jittawit.21/iStock via Getty Images I believe Pharming Group ( PHAR ) has recently passed a critical inflection point and moved from being a highly speculative play into a fundamentally attractive investment. Historically, Pharming has been viewed by the market as a one-product story based upon the success of its hereditary angioedema franchise. Recent updates indicate a major shift away from the historical view of the company's product line. As Pharming enters 2026 with a cash-generating business model, I think it will be able to endure macroeconomic volatility much better than many of its peers that are still in a pre-revenue state. Latest Financials The biggest takeaway from Pharming's last financial updates is the clear trend toward a self-sustaining business model. Pharming reported a preliminary total revenue of $376M in the fiscal year 2025. The preliminary total revenue is important because it shows a 27% year-over-year increase and clearly surpassed the top end of the company's revised revenue guidance of $365-$375M. For many companies in the sector, missing a forecast is common, so beating expectations (in this case) indicates that the company understands the market dynamics and has been conservative with their forecasts. Breaking down the third quarter of 2025 further, the growth became much clearer. Third-quarter revenues were $97.3M, representing a 30% year-over-year increase in revenues over the same time frame as the prior year. Both commercial products had a very successful third quarter. RUCONEST generated $82.2M during the third quarter, representing a 29% year-over-year increase. Joenja generated $15.1M, which represents a very strong 35% year-over-year increase. A stronger-than-expected performance by Joenja is especially exciting because it supports the U.S. commercial launch strategy and provides evidence that the patient identification efforts are beginning to pay off. pharming.com (Investor Presentation) Operating profit jumped 285% in the th...

Key Points Disney's stock hasn't performed well in the last several years and is down 40% in the past five years. Bob Iger returned as CEO in 2022 after the board of directors fired Bob Chapek. Iger previously led Disney for 15 years. D'Amaro's Disney Experiences division is a bright spot for the company, posting record revenue and 8% growth in the first quarter of fiscal 2026. 10 stocks we like better than Walt Disney › It's official: The Walt Disney Company (NYSE: DIS) veteran Josh D'Amaro will succeed Bob Iger as CEO on March 18 of this year. The first time Iger left the company in 2020, he handed the reins to a handpicked choice in Bob Chapek. The Chapek era proved tumultuous for the company, and the board ultimately fired Chapek. His tenure lasted less than three years, and Iger came back to right the wayward ship. Now Iger is ready to step aside again, but this time he and the board of directors chose D'Amaro, the current chairman of Disney Experiences. Where to invest $1,000 right now? Our analyst team just revealed what they believe are the 10 best stocks to buy right now, when you join Stock Advisor. See the stocks » It's a small world after all This transition should be different and better for Disney investors. Disney's board of directors, led by James P. Gorman, painstakingly searched for the next leader of the iconic brand. D'Amaro, a longtime Disney executive, brings a wealth of brand knowledge and is largely responsible for the massive growth in the parks division since 2020. The choice to let D'Amaro lead the storied company should be welcome news for shareholders. D'Amaro joined Disney in 1998 and rose to oversee 12 theme parks and 57 resorts worldwide. Disney also has plans to open a new park in Abu Dhabi. D'Amaro will be flanked by other senior Disney insiders like Dana Walden, who was also promoted to President and Chief Creative Officer. She will begin her new role in March as well. Since Iger's return to the helm in 2022, Disney made significan...

The Indian government has condemned the theft of a bronze statue of Mahatma Gandhi from a community centre in Melbourne’s south-east last month, calling for the culprits to be held accountable. Victoria police are investigating the theft from the Australian Indian Community Centre in Rowville and have warned scrap metal dealers to be wary of people trying to sell the statue of the Indian independence leader. On Tuesday night, the spokesperson for India’s ministry of external affairs, Randhir Jaiswa, said the government had raised the matter with Australia. Sign up: AU Breaking News email “We strongly condemn the vandalization and removal of the Mahatma Gandhi statue located at the Australian Indian Community Centre in Rowville, Melbourne by unidentified people,” he said in a statement posted to social media. “We have strongly raised the matter with Australian authorities and urged them to take immediate action to recover the missing statue and hold the culprits accountable.” Vasan Srinivasan, chair of the Australian Indian Community Charitable Trust, which owns the centre, said the Indian government donated the statue to the centre in 2021. He described Gandhi as an “icon of India” who believed in “people power”. “We have lost it now. There is only one in Victoria,” he said. While Australia’s Indian diaspora has been singled out by anti-immigration rallies, Srinivasan said he did not believe the theft was motivated by racism, noting there was no slogan or graffiti at the scene. The statue was subjected to an attempted beheading in 2021 on the same day the then prime minister Scott Morrison unveiled the statue. Srinivasan said the statue had also been vandalised with anti-Gandhi and anti-Indian graffiti in 2023 and 2024, with the centre later removing it. Statues of Gandhi have also been the subject of controversy overseas, with some activists pointing to Gandhi’s “well-documented anti-black racism”. Gandhi, who died in 1948, is recognised as a key leader in India’s ...
