Marc Frahm has given his Hold rating due to a combination of factors related to Theravance Biopharma’s current financial performance and future prospects. The company reported a slight decline in Q1 Yupelri collaboration revenue compared to consensus expectations, resulting in a net loss. Despite this, Yupelri showed an 8% growth driven by customer demand and favorable formulary status, particularly in the high-margin hospital channel.
Additionally, while the Trelegy product line is on track to achieve significant milestone payments through 2026, the overall growth of the Yupelri franchise lags behind the strong performance in the hospital market. The management’s efforts to enhance demand generation and refine sales strategies are noted, but the seasonal rebound in Q2 demand is still anticipated. These mixed signals in financial performance and strategic execution contribute to the Hold rating, as the potential for growth is balanced by current challenges.
