|---|---|---|---|---|
| Nov 25 | Regulatory timeline update | Negative | -1.1% | FDA classified new data as major amendment, extending PDUFA to Feb 28, 2026. |
| Nov 17 | Clinical trial results | Positive | +0.3% | Pivotal ApproaCH trial showed higher growth velocity and favorable safety in achondroplasia. |
| Nov 12 | Quarterly earnings | Neutral | -1.0% | Q3 2025 revenue growth and operating profit offset by net loss from finance expense. |
| Nov 07 | Clinical data update | Positive | -0.8% | Three-year pooled analysis showed sustained renal improvements in TransCon PTH–treated adults. |

Recent news spanning clinical data, regulatory updates, and earnings has produced only modest single-day price moves, with both aligned and divergent reactions to generally positive developments.
Over the last few months, Ascendis reported multiple milestones. A 3-year pooled analysis for TransCon PTH and pivotal ApproaCH trial results for TransCon CNP highlighted sustained clinical benefits. Q3 2025 results showed revenue rising to €213.6M with continued net losses and notable finance expenses. The FDA later extended the TransCon CNP PDUFA date to Feb 28, 2026. Today’s J.P. Morgan conference participation notice fits into this pattern of regular clinical, regulatory, and investor communications.
Market Pulse Summary
This announcement outlines Ascendis’ plan to present a business update at the J.P. Morgan Healthcare Conference on January 12, 2026. It follows recent clinical, regulatory, and financial disclosures, including pivotal TransCon CNP data and Q3 2025 results. The event may provide additional color rather than entirely new catalysts. Investors may watch for commentary on regulatory timelines, commercial performance, and pipeline priorities during the webcast and subsequent 30-day replay period.
