In this article:

NBIX is a biopharmaceutical company that discovers, develops, and markets drugs to treat neurological and endocrine-related illnesses. The company’s product portfolio continues to grow after it received regulatory approval in April for Ingrezza Sprinkle capsules, a drug that treats adults afflicted by Huntington’s disease.

On the financial front, in March the company reported quarterly revenue of $515.3 million and a net profit of $43.4 million. As for the future, NBIX’s total sales are expected to jump more than 15% in fiscal 2024 and 2025, with projections eclipsing $2 billion. Per-share earnings in 2024 are slated to rise by 71% to $4.22 versus $2.47 last year.

It’s no wonder NBIX shares are up 9% this year – and they could rise more. MAPsignals data shows how Big Money investors are betting heavily on the forward picture of the stock.
