There have been several significant events in Biogen (BIIB)'s activities recently. Biogen has been upgraded by Weiss Ratings to 'Hold (C-)', signalling potential improvement in stock performance. The company is reported to be making moves to bolster its competitive edge in the field of autoimmune diseases and has been revamping its immunology pipeline. Investors will likely see fresh gains by 2025 as Biogen expands its operations with novel endeavours.
\nThe company has finalized a $1 billion licensing deal with Vanqua Bio for an immunology drug, which they plan to introduce in 2027. Moreover, Biogen’s Alzheimer’s drug Leqembi has gained approval in 48 countries, including the European Union, marking a significant stride in global Alzheimer’s treatment. In addition, the company had secured the rights for Vanqua's C5aR1 paying $70 million up front.
\nDespite a 14% spike in their stock, the valuation of Biogen remains a key focus, particularly after positive clinical results for Dravet syndrome were announced. Other advancements include the acquisition of Vanqua’s C5aR1 antagonist program and the promising results of Dapirolizumab Pego.
\nFinally, Biogen continues to show strong quarterly earnings; their Q2 earnings exceeded estimates, and they secured approval for the first medicine, Leqembi, which slows the progression of early Alzheimer's disease.
