The negative news

Since my previous coverage, a lot of positive news has come out of BTAI. The most important one is the NDA, which we just discussed. The other one is about its next pipeline program, acute agitation in dementia patients. The company just completed the phase 1b/2 TRANQUILITY trial in this indication. Key highlights of their announcement were:

Why is the stock down

Despite all this good news, the stock fell because BXCL501, despite meeting its primary endpoint, had a poor show in safety and tolerability in its phase 1b/2 opioid withdrawal study. Key highlights were:

Market

The confusing safety data from that one trial may have spooked investors; however, I believe the stock isn’t simply depressed, but rather it is correcting itself after an untenable bullish trend. The stock was trading at $6 in early December 2019. Then it announced the start of the pivotal phase 3 trials, and it began moving up.

Competition

In my previous coverage, I wrote that the company estimates that 13 million patients experience agitation every year in the U.S., with up to 22 million at risk, suffering from various neuropsychiatric disorders, including schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, dementia, delirium, and opioid withdrawal.

Financials

Antipsychotics and benzodiazepines are currently utilized to treat acute agitation. These have below-optimal safety and compliance issues. Antipsychotics have black box warnings for use in the elderly.

Bottom line

BTAI has a market cap of $777mn and a cash reserve of $194mn. Institutions are heavily invested in the company. Insiders, however, are not buying recently.
