Did Envudeucitinib’s Phase III Win Just Shift Alumis' (ALMS) Investment Narrative?

• Earlier in January, Alumis reported that its lead autoimmune drug candidate, the TYK2 inhibitor envudeucitinib, met all primary and secondary endpoints with strong statistical significance in two Phase III trials for moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis.
• This clinical milestone has prompted several Wall Street firms to initiate or upgrade coverage, framing envudeucitinib as a central asset in Alumis’s late-stage autoimmune pipeline.
• We’ll now examine how envudeucitinib’s Phase III success shapes Alumis’s investment narrative, particularly around clinical risk and future commercialization potential.

What Is Alumis' Investment Narrative?

For Alumis to make sense in a portfolio, you have to believe envudeucitinib can anchor a focused autoimmune franchise while the company manages its burn and ongoing dilution. The Phase III psoriasis success meaningfully shifts the near term story: instead of worrying primarily about clinical failure, the key catalysts now center on the planned NDA in the second half of 2026, the LUMUS Phase 2b lupus readout, and how regulators view the totality of the TYK2 data. That said, the sharp share price move since the topline results and the sizeable recent equity raise suggest a lot of optimism is already reflected, while profitability is still not in sight and PwC has previously flagged going concern uncertainty. The recent news reduces clinical risk, but financing and execution risks remain front and center.

However, one legal and funding overhang could still surprise new shareholders. Our valuation report here indicates Alumis may be overvalued.
