Briefing
Nektar Therapeutics reported Q2 2025 results with total revenue of $11.2 million and a net loss of $41.6 million.
Nektar Therapeutics posted total revenue of $11.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, driven primarily by non-cash royalty revenue. The company recorded an operating loss of $36.2 million and a net loss of $41.6 million, or $2.95 per share. Research and development expenses remained stable while general and administrative costs declined year-over-year.
- Total revenue declined 52% year-over-year to $11.2 million due to lower non-cash royalty revenue and the absence of product sales following the 2024 facility sale.
- Net loss improved to $41.6 million from $52.4 million in Q2 2024, aided by reduced restructuring and impairment charges.
- R&D expenses were $29.9 million, essentially flat versus the prior year, while G&A expenses decreased 17% to $17.1 million.
- The company maintained a cash and investments position of $175.9 million at quarter end and completed a $107.5 million equity offering in July 2025.
