Current report
Research and development expenses decreased by $0.4 million, or 15%, for the three months ended September 30, 2025 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2024. The decrease was primarily attributable to a $0.4 million decrease in clinical trial costs resulting from the completion of the Phase 3 trial of Hydronidone in the second quarter of 2025, and a $0.2 million decrease in pre-clinical research expenses, partially offset by $0.2 million increase in staff costs.
Current report
The Company recorded other income of $0.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 compared to other expense of $0.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024. The other income recorded was primarily due to a $0.6 million increase in government grant and a $0.2 million decrease in the write-off of deferred financing fees.
Current report
Comparison of the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024
Current report
Revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 were $79.4 million and $77.9 million, respectively. The $1.5 million, or 2%, increase was primarily due to the increase in new product sales of Contiva® by $3.0 million and Etorel® by $3.1 million, partially offset by a $4.4 million decline in ETUARY® sales and a $0.2 million decrease in generic drug revenue. The decrease in ETUARY® sales was primarily due to the allocation of marketing resources towards the launches of two new products during the first half of the year. In the third quarter, Gyre refocused marketing efforts on ETUARY® in response to market uncertainties related to nintedanib and avatrombopag, both of which were included in the latest national volume-based procurement catalog. For the three months ended September 30, 2025, Gyre recorded an increase in ETUARY® sales compared to the same period in 2024, and Gyre expects ETUARY® sales will continue to grow in the three months ended December 31, 2025 compared to the same period in 2024.
Current report
Other Income (Expense), net increased by $0.7 million, or 2856%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The increase was primarily due to a $0.7 million increase in government grant.
Current report
The increase in cash provided by operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared with cash used in operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 was primarily attributable to higher customer collections, increased government grants, reduced payments for raw materials and services, and lower tax payments resulting from employee stock option exercises.

Previous report
Revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 were $26.8 million and $25.2 million, respectively. The $1.6 million, or 6%, increase was primarily due to a $1.6 million increase in revenue as a result of Etorel’s commercial launch in June 2025 and a $1.5 million increase in revenue from the sales of Contiva. These increases were offset by a $1.5 million decline in ETUARY® sales.

Comparison of the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024
Previous report
Revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 were $48.8 million and $52.4 million, respectively. The $3.6 million, or 7%, decrease was primarily due to a $6.8 million decline in ETUARY® sales, partially offset by the increase in new product sales of Contiva by $1.8 million and Etorel by $1.6 million. The decrease in ETUARY® sales was mainly due to lower sales volume compared to the first half of 2024, when revenues were elevated by a one-time rural marketing campaign that was not repeated in 2025. Additionally, weaker economic conditions in China and increased competition in the IPF treatment market also contributed to the decline. During the first half of 2025, marketing efforts were intentionally shifted to support the launches of Etorel and Contiva.
Previous report
Selling and marketing expenses decreased by $0.9 million, or 3%, for the six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease was primarily driven by a reduction in commission costs due to the decrease in sales.

Previous wording
In addition to IPF, pirfenidone is undergoing one additional Phase 3 trial in the PRC for the treatment of pneumoconiosis to broaden its indications and market. In March 2025, we received approval from the PRC’s National Medical Products Administration (the “NMPA”) for a clinical trial application for the treatment of radiation-induced lung injury with or without immune-related pneumonitis. We are currently preparing to initiate the anticipated clinical trial in the second half of 2025.
Current wording
Gyre Pharmaceuticals successfully advanced pirfenidone from research and development to commercialization in the PRC for the treatment of IPF. In addition to IPF, pirfenidone is undergoing one additional Phase 3 trial in the PRC for the treatment of pneumoconiosis to broaden its indications and market, and in the third quarter of 2025, this trial completed patient enrollment. In March 2025, we received approval from the PRC’s National Medical Products Administration (the “NMPA”) for a clinical trial application for the treatment of radiation-induced lung injury, including cases complicated by immune-related pneumonitis. We are currently preparing to initiate the anticipated adaptive Phase 2/3 clinical trial, which will combine dose exploration with efficacy confirmation, to efficiently evaluate pirfenidone's potential in this new indication. This Phase 2/3 clinical trial is expected to initiate in the fourth quarter of 2025.
Previous wording
Gyre Pharmaceuticals successfully advanced pirfenidone from research and development to commercialization in the PRC for the treatment of IPF. In May 2024, Gyre Pharmaceuticals executed a comprehensive agreement with Jiangsu Wangao Pharmaceuticals Co., Ltd. to acquire the commercial rights to Etorel (nintedanib, ethanesulfonate soft capsules). Etorel has been approved for the treatment of patients with SSc-ILD and PF-ILD. Etorel is expected to provide patients with more choices and benefits. Gyre Pharmaceuticals successfully initiated a commercial launch of Etorel in the PRC in the second quarter of 2025, which has and we expect will continue to help offset declines in ETUARY® sales as a result of increased competition in the IPF treatment market and the fluctuations in the Chinese economy that have weakened overall healthcare spending. We believe that this launch can drive meaningful revenue growth, expand our market penetration, and enhance brand recognition within the respiratory disease space. Additionally, the commercialization of Etorel aligns with our broader strategy of building a comprehensive pulmonary care portfolio, potentially creating opportunities for synergies with our existing and future product offerings. We expect to continue to invest in commercialization efforts, including market access, physician education, and patient support programs, to optimize uptake and maximize the long-term value of this product.

Gyre Pharmaceuticals completed a pivotal Phase 3 trial of Hydronidone in the PRC evaluating its safety and efficacy for the treatment of liver fibrosis in patients with chronic hepatitis B (“CHB”) associated liver fibrosis. The 52-week, multicenter, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial enrolled 248 patients with CHB fibrosis across 39 hospitals in the PRC. Patients were randomized 1:1 to receive either entecavir anti-viral therapy plus Hydronidone (270 mg/day, orally) or entecavir antiviral therapy alone. The trial met its primary endpoint, with a statistically significant proportion of patients receiving Hydronidone achieving a ≥1-stage regression in liver fibrosis compared to placebo (P=0.0002). In addition, Hydroindone met a key secondary endpoint with statistically significant inflammation improvement without fibrosis progression at Week 52 versus the placebo arm. Hydronidone was well tolerated with a comparable incidence of serious adverse events (4.88% vs. 6.45% in the placebo group) and no discontinuations due to adverse events in either group.

Based on these positive results, we plan to file a New Drug Application with the NMPA in the third quarter of 2025. In parallel, we are actively preparing to file an investigational new drug application (“IND”) with the U.S. Federal Food and Drug Administration in the third quarter of 2025 and, subject to IND clearance, plan to initiate a Phase 2 trial in the United States evaluating Hydronidone for the treatment of MASH-associated fibrosis in the second half of 2025. A prior U.S. Phase 1 trial in healthy volunteers confirmed Hydronidone’s tolerability and demonstrated a pharmacokinetic profile consistent with the results of clinical trials of Hydronidone in the PRC.
Current wording
Based on these positive results, we plan to file a New Drug Application with the NMPA and the submission process is ongoing. In parallel, we continue to engage with the U.S. Federal Food and Drug Administration regarding the investigational new drug application (“IND”) requirements for a Phase 2 trial evaluating Hydronidone for the treatment of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis ("MASH")-associated liver fibrosis. Pending regulatory feedback, we plan to file the U.S. IND for Hydronidone for the treatment of MASH-associated liver fibrosis in 2026 and, subject to clearance, initiate a Phase 2 clinical trial. We plan to conduct a hepatic impairment study in U.S. subjects under our active U.S. IND. Results from this study are expected to help optimize dose selection and safe enrollment criteria in populations with reduced hepatic function, supporting a more robust Phase 2 development plan. A prior U.S. Phase 1 trial in healthy volunteers confirmed Hydronidone’s tolerability and demonstrated a pharmacokinetic profile consistent with the results of clinical trials of Hydronidone in the PRC.
Previous wording
We are also conducting a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase 2 clinical trial in the PRC to assess the safety and efficacy of F573, a caspase inhibitor for the treatment of acute/acute on-chronic liver failure. Completion of the Phase 2 clinical trial is expected in 2026. In June 2025, we successfully dosed the first volunteer in a Phase 1 in the PRC trial evaluating F230, a selective endothelin receptor agonist, for the treatment of pulmonary arterial hypertension. We are also evaluating F528, a novel anti-inflammation agent that targets the inhibition of multiple inflammatory cytokines, in preclinical studies as a potential first-line therapy for the treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
