Die Experten von "BörseGo" sind in ihrem aktuellen "Tec-Report" der Meinung, dass sich für die Senomyx-Aktie (ISIN US81724Q1076/ WKN 634795) eine gute Kaufgelegenheit bietet.
Senomyx habe sich vorgenommen, den ständig ansteigenden Verbrauch von Zucker, dem Geschmacksverstärker MSG (Monosodium Glutamat) und Salz in der Ernährung und in den Getränken, die man täglich zu sich nehme, dramatisch zu reduzieren, ohne dass man auf den so "unentbehrlichen" Geschmack dieser Zutaten verzichten müsse.

Der Vorsprung, über den Senomyx in der Entwicklung ihrer Produkte verfüge, scheine gewaltig und auch durch Patente abgesichert zu sein. Insbesondere habe sich Senomyx langfristige Forschungsabkommen mit einer Reihe von Universitäten und Instituten gesichert, die sich verpflichten würden, alle Ergebnisse, die sie in der Geschmacksforschung erzielen würden, ausschließlich an Senomyx weiterzugeben.
Dass Senomyx seinen Vorsprung halten werde, erscheine den Experten wahrscheinlich, sei aber keineswegs sicher. Es gebe ja so viele verschiedene Möglichkeiten, den Geschmack von Lebensmitteln zu variieren, und eine Reihe bedeutender Firmen, wie z.B. Tate & Lyle, würden sich auch auf diesem Gebiet tummeln. Senomyx nehme aber doch eine besondere Stellung ein. Diese liege in der Systematik, mit der die Gesellschaft vorgehe.
Sie sei mehr ein Labor, das für die großen Konzerne Geschmacksstoffe entwickle, um dann durch Lizenzeinnahmen an deren Umsatz zu partizipieren und nicht wie ihre Konkurrenten eine Firma, die alle möglichen Geschmackszutaten produziere und dann auch verkaufe. Und Gerade das mache sie für den Anleger interessant. Denn je weiter Senomyx mit ihrer Entwicklung vorankomme, desto ergiebiger würden die Gewinne sprudeln, ohne durch die Fixkosten der Produktion belastet zu sein.
Auch das Interesse von Konkurrenten und Kunden, diese Gesellschaft durch eine Übernahme fest an sich zu binden, werde für Wertsteigerungen sorgen. Das könnte sehr profitabel für den Anleger sein, der bereits heute einzusteigen bereit sei. Dabei könne er sich zur Zeit auch in Sicherheit wiegen. Zwar mache die Gesellschaft noch Verluste (Gewinne seien erst 2007 geplant), aber sie verfüge mit 80 Mio. USD aus der letzten Kapitalerhöhung über ausreichende liquide Mittel.
Die Aktienanalysten, die sich zur Zeit mit Senomyx befassen würden seien sich alle einig: Eine Verdoppelung des Aktienkurses im 2006 sollte schon drin sein. Optimisten sähen die Aktie, die heut bei knapp 13 USD notiere, bereits bei 35 USD. Die Risiken seien aber noch erheblich. Das habe gerade die Entwicklung des Aktienkurses gezeigt. Er sei von 22 USD im August dieses Jahres auf 12 USD im November zurückgefallen.
Die übereinstimmende Meinung sei aber, dass sich zur Zeit eine gute Kaufgelegenheit für die Senomyx-Aktie bietet, so die Experten von "BörseGo" in ihrem "Tec-Report".

Vaduz (aktiencheck.de AG) - Wie die Experten von "Geldbrief" berichten, bringt die Aktie von Senomyx (ISIN US81724Q1076/ WKN 634795) Würze ins Depot.
Bekanntlich führe die Verwendung von zuviel Salz und Zucker in Nahrungsmitteln zu den bekannten Problemen wie Übergewicht und Bluthochdruck. Allein in den USA würden Schätzungen zufolge etwa 55 Mio. Menschen unter dem Problem des Bluthochdrucks leiden. Senomyx habe ein Verfahren entwickelt, dass den Geschmack von Nahrungsmitteln verstärke, damit die Beigabe von Salz und anderen Zugaben in Lebensmitteln reduziert werden könne.
Die im Jahr 1988 gegründete Gesellschaft sei eigentlich ein Labor, das Produkte für die Lebensmittelkonzerne entwickle. Die daraus resultierenden Umsätze seien Lizenz- oder Forschungseinnahmen. Die Zahlen lägen derzeit noch auf einem sehr niedrigen Niveau. Senomyx schätze das Volumen im laufenden Jahr auf etwa 14 bis 16 Mio. USD. Allerdings werde ein Verlust in Höhe von 20 Mio. USD anfallen. Dies scheine aber bei einer Liquidität von 79 Mio. USD kein Problem zu sein, zumal das Unternehmen bis 2008 voraussichtlich einen Gewinn abwerfen werde.
Mit Unternehmen wie Nestlé, Cadbury Schweppes, Coca Cola, Kraft und Campbell Soup würden bereits zahlreiche Abkommen bestehen und könnten Senomyx in den nächsten Jahren fette Gewinne bescheren. Allerdings sei ein Investment in die Senomyx-Aktie mit höheren Risiken behaftet. Diese könnten aber mit der Stopp-Loss-Marke bei 12,50 USD abgesichert werden. Vom Höchstkurs von 22 USD im August 2005 habe die Aktie mittlerweile rund ein Drittel an Wert verloren.
Die Experten von "Geldbrief" sehen bei der Senomyx-Aktie aktuell eine Bodenbildung, die Platz für einen Anstieg bis in den Bereich von 25 USD eröffnet. (14.07.2006/ac/a/a

Senomyx, Inc. (NASDAQ:SNMX), a company focused on using proprietary taste receptor-based assays to discover novel flavor ingredients for the packaged food and beverage industry, today reported financial results for the second quarter of 2006. For the three months ended June 30, 2006, the Company recognized revenues of $3.2 million and incurred total expenses of $10.3 million, resulting in a net loss of $6.2 million. As of June 30, 2006 the Company had cash, cash equivalents and short term investments of approximately $78.8 million.
"During the second quarter of 2006, Senomyx continued to make progress with each of our four discovery and development programs and to work closely with our collaborators," said Kent Snyder, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company. "Senomyx's primary focus has been on advancing our flavor discovery and development programs while expanding our partnerships, which now total eight collaborative agreements with six of the world's leading packaged food and beverage companies. In addition to these efforts, our activities are increasingly focused on the commercialization of our savory flavor ingredients. We are therefore especially pleased to have established a Commercialization Team under the leadership of Sharon Wicker, who was recently appointed to the newly created position of Senior Vice President, Commercial Development and Chief Strategy Officer. Sharon's expertise as a food industry innovator, with product launch experience and successful execution of commercial strategies, makes her the ideal individual to work closely with our collaborators to help ensure timely and successful commercial launches of products containing our flavor ingredients."
Senomyx also increased its intellectual property portfolio during the past quarter with the issuance of three new U.S. patents. In addition to other claims, the issued patents cover cell-based assay methods for identifying new flavor ingredients that modulate the activity of specific taste receptors. "Senomyx is the owner or exclusive licensee of 76 issued patents and 292 pending patent applications in the U.S. and elsewhere," Snyder noted. "We are active in continuing to pursue patent protection for our proprietary technologies, inventions, and flavor ingredients that are commercially important to the development of our business."
Financial Review:
Revenues were $3.2 million for the second quarter 2006, compared to $2.0 million for the second quarter of 2005, an increase of 59%. Revenues were $5.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006, compared to $5.0 million for the same period in 2005, an increase of 13%. These increases are due primarily to the commencement of revenue recognition for the Company's collaboration with Ajinomoto Co., Inc., and increased research funding from another of the Company's collaborators.
Research and development expenses, including stock-based compensation expense, for the second quarter and year to date were $6.3 million and $12.8 million, respectively, for 2006, compared to $5.0 million and $10.1 million, respectively, for 2005. The increase for the year to date is due primarily to increased patent-related expenses associated with expanding the Company's intellectual property portfolio, including the filing of foreign patent applications, as well as increased expenses for scientific supplies and outsourced activities associated with the Company's discovery and development programs.
General and administrative expenses, including stock-based compensation expense, for the second quarter and year to date were $4.0 million and $7.4 million, respectively, for 2006, compared to $2.5 million and $5.1 million, respectively, for 2005. The increase in general and administrative expenses was due to increased non-cash, stock-based compensation expense resulting from the implementation of SFAS 123(R) in the first quarter of 2006 and to increased personnel expenses driven by increased headcount and one-time consulting expenses.
The net loss for the second quarter and year to date were $6.2 million and $12.8 million, or $0.21 per share and $0.43 per share, respectively, for 2006, compared to $5.2 million and $9.8 million, or $0.20 per share and $0.39 per share, respectively, for 2005.
"The second quarter financial results met the Company's expectations," said John Poyhonen, Senior Vice President, Chief Financial and Business Officer. "During the first half of the year our net cash used in operating activities was $3.7 million, which was consistent with our cash utilization plans. We will continue to manage our operations closely as we advance our discovery and development programs towards commercialization."
On the balance sheet, deferred revenue increased approximately $4.4 million from December 31, 2005 to June 30, 2006, primarily due to the receipt of a $5.7 million payment made by a collaborator in advance of associated revenues being recognized.
Property and equipment, net, increased approximately $2.0 million from December 31, 2005 to June 30, 2006. Other non-current liabilities increased approximately $1.0 million from December 31, 2005 to June 30, 2006. The increase in both areas is due to the new facility that the Company will occupy, which the Company expects to be completed in the fourth quarter of 2006. For a more detailed explanation of accounting for the Company's leasehold liability, please see the Company's second quarter 2006 Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, which the Company expects to file on or around August 9, 2006.
Scientific Update:
-- Savory Program: The primary applications of the Company's savory flavor ingredients are to reduce or eliminate monosodium glutamate (MSG) and other additives such as sodium inosinate (IMP), and to enhance the savory taste of foods. One of the Company's collaborators continues its preparations for initial commercialization with activities that include conducting consumer acceptance tests in multiple countries, developing marketing plans, and finalizing arrangements with a manufacturer to produce our flavor ingredients. These efforts are geared toward identifying products and markets that would be involved in the first phase of commercialization. Additionally, Senomyx continues to pursue additional regulatory approvals while conducting product development and application work to support the collaborator's further commercialization activities.
-- Sweet Program: The goal for this program is to identify flavor ingredients that allow a significant reduction of carbohydrate sweeteners in food and beverage products while maintaining the desired sweet taste. The Company's current focus is to improve the potency, water solubility, and other physical properties of these compounds and to conduct taste tests with product prototypes. The optimization efforts are intended to result in flavor ingredients that are easier to work with and have applications in a wide variety of foods and beverages. During the past quarter, Senomyx scientists discovered potential flavor ingredients having up to 1,000-fold greater water solubility than previously identified compounds. Initial taste tests with several of these more water soluble compounds have demonstrated their ability to achieve the desired reduction of the carbohydrate sweetener in product prototypes. Taste tests are planned to evaluate a variety of additional taste parameters in product prototypes to enable our collaborators to assess the commercial viability of products containing these new compounds.
-- Salt Program: The goal of the salt program is to identify flavor ingredients that provide for a significant reduction of sodium in foods and beverages yet maintain the salty taste desirable to consumers. Senomyx is continuing to identify enhancers of the sodium ion channel, ENaC, which is present in human taste cells in two forms - Alpha ENaC and Delta ENaC. During the past quarter, Alpha ENaC enhancers were identified from a new chemical series. In addition, the Company has initiated optimization of several compounds from different chemical series found to be active in the Delta ENaC in vitro assay. Taste tests are underway for these new Alpha ENaC and Delta ENaC enhancers to determine whether they provide a taste effect, which is the ability to maintain the desired salt taste in a reduced-salt product. Timing for commercialization will be driven by achievement of a taste effect by one or more of these enhancers.
-- Bitter Program: The goal of the bitter taste modulation program is to block bitter taste and improve the overall taste characteristics of packaged foods, beverages, and pharmaceutical products. Scientific advances continue to be made on the functional characterization of bitter taste receptors. As reported last quarter, Senomyx had previously demonstrated a functional response to 18 of the 25 known human bitter receptors. Company scientists recently demonstrated the response of two previously uncharacterized bitter receptors to certain bitter-tasting compounds, increasing the total number of receptors for which Senomyx has demonstrated a functional response to 20. Senomyx's researchers are continuing to characterize the receptors that interact with bitter ingredients in foods and pharmaceuticals to evaluate the function of the remaining five receptors, and to develop high-throughput receptor-based screening assays.
-- Exploratory Research Efforts: Experiments have been initiated by Company scientists to identify and characterize other receptors and ion channels that may be involved in taste. The Company's approach is to identify receptors and ion channels present in taste cells using a variety of molecular biology and cellular approaches. Preliminary studies have identified a number of interesting receptors and ion channels for further characterization.
Conference Call:
Senomyx will host a conference call at 11:00 a.m. Eastern Time (8:00 a.m. Pacific Time) today to discuss these financial results and provide an update on the Company. To access the call in the U.S. dial 866-356-3093, or from outside the U.S. dial 617-597-5381. The participant passcode for this conference call is 50064768. Additionally, the call will be webcast under the Investor Relations section of Senomyx's website at www.Senomyx.com and will be archived there for 30 days following the conclusion of the conference call.

Senomyx, Inc. (NASDAQ:SNMX), a company focused on using proprietary taste receptor-based assays to discover novel flavor ingredients for the packaged food and beverage industry, today reported financial results for the second quarter of 2006. For the three months ended June 30, 2006, the Company recognized revenues of $3.2 million and incurred total expenses of $10.3 million, resulting in a net loss of $6.2 million. As of June 30, 2006 the Company had cash, cash equivalents and short term investments of approximately $78.8 million.
"During the second quarter of 2006, Senomyx continued to make progress with each of our four discovery and development programs and to work closely with our collaborators," said Kent Snyder, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company. "Senomyx's primary focus has been on advancing our flavor discovery and development programs while expanding our partnerships, which now total eight collaborative agreements with six of the world's leading packaged food and beverage companies. In addition to these efforts, our activities are increasingly focused on the commercialization of our savory flavor ingredients. We are therefore especially pleased to have established a Commercialization Team under the leadership of Sharon Wicker, who was recently appointed to the newly created position of Senior Vice President, Commercial Development and Chief Strategy Officer. Sharon's expertise as a food industry innovator, with product launch experience and successful execution of commercial strategies, makes her the ideal individual to work closely with our collaborators to help ensure timely and successful commercial launches of products containing our flavor ingredients."
Senomyx also increased its intellectual property portfolio during the past quarter with the issuance of three new U.S. patents. In addition to other claims, the issued patents cover cell-based assay methods for identifying new flavor ingredients that modulate the activity of specific taste receptors. "Senomyx is the owner or exclusive licensee of 76 issued patents and 292 pending patent applications in the U.S. and elsewhere," Snyder noted. "We are active in continuing to pursue patent protection for our proprietary technologies, inventions, and flavor ingredients that are commercially important to the development of our business."
Financial Review:
Revenues were $3.2 million for the second quarter 2006, compared to $2.0 million for the second quarter of 2005, an increase of 59%. Revenues were $5.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006, compared to $5.0 million for the same period in 2005, an increase of 13%. These increases are due primarily to the commencement of revenue recognition for the Company's collaboration with Ajinomoto Co., Inc., and increased research funding from another of the Company's collaborators.
Research and development expenses, including stock-based compensation expense, for the second quarter and year to date were $6.3 million and $12.8 million, respectively, for 2006, compared to $5.0 million and $10.1 million, respectively, for 2005. The increase for the year to date is due primarily to increased patent-related expenses associated with expanding the Company's intellectual property portfolio, including the filing of foreign patent applications, as well as increased expenses for scientific supplies and outsourced activities associated with the Company's discovery and development programs.
General and administrative expenses, including stock-based compensation expense, for the second quarter and year to date were $4.0 million and $7.4 million, respectively, for 2006, compared to $2.5 million and $5.1 million, respectively, for 2005. The increase in general and administrative expenses was due to increased non-cash, stock-based compensation expense resulting from the implementation of SFAS 123(R) in the first quarter of 2006 and to increased personnel expenses driven by increased headcount and one-time consulting expenses.
The net loss for the second quarter and year to date were $6.2 million and $12.8 million, or $0.21 per share and $0.43 per share, respectively, for 2006, compared to $5.2 million and $9.8 million, or $0.20 per share and $0.39 per share, respectively, for 2005.
"The second quarter financial results met the Company's expectations," said John Poyhonen, Senior Vice President, Chief Financial and Business Officer. "During the first half of the year our net cash used in operating activities was $3.7 million, which was consistent with our cash utilization plans. We will continue to manage our operations closely as we advance our discovery and development programs towards commercialization."
On the balance sheet, deferred revenue increased approximately $4.4 million from December 31, 2005 to June 30, 2006, primarily due to the receipt of a $5.7 million payment made by a collaborator in advance of associated revenues being recognized.
Property and equipment, net, increased approximately $2.0 million from December 31, 2005 to June 30, 2006. Other non-current liabilities increased approximately $1.0 million from December 31, 2005 to June 30, 2006. The increase in both areas is due to the new facility that the Company will occupy, which the Company expects to be completed in the fourth quarter of 2006. For a more detailed explanation of accounting for the Company's leasehold liability, please see the Company's second quarter 2006 Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, which the Company expects to file on or around August 9, 2006.
Scientific Update:
-- Savory Program: The primary applications of the Company's savory flavor ingredients are to reduce or eliminate monosodium glutamate (MSG) and other additives such as sodium inosinate (IMP), and to enhance the savory taste of foods. One of the Company's collaborators continues its preparations for initial commercialization with activities that include conducting consumer acceptance tests in multiple countries, developing marketing plans, and finalizing arrangements with a manufacturer to produce our flavor ingredients. These efforts are geared toward identifying products and markets that would be involved in the first phase of commercialization. Additionally, Senomyx continues to pursue additional regulatory approvals while conducting product development and application work to support the collaborator's further commercialization activities.
-- Sweet Program: The goal for this program is to identify flavor ingredients that allow a significant reduction of carbohydrate sweeteners in food and beverage products while maintaining the desired sweet taste. The Company's current focus is to improve the potency, water solubility, and other physical properties of these compounds and to conduct taste tests with product prototypes. The optimization efforts are intended to result in flavor ingredients that are easier to work with and have applications in a wide variety of foods and beverages. During the past quarter, Senomyx scientists discovered potential flavor ingredients having up to 1,000-fold greater water solubility than previously identified compounds. Initial taste tests with several of these more water soluble compounds have demonstrated their ability to achieve the desired reduction of the carbohydrate sweetener in product prototypes. Taste tests are planned to evaluate a variety of additional taste parameters in product prototypes to enable our collaborators to assess the commercial viability of products containing these new compounds.
-- Salt Program: The goal of the salt program is to identify flavor ingredients that provide for a significant reduction of sodium in foods and beverages yet maintain the salty taste desirable to consumers. Senomyx is continuing to identify enhancers of the sodium ion channel, ENaC, which is present in human taste cells in two forms - Alpha ENaC and Delta ENaC. During the past quarter, Alpha ENaC enhancers were identified from a new chemical series. In addition, the Company has initiated optimization of several compounds from different chemical series found to be active in the Delta ENaC in vitro assay. Taste tests are underway for these new Alpha ENaC and Delta ENaC enhancers to determine whether they provide a taste effect, which is the ability to maintain the desired salt taste in a reduced-salt product. Timing for commercialization will be driven by achievement of a taste effect by one or more of these enhancers.
-- Bitter Program: The goal of the bitter taste modulation program is to block bitter taste and improve the overall taste characteristics of packaged foods, beverages, and pharmaceutical products. Scientific advances continue to be made on the functional characterization of bitter taste receptors. As reported last quarter, Senomyx had previously demonstrated a functional response to 18 of the 25 known human bitter receptors. Company scientists recently demonstrated the response of two previously uncharacterized bitter receptors to certain bitter-tasting compounds, increasing the total number of receptors for which Senomyx has demonstrated a functional response to 20. Senomyx's researchers are continuing to characterize the receptors that interact with bitter ingredients in foods and pharmaceuticals to evaluate the function of the remaining five receptors, and to develop high-throughput receptor-based screening assays.
-- Exploratory Research Efforts: Experiments have been initiated by Company scientists to identify and characterize other receptors and ion channels that may be involved in taste. The Company's approach is to identify receptors and ion channels present in taste cells using a variety of molecular biology and cellular approaches. Preliminary studies have identified a number of interesting receptors and ion channels for further characterization.
Conference Call:
Senomyx will host a conference call at 11:00 a.m. Eastern Time (8:00 a.m. Pacific Time) today to discuss these financial results and provide an update on the Company.
