FRAMINGHAM, Mass. & SALISBURY, England--(BUSINESS WIRE)--March 25, 2026--
KalVista Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Nasdaq: KALV), today reported financial results for the eight months ended December 31, 2025, and provided a corporate update. As previously announced, the Company changed its fiscal year from ending April 30 of each year to ending December 31 of each year. There was an eight-month transition period from May 1, 2025 to December 31, 2025 and these results are presented within the condensed consolidated financial statements.
"As we enter the next phase of the EKTERLY launch, we are seeing the benefits of disciplined execution and increasing real-world experience with the first and only oral on-demand therapy for HAE," said Ben Palleiko, CEO of KalVista. "The trend towards high adoption continues, as evidenced by steady underlying demand and increasing utilization from patients seeking the benefits of an oral on-demand option. Internationally, EKTERLY's early performance in Germany, the recent launch in Japan by our partner Kaken Pharmaceutical and our plans to initiate additional market expansions in 2026, reinforce our confidence in the appeal across global markets. We remain focused on expanding access to EKTERLY worldwide while advancing our pediatric filing in patients aged 2--11 later this year. Together, we believe these efforts position EKTERLY to become the foundational therapy for people living with HAE."
EKTERLY(R) (sebetralstat) Commercial Progress
-- Initiated the US commercial launch of EKTERLY on July 7, 2025, with
$49.1 million global net product revenue through December 31, 2025.
-- Recorded 1,702 patient start forms, representing almost 20% of the US
patient population, and activated 724 unique prescribers in the US
through February 28, 2026.
-- In the fourth quarter of 2025, the majority of revenue was due to
patients receiving refills of EKTERLY.
-- German launch is exhibiting similar characteristics to the US launch as
adoption, utilization, and growth continue to build.
-- EKTERLY has launched in Japan through the Company's partner, Kaken
Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd., and has been listed on the National Health
Insurance $(NHI)$ drug reimbursement price list. EKTERLY is the first and
only oral on-demand therapy available in Japan.
Clinical and Regulatory Progress
-- Completed enrollment in the Phase 3 KONFIDENT-KID trial of sebetralstat
in pediatric HAE patients aged 2 to 11 years a full year ahead of
schedule. New interim analysis data to be presented as a late-breaking
oral presentation at the 2026 Global Angioedema Leadership Conference
taking place in Madrid, Spain from March 26--29, 2026. KalVista expects
to file a US new drug application in the third quarter of 2026 with a
launch anticipated in 2027.
-- Announced recommendation of EKTERLY as a first-line therapy for
adolescents 12 and older in the International Pediatric HAE Guideline,
which emphasizes ensuring on-demand treatment is available anytime,
anywhere, and prioritizing early self-administration.
-- Presented new sebetralstat clinical data at the 2026 American Academy
of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology (AAAAI) Annual Meeting and the Western
Society of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology (WSAAI) 63rd Annual Scientific
Session, demonstrating high patient satisfaction, sustained effectiveness
with repeat use and the importance of early treatment as the strongest
predictor of symptom relief.
Transition Period Financial Results
-- Recognized $49.1 million in net product revenue for the eight months
ended December 31, 2025.
-- Cost of revenue was $3.1 million for the eight months ended December
31, 2025.
-- Research and development expenses were $33.4 million and $52.2 million
in the eight months ended December 31, 2025, and 2024, respectively. The
decrease in R&D was primarily attributable to reduced clinical trial
expenses and recognizing expenses associated with EKTERLY pre-commercial
awareness within selling, general and administrative expenses.
-- Selling, general and administrative expenses were $124.7 million and
$64.9 million in the eight months ended December 31, 2025, and 2024,
respectively. The increase in SG&A was primarily attributable to
commercialization expenses related to EKTERLY.
-- As of December 31, 2025, the Company had cash, cash equivalents and
marketable securities of approximately $300.2 million. We anticipate that
cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities as of December 31, 2025,
along with projected revenues associated with the sale of EKTERLY will
fund the Company through profitability.
