Deutsche Bank praises AstraZeneca's lung drug data but rates shares 'sell' with a target of 11,500p.

Deutsche Bank acknowledged positive data from AstraZeneca's tozorakimab for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), presented at the ERS conference, supporting the drug's commercial potential. Despite this, the bank maintained a 'sell' rating on AstraZeneca shares with a target price of 11,500 pence, slightly below the current trading price. The data follows AstraZeneca's raised peak sales guidance above $5 billion, with consensus forecasts around $4 billion for 2030, suggesting room for modest upward revisions. The next key event will be analysts' reassessment of tozorakimab's revenue potential based on detailed COPD findings.
