kymera still loss making, fresh off a hefty equity raise, and trading roughly 38% below consensus targets, investors now face a key question: is this a genuine entry point or is future growth already priced in?
With Kymera shares last closing at $83.99 versus a most popular narrative fair value of $114, the story points to substantial upside if its assumptions land.
The fair value estimate has risen significantly from $77.59 to $114.00, implying a markedly higher long term upside scenario for Kymera shares. The future P/E multiple has increased substantially from roughly 1,196.7x to 2,010.8x, highlighting a higher valuation being ascribed to anticipated future earnings power.
Curious what justifies a valuation jump of this size? The narrative leans on aggressive revenue scaling, margin expansion and a sky high future earnings multiple. Want to see how those pieces actually fit together, and which long range assumptions carry the most weight in reaching that triple digit fair value?
Result: Fair Value of $114 (UNDERVALUED)

However, mounting R&D spend and Kymera’s heavy reliance on KT-621’s success mean any clinical stumble could quickly challenge that upside narrative.
