RBC raises Oxford Nanopore target price on AI-driven growth in biological data demand

RBC Capital Markets increased its target price for Oxford Nanopore Technologies to 300p from 225p, citing the company's strong position to benefit from rising demand for biological data driven by AI advancements in drug discovery. Oxford Nanopore's unique sequencing technology provides rich biological data that supports AI models like DeepMind's AlphaGenome. The UK Biobank project, expected to generate significant near-term revenue, and broader opportunities in AI drug discovery underpin RBC's positive outlook despite modest revenue forecast cuts. The target price reflects a valuation premium based on AI-related growth potential.

Oxford Nanopore's target price was raised by RBC on AI opportunities.
