Morgan Stanley initiated research coverage on BioCryst Pharmaceuticals(BCRX) Monday with an "equal weight" rating. "We see potential for near-term upside from government peramivir orders (IV seasonal and pandemic flu drug) over the next 12 months, but have less insight into the success of the drug’s Phase III trial in flu, which is critical for long-term commercial success beyond the current pandemic. Government orders or a second H1N1 virus peak (many experts expect) could create short-term stock momentum, but sustainable upside will depend on Phase 3 seasonal flu trials (data 2011), leaving us with an equal weight rating," writes analyst Steve Harr. Morgan Stanley was the lead investment bank on BioCryst's recent follow-on stock offering. -- Reported by Adam Feuerstein in BostonTheStreet Premium Services
