Allschwil, Switzerland – February 26, 2026
Idorsia Ltd (SIX: IDIA) announces strong financial and operational results for the full year 2025, setting a new base for further growth ahead and a catalyst rich 2026.
Srishti Gupta, MD, Chief Executive Officer of Idorsia, commented: “2025 marked a year of disciplined execution and renewed momentum for Idorsia. We delivered on our upgraded guidance, more than doubled QUVIVIQ sales, and significantly strengthened our financial position – demonstrating that focused investment and commercial excellence can go hand in hand. At the same time, we continued the next phase of growth: positioning TRYVIO/JERAYGO as the first treatment to target a new pathway in hypertension in decades and progressing our pipeline, including the upcoming readout of the pediatric insomnia study and the registrational program for lucerastat in Fabry disease. With multiple catalysts ahead, we enter 2026 with clarity, confidence, and a clear path toward sustainable growth.”
QUVIVIQ® (daridorexant)
- Global 2025 net sales grow to CHF 134 million, reflecting outstanding year-over-year momentum – with continued strong growth ahead.
- QUVIVIQ continues to reshape the insomnia treatment landscape, and we are investing to accelerate its trajectory toward blockbuster status. Growth will be driven by expanded global reach through partnerships targeting general practitioners, strategic commercial alliances, additional public reimbursement wins, potential U.S. descheduling, adoption of innovative digital and distribution models, and the initiation of a U.S. label-enhancing study focused on daytime functioning.
- New opportunity to transform the treatment paradigm in pediatric insomnia with results expected in Q2 2026 from the Phase 2 study for daridorexant – the only dual orexin receptor antagonist in development for this population with high unmet need.
TRYVIO™ / JERAYGO™ (aprocitentan)
- TRYVIO is available in the US and used in the top 25 hypertension centers.
- Robust on-market experience among leading experts indicates “PRECISION-like” double-digit blood pressure reductions and confirms the tolerability profile across diverse patient groups.
- Regulatory success in 2025 – JERAYGO is approved in EU, UK, Switzerland, and Canada.
- Partnering discussions to maximize the global value of TRYVIO/JERAYGO are progressing.
Research & Development
- Alignment with the FDA on the registrational program for lucerastat, positioning Idorsia to advance the first oral therapy intended for all patients with Fabry disease.
- Advancing Idorsia’s immunology portfolio of first-in-class compounds – starting with Idorsia’s CCR6 antagonist proof-of-concept in psoriasis (proof-of-mechanism for other CCR6- and Th17-associated autoimmune diseases).
- Clinical validation for Idorsia's revolutionary drug-like synthetic glycan vaccine technology.

Net revenue of CHF 221 million in 2025 resulted from product sales (CHF 134 million), product sales to partners (CHF 7 million), and contract revenues (CHF 79 million). This compares to net revenue of CHF 113 million in 2024 as a result of QUVIVIQ product sales (CHF 61 million), product sales to partners (CHF 47 million), and contract revenue (CHF 5 million).
US GAAP operating expenses of CHF 268 million in 2025 and CHF 351 million in 2024 were impacted by a one-off gain of CHF 90 million (Viatris deal amendment) in 2025 and CHF 125 million (Viatris deal) in 2024, respectively. Excluding these one-off gains, US GAAP operating expenses for 2025 decreased by CHF 83 million, mainly driven by R&D expenses of CHF 102 million decreasing by CHF 42 million compared to 2024 (CHF 144 million), and SG&A expenses of CHF 221 million decreasing by CHF 52 million compared to 2024 (CHF 273 million).
US GAAP net loss in 2025 amounted to CHF 112 million compared to CHF 264 million (net loss) in 2024. The reduced net loss in 2025 was primarily driven by revenue growth and lower operating expenses as a result of an operational restructuring initiated in Q4 2024.
The US GAAP net loss resulted in a net loss per share of CHF 0.52 (basic and diluted) in 2025, compared to a net loss per share of CHF 1.45 (basic and diluted) in 2024.

* Idorsia measures, reports, and issues guidance on non-GAAP operating performance. Idorsia believes that these non-GAAP financial measurements more accurately reflect the underlying business performance and therefore provide useful supplementary information to investors. These non-GAAP measures are reported in addition to, not as a substitute for, US GAAP financial performance.
Non-GAAP net loss in 2025 amounted to CHF 118 million; the difference versus US GAAP net income was mainly driven by the one-off gain from the amendment of the Viatris deal (CHF 90 million), depreciation and amortization (CHF 17 million) , share-based compensation (CHF 6 m), impairment charges (CHF 3 m), restructuring charges (CHF 3 m), accretion and issuance cost amortization (CHF 16 m) and a debt extinguishment loss related to the debt restructuring (CHF 37 million).
The non-GAAP net loss resulted in a net loss per share of CHF 0.55 (basic and diluted) in 2025, compared to a net loss per share of CHF 1.81 (basic and diluted) in 2024.
