Galapagos FIRST LOOK: uneventful 1Q24 results, FY24 cash burn guidance reiterated

Galapagos reported uneventful 1Q24 results and confirmed its FY24 cash burn guidance of € 280-320m (FY23: € 414.8m), thanks to the savings from the transfer of Jyseleca to Alfasigma. While the company did not provide an update on timelines for its pipeline, we think data updates from the phase 1/2 CAR-T trials in r/r NHL and r/r CLL could come at upcoming scientific conferences (e.g. ASH in December 2024). Beyond that, BD remains on the table and we'd like to see an acceleration on that front with new announcements (e.g. mid-stage assets) in FY24. We reiterate our Accumulate rating and € 50 TP.
