Mologen - Retaining lefitolimod's value

Mologen has announced that it has terminated negotiations with Oncologie and will retain rights to lefitolimod. With the lefitolimod IMPALA Phase III readout now expected in H219, focus will likely shift to securing a partner for lefitolimod once data are available from this pivotal trial. We have updated our valuation to reflect the termination of Oncologie negotiations. We now forecast that lefitolimod will be out-licensed post the IMPALA trial and assume similar deal terms to those Oncologie presented. We value Mologen at €169m (€18.2/share).
