Winston Score History

The full picture

Ascelia Pharma is a Swedish clinical-stage biotechnology company focused on developing drugs for patients with serious diseases, particularly cancer. Its lead product is Orviglance (mangafodipir), a contrast agent designed to improve MRI scans in patients with liver problems who cannot safely use standard contrast agents. The company targets hospitals and radiologists as its end customers.

Ascelia Pharma makes no product revenue yet because its drugs are still in clinical development and have not received full regulatory approval for commercial sale. The company is based in Malmö, Sweden, and operates primarily in Europe, though it aims for broader international markets. With a deeply negative return on invested capital and zero gross margin, the business currently runs entirely on external funding, and its key risk is whether Orviglance can clear remaining regulatory hurdles and reach commercial launch — without that approval, the company faces ongoing cash burn and potential dilution for existing shareholders.
