Q1 2026 earnings summary5 May, 2026

Executive summary

  • EDIT-401, an in vivo gene editing therapy for hyperlipidemia and HeFH, is the lead candidate, showing >90% mean LDL-C reduction in preclinical studies and significant reductions in Lp(a) and ApoB in non-human primates; first-in-human trials are planned for 2026 with topline data expected in 2027.

  • The company shifted resources to EDIT-401 after discontinuing the reni-cel program for sickle cell disease and beta thalassemia, resulting in a major workforce reduction and restructuring.

  • Revenue is primarily from collaboration and license agreements, with no product sales to date.

  • U.S. Patent and Trademark Office reaffirmed Broad Institute's CRISPR/Cas9 patent rights, favoring Editas' exclusive license.

Financial highlights

  • Net loss for Q1 2026 was $25.0M ($0.26 per share), a significant improvement from $76.1M ($0.92 per share) in Q1 2025.

  • Collaboration and other R&D revenues were $2.8M for Q1 2026, down 39% year-over-year, mainly due to the conclusion of a collaboration agreement.

  • Operating expenses decreased 66% year-over-year to $27.8M, reflecting lower R&D and G&A costs and absence of restructuring charges.

  • Cash and cash equivalents totaled $123.6M as of March 31, 2026, down from $146.6M at year-end 2025.

  • Accumulated deficit reached $1.7B as of March 31, 2026.

Outlook and guidance

  • Existing cash and cash equivalents expected to fund operations into Q3 2027.

  • Plans to complete enrollment of the dose-finding portion of the EDIT-401 clinical trial with topline data in 2027.

  • Expenses projected to remain consistent as resources focus on advancing EDIT-401 and preclinical pipeline.

  • No profitability expected for 2026 or the foreseeable future.

  • Multiple upcoming scientific and investor presentations scheduled for 2026.

excellent app, it gives me free access to company earnings calls and annual reports. I also love the convenience of calls being available offline so I can listen in whilst doing other things and even when internet or WiFi isn't available.

One of the very few apps you could call perfect. If something was to add to it, maybe the share price of the company when you search for it, but it's already excellent.
