Inventiva FIRST LOOK: 3Q24 update holds no surprises, NATiV3 timelines reiterated

Inventiva provided a 3Q24 update which holds no surprises, reporting a cash position of € 13.9m. Following the € 94m in gross proceeds from the tranched equity raise (up to € 348m) announced in October 2024 and € 10m milestone from China partner CTTQ, Inventiva has a cash runway until the end of 2Q25 – this can be further extended with subsequent tranches based on certain conditions being met. With the financing overhang lifted, the focus is on recruitment for the phase 3 (NATiV3) trial of lanifibranor in NASH/MASH, where last screening and randomisation continue to be guided for YE24, and 1H25, respectively. We reiterate our € 7 TP and BUY rating.
