Key Terms

primary immunodeficiencies, mitochondrial dna (mtdna), pivotal clinical trial, standard of care
4 terms
primary immunodeficiencies medical
"pipeline programs in primary immunodeficiencies (PIDs) with immune dysregulation"
Primary immunodeficiencies are a group of usually inherited conditions in which parts of the body’s immune system are missing or do not work properly — think of the immune system as a home security system with broken sensors. They matter to investors because they define patient populations, drive demand for specialized therapies and diagnostics, influence clinical trial design and regulatory incentives, and can affect revenue potential and valuation for companies developing treatments.
mitochondrial dna (mtdna) medical
"mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA)‑driven mitochondrial disease"
Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) is the small ring of genetic material found inside mitochondria, the cell’s energy-producing “batteries.” It carries a handful of genes that help cells make energy and can reveal inherited conditions, aging-related changes, or metabolic problems. For investors, mtDNA matters because it is a target for diagnostic tests, certain therapies and biomarkers, and can influence the market potential of companies developing genetic tests, treatments, or personalized medicine.
pivotal clinical trial medical
"The pivotal FALCON clinical trial is ongoing and remains on track"
A pivotal clinical trial is a late-stage medical study designed to provide the main evidence regulators use to decide whether a drug or medical device can be approved and sold; think of it as the product’s final exam. For investors, the trial’s outcome is critical because a clear pass can unlock regulatory approval, market access and future revenue, while failure can halt commercialization and materially affect a company’s valuation.
standard of care medical
"has the potential to become the first standard of care in this setting"
Standard of care is the accepted medical treatment or clinical approach that most qualified doctors would use for a given condition today, based on available evidence, guidelines and common practice. For investors, it acts like the baseline product customers expect: a new therapy or device must match or improve on the standard of care to win market share, gain reimbursement and limit legal or regulatory risk.

  • Highlights advancing clinical-stage pipeline, including two major value-creating programs for primary immunodeficiencies (PIDs) with immune dysregulation and mtDNA-driven mitochondrial disease
  • Introduces napazimone (KL1333) as the compound name for the mtDNA-driven mitochondrial disease program
  • 2026 total revenue guidance of US$405 – US$425 million (8% to 13% growth)

Leiden, The Netherlands, February 3, 2026: Pharming Group N.V. (“Pharming” or “the Company”) (EURONEXT Amsterdam: PHARM/Nasdaq: PHAR) today announced 2026 financial guidance and will highlight its advancing clinical-stage rare disease pipeline, including two major value-creating programs, at a virtual Investor Day taking place later today.

The Investor Day will focus on the scientific rationale, clinical strategy, and long‑term opportunity underpinning Pharming’s pipeline programs in primary immunodeficiencies (PIDs) with immune dysregulation and mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA)‑driven mitochondrial disease.

Fabrice Chouraqui, Chief Executive Officer of Pharming, commented:
“Pharming’s vision of developing into a leading global rare disease company is grounded in the strength of our two commercial products and our high-value pipeline. We expect our commercial portfolio to continue delivering robust growth, with total revenues between US$405 million and US$425 million in 2026. We are excited to showcase the breadth and quality of our pipeline at today’s Investor Day. Leniolisib and napazimone (KL1333) are being developed for large, underserved rare disease populations with significant unmet need, and are supported by a strong and growing body of biological and clinical evidence. We believe both programs offer substantial long‑term value‑creating potential for Pharming.”
  
2026 financial guidance:

  • Total revenues between US$405 million and US$425 million (8% to 13% growth), driven by significant and accelerating growth for Joenja® and continued growth for RUCONEST®
  • Total operating expenses between US$330 million and US$335 million, with the increase driven primarily by an increase in Research & Development expenses related to the ongoing leniolisib Phase II clinical trials and the napazimone (KL1333) pivotal clinical trial

Pipeline overview:

Leniolisib – primary immunodeficiencies with immune dysregulation
Pharming management will outline the scientific and clinical rationale supporting the expansion of leniolisib into broader patient populations with primary immunodeficiencies (PIDs) with immune dysregulation, beyond its currently approved indication. Two Phase II proof‑of‑concept clinical trials are ongoing — one in genetically defined PIDs linked to PI3K signaling and one in common variable immunodeficiency (CVID) with immune dysregulation — with top‑line data for both trials expected in the second half of 2026.

Leniolisib is an oral, selective phosphoinositide 3‑kinase delta (PI3Kδ) inhibitor that is currently approved and marketed as Joenja in the United States, and marketed and/or approved in additional countries, as the first and only targeted treatment for activated PI3Kδ syndrome (APDS)1, a rare and progressive primary immunodeficiency, for patients 12 years of age and older. APDS represents a genetically defined form within the broader CVID spectrum and serves as a clinically validated proof‑of‑concept for targeting PI3Kδ‑driven immune dysregulation, supporting the potential applicability of leniolisib across significantly broader PID and CVID patient populations.

Napazimone (KL1333)– mtDNA-driven mitochondrial disease
Pharming management will outline the scientific and clinical rationale for napazimone (KL1333), the newly named compound being developed for mtDNA-driven mitochondrial disease, which has the potential to become the first standard of care in this setting, if approved. The pivotal FALCON clinical trial is ongoing and remains on track for a readout in 2027.

Napazimone (KL1333) is an investigational therapy being developed for adult patients with primary mitochondrial disease caused by mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) mutations — a rare and debilitating condition characterized by impaired energy production, significant fatigue and muscle weakness (myopathy), and reduced life expectancy.

Clinical expert perspectives
The Investor Day will feature presentations from leading clinical experts, providing context on disease biology, unmet medical need, and the potential role of Pharming’s programs.
