Legend Biotech plunges despite record quarter and first profitable quarter
Legend Biotech's stock fell about 2.4% in pre-market trading despite a surprisingly strong second quarter with adjusted EPS of $0.16 (consensus $0.07) and revenue of $387.5 million. The company thus reported its first profitable quarter, but a "sell-the-news" reaction was amplified by Oppenheimer's downgrade (Outperform → Perform, price target $75 → $40), earlier analyst cuts, and the CEO's resignation. Analysts also warn of growing competition for CARVYKTI and a lack of near-term catalysts. The decline is reported to be company-specific, while US indexes rose slightly. » More on de.investing.com
Legend Biotech beats Q2 expectations and achieves company-wide profitability
Legend Biotech reported adjusted EPS of $0.16 and revenue of $387.5 million for Q2, both above consensus estimates. The company recorded its first profitable quarter on both an IFRS and adjusted basis, driven by global CARVYKTI revenue of about $657 million (+50% year/year). Management expects continued adjusted profitability in H2 2026, plans an IND filing for LB2501 in 2026, and targets long-term gross margins of around 75%, but warns of margin volatility and leadership uncertainty. The stock rose about 5% in premarket trading. » More on de.investing.com
