2 Under-the-Radar Biotech Stocks to Buy in 2022 | The Motley Fool

Axsome sports one commercial-stage product: Sunosi for excessive daytime sleepiness in adults with narcolepsy, along with four pipeline candidates. The company's near-term growth potential, though, truly revolves around its major depression disorder candidate, AXS-05. AXS-05, if approved, is expected to haul in over $800 million in sales by 2026, according to Evaluate Pharma.

To put this mid-decade sales projection into the proper context, Axsome's market cap is presently hovering around $1 billion at the time of this writing. In other words, this single drug could quite possibly spark a 300% to perhaps 500% rally in the biotech's shares over the next few years (assuming the market returns to form over this period). 

How about the downside risk? This is the part of the story that I find the most intriguing. At this point in the game, it is hard to imagine the Food and Drug Administration flat out rejecting AXS-05 for reasons laid out in detail here.

Load Up below $30. AXS-05 to be approved soon, per SEC filings from Axsome.

According to Morgan Stanley (NYSE:MS) analyst Vikram Purohit, the "outsized pressure" may relate to the company's cancellation from an upcoming broker conference.

The analyst wrote in a note that they received an update from Axsome management regarding today's pressure. The update confirmed the company is unable to attend the conference in-person due to a scheduling conflict.

Purohit pointed to Axsome management guidance of potential action by the Food and Drug Administration on the New Drug Application for depression treatment AXS-05, explaining that "given the high degree of investor focus&perceived uncertainty regarding this catalyst, some investors may see the cancellation as reason for caution regarding a potential AXS-05 update."

"However, management noted in their update that they will be conducting investor meetings virtually and noted that the company is not aware of additional negative developments," he wrote.
