Management Commentary
- “With powerful new revenue streams on deck – including the Samsung biosimilars portfolio, BYQLOVI™, and the expansion of TRIESENCE into its largest potential market… we are poised to unlock additional operational leverage and deliver meaningful profitability.”
- “If you straight line Q2 growth for the balance of the year with a stable ASP, this puts us ahead of where we need to be by the end of this year for the VEVYE franchise.”
- “IHEEZO is on the path to have a record year this year, and I'm confident it will surpass our guidance of $50,000,000 or more in revenue.”
- “We are ready to move more aggressively into the ocular inflammation market… [TRIESENCE] should eventually deliver $100 million in annual revenue.”
Q&A Highlights
- VEVYE ASP trajectory: Business rules are largely set; Apollo Care expands covered scripts, implying ASP stability with potential sequential improvement into year-end .
- Biosimilars contribution: BYOOVIZ relaunch targeted in 2026; Harrow expects leverage from retina relationships and commercial infrastructure; upside viewed favorably by management .
- TRIESENCE ramp: Expect unit demand inflection in Q4 and into 2026; ocular inflammation entry with new leadership and broad coverage; near-term challenge but math viewed as achievable .

- Non-pharma solutions: Pipeline may include non-pharmaceutical initiatives, to be discussed at Investor & Analyst Day .

Key Takeaways for Investors
- VEVYE is scaling with stabilized ASP and strong refill dynamics; Apollo Care should lift covered script mix and support ASP improvement into Q4—consensus EPS likely to rise on this mix effect .
- IHEEZO’s retina adoption and coverage are strong; momentum suggests ≥$50M FY is achievable and potentially beatable if Q3 account starts sustain .
- TRIESENCE entry into ocular inflammation is a late-2025 swing factor; watch leadership execution and payer coverage to gauge 2026 revenue trajectory .
- H2 cadence: Management’s math implies ~$169M needed in H2; product momentum plus Apollo Care, distribution and coverage tailwinds support the ramp .
- Strategic optionality: Samsung biosimilars and BYQLOVI expand therapeutic scope with minimal incremental cost, adding medium-term earnings power (2026+) .
- Balance sheet: Active refinancing could be a catalyst to reduce interest burden and expand flexibility—monitor timing by late Q3/early Q4 .
- Risk checks: Watch execution in Other Branded portfolio, ASP stability durability, and litigation/regulatory updates (OSRX ruling) for any narrative shifts .
