Novavax uses proprietary technology to produce vaccine candidates, which are genetically engineered three-dimensional nanostructures that incorporate recombinant proteins critical to disease pathogenesis.

The company is also developing proprietary technology for the production of immune stimulating saponin-based adjuvants through its Swedish subsidiary, Novavax AB.
In 2016, the company's Phase III trial of its RSV vaccine had failed to meet its endpoints, which caused its share price to fall and led the company to lay off 30% of its employees.
Currently, analysts are estimating that Novavax, Inc. (NVAX) will hit a $3.70 price target and the median price target for the stock is set at $1.50.
