H.C. Wainwright 28th Annual Global Investment Conference summary
15 Sep, 2026Portfolio overview and recent approvals
Five approved products in the U.S. market, with a sixth (imsidolimab for GPP) potentially approved by year-end.
Recent launches include NEREUS for motion sickness and BYSANTI, an atypical antipsychotic for bipolar and schizophrenia.
Multiple phase III clinical readouts expected by end of 2026 for HETLIOZ, VQW-765, and NEREUS in new indications.
BYSANTI launch planned by year-end, with label expansion for MDD targeted for 2028 pending positive data.
Diversified commercial portfolio with ongoing expansion and clinical milestones.
Financial outlook and investment trajectory
Started the year with $260 million in cash, ending Q2 with $170 million due to high operating expenses from multiple launches and trials.
Expenses expected to moderate starting Q4 2026 as major investments conclude.
2027 vision includes a growing psychiatry portfolio, BYSANTI launch, and a switch strategy as Fanapt loses exclusivity.
Future investments and catalysts will depend on upcoming clinical readouts.
Psychiatry franchise strategy
Fanapt has over 15 years on the market, with recent bipolar indication driving 30% revenue and script growth year-over-year.
Fanapt expected to lose exclusivity at end of 2027; BYSANTI, a bioequivalent, will be positioned for patient switching and new patient growth.
Medicaid price reset with BYSANTI expected to improve gross-to-net from 50% (Fanapt) to mid-30s, boosting revenue.
Phase III MDD data for BYSANTI expected in early 2027, with potential label expansion in 2028.
MDD market seen as highly attractive due to large, accessible patient population and significant unmet need.
