In mid April 2021 I wrote about XBrane for the first time. At that time Xbrane was trading around 78 SEK, it is 170 SEK today.
The reason for the share price growth was the imminent announcement of Phase 3 results and very high likelihood of positive outcome (97% for biosimilars). These shares always perform well prior to such important announcements. I started reducing my position, because we may have a sell the fact situation. The share price could drop significantly even on the positive announcement. Further, the company need to raise additional capital, which may push the share price down. It may be a time to consider taking some money off the table.
There is a very similar situation boiling. Biovica International. It is due to announce the FDA approval during the 3Q21 – within three months from now. As with Xbrane, there is very low likelihood of failure, as BIovica has 12 studies that its product work with the most prominent US hospitals (Stanford, Mayo, Cleveland, etc) , As with Xbrane, the share price should start reacting before the announcement. My base case is that the share price should double by that time, as it did in Xbrane.
