What Went Well and What Went Wrong
-
What Went Well
- Strong sequential growth: total revenue increased to $32.06M (Q3) from $26.43M (Q2) and $16.52M (Q1), driven by ANKTIVA uptake .
- Payer and access momentum: ANKTIVA selected as preferred drug for NMIBC CIS by a contracting org (~80M lives), and rBCG EAP enrollment nearly doubled in Q3; “Unit sales grew nearly 6X YTD compared with full-year 2024…” (CEO Richard Adcock) .
- Clinical updates underpinning broader opportunity: initiation of Phase 3 ResQ201A in CPI‑resistant NSCLC and encouraging GBM data (100% disease control in first five recurrent GBM patients) .
-
What Went Wrong
- Profitability remains a headwind: net loss of $67.25M in Q3, though improved YoY; net income margin remains deeply negative given early-stage commercial profile and financing costs .
- Rising financing burden: interest expense related to the revenue interest liability rose (Q3: $12.30M), and warrant/derivative/fair-value movements add earnings volatility .
- No formal numerical guidance was provided; ongoing regulatory uncertainty (e.g., NCCN papillary-only decision pending; FDA RTF history) can delay label expansion and market broadening -.

Q&A Highlights

Estimates Context
- S&P Global consensus data was unavailable via our estimates tool for Q1–Q3 2025; based on public aggregates, the company beat revenue ($32.06M vs $31.88M) and EPS (-$0.07 vs -$0.10) in Q3 2025 .
- Near-term estimate revisions may reflect stronger payer adoption (preferred drug selection) and cash build, partially offset by continued interest expense on revenue interest liability and ongoing R&D spend .
Key Takeaways for Investors
- Commercial traction is accelerating: sequential revenue growth across Q1→Q2→Q3 and payer designation as preferred therapy are key catalysts for share of care in NMIBC .
- Incremental clinical optionality: Phase 3 NSCLC (ResQ201A) enrollment and GBM signals support a broader ANKTIVA thesis beyond bladder, potentially expanding TAM over time -.
- Liquidity improved sharply: $257.8M cash/securities offers runway, but revenue interest liability and fair‑value/warrant dynamics keep earnings volatile; monitor financing cadence and liability amortization .
- Regulatory path for papillary-only NMIBC remains a swing factor: NCCN decision pending; FDA RTF history implies need for robust RCT evidence—timelines and outcomes will influence label expansion and adoption - .
- Short-term trading: modest beat vs. public consensus and payer wins could support near-term sentiment; watch for NCCN update and any ex‑U.S. go‑to‑market steps post‑MHRA - .
- Medium-term thesis: execution on Phase 3 NSCLC, continued ANKTIVA adoption, and payer coverage breadth vs. ongoing financing/interest burdens will drive valuation and risk/reward .
