Shield Therapeutics - Next step US Feraccru approval
Shield Therapeutics reported FY18 results in line with our expectations. Total revenue of £11.9m included the £11.0m upfront payment from European partner Norgine. Operating expenses were substantially reduced as Shield moved from a direct selling model to out-licensing deals for Feraccru commercialisation. Norgine will roll out Feraccru across additional European countries in 2020, subject to country-by-country reimbursement negotiations. In the US, we expect Feraccru approval in 2019 and that Shield will seek a marketing partner thereafter. The positive AEGIS-H2H data (non-inferiority to IV iron) announced recently should strengthen Feraccru’s appeal. We value Shield at £177m (from £178m).Shield Therapeutics is a specialty pharmaceutical company focused on the development and commercialization of late stage, hospital-focused pharmaceuticals which address areas of high unmet medical need. Co.'s key products are Feraccru®, commercially available for the treatment of Iron Deficiency Anaemia, and PT20, for the treatment of systemic phosphate accumulation (otherwise known as hyperphosphatemia). Co. has an additional pipeline of three prescription pharmaceutical assets (PT20, PT30 and PT40) with commercial synergies.
