In other recent news, Avid Bioservices (NASDAQ:CDMO) has been the subject of significant developments. The firm's revenue in the second quarter of the fiscal year 2025 matched Stephens' projections, albeit slightly missing the consensus. Avid Bioservices reported a backlog of approximately $220 million at the quarter's end, which was lower than the estimated $235 million. On the heels of these financial results, GHO Capital Partners (WA:CPAP) and Ampersand Capital Partners have agreed to acquire Avid Bioservices for $12.50 per share in cash, a deal valued at approximately $1.1 billion.

The acquisition prompted RBC Capital to downgrade Avid Bioservices from Outperform to Sector Perform, albeit with a price target increase to $12.50. In addition, Avid Bioservices has made substantial changes to its executive compensation framework, including the expansion of its 2018 Omnibus Incentive Plan and the amendment of its 2010 Employee Stock Purchase Plan, earning stockholder endorsement.

Lastly, despite a net loss of $5.5 million in the first quarter of fiscal year 2025, Avid Bioservices reported a 6% revenue increase to $40.2 million and anticipates growth in adjusted EBITDA and margins, with a potential 40% to 60% increase in incremental revenue. These developments have led KeyBanc analysts to maintain a positive outlook on the company, reiterating an Overweight rating.
