Xeris Biopharma moves this week on continued reaction to its Q2 2026 results and a subsequent analyst action. Barclays raised its price target on XERS to USD 14.00 from USD 12.00 while maintaining an Overweight rating, citing net product revenue growth of 34% year-over-year and Recorlev's 81% surge. This follows the company's record Q2 2026 total revenue of $92 million, with Recorlev leading at $57 million, Gvoke at $23 million, and Keveyis at $12 million.
