Can someone explain how a buyout affects price? Never really been a part of a stock that got bought out.

It will jump but then it will sell off. This was expected and price was somewhat baked in.

A mega cap pharmaceutical company will pay a premium to buy the small company.

They will pay more due to the future value of the drug.

AUPH is worth 1.8 billion at $15/share.

A big company might pay 5.4 billion for AUPH and shareholders get $45/share.

think he’s referring to not allowing it to be traded AH at all. The halt was long enough so that it can’t be traded until Monday.


The company can decide to halt trading on their stock?

How did you arrive at this number? Does aurinia even have a pipeline to buy?

ETA: I just checked. No pipeline. So even if the stock goes to 20, why would big pharma pay a 125% pps premium on a buyout? Way more than needed and i don't see a situation where this drug becomes a blockbuster

I am curious. I have noticed you make several comments in the last two pages which all seem to find different faults with a higher AUPH valuation.

Are you unconvinced by the approval or valuation of Benlysta?

The Aurinia company seems to be very well positioned (because of cash on hand, drug available, apparently superior LN response, and a pretty reasonable ability to market and distribute) to demand a good buyout price from one of several big pharmaceutical companies. If annual expected revenue projections are even close to accurate $45 per share would be easy to justify and significantly higher is possible.

Well, I thought for a long time about buying it today, but didn’t. It’ll probably run up to $30/share.

I admittedly know way less than many on this board, I'm just curious about what would justify some of the pps buyout estimations. I own some as of today so I'm a cheerleader, just looking for the confidence in a big jump.

As you already pointed out they don't have a pipeline of other drugs so it would predominantly be based on the revenue from LN. I will also obviously admit I have no idea what ends up happening over the next few months.

But I guess the best guide for possible buyout would be the value of their assets plus some multiple of the expected annual profit treating LN (obviously the number of potential buyers alters the sale price as well).

The market doesn't have to be rational (see the present MYOV valuation) but the price Human Genome and Benlysta were sold for (3 billion at depressed value for an inferior drug in 2012) make me think somewhere between $40 and $60 per share is likely.

Does this drug have crossover potential into the realm of heart transplant patients as an alternative to cyclosporin?

Outside of the drug having better results than benlysta, the best argument for why LUPKYNIS is a better treatment is it’s a pill over IV therapy. Meaning the patient, in the eyes of insurance, only has to go to the pharmacy to get drugs vs go to an infusion suite and receive the therapy. Infusion is a very expensive form of treatment due to the overhead and a MD has to be there to sign off on all scripts. That adds up fast and is 7-8 billing items as compared to a dr visit and a script.

It will be doc for LN. from my reading, annual cost of treatment will be tens of thousands of dollars.

Since this is USA, I expect most doctors will try to treat patients with Benlysta because its a big pharma drug.. and when that inevitably doesn't work, they'll say "well.. theres this pill....."

I assume the halt is lifted and trading will resume Monday PM? Or will it be halted until after the press conference?

Bro do you have anything positive to say? This drug will immediately benefit tens of thousands of patients stateside and worldwide that suffer from this miserable disease and you’re more concerned about the investment you made yesterday and spewing bullshite about how this won’t be a blockbuster.
The frick do you know about pharmaceuticals? I have a 1.2cf fridge in my office that has about 14 vials. They cost about $6m in total. One of those vials won’t be needed anymore because of this PILL.

GTFO.

I assume trading will resume post call, but it’s just a guess.
