BioCryst Reports Third Quarter 2026 Financial Results
Higher navenibart licensing revenue and international RAPIVAB orders drove the increase in the full-year revenue outlook.
Sentiment and the balance of points
Rhea-AI Sentiment reads the wording of the document, how positive or negative its language is on a 1 to 5 scale. The balance of points shown with the takes weighs what the document actually discloses, so the two can disagree, for example when a trial that missed its main goal is described in upbeat language.
Rhea-AI Summary
BioCryst Pharmaceuticals (BCRX) reported third-quarter 2026 revenue of $180.3 million, alongside higher operating profit and net income than a year earlier. Revenue rose 13% year over year, with ORLADEYO contributing $174.8 million. Operating profit reached $53.3 million, versus $29.6 million; net income was $37.9 million, versus $12.9 million. Growth benefited from CareMed’s initial ORLADEYO inventory build.
The company raised its 2026 total revenue outlook to $715 million–$730 million from $690 million–$715 million, maintained ORLADEYO guidance of $625 million–$645 million, and lowered expected non-GAAP operating expenses to $415 million–$425 million. In October, the FDA approved ORLADEYO oral pellets for HAE patients aged 12 and older. BioCryst expects initial BCX17725 patient data by year-end 2026 and navenibart pivotal results in Q3 2027. Nine-month net loss was $605.5 million, including acquired research and development expense.
How this balance works
Rhea-AI gives every point it takes from this document a weight. Minor counts 1, Moderate 3 and Major 9, so one Major point outweighs several Minor ones. The bar adds up the weights on each side, and when neither side holds more than 65% of the total the balance reads Mixed.
It reads the document as published, with the same rules for every company, and it does not look at what the market expected or at how the stock traded, so a point can be objectively good on a day the stock falls.
Rhea-AI Sentiment measures something else, the tone of the wording.

RESEARCH TRIANGLE PARK, N.C., Nov. 04, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- BioCryst Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Nasdaq:BCRX) today reported financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2026, and provided a business update.
"In the third quarter, we delivered continued growth of ORLADEYO and strong profitability while broadening the foundation for our long-term success," said Charlie Gayer, President and Chief Executive Officer of BioCryst. “We successfully launched ORLADEYO pellets in pediatric patients, received FDA approval for their use in adolescents and adults in October, and implemented our specialty pharmacy transition to CareMed, all of which will make ORLADEYO accessible for more patients. Looking to our pipeline, BCX17725 remains on track for the early clinical data by the end of this year, and we look forward to navenibart pivotal results in the third quarter of 2027. This progress across our business increases our confidence in our ability to drive sustainable growth and lasting value for patients and shareholders."
Business & Corporate Updates
- The launch of ORLADEYO oral pellets in patients with hereditary angioedema (HAE) aged 2 to <12 years began in August. Early reimbursement is strong and new prescriptions continue to be filled ahead of the company’s expectations.
- In October, the FDA approved the company’s supplemental New Drug Application for the use of the oral pellet formulation of once-daily ORLADEYO for patients with HAE aged 12 years and older. This approval enables prescribers to offer their patients a more personalized treatment choice with ORLADEYO in either capsule or pellet form.
- In August, the company commenced operations with CareMed as its sole-source specialty pharmacy partner for ORLADEYO shipments to patients. CareMed’s deep rare disease experience, high-touch patient services, and operational scale make it a strong partner to drive continued growth of ORLADEYO across patient segments and formulations.
- The company is studying navenibart, an investigational, long-acting plasma kallikrein inhibitor, in ALPHA-ORBIT, the ongoing and fully enrolled pivotal study in hereditary angioedema with every three-month and every six-month subcutaneous dosing, and ORBIT-EXPANSE, the long-term extension study. The program remains on track to report top-line results at six- and twelve-month endpoints in Q3 2027.
- The company is studying BCX17725, an investigational KLK5 inhibitor for the treatment of Netherton syndrome (NS), in a Phase 1 trial. The company has enrolled Part 4 of this trial and expects to report initial data in patients with NS by the end of 2026.
- The company's Birmingham site closure activities are on track to be substantially complete by year-end. The company expects the site closure and associated restructuring to result in cash costs of approximately
$10 million total and annualized cost savings of approximately$30 million to$35 million once fully realized, not including additional savings from other program-related expenses. - In October, the company announced the formation of a Scientific Advisory Board comprising seven accomplished scientific and industry leaders to provide independent guidance and expertise for the successful execution of the external R&D strategy.
- The company has discontinued development of STAR-0310, the early-stage atopic dermatitis program acquired through the acquisition of Astria Therapeutics, to focus resources on rare diseases. The company previously paused investment in the program while it explored partnering opportunities, and it has now concluded that effort.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The information furnished in this release and the accompanying tables includes non-GAAP financial measures that differ from measures calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”), including financial measures labeled as “non-GAAP.” As noted under “Third Quarter 2026 Financial Results” above, we believe providing these non-GAAP measures, which show our results with certain items adjusted, is valuable and useful since they can provide greater transparency into the financial results of core, ongoing operations and improve comparability across reporting periods. These non-GAAP measures also correspond with the way we expect investors and financial analysts to compare our results. Our non-GAAP measures should be considered only as supplements to, and not as substitutes for or in isolation from, our other measures of financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation between each non-GAAP financial measure and its respective closest equivalent GAAP financial measure is provided in the tables below.
We also provide our non-GAAP operating expense outlook for full year 2026, which refers to our expected GAAP operating expense, excluding stock-based compensation, restructuring and transaction-related costs. We have not provided a reconciliation against the comparable forward-looking GAAP measure because we are unable to predict with reasonable certainty the full amount of stock-based compensation expense or restructuring or transaction-related costs for the full year 2026 without unreasonable effort. Stock-based compensation expense is uncertain and depends on various factors, including our future hiring and retention needs, as well as the future fair market value of our common stock, which is difficult to predict and subject to change. In addition, we are unable to predict with reasonable certainty the full amount of restructuring and transaction-related costs as the related costs are dependent on various factors that have not yet or have only recently occurred. The actual amount of stock-based compensation, restructuring and transaction-related costs for the full year 2026 could have a material impact on GAAP reported results for the guidance period.
Forward-Looking Statements
This press release contains forward-looking statements, including statements regarding future results, performance or achievements, such as expected full year 2026 revenue and operating expenses, expectations regarding pipeline development, including with respect to the timing of data and plans to report such data, accessibility of ORLADEYO for patients, expectations regarding BioCryst’s future growth and value creation, expectations related to the closure of BioCryst’s Birmingham research facility and wind-down of internal discovery programs, including statements about the expected timing, cost and anticipated related future cost savings, and expectations related to the CareMed transition, including future inventory levels and purchasing patterns. These statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause BioCryst’s actual results, performance, or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance, or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. These statements reflect our current views with respect to future events and are based on assumptions and are subject to risks and uncertainties. Given these uncertainties, you should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. Some of the factors that could affect the forward-looking statements contained herein include: BioCryst’s ability to successfully progress its pipeline development plans as described herein, including meeting the expected timelines; BioCryst’s ability to successfully transition to CareMed and to continue to successfully commercialize ORLADEYO, including the successful launch of the ORLADEYO oral pellet formulation; BioCryst’s ability to successfully execute its plan to close the Birmingham research facility and wind-down its internal discovery programs, including the timing and costs of such actions and its ability to realize the anticipated cost savings; ongoing and future preclinical and clinical development of product candidates may take longer than expected and may not have positive results; the outcome of preclinical testing and early clinical trials may not be predictive of the success of later clinical trials, and interim results of a clinical trial do not necessarily predict final results; BioCryst may not advance human clinical trials with product candidates as expected; the FDA or other applicable regulatory agency may require additional studies beyond the studies planned for products and product candidates, may not provide regulatory clearances which may result in delay of planned clinical trials, may not review regulatory filings on our expected timeline, may impose certain restrictions, warnings, or other requirements on products and product candidates, may impose a clinical hold with respect to product candidates, or may withhold, delay or withdraw market approval for products and product candidates; the results of BioCryst’s partnerships with third parties may not meet BioCryst’s current expectations, including that our partners may fail to reach performance milestones or achieve certain royalty thresholds under our license agreements; statements and projections regarding financial guidance and goals and the attainment of such goals may differ from actual results based on market factors and BioCryst’s ability to execute its operational and budget plans; and actual financial results may not be consistent with expectations, including that revenue, operating expenses and cash usage may not be within management’s expected ranges. This list is not exclusive. To see a more comprehensive list of risks, please refer to the documents BioCryst files periodically with the Securities and Exchange Commission, specifically BioCryst’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, and Current Reports on Form 8-K, which identify important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in BioCryst’s projections and forward-looking statements.

FAQ
AI-generated questions and answers. How Rhea-AI works. Not financial advice.
What is BioCryst’s updated 2026 revenue guidance?
BioCryst expects $715 million to $730 million in total 2026 revenue, up from $690 million to $715 million. ORLADEYO revenue guidance remains $625 million to $645 million. The company attributed the increase primarily to higher navenibart licensing revenue and higher RAPIVAB orders from international partners.
How did BioCryst perform in the third quarter of 2026?
BioCryst reported $180.3 million in revenue, $53.3 million in operating profit and $37.9 million in net income. Revenue increased 13% year over year. Operating profit compared with $29.6 million, and net income compared with $12.9 million, in the third quarter of 2025.
Did CareMed’s inventory build affect BioCryst’s ORLADEYO revenue growth?
CareMed’s initial ORLADEYO inventory build benefited third-quarter revenue growth following its August start as the sole-source specialty pharmacy partner. BioCryst expects that inventory level to remain relatively stable over time. ORLADEYO revenue excluding European revenue also grew year over year after removing the initial inventory-build effect.
What costs and savings does BioCryst expect from closing its Birmingham site?
BioCryst expects the Birmingham closure and associated restructuring to produce approximately $10 million in total cash costs and approximately $30 million to $35 million in annualized savings once fully realized. Those savings exclude additional savings from other program-related expenses. Substantial completion remains targeted for year-end.
