As discussed above, the company is starting to get folks fired up again on the strength of its recent announcement that it has executed a collaboration agreement with SIMFO GmbH. That places the company in close quarters with an established world leader in cancer diagnostics and liquid biopsies in the EU.
The action from a technical perspective is somewhat encouraging in recent days, with the stock finally finding some support just under the $1/share level. The company’s latest press release comes at a time when the chart for the stock had been in the process of what appears to be a “higher low” double bottom, which is often an encouraging pattern. It’s been a long, slow, steady correction for shareholders in the name, but the latest development has a chance to offer some healing, and possibly a new tone to the action.
In terms of the new tests that will be available to cancer patients who send blood samples and receive supportive data for their physicians to optimize and personally tailor their cannabinoid treatment, SIMFO has already commenced preclinical studies on cannabinoid antitumor activity and drug development utilizing Cannabics Pharmaceuticals’ proprietary cannabinoid formulations.
Dr. Eyal Ballan, Co-founder and CTO, said: “We are honored to work hand in hand with SIMFO’s noted scientists and physicians. We believe our collaboration will pave the way for highly effective natural anticancer therapy.”
Traders will note 41% piled on for shareholders of the listing during the trailing month, but this action is running counter to the larger trend in the name. This is emblematic of the stock. CNBX has a track record that includes a number of dramatic bounces.
Furthermore, the name has seen interest climb, with an increase in recent trading volume of 17% over what the stock has registered over the longer term. This is particularly important given the stock’s limited trading float of under 22M shares. As savvy traders are well aware, with such a tight trading float, this kind of ramping interest can force a supply-shock squeeze.
Now commanding a market cap of $141.3M, CNBX has a bankroll ($567K) of cash on the books, which stands against virtually no total current liabilities. CNBX is pulling in trailing 12-month revenues of $101K. However, the company is seeing declines on the top line on a quarterly y/y basis, with revenues falling at -90.1%. This may be a very interesting story and we will look forward to updating it again soon.
