Lakefront shares break their 250-session high and gain 4.5%
The Belgian biotech's stock accelerates intraday after a quarterly report that changes the reading of its accounts. The move places it in a price zone it had not visited for a long time, against the backdrop of an ongoing share buyback.
Nine-month net profit of €13.9 million driven by financial income
The group reports a net profit of €13.9 million for the first nine months of 2026, compared with a loss of €461.3 million a year earlier, according to its accounts published on November 11. This return to profit stems from financial income: €156.1 million in net financial income offset an operating loss of €148.4 million, which was reduced by 68% year on year.
Revenue fell 88% to €26.1 million, following the end of revenue linked to the agreement with Gilead.
The company targets year-end cash of between €2.0 billion and €2.05 billion and announces a second share buyback programme of €50 million. The first one, launched in August for the same amount, was about 59% executed by mid-October, i.e. €30 million repurchased.
In this release, the company also indicated that gamgertamig should enter registrational studies in autoimmune diseases in 2027.
Shares rise to €30.20 and gain 28% over three months
