Business Outlook
SBTX had made significant operational progress as it witnessed a transition from a development company to a commercialized company. The Company had completed the commercialization of AxisBiotix-Ps™ and planned to target the US and UK markets initially, with the EU following very shortly. Meanwhile, the Company would continue to commence the development of additional potential products targeted at assisting in alleviating skin conditions. Considering the penny nature of the stock, SBTX may undergo sizeable correction because of the rising interest rates prospect and lower-than-expected UK GDP growth. Overall, the Company aimed to deliver long-term growth by focusing more on customer needs, and clients can take a reasonable position based on their risk appetite.
Considering the commercial launch of AxisBiotix-Ps™, adequate cash balance, broadening of the shareholding base, and support from the valuation as done using the above method, we have given a “Speculative Buy” recommendation on SkinBioTherapeutics PLC at the current market price of GBX 55.10 (as of 25 November 2021 at 10:30 AM GMT), with lower-double digit upside potential based on 79.24x EV/NTM Sales (approx.) on FY22E sales (approx.).
