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
