  • Net loss for Q3 2025 was $39.3M ($(0.62) per share); net loss for the nine months was $85.8M ($(1.35) per share), compared to net income of $143.5M ($(2.34) per share) in 2024.

Outlook and guidance

  • Existing cash and investments expected to fund operations for at least the next 12 months and potentially through 2028.

  • Revenue in 2025 expected to be significantly lower than 2024 due to the absence of large upfront and milestone payments; future revenue dependent on regulatory milestones and commercialization.

  • NDA filing for rusfertide anticipated by year-end 2025; icotrokinra and rusfertide commercialization targeted for 2026; clinical study initiations for triple agonist programs expected in 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.
