Mymetics Corporation Announces Initiation of Research Coverage by Khandaker Partners


NYON, Switzerland, Dec. 10, 2008 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Mymetics Corporation
(OTCBB:MYMX) announced today that Khandaker Partners has initiated coverage
(www.mymetics.com) with an intermediate term price range of $1.20 for its
common stock. Mymetics is a Swiss biotech company with a mucosal AIDS vaccine
candidate entering Human Clinical Phase I trials and a long term Malaria
vaccine in Phase II Human Clinical trials. 

The Research Report states, "The outlook for the company is positive as the HIV
and malaria vaccine markets are largely unexplored. The company is developing
vaccines using a novel technology, and is, therefore, likely to capture a
significant market share." 

Khandaker has valued the company using a conservative set of DCF parameters
including a risk-free rate of 3.18%, risk premium of 8.84%, and beta of 0.62 to
calculate the company's cost of capital. Khandaker further assumed an
additional risk premium of 2.00% to account for the opportunity risks faced by
the company. Included in the valuation is the market potential for a HIV
vaccine based on the growing HIV population across the globe and the estimated
market potential of their malaria vaccine based on the current incidence data
of malaria.
