IXICO has provided a positive trading update for the six months to March 2021. The company expects H1/21 revenue growth of 8% to £4.9m, which we view as strong performance given the pandemic backdrop. Further, the order book remains strong at £19.0m with £9.4m of new contracts signed in the half and despite the recently announced lost Huntington's disease (HD) revenues, in respect of which IXICO has removed £7.1m from the orderbook. Considering this, we believe IXICO shares are discounting a gre
IXICO has announced its largest pharma client has halted dosing patients in its phase 3 and open-label Huntington's disease studies following a pre-planned review of the data.

We believe the total contracted revenue value to IXICO associated with this programme was £24.8m over the timeframe FY19A to FY24E and

In its first Litmus test after an ‘ambitious’ CMD in June 2021, the British giant has put up a decent show. The group witnessed recovery in the base business, particularly in vaccines which benefited from the sales of COVID-19 vaccine adjuvant. While the near term continues be tricky due to resurfacing COVID-19 concerns, encouraging trends on the COVID-19 vaccine / treatment front and growing HIV and oncology prowess should calm the nerves.

In Q2, Astra reported strong sales growth momentum, (again) driven by a strong showing in oncology, diabetes drug Farxiga and COVID-19 vaccine sales. Although there were some issues in R&I and CVRM. More importantly, at cost vaccine sales and mandatory VBP discounts in China weighed on profitability. While the profitability strain can sustain in H2 as well, one should find confidence from the robust potential of core pharma offerings and the addition of high-growth and excellent-margin Alexion,

A positive trading update for H1 2021 prompts full-year upgrades to forecasts and provides the basis for the introduction of FY 2022 forecasts. H1 2021 sales orders increased 74% to £8.6m; up from £4.9m in H1 2020, with a 50% increase in revenues and a £0.5m increase in adjusted EBITDA to £0.2m. A record contracted order backlog (up 36% or £4.0m from 31 December 2020 to £15.2m), which contains several large contracts with revenues to be recognised over up to six years, provides improved long-ter

What a difference a year makes - 12 months ago, the focus, quite understandably, was on the course of the pandemic and the lifting of the Lockdown (1) measures. For investors, it was the sustainability of the rally in markets seen since March 2020. Today, while we are still thinking about the lifting of lockdown measures, we are also concerned about two “old favourites” from previous decades. Inflation and the parlous state of public finances. The BoE has said that although CPI inflation rose to

In our second edition of “Trend spotting” we note how in the last three weeks the defensive rotation trend has gathered pace and further evidence has emerged of the “relative fading” in the UK economy. However we now see early signs of the “risk on” trend starting to reassert itself in equity markets and we look at small cap laggards plus European exposure as ways to play this.

Q4 trading has led sales to guidance being raised 8%. This has been driven by better than expected UK sales, incl. success with new customers like Wilko/Tesco. Some of the benefit is offset by a non-cash FX debit, but it still leads to an upgrade and higher net cash. As a result of successful trials in Tesco Express, W7 is also being rolled out to 469 more stores. This, and previously announced distribution gains, bodes well for incremental sales/PBT in 2021, and underlines the appeal of its val
