Mesoblast Reports Loss Amid FDA Approval Milestone

Mesoblast Reports Loss Amid FDA Approval Milestone

Mesoblast Limited ( (MEOBF) ) has released its Q2 earnings. Here is a breakdown of the information Mesoblast Limited presented to its investors.

Mesoblast Limited is an Australian company specializing in the development of regenerative medicine products, primarily focusing on mesenchymal lineage adult stem cells, and is dual-listed on the Australian Securities Exchange and Nasdaq. The company’s latest earnings report for the six months ended December 2024 highlights a challenging financial period with a reported net loss of $47.9 million, compared to a $32.5 million loss in the previous year. Despite the financial losses, Mesoblast achieved a significant milestone with the FDA approval of RYONCIL for treating steroid-refractory acute graft versus host disease in children, marking the first FDA-approved mesenchymal stromal cell therapy. Key financial metrics reveal a decrease in revenue to $3.2 million from $3.4 million, alongside increased research and development expenses and manufacturing commercialization costs. The company also reported a substantial increase in share-based payment expenses due to a revised compensation structure. Looking ahead, Mesoblast’s management remains focused on the commercial launch of RYONCIL in the US and the continuation of its clinical development pipeline, supported by recent capital raised through a global private placement.
