What Happened: Peter Marks has resigned from his role at the FDA&#8217;s Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research.

"However it has become clear that truth and transparency are not desired by the Secretary, but rather he wishes subservient confirmation of his misinformation and lies."

The decrease was due to lower product sales under APA agreements.
The COVID-19 vaccine maker reported an earning loss of 51 cents per share, down from $1.44 a year ago, in line <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/02/n44004179/novavax-reports-fourth-quarter-and-full-year-2024-financial-results-and-operational-highlights" rel="noreferrer noopener">with the Wall Street Estimate</a>.

&#8220;In 2024, we unveiled our new corporate growth strategy, shifting our focus from commercializing our COVID-19 vaccine to maximizing the value of our cutting-edge technology platform through pipeline expansion and partnerships for our development-stage vaccine candidates and our Matrix-M adjuvant,&#8221; said&nbsp;John C. Jacobs, President and Chief Executive Officer, Novavax. &#8220;As we look to 2025 and beyond, we believe we are well positioned to potentially create significant value for all stakeholders.&#8221;
Nuvaxovid sales reached $49.8 million, down from $251.5 million a year ago. The company ended 2024 with over&nbsp;$1 billion&nbsp;in cash and accounts receivables.

Since Novavax is reliant on Sanofi&#8217;s sales forecasts for certain revenue components, these will not be included in the 2025 Revenue Framework at this time.
Novavax expects to achieve adjusted licensing, royalties, and other revenue of between&nbsp;$300 million&nbsp;and $350 million in 2025. Novavax is eligible to receive royalties in the high teens to low twenties percent on Sanofi sales.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Novavax Stock Prediction For 2025</h2>

Its website currently displays a banner stating that the site is being "modified to comply with President Trump's Executive Orders."
The CDC resumed publishing its weekly <a href="https://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/index2025.html?ACSTrackingID=USCDC_921-DM144964&amp;ACSTrackingLabel=This%20Week%20in%20MMWR:%20Vol.%2074,%20February%206,%202025&amp;deliveryName=USCDC_921-DM144964">scientific report</a>, the Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report, last Thursday after being paused for the previous two weeks.&nbsp;

More than 20 million egg-laying chickens were culled in the last quarter of 2024 alone, creating a large impact on the U.S. poultry industry.&nbsp;

GSK Plc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GSK#NYSE">GSK</a>), which acquired full rights to the bird flu vaccine candidate from CureVac BV (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CVAC#NASDAQ">CVAC</a>) in July 2024, has initiated a Phase I/II study on its development. Novavax Inc.

Deadly Bird Flu Strain Detected In Nevada Man: 4 Stocks To Watch (CORRECTED)

Novavax's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVAX#NYSE">NVAX</a>) short percent of float has risen 3.13% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 38.07 million shares sold short, which is 29.64% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 6.27 days to cover their short positions on average.
<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock/">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for Novavax has grown since its last report. This does not mean that the stock is going to fall in the near-term but traders should be aware that more shares are being shorted.
<h3>Comparing Novavax's Short Interest Against Its Peers</h3>
Peer comparison is a popular technique amongst analysts and investors for gauging how well a company is performing. A company's peer is another company that has similar characteristics to it, such as industry, size, age, and financial structure. You can find a company's peer group by reading its 10-K, proxy filing, or by doing your own similarity analysis.
According to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/">Benzinga Pro</a>, Novavax's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 15.25%, which means the company has more short interest than most of its peers.
