Biogen (BIIB) has been demonstrating commendable performance, exceeding market expectations and raising its outlook for 2024. The company's profits received a notable boost from new drug launches, cost-cutting efforts and significant traction for Alzheimer's drug, Leqembi. Q2 2024 financials highlighted key metrics superseding estimates while the subsequent guidance raised for 2024 reflects the company's robust position. Despite a setback for Leqembi, Biogen showcased resilience and managed to realign resources efficiently. Additionally, three-year continuous treatment data from LEQEMBI emphasized significant benefits for early Alzheimer's patients. However, Biogen's stock did experience a dip due to less-than-expected revenue growth. The company's strategy of expanding its rare disease pipeline was extensively highlighted as it announced the acquisition of HI-Bio. It also received FDA acceptance for sBLA of Leqembi, EU approval for Qalsody and a positive CHMP opinion for SKYCLARYS®, a pivotal treatment for Friedreich’s Ataxia. Notably, Biogen's stock surged on beating sales expectations while its strategic approach continues to position it as a top value stock with long-term momentum. Nevertheless, challenges remain with doubt about future growth and continuous Aduhelm pressures.
