H.C. Wainwright reiterates Buy rating and $15 price target for Korro Bio after first cohort dosing

H.C. Wainwright reaffirmed a Buy rating on Korro Bio and set a $15.00 price target after the company dosed the initial cohort in its Phase 1/2 ANCHOR trial of KRRO-121. The biotech's shares were trading at $9.97, down 77% over the past year. The trial is planned to last about a year, and its primary completion is projected for the latter half of 2027. Korro Bio reported a current ratio of 9.55 and cash exceeding its debt.

The analyst’s price target implies roughly 50% upside from the current price, which may attract investors seeking upside in a cash‑rich biotech. The trial progress and strong balance sheet reduce financing risk for the upcoming study.
