After dropping 94% from post IPO high from $19.45, a loss exceeding $3 billion and change, ATAI is in the early stages of recovery (in our opinion) gaining 94% since its low in January of 2023.

We were a little early, but picking bottoms is notoriously difficult. ATAI could gain 100% from its recent low of $1.14, before most investors even notice.

A revival in ATAI’s share price is of dramatic significance to the group as a whole. Which is more important to us than anything else.

The most recent news of importance, after disastrous results from the FDA in early January, was that HC Wainwright’s Patrick Trucchio reduced his price target from $50 to $20. Can you believe it, a $20 price target?

We’d be thrown in jail if we even thought about making a projection like that – LOL. We’re regulated to say at most, “..we think it could do well from here!”

PRICE TARGETS

It would be pretty sad if these analysts are only ‘half’ right and investors miss a five-fold gain. It’s not like we didn’t tell you…

At this price level, ATAI should of interest to flippers, traders and long-term investors (us).

HC Wainwright Analyst Still Has Confidence In Atai Life Sciences’ Pipeline Despite Recent Setbacks.

Even with a $20 price target, we caution investors to curb their enthusiasm (no margin, no home equity line of credit).

Yes the $360 million market cap is a long way from its former $3.3 billion – yet dangers remain. Best to play it by ear with no reason to take a double, so long as they continue to show progress with the FDA, while the share price continues to drift higher.

The company has many shots on goal (and $190 million in the bank), success with just one treatment could create dramatic results for the share price and for the sector — something which we are counting on.

The other Company on our Watch List which can re-energize the entire sector is Compass Pathways (CMPS), which has gained 36% from its recent low.

These forward-looking statements are neither promises nor guarantees, and are subject to a number of important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements, including without limitation: we are a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company and have incurred significant losses since our inception, and we expect to incur losses for the foreseeable future and may never be profitable; if we are unable to obtain funding when needed and on acceptable terms, we could be forced to delay, limit or discontinue our product development efforts; our limited operating history may make it difficult to evaluate the success of our business and to assess our future viability; we rely on third parties to assist in conducting our clinical trials and some aspects of our research and preclinical testing, and those third parties may not perform satisfactorily, including failing to meet deadlines for the completion of such trials, research, or testing; we currently rely on qualified therapists working at third-party clinical trial sites to administer certain of our product candidates in our clinical trials and we expect this to continue upon approval, if any, of our current or future product candidates, and if third-party sites fail to recruit and retain a sufficient number of therapists or effectively manage their therapists, our business, financial condition and results of operations would be materially harmed; our product candidates are in preclinical or clinical development, which is a lengthy and expensive process with uncertain outcomes, and we cannot give any assurance that any of our product candidates will receive regulatory approval, which is necessary before they can be commercialized; research and development of drugs targeting the central nervous system, or CNS, is particularly difficult, and it can be difficult to predict and understand why a drug has a positive effect on some patients but not others; the production and sale of our product candidates may be considered illegal or may otherwise be restricted due to the use of controlled substances, which may also have consequences for the legality of investments from foreign jurisdictions; we face significant competition in an environment of rapid technological and scientific change, and there is a possibility that our competitors may achieve regulatory approval before we do or develop therapies that are safer, more advanced or more effective than ours, which may negatively impact our ability to successfully market or commercialize any product candidates we may develop and ultimately harm our financial condition; if we are unable to obtain and maintain sufficient intellectual property protection for our existing product candidates or any other product candidates that we may identify, or if the scope of the intellectual property protection we currently have or obtain in the future is not sufficiently broad, our competitors could develop and commercialize product candidates similar or identical to ours, and our ability to successfully commercialize our existing product candidates and any other product candidates that we may pursue may be impaired; third parties may claim that we are infringing, misappropriating or otherwise violating their intellectual property rights, the outcome of which would be uncertain and may prevent or delay our development and commercialization efforts; our future success depends on our ability to retain key employees, directors, consultants and advisors and to attract, retain and motivate qualified personnel; as a result of covenants to our loan agreement with Hercules Capital, Inc., our operating activities may be restricted and we may be required to repay the outstanding indebtedness in the event of a breach by us, or an event of default thereunder, which could have a materially adverse effect on our business; if we fail to maintain an effective system of disclosure controls and internal control over financial reporting our ability to produce timely and accurate financial statements or comply with applicable regulations could be impaired; our business is subject to economic, political, regulatory and other risks associated with international operations; a pandemic, epidemic, or outbreak of an infectious disease, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, may materially and adversely affect our business, including our preclinical studies, clinical trials, third parties on whom we rely, our supply chain, our ability to raise capital, our ability to conduct regular business and our financial results, and other risks, uncertainties, and assumptions described under “Risk Factors” in Item 1A of Part I, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in Item 7 of Part II and elsewhere in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
