BioAge Labs, Inc. (BIOA): A Bull Case Theory
We came across a bullish thesis on BioAge Labs, Inc. (BIOA) on Substack by Ragnarok Research. In this article, we will summarize the bulls' thesis on BIOA. BioAge Labs, Inc. (BIOA)'s share was trading at $3.87 as of April 17th. A biopharmaceutical laboratory with researchers at work analyzing complex molecules. BioAge Labs (BIOA) represents a classic "cigarette butt" investment—an overlooked and beaten-down company that still has a few valuable puffs left. Following the abrupt halt of its STRIDES Phase 2 clinical trial for the obesity drug Azelaprag in December 2024, due to elevated liver enzymes in several patients, shares collapsed by over 76%. This sharp decline led investors to assume the company had no remaining value. However, BioAge retains meaningful worth both in its balance sheet and in the long-term potential of its income statement. The market's overreaction has created a significant mispricing. With limited downside and credible hidden value, it fits the mold of a cigar butt stock—one discarded by the market but still capable of delivering strong returns. The investment case is based on the belief that BioAge's current valuation ignores both its asset base and future income potential, with a price target of $7 per share reflecting its true worth. BioAge Labs, Inc. (BIOA) is not on our list of the 30 Most Popular Stocks Among Hedge Funds. As per our database, 13 hedge fund portfolios held BIOA at the end of the fourth quarter which was 17 in the previous quarter. While we acknowledge the risk and potential of BIOA as an investment, our conviction lies in the belief that some AI stocks hold greater promise for delivering higher returns, and doing so within a shorter timeframe. If you are looking for an AI stock that is more promising than BIOA but that trades at less than 5 times its earnings, check out our report about the cheapest AI stock.

Grabar Law Office Investigates Claims on Behalf of Long-Term Shareholders of BioAge Labs, Inc. (NASDAQ: BIOA); NAPCO Security Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: NSSC); Treace Medical Concepts, Inc. (NASDAQ: TMCI); and Virtu Financial Inc. (NASDAQ: VIRT)
PHILADELPHIA, April 17, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- BioAge Labs, Inc. (NASDAQ: BIOA) If you have held BioAge Labs, Inc. (NASDAQ: BIOA) shares continuously since on or shortly after its September 26, 2024 IPO, you can seek corporate reforms, the return of funds back to the Company, and a court approved incentive award at no cost you. Visit contact Joshua H. Grabar at [email protected] or call 267-507-6085 to learn more. Why? BioAge completed its initial public offering on September 27, 2024, selling 12.65 million shares at $18 per share. However, less than three months later, on December 6, 2024, BioAge announced that it would discontinue the ongoing STRIDES Phase 2 study of its investigational drug candidate azelaprag after liver transaminitis was observed in some subjects receiving azelapgrag. In response to the news, BioAge's stock price declined from $20.09 per share on December 6, 2024 to $4.65 per share on December 7, 2024. Following this news, a federal securities fraud class action complaint was filed in which it is alleged that BioAge and ten of its Officers and Directors made materially false and/or misleading statements in its initial public offering concerning its STRIDES Phase 2 clinical trial and that these investors sustained damages as a result thereof. Specifically, it is alleged that BioAge's final prospectus for its IPO represented the significance and benefits of azelaprag for the treatment of obesity in older adults. Defendants touted BioAge's lead product candidate azelaprag in connection with the Company's ongoing STRIDES with expectations of topline results in 2025. Defendants also mentioned its collaboration with Lilly's Chorus clinical development organization who would be advising and assisting on all aspects of the STRIDES trial design and execution. Defendants further discussed the potential for a second Phase 2 clinical trial combining azelaprag and semaglutide to treat obesity in individuals ages 18 years and older. Therefore, the initial public offering represented to the public that there were no safety concerns and the Company expected top line results and to meet its primary endpoint goals in connection with its STRIDES clinical trial. Contrary to these representations, BioAge discontinued the ongoing STRIDES Phase 2 study of its investigational drug candidate azelaprag after several subjects showed elevated levels of liver enzymes warning of potential organ damage. As a result, Defendants discontinued the clinical trial and halted further enrollment. Given the fact that Defendants failure to disclose the potential for liver transaminitis in any of its previous clinical Phase 1 trials and various preclinical tox studies, Defendants' statements in BioAge's registration statement were allegedly false and/or materially misleading at the time of the initial public offering. What You Can Do Now? Current BioAge shareholders who have held BioAge shares since on or shortly after its September 26, 2024 IPO, can seek corporate reforms, the return of funds back to the company, and a court approved incentive award at no cost to them whatsoever. If you would like to learn more about this matter, you are encouraged to visit contact us at [email protected], or call 267-507-6085. #BioAge $BIOA NAPCO Security Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: NSSC) Class Action Survives Motion to Dismiss If you are a Current NAPCO (NASDAQ: NSSC) shareholder who has held NAPCO shares since prior to November 7, 2022, you can seek corporate reforms, the return of funds back to the company, and a court approved incentive award at no cost to you whatsoever. Click here to join or learn more: contact Joshua H. Grabar at [email protected], or call 267-507-6085. Why? Key allegations in a recently filed securities fraud class action complaint have survived a motion to dismiss. That complaint alleges that NAPCO Security Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: NSSC), through certain of its officers and directors, made materially false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (1) NAPCO failed to address any material weaknesses with internal controls regarding cost of goods sold ('COGS') and inventory; (2) NAPCO downplayed the severity of material weaknesses regarding their internal controls; (3) NAPCO's unaudited financial statements from September 30, 2022 to the present included 'certain errors' such as overstating inventory and understanding net COGS, resulting in overstated gross profit, operating income and net income for each period; (4) as a result, NAPCO would need to restate its previously filed unaudited financial statements for certain periods; and (5) as a result, Defendants' statements about its business, operations, and prospects, were materially false and misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis at all relevant times. On April 11, 2025, the federal court determined that key allegations would survive Defendants' motion to dismiss the complaint. In so doing, the Court stated: 'Plaintiffs have adequately stated Exchange Act claims by pleading scienter [knowledge of wrongdoing] through defendants' unusual stock sales and by plausibly alleging loss causation between the corrective announcement and stock price drop. Plaintiffs have also stated Securities Act claims against NAPCO and the underwriter defendants.' 'Taking the well-pleaded facts as true, there is no question that plaintiffs have adequately pled scienter. First, the stock sales were highly unusual in timing and amount. As to amount, the total proceeds of over $108 million from stock sales by the officer defendants weigh in favor of a motive. . . . And the officer defendants sold hefty percentages of their holdings – 48.5% for Soloway and 45.5% for Buchel.' What To Do Now: If you have held NAPCO shares since prior to November 7, 2022, you can seek corporate reforms, the return of funds back to the company, and a court approved incentive award at no cost to you whatsoever.

(NASDAQ: TMCI), via certain of its officers, made materially false and/or misleading statements and failed to disclose adverse facts about the Company's business, operations, and prospects. Specifically, the Complaint alleges Defendants failed to disclose that: (1) competition impacted the demand for and utilization of its primary product, the Lapiplasty 3D Bunion Correction System; (2) as a result, Treace Medical's revenue declined, and the Company needed to accelerate its plans to offer a product that served as an alternative to osteotomy (a surgical procedure involving the cutting and realignment of a bone to improve its position or function); and (3) Defendants' positive statements about the Company's business, operations, and prospects were materially misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis.

WHY: A securities fraud class action complaint alleges that Virtu Financial (NASDAQ: VIRT), via certain of its officers, made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (i) the Company maintained deficient policies and procedures with respect to its information access barriers; (ii) accordingly, Virtu had overstated the Company's operational and technological efficacy as well as its capacity to block the exchange of confidential information between departments or individuals within the Company; (iii) the foregoing deficiencies increased the likelihood that the Company would be subject to enhanced regulatory scrutiny; and (iv) as a result, Defendants' public statements were materially false and/or misleading at all relevant times. On March 17, 2025, a federal Court determined that key allegations were sufficiently pled to survive defendants' motion to dismiss. According to the Court's Order, 'essentially anyone at Virtu, including its proprietary traders' could directly access this material non-public information from at least January 2018 through April 2019, and to do so, Virtu traders only needed to use a 'widely known and frequently shared username and password.' WHAT YOU SHOULD DO NOW: If you are a current Virtu shareholder who has held Virtu stock since on or before November 7, 2018, you can seek corporate reforms, the return of funds spent defending litigation back to the company, and a court approved incentive award, at no cost to you whatsoever.

BioAge Labs Reports Full Year 2024 Financial Results and Provides Business Updates from the Fourth Quarter of 2024
Advancement of oral, brain-penetrant NLRP3 inhibitor BGE-102, with initial clinical data expected 2H25 Progression of preclinical next-generation APJ agonists for obesity New platform partnerships with Novartis and Lilly to discover and develop novel therapies for conditions driven by metabolic aging RICHMOND, Calif., March 20, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- BioAge Labs, Inc. ("BioAge", 'the Company'), a clinical-stage biotechnology company developing therapeutic product candidates for metabolic diseases, such as obesity, by targeting the biology of human aging, today provided financial results for the full year ended December 31, 2024 and business updates for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2024. "The fourth quarter of 2024 was marked by key strategic decisions and solid pipeline progress,' said Kristen Fortney, Ph.D., CEO and co-founder of BioAge. 'After careful evaluation of the clinical data for our APJ agonist azelaprag, we made the decision to discontinue its development. We continue to progress our chemically distinct APJ agonists. In parallel, we are advancing our development candidate BGE-102, an oral, brain-penetrant NLRP3 inhibitor with best-in-class potential across multiple metabolic conditions driven by neuroinflammation, including obesity. We have accelerated our clinical timelines for BGE-102, with initial Phase 1 data expected by year's end. More broadly, our new research collaborations with Novartis and Lilly further validate our platform's potential to identify novel therapeutic targets. With a robust balance sheet and multiple promising programs advancing toward the clinic, we are well-positioned to execute on our strategy and deliver transformative treatments for metabolic diseases." Fourth Quarter 2024 Business Highlights APJ agonists: azelaprag discontinued; Company continues to advance next-gen agonists In December 2024, BioAge discontinued the STRIDES Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating azelaprag, an orally available small-molecule agonist of APJ, in combination with tirzepatide for the treatment of obesity. The Company's decision followed observations of unexpected liver transaminitis without clinically significant symptoms in some patients in the azelaprag arms of the STRIDES trial. In previous GLP toxicology studies and Phase 1 studies conducted by Amgen and BioAge, azelaprag was generally well tolerated, without predicted risk of transaminitis or liver injury. The Company is continuing to develop APJ agonists structurally distinct from azelaprag for obesity and related metabolic conditions. NLRP3 inhibitors: progression of BGE-102, with initial clinical data expected 2H25 In January 2025, BioAge nominated BGE-102, a member of its novel, proprietary class of orally available small-molecule NLRP3 inhibitors with distinctive structural and biological properties, as a development candidate. BGE-102 has potential best-in-class features, including high potency and high brain penetration, important attributes for a compound that could be used for treatment of neuroinflammation linked to conditions such as obesity. Potential for use in an oral combination for obesity: in preclinical models, NLRP3 inhibition has demonstrated weight loss both as a monotherapy and in combination with a GLP-1 receptor agonist IND-enabling experiments for BGE-102 are currently underway, with Phase 1 single ascending dose (SAD) data anticipated in 2H25 and multiple ascending dose (MAD) data anticipated in 1H26. Platform and broader pipeline: Strategic collaborations with Novartis and Lilly In December 2024, BioAge established a multi-year collaboration with Novartis to discover novel targets for therapies that address age-related diseases and conditions. The collaboration will leverage insights from BioAge's unique longitudinal human aging datasets and Novartis expertise in the biology of physical exercise to identify drug targets to treat diseases related to aging. This complementary approach aims to translate insights from BioAge's platform into novel therapies that could address fundamental mechanisms of metabolic decline. Novartis will pay up to $20 million comprising upfront payments and research funding; BioAge may receive up to $530 million in future long-term research, development, and commercial milestones [link]. In January 2025, BioAge announced that the Company has entered a strategic collaboration with Lilly ExploR&D (part of Lilly Catalyze360) to discover two therapeutic antibodies that address novel metabolic aging targets identified through BioAge's discovery platform. This collaboration complements BioAge's small molecule expertise and broadens the modalities through which the Company can address targets emerging from its proprietary platform. Full Year 2024 Financial Results Research and development expenses were $59.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, compared to $33.9 million for the same period in 2023. The $25.1 million increase in research and development expenses was primarily attributable to a $22.8 million increase in costs related to the development of azelaprag driven by the Phase 2 STRIDES trial and costs related to the manufacture of azelaprag. General and administrative expenses were $19.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, compared to $14.5 million for the same period in 2023. The $4.7 million increase was primarily attributable to an increase in stock-based compensation expense associated with option grants issued in 2024 to employees, executives, board members and advisors. Net loss was $71.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, or $6.63 per weighted-average common share outstanding, basic and diluted, compared to a net loss of $63.9 million, or $38.17 per weighted-average common share outstanding, basic and diluted, for the same period in 2023. As of December 31, 2024, BioAge had approximately $354.3 million in cash and cash equivalents. Based on our current operating plan, BioAge estimates that existing cash and cash equivalents will be sufficient to fund operations and capital expenses through 2029. About BioAge Labs, Inc. BioAge is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company developing therapeutic product candidates for metabolic diseases by targeting the biology of human aging. The company's pipeline includes novel, orally available, brain-penetrant small-molecule NLRP3 inhibitors to treat metabolic diseases and conditions driven by neuroinflammation, as well as novel APJ agonists for metabolic disorders. BioAge's additional preclinical programs, which leverage insights from the Company's proprietary discovery platform built on human longevity data, address key pathways involved in metabolic aging.
