Vanda Pharmaceuticals reports Q EPS (8c) vs. (4c) last year

Reports Q4 revenue $56.2M, consensus $52.25M. “Strong revenue growth for Fanapt is putting us on a significant growth trajectory for 2025 and beyond, supported also by the commercial performance of Hetlioz and Ponvory. The Fanapt long acting injectable program, the NDA for Bysanti for bipolar disorder and schizophrenia along with its development for major depressive disorder have the potential to drive future growth in our psychiatry portfolio for many years to come,” said CEO Mihael Polymeropoulos.”Tradipitant’s NDA for motion sickness was filed with a potential approval this year, while we are pursuing approval in gastroparesis and the development of tradipitant to improve tolerability of GLP-1 analog Wegovy. Our anti-inflammatory portfolio, anchored by Ponvory, was strengthened with the addition of imsidolimab from Anaptys, an IL-36 receptor inhibitor for the treatment of generalized pustular psoriasis. We plan to file a BLA later this year while we are exploring registration in Europe and Japan as well as the development of this novel drug for other inflammatory disorders with an unopposed action of the IL-36 system.”
