About Alkermes

Alkermes plc is a global biopharmaceutical company focused on neuroscience. It sells proprietary commercial products for alcohol and opioid dependence (VIVITROL), schizophrenia (ARISTADA and ARISTADA INITIO), schizophrenia and bipolar I disorder (LYBALVI), and narcolepsy (LUMRYZ). LUMRYZ is a once-nightly sodium oxybate added through the February 2026 acquisition of Avadel Pharmaceuticals. Alkermes also earns manufacturing and royalty revenue from partnered products. These include Biogen's VUMERITY and Johnson & Johnson's long-acting paliperidone franchise (XEPLION, INVEGA TRINZA/TREVICTA and INVEGA HAFYERA/BYANNLI). Its R&D centers on a portfolio of investigational orexin 2 receptor agonists. Target indications include narcolepsy, idiopathic hypersomnia, ADHD, major depressive disorder, and fatigue associated with multiple sclerosis and Parkinson's disease. The company runs R&D operations in Massachusetts and a manufacturing facility in Ohio, and it took on significant long-term debt to fund the Avadel acquisition. Updated

The earnings miss came from $29.8 million of Avadel deal costs, while revenue topped expectations and newly acquired LUMRYZ contributed in its first full quarter. Management reiterated full-year revenue guidance, with orexin data readouts queued up over the next year.
