Alkermes reports Q3 adjusted EPS 72c, consensus 74c

Reports Q3 revenue $378.1M, consensus $380.64M. “Our third quarter financial results reflect strong year-over-year growth of our portfolio of proprietary commercial products and position us well to meet our strategic, operational and financial priorities for the year. Looking ahead, we believe growing our proprietary commercial products and advancing our pipeline, particularly ALKS 2680, our novel, investigational, orexin 2 receptor agonist, and additional orexin development candidates, will serve as the key drivers of shareholder value. We plan to manage the business to deliver significant profitability and cash flow while investing in these strategic initiatives,” said Richard Pops, Chief Executive Officer of Alkermes (ALKS). “2025 has the potential to be a transformational year for Alkermes as we expect to complete the ongoing phase 2 studies in narcolepsy type 1 and narcolepsy type 2, and prepare for potential registrational studies for ALKS 2680. With the potential to transform the treatment of hypersomnolence disorders, and with broad potential applicability across other symptomatic domains, orexin 2 receptor agonists represent one of the most exciting new therapeutic categories in development and we believe a significant opportunity for Alkermes and our shareholders.”
