Shares of Zevra Therapeutics (ZVRA) tumbled 5.76% in pre-market trading on Thursday following the release of the company's third-quarter 2025 financial results. Despite reporting a narrower loss than expected, the biopharmaceutical firm fell short of revenue estimates, disappointing investors.
Zevra reported quarterly revenue of $26.06 million, marking a substantial 605.4% increase from the same period last year. However, this figure missed the average analyst expectation of $26.63 million. The company's flagship product, MIPLYFFA, contributed significantly to the revenue growth, bringing in $22.4 million for the treatment of Niemann-Pick disease type C.
On a positive note, Zevra posted a narrower-than-expected loss of 1 cent per share, beating the consensus estimate of a 4-cent loss. The company's net loss for the quarter stood at $544,000, a considerable improvement from the previous year. Despite these mixed results, the pre-market stock plunge suggests investors are focusing more on the revenue miss and potential growth concerns. Additionally, Zevra announced it is scaling back sales efforts for OLPRUVA due to limited market access, which may be contributing to the negative sentiment.
