Key Financial Metrics

Material Changes vs. Prior Period

• Revenue Decline (Q3): Total revenues decreased 15% year-over-year in Q3 2025. Product net revenues fell 14% to $370.0 million, driven primarily by a 27% drop in ELEVIDYS sales ($131.5 million vs. $181.0 million) following the suspension of shipments to non-ambulatory patients in June 2025 and a temporary hold on all U.S. shipments in July 2025.
• Revenue Growth (9M): Despite the Q3 decline, nine-month revenues increased 41% to $1.76 billion, fueled by a 178% surge in collaboration and other revenues ($260.6 million) due to Roche option expirations and milestones.
• Restructuring Charge: The company recorded a one-time restructuring charge of $40.5 million in Q3 2025, related to a 36% workforce reduction and program suspensions to align costs with strategic priorities.
• Debt Extinguishment Loss: A significant non-cash loss of $138.6 million was recognized due to the partial refinancing of 2027 Convertible Notes into 2030 Notes, cash, and common stock.
• Arrowhead Collaboration: The company incurred $583.6 million in acquired in-process research and development (IPR&D) expenses related to its exclusive global license agreement with Arrowhead Pharmaceuticals, effective February 2025.

Guidance, Outlook, and Risks

• ELEVIDYS Regulatory Status: The company is in ongoing discussions with the FDA regarding a labeling supplement for ELEVIDYS, including a boxed warning for acute liver injury/failure and the removal of the non-ambulatory population from the indication. Shipments to ambulatory patients resumed in late July 2025, but the suspension for non-ambulatory patients remains.
• ESSENCE Trial Results: On November 3, 2025, the company announced that the ESSENCE confirmatory trial for PMO products (VYONDYS 53 and AMONDYS 45) did not meet its primary endpoint for statistical significance. This poses a risk to the continued accelerated approval of these products and may lead to regulatory actions or market withdrawal.
• Liquidity: Management believes current cash, cash equivalents, and investments ($865.2 million including restricted cash) are sufficient to fund operations for at least the next 12 months. The company has a $600 million undrawn revolving credit facility.
• Legal Proceedings: The company faces ongoing patent litigation (e.g., Regenxbio, Genzyme) and a securities class action lawsuit filed in June 2025 regarding disclosures related to ELEVIDYS safety and financial projections.

Investor Verification Checklist

• ELEVIDYS Labeling: Verify the final FDA decision on the boxed warning and the specific timeline for resuming shipments to non-ambulatory patients.
• ESSENCE Trial Impact: Assess the potential financial impact of the failed ESSENCE trial on PMO product revenues and the likelihood of FDA withdrawal of accelerated approvals for VYONDYS 53 and AMONDYS 45.
• Debt Structure: Review the terms of the new 2030 Convertible Notes (4.875% interest) and the remaining 2027 Notes to understand future interest obligations and conversion risks.
• Arrowhead Milestones: Monitor the achievement of the remaining $200 million in Arrowhead DM1 milestones and the associated cash/stock payment obligations.
• Inventory Valuation: Evaluate the recoverability of ELEVIDYS inventory given the suspension of sales to non-ambulatory patients and the potential for future write-downs.
