scPharmaceuticals reports Q3 EPS (41c), consensus (30c)

Reports Q3 revenue $3.8M, consensus $10.8M. “The continued growth of FUROSCIX net revenue is encouraging, particularly as we have begun to see increased penetration into the Class IV chronic heart failure patient population following the FDA’s approval of the FUROSCIX expanded indication in August. We anticipate the expansion of the sales force that we completed in late September to have a potentially meaningful impact on sales moving forward. In addition, we saw a significant increase in the FUROSCIX purchase flow from IDNs and hospital systems,” stated John Tucker, President, and Chief Executive Officer of scPharmaceuticals (SCPH). “We remain committed to our FUROSCIX lifecycle initiatives, including the development of our Autoinjector. The Autoinjector is anticipated to meaningfully reduce cost of goods sold over the medium-to-long-term. We continue to advance our pre-launch activities in anticipation of our PDUFA target action date on March 6, 2025, in patients with fluid overload due to CKD. In preparation for the potential indication expansion, we have conducted in depth market research, identified key opinion leaders, and have incorporated high impact nephrology offices that are already treating heart failure patients that also have CKD into our call plan.”
