Sage Therapeutics Q4 2024 GAAP EPS $(1.56) Misses $(1.43) Estimate, Sales $12.815M Miss $14.441M Estimate

Biotech giant Biogen Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BIIB#NASDAQ">BIIB</a>) is scheduled to report fourth-quarter earnings on 12 February.
The Wall Street forecasts fourth-quarter adjusted EPS of $3.35 and sales of $2.40 billion, while fiscal year 2024 adjusted EPS is expected to be $16.34 and <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/calendars/earnings" rel="noreferrer noopener">sales of $9.64 billion</a>.
January 2025 had been an eventful month for Biogen. Sage Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SAGE#NASDAQ">SAGE</a>) announced that its Board of Directors initiated a process to explore strategic alternatives and rejected the unsolicited, nonbinding proposal it received from Biogen for <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/01/b43232552/sage-therapeutics-board-of-directors-initiates-review-of-strategic-alternatives-and-rejects-biogen" rel="noreferrer noopener">$7.22 per share</a>.
In January, the FDA approved the Supplemental marketing application for lecanemab-irmb (Leqembi) intravenous (IV) maintenance dosing once <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/01/g43219641/fda-approves-leqembi-lecanemab-irmb-iv-maintenance-dosing-for-the-treatment-of-early-alzheimers-di" rel="noreferrer noopener">every four weeks</a>.
Leqembi is indicated for Alzheimer's disease (AD) in patients with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) or mild dementia stage of disease. After 18 months of once every two weeks initiation phase, a transition to the maintenance dosing regimen of 10 mg/kg once every four weeks may be considered or the regimen of 10 mg/kg once every two weeks may be continued.
The FDA and the European Medicines Agency accepted to review supplemental marketing applications seeking approval for a higher dose regimen of nusinersen for spinal muscular atrophy (SMA).
The higher dose regimen of nusinersen comprises a more rapid loading regimen, two 50 mg doses 14 days apart, and a higher maintenance regimen, 28 mg, every 4 months, compared to the approved <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/01/g43156759/fda-and-ema-accept-applications-for-higher-dose-regimen-of-nusinersen-in-sma" rel="noreferrer noopener">nusinersen regimen (Spinraza)</a>.&nbsp;
The European Commission asked the CHMP to consider information on the safety of lecanemab that became available after the adoption of the CHMP opinion in November 2024, whether this may require an update of the opinion, and whether the wording of the risk minimization measures in the opinion is clear enough to ensure correct implementation. These will be discussed at the CHMP <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/01/g43380334/update-on-regulatory-review-of-lecanemab-for-early-alzheimers-disease-in-the-european-union" rel="noreferrer noopener">meeting in February 2025</a>.
Investors are focused on Biogen's growth strategies. This includes expanding its pipeline, pursuing external business development, or leveraging new opportunities to counter declining revenue in the latter&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/42957657/biogens-push-for-sage-therapeutics-could-strengthen-its-neurology-strategy-analysts-say" rel="noreferrer noopener">half of the decade</a>.
In December, Jefferies&nbsp;downgraded&nbsp;Biogen, citing the&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42397286/biogen-downgraded-on-pipeline-setbacks-and-leqembi-sales-slowdown" rel="noreferrer noopener">company's tough setup</a>.
Leqembi (lecanemab) sales growth remains sluggish, falling below consensus projections through 2030.
Challenges like PET scan reimbursement, slow protocol updates at major hospital networks, and identifying eligible patients continue to hinder adoption.
Price Action: BIIB stock is down 2.61% at $138.81 at the last check on Tuesday.

Earnings Scheduled For February 11, 2025

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">New On The Block</h2>
<ul>
<li>Sage Therapeutics, Inc. NASDAQ: SAGE) is officially exploring "strategic alternatives" to make shareholders happy. The process includes anything from a possible business combination to a full-on sale. Who&#8217;s interested? That would be Biogen Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BIIB#NASDAQ">BIIB</a>), which submitted an unsolicited offer Sage rejected. Cambridge, Massachusetts-based Sage is known for its ZURZUVAE treatment for women with PPD. Goldman Sachs is providing financial advice and Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher &amp; Flom LLP oversees legal matters. </li>
<li>Silvus Technologies, a Los Angeles-based mobile telecom owned by TJC, hired Morgan Stanley to explore a sale or initial public offering. TJC could seek a valuation of as much as $5 billion for Silvus, Bloomberg <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-01-30/tjc-is-said-to-weigh-sale-ipo-of-radio-tech-provider-silvus">reported</a> citing sources. TJC, aka The Jordan Company purchased Silvus in December 2019. </li>
<li>Allakos Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ALLK#NASDAQ">ALLK</a>) is shutting down its AK006 program, leading to a major downsizing — about 75% of the company will be laid off. The biotech plans to keep around 15 employees to explore strategic alternatives, which CEO Robert Alexander described as "the usual things," according <a href="https://www.fiercebiotech.com/biotech/allakos-axes-program-lays-75-staff-and-seeks-strategic-alternatives-after-phase-1-flop">to</a> Fierce Biotech. The move will significantly deplete Allakos' cash reserves, which stood at $81 million at the end of last year. The company expects to spend $34 million to $38 million on severance and restructuring costs, leaving it with just $35 million to $40 million in reserves by mid-year. The pressure is on to find a new strategic direction quickly.</li>
</ul>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Updates From The Block</h2>
<ul>
<li>YouTube star Jimmy Donaldson (aka MrBeast) has secured more than <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/43325891/backed-by-youtube-king-mrbeast-group-of-american-investors-including-roblox-ceo-lock-in-over-20-billion-for-tiktok-takeover-but-they-have-not-heard-back-directly-from-bytedance">$20 billion</a> for a TikTok offer. An investor group, led by tech entrepreneur Jesse Tinsley, includes Roblox Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RBLX#NYSE">RBLX</a>) CEO David Baszucki and Anchorage Digital CEO Nathan McCauley as investors. Tinsley <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-01-29/tiktok-bidders-to-offer-significantly-more-than-20-billion?sref=KkPzpZvz">told</a> Bloomberg that their offer is &#8220;significantly higher&#8221; than a competing $20 billion bid. Whether Tinsley was referring to the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/25/01/42834240/kevin-oleary-joins-the-peoples-bid-for-tiktok-as-pending-ban-looms">Project Liberty bid</a> by former Los Angeles Dodgers owner Frank McCourt and &#8220;Shark Tank&#8221; star Kevin O'Leary is unclear. Also uncertain is whether Microsoft was seriously making a bid, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/43260646/microsoft-eyes-tiktok-us-deal-as-trump-confirms-acquisition-talks-are-underway">as indicated by President Trump</a>.</li>

<li>Hewlett Packard Enterprise&#8217;s (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HPE#NYSE">HPE</a>) $14 billion purchase of Juniper Networks (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JNPR#NYSE">JNPR</a>) hit a roadblock. The Department of Justice is suing the tech company in what marks the first antitrust action of Trump's second term. The deal would result in Cisco Systems Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CSCO#NASDAQ">CSCO</a>) and the combined HPE-Juniper entity controlling 70% of the wireless networking industry, regulators <a href="https://www.wsj.com/politics/policy/justice-department-sues-to-block-hewlett-packard-enterprises-bid-for-juniper-networks-99af47ac?mod=deals_news_article_pos1&amp;utm_source=newsletter&amp;utm_medium=email&amp;utm_campaign=newsletter_axiosprorata&amp;stream=top">said</a>.

Deal Dispatch: Sage And Silvus Are Up For Sale, MrBeast Secures $20B For TikTok

Company Board Concludes the Proposal Significantly Undervalues Sage and Believes it is Not in the Best Interest of Shareholders
The Company Remains Focused on the Goal of Establishing ZURZUVAE as the Standard of Care for Women with Postpartum Depression

Sage Therapeutics Initiates Review Of Strategic Alternatives; Rejects Biogen's Unsolicited Acquisition Proposal

President Joe Biden prioritized <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/25/01/43054504/biden-commutes-sentences-of-nearly-2500-convicted-of-non-violent-drug-offenses-no-mention-of-cannabis-prisoners">freeing non-violent drug offenders</a> during his final few days in the White House, but TikTok? That's President-elect Donald Trump's problem now. 
According to the <a href="https://apnews.com/article/tiktok-ban-trump-executive-order-1e95d9836bf6f8c0c245ed1c3234d968">Associated Press</a>, Biden has no intention of enforcing the ban, which takes effect on his last full day in office, Jan. 19, and one day <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/01/42995328/trump-inauguration-from-elon-musk-jeff-bezos-to-barack-obama-george-bush-and-bill-clinton-who-all-will-attend">before Trump&#8217;s inauguration</a>.
With a deadline looming, the app's fate lands in the hands of the so-called People's Bid for TikTok—backed by none other than Kevin O'Leary of &#8220;Shark Tank&#8221; and billionaire Frank McCourt. Apparently, TikTok's U.S. assets are still up for grabs, but no word yet on the price tag or whether a deal can realistically get done <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/social-media/25/01/43060894/supreme-court-upholds-tiktok-ban-ahead-of-trumps-inauguration">in a few days</a>.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Bankruptcy Block</h2>
Joann Inc. is stitching together a bankruptcy plan for the second time within 12 months. The Ohio-based fabric and crafts retailer is seeking a buyer for its portfolio of some 800 stores. 
Gordon Brothers Retail Partners emerged as the &#8220;stalking horse&#8221; bidder, but Joann remains hopeful for better offers—perhaps from someone who knows how to thread the needle.
Previously, the 82-year-old retailer was under the stewardship of private equity firm Leonard Green &amp; Partners, which acquired it via a $1.6 billion leveraged buyout in 2011. The firm buried the company under a pile of debt (<a href="https://wolfstreet.com/2024/03/18/brick-and-mortar-meltdown-fells-another-retailer-joann-inc-files-for-bankruptcy-3-years-after-ipo/">reportedly</a> $921 million in long-term debt as of Oct. 31, 2020) and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/21/03/20048728/ipo-preview-roblox-coupang-joann-lead-busy-week-of-offerings">sent it public in 2021</a>. 
Joann went private again in <a href="https://apnews.com/article/joann-bankruptcy-chapter-11-filing-75093d4032907c59a45e472dd4e23229">March</a> 2024 while under Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection. The company managed to reduce its $1 billion total debt by about $500 million at the time.
Despite efforts to save itself last year, Joann is joining the growing quilt of recent retail casualties: Party City, Big Lots, LL Flooring, The Body Shop and The Container Store <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/legal/24/12/42710619/deal-dispatch-party-city-wraps-big-lots-goes-bust-container-store-continues">to name a few</a>.
Kirkland &amp; Ellis is handling legal matters, while Centerview Partners LLC offers financial advice. Alvarez &amp; Marsal North America, LLC is overseeing the restructuring process.

<ul>
<li>Investment firm KKR &amp; Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KKR#NYSE">KKR</a>) hired Goldman Sachs (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GS#NYSE">GS</a>) to run an auction for its minority stake in Philippine fintech company Maya, Reuters reported. </li>
<li>New York-headquartered KKR owns more than 20% of Maya and the potential sale, if it goes through, could value Maya at more than $2 billion, one of the sources said.</li>
<li>DuPont de Nemours, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DD#NYSE">DD</a>) is looking to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/large-cap/25/01/43028181/chemical-company-dupont-electronics-business-separation-retains-water-business">jettison its electronics business</a>.

<li>Ingevity Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NGVT#NYSE">NGVT</a>) is shopping its Performance Chemicals Industrial Specialties segment, which includes divesting parts of its North Charleston, South Carolina site. The company hopes to improve earnings cash flow and conclude the review process by year-end. Whether a transaction comes about <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/01/43027745/ingevity-explores-strategic-options-for-performance-chemicals-segment-to-strengthen-portfolio-projects-fy24-revenue-at-1-40-billion">remains to be seen</a>. </li>
<li>S&amp;W Seed Company (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SANW#NASDAQ">SANW</a>) is up for sale. It&#8217;s also considering a merger or recapitalization as part of a larger strategic review. The Longmont, Colorado-based company has already sold its Australia subsidiary. &#8220;We continue to support all initiatives that optimize shareholder value and will consider the full range of potential strategic alternatives to ensure S&amp;W Seed is best positioned for future success,&#8221; chairman Alan Willits said.</li>

<li>Lourenco Goncalves raised eyebrows during a Monday press conference. According to <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-01-14/cliffs-ceo-rips-evil-japan-and-doubles-down-on-america-first">Bloomberg</a>, the CEO of Cleveland-Cliffs Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CLF#NYSE">CLF</a>) called Japan, a U.S. ally, &#8220;evil&#8221; and accused it of teaching China harmful practices like dumping and overproduction. His comments came as Cleveland-Cliffs eyes a new bid for U.S. Steel (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/X#NYSE">X</a>), following Biden&#8217;s decision to block Nippon Steel&#8216;s (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NPSCY#OTC">NPSCY</a>) <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/01/42787508/biden-blocks-14-9b-us-steel-takeover-shares-plunge">$14 billion acquisition attempt</a>. While positioning his company as a potential buyer, Goncalves&#8217; rhetoric escalated tensions within the steel industry. Nippon is now looking to Trump to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/01/42994950/nippon-steel-eyes-trump-administration-to-revive-15b-us-steel-deal-blocked-by-biden-well-do-whatever-it-takes">help close the deal</a>. </li>
<li>T-Mobile (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TMUS#NASDAQ">TMUS</a>) will buy Vistar Media for $600 million. The telecom company expects the deal to strengthen its advertising business, Reuters reported. </li>
</ul>
Deals in the biotech and pharmaceutical sectors piled up this week. Here&#8217;s a sample of Benzinga&#8217;s coverage:
<ul>
<li>Biogen Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BIIB#NASDAQ">BIIB</a>) submitted an unsolicited bid to acquire all of the outstanding shares of Sage Therapeutics Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SAGE#NASDAQ">SAGE</a>) that it does not already own <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/42957657/biogens-push-for-sage-therapeutics-could-strengthen-its-neurology-strategy-analysts-say">for $7.22 per share</a>. Goldman Sachs analyst Salveen Richter believes the proposal makes strategic sense, considering the financial success of the Zurzuvae launch for postpartum depression (PPD).</li>
<li>GSK plc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GSK#NYSE">GSK</a>) <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/42950025/gsk-to-buy-us-based-stomach-cancer-drug-developer-for-over-1-billion">agreed to acquire</a> IDRx, Inc., a biopharmaceutical company focused on precision therapeutics for gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST), for $1 billion.

12 Health Care Stocks Moving In Monday's Pre-Market Session

Biogen Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BIIB#NASDAQ">BIIB</a>) submitted an unsolicited bid to acquire all of the outstanding shares of Sage Therapeutics Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SAGE#NASDAQ">SAGE</a>) that it does not already owned by Biogen <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/42946734/why-is-depression-focused-sage-therapeutics-stock-surging-higher-on-monday" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">for $7.22 per share</a>.
Goldman Sachs analyst Salveen Richter believes the proposal makes strategic sense, considering the financial success of the Zurzuvae launch for postpartum depression (PPD).
Biogen says Zurzuvae exceeded its expectations.
Also Read: <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42397286/biogen-downgraded-on-pipeline-setbacks-and-leqembi-sales-slowdown" rel="noreferrer noopener">Biogen Downgraded On Pipeline Setbacks And Leqembi Sales Slowdown</a>
Goldman Sachs estimates Zurzuvae could reach global peak sales of approximately $700 million for PPD by 2034.
Richter notes that investors remain focused on Biogen&#8217;s growth strategies. This includes expanding its pipeline, pursuing external business development, or leveraging new opportunities to counter declining revenue in the latter <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/BIIB/analyst-ratings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">half of the decade</a>.
During the third quarter earnings call, management highlighted the potential for an $8 billion to $10 billion deal within the next two years, primarily focusing on rare diseases and immunology.
They also emphasized continued interest in neurology while acknowledging the strength of Biogen&#8217;s immunology capabilities from its multiple sclerosis franchise and the need to diversify further.
William Blair has consistently seen Zurzuvae&#8217;s role in treating postpartum depression as less significant to Biogen&#8217;s overall value. Instead, the firm prioritizes the progress of Biogen&#8217;s late-stage programs and improvements in Leqembi&#8217;s treatment profile.
Analyst Myles Minter suggests that while the deal may not boost Biogen&#8217;s stock, it provides a smart strategy for marketing Zurzuvae and maximizing its value.
If the deal is finalized, Biogen should consider acquiring more companies in the neuropsychiatry field to strengthen its collaboration with Zurzuvae, Minter says.
Price Action: Biogen stock is up 0.34% at $150.32 at last check Monday.

In November 2020, Biogen and&nbsp;Sage Therapeutics executed a global collaboration and license agreement to jointly develop and commercialize zuranolone (SAGE-217) for major depressive disorder (MDD), postpartum depression (PPD) and other psychiatric disorders and SAGE-324 for essential tremor and other neurological disorders.
The <a target="_blank" href="https://investors.biogen.com/news-releases/news-release-details/biogen-and-sage-therapeutics-announce-global-collaboration" rel="noreferrer noopener">deal</a> included an upfront payment of $875 million and a $650 million equity investment. Sage was also eligible to receive up to approximately $1.6 billion in potential milestone payments.
Over the last five years, Sage stock has slumped 90%.
In October last year, Sage Therapeutics announced a strategic reorganization of its business operations to support the ongoing launch of Zurzuvae (zuranolone)&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/10/b41376682/sage-therapeutics-announces-strategic-reorganization-to-prioritize-zurzuvae-commercialization-and-" rel="noreferrer noopener">in postpartum depression</a>.
