Exelixis Beats Estimates http://www.insidermonkey.com/blog/e...po-logistics-xpo-exelixis-exel-2-more-467597/ Exelixis, Inc. (NASDAQ:EXEL)’s stock is making a bold move today, gaining nearly 7% in the pre-market hours after the company posted better than expected second quarter results. The genomics-based drug discovery company posted a loss of $0.16 per share, above the forecasts of a $0.27 per share loss, while revenue of $36.3 million more than doubled the consensus estimate of $17.96 million. Exelixis expects operating expenses in the range of $250 million-to-$270 million for the full year. Exelixis CEO Michael M. Morrissey said in a statement that his team worked “tirelessly” to bring forward its kidney cancer treatment Cabometyx, and that the company is encouraged by the initial response and developments. A Phase II trial of the drug recently achieved its primary endpoint, as significant improvement was seen in progression-free survival rates in patients with previously untreated advanced renal cell carcinoma. Kenneth Tropin’s Graham Capital Management owns approximately 13.21 million shares of Exelixis, Inc. (NASDAQ:EXEL) as of the end of the first quarter.
