Y-mAbs Therapeutics shares fell on Monday after the company reported a worse-than-expected loss for the second quarter and disappointing guidance for the year.
Shares are trading down 20% to $9. However, shares are up 62% on a 12-month basis.
The New York-based company said its second-quarter loss widened to $9.25 million, or 21 cents a share, from a loss of $6.3 million, or 14 cents a share, in the comparable quarter a year ago. This compares with market expectations for a loss of 12 cents a share, according to FactSet.
Total revenue, which mainly consists of sales for its neuroblastoma treatment Danyelza, rose to $22.8 million from $20.8 million last year. The increase was mainly driven by increased international revenue.
Looking ahead, Y-mAbs expects 2024 revenue to be between $87 million and $95 million. Analysts polled by FactSet forecast revenue of $95.2 million.
