Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Day One Biopharmaceuticals highlighted strong growth for its brain cancer drug OJEMDA and key 2026 milestones. The company updated its corporate materials after partner Ipsen received a positive European CHMP opinion recommending conditional marketing authorization of tovorafenib for relapsed or refractory BRAF‑altered pediatric low‑grade glioma.

OJEMDA 2025 net product revenue rose to $155.4M, up sharply from $57.2M in 2024, with total 2025 revenue of $158.2M. Net loss was $107.3M and cash, cash equivalents and short‑term investments were $441.1M as of December 31, 2025.

For 2026, the company guides to OJEMDA U.S. net product revenue of $225M–$250M, implying more than 50% growth. The pipeline update emphasizes the FIREFLY‑2 phase 3 trial in front‑line pediatric low‑grade glioma, phase 1 data for antibody‑drug conjugate Emi‑Le in adenoid cystic carcinoma by mid‑2026, and first‑in‑human progress for PTK7‑targeted ADC DAY301.

Positive

  • Rapid OJEMDA growth and bullish 2026 guidance: OJEMDA net product revenue rose to $155.4M in 2025 from $57.2M in 2024, and 2026 U.S. guidance of $225M–$250M implies >50% additional growth, materially strengthening the commercial outlook.
  • Regulatory momentum in Europe: Ipsen received a positive CHMP opinion recommending conditional marketing authorization of tovorafenib for relapsed or refractory BRAF‑altered pediatric low‑grade glioma, opening a path to broader international use.
  • Solid liquidity to fund strategy: Cash, cash equivalents and short‑term investments of $441.1M as of December 31, 2025 support ongoing commercialization and multiple late‑ and early‑stage development programs.

Negative

  • None.

Insights

OJEMDA growth, EU progress and a strong cash position support Day One’s 2026 plan.

Day One Biopharmaceuticals shows rapid commercial ramp for OJEMDA, with 2025 net product revenue of $155.4M versus $57.2M in 2024 and prescriptions rising sharply. Guidance for 2026 U.S. OJEMDA revenue of $225M–$250M signals management’s expectation of continued uptake in relapsed or refractory pediatric low‑grade glioma.

The positive CHMP opinion for tovorafenib, held ex‑U.S. by partner Ipsen, points to potential European conditional approval, which could expand the global patient base. Meanwhile, cash, cash equivalents and short‑term investments of $441.1M as of December 31, 2025 provide runway to fund commercialization and pipeline work.

Pipeline catalysts include completion of FIREFLY‑2 enrollment in front‑line pediatric low‑grade glioma in 1H 2026, mid‑2026 phase 1 data for B7‑H4‑targeted ADC Emi‑Le in adenoid cystic carcinoma, and phase 1a data for PTK7‑targeted ADC DAY301 in 2H 2026. Actual impact will depend on clinical outcomes, regulatory decisions and real‑world OJEMDA adoption.

As previously announced, in July 2024, the Company entered into an exclusive license agreement with Ipsen to commercialize OJEMDA outside of the United States.

A copy of the updated corporate presentation is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.

Pediatric low-grade glioma: The most common type of brain tumor in children A serious and life-threatening disease • For the majority of patients with pLGG in the relapsed setting, there is no standard of care, and until recently, no approved therapies pLGGs are chronic and • Up to 75% of pLGGs have a BRAF alteration*, of those relentless, with patients ~80% are BRAF fusions and ~20% are BRAF V600 suffering profound tumor and 2-6 mutations treatment-associated morbidity that can impact their life • Despite surgery playing a significant role in treatment, 1 the vast majority of patients still require systemic trajectory over the long term 7,8 therapy • Due to high rate of disease recurrence, most patients will undergo multiple lines of systemic therapy over the course of their disease 1 2 *Incidence of BRAF alterations varies across pLGG subtypes.

FAQ

What regulatory update did Day One Biopharmaceuticals (DAWN) disclose about OJEMDA/tovorafenib in Europe?

Ipsen received a positive CHMP opinion recommending conditional marketing authorization of tovorafenib monotherapy for children with relapsed or refractory BRAF‑altered pediatric low‑grade glioma. This opinion supports potential European approval and complements Day One’s existing U.S. approval for OJEMDA in relapsed or refractory pLGG.

How did Day One Biopharmaceuticals OJEMDA revenue perform in 2025?

OJEMDA 2025 net product revenue reached $155.4 million, up from $57.2 million in 2024. Total 2025 revenue was $158.2 million, reflecting the companys transition toward a product-driven commercial model centered on OJEMDA in pediatric low-grade glioma.

What 2026 OJEMDA revenue guidance did Day One Biopharmaceuticals (DAWN) provide?

Day One expects 2026 U.S. OJEMDA net product revenue of $225 million to $250 million. At the midpoint, this represents more than 50% growth over 2025 OJEMDA revenue of $155.4 million, assuming continued prescription expansion and strong persistency in treated pediatric low-grade glioma patients.

What is Day One Biopharmaceuticals cash position at year-end 2025?

Cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments totaled $441.1 million as of December 31, 2025. This unaudited balance gives the company significant financial flexibility to support OJEMDA commercialization, the FIREFLY-2 phase 3 trial, and early development of Emi-Le and DAY301.

Which key clinical milestones are upcoming for Day One Biopharmaceuticals (DAWN) in 2026?

Planned milestones include completing FIREFLY-2 enrollment in front-line pediatric low-grade glioma in first-half 2026, mid-2026 phase 1 data for B7-H4–targeted ADC Emi-Le in adenoid cystic carcinoma, and second-half 2026 phase 1a data for PTK7-targeted ADC DAY301 in solid tumors.

What were Day One Biopharmaceuticals 2025 earnings and non-operating results?

For 2025, Day One reported a net loss of $107.3 million, with total revenue of $158.2 million and total costs and operating expenses of $285.9 million. Non-operating income contributed $18.5 million, partly offsetting operating losses during the companys investment phase.
