Royalty Pharma plc (RPRX) shares are soaring 5.02% in pre-market trading on Wednesday following the company's impressive third-quarter 2025 financial results and an upward revision of its full-year guidance. The biopharmaceutical company, which acquires royalties on marketed and late-stage biopharmaceutical products, has outperformed analysts' expectations, showcasing robust growth across key metrics.
The company reported adjusted earnings of $1.17 per share for the quarter ended September 30, significantly surpassing the mean expectation of $1.04 from seven analysts. This represents a substantial increase from the $1.01 per share reported in the same quarter last year. Revenue also saw a remarkable 44.1% year-over-year jump to $814 million, comfortably beating the analysts' forecast of $739.26 million. Royalty Pharma's Portfolio Receipts, a key performance indicator, grew by 11% compared to the previous year, reaching $814 million.
Adding to the positive sentiment, Royalty Pharma has raised its full-year 2025 guidance. The company now expects Portfolio Receipts to be in the range of $3,200 million to $3,250 million, projecting a growth of 14% to 16% for the year. This optimistic outlook is driven by the strong performance of key products in its portfolio, including Voranigo, Tremfya, and the cystic fibrosis franchise. The company's successful capital deployment strategy, which included acquisitions such as Imdelltra and Amvuttra, has also contributed to its robust financial position. With these developments, Royalty Pharma continues to strengthen its position in the biopharmaceutical royalties market, attracting investor attention and driving the stock's upward movement.
