Why Truist lifted its target
Truist linked its revised target to the expected clinical update for XmAb819 at the European Society of Medical Oncology Congress. The source said the update was scheduled for October 25, 2026 and assigned a 70 percent probability to favorable scenarios, while estimating peak XmAb819 revenue at USD 800.00 million, according to Investing.com. The target change gives the clinical program a larger role in the near-term valuation discussion.
Three milestones shape the setup

On August 5, 2026, second-quarter revenue reached USD 51.22 million, compared with USD 4.52 million in the first quarter, while net loss narrowed to USD 21.73 million from USD 128.92 million, according to Inside-Filings. On September 28, 2026, Truist raised its target from USD 27.00 to USD 29.00 while maintaining its Buy rating, according to Investing.com.
What dates matter for the pipeline
The next two public milestones are October 18, 2026, when the XmAb819 abstract was scheduled for release, and October 23 to October 27, 2026, when the Phase 1 study was scheduled for presentation in Madrid, according to Investing.com. MarketBeat lists November 4, 2026 as the estimated date for third-quarter results, with the announcement expected after the market close, according to MarketBeat.
