Shorting Vaxart shares

There are currently 25.6 million Vaxart shares held short by investors – that's known as Vaxart's "short interest". This figure is 7.2% up from 23.9 million last month.

There are a few different ways that this level of interest in shorting Vaxart shares can be evaluated.

Vaxart's "short interest ratio" (SIR)

Vaxart's "short interest ratio" (SIR) is the quantity of Vaxart shares currently shorted divided by the average quantity of Vaxart shares traded daily (recently around 3.8 million). Vaxart's SIR currently stands at 6.73. In other words for every 100,000 Vaxart shares traded daily on the market, roughly 6730 shares are currently held short.

However Vaxart's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of Vaxart shares, or, against the total number of tradable Vaxart shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case Vaxart's short interest could be expressed as 0.22% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 Vaxart shares in existence, roughly 220 shares are currently held short) or 0.2788% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable Vaxart shares, roughly 279 shares are currently held short).

A SIR below 10% would generally be considered to indicate a fairly optimistic outlook for the share price, with fewer people currently willing to bet against Vaxart.

We're not expecting Vaxart to pay a dividend over the next 12 months.

Have Vaxart's shares ever split?

Vaxart's shares were split on a 1:11 basis on 13 February 2018. So if you had owned 11 shares the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 1 share. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Vaxart shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 1000% higher share price could have impacted the market appetite for Vaxart shares which in turn could have impacted Vaxart's share price.

Vaxart share price volatility

Over the last 12 months, Vaxart's shares have ranged in value from as little as $2.23 up to $17.15. A popular way to gauge a stock's volatility is its "beta".

Beta is a measure of a share's volatility in relation to the market. The market (NASDAQ average) beta is 1, while Vaxart's is 0.3538. This would suggest that Vaxart's shares are less volatile than average (for this exchange).
