Shield Therapeutics PLC saw its shares rise 11% after reporting a significant reduction in half-year losses and reaffirming its goal to achieve operating profitability in 2026. The company's revenue increased 42% to $30.4 million, driven by US sales of its iron-deficiency treatment Accrufer, a development milestone from its Chinese partner, and higher royalties. Despite tighter Medicaid rules in New York, US prescriptions grew 21%, with a strategic shift to commercially insured patients. The company ended the period with $8.3 million in cash and expects continued growth, including new contracts and clinical trials, while Peel Hunt maintains a 'buy' rating with a 15p price target, seeing potential for shares to triple if profitability is reached.
