Price Target:
$7.00
▲(0.00% 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
Regulatory milestone: RP1 BLA accepted
FDA acceptance and a set PDUFA date materially de-risks a near-term regulatory readout and creates a credible path to first commercial revenue and market validation. A timely approval would shift the company from pure development funding needs toward commercialization planning and partner/market engagement opportunities.
Platform clinical evidence and depth
Extensive clinical experience and demonstrable activity in hard-to-treat sites (liver, lung) across multiple tumor types strengthen the platform’s competitive moat. Durable responses in checkpoint-resistant populations support differentiated positioning, broaden potential label opportunities, and increase partner and payer interest long term.
Extended funding runway via Hercules amendment
The Hercules amendment immediately supplies cash and ties further funding to post-approval milestones while deferring amortization, materially extending runway. This reduces near-term refinancing pressure, supports late-stage trial execution and commercial launch investment, and improves strategic optionality through 2027.
Negative Factors
No commercial revenue
Absence of product revenue means the company relies entirely on financing and milestones to fund operations. That structural dependence increases dilution and execution risk, making sustained R&D and commercialization investment contingent on external capital or a major approval/partnering event.
Eroding equity capital cushion
Sharp declines in shareholder equity reflect cumulative losses and weaken the balance sheet’s ability to absorb setbacks. A thinner capital cushion reduces flexibility to delay or expand programs, raises the odds of dilutive financing under stress, and limits credibility with potential long-term partners or acquirers.
Rising operating spend and quarterly losses
Increasing R&D and SG&A outlays alongside large quarterly losses materially raise cash burn and shorten runway absent approval or major funding. Sustained higher operating costs constrain strategic choices, may force program prioritization, and increase the probability of future capital raises or partnership trade-offs.

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.
