Why Micron Stock Popped Again Today
Key Points Micron changed its guidance today, raising forecasts for revenue and profit. The company earned only $0.70 last year per share, but could earn more than $8 this year. Micron's free cash flow continues to lag reported net income. 10 stocks we like better than Micron Technology › Micron (NASDAQ: MU) updated investors this morning with new guidance for its fiscal Q4 2025, which is currently underway. Shares of the semiconductor stock jumped 2.5% through 12:15 p.m. ET in response. What's Micron earning in Q4? Previously, Micron had told investors it would collect $10.7 billion in Q4 revenue, plus or minus $300 million -- so $11 billion max. Now, the company says it will beat that number, aiming for $11.2 billion, and potentially as much as $11.3 billion, and certainly more than $11 billion. Gross profit margins earned are also inching higher, with 43.5% the target instead of a previous guess of 41%. As a result, Micron is boosting its bottom-line forecast. Instead of $2.14 to $2.44, management says the company could earn from $2.57 to $2.71 per share. That's an extra $0.35 per share in profit. Management -- understandably -- tooted its own horn a bit, crediting "improved pricing, particularly in DRAM" for the extra earnings it expects to make, but also "strong execution." Is Micron stock a buy now? Once analysts get around to adding the extra $0.35 to their forecasts, it should raise consensus estimates to $8.17 for this year's Micron earnings per share. On a $122 share price, that works out to a P/E ratio of about 15 -- not a very high multiple for a stock that's now expecting to grow full-year earnings 600% year over year! All this said, Micron hasn't yet stated what its free cash flow for the year might be, and right now, it's FCF that's Micron's Achilles' heel (it's running about one-third of reported net income). Speaking personally, I'm going to wait and see that number before deciding to change my mind and declare Micron stock a buy. Do the experts think Micron Technology is a buy right now? The Motley Fool's expert analyst team, drawing on years of investing experience and deep analysis of thousands of stocks, leverages our proprietary Moneyball AI investing database to uncover top opportunities.

IO Biotech Announces Clinical Improvement in Progression Free Survival Demonstrated in Pivotal Phase 3 Trial of Cylembio® plus KEYTRUDA® (Pembrolizumab) for the Treatment of First-line Advanced Melanoma, but Statistical Significance Narrowly Missed
Patients treated with Cylembio (imsapepimut and etimupepimut, adjuvanted) plus pembrolizumab achieved improvement in progression free survival (PFS) compared to patients treated with pembrolizumab monotherapy, HR=0.77 (CI 0.58-1.00), (p=0.056), with median PFS (mPFS) of 19.4 months vs. 11.0 months, respectively; the results on the primary endpoint narrowly missed the study's statistical significance threshold of p≤0.045 In patients enrolled in this study without prior neo-adjuvant/adjuvant anti-PD-1 treatment (n=371), patients treated with Cylembio plus pembrolizumab achieved improvement in PFS, HR: 0.74 (CI 0.56-0.98) (nominal p=0.037), with mPFS of 24.8 months vs. 11.0 months for the control arm Improvement in PFS was achieved across virtually all subgroups, including those with poor prognostic factors A profound effect was observed in patients with PD-L1 negative tumors treated with Cylembio plus pembrolizumab, HR: 0.54 (CI 0.35-0.85) (nominal p=0.006), with mPFS of 16.6 months vs. 3.0 months for the control arm A trend towards improvement in overall survival (OS) was observed in patients treated with Cylembio plus pembrolizumab (OS not yet mature), HR=0.79 (CI 0.57-1.10) Cylembio plus pembrolizumab was well tolerated, with no new safety signals observed IO Biotech plans to meet with the FDA this fall to discuss the data and next steps for a potential regulatory submission Company to host conference call today at 8:30 a.m. ET to discuss these results NEW YORK, Aug. 11, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- IO Biotech (Nasdaq: IOBT) today announces topline results from the pivotal Phase 3 trial of its investigational, immune-modulatory, off-the-shelf therapeutic cancer vaccine, Cylembio® (imsapepimut and etimupepimut, adjuvanted). The trial evaluated Cylembio in combination with Merck's anti-PD-1 therapy, KEYTRUDA® (pembrolizumab), vs. pembrolizumab alone as a first-line treatment in 407 patients with unresectable or metastatic (advanced) melanoma. In the study, Cylembio plus pembrolizumab demonstrated clinical improvement in progression free survival compared to pembrolizumab alone, but statistical significance was narrowly missed on the primary endpoint. 'In this study, we observed a highly encouraging improvement in progression free survival and consistent trend in overall survival in patients treated with Cylembio,' said Mai-Britt Zocca, PhD, president and chief executive officer of IO Biotech. 'The magnitude and durability of clinical effect observed consistently across subgroups supports our confidence in Cylembio and its potential as a treatment for advanced melanoma patients. We look forward to engaging with the FDA to determine a potential path to approval based on these data.' The randomized, open-label study enrolled 407 patients across more than 100 sites worldwide. Patients received either Cylembio in combination with pembrolizumab (n=203) or pembrolizumab alone (n=204). The primary endpoint was PFS as assessed by a blinded independent review committee per RECIST v1.1. The early and sustained separation of PFS curves demonstrated an improvement with a hazard ratio of 0.77 [95% CI: 0.58-1.00; p=0.056; threshold for significance p≤0.045]. Based on an intent-to-treat analysis, patients in the study treated with Cylembio in combination with pembrolizumab achieved 19.4 months of median progression free survival compared to 11.0 months in patients treated with pembrolizumab alone. Although not yet mature, a trend toward an improvement in overall survival was also observed [HR 0.79 (95% CI: 0.57-1.10)]; the company expects OS to mature over the next six to nine months. Improvement in PFS was achieved across virtually all subgroups, including those with poor prognostic factors, with a profound effect in patients with PD-L1 negative tumors treated with Cylembio plus pembrolizumab (n=67) compared to patients treated with pembrolizumab monotherapy (n=63), HR: 0.54 (CI 0.35-0.85) (nominal p=0.006), with mPFS of 16.6 months vs. 3.0 months, respectively. Additionally, in a post hoc analysis of patients enrolled in this study without prior anti-PD-1 treatment (n=371), patients treated with Cylembio plus pembrolizumab achieved improvement in PFS compared to patients treated with pembrolizumab monotherapy, HR: 0.74 (CI 0.56-0.98) (nominal p=0.037), with mPFS of 24.8 months vs. 11.0 months, respectively. The combination was well tolerated, with no new safety signals observed. Injection site reactions, which were transient and resolved on treatment, were the most commonly reported adverse events in the combination arm, with 56% of patients receiving Cylembio plus pembrolizumab reporting an event. 'In this study, patients treated with Cylembio in combination with pembrolizumab have achieved the longest median PFS ever observed in a Phase 3 clinical study in advanced melanoma, and in the PD-L1 negative population, patients achieved a remarkable 16.6 months of median PFS, compared to 3.0 months in patients treated with pembrolizumab alone,' said Omid Hamid, MD, Director, Clinical Research and Immunotherapy at The Angeles Clinic and Research Institute, A Cedars Sinai Affiliate. 'The significant benefit seen across patients with poor prognostic factors, including PD-L1 negative patients, cannot be overlooked. Given the notable safety profile and the strong clinical effect observed with Cylembio, as well as the unmet need in advanced melanoma patients, Cylembio, if approved, has the potential to become a new standard of care for patients with advanced melanoma.' 'These data show the potential of a therapeutic cancer vaccine in patients with metastatic melanoma,' said Jessica Hassel, MD, Professor at the Department of Dermatology and National Center for Tumor Diseases at the University Hospital Heidelberg, Germany, and lead enrolling investigator for the Phase 3 trial. 'We were thrilled to play such an important part in this study and to have had the ability to offer our patients an investigational therapy that potentially offers improvements in PFS while not adding significant systemic toxicity.' 'Delaying progression and improving survival is the ultimate treatment goal for patients and although overall survival is not yet mature, the trend we are seeing in OS with separation of the curves is encouraging, with a consistent PFS clinical improvement and OS trend favoring the combination arm across virtually all subgroups, with no new safety signals or significant additional systemic toxicity,' said Qasim Ahmad, MD, chief medical officer of IO Biotech. 'We are deeply grateful to the patients for their participation in this study, as well as to investigators and study coordinators whose dedication and collaboration brings us one step closer to delivering a new treatment option to patients in need.' 'Since reporting the positive outcome of our Phase 1/2 study (MM1636) in a similar patient population, we have been eagerly awaiting these results supporting the activity of Cylembio combined with an anti-PD-1 in patients with advanced melanoma,' said Inge Marie Svane, MD, PhD, Professor, Director of the National Center for Cancer Immune Therapy (CCIT) at the Copenhagen University Hospital, Herlev and Principal Investigator in the Phase 3 trial. 'These data provide evidence that a therapeutic cancer vaccine can improve progression free survival in patients with metastatic disease.' Based on these results, IO Biotech plans to meet with the United States (US) Food and Drug Administration (FDA) this fall to discuss the totality of data and determine next steps for submission of a Biologics License Application (BLA) for the treatment of advanced melanoma. Additionally, the company plans to present more detailed results from the IOB-013 study at an upcoming medical meeting. Conference Call and Webcast Information IO Biotech management will hold a conference call and webcast today at 8:30 a.m. ET to discuss these clinical data results. Participants can register for the live webcast here. The live webcast and replay will be available through IO Biotech's website here.
