$NBIX Crenessity product sales were $98MM in its 3rd calendar quarter on the market. We cannot let this go $VRNA was acquired for an enterprise value of just under $10B. VRNA's new therapy did $76MM in product sales in its 3rd calendar quarter on the market Attached we note valuations paid to acquire 7 NBIX peers that ranged from 100 to 140X product sales in their respective 3rd calendar quarter on the market. $MDGL Rezdiffra did a hair more than Crenessity in its 3rd quarter on the market. NOTE: MDGL has meaningful convertible securities that suggest its fully diluted market cap is 35% higher (see our post If NBIX's Crenessity merits a valuation multiple consistent with these peers, it suggests Crenessty is worth roughly $10 to $14B by itself. This does not consider NBIX's Ingrezza, approved in April 2017 that is on track to doing $2.5B in FY25 product sales. Using these peers/comps suggest there may be considerable upside to NBIX investors should NBIX ever consider an M&A exit. $XBI $IBB

$TNXP Pathway surely does not put any cap on peak sale itself. But as many MDs -- some even posted online -- pathway indicates novelty / efficacy of a drug, which in turn suggests many MDs take TNXP trial data with great suspicion, and may well avoid prescribing the drug due to significantly higher cost -- $11,000 a year, when primary efficacy shown in sleep, and secondary impact on pain management. Sale ramps must impact market cap. Why investors would give a valuation in year 2025-26, when peak revenue could be 5-10 years away! Check $TNXP price chart and compare it to $VRNA (got acquired for $10B with 600% appreciation post approval in ~a year), and $MDGL now at $12B. No doubt $TNXP must go lower further.

$TNXP Wait till Q1 2026 earning to get depressed with poor sale figures for Tonmya. It would take time to even cross $100M annual revenue rate (ARR) unlike $MDGL or $VRNA that had rapid sale ramp up. Isn't Seth a very low grade executive at the end? BTW, your fibromyalgia patients to revenue projection is WRONG -- Tonmya prescription would cost ~50% of what you posted. Of course a patient can have multiple prescriptions to be filled in a year, as fibro is chronic.

The attachment graphs Attruby sales from $BBIO versus $VRNA for their respective first 4 quarters on the market. Raw data is on the bottom right Note sales have been virtually identical by quarter. Yes sales do not consider TAM but are definitely a barometer for valuation. VRNA was acquired for roughly a $9.8B enterprise value. VRNA's gross margin was 94% before being acquired where BBIO was 96% last quarter. VRNA's patent expires in 2035 (years at which sales peak per VRNA forecast) where we understand Attruby in patented thru 3/2039. Investors should confirm Attruby patent life for themselves...we're not 100% sure). Obviously, BBIO sales do not consider Encaleret nor its remaining pipeline. BBIO's market cap is $12.80 at $66.90 per share per Yahoo Finance. This is not investment advice. $XBI $IBB $NBI

$VRNA I understadn this has been sold to $MRK, but the MAA for Ohtuvayre was withdrawn. https://www.ema.europa.eu/en/documents/withdrawal-letter/withdrawal-letter-ohtuvayre_en.pdf Due to the merger with Merck, "continuing the MAA process for Ohtuvayre is not aligned with current business objectives and portfolio strategy."

$AVXL the last few times i've seen such downward plays always have been right before some major announcements. Last time it was with $VRNA, where it was ridden down from $100 to $86, just to announce the "aStOnIsHiNg" buyout price of $107 a day after.

$IOVA $VRNA to put some numbers into perspective, $100K invested into $VRNA worth $600K+ in ~1 year. And $100K invested in IOVA, is worth below $20K after 1 year 8 months! One lost making 3,000%-3,500% (30-35x) investing in IOVA over VRNA. Too ugly of an investment for those who kept holding after the post FDA-approval jump, when stock moved from $3(pre approval) to $18(post approval) on first ever TIL hypes.

Yes, $IOVA has taken steps. More competent CMO and CCO, and layoff to save cost. But after huge price to investors already! For example, $VRNA got approval after IOVA, and yet acquired for 600-700% appreciation in a year at $10B since FDA approval. And IOVA trading at 1/6th price since the approval! GOSH! It's a great wonder how on earth Fred can be still employed as interim CEO for too long with such incompetency? A new CEO won't be hired until Wayne takes the initiative. Fred may get fired on day 1 by new CEO for: 1) super-low drug pricing 2) super incompetent sales ramp up 3) failed EU approval 4) inflated organizational costs 5) utterly nonsense TIL utilizations impacting the gross margin ... among others

$IOVA that's exactly right! Another factor comes in play is competition or drug superiority. For instance, $VRNA got a superior COPD drug, and got 600-700% growth at BO since FDA approval in Q2 2024. For $MDGL , price had been muted even with solid revenue growth as the firstever MASH drug due to upcoming competitions and the fact that it's not most effective drug. For $IOVA the decline from post FDA approval took some time, but take a look at $TNXP -- another very poorly managed stock -- infamous for FOREVER reverse splitting. I had been in TNXP only since last reverse-split, and sold positions as it went 1000% on HYPE. And then it LOST 70% value since FDA approval -- even BEFORE the drug is launched. Just because TNXP had another F-grade managements, many investors who got in after the FDA approval in August dumped due to fear of failure launch by a low caliber CEO.

$VRNA great run from 15 to 107 got in because of @Stocktor who kept me patient at CCXI. i just took up position at $IMRX because they have a treatment for pancreatic cancer which in 2a tials have kept 86% alive compared to 47% standart treatment at 9 months.. second reason I went there is because Thomas Schall went there and he was the CEO of CCXI another small molecule inhibitor. any way listed to Thomas earnings call and that guy is a rock star. will likely be long road but they have cash from recent public offering till 2029 which get them through phase 3. And sanofi just took up 25M position as well. which tells me its a BO candidate. GLTA love to hear other opinions.
