Develops novel therapies for central nervous system (CNS) disorders. Now — the numbers.

on the stock market since 2015
1,346 employees
$11B market value
Revenue last year:
$638.5M
The loss that same year:
$183.2M
For every $1 it earns, the company spends $1.3.

The company closed last year at a loss: costs ran above sales. The picture changes only if spending is reined in.

In the vault right now:
$322.9M
DEBT: $241.3M
At this pace, that money lasts about 1.8 years.

Before the clock runs out, either sales must climb sharply or new money must come in. This is the most critical line in the whole picture.

Every quarter, analysts set a profit bar.

WORTH WATCHING

Valuation: The stock trades at a price that looks expensive next to its earnings; that can cap future returns.

Financial Strength: The cash-and-debt balance is thin; the buffer for hard times is slim.

THE FIVE-YEAR JOURNEY
Trading below its recent peak.

The stock trades below its recent peak — about 13% off the top. A pullback, not a collapse.

THE BRIGHT SIDE · 1/1
Sales are holding up

The company sells $638.5M a year; the problem isn’t sales — it’s costs running above that number.

FINALE · THE GRADE
D
33 / 100 · MoonshotScore

On our five-subject report card, AXSM sits behind the class. A low grade doesn’t mean “doomed” — it means “big claim, small proof.”

The takeaway: AXSM has solid sales but closed last year at a loss. The road back to profit runs through spending discipline.

The total grade weighs these five subjects against the sector — it isn’t a simple average of the five.

Analysts’ average target sits above today’s price, yet the valuation grade (44/100) says the stock isn’t cheap.
