A story on the same day is not a cause, and a group move is not proof either. Group: the median of AMGN, GILD, MRNA and BIIB that day, the largest companies in EXEL’s SEC industry; “moved with EXEL” means the same direction and at least half the size.
What’s next · results
Before the next report: what the first day after the last four did
Six trading days after each results filing (SEC 8-K, Item 2.02). EXEL reports after the close, so day 1 is the next close. 3 of 4 times, day 6 ended on the same side as day 1.

Next report: expected late January to early FebruaryEstimated from the dates of its last four results filings. Not announced. Since the Oct 29 report: +3.79%. Four reports is a small sample.
Each line is EXEL’s close against its close before the filing, on licensed end-of-day closes. What happened after each report, not a forecast; a move on the day is not a cause.
Same industry
EXEL against four biotech peers, a year at 100
EXEL is up 68.4% in a year. Moderna is up 9.8 times. Of these four, Biogen (+56.9%), Amgen (+43.8%) and Gilead Sciences (+41.0%) did less. Weekly closes, Nov 7, 2025 = 100, on a log scale so a 9.8-fold rise and a 41.0% rise both read honestly.
End-of-day closes (Databento EOD), the last close of each week. The four peers are the largest US-listed companies by market value in EXEL’s SEC industry (Biological Products, (No Diagnostic Substances)) with a year of closes. It shows what the closes did; a move here is not a cause, a forecast or a call.
