Drug-developer <b>Vaxart</b> (NASDAQ:VXRT) is expected to increase its annual sales from the $4.05 million reported in 2020 to a consensus estimate of $1.047 billion by mid-decade. That's an increase of about 25,750%, if Wall Street's numbers prove accurate.</p>\n<p>Vaxart's future is pinned to the success of its VAAST platform. \"VAAST\" stands for Vector-Adjuvant-Antigen Standardized Technology and encompasses the company's attempts to develop proprietary oral vaccines.

In early August, it received the go-ahead from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to commence an oral-tablet study for a very specific protein to combat COVID-19.

That's an improvement of more than 191,000% in five years.</p>\n<p>Arguably the biggest positive for CRISPR is that it's working with <b>Vertex Pharmaceuticals</b> (NASDAQ:VRTX) in the development of CTX001 for the treatment of transfusion-dependent beta thalassemia (TDT) and sickle cell disease (SCD).

After the company reported $43,000 in sales last year, Wall Street's consensus has it generating $260 million in full-year sales by 2025. We're talking about a nearly 605,000% sales increase in five years.</p>\n<p>Not to sound like a broken record, but a COVID-19 vaccine is Ocugen's potential catalyst. The company has partnered with India's Bharat Biotech for the commercialization of Covaxin. A phase 3 trial of 25,800 adults aged 18 and up in India demonstrated a vaccine efficacy of 77.8% for symptomatic infections, 63.6% against asymptomatic infections, and most importantly was 93.4% effective against severe COVID-19 disease. The July-reported data from Bharat also showed a 65.2% efficacy against the delta variant.</p>\n<p>With so many people left to be vaccinated, this probably sounds like a slam-dunk for some form of emergency authorization use in developed or emerging markets. However, there's a big problem for Ocugen: It only has co-commercialization rights for Covaxin in the U.S. and Canada. The U.S. has ordered more-than-enough vaccines to inoculate all eligible Americans, and likely has doses in reserve should booster shots become necessary. The same could be said for Canada, which invested heavily in vaccine purchases.</p>\n<p>While there's no such thing as having too many vaccine options during a pandemic, Covaxin's initial efficacy doesn't pop quite like the vaccines from <b>Moderna</b>, <b>Pfizer</b>/<b>BioNTech</b>, or even <b>Novavax</b>, which looks to be nearing its own emergency use authorization in the United States. Suffice it to say, Ocugen's sales forecast may prove unattainable.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/deae33b8912cffd8d0ba896164abff66\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"378\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>A rendering of the all-electric Nikola Tre semi. Image source: Nikola.</span></p>\n<h2>Nikola: 2,970,426% implied sales growth by 2025</h2>\n<p>However, the crème de la crème of growth opportunities, at least pertaining to this list, is electric vehicle (EV) manufacturer <b>Nikola</b> (NASDAQ:NKLA). The expectation is that we'll see Nikola's sales catapult from a reported $95,000 in 2020 to a consensus of $2.822 billion by 2025. This equates to almost a 3 million percent jump in annual revenue.</p>\n<p>The growth opportunity for EVs is pretty straightforward. With developed countries like the U.S. tackling climate change head-on, replacing fossil-fuel-burning vehicles with alternative-energy vehicles is <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AONE.U\">one</a> of the easiest ways to make a difference. It's going to take decades for consumers and businesses to make this shift, which leaves plenty of room for multiple EV manufacturers to thrive.</p>\n<p>The issue for Nikola is that it's dealing with a public relations mess. Last year, short-side firm Hindenburg Research released a report that alleged Nikola was a fraud. Even though an independent review found that many of Hindenburg's allegations weren't true, it was discovered that founder Trevor Milton's statements regarding pre-sells weren't accurate.</p>\n<p>Despite stepping down last year, Milton was indicted by the U.S. Department of Justice on three charges of misleading investors. Ultimately, Nikola will have to overcome a breach of trust to sell its vehicles, and it likely will need a lot more cash than it has now to build up its production. Personally, I'm skeptical the company will reach this lofty sales consensus by mid-decade.</p>","source":"fool_stock","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>4 Stocks Expected to Increase Sales 25,750% to 2,970,000% in 5 Years</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\n4 Stocks Expected to Increase Sales 25,750% to 2,970,000% in 5 Years\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2021-09-30 19:44 GMT+8 <a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2021/09/30/4-stocks-increase-sales-25750-to-2970000-5-years/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>High-growth stocks have dominated Wall Street for more than a decade -- and with good reason.

Suffice it to say, Ocugen's sales forecast may prove unattainable.\nA rendering of the all-electric Nikola Tre semi. Image source: Nikola.\nNikola: 2,970,426% implied sales growth by 2025\nHowever, the crème de la crème of growth opportunities, at least pertaining to this list, is electric vehicle (EV) manufacturer Nikola (NASDAQ:NKLA). The expectation is that we'll see Nikola's sales catapult from a reported $95,000 in 2020 to a consensus of $2.822 billion by 2025. This equates to almost a 3 million percent jump in annual revenue.\nThe growth opportunity for EVs is pretty straightforward. With developed countries like the U.S. tackling climate change head-on, replacing fossil-fuel-burning vehicles with alternative-energy vehicles is one of the easiest ways to make a difference. It's going to take decades for consumers and businesses to make this shift, which leaves plenty of room for multiple EV manufacturers to thrive.\nThe issue for Nikola is that it's dealing with a public relations mess. Last year, short-side firm Hindenburg Research released a report that alleged Nikola was a fraud. Even though an independent review found that many of Hindenburg's allegations weren't true, it was discovered that founder Trevor Milton's statements regarding pre-sells weren't accurate.\nDespite stepping down last year, Milton was indicted by the U.S. Department of Justice on three charges of misleading investors. Ultimately, Nikola will have to overcome a breach of trust to sell its vehicles, and it likely will need a lot more cash than it has now to build up its production. Personally, I'm skeptical the company will reach this lofty sales consensus by mid-decade.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":417,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"CN","totalScore":0}],"lives":[]}
