Key catalyst

Clinical readout for lead GI program

Expected move: +62%

Biggest risk

Clinical failure or the need for dilutive financing would compress value toward ~50% of the anchor, consistent with the bear target and a materially lower recovery valuation.

Invalidation

Break below $8 or thesis failure.

What would change my mind?

Positive clinical readouts and a non-dilutive partnership would materially de-risk the pipeline and support roughly 2x upside from the anchor, consistent with the bull target.

Commentary

Market tone remains cautious after the May 2024 $130M offering; investors focus on cash runway and near-term binary readouts. Low coverage and modest institutional ownership amplify volatility; technical selling has pressured the share price, while long-term re-rating depends on positive data or non-dilutive deals.
