Harmony Biosciences Q3 2025 Earnings Call - Strong Revenue Growth and Pipeline Advances with $1 Billion Wakix Milestone in Sight

Madison, Conference Operator: Good morning. My name is Madison, and I will be your conference operator today. At this time, I would like to welcome everyone to Harmony Biosciences Third Quarter twenty twenty five Financial Results Conference Call. I will now turn the call over to Matthew Beck. Please go ahead.

Matthew Beck, Investor Relations, Harmony Biosciences: Thank you, operator. Good morning, everyone, and thank you for joining us today as we review Harmony Biosciences’ third quarter twenty twenty five financial results and provide a business update. Before we start, I encourage everyone to go to the Investors section of our website to find the materials that accompany our discussion today, including the reconciliation of our GAAP to non GAAP financial measures. At this stage of our life cycle, we believe non GAAP financial results better represent the underlying business performance. Our speakers on today’s call are Doctor.

Jeffrey Dano, President and CEO Adam Zevsky, Chief Commercial Officer Doctor. Kumar Boudur, Chief Medical and Scientific Officer and Sandeep Kapadia, Chief Financial and Administrative Officer. As a reminder, we will be making forward looking statements today, which are based on our current expectations and beliefs. These statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties. Our actual results may differ materially, and we undertake no obligation to update these statements even if circumstances change.

We encourage you to consult the risk factors referenced in our SEC filings for additional details. I would now like to turn the call over to our CEO, Doctor. Jeffrey Dana. Jeff?

Jeffrey Dano, President and CEO, Harmony Biosciences: Thank you, Matt. Good morning, everyone, and thank you for joining our call today. I want to start off by saying how proud I am of the Harmony team and their exceptional performance this quarter. It reaffirms Harmony’s reputation for executional excellence. As we have shared, Q3 was a very strong quarter for Harmony.

We reported $239,500,000 in net revenue for the quarter representing 29% growth year on year. And with this momentum, we recently raised our net revenue guidance for the year from $820,000,000 to $860,000,000 taking it up to $845,000,000 to $865,000,000 We had robust cash generation of $106,000,000 bringing our balance sheet to $778,000,000 as of September 30. But what I am most proud of is that this performance was driven by the highest number of quarterly patient adds for WCAGX since our launch, with an average of 500 patients added this quarter, resulting in an average of 8,100 patients on WCAGX at the end of Q3. Our Chief Commercial Officer, Adam Zeski, will next be providing more color on some of the things his team is doing to drive this strong momentum in our WCAGICS business. There are many different ways to measure impact.

Delivering innovative treatments to patient populations living with unmet medical needs is a very meaningful one. With this sustained momentum, we believe WCAGX is rapidly approaching a $1,000,000,000 plus blockbuster status in narcolepsy alone. Along with our very strong commercial business, Harmony also has a robust late stage pipeline with multiple catalysts coming over the next several years. We continue to have firm conviction in our pipeline and full confidence in our R and D team to successfully execute on these programs. In fact, the IND for Pitolacin HD, our Pitolacin High Dose Formulation, has been submitted to FDA and we are on track to initiate two Phase III trials, one in narcolepsy and one in idiopathic hypersomnia, or IH, before the end of the year.

Kumar will provide an update on our pipeline programs later in the call, including an update on the ReConnect study in Fragile X syndrome. Turning to our balance sheet. With over $778,000,000 in cash and cash equivalents, a disciplined approach to capital deployment and a team with extensive industry experience, Harmony is well positioned to strategically pursue value enhancing assets to add to our pipeline and build a broader product portfolio. That is our intent and a key component of our vision to become the leading patient focused CNS company delivering innovative treatments that can help even more patients living with unmet medical needs. We believe that we have built something rare in our industry, a profitable, self funding biotech company with an innovative, catalyst rich pipeline poised to deliver meaningful value for both patients and our shareholders.

It is because of this unique profile that we continue to execute from a position of strength. And coming off of our exceptional Q3 performance, we believe that Harmony is one of the most compelling growth stories in biotech today. With that, I’ll turn the call over to Adam Zeske, our Chief Commercial Officer, for an update on our outstanding commercial performance. Adam?

Adam Zevsky, Chief Commercial Officer, Harmony Biosciences: Thank you, Jeff. Harmony’s Q3 twenty twenty five results were the strongest we’ve seen since launch. Wakix delivered $239,500,000 in net sales for the quarter, representing nearly 30% year over year growth in its sixth year on the market. WATICS achieved a record increase in approximately 500 average patients for the quarter. This represents the highest quarterly increase we’ve ever seen and comes after the Q2 increase of approximately 400 average patients, which has only been achieved twice previously.

As a result, WAPIX achieved approximately 8,100 average patients for Q3, exceeding our previous guidance of achieving nearly 8,000 patients by a full quarter. The foundation of WCAG’s performance has always been the unique position WCAG’s owns as the only nonscheduled treatment option, resulting in its broad clinical utility. WCAGIX enjoys extremely high brand awareness, is perceived as efficacious and well tolerated, and is supported by broad payer coverage that has remained consistent for years. In addition to this, I’d like to highlight some recent areas of focus. We have adjusted our field sales deployment, call plan, and messaging, and continue to deliver sound sales execution.

We’ve refined our promotion and messaging. We’ve secured important new payer coverage wins, which continue to expand our already broad payer coverage. And we have made improvements in how we support patients moving from a Wakix prescription to dispense, reflected in higher rates of conversion and shorter times to dispense. Much of what we are focused on are the fundamentals. From sales execution, marketing and promotion, payer coverage and patient support, the adjustments we are making are delivering results, and we will continue to look for additional opportunities in all areas moving forward.

As we look to the 2025, we expect continued growth in average number of patients and momentum. As a result, we recently raised our full year revenue guidance of $820,000,000 to $860,000,000 to the high end of the range between $845,000,000 and $865,000,000 And we are rapidly approaching achieving $1,000,000,000 plus in annual revenue from narcolepsy alone. Looking to the future, the Pitolescent GR and HD formulations each target significant unmet patient needs while extending our growth potential with utility patents filed through 2044. Early feedback from physicians and payers on the HD formulation has been particularly encouraging, and we will be able to leverage our commercial infrastructure to drive the next phase of growth through our ptolosin franchise formulations. In summary, the performance of our business has never looked better, fueled by a highly differentiated product, a focus on fundamentals and excellent execution across the organization.

We are confident in our continued growth and performance moving forward. And now I’d like to turn the call over to our Chief Medical and Scientific Officer, Kumar Badur, to discuss the advancements in our clinical development programs. Kumar?

Kumar Boudur, Chief Medical and Scientific Officer, Harmony Biosciences: Thank you, Adam. Good morning, everyone, and thank you for joining us today. We continue to make good progress in R and D with three phase three registrational studies ongoing and anticipate up to five phase three registration studies in five distinct indications by the end of the year. And we have some important updates to share on the next gen pitotosin program. Starting with our sleepwake franchise, we continue to make significant progress across our next gen pitotosyn program.

I’m pleased to report that we have submitted the IND for pitotosyn HD to the FDA. The pitorocent HD program and enhanced formulation with an optimized PK profile and higher dose targeting enhanced efficacy for excessive daytime sleepiness and pursuing a differentiated label with an indication for fatigue in narcolepsy is on track for phase three initiation in Q4 twenty twenty five. Similarly, the phase three study with pitocent HD in patients with idiopathic hypersomnia is also pursuing a differentiated label with an indication for sleep inertia, and we are on track for initiation in Q4 twenty twenty five. The target PDUFA dates for both programs are in 2028. The other next gen pitotosin formulation, pitotosin GR, is designed to minimize the potential for treatment related GI side effects, especially since almost ninety percent of patients with narcolepsy experience comorbid GI symptoms.

In addition, Futanosyn GR also provides an ability to start at the therapeutic dose range at seventeen point eight milligrams, eliminating the need for titration, an important differentiation. To demonstrate this, we conducted a dosing optimization study, which is now completed. We are excited to share that in this study, patients with narcolepsy started pitolosin GR at seventeen point eight milligram, and one hundred percent of the patients, that is all forty six of forty six patients, were able to initiate GR at the therapeutic dose of seventeen point eight milligram with no safety or tolerability issues. In addition, ninety eight percent of the patients who received pitolosin GR thirty five point six milligram at week two tolerated the higher dose well. No new AEs or SAEs were observed from this study.

Pitrolisin GR is a fast to market strategy designed to demonstrate bioequivalence to VEGIC’s formulation. The top line data from the pivotal BE study is on track for q four twenty twenty five with a target PDUFA in q one twenty twenty seven. Utility patents have been filed for both pitolocin GR and pitolocin HD with potential exclusivity to 2044, securing long term franchise value. Beyond pitavastatin, our sleep wake portfolio continues to advance with BP one point five two zero five, a highly potent orexin two receptor agonist demonstrating best in class potential in preclinical studies. At the recent sleep meeting in Seattle and World Sleep Congress meeting in Singapore, we presented comprehensive preclinical safety and efficacy data that demonstrated efficacy at very low doses across all parameters of interest in a standard transgenic mouse model.

We are on track to dose the first subject later this quarter and we anticipate sharing clinical data in 2026. In the neurobehavioral franchise, as we have already disclosed, the ZYN-two Phase III VCONNECT study in Drazanlig syndrome did not meet the primary endpoint of improvement in social avoidance, mainly due to higher than expected placebo response. This is disappointing for Harmony and for the frazal x syndrome community who continue to wait for approved therapies. The in-depth review of full dataset is ongoing, and we plan to share additional information in the near future. The ZYN002 program in ’22 q deletion syndrome has been paused pending the full review of the ReConnect data.

In our epilepsy franchise, we continue to actively enroll patients in two global phase three registrational trials with EPX one hundred, the ARG study in Dravet syndrome, and the Lighthouse study in Lennox Gastaut syndrome. EPX one hundred, or clamisole hydrochloride, is a five h t two serotonergic agonist and works via enhancing serotonergic tone and established mechanism of action for developmental and epileptic encephalopathies. In addition, it has a unique safety and tolerability profile, and the emerging safety profile is supportive of no requirements for additional laboratory or special safety monitoring compared to some of the drugs commonly used in these disorders. We will be presenting some of the efficacy data from the August open label extension study and the safety tolerability data on EPX100 at the upcoming American Epilepsy Society meeting in December. Finally, on behalf of Harmony, I would like to thank all the patients and their families who are participating in our clinical trials as well as the clinical investigators and site personnel for their efforts and commitment in helping us to advance our development program.

I’ll now turn the call over to our CFO, Sandeep Kapadia, for an update on our financial performance. Sandeep?

Sandeep Kapadia, Chief Financial and Administrative Officer, Harmony Biosciences: Thank you, Kumar, and good morning, everyone. This morning, we issued our third quarter twenty twenty five earnings release and filed our 10 Q, where you’ll find the details of our financial and operating results. We delivered strong financial results in the third quarter with our highest quarter to date in revenues and cash generation. Our financial performance and profile positions us well to continue advancing our growth strategy for the remainder of 2025 and beyond. We reported net revenues of $239,500,000 compared to $186,000,000 in the prior year quarter, representing a growth of 29% year over year.

The growth was driven by very strong demand for Wage WCAGIX, as demonstrated by our record increase in average number of patients, along with an increase in trade inventories of a few days as we head into the fourth quarter. We reported total operating expenses for the third quarter of $114,300,000 compared to $81,600,000 for the same quarter in 2024. The expenses during the 2025 included investments to advance our late stage pipeline, a $15,000,000 milestone for the completion of the enrollment of the CYN-two trial as well as continued commercialization of WATICS in narcolepsy. We also continue to show solid net income growth. Non GAAP adjusted net income for the 2025 was $63,500,000 or $1.8 per diluted share compared to $57,300,000 or $0.99 per diluted share in the prior year quarter.

We believe non GAAP adjusted net income better reflects the underlying business performance. Please see our press release for a reconciliation of GAAP to non GAAP results. As previously mentioned, Harmony ended the third quarter with approximately $778,000,000 in cash, cash equivalents and investments. The balance reflects strong cash generation, resulting in an increase of $106,000,000 in the third quarter. We continue to actively pursue value enhancing strategic opportunities to deploy our capital to expand our portfolio and drive value for shareholders.

Looking ahead in 2025, our strong performance through Q3 gives us increasing confidence in our full year outlook. We’ve recently raised our revenue guidance from $820,000,000 to $860,000,000 to $845,000,000 to $865,000,000 These results also gives us confidence that we are rapidly approaching blockbuster status for AWACIX and narcolepsy alone. With respect to expenses, we expect continued investment in R and D as we advance our late stage pipeline with the start of two phase three studies for our Pitolacin HD programs. As a result, we expect to have five ongoing Phase III registrational programs by the end of the year. In addition, we also expect a milestone of $4,000,000 initiation of our Phase I trial in our orexin-two agonist program.

In summary, we had very strong results for this quarter, along with positive momentum going into Q4. That, along with our strength of our balance sheet, puts us in a solid position to accelerate our growth strategy and drive value for shareholders. And with that, I’ll turn the call back over to Jeff for his closing remarks. Jeff?

Jeffrey Dano, President and CEO, Harmony Biosciences: Thank you, Sandeep. And my thanks to everyone for joining our call today and for your interest in Harmony Biosciences. In closing, I am very proud of our team’s exceptional performance in the third quarter and energized by our progress. Let me highlight a few key points to leave you with. First, we delivered a very strong quarter with 29% year on year revenue growth driven by a record number of an average of 500 new patient adds for the quarter.

With this sustained momentum, we believe Wakix is rapidly approaching a $1,000,000,000 plus blockbuster status in narcolepsy alone. Looking ahead, our late stage pipeline remains robust and I continue to have strong conviction in our pipeline programs which are making excellent progress. Lastly, we continue to strengthen our unique profile of being a profitable, self funding biotech company with an innovative catalyst rich pipeline poised to deliver meaningful value for patients, providers, and shareholders alike. We believe that this is what makes Harmony one of the most compelling growth stories in biotech today. Thank you.

And I will now turn the call back over to the operator for Q and A. Operator?

Madison, Conference Operator: Thank And we will take our first question from Amy Fadia with Needham. Please go ahead.

Amy Fadia, Analyst, Needham: Thanks on the strong third quarter. My first question is just around kind of your guidance. You’ve obviously raised your guidance. And even if we look at the year to date performance compared to the full year 2024, there’s certainly acceleration in the new patient adds this year. So if you could sort of elaborate on how you see the trajectory of VICIX evolving.

It’s certainly seven years into the launch, but it appears that there is acceleration here. So if you could comment on how you see that evolving into 2026 and if that can be sustained? And then I have one or two other questions. Thank you.

Jeffrey Dano, President and CEO, Harmony Biosciences: Okay. Good morning, Ami. Thank you for your question. I’m going to turn over to Adam to speak about in terms of the trajectory of patient adds and the strong fundamentals there. And then Sandeep can comment on kind of our thoughts and position on guidance.

Adam? Yes. Thanks, Jeff,

Adam Zevsky, Chief Commercial Officer, Harmony Biosciences: and good morning, Ami. Thanks for the question. So yes, performance is going to be driven fundamentally by patient adds. And as you saw, we’re extremely pleased with the quarterly increase in average patients of 500. We haven’t seen that high of an increase ever since launch.

And it comes on the back of a solid Q2 increase of 400 patients, which we had only seen twice previously in the last time we saw an increase of 400 patients was, I think, early in 2022. So we’re very pleased with the underlying performance of the brand and the fundamentals remain strong and that momentum we expect to carry forward into Q4. But Sandy, do you want to mention share on your thoughts on that?

Sandeep Kapadia, Chief Financial and Administrative Officer, Harmony Biosciences: Yes. No, absolutely. As mentioned on the call, mean we recently raised our guidance from $820,000,000 to $860,000,000 to $845,000,000 to $865,000,000 As reflected in the guidance, we saw really good strong demand as Adam just talked about. We did also see a slight increase in trade inventory during the quarter which obviously had an impact. As you may recall in Q2 it was the opposite.

We saw a bit of a drawdown. Again it’s typical wholesaler ordering patterns. The thing is it’s hard to predict these things as we go into Q4. But we feel very good about the top line demand growth because ultimately that’s what helps drive revenues at the end of the day. And so what we’re seeing, we’re very optimistic about top line growth in terms of patient adds as we go into the next quarter.

And with regard to revenues, it’s really just a question of where we end up with trade inventory sometimes. At year end, it’s hard to predict. So again, it’s going to be a very strong year, well ahead of our original guidance ahead of our guidance in terms of net patient adds to the year. We had originally guided to about 8,000 patients and we’re well ahead of that as well by year end. So really we’re going to see great momentum going into the end of the year on top line demand and certainly going into 2026.

And of course, we’re rapidly approaching blockbuster status for WCAG. Yes. I would

Jeffrey Dano, President and CEO, Harmony Biosciences: just add that I think obviously we’re very pleased with the recent trends and we’re following them in terms of how that will sustain us going into the future. But underlying fundamentals remain very strong, pleased with obviously some of the things Adam has done with the commercial team and that positions us well going forward.

Amy Fadia, Analyst, Needham: Great. Thank you. And my next question was just for Kumar. So with regards to the GR formulation, can you give us some color on what were the GI AEs seen with the GR formulation? How did the grade or frequency of those AEs compared to the in market, you know, sort of titration in the initial dosing period?

Kumar Boudur, Chief Medical and Scientific Officer, Harmony Biosciences: Yeah. Hey. Good morning, Ami. Thanks for the question. What we are disclosing right now is, no new safety or tolerability issues were observed with the pitolis and GR formulation.

No serious AEs were observed. The safety and tolerability was in general consistent with the established safety tolerability profile of pitolis and GR. We will be disclosing the full dataset in upcoming meetings. Haven’t decided when exactly. But what’s important from the pitolosin GR formulation army is we initiated forty six patients with narcolepsy with pitolefins GR at seventeen point eight milligrams.

And all of those patients were successfully able to tolerate seventeen point eight milligrams. And about ninety eight percent of the patients who went to get thirty five point six mg after one week of pitilessant GR, ninety eight percent of them were able to tolerate Fidulocent GR thirty five point six. And this is an important differentiation because if you look at the medicines that are approved for patients with narcolepsy, every one of them, including Fidulocent, has some level of titration. And getting rid of the titration will help the patients to start at the therapeutic dose range, potentially can experience efficacy earlier, potentially less number of dropouts, and potentially better overall patient experience.

Amy Fadia, Analyst, Needham: Got it. Thank you. If I could just squeeze in one more other quick question, if you could just elaborate on, some of the details of what we should expect from the Argus open label extension data at AES in December? Thanks.

Kumar Boudur, Chief Medical and Scientific Officer, Harmony Biosciences: Yes. Thank you, Ami. Yes, we will be presenting some efficacy data on EPX-one hundred from the August open label extension study. And we’ll also be presenting safety and tolerability data from EPX-one hundred from the same study, August double blind randomized study, and also the open label extension study. You will see the overall efficacy, the safety, tolerability, offers an overall very unique benefit risk profile for patients with developmental and epileptic encephalopathies.

In this particular instance, particularly the data that we’ll be sharing is in patients with Dravet syndrome.

Jeffrey Dano, President and CEO, Harmony Biosciences: Thank you, Amit. Thank

Amy Fadia, Analyst, Needham: you. Thanks.

Madison, Conference Operator: Thank you. And we will take our next question from David Amsellem with Piper Sandler. Please go ahead.

David Amsellem, Analyst, Piper Sandler: Just a couple for me. First,

Kumar Boudur, Chief Medical and Scientific Officer, Harmony Biosciences: wanted to

David Amsellem, Analyst, Piper Sandler: get your latest thoughts on biz dev and M and A, particularly in light of the failure of Xygel. Are you thinking more expansively regarding acquisitions? Are you open to more of a sizable transaction, perhaps a market ready or commercial stage asset? Just trying to get a sense philosophically for where your heads are at. That’s number one.

And then number two, looking a bit longer term regarding WCAGX, with the introduction of the first orexin agonist, coming potentially before the ’6, and I know it’s just NT1. How are you thinking about the trajectory of WAKICS beyond ’twenty six, specifically, in ’twenty seven with oviporexin, potentially in the market? Thanks.

Jeffrey Dano, President and CEO, Harmony Biosciences: Yes. Good morning, David. Thanks for your questions. So first with regards to BizDev and our sort of thinking there, I mean it really hasn’t changed. We have always been focused on business development, being strategic, thoughtful in how we deploy our capital as we have built out our pipeline.

Obviously, the Zynerv acquisition and then Epigenetics. I think at this point, despite the Fragile X data readout, it doesn’t really change our strategy. We have a dedicated BD team focused on sort of search and evaluation. And at this point, it really is our intent with our strong balance sheet to pursue innovative assets, to build out our pipeline, to grow our product portfolio. We are actively evaluating several and that is our plan.

The strategy remains the same. Our focus in orphan rare CNS disorders to be strategic within the current franchises, but also looking at adjacencies potentially in broader neuro indications, where we could utilize the proven commercial engine. So the strategy remains the same. I think, a bit more focused with regards to our intent to move forward with business development when we find the right opportunities for us. And I’ll turn to Adam in terms of thoughts on WCAG’s performance in the setting of EMERGE and Orexin.

Adam?

Adam Zevsky, Chief Commercial Officer, Harmony Biosciences: Yes. Thanks, Jeff, and thanks for the question, David. Look, we’re excited about Orexin’s, obviously, because we have one of our own, but it’s also an important potential new treatment option for patients. And we remain confident in our ability to grow and perform with Wakigs well into the future. There’s a couple of reasons for that.

The first is just the approach to therapy in this market. The hallmark of treatment is polypharmacy. You have a high majority of patients that are on two or more therapies and that will continue. We recently verified that in some market research that we’ve done speaking with physicians and they expect that to continue as well. But also if you just look at the history of Wakix, Wakix performance has been extremely steady regardless of new entrants, whether it’s brands or generics.

And we would expect that to continue as well. In fact, if you look at kind of the narcolepsy market in total, any time there’s been a new brand entrant, it tends to expand brand utilization. And we would expect a similar phenomenon with an orexin launch when those come to market. But we’re also highly confident just because Wakix is a highly differentiated product. A really non scheduled treatment option.

Physicians will have had seven, eight plus years of clinical experience by the time Orexin is launching it. It holds a unique position in the minds of healthcare providers. They’re highly familiar with it. It provides strong efficacy and and they believe it’s very well tolerated so it can be added to combinations of therapies across a very broad selection of narcolepsy patients. And that will continue as well.

We’ll continue to hold that position. So for those reasons, think we’re very confident in our continued growth and performance well into the future.

Kumar Boudur, Chief Medical and Scientific Officer, Harmony Biosciences: Okay. Thank you.

Jeffrey Dano, President and CEO, Harmony Biosciences: Thanks, David.

Madison, Conference Operator: Thank you. And we will take our next question from Greg Suvannavej with Mizuho. Please go ahead. Your line is open.

Greg Suvannavej, Analyst, Mizuho: Hey, good morning. Thanks for taking my question and congrats on the progress. One question for me, just going back to the 2025 guidance, it was nice to see a raising of the guidance. But if you do the math, it does imply fourth quarter sales for WCAG in the range of, I think, $221,000,000 to $241,000,000 And, on a quarter over quarter basis, that’s essentially flat or down, on a a quarter over quarter basis. So can you just provide more color on how we should be thinking about whether it’s net patient adds or gross to net or seasonality when trying to model fourth quarter?

I know you, Sandeep had mentioned some inventory, could be a factor, but any other color would be great on the fourth quarter, especially given the great momentum on inpatient adds.

Sandeep Kapadia, Chief Financial and Administrative Officer, Harmony Biosciences: Yes. Hi. Thanks, Craig, for the question. Again, I think we saw great demand in terms of top line growth that we expect to continue as we go from Q3 to Q4 As well I think we did as I mentioned, we did see a few days of trade inventory increase in Q3 which impacted the sales positively. Just as I mentioned in Q2, it’s quite the other way the other direction.

Right now, I mean we feel very good about the range that we put out there. We recently raised it as you mentioned. This gives us great confidence and I’m sure like every team, I mean we’ll do everything we can to certainly not only meet but potentially exceed the range as well. It’s hard to predict again Q4 because there are typical variabilities as you come to Q4, especially around brand and holiday so forth. Again, we feel good about where it is.

It’s very robust growth year over year. It’s going to be a robust growth over prior year. And we see again weight gain very quickly approaching blockbuster status as we go into 2026 and beyond.

Greg Suvannavej, Analyst, Mizuho: Great. If I could ask a follow-up, just your net cash position is building quite nicely. I’m sure there are various views on how to deploy that cash. Wondering if, maybe, an answer that might be slightly different from David’s question on BD, what are your kind of current thoughts on how best to deploy that nicely accruing cash balance?

Sandeep Kapadia, Chief Financial and Administrative Officer, Harmony Biosciences: Yes, sure. Mean, look, as Jeff mentioned, I mean, we continue to look for business development opportunities. I think we have that’s been a strategy for us for many years now. And we see attractive opportunities out there that we could potentially transact. And we have again a continued growth in terms of cash.

We had very strong cash generation last quarter of $106,000,000 $778,000,000 at the end of the quarter. And I think that gives us increasing confidence that we but again we’re going to be I would say thoughtful in terms of how we deploy our capital. I think we certainly have multiple ways in which to drive value for shareholders. Certainly more recently we’ve been prioritizing business development. But in the past we’ve also done share buyback as well as an opportunity.

And again, at the right time, we’ll look at various opportunities to drive value for shareholders.

David Hwan, Analyst, Deutsche Bank: Thank you.

Jeffrey Dano, President and CEO, Harmony Biosciences: Greg, I’ll

Kumar Boudur, Chief Medical and Scientific Officer, Harmony Biosciences: just go No,

Jeffrey Dano, President and CEO, Harmony Biosciences: no, I appreciate the question. I just want to reiterate, I think while one can never predict the timing in terms of business development transactions, as Sandeep alluded to, we have optionality, but our focus and our intent is really to pursue innovative value enhancing assets. We want to build our pipeline. We see that’s where the value is going forward as well as build a broader product portfolio in terms of we have a strong commercial engine. We want to continue to utilize that with additional products.

So that is our intent, and we have a strong balance sheet to execute on that.

Matthew Beck, Investor Relations, Harmony Biosciences0: Thank you.

Greg Suvannavej, Analyst, Mizuho: Thanks.

Madison, Conference Operator: Thank you. And we will take our next question from Jay Olson with Oppenheimer. Please go ahead.

Matthew Beck, Investor Relations, Harmony Biosciences1: Hey, congrats on the quarter and thank you for taking the question. Can you talk about your life cycle management plan for Pitrolis and GR and HD with regards to new patients? And then which patients currently on WCAG are the best candidates to benefit from GR and HD? And then for your Orecin two program, what would you like to learn from your phase one study? And any lessons learned from the ALKERMES and Takeda data at World Sleep?

Thank you.

Jeffrey Dano, President and CEO, Harmony Biosciences: Yes. Good morning, Jay. Thanks for your questions. Adam, our life cycle management strategy with regards to patients that would benefit from the formulation.

Adam Zevsky, Chief Commercial Officer, Harmony Biosciences: Yes. We’re really excited about the two life cycle management formulations, the GR and the HD. GR is kind of a fast to market strategy. And the strategy there would be any patient, any new patients that would have been prescribed WCAG would be prescribed the new Fotolus and GR formulation as well as we have the ability because we obtain consent from patients when they start WCAG therapy. We would also be able to recontact patients that may have been on WCAG previously, but had discontinued to see if PATOLAS and GR could be an option for them to consider as well.

So for GR, it’s really around new WCAG patients and previous patients. And then where the HD comes in with greatly differentiated profile, we would see the strategy there focusing on not only new WCAG’s patients and previous patients, but also existing WCAG’s patients. And that’s where the transition potential comes in. And we’ve conducted market research around this. HCPs respond very favorably to the profile of HD.

They view it as clinically significantly differentiated, actually superior. And in market research, they tell us they would consider transitioning a majority of their patients that maybe are better, but not well. And so that’s the strategy for HD. And then both formulations have utility patents filed through 2044. So it really allows us to expand and extend our sleep weight franchise well into the future.

Jeffrey Dano, President and CEO, Harmony Biosciences: In terms of

Sandeep Kapadia, Chief Financial and Administrative Officer, Harmony Biosciences: our reference to that

Jeffrey Dano, President and CEO, Harmony Biosciences: program, learnings from some of the other development programs.

Kumar Boudur, Chief Medical and Scientific Officer, Harmony Biosciences: Sure. Thank you, Jeff. Good morning, Jay, and thank you for the question. Yes, we are on track to initiate the Phase one study with our orexin-two receptor agonist this quarter. As we have disclosed in the past, we will be starting a healthy volunteer single ascending dose study.

And in parallel we will be conducting a sleep deprived healthy volunteer study as well to bracket the dose a bit. And we are closely watching the data that came out of World Sleep Congress from other orexin receptor agonists, especially as it relates to dosing and the safety and tolerability profile alongside the efficacy. You know, we have one of the most potent orexin receptor agonist based on all the publicly available data and it lends itself to target the central disease on NT2 and idiopathic hypersomnia at very low dose providing us the dosing flexibility to target these three indications. And we are also trying to see how we can accelerate our own program based on the data that is coming out from the other orexin receptor agonist. And you will be hearing more from our own orexin receptor agonist when we initiate the first in human study.

And we also anticipate to share some of the clinical data in 2026. Thank you, Jay.

Matthew Beck, Investor Relations, Harmony Biosciences1: Super helpful. Thanks again. Congrats on the quarter.

Jeffrey Dano, President and CEO, Harmony Biosciences: Thanks, Jay.

Madison, Conference Operator: Thank you. And we will take our next question from Pete Stavropoulos with Cantor Fitzgerald. Please go ahead.

Matthew Beck, Investor Relations, Harmony Biosciences2: Good morning and congratulations on the progress and thank you for taking my questions. Could you just touch on EPX-one 100 epilepsy program? Any clinical data that has been generated and disclosed that sort of gives you confidence in the Dravet and LGS program? Any details on efficacy, durability and safety? And can you also give us a sense of how enrollment is going in the Phase III studies?

Any granularity on timing of data or when you expect to complete enrollment? Thanks.

Jeffrey Dano, President and CEO, Harmony Biosciences: Good morning, Pete. Thanks for your questions. I’ll turn to Kumar for some more color on EPX program.

Kumar Boudur, Chief Medical and Scientific Officer, Harmony Biosciences: Yes. Good morning, Pete, and thank you for the question. Yes, I mean we are excited to share some of the efficacy data at the upcoming American Epilepsy Society meeting in December. As I mentioned earlier in the call, we will be sharing the data from the August open label extension study, that’s the study in Druve syndrome. In terms of your question around recruitment and enrollment, yes, I mean we continue to recruit patients in both ARGUS study and the Lighthouse study, the Struway and ILGS studies.

And we anticipate to share top line data in 2026. We’ll be providing more granularity in terms of timelines as we progress with the enrollment. Thank you. And

Matthew Beck, Investor Relations, Harmony Biosciences2: any thoughts on taking 100 into other DEs, or other DEs remain the focus of 200?

Kumar Boudur, Chief Medical and Scientific Officer, Harmony Biosciences: Yeah, great question. Thank you. Like there is this discussion around TS, LVS, what’s being separately versus going with the broader DE indication, right? So there are pros and cons with each of these approaches. Right now we are focused, laser focused, on Druhe syndrome and Lennox Gastaut syndrome.

We want to keep it that way, mainly to maintain the homogeneity of the patient population and try to get to the top line data as soon as possible and try and help these patients with a product profile, which is very favorable, not just from an efficacy perspective but also from a safety and tolerability perspective. Thank you.

Jeffrey Dano, President and CEO, Harmony Biosciences: Yes. Pete, maybe one addition just to remind everyone. So EPX-one hundred, clomazole hydrochloride, so a first generation antihistamine that was in the market for about twenty years with a proven safety tolerability profile. And in the overall sort of risk benefit in these sort of therapeutic options with other indicated agents such as Epidiolex and the need to monitor LFTs or FINTEPLA with echocardiograms required in the REMS program because of cardiac valvular disease, the risk there. So there is sort of a proven safety tolerability profile.

And in the overall kind of risk benefit, we see the opportunity there as we go forward and generate efficacy data in both Dravet and LGS.

Matthew Beck, Investor Relations, Harmony Biosciences2: All right. Thank you very much and congratulations once again.

Greg Suvannavej, Analyst, Mizuho: Thank you.

Madison, Conference Operator: Thank you. And we will take our next question from Danielle Brill with Truist Securities. Please go ahead.

Matthew Beck, Investor Relations, Harmony Biosciences3: Hi guys. Good morning. Congrats on the quarter and thanks for the question. Maybe just two quick ones from me. Do you have any sense of what proportion of your 8,100 patient base is NT1 versus NT2?

And then what findings, if any, in the fragile X dataset would make you consider reactivating the Q22 trial? Thank you.

Jeffrey Dano, President and CEO, Harmony Biosciences: Good morning, Danielle. Thanks for your questions. Adam, breakdown of patients on WCAG?

Adam Zevsky, Chief Commercial Officer, Harmony Biosciences: Sure. Thanks for the question. It’s been very consistent, actually, for the last several years. We see about forty five percent of patients from NT1, fifty five percent from NT2. And that’s been very stable.

Kumar Boudur, Chief Medical and Scientific Officer, Harmony Biosciences: Primor? Yes. Daniel, good morning and thank you for the question. We are right now conducting in-depth review of all the data from the RECONNECT study. As mentioned previously, the Frasile X syndrome study did not read out as expected, mainly because of the larger than anticipated placebo response.

Right now we are conducting a number of post hoc analysis. It’s very hard to say at this point in time what kind of data sets we need to see before we embark upon 22q deletion syndrome phase three study. Once all these data sets are available we will make a decision based on the data that we see. And we should be able to complete this work by the end of this year, and we should be able to provide some update on the Flazalex syndrome study itself and also the implications on twenty deletion syndrome early next year. Thank you, Daniel.

Matthew Beck, Investor Relations, Harmony Biosciences3: Thank you.

Jeffrey Dano, President and CEO, Harmony Biosciences: Yes. Thanks, Daniel.

Madison, Conference Operator: Thank you. And we will take our next question from Corinne Johnson with Goldman Sachs. Please go ahead.

Matthew Beck, Investor Relations, Harmony Biosciences4: Hi. This is Anupam on behalf of Corinne. Maybe one question for Kumar. Can you talk about the effect size you are powering for the Phase III pitilacin HD study to show on ESS scale? And what do you think a clinically meaningful difference would be in comparison to the current WCAG in order to support the HD use?

I think the WCAG shown around 12 to 13 final ESS score. Any color on that?

Kumar Boudur, Chief Medical and Scientific Officer, Harmony Biosciences: Hey. Good morning. Thank you for the call. Thank you for the question. Look, Amit, pitolocent HD, it’s an enhanced formulation.

It’s an enhanced next gen formulation. It’s not just the hydro, but it’s also it also has an optimized PK profile. Based on the dose response that we have seen with pitolocin in the pivotal narcolepsy clinical trials and also the studies that we conducted in Prader Willi syndrome and also in myotonic dystrophy and the dose and the exposure response data, some of the exposure response data that we have, we anticipate a meaningful increase in the efficacy from an excessive daytime sleepiness perspective. But it’s also important to note that we are not just targeting excessive daytime sleepiness, we are also targeting fatigue in patients with narcolepsy for which there are no approved treatments. And we are also targeting sleep inertia in patients with idiopathic hypersomnia for which there are no approved treatments.

And we plan to accomplish all of this without compromising on the safety or tolerability profile of pitolacen. In fact we conducted a Phase 1b study where we studied pitolacen up to one hundred and eighty milligrams, which is up to five times the maximum labeled dose of vacates. And the safety and tolerability profile in general was similar to what we see with vacates. So what it means at the end of the day is a very unique benefit risk analysis with established safety profile, established tolerability profile, larger efficacy and sleepiness, targeting symptoms like fatigue and narcolepsy, targeting symptoms like sleep inertia in patients with idiopathic hypersomnia, all while maintaining the nonscheduled status and a very simple dosing regimen of taking pill in the morning. So that’s what we plan to accomplish with pitotlufen HD.

Thank you.

Matthew Beck, Investor Relations, Harmony Biosciences4: Okay. Thank you.

Madison, Conference Operator: Thank you. And we will take our next question from Patrick Trucchio with H. C. Wainwright. Please go ahead.

Matthew Beck, Investor Relations, Harmony Biosciences5: Thanks. Good morning. I was wondering if you could elaborate a bit more on the sustainability and as well the drivers of the record approximate five hundred patient add in the third quarter. And if we should expect those drivers to continue in the fourth quarter, but as well in 2026. And then separately on Petolus and I think you mentioned strong early feedback from physicians and payers.

I’m wondering if you could elaborate on what’s resonating most and as well the implications for the Phase III development program.

Jeffrey Dano, President and CEO, Harmony Biosciences: Patrick, thank you for your questions. Adam? Yes. Thank you

Adam Zevsky, Chief Commercial Officer, Harmony Biosciences: for the question. So we’re really pleased with the momentum we’re seeing in increases in patient adds, as you mentioned. And the drivers, look, I think it starts with Wakix as a highly differentiated product. It’s the only nonscheduled treatment option. And that is combined with strong execution across the organization.

If you think about sales effectiveness and execution, marketing and promotional excellence, payer coverage, patient support, we’ve made adjustments in all of these areas. And we’re seeing those adjustments delivering the performance that you’re seeing and have confidence that, that momentum will definitely carry forward in Q4 and into 2026.

Jeffrey Dano, President and CEO, Harmony Biosciences: Okay. Patrick, second question?

Adam Zevsky, Chief Commercial Officer, Harmony Biosciences: Yes. So around the HD and so what resonates is the promise of improved efficacy, the no titration starting at a therapeutic dose, and unique indications, especially around IH and fatigue. We know that sixty percent of narcolepsy patients present with fatigue. This would be the only product that has the indication for fatigue in narcolepsy. And they view that as highly differentiated.

So I mentioned the feedback from HCPs, but we’ve also done research with payers. And the response is that we would expect broad payer coverage for the HD product with minimal step edits through for WCAG or no step edits actually prior to LOE. And even after LOE, only some mentions of perhaps some step edits, but only for patients that have never had any experience on WCAG before, which at this point, you know, and I guess will be at what, eight plus years in the market by then. The vast majority of patients will have had some experience with WCAG at some point in the past. And then of course, any patient that presents with fatigue would also not be subject to any step edits through WCAG even post LOE.

So we would expect broad payer coverage pre and post LOE supporting the product and its uptake.

Jeffrey Dano, President and CEO, Harmony Biosciences: Thank you, Adam.

Madison, Conference Operator: Thank you. And we will take our next question from Jason Gerberry with Bank of America. Please go ahead.

Matthew Beck, Investor Relations, Harmony Biosciences0: Hey, guys. This is Bhavan, on for Jason. Just two questions from us. The first is on EPX-one 100. You have two Phase III readouts expected in 2026.

So maybe if you can just speak to what you’ve learned from the fragile X syndrome as well as the prior idiopathic hypersomnia study about managing placebo response in these types of neurodevelopmental studies? And then the second question is on WCAGX. Can you just speak to where new patient growth is coming from? Are you activating new prescribers? Or is the growth primarily from deeper penetration within existing writers?

Thank you.

Jeffrey Dano, President and CEO, Harmony Biosciences: Thanks, Bhavan, for your question. Kumar, on EPX-one 100?

Kumar Boudur, Chief Medical and Scientific Officer, Harmony Biosciences: Yes. Hey, good morning, Warren. Thank you for the question. With EPX100, I mean, as you know, what we are studying here is the seizure frequency, which is slightly different from what we studied with Z10002 in the Frazolec syndrome. Preciporesponse in general is part and parcel of all neuropsych trials, especially psych trials with behavioral endpoints like Frazolec syndrome.

And we had multiple checks and balances within the study to manage the placebo response. With EPX-one 100 it’s slightly different in the sense seizure frequency is much more observable and much more definitive compared to some of the behavioral symptoms. So these are two distinct indications with distinct endpoints. But to your point in general, yes, I mean, placebo response can happen in any clinical trials and that is something that we are watching. And we have checks and balances with our EPX-one 100 Argus and Lighthouse clinical trials as well.

Jeffrey Dano, President and CEO, Harmony Biosciences: Okay. Adam?

Adam Zevsky, Chief Commercial Officer, Harmony Biosciences: Yes. And then in terms of WCAG’s new patients, so the short answer to your question is we see both new patients from increased penetration of existing writers as well as the addition of new writers. We see quarter over quarter pretty steady increase in new writers every quarter, and that’s continued for the past several years. We would expect that to continue. A little bit more detail, remember, we call on actually more than 9,000 physicians and that’s 4,000 that are enrolled in the oxybate REMS programs, but also more than 5,000 that are not enrolled in oxybate REMS programs.

We have the ability to call on both of those sets of physicians and in both instances we see increased penetration as well as new writers.

Jeffrey Dano, President and CEO, Harmony Biosciences: And I would just add, thank you for your question. Just to add, at a higher level, just to remind everyone that this is a large market. So in terms of the continued growth of Wakix, a highly differentiated product profile with broad clinical utility, the only non scheduled product, which is meaningful. As a former neurologist treating patients, very meaningful in terms of therapeutic options. But in a sizable market, eighty thousand patients diagnosed.

So as this market evolves and grows and more understanding, similar with learning about fatigue as a prominent symptom in patients with narcolepsy about sixty percent, so designing that into the Solasyn HD program. So I think that is the backdrop why we are confident, why the underlying fundamentals and the growth of WCAG in narcolepsy and our excitement and confidence in the Ptolocin HD program and Ptolocin GR. I think that has

Greg Suvannavej, Analyst, Mizuho: a lot to do with it as well.

Adam Zevsky, Chief Commercial Officer, Harmony Biosciences: Yes. I think it’s a great point, Jeff. I mean the fact that we’re at 8,100 average patients now in a market of over 80,000 diagnosed patients, obviously, we have a lot of room to continue to grow.

Jeffrey Dano, President and CEO, Harmony Biosciences: Yes. And also in a polypharmacy market, I think as you’re all familiar with, where any chronic neurologic disorders, it’s rare that a single mechanism of action will be able to treat difficult to treat chronic symptoms. And I think this is what we’re seeing as Wakus continues to grow. Thank you.

Madison, Conference Operator: Thank you. And we will take our next question from Ash Verma with Please go ahead.

Matthew Beck, Investor Relations, Harmony Biosciences6: Hi. Yes, thanks for taking questions from us. So maybe just I wanted to get your latest thoughts on how you’re thinking about the overall pipeline and diversification. I mean, we’ve seen two different setbacks recently, first on the IH side and then on PhyGalix. What gives you the confidence that the subsequent pipeline programs have higher chances of success?

And then on the VACIX $1,000,000,000 guide, is that something that you can achieve in 2026, just at the pace at which you’re going and where 4Q is analyzing at? With the caters direction expected to launch in 2027, what’s your level of urgency to hit the long term guide before the competitor entry? Yes.

Jeffrey Dano, President and CEO, Harmony Biosciences: Thank you, Ash. Let me start with the first question about our pipeline. And I just want to reiterate that I continue to have strong conviction in our pipeline programs, Kumar’s leadership and our R and D organization, has a lot of experience and expertise. We don’t have time, but if you look at each of if you look at the IH study, if you look at Fragile X, there are good reasons in terms of the outcomes that we’ve sort of talked about. In the ZYN002 program, in talking with KOLs, unfortunately that pattern, programs where there were positive Phase II data and a lot of expectation because there are no approved treatments and a high placebo response rate kind of got into multiple Phase III programs, which is the reason why none have been successful.

We have learnings from that, and we will take those learnings going forward. But I think I continue to have conviction in EPX-one 100, our other pipeline programs. And Kumar, any additional thoughts?

Kumar Boudur, Chief Medical and Scientific Officer, Harmony Biosciences: Yes. Think you got it. Good. Thank you.

Greg Suvannavej, Analyst, Mizuho: Okay.

Adam Zevsky, Chief Commercial Officer, Harmony Biosciences: Yes. And then thanks, Ash, for the question around achieving $1,000,000,000 in revenue. Obviously, it’s a little bit premature to provide guidance for 2026 specifically, but we’re seeing very strong momentum as you saw in Q3 and in Q2. We’d expect that momentum to continue in Q4 and well into 2026. And we’re confident we will achieve $1,000,000,000 in revenue well before LOE.

So confidence in the meantime.

Jeffrey Dano, President and CEO, Harmony Biosciences: Thanks, Adam. Thanks, Ash.

Madison, Conference Operator: Thank you. And we will take our next question from David Hwan with Deutsche Bank. Please go ahead.

David Hwan, Analyst, Deutsche Bank: Hi, there. Thanks for taking the questions. So I want to ask on eligible patients for WCAG or sorry, Fetolocent HD and GR. I think for HD, you mentioned new, previous and switch patients, I think, are all on the table. Just wondering what, in your mind, defines a good switch patient for going from WATICS to HD?

And then switching would switching be an option for GR patients? Thanks.

Adam Zevsky, Chief Commercial Officer, Harmony Biosciences: Thanks for the question. So I guess the switch patients, obviously, that’s going be determined by the healthcare provider. But we know that seventy five percent of patients with narcolepsy continue to struggle with residual symptoms. And so if we’re able to offer the HD product with an improved efficacy profile, but the same safety and tolerability profile that they’re very familiar with on WCAG’s, we would expect HCPs to consider their patients that potentially could benefit from a boost in efficacy and feel confident that they won’t be addressing introducing any new safety or tolerability issues. And also any patients that present with fatigue, and as I mentioned before, we know that sixty percent of patients with narcolepsy do present with fatigue, those would be prime candidates for the HD as well.

And then for the GR, yes, I mean, a switch would be an option certainly for the healthcare provider. In terms of our strategy, we’ll be focused on new patients and previous patients, as I mentioned before.

Jeffrey Dano, President and CEO, Harmony Biosciences: Thank you.

Madison, Conference Operator: And I’m showing no further questions. I would now like to turn the call back for any closing remarks.

Jeffrey Dano, President and CEO, Harmony Biosciences: Thanks, operator. Behalf of the Harmony team, want to thank everyone for joining our call today and for your interest in Harmony Biosciences. Have a great rest of your day. Thank you.

Madison, Conference Operator: This does conclude today’s Harmony Biosciences third quarter twenty twenty five financial results conference call. You may now disconnect your line, and

Matthew Beck, Investor Relations, Harmony Biosciences2: have

Madison, Conference Operator: a wonderful day.
