Ionis Pharmaceuticals reports Q1 EPS (56c), consensus (77c)

Reports Q1 revenue $246M, consensus $196.01M. “Ionis’ strong performance in the first quarter of 2026 underscores the strength of our commercial and R&D engines. Our independent launches are increasingly contributing to revenue, driven by strong commercial execution, and we are on track for two additional groundbreaking independent launches in 2026 – olezarsen for severe hypertriglyceridemia, our first medicine for a broad patient population, and zilganersen for Alexander disease, the first launch from our leading neurology pipeline,” said Brett P. Monia, Ph.D., chief executive officer of Ionis. “In addition, we look forward to multiple key value-driving events this year, including results from pivotal Phase 3 partnered programs. These include presentation of positive bepirovirsen data in chronic hepatitis B next month at EASL, as well as results from the landmark pelacarsen Lp(a) HORIZON and eplontersen CARDIO-TTRansform cardiovascular outcomes trials later this year.”
