  • The company also completed an upsized public offering of more than 18,600,000 shares at US$40.00 each, raising about US$747,500,000 in gross proceeds and extending its reported cash runway into 2031.
  • Next, we’ll examine how TERN-701’s Fast Track status and the sizeable capital raise shape Terns Pharmaceuticals’ broader investment narrative.

What Is Terns Pharmaceuticals' Investment Narrative?

To own Terns Pharmaceuticals, you really have to believe that TERN-701 can evolve into a meaningful therapy in chronic myeloid leukemia and that management can turn today’s single-asset, pre-revenue story into a broader oncology and metabolic platform. The recent US$747.5 million capital raise and Fast Track designation directly affect the near term catalysts and risk balance: the cash runway reportedly stretching into 2031 takes financing pressure off the table for now and gives the company room to run CARDINAL through its key 2026 milestones without constantly looking over its shoulder for more funding. At the same time, the share price’s very large 12‑month move, the lack of revenue, insider share sales and rich price to book multiple keep clinical outcomes, regulatory feedback and sentiment around TERN-701 squarely in the spotlight.

However, there is one risk in particular that shareholders should not ignore. In light of our recent valuation report, it seems possible that Terns Pharmaceuticals is trading beyond its estimated value.
