Lexaria Bioscience stock hits 52-week low at $1.14

In a challenging year for Lexaria Bioscience (NASDAQ:LEXX) Corp., the company’s stock has tumbled to a 52-week low, touching down at $1.14. With a market capitalization of just $20.4 million and an overall "WEAK" Financial Health Score according to InvestingPro, the company faces significant headwinds. This latest price level reflects a significant downturn for the biotech firm, which has seen its shares plummet by 62.14% over the past year. While the company maintains a strong current ratio of 4.24 and holds more cash than debt, analysts have set price targets ranging from $6 to $8. Investors have been closely monitoring the stock’s performance, as the company navigates through a period marked by volatility and uncertainty within the broader biotech sector.
