What's Going On With Danish Healthcare Firm Genmab Stock?
Portfolio Pulse from Vandana Singh
An appeal arbitrator dismissed Genmab A/S's (NASDAQ:GMAB) bid for additional milestone and royalty payments from Janssen Biotech Inc, a unit of Johnson & Johnson (NYSE:JNJ), related to Darzalex (daratumumab). The decision will not affect Genmab's 2024 financial guidance. William Blair maintains a Market Perform rating on Genmab, citing strong growth from diverse revenue sources but limited initial commercial potential for Tivdak and epcoritamab. GMAB shares dropped 3.28% to $27.74.
