If you’re on the hunt for stocks to watch today, Xenetic Biosciences, Inc. (NASDAQ:XBIO) is a stock to give close attention to. The company shares are trading 10.84% or 0.18 points down from last closing price of $1.66, reaching $1.48 at last check. The XBIO share price has dropped in 2 of the last 5 days and is down -39.86% over the past week. It will be exciting to see whether the stock manages to continue decreasing or take a minor break for the next few days. The move came on weak volume too with far less shares changing hands than in a normal session. Trading activity as of this writing weakened by -1,446,375 shares, and in total 663825 shares valued at $982461 were seen changing hands compared with 2.11 million shares valued at $3.503 million recorded at the previous session. You should take into consideration that a falling volume on lower prices shows the bearish trend but this is an early indication which means that the XBIO stock is near its bottom.
Xenetic Biosciences, Inc. (XBIO) shares have notched a 3-month decline of about -39.86%, but has still tumbled -91.57% year to date. By comparison, the stock sank -94.78% over the past 12 months, while it jumped 15.28% over the 1 month. The company’s market cap is around $6.82M, with its short interest ratio standing at 0.09%.
In the current trading session for XBIO, the stock witnessed two major price actions, it rose to a high of $1.7 and was down as much as $1.46 at one point. The high recorded is very low when compared to their 52-week high which is $0.99. The 52-week high is now at -96.58 distance from current price. Their recent low of $44.4 represents a 53.07% recovery. This data is quite important for investors who look to benefit from the recent rise of the company’s stock. The price target currently for XBIO is $10, this is below the recent high that the stock attained. Taking a look at the overall sentimental views of financial analysts, the trading pattern of this stock recently is very clear.
XBIO‘s last price was down -87.89% as compared to the average trading price of 50 days recorded at $12.22 while enlarging the period to 200 trading days, the average closing price was $1.45. At present, there are 4.11 million in the total number of common shares owned by the public and among those 2.77 million shares have been available to trade. The percentage of shares being held by the company management was 7.5% while institutions stake was 30.3%. The company has generated negative returns on equity over the last 12 months (-93.1%). It managed to keep its gross profit margin at 0% over the past 12 months.
When assessing the full upside of the XBIO stock, there is another set of technicals that should be looked into and considered. Its 24.6% gain from moving average of $1.19 has brought about a positive sentiment when calculated over the last 20 days. The market has allocated a beta of 2.53 to the stock. With the beta been greater than one, this implies that the company shares are theoretically more volatile than the market, something that the traders definitely are keeping an eye on.
In the last five years, the EPS of the company has been roughly 19.4%. Though the percentage looks encouraging, extra headwinds are emerging as looking out over a next 5-year period, with analysts estimating that their earnings will decrease annually by 0%. The revenue of the company has retreated at an average annualized rate of about 0 over the last five years. The company recently recorded a drop of 0%, but this figure is rather unattractive.

Presentation with Live Audio Webcast on Wednesday, October 23rd at 2:45 PM PT
FRAMINGHAM, MA / ACCESSWIRE / October 16, 2019 / Xenetic Biosciences, Inc. (NASDAQ:XBIO) ("Xenetic" or the "Company"), a biopharmaceutical company focused on advancing XCART, a personalized chimeric antigen receptor T cell ("CAR T") platform technology engineered to target patient-specific tumor neoantigens, announced today that Jeffrey Eisenberg, Chief Executive Officer of Xenetic, will present at BIO Investor Forum on Wednesday, October 23, 2019 at 2:45 PM PT in San Francisco, CA.
As part of his presentation, Mr. Eisenberg will provide a Company overview and discuss the Company's novel CAR T platform technology, called "XCART," a proximity-based screening platform capable of identifying CAR constructs that can target patient-specific tumor neoantigens, with a demonstrated proof of mechanism in B-cell Non-Hodgkin lymphomas. Xenetic is currently advancing the development program for XCART to confirm the positive preclinical results shown to date and to demonstrate a more attractive safety profile than existing therapies.
In addition to the presentation, management will also be available to participate in one-on-one meetings with qualified members of the investor community who are registered to attend the conference.

Xenetic Biosciences is a biopharmaceutical company focused on the acquisition, research and development of novel oncology therapeutics, including next-generation cellular immunotherapies for difficult to treat cancers, including B-cell Lymphomas, as well as improved biologic drugs. The Company recently announced its plans to acquire the XCART platform, a novel CAR T technology engineered to target patient- and tumor- specific neoantigens. The acquisition is subject to conditions typical for a transaction of this kind, including appropriate stockholder approvals, and is expected to close in the first half of 2019. The Company plans to initially apply the XCART technology to develop cell-based therapeutics for the treatment of B-cell Lymphomas. We believe our personalized T cell therapies have the potential to offer cancer patients substantial benefits over the existing standard of care and currently approved CAR T therapies.
Xenetic's Phase 2 oncology asset, XBIO-101 (sodium cridanimod), is a small-molecule investigational immunomodulator and interferon inducer which, in exploratory clinical studies, has also been shown to increase progesterone receptor (PrR) and estrogen receptor (ER) expression in certain tumor tissues. The Company plans to pursue collaborations with immuno-oncology (I-O) companies in which it would seek to use XBIO-101 in combination with approved or developmental I-O compounds such as checkpoint inhibitors.
Additionally, Xenetic's proprietary drug development platform, PolyXen™, enables next-generation biologic drugs by improving their half-life and other pharmacological properties. The Company has ongoing business development activities to explore partnerships utilizing its PolyXen delivery platform.
