Novavax’s Late Entry in The Market
According to a Yahoo report, last year in July, the Novavax company gained an emergency use authorization (EUA) for its Covid-19 vaccine, the 4th approved vaccine in the U.S. However, this came more than a year after Pfizer (NYSE: PFE) and Moderna (NASDAQ: MRNA) got their EUAs. As Novavax doesn’t require specialized equipment to store its vaccine, it hopes that its vaccine may have worldwide reach.
The reasons for Novavax’s late entry also highlight the risks of its global strategy. The health care company was initially unable to manufacture vaccine doses at the quantity and purity required by regulators. Thus, the final result was months of delays.
The 2022 earnings reports of Novavax Inc showed $2 billion in revenue and $2.6 billion in expenses, with $1.3 billion in cash.
