buying ENTA in the $5.50 range

Are you bragging?

I violated my own covenant by buying ENTA in the $5.50 range. I normally always look at the insider ownership before I start a position. I failed to do this, and I paid the Ultimate investors choice. Insider ownership is pathetic. Most insiders own 30,000 shares or less. The CEO holds a total of 800,000 that's it. This is the latest information I have.

Whether RFK is confirmed or not (I believe he and most of the nominees will be),

Given the lack of qualifications and low character, I sure hope most of the nominees are rejected.

I think it might be wise to anticipate a high degree of chaos from the incoming administration, which translates as volatility in the stock market.

Fully agree. I sold off half of my remaining RVNC and half of CDMO to generate a bigger cash cushion.

I hope that Kennedy is blocked from confirmation and I concur that it would be bullish for the biotech sector; however, I reject the notion that this is hugely consequential matter for ENTA one way or the other.

I added a little more today to push over 20k (excluding children) which is small potatoes compared rest of the Board. Anyone else notice that nearly every day for last two weeks the AH trades are higher than the Close. For example, i am seeing last trade at $5.23 with roughly 24,000 shares so far. Perhaps these trades are inaccurate because they are not actually AH -otherwise why would someone wait for extended trading/not use limit orders?

Yes, some across the board short activities for sure. But from the few bio names I follow, none of them have 5x-6x average volumes last few weeks. That kind of volume spike is unique to ENTA.

It almost felt like they deliberately wanted to ensure we closed in the red. Every time ENTA had a run-up to breakeven during the day, a surge in volume would come in and push it down by a couple of percent.

who the heck knows but my impression is because most bios fail and shorting across the board on average is a winning strategy some funds may do just that. In the meantime another down day (I can't remember the last time it was green) on 8x typical volume so same old same old
Maybe some folks who sold for tax reasons will buy later in the month since you have to wait a month for wash sale rules

It actually requires a lot more conviction to hold a short position on a name that is trading less than cash value than to go long. Was thinking maybe some funds blow up, but even that won’t take this long to clear the inventory.

dewophile dewophile 22 hours ago
it sure seems someone still wants out of a position or shorts are on the move, but it also must be the case that ENTA has become a trading name and you see the same shares changing hands multiple times a day, because otherwise it's hard to see the volume going from 100K a day to 500k+ day in day out

GSK has a large respiratory and asthma business so this should be in their wheelhouse should they wish to pursue the immunology side of KIT
incidentally THRD is down 38% the last 2 trading days. I know bios have been pressured but this seems extreme. They are due to present phase 1 healthy volunteer data (along w biomarker data) this quarter. I see no news

Thanks. I may have stretched by pigeonholing the GSK deal as immunology, but it does bring the potential for GSK to expand into KIT immunology, as you noted.

GSK is in oncology but it is targeted to KIT and like BPMC they could segue to cKIT immunology down the road
GSK oncology after a terrible start has been a bit of a bright spot for the company. I sold most of my shares but still have a small position

Yes, disappointing, although I can see ENTA is trying to go UP today but the selling pressure persists. It is weird. I don’t even know which entities have so many shares readily available to sell after so much selling already

I miss the days when deals like this, JNJ etc would be good for a nice upward push in biotechs
The GILD deal on top of these right in ENTA's space would have been good for 10% plus - shows you how bad sentiment is right now

GSK acquires—(private)—IDRx for $1B up-front + $150M contingency:

https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20250112698434/en • Acquisition includes IDRX-42, a highly selective KIT tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) designed to treat gastrointestinal stromal tumours (GIST)

• IDRX-42 offers potential to address all key KIT mutations in GIST that drive tumour growth and progression and improve tolerability…

Under the agreement, GSK will pay $1 billion upfront, with potential for an additional $150 million success-based regulatory approval milestone payment. IDRX-42 is in phase-1/1b clinical development.

Wow, I assume Leo’s stat6 program is much further along compared to ENTAs’? But it can’t be that far as they are still pre-clinical?

Why would Gilead pay so much upfront for it? I think dewophile quoted another similar deal, $150mm iirc, and also preclinical.

Maybe the next partnership news would be ENTA but on immunology instead of RSV. ;)

Total is now 1.09mm shares - slightly over 7 percent of the public float.

If we were a fund, we would be the 5th largest holder, on par with MS. We should have a say on ENTA future direction ;)

Between family accounts and the portfolio I manage for a private foundation, there are 360K shares.

Wow, with the numbers Alertmeipp has now gathered that means ~1 million shares from this people who use this board. I am just an Academic scientist who is relatively poor so my shares would be a rounding error so are not worth mentioning. You money bags guys can buy me a drink if ENTA does come back and hits big! 😁 🥂

GILD, Leo Pharma ink STAT6 collaboration:

https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20250111983856/en Gilead Sciences…and LEO Pharma today announced a strategic partnership to accelerate the development and commercialization of LEO Pharma’s small molecule oral STAT6 (signal transducer and activator of transcription 6) programs for the potential treatment of patients with inflammatory diseases.

…Targeting STAT6 has shown potential preclinically to treat a broad population of patients and provide an oral alternative to those currently treated with injectable biologics.

Under this partnership, Gilead will acquire LEO Pharma’s comprehensive preclinical oral STAT6 small molecule inhibitors and targeted protein degraders. Gilead will lead further development efforts for the oral programs, while LEO Pharma will lead development for potential topical formulations of STAT6 inhibitors.

…Gilead will have global rights to develop, manufacture, and commercialize the small molecule oral STAT6 program. LEO Pharma will have the option to potentially co-commercialize oral programs for dermatology outside the United States. LEO Pharma will hold exclusive global rights to STAT6 topical formulations in dermatology.

LEO Pharma is eligible to receive up to $1.7 billion in total payments, including an upfront payment of $250 million. In addition, LEO Pharma may also receive tiered royalties ranging from high single-digit to mid-teens on sales of oral STAT6 products. Gilead may receive tiered royalties ranging from high single-digit to mid-teens on sales of topical STAT6 products.

Won't be surprised at all if it happens. Could be easy money as long as they can ensure the company be rational on its RSV program.

Same. I guess that's the fun of small biotech investing. Out sized moves are the norm on both sides. Just hope we have some real news that would justify the 70% down move from $13 few short months ago.

You lucked out on RVNC most lost money there - that is an example of a distressed buyout for sure. I have one example where I lost money despite a buyout and that was ZGEN. Sure I made back some paper losses, but net net was a loss. Can't win them all
