Current report
•$29.6 million increase in ORLADEYO revenue, excluding revenues associated with our European ORLADEYO business, primarily due to the transition to a new sole source specialty pharmacy for ORLADEYO shipments to patients in the United States in the third quarter of 2026, as well as growth in the underlying U.S. business (reflecting an increase in net price and higher volume of oral pellets for pediatric patients, partially offset by lower capsule shipments). Unlike the previous specialty pharmacy arrangement, the new specialty pharmacy takes title to and maintains inventory of ORLADEYO prior to dispensing to patients and is required to maintain 7-21 days of inventory on hand. In connection with the transition, the new specialty pharmacy established its initial inventory position in the third quarter of 2026, and the related purchases contributed favorably to revenues during the period in an amount in the upper teens of millions of dollars. As of September 30, 2026, inventory levels at the new specialty pharmacy were at the lower end of the required range; and

Current report
•$3.8 million decrease in research, discovery and preclinical programs due to the discontinuation of various programs as a result of the Birmingham Closure Plan;
Current report
The increase in sales and marketing expenses (excluding stock-based compensation) for the three months ended September 30, 2026 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2025 was primarily driven by $3.0 million of expense associated with the transition to a new sole source specialty pharmacy for ORLADEYO shipments to patients in the United States in the third quarter of 2026 and $1.7 million of cash separation costs related to the September 2026 workforce reduction (see “Note 13—Workforce Reduction” in the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1 of this report); partially offset by a $1.2 million decrease in manufacturing support related costs.
Current report
•$3.8 million increase in severance costs primarily driven by Astria related severance costs and cash separation costs related to the September 2026 workforce reduction; and
Current report
•$3.0 million of expense associated with the transition to a new sole source specialty pharmacy for ORLADEYO shipments to patients in the United States in the third quarter of 2026.

Income tax expense
Current report
For the three months ended September 30, 2026, income tax expense was $0.7 million compared to an income tax benefit of $0.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025. The increase in income tax expense was primarily due to the tax benefit recognized in the third quarter of 2025 resulting from the enactment of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”) during the three months ended September 30, 2025 which allowed additional taxable deductions for domestic research and development expenditures.
Current report
For the nine months ended September 30, 2026, income tax expense was $2.8 million compared to $1.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. The increase in income tax expense was primarily driven by the increase in U.S. and foreign taxable income for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2025.
Current report
Revenues from product sales are recorded at the net selling price (transaction price), which includes estimates of variable consideration including government and managed care rebates, chargebacks, co-payment and patient assistance, quick starts, and product returns. Variable consideration is estimated using the expected value method and is included in product sales, net only to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur. Estimates are reassessed each reporting period. If actual results vary from estimates, adjustments are recognized, which would affect net product revenue and earnings in the period identified.
Current report
The most subjective of these estimates are government and managed care rebates. We estimate rebates payable to third-party payors, including managed care organizations and government programs, and record such amounts as reductions of gross product revenues at the time revenue is recognized, with corresponding liabilities recorded in accrued expenses. Rebate estimates are based on contractual terms, applicable program requirements, and product distribution information obtained from our specialty pharmacy regarding payor mix.

Previous report
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 five 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. 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 Product 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.
Previous report
In May 2026, we presented new real-world evidence underscoring the ongoing burden of pediatric HAE, with studies highlighting the significant healthcare and quality-of-life burden associated with HAE in pediatric patients and their caregivers. In addition, on June 12, 2026, we announced that new clinical data and real-world evidence demonstrated that treatment with ORLADEYO was associated with consistent reductions in HAE attack burden and healthcare utilization across diverse patient populations.

Navenibart (STAR-0215)
Previous report
On May 4, 2026, we announced that we entered into a licensing agreement granting an Irish affiliate of Neopharmed Gentili S.p.A. (“Neopharmed”) exclusive rights to commercialize navenibart for HAE in Europe (the “Neopharmed License Agreement”). We received upfront consideration of $70.0 million and will be eligible to receive up to $275.0 million in future regulatory and sales milestone payments. We will also receive tiered royalties on net sales ranging from 18% to 30%. Navenibart is an investigational product that has not yet received regulatory approval in the United States or Europe.
Previous report
On May 6, 2026, we announced that patient enrollment in ALPHA-ORBIT, the ongoing pivotal study of navenibart for the prophylaxis of HAE, was on track to be completed by the end of June 2026. On June 29, 2026, we announced that enrollment was completed in June 2026, putting navenibart on track to potentially be the first HAE therapy to have both 3- and 6-month dosing with efficacy evaluated through 12 months.
Previous report
On June 12, 2026, we announced that a post-hoc analysis of the Phase 1b/2 multicenter, dose-ranging, open-label ALPHA-STAR study of navenibart demonstrated that investigational navenibart consistently reduced HAE attack rates across patient subgroups, supporting the ongoing Phase 3 evaluation of navenibart as a potential long-acting therapeutic option for the broad HAE population.

Birmingham Closure Plan
Previous report
On June 25, 2026, our Board of Directors approved a plan to discontinue our internal discovery programs and close the Discovery Center of Excellence facility in Birmingham, Alabama (the “Birmingham Closure Plan”). The Birmingham Closure Plan was approved as part of the ongoing strategic evolution to strengthen our rare disease pipeline, following a comprehensive strategic review and scientific diligence of our research capabilities, programs and priorities. The implementation of the Birmingham Closure Plan is expected to be substantially complete by the end of 2026.

Sources of Liquidity
Previous report
Net revenue from sales of ORLADEYO is recorded at net selling price (transaction price), which includes reserves for variable consideration such as (i) estimated government rebates, such as Medicaid and Medicare Part D reimbursements, and estimated managed care rebates, (ii) estimated chargebacks, (iii) estimated costs of co-payment assistance programs, and (iv) product returns. These reserves, representing our best estimates of the amount of consideration to which we are entitled based on the terms of the applicable contracts and statutory requirements, are based on the amounts earned or to be claimed on the related sales and are classified as reductions of accounts receivable if no payments are required of us or a current liability if a payment is required of us. Actual amounts of consideration may differ from our estimates. If actual results vary from estimates, these estimates are adjusted, which would affect net product revenue and earnings in the period such variances become known.
Previous report
The most subjective of these estimates are government and managed care rebates. We contract with group purchasing organizations associated with managed care organizations and participate in certain government programs or, collectively, third-party payors, so that ORLADEYO will be eligible for purchase by, or partial or full reimbursement from, such third-party payors. We estimate the rebates we will provide to third-party payors and deduct these estimated amounts from total gross product revenues at the time the revenues are recognized, resulting in a reduction of product revenue and the establishment of a current liability. We estimate the rebates that we will provide to third-party payors based upon (i) our contracts with these third-party payors, (ii) the contractually mandated discounts applicable to the programs, and (iii) product distribution information obtained from our specialty pharmacy regarding payor mix.

Previous 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 successful commercialization 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. In June 2026, we announced that we would discontinue our internal discovery programs and close our Discovery Center of Excellence facility in Birmingham, Alabama. We plan to focus on identifying and advancing high-value opportunities through external innovation, rigorous scientific evaluation, and disciplined capital allocation. By utilizing our existing commercial capabilities and focusing on rare disease markets, we believe that we can most effectively optimize our costs and strategically allocate resources to support long-term, sustainable growth.

Previous wording
Revenue from sales of ORLADEYO for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 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, but not limited to, 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. In addition, on May 6, 2026, we announced that we identified a manufacturing issue that delayed the initial product fulfillment of the oral pellet formulation of ORLADEYO. On June 29, 2026, we announced that the issue was resolved, and the week of August 3, 2026, we began shipping the ORLADEYO oral pellets in the United States to pediatric patients with HAE aged 2 to <12 years.

Previous wording
Our revenues are difficult to predict and depend on several factors, including those discussed in the “Risk Factors” section in Part II, Item 1A of this report. For example, our revenues depend, in part, on regulatory approval decisions for our products and product candidates, the effectiveness of our and our collaborative partners’ commercialization efforts, market acceptance of our products, particularly ORLADEYO, and the resources dedicated to our products and product candidates by us and our collaborative partners, as well as entering into or modifying licensing agreements for our product candidates. Furthermore, revenues related to our collaborative development activities are dependent upon the progress toward, and the achievement of, developmental milestones by us or our collaborative partners.

Our operating expenses are also difficult to predict and depend primarily on research and development activities, including clinical research activities, and the ongoing requirements of our development programs, as well as the costs of commercialization, drug manufacturing, direction from regulatory agencies and the factors discussed in the “Risk Factors” section in Part II, Item 1A of this report. Management may be able to control the timing and level of research and development and selling, general and administrative expenses, but many of these expenditures will occur irrespective of our actions due to contractually committed activities and/or payments. In addition, in June 2026, we announced the Birmingham Closure Plan (as defined below). While we expect costs associated with the Birmingham Closure Plan to include costs related to contract termination, lease termination, employee termination benefits and severance, among other costs, management’s analysis of the Birmingham Closure Plan’s execution and related impact is still ongoing.
