UBS clips its price target on Neutral-rated Virgin Galactic (NYSE:SPCE) to $26 from $38.
Analyst Myles Walton fired off the PT change after the space tourism company pushed out its next powered flight to mid-October at the earliest due to a potential supplier part issue. The firm now assumes entry into service for Virgin Galactic's delta generation of ships in 2024 instead of 2023.
"The Delta class ship will be the trailblazer to making the VG flight operations clear sales, profit and cash earnings targets and ultimately determine long-term business viability. Unfortunately, the current spaceship class turn-time limitations tie Virgin Galactic in very low rate operations."
Shares of SPCE are down 0.12% premarket to $24.22. The relative strength index on SPCE is back below 50.
