Q2 2026 earnings summary
14 Aug, 2026Executive summary
Clinical-stage biopharma focused on brain-penetrant therapies for neuropsychiatric and neurodegenerative diseases, with a pipeline including NMRA-511 (Alzheimer's agitation), NMRA-898 (schizophrenia), and NMRA-215 (obesity/CV risk), advancing toward key clinical milestones in late 2026.
Discontinued navacaprant in major depressive disorder after Phase 3 trial failures in June 2026, shifting focus to other pipeline assets.
Leadership transition with Joshua Pinto, Ph.D., appointed CEO, Paul L. Berns as Executive Chair, and Doron Sagman, M.D., as Chief Medical Officer.
No product revenue to date; operations funded by equity, debt, and collaborations.
Financial highlights
Cash and cash equivalents were $116.8 million as of June 30, 2026, down from $182.5 million at year-end 2025, expected to fund operations into Q3 2027.
Net loss for Q2 2026 was $43.1 million, improved from $52.7 million in Q2 2025; net loss per share was $0.23.
Research and development expenses were $29.3 million, down 24% year-over-year for Q2, mainly due to the conclusion of the navacaprant program.
General and administrative expenses were $12.9 million, down 16% year-over-year for Q2.
Interest expense rose to $1.8 million for Q2 2026 due to higher term loan balances.
Outlook and guidance
Cash runway projected to support operations into Q3 2027, but substantial doubt exists about the ability to continue as a going concern; current cash may be insufficient to fund operations for 12 months from the report date.
Plans to finance future needs through equity, debt, or strategic collaborations, but no assurance of success.
Pipeline catalysts expected in late 2026 include Phase 1 and 2 trial initiations and data readouts for NMRA-511, NMRA-898, and NMRA-215; IND submission for NMRA-215 planned for Q4 2026.
