The latest update is out from Legend Biotech ( (LEGN) ).

On January 20, 2026, Legend Biotech Corporation reshaped its boardroom, appointing GenScript chairman and executive director Robin Meng as a Class III director to serve until the company’s 2026 annual general meeting, replacing outgoing director Li Zhu. On the same date, directors Li Zhu and Yau Wai Man Philip resigned from the board, with the company emphasizing that their departures did not stem from any dispute over operations or policies; in recognition of Yau’s contributions, the board’s compensation committee approved accelerated vesting of his remaining restricted share units and a one-time cash payment of $56,250 for his foregone 2026 board fees, while appointing Tomas Heyman as the new chair of the audit committee, signaling a continuation of board refreshment and governance continuity amid close alignment with major shareholder GenScript.

Spark’s Take on LEGN Stock

According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, LEGN is a Neutral.

The score is most constrained by weak financial performance (ongoing losses and negative operating/free cash flow) and bearish technicals (price below major moving averages with negative MACD). These are partially offset by a positive earnings-call outlook driven by strong CARVYKTI growth, expanding international demand, and improved labeling that could support the path to profitability.
