Shares of Avalo Therapeutics Inc (AVTX) dropped by 11.53% from $0.198 to $0.175 in the trading on Friday, August 4, 2023. The reason why AVTX down is due to its lower-than-expected quarterly earnings report.
- Avalo Therapeutics reported a loss of $0.59 per share, surpassing the Zacks Consensus Estimate, which had predicted a loss of $0.90 per share. This earnings surprise amounted to 34.44%, indicating that the company performed better than expected in terms of profitability.

Shares of Avalo Therapeutics Inc (AVTX) dropped by 88.69% from $4.420 to $0.500 in the trading on Monday, June 26, 2023. The reason why AVTX down is due to disappointing results of its AVTX-002 drug trial for non-eosinophilic asthma (NEA). The study failed to meet its primary endpoint of reduction in asthma-related events.
The mid-stage PEAK study evaluated the safety and efficacy of AVTX-002 for the treatment of poorly controlled NEA in 91 patients. The patients were divided into two cohorts, receiving either a 600 mg dose of AVTX-002 or placebo subcutaneously at days 0, 28, and 56. After 12 weeks of treatment, the efficacy and safety of AVTX-002 were evaluated in comparison with treatment with placebo through week 14. AVTX-002 showed a favorable safety and tolerability profile, but it did not meet the primary endpoint of the study.
Shares of Avalo Therapeutics Inc (AVTX) dropped by 7.80% from $2.820 to $2.600 in the trading on Friday, May 5, 2023. The reason why AVTX down is due to its disappointing Q1 results.
- Avalo Therapeutics reported a quarterly loss of $0.85 per share, which, surprisingly, was better than the Zacks Consensus Estimate of a loss of $0.97 per share. This resulted in an earnings surprise of 12.37%. However, despite this positive earnings surprise, investors seemed concerned about other aspects of the company's performance.
- In addition to the better-than-expected earnings, the company reported quarterly revenues of $0.48 million. While this might sound positive, it actually missed the Zacks Consensus Estimate by a significant margin, coming in 52.50% below expectations. This revenue miss likely contributed to the negative sentiment surrounding the stock.
