Formycon - H118 results: FYB201 registration closer

Formycon has reported record H118 revenues, boosted by the one-off transfer of FYB202 into a joint venture with Aristo Pharma and payments stemming from the out-licensed assets FYB201 and FYB203. We believe that Formycon biosimilars FYB201 (Lucentis) and FYB203 (Eylea) are set to enter neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD) market post-2020. Cash and equivalents at end-H118 were €11.8m and should give a cash runaway until 2020 based on H118 cash burn. Formycon guides for FY18 revenues of €35m.
