Jonathan Wolleben has given his Buy rating due to a combination of factors that highlight Skye Bioscience’s strategic decisions and financial health. The company’s decision to accelerate the timeline for top-line data from the Phase 2a trial of nimacimab, without an interim data cut, is seen as a prudent move that mitigates potential risks associated with interim variability. This approach, combined with the extension of the trial to collect 52 weeks of treatment data, is expected to bolster investor confidence in the safety and efficacy of nimacimab.
Furthermore, Skye Bioscience’s financial position is robust, with $68 million in cash at the end of 2024, providing a sufficient runway through at least the first quarter of 2027. The company’s operational expenses were in line with expectations, and the quick enrollment in the CBeyond trial reflects strong enthusiasm for nimacimab’s differentiated mechanism. These elements collectively support the positive outlook on Skye Bioscience’s stock.
