In the current market session, Exelixis Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EXEL#NASDAQ">EXEL</a>) stock price is at $45.07, after a 2.57% drop. However, over the past month, the company's stock went up by 26.64%, and in the past year, by 114.01%. Shareholders might be interested in knowing whether the stock is overvalued, even if the company is not performing up to par in the current session. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1747411231_0.png" alt="Past Year Chart" />

<h3>A Look at Exelixis P/E Relative to Its Competitors</h3>
The P/E ratio is used by long-term shareholders to assess the company's market performance against aggregate market data, historical earnings, and the industry at large. A lower P/E could indicate that shareholders do not expect the stock to perform better in the future or it could mean that the company is undervalued. 
Compared to the aggregate P/E ratio of the 53.15 in the Biotechnology industry, Exelixis Inc. has a lower P/E ratio of 21.12. Shareholders might be inclined to think that the stock might perform worse than it's industry peers. It's also possible that the stock is undervalued. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1747411231_1.png" alt="Guage" />

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.

Price Target

Citigroup Maintains Buy on Exelixis, Raises Price Target to $56

Exelixis Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EXEL#NASDAQ">EXEL</a>) on Tuesday reported its first quarter of 2025 adjusted earnings of 62 cents per share, compared to 17 cents a year ago, beating the <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/calendars/earnings" rel="noreferrer noopener">consensus of 36 cents</a>.
The cancer-focused company reported quarterly sales of $555.45 million, beating the <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/biotech/25/05/45410642/exelixis-crushes-q1-earnings-estimates-with-strong-cabometyx-sales-raises-2025-revenue-guidance" rel="noreferrer noopener">consensus of $498.18 million</a>.
Total revenues included net product revenues of&nbsp;$513.3 million, compared to&nbsp;$378.5 million&nbsp;for the comparable period in 2024.

Guidance: &#8220;Based on the strong first quarter dynamics of CABOMETYX, we&#8217;re increasing our 2025 full year financial guidance for net product revenues and total revenues by $100 million,&#8221; <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/biotech/25/05/45410642/exelixis-crushes-q1-earnings-estimates-with-strong-cabometyx-sales-raises-2025-revenue-guidance">said</a> Michael M. Morrissey, president and CEO of Exelixis.
The company raised fiscal 2025 sales guidance from $2.15 billion-$2.25 billion to $2.25 billion-$2.35 billion, versus the consensus of $2.25 billion.
Stifel writes, &#8220;We note the NET launch should prove a tailwind to FY25 topline growth and command an additional guidance raise above the $100 million announced today. We continue to believe 2H25 zanzalintinib clinical catalysts will prove a more significant driver of investor enthusiasm&#8230;&#8221;
Analyst Stephen Willey highlights, &#8220;Management noted there is a significant overlap between target NET physicians and legacy Cabometyx prescribers and believes Cabometyx is well positioned to capture a significant portion of the small molecule NET market, which, per management, is estimated at $1B in FY25.&#8221;
Willey maintains the Hold rating for Exelixis and raises the price <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/EXEL/analyst-ratings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">target from $36 to $38</a>.
Stifel updated fiscal 2025, 2026 and 2027 Cabometyx sales estimates, primarily reflecting continued first-line RCC share gains and an accelerated NET launch trajectory.

Exelixis Stock Soars As Analysts Applaud Raised 2025 Guidance, Q1 Earnings Beat

U.S. tech stocks extended their weekly rally into Wednesday's session, lifted by renewed investor appetite for risk following a breakthrough in early-week U.S.-China trade negotiations. This reignited hopes for a more <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/tariffs">stable global trade outlook. </a>
The Nasdaq 100 rose 0.5% by midday in New York, reaching levels last seen in late February. Heavyweight chipmakers led the rally, as Nvidia Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) surged 4% and Advanced Micro Devices Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMD#NASDAQ">AMD</a>) jumped 5%.
Traders welcomed mounting expectations of large-scale investments from Gulf nations into U.S. tech and semiconductor sectors, as President Donald Trump secured new economic agreements with <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45417156/nvidia-amd-stocks-climb-as-trump-plans-to-ease-ai-chip-export-rules">Middle Eastern countries</a>, including Saudi Arabia and Syria.
While the Nasdaq marched higher, the S&amp;P 500 stalled and both the Dow Jones Industrial Average and Russell 2000 slipped slightly, indicating a more selective rally focused on high-growth sectors.
Clean energy and solar stocks outperformed again, building on strong Tuesday gains. Investors cheered a less-severe-than-expected revision to clean energy tax credits in the latest Republican tax proposal.
The commodity space told a different story, with gold prices dropping nearly 2%, breaking below the $3,200 per ounce mark for the first time in over a month. 
The yellow metal is now tracking its worst weekly performance since November 2024, with two trading sessions still left this week.
Investors appear to be rotating out of safe-haven assets, as appetite for equities and riskier plays returns on global trade optimism. 
Rising Treasury yields also weighed on broader market sentiment. The yield on the 2-year Treasury note broke above 4%, hitting its highest level in more than two months. Meanwhile, the 30-year bond yield rose 5 basis points to 4.97%, drawing closer to the psychologically important 5% mark—a level often associated with tightening financial conditions and pressure on long-duration assets.

&#8220;Exelixis delivered outstanding financial performance in the first quarter of 2025, driven by accelerating growth in Cabometyx demand, new patient starts, and revenues,&#8221; said Michael M. Morrissey, president and CEO of Exelixis.
&#8220;The&nbsp;Exelixis&nbsp;commercial team rapidly mobilized for the launch of CABOMETYX in advanced neuroendocrine tumors (NET) within hours of receiving&nbsp;U.S.&nbsp;regulatory approval in late March. We are very pleased with the initial reception and plan to provide further updates to our 2025 financial guidance as we build momentum on the NET launch and gain further clarity on additional revenue opportunities for 2025,&#8221; Morrissey added.
Guidance: &#8220;Based on the strong first quarter dynamics of CABOMETYX, we&#8217;re increasing our 2025 full year financial guidance for net product revenues and total revenues by&nbsp;$100 million,&#8221; Morrissey said.

The molecule was discovered in part through a collaboration between Exelixis and Invenra.
&#8220;Regarding flagship product Cabometyx, we are encouraged by its continued strength in RCC and expect the recent approval in late-line NETs to potentially drive the next leg of growth,&#8221; William Blair analyst Andy T. Hsieh wrote on Wednesday.
&#8220;The NETs market is expected to grow at a 9% compound annual rate to $4.6 billion by 2030. Based on our prior analysis, the total addressable market for Cabometyx in this indication stands at $900 million, thus representing a material expansion opportunity, in our view.&#8221;

<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>

Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
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.
