Report by MDC Financial Research

ABUS should experience high volatility when the US Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit issues its Decisions in Appellate Case Numbers: 20-1184 & 20-2329. Although Decisions may still be a few months away, these Patents relate to a Nucleic Acid delivery system comprising of a composite of multiple lipids. This delivery system appears to have ranges that overlap with Moderna's recent Covid-19 Vaccine; and therefore, ABUS may have grounds for an eventual Patent Infringement lawsuit.
