Where RIGL is headed

Rigel in mid-2028 looks nothing like the perpetually-diluting biotech investors filed under 'avoid' for a decade. Three commercial drugs (TAVALISSE for chronic ITP, REZLIDHIA for IDH1-mutant AML, GAVRETO for RET-fusion cancers) are throwing off cash. Free cash flow just crossed $79M on a $745M market cap. Operating margin sits above 20%. This is a biotech that acts like a specialty pharma, and the market is still pricing it like a burn-rate story from 2019.
