Axsome: Q3 Earnings Snapshot – WTOP News
The healthcare group beat profit forecasts as higher sales and productivity gains offset recall costs, while it set aside €288 million for a DOJ settlement.
Axsome Therapeutics reported Q3 2026 revenue of $260 million, a 52% year-over-year increase. The company also narrowed its net loss to $12.9 million, down from $47.2 million in the prior-year period.
Advancing its 10-program neuroscience pipeline, Axsome expects top-line results for its ENGAGE Phase III trial in the first quarter of 2027. Meanwhile, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration is reviewing the AXS-12 narcolepsy NDA, with a decision expected by May 1, 2027.
AUVELITY and Sunosi sales reached $208 million and $48.2 million, respectively. The company activated 8,200 new AUVELITY prescribers this quarter, bringing the total to 77,000 with payer coverage reaching approximately 89% of lives.
Primary care providers now represent 40% of AUVELITY prescribers, indicating successful expansion beyond specialists. Management projects AUVELITY will generate at least $8 billion in peak annual revenue across its approved indications, reflecting the drug's substantial commercial ceiling.
In 2027, Axsome initiates the SUMMIT Phase III trial for AXS-05 in smoking cessation. The company maintains a disciplined path toward cash-flow positivity, supported by its current cash balance and ongoing clinical development work.
