The company was founded in 2010 as Moderna Therapeutics, with the goal of commercialising the research of stem-cell biologist Derrick Rossi. Apart from Rossi, Moderna’s co-founders were Noubar Afeyan, Robert Langer and Kenneth Chien. In August 2018, the company’s name was changed to Moderna.
In November 2020, Moderna’s Covid-19 vaccine candidate, mRNA-1273, showed preliminary evidence of 94.1 per cent efficacy in preventing the disease in a Phase 3 trial. The results led to its submission for emergency use authorisation in the US, Canada and Europe.
In late November, the EU made a deal with Moderna for up to 160 million doses of its vaccine. In December, the US government exercised its option to buy an additional 100 million doses of Moderna’s mRNA-1273, bringing the confirmed order commitment to 200 million doses.

Moderna’s long-awaited initial public offering (IPO) happened in December 2018, with the firm selling 26.3 million shares priced at $23 each. At the time, it was the biggest biotech IPO ever. Moderna raised over $600m, valuing the company at $7.5bn (£5.6bn, €6.2bn).
In 2020, MRNA stock has been one of the US market’s best performers. This was due to rising investor enthusiasm over the company’s promising Covid-19 vaccine candidate. After opening the year at $19.57, the MRNA share price was on a hike, peaking at $94.85 in mid July. Within a month, it had dropped to $54.23, but then the stock gained another upside momentum, with its price surging past $100 on November 16. On December 8, the stock closed the trading day at $169.86, representing a year-to-date gain of nearly 770 per cent.
