Results date sets the next marker

What the target cut changes
RBC Capital's target reduction leaves only USD 0.01 of stated upside to the Nasdaq price used in the analyst comparison. The broader analyst picture on MarketScreener listed four analysts and an average target of USD 0.38, but individual targets remain widely separated, making the October 16 cut the clearest dated valuation signal.
