Uncovering Potential: Intellinetics's Earnings Preview

<p>Artificial intelligence has <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/25/05/45338301/zuckerberg-foresees-tech-industry-revolution-with-ai-an-ai-that-can-effectively-be-a-sort-of-midlevel-engineer">captured the imagination</a> of virtually every company in the tech world as the technology rapidly becomes more powerful. <strong>Perplexity</strong>, an AI startup and a potential threat to <strong>Alphabet Inc</strong>&#8216;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) <strong>Google</strong>, was valued at $14 billion in its latest funding round.</p>
<p><strong>What Happened:</strong> The company is in advanced talks with venture-capital firm Accel for a $500 million funding round that places the San Francisco-based company <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/04/44865115/figure-ai-shakes-silicon-valley-with-39-5b-valuation-200000-robots-promised-by-2029-beating-out-spacex-and-openai">among the most valuable</a> AI startups, <a href="https://www.wsj.com/tech/ai-startup-perplexitys-valuation-surges-to-14-billion-in-fresh-funding-round-26124482?msockid=21c662101c496b42343370ae1de86aaa">according</a> to The Wall Street Journal.</p>
<p>The company was valued at $9 billion in November 2024, representing an over 50% increase in valuation in the past six months. However, the $14 billion figure falls under the start-up&#8217;s desired $18 billion valuation in March, <a href="https://x.com/haydenfield/status/1921981248857084190">according</a> to CNBC&#8217;s Hayden Field.</p>
<p><strong>Jeff Bezos</strong> and Japan&#8217;s <strong>SoftBank Group</strong> are among Perplexity&#8217;s past investors, according to Reuters.</p>
<p><strong>Why it Matters:</strong> Perplexity is a search engine that delivers answers to any question by searching the web and compiling information from multiple sources. Unlike traditional search engines, it provides inline citations, allowing users to verify facts easily. Despite some enthusiasm, Perplexity faces many hurdles, including high infrastructure costs and concerns over the legality of its content.</p>
<p>Several reports have likened Perplexity to a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45311557/gene-munster-warns-googles-search-grip-is-slipping-as-chatgpt-alters-user-behavior-doj-turns-up-the-heat">rival of Google</a> as the latter experiences <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45339953/apple-exec-says-iphone-users-are-ditching-google-search-now-chamath-palihaptiya-urges-the-tech-giant-to-stop-waiting-for-data-and-start-fighting-models-like-chatgpt">stagnant search query</a> growth. While the Mountain View, California-based company still maintains a dominant industry position with its search business, its market share sits at its lowest in decades.</p>

A Peek at Quoin Pharmaceuticals's Future Earnings

<p>Last Wednesday, <strong>NeuroSense Therapeutics Ltd.</strong> (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NRSN#NASDAQ">NRSN</a>) said it scaled up its production of <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/health-care" rel="noreferrer noopener">PrimeC to a commercial scale</a>.</p>
<p>PrimeC, NeuroSense&#8217;s lead drug candidate, is a novel extended-release oral formulation with a unique fixed-dose combination of two FDA-approved drugs: ciprofloxacin and celecoxib for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), a neurodegenerative disease.</p>
<p>NeuroSense said it bolstered its supply chain by implementing comprehensive Chemistry, Manufacturing, and <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/05/n45251140/neurosense-therapeutics-announces-successful-completion-of-commercial-manufacturing-scale-up-for-p" rel="noreferrer noopener">Controls (CMC) enhancements</a>.</p>
<p>Additionally, the company partnered with a global contract development and manufacturing organization (CDMO) that currently manufactures PrimeC clinical batches and will support its future commercial supply.</p>
<p><strong><em>Also Read: <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41571215/exclusive-nano-cap-neurosense-schedules-fda-meeting-to-advance-lead-program-and-marketing-applicatio" rel="noreferrer noopener">EXCLUSIVE: Nano-Cap NeuroSense Schedules FDA Meeting To Advance Lead Program And Marketing Application Submission</a></em></strong></p>
<p>Stability data support a shelf life of at least&nbsp;36 months at room temperature, and formulation IP granted in 2023 provides protection through 2042.</p>
<p>NeuroSense is working to advance discussions with Health Canada to pursue early market entry through the Notice of Compliance with Conditions (NOC/c) pathway.</p>
<p>Commercial forecasts suggest a potential peak annual revenue of $100–150 million in&nbsp;Canada.</p>
<p><strong>D. Boral Capital</strong> initiated coverage on NeuroSense on Monday with a Buy rating and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/NRSN/analyst-ratings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">a price forecast of $14</a>.</p>
<p>Analyst <strong>Jason Kolbert</strong> says, &#8220;The mechanistic rationale is supported by both preclinical and translational research, positioning PrimeC as a multimodal therapy in a field still dominated by marginally effective monotherapies.&#8221;</p>
<p>D. Boral writes that the ongoing Phase 2b PARADIGM trial is designed to provide further validation and is expected to report topline results in the second half of 2025.</p>
<p>In April, NeuroSense shared new findings from its Phase&nbsp;2b&nbsp;PARADIGM clinical trial. The data highlights the impact of PrimeC on microRNA (miRNA) modulation, representing a significant development in understanding how the therapy may slow disease progression.</p>
<p>It reveals the consistent effect of PrimeC on altering the expression of miRNAs associated with ALS, aligning with the previously reported clinical benefits, including a 33% reduction in disease progression and a 58% improvement in survival rates observed with PrimeC treatment.</p>
<p>The analyst notes that NeuroSense is expanding its platform into Alzheimer&#8217;s and Parkinson&#8217;s disease, leveraging the same pathophysiologic targets with modified drug combinations. This modular approach could significantly broaden the company&#8217;s addressable market while maintaining development efficiency.</p>
<p>&#8220;We believe NeuroSense is at an inflection point where clinical proof-of-concept data, coupled with upcoming catalysts, could drive substantial value creation,&#8221; Kolbert adds.</p>
<p>In August 2024, NeuroSense Therapeutics said it was in advanced discussions with several multi-billion-dollar pharmaceutical companies regarding a potential strategic partnership to develop and <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/biotech/24/08/40596888/exclusive-neurosense-therapeutics-in-advanced-talks-with-several-multi-billion-dollar-pharma-comp" rel="noreferrer noopener">commercialize PrimeC for&nbsp;ALS</a>.</p>

EQIX

What 16 Analyst Ratings Have To Say About Equinix

<p><strong>Zoetis's</strong> (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ZTS#NYSE">ZTS</a>) short percent of float has risen 21.39% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has <strong>9.33 million shares sold short</strong>, which is 2.1% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, <strong>it would take traders 3.49 days to cover their short positions on average.</strong></p>
<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
<p>Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.</p>
<p>Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.</p>
<p><strong>See Also:</strong> <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/short-interest?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage"><strong>List of the most shorted stocks</strong></a></p>
<h3>Zoetis Short Interest Graph (3 Months)</h3>
<p><img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1747076431_0_0.png" alt="short_fig" /></p>
<p>As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for Zoetis has grown since its last report. This does not mean that the stock is going to fall in the near-term but traders should be aware that more shares are being shorted.</p>
<h3>Comparing Zoetis's Short Interest Against Its Peers</h3>
<p>Peer comparison is a popular technique amongst analysts and investors for gauging how well a company is performing. A company's peer is another company that has similar characteristics to it, such as industry, size, age, and financial structure.

It was sold to a private equity firm in 1994 and then went public in 1999, and numerous acquisitions have since been made to fill the gaps in Wesco's geographical and product coverage. Today, the firm primarily distributes electrical, networking, security, and utility equipment used in the construction and repair of structures such as offices, data centers, power transmission lines, and manufacturing plants.

<h3>ZoomInfo Technologies P/E Ratio Analysis in Relation to Industry Peers</h3>
<p>The P/E ratio measures the current share price to the company's EPS. It is used by long-term investors to analyze the company's current performance against it's past earnings, historical data and aggregate market data for the industry or the indices, such as S&amp;P 500. A higher P/E indicates that investors expect the company to perform better in the future, and the stock is probably overvalued, but not necessarily. It also could indicate that investors are willing to pay a higher share price currently, because they expect the company to perform better in the upcoming quarters. This leads investors to also remain optimistic about rising dividends in the future. </p>
<p>Compared to the aggregate P/E ratio of <strong>26.22</strong> in the Interactive Media &amp; Services industry, ZoomInfo Technologies Inc. has a higher P/E ratio of <strong>116.88</strong>. Shareholders might be inclined to think that ZoomInfo Technologies Inc. might perform better than its industry group. It's also possible that the stock is overvalued. </p>
<p>
</p><p><img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1747076424_1.png" alt="Guage" /></p>

<p>In conclusion, the price-to-earnings ratio is a useful metric for analyzing a company's market performance, but it has its limitations. While a lower P/E can indicate that a company is undervalued, it can also suggest that shareholders do not expect future growth. Additionally, the P/E ratio should not be used in isolation, as other factors such as industry trends and business cycles can also impact a company's stock price. Therefore, investors should use the P/E ratio in conjunction with other financial metrics and qualitative analysis to make informed investment decisions. </p>
