    Immunovant (IMVT) just raised roughly $550 million through a follow on equity offering at $21 a share, a meaningful capital boost that also brings the usual dilution questions front and center for investors.

    See our latest analysis for Immunovant.

    The offering lands on top of a strong run, with a 30 day share price return of about 15 percent and a 90 day surge of more than 80 percent. The three year total shareholder return above 60 percent suggests longer term momentum has been building despite earlier volatility.

    If this kind of financing fueled rally has you looking for what else might be setting up for the next leg higher, now is a good time to explore healthcare stocks as potential new ideas.

    With Immunovant still loss making but flush with fresh capital and trading at a steep discount to analyst targets, investors now face a key question: is this a genuine entry point, or is the market already baking in future growth?

    Price to Book of 10.4x: Is it justified?

    Immunovant's latest close at $26.68 comes with a rich price to book ratio of 10.4 times, well above most biotech peers and pointing to a premium valuation for a pre revenue business.

    The price to book multiple compares the market value of the company to the net assets on its balance sheet. This metric matters a lot for early stage biotechs that do not yet have meaningful revenue or profits. In this case, investors are paying a substantial mark up over book value, effectively placing a high price on Immunovant's pipeline, intellectual property, and future growth potential rather than its current financials.

    Relative measures highlight how stretched that premium is. The 10.4 times price to book figure sits well above both the US biotech industry average of 2.6 times and the closer peer group average of 5.7 times. That sort of gap indicates the market is assigning Immunovant a significantly higher future success probability than a typical peer, which may leave less room for disappointment if the clinical or commercial trajectory slips.

    Result: Price to Book of 10.4x (OVERVALUED)

    However, setbacks in pivotal trials or slower than expected adoption in targeted autoimmune indications could quickly compress that premium valuation and stall recent momentum.
