Es gab vorab Hinweise, dass die HF sich abstimmen und eine Aktie nach der anderen der Biotechs hochkaufen und dann shorten - Adaptimmune sollte als nächstes kommen. Dies kann ich aber nicht so nachvollziehen, da die Umsätze dafür zu gering sind und hochkaufen ja wohl über dem Ausgabekurs liegen müsste... also abwarten.

Conference Call to be Held Today at 8:00 AM ET (1:00 PM BST)
PHILADELPHIA, Pa. and OXFORD, UK., October 13, 2015 - Adaptimmune Therapeutics plc (Nasdaq: ADAP), ("Adaptimmune" or the "Company"), a clinical stage biopharmaceutical company focused on the use of T-cell therapy to treat cancer, today reported financial results for the full fiscal year 2015, which ended June 30, 2015.
"This has been a period of exciting progress throughout our organization, marked by execution on key elements of our growth strategy," commented James Noble, Adaptimmune's Chief Executive Officer. "We successfully completed our initial public offering in May, and continued to scale up the organization in the U.S. and U.K. to execute on our clinical development and research priorities. From a clinical perspective, we generated strong momentum in our pipeline of affinity enhanced T-cell therapies and have seen encouraging response rates to our NY-ESO-1 affinity enhanced T-cell therapy, which we are developing with GSK, in Phase I/II trials in patients with solid and hematologic cancers. We have also demonstrated durable persistence and long-term expression of the TCR on the cell surface. Our clinical momentum has also included the approval of our Investigational New Drug (IND) application for our affinity enhanced T-cell therapy targeting MAGE-A10, as well as the start of dosing in our expanded study of our NY-ESO-1 affinity enhanced T-cell therapy in patients with synovial sarcoma. Finally, we have a rapidly growing number of active research programs which puts us in a strong position to deliver our ambitious goal of new INDs each year from 2016 onwards."
Mr. Noble continued, "From a corporate perspective, we have nearly doubled our team since our IPO, having recruited exceptional clinical and manufacturing professionals and expanded our highly skilled research and development team. To accommodate this essential expansion and further growth, we recently announced the commencement of construction for state-of-the-art manufacturing and research facilities in the U.S. and U.K., respectively. This has literally laid a firm foundation for Adaptimmune going forward, enabling us to enter 2016 well placed to deliver key data from our ongoing studies, build clinical experience with our affinity enhanced T-cell therapies, and explore ways to further enhance the rate, depth and durability of responses to them."
Corporate and Clinical Highlights:
Successfully completed IPO and listed on NASDAQ Global Select Market, raising $176 million in net proceeds; current cash is expected to support global operations for approximately three years;
Initiated dosing in expanded Phase I/II trial of affinity enhanced T-cell therapy targeting NY-ESO-1 in synovial sarcoma patients. Based on encouraging results seen in the first 12 synovial sarcoma patients, the trial has been expanded to include an additional 20 patients in two cohorts, triggering further milestone payments from GSK;
Secured publication of data detailing the persistence, tumor trafficking, antitumor effect and safety profile of Adaptimmune's affinity enhanced T-cell therapy in patients with advanced multiple myeloma in Nature Medicine;
Presented data from ongoing clinical studies with our NY-ESO-1 T-cell therapy across a number of cancer targets at multiple medical conferences, including the American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) 2015 annual meeting, 2015 American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) annual meeting, and the 18th Annual Meeting of the American Society of Gene and Cell Therapy (ASCGT);
Investigational New Drug (IND) application for Phase I/II studies of our MAGE A-10 T-cell therapy filed and now open in the U.S.; dosing in non-small cell lung cancer study anticipated to start in 2015;
Increased number of research programs for new therapeutic targets from nine to 12; validation of additional targets ongoing toward goal of filing new INDs each year from 2016 onwards.
Continued execution of growth strategy to build out clinical capabilities to support development of clinical and preclinical pipeline; Company grew from 39 full-time equivalent employees as of July 1, 2014 to 190 as of October 9, 2015; and
Signed lease agreements in Philadelphia, PA for new fully integrated office, laboratory and cGMP CMC / manufacturing facility, and in Oxfordshire, UK for new research and development facility.
Full Fiscal Year 2015 Financial Results
Cash position: As of June 30, 2015, Adaptimmune had $284 million (£181 million) in cash, cash equivalents, and asset investments, compared to $46.9 million (£30.1 million) as of June 30, 2014.
Cash Burn: Operating cash outflows were $32.7 million (£20.8 million) related to the growth of Adaptimmune's business, including $23.2 million (£14.7 million) of R&D expenditure. The overall net increase in cash and cash equivalents of $181.7 million (£115.6 million) and current asset investments of $55.3 million (£35.2 million) in the 12 months ended June 30, 2015 was primarily due to net proceeds on the Series A round and IPO of $275.2 million (£174.7 million).
Revenue: For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2015, revenue was $10.7 million (£6.8 million) compared to $0.6 million (£0.3 million) for full fiscal year 2014. The increase in 2015 was primarily due to a full year of recognition of revenue under the collaboration and license agreement with GSK, which was announced in June 2014.
Research and development (R&D) expense: Research and development expenses were $23.2 million (£14.7 million) for fiscal year 2015 compared to $11.6 million (£7.4 million) in fiscal year 2014, primarily due to increased costs associated with ongoing NY-ESO-1 TCR clinical trials, evaluation and validation of additional targets, preparing for NSCLC studies with the Company's NY-ESO-1 and MAGE A-10 T-cell therapies, personnel expenses including non-cash stock-based compensation, production costs, costs associated with obtaining patents and other intellectual property, and costs related to the Company's growing operations.
General and administrative (G&A) expense: General and administrative expenses were $11.3 million (£7.2 million) for fiscal year 2015 compared to $2.5 million (£1.6 million) in fiscal year 2014, primarily due to increased personnel expenses, including non-cash stock-based compensation, and other expenses to support the Company's growing operations, and the requirements of being a public company.
Net loss: net loss attributable to common stockholders was $21.6 million (£13.7 million), or $(0.07) per ordinary share (or £(0.04) per ordinary share) for fiscal year 2015.
Fiscal Year Transition
Adaptimmune is transitioning from a June 30 fiscal year end to a December 31 fiscal year end to align more closely with sector comparators, and will be changing its accounting standard from International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) to U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) starting in January 2016. The Company will file a form 20-F containing audited financial statements prepared under IFRS covering the period from July 1, 2015 to December 31, 2015 followed by a form 10-K containing audited financial statements prepared under U.S. GAAP covering the calendar year 2016. As a result, the Company is providing cash burn guidance for the 18 month period between July 1, 2015 and December 31, 2016.
Financial Guidance
For the six months from July 1, 2015 to December 31, 2015, the Company expects its cash burn to be between $20 and $30 million, excluding cash burn associated with business development activities. For the full year 2016, the Company expects its cash burn to be between $80 and $100 million, excluding cash burn associated with business development activities, and expects its cash position at December 31, 2016, including cash, cash equivalents, and asset investments, to be at least $150 million.

About Adaptimmune
Adaptimmune is a clinical stage biopharmaceutical company focused on novel cancer immunotherapy products based on its T-cell receptor (TCR) platform. Established in 2008, the Company aims to utilize the body's own machinery - the T-cell - to target and destroy cancer cells by using engineered, increased affinity TCRs as a means of strengthening natural patient T-cell responses. Adaptimmune's lead program is an affinity enhanced T-cell therapy targeting the NY-ESO cancer antigen. Its NY-ESO TCR affinity enhanced T-cell therapy has demonstrated signs of efficacy and tolerability in Phase 1/2 trials in solid tumors and in hematologic cancer types, including synovial sarcoma and multiple myeloma. As of June 30, 2015, 85 patients had been treated with Adaptimmune's NY-ESO affinity enhanced T-cell therapy: 47 under Adaptimmune's IND, and 38 under a National Cancer Institute IND. In June 2014, Adaptimmune announced that it had entered into a strategic collaboration and licensing agreement with GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) for the development and commercialization of the NY-ESO TCR program in partnership with GSK. In addition, Adaptimmune has a number of proprietary programs and its next affinity enhanced T-cell therapy, directed at MAGE A-10, is scheduled to enter the clinic in 2015. The Company has identified over 30 intracellular target peptides preferentially expressed in cancer cells and is currently progressing 12 of these through unpartnered research programs. Adaptimmune has over 190 employees and is located in Oxfordshire, UK and Philadelphia, USA. For more information: http://www.adaptimmune.com

(siehe http://www.nasdaq.com/symbol/adap/short-interest )
Gehandelt wird Adaptimmune ja an der NASDA nur in ADS die je ein ADR repräsentieren, welches mit 6 Eigentümeranteilen hinterlegt ist. 11,5 Millionen ADS wurden an die Börse gebracht und maximal rund 71 Millionen dürften ab dem 2.11 (Ende des Lock-up) insgesamt am Markt sein. Auf letztere hoffen die Shorties vermute ich.
Die Marktkapitalisierung bei einem aktuellen Börsenkurs von etwas über $7 beträgt ca. 500 Millionen US-Dollar - Viele Börseninformationsdienste und Newsletter gehen aber von den in UK eingetragenen 424 Millionen 'Ordinary Shares' als Aktien aus und kommen so zu 6-fach überhöhten Bewertungen von über 3 Milliarden US-Dollar für Adaptimmune.
Um das Chaos komplett zu machen, rechnet auch NASDAQ mal mit ADS und mal mit 'Ordinary shares'. So kommen sie z.B. zu völlig verzerrten Informationen bezüglich der institutionellen Anleger wo sie die gehaltenen ADS wieder gegen die 'ordinary shares' setzen (siehe http://www.nasdaq.com/symbol/adap/institutional-holdings ), zum Vergleich die Angaben aus dem aktuellen Finanzbericht.
