Current report
We do not maintain or evaluate internal research and development costs on a program-by-program basis. As a result, a significant portion of our research and development expenses are not tracked on a program-by-program basis, as the costs may benefit multiple programs. Beginning the quarter ended September 30, 2025, we no longer allocate non-program specific external costs or internal costs to programs. These costs are separately presented on the respective line items listed above. Research and development expenses have been reclassified for the three months ended September 30, 2024 for comparability. There is no impact on total research and development expenses.
Current report
Research and development expenses increased to $44.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 from $41.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024. The increase was primarily driven by the following:
Current report
•$6.4 million increase in BCX17725 primarily due to an increase in manufacturing and clinical operations as we enroll our phase 1 trial in healthy volunteers and patients;
Current report
•$2.1 million increase in research, discovery and preclinical programs primarily due to investigational new drug application-enabling activities related to our early-phase pipeline programs; partially offset by:
Current report
•$2.0 million decrease in stock-based compensation expense primarily due to the acceleration of stock-based compensation expense upon adoption of the retirement policy in July 2024, partially offset by an increase in restricted stock unit awards granted;
Current report
•$0.9 million decrease in compensation and related personnel costs primarily attributed to a decrease in research and development related headcount.
Current report
For the three months ended September 30, 2025, other income was $2.7 million, which was primarily comprised of pre-close transaction services BioCryst performed on behalf of Neopharmed related to the sale of BioCryst Ireland.
Current report
For the three months ended September 30, 2025, income tax benefit was $0.8 million compared to income tax expense of $0.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024. The increase was primarily driven by the impact of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”) which was signed into law on July 4, 2025.

Complement Program
Previous report
The goal of our overall complement program is to advance first-in-class and/or best-in-class compounds across multiple pathways in the complement system to treat complement-mediated diseases. We are pursuing oral medicines and protein therapeutics directed at targets across the classical, lectin, terminal, and alternative pathways of the complement system, including the therapies listed below.
Previous report
Oral C5 Inhibitor. We are developing an oral C5 inhibitor that could be the first targeted oral therapy with competitive efficacy to currently-approved injected and infused anti-C5 therapies, such as eculizumab and ravulizumab. A drug with this profile could enable patients to switch from infused therapy and address their disease earlier in the treatment paradigm.
Previous report
Oral C2 Inhibitor. We are developing a classical and lectin pathway complement inhibitor. An oral C2 inhibitor developed by us could be first-in-class and allow patients to switch from infused therapy and address their disease earlier in the treatment paradigm.
Previous report
Bifunctional Complement Inhibitor. We are developing a bifunctional complement inhibitor anti-C2 monoclonal antibody that could be a first-in-class combined inhibitor of the classical, lectin and alternative pathways of the complement system to treat complex complement-mediated diseases that are influenced by multiple complement pathways.
Previous report
On May 5, 2025, we announced that the percentage of U.S. HAE patients who describe a strong preference for an oral prophylaxis therapy increased to 70 percent, up from 50 percent in 2023, in our latest market survey of HAE patients.
Previous report
On May 5, 2025, we announced that we submitted a new drug application (“NDA”) to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) to expand the ORLADEYO label to children with HAE aged 2 to 11 using an oral granule formulation. We also announced our expectation to submit regulatory filings in 2025 in global territories, including Europe, Japan and Canada. ORLADEYO would be the first targeted oral prophylactic therapy for children with HAE.
Previous report
On May 14, 2025, we announced that the FDA accepted our NDA for the use of ORLADEYO in pediatric patients with HAE aged 2 to 11 years. In addition, we announced that the FDA granted priority review of our NDA, with a Prescription Drug User Fee Act (“PDUFA”) target action date of September 12, 2025. We also announced that we filed a line extension application for the use of ORLADEYO oral granules in patients with HAE aged 2 to 11 years with the European Medicines Agency. On June 23, 2025, the FDA extended the PDUFA goal date for our NDA for the use of once-daily ORLADEYO oral granules in pediatric patients with HAE aged 2 to 11 years due to our submission of additional final reports and formulation data, which resulted in a standard three-month extension to the original goal date to provide time for a full review of the submission. The new PDUFA target action date for our NDA is December 12, 2025.
Previous report
On May 16, 2025, we announced new real-world evidence on the use of ORLADEYO in adolescents and people with severe HAE showing significant and sustained reductions in HAE attack rates through 18 months of follow-up after beginning treatment with ORLADEYO in both patient populations.
Previous report
On May 30, 2025, we announced new data highlighting the reduction in the percentage of days with HAE symptoms among young children initiating berotralstat in our APeX-P trial.

Previous report
The following table summarizes our research and development expenses for the periods indicated (in thousands). Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified for consistency with the current year presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the total research and development expenses.
Previous report
Research and development expenses increased to $43.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 from $37.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, primarily due to an increase in preclinical and early clinical work for avoralstat, BCX17725, and early-phase pipeline programs, primarily due to investigational new drug application-enabling activities. Further, there was an increase in stock-based compensation expense as a result of the retirement policy adopted in July 2024 and an increase in restricted stock unit awards granted. These increases were partially offset by the discontinuation and close-out of the Factor D programs, and a decrease in berotralstat-related regulatory, safety and quality expenses as efforts shifted to selling, general, and administrative related activities, reflecting the program’s commercial progression.

The Pharmakon Loan Agreement contains representations and warranties and affirmative and negative covenants customary for financings of this type, as well as customary events of default. Certain of the customary negative covenants limit the ability of the Company and certain of its subsidiaries to, among other things, dispose of assets; engage in mergers, acquisitions, and similar transactions; incur additional indebtedness; grant liens; make investments; pay dividends or make distributions or certain other restricted payments in respect of equity; prepay other indebtedness; enter into restrictive agreements; undertake fundamental changes; or amend certain material contracts, among other customary covenants, in each case subject to certain exceptions. These covenants could cause us to be unable to pursue business opportunities that we or our stockholders may consider beneficial without the lenders’ permission or without repaying all obligations outstanding under the Pharmakon Loan Agreement. A breach of any of these covenants could result in an event of default under the Pharmakon Loan Agreement. As of June 30, 2025, we were in compliance with the negative covenants under the Pharmakon Loan Agreement. See “Note 8—Debt” in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1 of this report for additional information about our obligations under the Pharmakon Loan Agreement.

We are a global biotechnology company with a deep commitment to improving the lives of people living with hereditary angioedema (“HAE”) and other rare diseases. We leverage our expertise in structure-guided drug design with the goal of developing first-in-class or best-in-class oral small-molecule and injectable protein therapeutics to target difficult-to-treat rare diseases. In addition to our discovery and development efforts, our business strategy includes the successful commercialization of these drugs, as well as self-funding all of these efforts by achieving and increasing profitability. By focusing primarily on rare disease markets, we believe that we can more effectively control the costs of, and our strategic allocation of financial resources toward, post-approval commercialization.
Current wording
We are a global biotechnology company focused on developing and commercializing medicines for hereditary angioedema (“HAE”) and other rare diseases, driven by our deep commitment to improving the lives of people living with these conditions. We have built a robust commercial infrastructure to support the launch and continued success of ORLADEYO, an oral, once-daily therapy discovered and developed internally for the prevention of HAE attacks. Our business strategy includes leveraging this established commercial platform to successfully commercialize a pipeline of potential first-in-class or best-in-class oral small-molecule and injectable protein therapeutics targeting a range of rare diseases. These programs are being pursued through both internal discovery efforts and strategic business development. By utilizing our existing commercial capabilities and focusing on rare disease markets, we believe that we can more effectively optimize our costs and strategically allocate resources to support long-term, sustainable growth.

We have built out our U.S. commercial infrastructure to support the launch and continued commercialization of ORLADEYO in the United States and are continuing to build our commercial infrastructure to support launches in other markets. Based on proprietary analyses of HAE prevalence and market research studies with HAE patients, physicians, and payors in the United States and Europe, and over four years of commercialization experience with ORLADEYO, we anticipate that the global commercial market for ORLADEYO has the potential to reach a global peak of $1 billion in annual net ORLADEYO revenues. We expect approximately 80 percent of our revenue at peak to come from the United States. These expectations are subject to numerous risks and uncertainties that may cause our actual results, performance, or achievements to be materially different. There can be no assurance that our commercialization methods and strategies will succeed, or that the market for ORLADEYO will develop in line with our current expectations. See “Risk Factors—Risks Relating to Our Business—Risks Relating to Drug Development and Commercialization—There can be no assurance that our or our partners’ commercialization efforts, methods, and strategies for our products or technologies will succeed, and our future revenue generation is uncertain” in Part II, Item 1A of this report for further discussion of these risks.

Revenue from sales of ORLADEYO for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 is discussed under “Results of Operations” in this MD&A. Revenue from sales of ORLADEYO in future periods is subject to uncertainties and will depend on several factors, including our pending transaction with Neopharmed, as defined and discussed below, for the sale of our European ORLADEYO Business (as described further under “Recent Developments—Neopharmed Gentili S.p.A. Stock Purchase Agreement” below), the success of our and our partners’ commercialization efforts in the United States and elsewhere, the number of new patients switching to ORLADEYO, patient retention and demand, the number of physicians prescribing ORLADEYO, the rate of monthly prescriptions, reimbursement from third-party and government payors, the number of patients receiving free product, our pricing strategy, and market trends. We monitor and analyze this data on an ongoing basis as we continue to commercialize ORLADEYO and adjust our forecasts accordingly.

Previous wording
We are developing our investigational plasma kallikrein inhibitor, avoralstat, with Clearside Biomedical, Inc.’s SCS Microinjector®to deliver avoralstat to the back of the eye through the suprachoroidal space to treat patients with diabetic macular edema (“DME”). DME is an important cause of vision loss in diabetes and is due to leakage of fluid from the blood vessels in the retina. While current treatments focus on vascular endothelial growth factor (“VEGF”) inhibition, DME can develop from other mechanisms, such as the kallikrein-bradykinin pathway. This is supported by observations that many DME patients have an incomplete response to intravitreal anti-VEGF therapies that are administered every four to eight weeks. Avoralstat targets the kallikrein-bradykinin system on the retinal vascular endothelial cells and may result in less vascular leakage and less edema. Avoralstat, delivered to the suprachoroidal space, is designed to provide long-lasting exposure to the retinal vessels, which could result in less frequent injections and a reduced burden on patients and the healthcare system.

Our liquidity needs will be largely determined by the success of operations in regard to the successful commercialization of our products and the future progression of our product candidates. From time to time, we evaluate other opportunities to fund future operations, including: (1) out-licensing rights to certain of our products or product candidates, pursuant to which we would receive cash milestone payments; (2) royalty or other monetization transactions; (3) obtaining additional product candidate regulatory approvals, which would generate revenue, milestone payments and cash flow; (4) reducing spending on one or more research and development programs, including by discontinuing development; (5) restructuring operations to change our overhead structure; and/or (6) securing U.S. Government funding of our programs, including obtaining procurement contracts. We may, in the future, issue securities, including common stock, preferred stock, depositary shares, purchase contracts, warrants, debt securities, and units, through private placement transactions or registered public offerings. Our future liquidity needs, and our ability to address those needs, will largely be determined by the success of our products and product candidates; the timing, scope, and magnitude of our research and development and commercial expenses; and key developments and regulatory events and our decisions in the future.

The Pharmakon Loan Agreement also provided for three additional term loan tranches in principal amounts of $50.0 million each, which we could have requested, at our option, on or prior to September 30, 2024. We chose not to request any of the additional term loan tranches. The maturity date of the Pharmakon Loan Agreement was April 17, 2028. On April 18, 2025, we made a partial prepayment of $75.0 million of the outstanding principal amount under the Pharmakon Loan Agreement, and on July 24, 2025, we made an additional partial prepayment of$50.0 million of the outstanding principal amount under the Pharmakon Loan Agreement. On October 8, 2025, we used a portion of the proceeds from the sale of the European ORLADEYO Business to pay off in full the outstanding principal balance of $198.7 million and terminate the Pharmakon Loan Agreement. Together, these payoffs of the Pharmakon Loan are expected to save approximately $90.0 million of interest, as of September 30, 2025.
