  • Antibe Therapeutics ATE-TSXV: $0.29 White Paper on ATB-346 Phase II Performance Affirms Our Speculative BUY Positive View on Drug Potential – Spec BUY $1.40 Target
    29 August 2018 Healthcare & Biotechnology Antibe Therapeutics ATE-TSXV: $0.29 White Paper On ATB-346 Phase II Performance Affirms Our Speculative BUY Positive View On Drug Potential – Spec BUY $1.40 Target Event: ON-based drug developer Antibe Therapeutics posted a white paper on its website Projected Return: 383% yesterday that provides added granularity on data derived from its completed 244-patient Valuation: NPV, 20x EPS, 12.5x Phase II gastroduodenal ulceration rate trial, comparing its hydrogen sulfide-releasing EV/EBITDA naproxen analog drug ATB-346 to naproxen itself at doses at which naproxen is, and ATB-346 (F2025 estimates, 40% discount rate) is predicted to, confer measurable symptomatic relief in knee osteoarthritis pain. In parallel, Antibe reported FQ119 financial data for the June-end quarter this morning, data that is less impactful on our valuation than ATB-346 development activities, but we will provide relevant commentary below. Bottom line: Our fundamental investment thesis on Antibe’s pipeline of hydrogen sulfide- releasing pain therapies, and specifically of cyclooxygenase-1-inhibiting non-steroidal anti- inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) for which GI ulceration is a recognized side effect, is unchanged and we remain positive on how the firm’s lead drug ATB-346 performed in recent Phase II GI ulceration rate testing and could subsequently perform in pending Phase II knee osteoarthritis pain testing, for which we expect final pain data by FQ120 (CQ219). We are maintaining our Speculative BUY rating and PT of $1.40 on ATE, with our valuation still based on NPV (40% discount rate that will become increasingly conservative as ATB-346 advances through Phase II testing) and multiples of our F2025 adjusted EBITDA/fd EPS forecasts ($165.6M/$0.41, respectively).
