Price Target:
$8.00
▲(0.38% Upside)
The score is held down primarily by weak financial performance (no revenue, widening losses, and significant cash burn) and bearish technical momentum (price below key moving averages with negative MACD). Offsetting factors include constructive recent corporate developments that extend funding runway and support near-term regulatory/pipeline catalysts, while valuation is difficult to assess given negative earnings and no dividend.
Positive Factors
Late-stage pipeline & FDA BLA acceptance
Regulatory acceptance and a set PDUFA date materially de-risks timing uncertainty and concentrates value creation into a discrete, near-term event. A favorable decision would convert clinical progress into a commercial opportunity and alter cash-flow dynamics across multiple quarters.
Improved financing & extended runway
Amendments that push amortization, enable immediate tranche draws, and unlock milestone-linked capital extend runway and lower near-term refinancing risk. This structural financing relief supports continued pivotal trials and commercial build while reducing likelihood of disruptive urgent capital raises.
Platform breadth & launch readiness
Clinical breadth, demonstrable administration into deep lesions, and an assembled commercial team signal scalable platform potential and operational preparedness. These structural assets increase the odds of market penetration and rapid uptake if regulatory approval is achieved.
Negative Factors
Zero revenue & large cash burn
Sustained zero product revenue coupled with very large, real cash burn creates persistent financing dependence. This structural deficit amplifies dilution risk, constrains strategic optionality, and makes ongoing R&D and commercial investment contingent on successful capital access or near-term regulatory wins.
Eroding equity and negative returns
A sharply reduced equity cushion and deeply negative returns indicate cumulative value destruction and weaker capacity to absorb trial setbacks. Structurally, this reduces financial flexibility, raises the probability of dilutive financing under adverse scenarios, and pressures long-term shareholder returns.
Concentration & regulatory/commercial execution risk
Heavy spending and program concentration mean a binary regulatory outcome or commercialization setback would have outsized financial impact. Elevated burn plus reliance on a small number of approvals increases existential risk and makes upside highly contingent on successful execution across regulatory and market fronts.

Replimune Group Business Overview & Revenue Model

Company DescriptionReplimune Group, Inc., a biotechnology company, develops oncolytic immuno-gene therapies to treat cancer. It uses its proprietary Immunotherapy platform to design and develop product candidates that are intended to activate the immune system against cancer. The company's lead product candidate is RP1, a selectively replicating version of herpes simplex virus 1, which is in Phase I/II clinical trials for a range of solid tumors; and that is in Phase II clinical trials for patients with cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma. It is also developing RP2, which is in Phase I clinical trials for an anti-CTLA-4 antibody-like protein in order to block the inhibition of the immune response otherwise caused by CTLA-4; and RP3 that is in Phase I clinical trials to express immune-activating proteins that stimulate T cells. Replimune Group, Inc. was founded in 2015 and is headquartered in Woburn, Massachusetts.
How the Company Makes MoneyReplimune Group generates revenue primarily through partnerships, collaborations, and licensing agreements with other pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies. These partnerships often involve upfront payments, milestone payments, and potential royalties based on the successful development and commercialization of their oncolytic immunotherapies. While Replimune is still in the clinical trial phase for many of its product candidates, such collaborations are crucial for funding ongoing research and development activities. Additionally, the company may also receive government grants or funding from cancer research organizations to support its innovative work in oncolytic virotherapy.

Replimune Group Financial Statement Overview

Summary
Financial performance is weak overall: reported revenue is $0 across periods, losses have widened materially (TTM net loss about -$314.9M), and cash burn is large and rising (TTM operating cash flow about -$277.9M; TTM free cash flow about -$283.3M). The balance sheet is a partial offset with modest leverage (debt-to-equity ~0.14 TTM), but equity has fallen sharply (~$210.5M TTM), increasing longer-term funding risk.
Income Statement
12
Very Negative
The income statement is weak: revenue is consistently $0 across the annual periods and TTM (Trailing-Twelve-Months), while losses have widened materially. Net loss deteriorated from about -$80.9M (FY2021) to -$247.3M (FY2025 annual) and further to -$314.9M in TTM (Trailing-Twelve-Months). Operating losses also expanded (EBIT from about -$82.8M in FY2021 to -$261.6M in FY2025 annual and -$326.5M TTM), indicating a higher cash burn profile as spending ramps. A positive is that low/zero revenue is common in biotech development stages, but profitability and visibility remain the clear near-term weak points in the provided data.
Balance Sheet
54
Neutral
The balance sheet is mixed but relatively supportive: leverage is modest with debt-to-equity around 0.18 in FY2025 annual and 0.14 in TTM (Trailing-Twelve-Months), which reduces near-term balance-sheet stress. However, equity has fallen sharply (from ~$555.3M in FY2023 to ~$415.8M in FY2025 annual and ~$210.5M in TTM), reflecting ongoing losses and weakening the capital cushion. Returns on equity are deeply negative (about -59% in FY2025 annual and roughly -83% in TTM), highlighting that the company is consuming shareholder capital rather than compounding it.
Cash Flow
18
Very Negative
Cash flow remains pressured with large, persistent cash outflows. Operating cash flow was negative in every period and worsened to about -$192.3M (FY2025 annual) and -$277.9M in TTM (Trailing-Twelve-Months), with free cash flow similarly negative at about -$198.9M (FY2025 annual) and -$283.3M (TTM). The relationship between free cash flow and net income is roughly 1.0x, suggesting losses are translating into real cash burn rather than being largely non-cash. While free cash flow growth shows an uptick in TTM, the absolute level of burn is still high and rising versus prior years.

Positive
Feb 3, 2026

On January 29, 2026, Replimune Group amended its loan and security agreement with Hercules Capital, extending a key revenue milestone to September 30, 2027, adjusting tranche sizes, and pushing the start of debt amortization from October 1, 2026 to October 1, 2027, while immediately drawing a $35 million third tranche and securing access to an additional $120 million tied to post-approval milestones. Reporting fiscal third-quarter 2026 results for the period ended December 31, 2025, the company highlighted FDA acceptance in October 2025 of its resubmitted BLA for lead therapy RP1 in anti-PD-1 failed advanced melanoma with an April 10, 2026 PDUFA date, ongoing Phase 3 and other late-stage trials for RP1 and RP2 across melanoma, non-melanoma skin cancers and liver-related cancers, and a cash position of $269.1 million that, together with the revised debt facility, is expected to fund operations and commercial launch preparations for RP1 into late first quarter 2027 despite rising R&D and SG&A expenses and a quarterly net loss of $70.9 million.

Jan 12, 2026

On January 12, 2026, Replimune released an updated corporate presentation highlighting recent strategic developments and clinical data for its RP1 and RP2 oncolytic immunotherapy programs ahead of its appearance at the J.P. Morgan Healthcare Conference on January 14, 2026.
