What’s happening?

There are no signs of analyst upgrades or increased targeted per share price of the INO to justify the rising behavior of INO stock. However, INO stock faced a massive drop of 30% during the last trading session after the announcement on Friday, April 23, 2021, that it’s funding for late-stage study testing of COVID-19 vaccine candidate has been stopped by the U.S government due to the excessive availability of authorized vaccine in the country. However, funding for the ongoing mid-stage study testing will continue for the vaccine candidate of INO by the U.S government.
The stopping of the fund for the late-stage study testing of a COVID-19 vaccine candidate resulted from the changing environment of COVID-19 amid the rapid development of vaccines and does not reflect the awardee or product. Moreover, this decision is also not a reflection of any data released for the INO-4800 vaccine. INO stock will continue to perform other operations with the U.S. government without any effect.
Inovio is planning for a late-stage global study with its global collaborators INOVIO’s China partner, Advaccine, and the International Vaccine Institute (IVI,) based on the upcoming results related to safety and immunogenicity from mid-stage trial.
