The primary engine behind the quarter was the cabozantinib franchise, where U.S. Net product revenues climbed to $542.93 million from $478.06 million a year earlier on higher sales volume, with CABOMETYX alone contributing $539.90 million. GAAP net income rose to $193.58 million, or $0.69 per diluted share, aided in part by a $51.67 million non-cash impairment charge that weighed on the prior-year comparison. Looking ahead, Exelixis narrowed its full-year 2025 revenue guidance to $2.30 billion to $2.35 billion and reduced its R&D expense outlook to $850 million to $900 million, while also flagging plans to submit its first NDA for zanzalintinib before year-end, pending FDA availability amid the federal government shutdown.

Key Takeaways

  • Sustained growth in CABOMETYX prescriptions for renal cell carcinoma and neuroendocrine tumors
  • Increased sales volume driving U.S. net product revenue growth
  • 2.8% wholesale acquisition cost increase for CABOMETYX effective January 1, 2025
  • Higher royalty revenues from Ipsen's ex-U.S. cabozantinib sales
  • Lower R&D expenses due to decreased clinical trial costs and licensing costs
  • Share repurchases reducing diluted shares outstanding from 291.5 million to 278.5 million year-over-year

“In the third quarter of 2025, Exelixis gained momentum in the cabozantinib franchise and delivered on critical strategic priorities across the research & development portfolio. The cabozantinib franchise continued to outperform with sustained growth in renal cell carcinoma and neuroendocrine tumors, where CABOMETYX built on its position as the leading oral therapy for new patient market share in second-line and later settings.”
