#6 - Adamas Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ:ADMS)

Adamas Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ: ADMS) - Adamas has an approved Alzheimer’s drug in the market, Namenda, that has started to generate revenue for the company. In 2017, the drug’s revenue was less than $1 million. The drug is designed to treat Alzheimer’s related dementia. While analysts are estimating revenue from the drug could rise to $92 million in the next two years, it seems that investors were overly generous in their valuation of the company driving it up as high as $868 million. That’s a price/revenue ratio of 9 times estimates two years out. Investors though seem to be more concerned about their recently introduced Parkinson’s drug, Gocovri. They are questioning the commercial prospects for the drug which is entering a very competitive space with Osmolex. While there is a reason to believe Gocovri may prove to have a competitive advantage that will allow Adamas to be a big winner, there is a lot of uncertainty that seems to be manifesting itself in 2018. The stock has come back down to earth this year, falling from a high of $44 per share in early 2018 to its current price of right around $11.
