Viking Therapeutics' Swing Trade Potential Emerges - Competition/Dilution Risks Remain

Viking Therapeutics' Swing Trade Potential Emerges - Competition/Dilution Risks Remain

VKTX remains a Buy for its cheap FY2030 EV/Sales valuations of 2.28x, the strong clinical trial results exceeding legacy players, and the potential GLP-1 monetization upon US FDA approval. The management has also prudently focused on the oral/subcutaneous VK2735 clinical trials, potentially stretching their balance sheet over the next two years of unprofitability before requiring any capital raises. Execution risks persist, due to VKTX's Phase 3 trial completion no earlier than 2027 and commercialization sometime in 2028, along with future dilution risks from negative cash flows.

Viking Therapeutics: Prepping For A Critical 2026

Viking Therapeutics is positioned for a pivotal 2026, advancing both injectable and oral VK2735 in obesity, with pipeline depth from an emerging amylin agonist program. VKTX's oral VK2735 has demonstrated unmatched double-digit weight loss in 13 weeks, potentially establishing leadership in the oral obesity drug segment.
