SELECTED CASES

SHARE PRICE DEVELOPMENTS

The majority of the Danish Biotech stocks delivered good performance last week. The average return was 1.5%. Saniona rose 30% followed by Initiator Pharma A/S and Evaxion Biotech A/S even though none of the companies presented any news. On the other hand, Pila Pharma A/S and Scandion Oncology A/S and 2Curex AB became the worst performing Danish biotech stocks last week falling 12-13%. In the past year, most of the companies have delivered a negative return. However, there has been two major outliers that have delivered an outstanding share price performance. Saniona AB and Zealand Pharma A/S have risen 193-195%. Both Saniona and Zealand Pharma are working on obesity medicines, and the interest in the stocks is likely to have increased considerably following Novo Nordisk’s major success with Wegovy.
