"Avacta (AVCT): Corp
AGM business update – preclinical progress on 2 fronts
The company has confirmed that H1 FY 2019 is trading in line with market forecasts, and updates relating to its lead bispecific PD-L1/LAG3 Affimer, TMAC Affimer drug conjugate platform and its collaboration with Moderna are encouraging, providing further evidence of the incremental value being created in its Affimer-driven technology platforms.
Management is confident that there will be multiple reagent licensing deals in 2019, given the pipeline of late-stage interest from potential parties. Equally, we would hope/expect further therapeutic licences during 2019, given the preclinical progress that is being made, and building on the LG Chem development deal in December, which has a biodollar value of up to $300m plus royalties.
We reiterate a target price of 120p."
