Vaxcyte (Nasdaq: PCVX) boosts R&D, funds VAX-31 Phase 3 push

Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Vaxcyte, Inc. reported a larger net loss for 2025 while advancing its late-stage pneumococcal vaccine programs and strengthening its balance sheet. The company posted a 2025 net loss of $766.6 million, driven mainly by higher research and development spending of $794.3 million as it moved the VAX-31 adult and infant programs into Phase 3 and Phase 2, respectively, and expanded manufacturing readiness.

Cash, cash equivalents and investments were $2.44 billion as of December 31, 2025, not including approximately $600.2 million in net proceeds from a $632.5 million equity offering in February 2026. Vaxcyte highlighted three ongoing Phase 3 adult studies for VAX-31, completed enrollment of a 900-infant Phase 2 study, and plans to start a Phase 1 adult trial for its Group A Strep candidate VAX-A1 in 2026.

Insights

Biotech equity analyst

Vaxcyte is increasing cash-funded R&D investment as VAX-31 enters pivotal trials.

Vaxcyte is transitioning into a late-stage vaccine developer, with 2025 operating expenses climbing to $923.7 million as it runs multiple VAX-31 Phase 3 adult studies, a 900-infant Phase 2 trial, and builds commercial-scale manufacturing capacity with Lonza and a U.S. fill-finish line.

The company ended 2025 with $2.44 billion in cash, cash equivalents and investments and then raised gross proceeds of $632.5 million in a February 2026 equity offering at $50.00 per share. This supports a sizable net loss of $766.6 million in 2025 while funding an expanded pipeline that includes VAX-31, VAX-24, VAX-XL and VAX-A1.

Key value inflection points disclosed include topline OPUS-1 Phase 3 data in the fourth quarter of 2026 and OPUS-2/OPUS-3 and VAX-31 infant Phase 2 results in the first half of 2027. These readouts, along with completion of manufacturing buildouts, will shape how effectively current capital translates into potential future commercial opportunities.

SAN CARLOS, Calif., February 24, 2026 – Vaxcyte, Inc. (Nasdaq: PCVX), a clinical-stage vaccine innovation company, today announced financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2025, and provided a business update.

“In 2025, we made meaningful progress across clinical development, regulatory engagement and commercial manufacturing readiness as we advanced our broad-spectrum pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV) franchise,” said Grant Pickering, Chief Executive Officer and Co-Founder of Vaxcyte. “For the VAX-31 adult program, we initiated a comprehensive Phase 3 clinical program finalized in consultation and alignment with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to support a planned Biologics License Application (BLA) submission. Through this program, which is enrolling subjects in the OPUS-1, OPUS-2 and OPUS-3 trials, we are aiming to expand the breadth of disease and serotype coverage while ensuring immunogenicity levels remain high to support durable protection. Based on the strength of the unprecedented results from our VAX-31 Phase 1/2 study in adults and our carrier-sparing platform, we believe we are uniquely positioned to set a new standard by which future adult pneumococcal vaccines will be measured. In parallel, we completed enrollment in the VAX-31 infant Phase 2 dose-finding study, which includes higher doses than tested previously that are designed to elicit even stronger immune responses in

infants. Together, the growing body of data from both the adult and infant programs reinforces our conviction that VAX-31 has a potential best-in-class profile.”

“Earlier this year, we completed an equity financing that further strengthened our balance sheet and extended our cash runway,” said Andrew Guggenhime, President and Chief Financial Officer of Vaxcyte. "With $2.4 billion in cash, cash equivalents and investments at year-end, plus the approximately $600 million in net proceeds from the recent equity financing, we believe we are well positioned to execute on our planned clinical, manufacturing and commercial readiness milestones.”

Key 2025 and 2026 to Date Highlights

PCV Franchise Adult Indication:

Advanced Comprehensive VAX-31 Phase 3 Adult Clinical Program to Support Planned BLA Submission: The three ongoing VAX-31 Phase 3 clinical trials, finalized in consultation and alignment with the FDA, are intended to generate a broad and robust safety, tolerability and immunogenicity dataset. Across the ongoing trials, approximately 6,000 adults are expected to be enrolled in total, with approximately 3,400 participants expected to receive VAX-31. The Company is also planning a manufacturing consistency study (e.g., a lot-to-lot study) as the final Phase 3 study.

•Initiated OPUS-1, the Pivotal Phase 3 Noninferiority Trial: In December 2025, the Company dosed the first participants in the OPUS-1 trial evaluating VAX-31 for the prevention of invasive pneumococcal disease (IPD) and pneumonia in adults. This trial is evaluating the safety, tolerability and immune responses of VAX-31 in approximately 3,560 adults aged 50 and older through direct, head-to-head comparisons with both Capvaxive® (PCV21) and Prevnar 20® (PCV20), the current standard-of-care PCVs, with the objective of establishing a best-in-class profile for VAX-31. The trial is also evaluating the safety, tolerability and immune responses of VAX-31 in approximately 440 adults aged 18-49. OPUS-1 is being conducted at approximately 50 sites in the United States.

•Initiated OPUS-2 and OPUS-3 Phase 3 Trials in Key Adult Populations: In January 2026, the Company dosed the first participants in OPUS-2, a Phase 3 descriptive study designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability and immunogenicity of VAX-31 when administered concomitantly with, or one month following, a licensed, high-dose seasonal influenza vaccine in approximately 1,300 pneumococcal-naïve1 adults aged 50 years and older. OPUS-2 is being conducted at approximately 25 sites in the United States. In February 2026, the Company dosed the first participants in OPUS-3, a Phase 3 descriptive study evaluating the safety, tolerability and immunogenicity of a single dose of VAX-31 in approximately 720 adults aged 50 years and older who have previously received lower-valency pneumococcal vaccines. OPUS-3 is being conducted at approximately 30 sites in the United States.

Expanded VAX-31 Adult Breakthrough Therapy Designation to Include Prevention of Pneumonia: In May 2025, the FDA expanded the adult Breakthrough Therapy designation for VAX-31 to include the prevention of pneumonia caused by Streptococcus pneumoniae, in addition to the prevention of IPD, based on the positive topline results from the VAX-31 adult Phase 1/2 study.

1 Pneumococcal-naïve is defined as having no known prior history of IPD, pneumococcal pneumonia, or receipt of any licensed or investigational pneumococcal vaccine.

Introduced Development of VAX-XL, the Company’s Third-Generation PCV Designed to Further Expand Disease and Serotype Coverage: The Company continues to advance its broader PCV franchise with development of VAX-XL. This vaccine candidate is in early-stage development, and leverages the Company’s carrier-sparing, site-specific conjugation technology with the aim of further expanding coverage to deliver the broadest-spectrum candidate in the Company’s PCV franchise.

PCV Franchise Infant Indication:

Announced Positive VAX-24 Infant Phase 2 Study Results that Informed Advancement of Modified VAX-31 Infant Phase 2 Dose-Finding Study with Inclusion of Optimized Dose: Vaxcyte is advancing the clinical development of VAX-31 in infants through a randomized Phase 2 dose-finding study designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability and immunogenicity of VAX-31 compared to PCV20 in healthy infants. The study includes a three-dose primary immunization series administered at two, four and six months of age, followed by a booster dose at 12-15 months of age, and is intended to inform dose selection for future pediatric development. The final positive data from the VAX-24 infant Phase 2 dose-finding study further validated the Company’s rationale for exploring higher doses in the ongoing VAX-31 infant Phase 2 study.

•Announced Positive VAX-24 Infant Phase 2 Data: In March 2025, the Company announced positive interim data from the VAX-24 infant Phase 2 dose-finding study, and in November 2025 shared final safety, tolerability and immunogenicity results that were consistent with the interim findings. The totality of data from this study supported the Company’s strategy to evaluate higher doses in the ongoing VAX-31 infant Phase 2 program.

•Modified VAX-31 Phase 2 Study to Include Optimized Dose: In August 2025, the Company modified the ongoing VAX-31 infant Phase 2 study to include an Optimized Dose, with the majority of serotypes dosed at 4.4 mcg and the balance dosed at 3.3 mcg. Both the Middle Dose and High Dose arms continued as planned in the study, while the Low Dose arm was discontinued.

•Completed Enrollment in VAX-31 Infant Phase 2 Study: In January 2026, the Company announced the completion of enrollment in the VAX-31 infant Phase 2 dose-finding study, with 900 healthy infants dosed. With enrollment complete, all participants have received at least their first dose in the primary immunization series.

Early-Stage Pipeline:

Advancing VAX-A1, a Vaccine Candidate Designed to Prevent Disease Caused by Group A Strep, into the Clinic: In 2026, the Company plans to initiate a Phase 1 adult study for its most advanced preclinical program, VAX-A1, a prophylactic vaccine candidate designed to prevent disease caused by Group A Strep, with the primary objective of assessing safety and tolerability. This approach is designed to generate high-quality initial safety data and provide a foundation for evaluating next steps in the program's development.

Group A Strep remains a major global cause of morbidity and mortality in adults and children and is a leading driver of antibiotic use, underscoring the significant public health burden. The Company intends to conduct this study in Australia, where Group Strep A has been problematic and there are experienced investigator networks with a high degree of expertise in the field.

Commercial Manufacturing & Supply Chain:

Progressed Manufacturing and Supply Chain Capabilities to Support Commercial Launch: The Company continued to make progress on its manufacturing and supply chain capabilities. In collaboration with Lonza, Vaxcyte completed construction of a dedicated, large-scale manufacturing facility designed to support potential global commercial manufacturing of its PCV candidates throughout the developed world for all indications. In addition, the buildout of a high-volume, custom fill-finish line in North Carolina has been initiated as part of the Company's previously announced long-term commitment of up to $1 billion in U.S. manufacturing and services.

Equity Financing:

Completed Underwritten Public Offering, Further Strengthening Balance Sheet: In February 2026, Vaxcyte completed an underwritten public offering of 12,650,000 shares of its common stock, which included the full exercise of the underwriters’ option to purchase an additional 1,650,000 shares, at a public offering price of $50.00 per share. The aggregate gross proceeds to Vaxcyte from this offering were $632.5 million, before deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and other offering expenses payable by Vaxcyte.

Executive Leadership Team and Board of Directors Appointments:

Added Seasoned Leaders to Board of Directors and Executive Team: Vaxcyte continued to strengthen its Board of Directors and leadership team with highly regarded industry leaders to further support the advancement of its late-stage programs and preparations for potential commercialization.

•Dr. Olivier Brandicourt, Board of Directors: In May 2025, the Company appointed Dr. Olivier Brandicourt to its Board of Directors. Dr. Brandicourt is a veteran biopharmaceutical executive with extensive experience in global vaccine commercial strategy and execution, including prior service as Chief Executive Officer of Sanofi S.A. and Bayer HealthCare AG.

About Vaxcyte

Vaxcyte is a vaccine innovation company engineering high-fidelity vaccines to protect humankind from the consequences of bacterial diseases. VAX-31, a 31-valent PCV candidate being evaluated in a Phase 3 adult clinical program and in a Phase 2 infant clinical program, is being developed for the prevention of IPD and is the broadest-spectrum PCV candidate in the clinic today. VAX-24, a 24-valent PCV candidate, is designed to cover more serotypes than any infant PCV on-market. VAX-31 and VAX-24 are designed to improve upon standard-of-care PCVs by covering the serotypes in circulation that cause a significant portion of IPD and are associated with high case-fatality rates, antibiotic resistance and meningitis, while maintaining coverage of previously circulating strains. VAX-XL, in earlier-stage development, also leverages the Company’s carrier-sparing, site-specific conjugation technology with the aim of further expanding coverage to deliver the broadest-spectrum candidate in the Company’s PCV franchise.

Vaxcyte is re-engineering the way highly complex vaccines are made through XpressCF®, its cell-free protein synthesis platform exclusively licensed from Sutro Biopharma, Inc. Unlike conventional cell-based approaches, the Company’s system for producing difficult-to-make proteins and antigens is intended to accelerate its ability to develop high-fidelity vaccines with enhanced immunological benefits. Vaxcyte’s pipeline also includes VAX-A1, a prophylactic vaccine candidate designed to prevent Group A Strep infections, and VAX-GI, a vaccine candidate designed to prevent Shigella.
