Alnylam Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ:ALNY – Get Free Report) issued its quarterly earnings data on Thursday. The biopharmaceutical company reported $16.26 earnings per share for the quarter, topping analysts’ consensus estimates of $1.66 by $14.60, FiscalAI reports. The business had revenue of $1.46 billion during the quarter, compared to the consensus estimate of $1.43 billion. Alnylam Pharmaceuticals had a net margin of 52.85% and a return on equity of 246.94%. The company’s revenue was up 16.7% compared to the same quarter last year. During the same quarter in the prior year, the firm posted $2.90 earnings per share.
Here are the key takeaways from Alnylam Pharmaceuticals’ conference call:
- Q3 product revenue rose 52% year over year to approximately $1.3 billion, driven by AMVUTTRA and 59% growth in TTR revenue to $1.15 billion. Alnylam also ended the quarter with $3.6 billion in cash and marketable securities.
- Management expects 2026 TTR revenue at the low end of its $4.2 billion–$4.5 billion range, acknowledging that expanded commercial efforts have not yet translated into demand growth as quickly as anticipated. Potential fourth-quarter ordering volatility from the 340B rule and tighter UnitedHealth Medicare Advantage access may add pressure.
- Alnylam will expand the TRITON-CM study for nucresiran by 500 patients to approximately 2,250, primarily to account for potentially lower event rates as patients are diagnosed earlier and receive better background treatment. The company said the change is intended to improve statistical power and does not alter the expected ATTR cardiomyopathy launch timing of around 2030.
- Early brezosiran data in Huntington’s disease showed 60%–64% mean reductions in cerebrospinal-fluid mutant huntingtin, with reductions of up to 83% and no dose-dependent safety signals reported to date. Alnylam plans to advance the program toward a pivotal study in 2027, pending regulatory alignment.
