Why Chugai stock jumped on Tuesday

On Tuesday, shares of Chugai Pharmaceutical (TADAWUL:2070) Co. Ltd. closed 3.4% higher, outperforming the broader TOPIX index’s performance by approximately 4%.

The rise in share price is believed to be a delayed reaction to the recent approval of Nemolizumab by the U.S. health regulators. Nemolizumab, a drug licensed from Chugai, was given the green light last week for use in the United States by Galderma.

The increase in Chugai’s stock value comes on the heels of the company’s research and development meeting held on Tuesday morning. The meeting primarily concentrated on programs that have been in-licensed, and the overall takeaway was neutral.

However, the positive market response may be attributed to the success of Nemolizumab in the U.S. market, which represents a significant milestone for Chugai.

The approval by U.S. authorities of Nemolizumab, which is used for treating various dermatological conditions, has created a positive sentiment around Chugai’s shares.

Since Galderma is the licensee for Nemolizumab, the approval indirectly benefits Chugai, highlighting the potential financial and strategic gains from its licensing agreements.

Investors’ response to the R&D meeting, coupled with the news of the U.S. approval, suggests confidence in Chugai’s pipeline and its strategy of in-licensing programs.

While the R&D meeting did not significantly alter the company’s outlook, the approval of Nemolizumab has evidently provided a boost to the company’s share value.
