Assumptions: For some in-vivo programs I’m predicting IND to some form of regulatory acceptance in ~3.75 years. For ex-vivo I add ~6 months and use ~4.25 years.
In-vivo is MUCH faster & I believe as regulatory bodies get more comfortable with it, it can approach 3 years!
In-vivo vs. Ex-vivo 🥊
I believe the speed at which in-vivo therapies can move from Nomination > IND > Clinic > Approval is being grossly undervalued.
Quite possibly 1 of the biggest reasons #GeneEditing will transform #biotech into the biggest growth sector of the next decade!
📝 Note: When I say “Approval” I mean at minimum EU approval or US approval — doesn’t necessarily have to be both. One may come ~6 months later.
📝 If these numbers don’t ramp this fast, go to my ‘regular bull case’ ⬇️ which factors in a more conventional ramp
📢 Worth mentioning:
Large stake in new RNA editing company — Orbital Therapeutics
Important partnership with $PRME
These partnerships help to solidify BEAM’s position as a future leader on delivery.
Revenue by year (not including milestones/royalties):
📝 Of note: assumed all rev. was paid upfront. In reality higher priced programs may be paid in 3-5yr plans. Peak until more programs 📣
The “Blue Sky Scenario” assumes 2 MAJOR things:
1) ESCAPE can IND by Late 24’ & debut in 1H 29’ w/ little to no competition in SCD
2) $BEAM-302 is best in class cure for Alpha 1, can IND ~1H 24’ & debut in 1H 28’
In 31’/32’these 2 programs could make up 21b/23.5b or ~89.4% 😳
🚨 This shows how important $BEAM-101 is because it can dramatically increase the probability of success for ESCAPE.
Similarly, BEAM-301 is incredibly important as POC (Proof of Concept) for the big money maker, 💰BEAM-302. 🚨
“Blue Sky” is my ultra bull scenario (or 5/5)
If it pans out…
31’/32’Revenue: $23.5b🔥🔥🔥
Market Cap: $235b🔥🔥🔥
📝 Of Note: Assumes additional pipeline progress aka new programs w/ potential!
📝 This scenario requires a very fast ramp of 302/ESCAPE!
Bull case (4 out of 5)
- Perhaps price and market estimates are too high.
-Perhaps RNAi takes more of the Alpha 1 market than anticipated
-or unforeseen competition/delays for ESCAPE.
-Ramp is a slower/more conventional
2031 Revenue: $15b🔥🔥
Market Cap: $150b🔥🔥
More Conservative/Neutral (3/5)
Either 302 or ESCAPE fails.
Only 1 of those succeeds, and possibly slower/less market share than expected.
2031 Revenue: $8b🔥
Market Cap: $72b🔥
Bear 🐻 case (2 out of 5)
Base Editing is found to work less frequently than expected/has more safety concerns. The company is relegated to a smaller niche or needs to pivot to Prime Editing which will take time.
2031 Revenue: $2b
Market Cap: $16b
Ultra Bear 🐻 (1 out of 5)
Somehow Cas12b, Base editing, and Prime Editing all fail or have much more limited applications than originally thought.
2031 Revenue: $1b
Market Cap: $8b
🚨Again, all MC predictions are ~9yrs away-for Dec. 31st, 2031- except for Ultra Bull (9-10 years)
$NTLA I am very frustrated by this decision. They should have waited ~6 months or so. Anything under 75-100 is just dumb IMO.
250 million isn’t tons - in comparison the one last year was 690 million - but still. Just WAIT 6 months!
There are 2 ways to look at this…
1. They can’t find any partners so they have to do it this way (unlikely considering I’m sure $REGN wishes they had more of $NTLA 2001).
OR
2. They are confident in their potential monetization of 2001/2002 and didn’t want to give up a %.
P.S. there isn’t a date scheduled and it says it doesn’t even have to be completed so that is a good thing that they can wait. Does anyone know how long they can wait to do it? 3 months? 6 months etc?
