NEW YORK, Sept. 11, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Royalty Pharma plc (Nasdaq: RPRX) will host an Investor Day in New York City today. Senior executives will provide an update on the company’s plans to drive shareholder value creation through its unique business model and capabilities in the large and growing market for funding biopharma innovation with royalties.
“Royalty Pharma continues to strengthen its position as the pioneer and leader in the biopharma royalty market,” said Pablo Legorreta, Royalty Pharma’s founder and Chief Executive Officer. “Royalties are a powerful funding tool in biopharma, fueling robust secular growth in our industry. In this favorable environment, we have delivered double-digit top-line growth, strong mid-teens returns and expanded our scale and capabilities to capture the significant opportunities ahead. Over the next five years, we expect continued strong growth as we fund life sciences innovation, with a clear path to substantial shareholder value creation through disciplined capital allocation. Given our attractive outlook—and the completion of the Manager internalization—we target at least a mid-teens average annual total shareholder return through 2030, with significant upside potential as the market increasingly recognizes our industry-leading investment platform.”
Strong execution and confidence in long-term targets
Royalty Pharma has delivered on its strategic and financial priorities since its 2020 IPO and its inaugural Investor Day in 2022. Based on its full year 2025 guidance, the company expects to deliver a top-line compound annual growth rate over the 2020 to 2025 period of approximately
The company is also on track to meet or exceed its five-year Capital Deployment target (from January 1, 2022) of
Royalty Pharma expects to achieve an unlevered IRR on its post-IPO investments in the mid-teens. These return figures do not take into account the benefit of leverage. Since 2020, returns on approved products have trended to the low double-digit range, at the high end of the company’s stated target, while returns on development-stage products have continued to be in the teens. Royalty Pharma expects to sustain attractive returns well above its cost of capital.
Royalty Pharma is also reporting for the first time its historical performance on two additional financial measures – Return on Invested Capital (ROIC) and Return on Invested Equity (ROIE). These measures reflect the cash generated by the business relative to the active capital invested and complement unlevered IRRs on investments. Based on the company’s financial performance since 2019, Royalty Pharma has achieved an ROIC of approximately
Rapid growth in royalties supported by growing recognition of benefits and large opportunity set
In the five years from 2020 to 2024, the biopharma royalty market has averaged
During its Investor Day, Royalty Pharma will share the findings of a royalty funding market study conducted by Deloitte which supports continued strong growth in the market. For example, the Deloitte market study report found that of the biopharma executives surveyed,
Royalty Pharma has scaled its business to match the significant royalty opportunity ahead, increasing its headcount approximately three-fold since IPO and adding powerful new capabilities, notably in data and analytics, to strengthen its diligence process and add value to its partners’ development and launch strategies.
Clear path to drive substantial shareholder value creation
Royalty Pharma’s goal is to be the premier capital allocator in life sciences with consistent, compounding growth. The company is confident in its ability to build on its competitive moats and to fund biopharma innovation at scale. Alongside its growth goals, the company may also pursue share buybacks in line with its dynamic capital allocation framework, complementing its commitment to grow its dividend by a mid-single digit percentage annually.
As a result, Royalty Pharma expects to deliver at least a mid-teens average total shareholder return (TSR) over the period from 2025-2030, driven by double-digit growth in Portfolio Cash Flow and its growing dividend. Furthermore, Royalty Pharma sees the potential for significant upside beyond a mid-teens total shareholder return as the value of its unique intellectual capital and investment platform are recognized following the completion of the Manager internalization.
Further Details on Investor Day
Royalty Pharma will host an Investor Day in New York City, beginning at 8:30 a.m. ET today. The event is expected to conclude at approximately 12:15 p.m. ET and will include live question and answer sessions.

Portfolio Receipts
Portfolio Receipts is a key performance metric that represents Royalty Pharma’s ability to generate cash from Royalty Pharma’s portfolio investments, the primary source of capital that is deployed to make new portfolio investments. Portfolio Receipts is defined as the sum of Royalty Receipts and Milestones and other contractual receipts. Royalty Receipts includes variable payments based on sales of products, net of contractual payments to the legacy non-controlling interests, that are attributed to Royalty Pharma.
Milestones and other contractual receipts include sales-based or regulatory milestone payments and other fixed contractual receipts, net of contractual payments to legacy non-controlling interests, that are attributed to Royalty Pharma. Portfolio Receipts does not include royalty receipts and milestones and other contractual receipts that were received on an accelerated basis under the terms of the agreement governing the receipt or payment. Portfolio Receipts also does not include proceeds from equity securities or proceeds from purchases and sales of marketable securities, both of which are not central to Royalty Pharma’s fundamental business strategy.
Portfolio Receipts is calculated as the sum of the following line items from Royalty Pharma’s GAAP condensed consolidated statements of cash flows: Cash collections from financial royalty assets, Cash collections from intangible royalty assets, Other royalty cash collections, Proceeds from available for sale debt securities and Distributions from equity method investees less Distributions to legacy non-controlling interests - Portfolio Receipts, which represent contractual distributions of Royalty Receipts, milestones and other contractual receipts to the Legacy Investors Partnerships.
Use of Non-GAAP Measures
Adjusted EBITDA, ROIC Adjusted EBITDA, Portfolio Cash Flow and ROIE Portfolio Cash Flow are non-GAAP liquidity measures that exclude the impact of certain items and therefore have not been calculated in accordance with GAAP. Management believes that Adjusted EBITDA and Portfolio Cash Flow are important non-GAAP measures used to analyze liquidity because they are key components of certain material covenants contained within Royalty Pharma’s credit agreement. Royalty Pharma cautions readers that amounts presented in accordance with the definitions of Adjusted EBITDA, ROIC Adjusted EBITDA, Portfolio Cash Flow and ROIE Portfolio Cash Flow may not be the same as similar measures used by other companies or analysts. These non-GAAP liquidity measures have limitations as analytical tools, and you should not consider them in isolation or as a substitute for the analysis of Royalty Pharma’s results as reported under GAAP.
The definitions of Adjusted EBITDA and Portfolio Cash Flow used by Royalty Pharma are the same as the definitions in the credit agreement. Noncompliance with the interest coverages/interest-coverage-ratio-definition-formula-calculator" title="Read: Interest Coverage Ratio: Definition, Formula & Calculator" class="article-link" rel="noopener">interest coverage ratio, leverage ratio and Portfolio Cash Flow ratio covenants under the credit agreement could result in lenders requiring the company to immediately repay all amounts borrowed. If Royalty Pharma cannot satisfy these covenants, it would be prohibited under the credit agreement from engaging in certain activities, such as incurring additional indebtedness, paying dividends, making certain payments, and acquiring and disposing of assets. Consequently, Adjusted EBITDA and Portfolio Cash Flow are critical to the assessment of Royalty Pharma’s liquidity.
Adjusted EBITDA, ROIC Adjusted EBITDA, Portfolio Cash Flow and ROIE Portfolio Cash Flow are used by management as key liquidity measures in the evaluation of the company’s ability to generate cash from operations. Management uses adjusted EBITDA, ROIC Adjusted EBITDA, Portfolio Cash Flow and ROIE Portfolio Cash Flow when considering available cash, including for decision-making purposes related to funding of acquisitions, debt repayments, dividends and other discretionary investments. Further, these non-GAAP liquidity measures help management, the audit committee and investors evaluate the company’s ability to generate liquidity from operating activities.
The company has provided reconciliations of these non-GAAP liquidity measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, being net cash provided by operating activities in the Current Reports on Form 8-K dated February 11, 2025 and dated August 6, 2025, which are available on the Company’s website, and in Tables 1 and 2.

The Company is not able to forecast on a GAAP basis with reasonable certainty all adjustments needed in order to project net cash provided by operating activities on a GAAP basis at this time. Royalty Pharma’s long-term targets are based on its most up-to-date view of its prospects as of September 11, 2025. Royalty Pharma assumes no major unforeseen adverse events subsequent to the date of this press release. Growth outlook includes future royalty acquisitions. Furthermore, Royalty Pharma may amend its long-term targets in the event it engages in new royalty transactions. |
