CorMedix Shares Climb With Higher 1Q Profit, Sales

Dow Jones05-15

By Christopher Kuo

 

CorMedix shares rose after the company reported higher first-quarter profit and revenue.

Shares of the biopharmaceutical company rose 8.5% on Thursday to $8.14. The company's shares are still down more than 30% year to date.

The company on Thursday posted a first-quarter profit of $38.6 million, or 43 cents a share, compared with $20.6 million, or 30 cents a share, a year earlier. Analysts polled by FactSet expected 34 cents a share.

Revenue rose to $127.4 million from $39.1 million in the year-ago quarter. Analysts expected $105 million. The company's sales increased largely due to the onboarding of a large dialysis organization in mid 2025, the company said. Sales of DefenCath, the company's catheter lock solution, contributed $97.5 million in revenue in the quarter.

"DefenCath continues to exceed expectations despite pending TDAPA expiration and demonstrates strong underlying utilization demand," said Chief Executive Joseph Todisco. "In addition, we are advancing a pipeline of late-stage opportunities, including Rezzayo for prophylaxis, which we expect will meaningfully expand our long-term revenue opportunity."
