AbCellera Biologics Inc. (ABCL) came out with a quarterly loss of $0.17 per share versus the Zacks Consensus Estimate of a loss of $0.14. This compares to loss of $0.10 per share a year ago.
AbCellera is shifting its focus from a platform biotech company to its internal drug pipeline. The company's lead asset, ABCL575, comes with a variety of risks, but in our opinion, has a value of a little over $1B and is derisked based on comparable therapeutics. AbCellera is on track to submit ABCL575 for clinical trials in Q22025, helping the market reset its valuation on the company closer to the value of the lead asset.
AbCellera's Q2 2024 revenue declined by 27% year-over-year to $7.3 million. The company's net loss widened to $36.9 million due to increased R&D expenses. AbCellera's cash and marketable securities totaled $697.6 million, with total liquidity exceeding $900 million.
