Shares Surge 196% in 12 Days, Tempts Investors

ValiRx Plc (LON: VAL) has suddenly risen more than 196% in 12 days without making any major announcements or news in the market. The last significant news was the operational review, which was released at the end of this September. However, this operational review showed that its subsidiary, Inaphaea BioLabs, had secured its first revenue-generating contract. That helped the contract progress on time.

A new laboratory

In Q4 2022, the biopharmaceutical company announced plans to lease a laboratory facility in the UK to start building tCRO®. Additionally, they have options to purchase advanced technologies or acquire companies to differentiate tCRO® from other industry-standard CROs. Following this period, Inaphaea BioLabs Limited, a wholly-owned subsidiary of ValiRx, was launched.
