COPENHAGEN, Denmark, May 07, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Ascendis Pharma A/S (Nasdaq: ASND) today announced financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2026, and provided a business update.
“The FDA approval of YUVIWEL, our third consecutive TransCon product, and the robust patient uptake for YORVIPATH are cementing our position as a leading global biopharma,” said Jan Mikkelsen, President and Chief Executive Officer of Ascendis Pharma. “Our strong focus on science and making a meaningful difference for patients will continue to be the fundamental driver for our success.”
Select Highlights & Anticipated 2026 Milestones
- YORVIPATH
(palopegteriparatide, developed as TransCon PTH)- YORVIPATH revenue for the first quarter of 2026 totaled €197 million, which for the U.S. includes normal seasonality and the temporary impact of additional patients supported by free drug, as well as a one-time impact in Europe Direct related to expanded market access.
- In the U.S., more than 1,000 new patient enrollments in the first quarter of 2026.
- As of March 31, 2026, more than 6,300 unique patient enrollments by more than 2,700 prescribing healthcare providers since launch in the U.S.
- Outside the U.S., continued expansion of commercial launches with full reimbursement. Now available commercially or through named patient programs in 35 countries.
- Ongoing label expansion trials through PaTHway60 (adults) and PaTHway Adolescent.
- YUVIWEL
(navepegritide, developed as TransCon CNP)- Received U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA) accelerated approval, indicated to increase linear growth in children 2 years of age and older with achondroplasia with open epiphyses.
- The FDA granted orphan drug exclusivity for YUVIWEL, which will run through February 27, 2033.
- As of May 1, 2026, more than 60 unique patient enrollments by more than 35 prescribing healthcare providers since U.S. commercial availability in April 2026.
- Marketing Authorisation Application remains under review by the European Medicines Agency, with a decision anticipated in the fourth quarter of 2026.
-
- Label expansion trial in infants with achondroplasia, reACHin, is ongoing with enrollment completion anticipated in the third quarter of 2026.
- Phase 3 trial planned to investigate TransCon CNP monotherapy for the treatment of hypochondroplasia in the second half of the year.
- SKYTROFA
(lonapegsomatropin, developed as TransCon hGH)
- SKYTROFA revenue for the first quarter of 2026 totaled €44 million.
- Announced Week 52 data from the Phase 2 New InsiGHTS Trial in Turner syndrome that demonstrated comparable efficacy and safety to daily somatropin.
- Ongoing Phase 3 HighLiGHts basket trial across a range of established growth disorders including idiopathic short stature (ISS), SHOX deficiency, Turner syndrome, and small for gestational age (SGA).
- TransCon CNP + TransCon hGH Combination Therapy
(navepegritide plus lonapegsomatropin)- Announced Phase 2 COACH Trial Week 52 topline results demonstrating mean annualized growth velocity that exceeded the 97th percentile of average stature children, improvements in body proportionality, and a safety profile consistent with TransCon CNP and TransCon hGH monotherapies.
- Announced additional Week 52 results from COACH demonstrating meaningful benefits beyond linear growth, including improvements in spinal canal dimensions and lower limb alignment, along with unprecedented improvements in arm span compared to monotherapy.
- Interim Week 78 data from COACH expected in the second quarter of 2026 with Week 104 data expected around year end.
- Oncology Program
(onvapegleukin alfa)- In the ongoing Phase 1/2 IL-BELIEVE Trial, TransCon IL-2 β/γ in combination with paclitaxel demonstrated improved median overall survival (OS) up to 10 months from 6-7 months for historical controls, with a generally well-tolerated safety profile in patients with late-stage platinum-resistant ovarian cancer, validating the science behind TransCon IL-2 β/γ.
- As further internal oncology development does not align with our strategic focus, we have decided to discontinue internal development of TransCon IL-2 β/γ in Oncology and will explore other ways to maximize the value of this asset.
Key Financial Highlights
- Total revenue for the first quarter of 2026 was €247 million, compared to €101 million during the same period in 2025. The year-over-year increase in revenue was primarily attributable to an increase in product revenue from YORVIPATH.
- Operating profit for the first quarter of 2026 totaled €25 million, reflecting a margin of 10.1%. On a non-IFRS basis, operating profit was €55 million*, reflecting a margin of 22.4%*.
- Net profit for the first quarter of 2026 totaled €629 million, or €9.75 per diluted share, including the recognition of previously unrecognized deferred tax assets of €679 million. On a non-IFRS basis, net profit was €18 million*, or €0.27 per diluted share*.
- As of March 31, 2026, Ascendis Pharma had cash and cash equivalents totaling €573 million, which includes the impact of repurchases under the previously announced share repurchase program of €52 million and the net settlement of certain Restricted Stock Units for €8 million, compared to cash and cash equivalents totaling €616 million as of December 31, 2025.
- Subsequent to March 31, 2026:

- On May 6, 2026, Ascendis redeemed all $575 million aggregate principal amount of its outstanding 2.25% convertible notes due 2028. Within the redemption period, all holders of the convertible notes surrendered their notes for conversion, whereupon the Company delivered 3,635,813 ordinary shares, together with cash in lieu of any fractional shares. The conversion resulted in the settlement of the current liabilities of convertible notes, comprising borrowings and derivative liabilities totaling €733 million as of March 31, 2026. The carrying amount as of the settlement date will be reclassified to equity in the second quarter of 2026.
- Entered into agreement to sell its Rare Pediatric Disease Priority Review Voucher (PRV) to an undisclosed buyer for $187.5 million in cash, before transaction-related expenses. The PRV was awarded by the FDA upon approval of YUVIWEL in February 2026. The transaction is subject to customary closing conditions and is expected to close in the second quarter of 2026.

First Quarter 2026 Financial Results
Total revenue for the first quarter of 2026 was €247 million, compared to €101 million during the same period in 2025. The year-over-year increase in revenue was primarily attributable to an increase in product revenue from YORVIPATH.

Research and development expenses for the first quarter of 2026 were €59 million, compared to €87 million during the same period in 2025. The decrease was driven primarily by the completion of certain clinical trials and development activities within our Endocrinology Rare Disease and Oncology pipeline and the first quarter of 2026 being positively impacted by a reversal of prior period write-downs of pre-launch inventories related to YUVIWEL.
Selling, general, and administrative expenses for the first quarter of 2026 were €145 million, compared to €101 million during the same period in 2025. The increase was primarily due to the impact from commercial expansion, including global launch activities.
Total operating expenses for the first quarter of 2026 were €204 million compared to €188 million during the same period in 2025.
Operating profit for the first quarter of 2026 was €25 million, compared to an operating loss of €104 million during the same period in 2025. The increase was primarily driven by the increase in product revenue.
Net finance expenses for the first quarter of 2026 were €63 million, compared to €16 million during the same period in 2025. The increase was primarily driven by non-cash fair-value remeasurement of derivative liabilities associated with our convertible notes.
Income taxes for the first quarter of 2026 included the recognition of previously unrecognized deferred tax assets of €679 million.
For the first quarter of 2026, Ascendis Pharma reported net profit of €629 million, or €10.20 per share basic and €9.75 per share (diluted), compared to a net loss of €95 million, or €1.58 per share (basic and diluted), for the same period in 2025. Net profit for the first quarter of 2026 included the recognition of previously unrecognized deferred tax assets of €679 million.
Cash flows used in operating activities for the first quarter of 2026 were €8 million compared to €14 million used during the same period in 2025. The change primarily reflects the prior-year period benefiting from the $100 million upfront payment received under our exclusive license agreement with Novo Nordisk, which did not recur in the current period, while the current period reflects improved operating performance offset by working capital build.
As of March 31, 2026, Ascendis Pharma had cash and cash equivalents totaling €573 million, compared to €616 million as of December 31, 2025. As of March 31, 2026, Ascendis Pharma had 62,376,846 ordinary shares outstanding, including 265,251 held by the Company.
Beginning with the first quarter of 2026, Ascendis Pharma is introducing supplemental non-IFRS financial measures that management believes will help investors evaluate the Company’s underlying operating performance from period to period and enhance comparability against peer companies. The non-IFRS measures presented are not a substitute for, and should be considered together with, the comparable IFRS measures. See the table below on page 14 for specific reconciling items.
For the first quarter of 2026, non-IFRS operating profit was €55 million, compared to a non-IFRS operating loss of €79 million for the same period in 2025.
For the first quarter of 2026, non-IFRS net profit was €18 million, or €0.27 earnings per diluted share, compared to a non-IFRS net loss of €73 million, or €1.22 loss per diluted share, for the same period in 2025.

Non-IFRS Financial Measures
In addition to the financial information prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board and as adopted by the European Union, this press release contains certain non-IFRS financial measures, including Non-IFRS Operating Profit/(Loss), Non-IFRS Net Profit/(Loss), Non-IFRS operating profit/(loss) margin, and Non-IFRS diluted earnings per share (“Non-IFRS Diluted EPS”). These non-IFRS measures are provided as supplemental information and should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for or superior to, the comparable measures prepared in accordance with IFRS. Management believes these non-IFRS measures support management's, analysts' and investors' overall understanding of the Company’s underlying financial performance and trends and facilitate comparisons among current and past periods.
Since non-IFRS measures do not have standardized definitions and meanings, they may differ from the non-IFRS measures used by other companies, which reduces their usefulness as comparative financial measures. Because of these limitations, you should consider these adjusted financial measures alongside other IFRS financial measures. Because these non-IFRS measures are not prepared in accordance with IFRS, they should not be viewed as superior to IFRS reported measures, nor should they be used on their own or as replacements for the IFRS financial information included in this press release. Additionally, our non-IFRS measures may differ from similarly labeled measures used by other companies due to variations in calculation methods or the size and nature of adjusted items. Investors should note that several of the items excluded from these non-IFRS measures have been recognized in prior periods and may continue to be recognized in future periods.
The Company reports Non-IFRS Operating Profit/(Loss), Non-IFRS Net Profit /(Loss), Non-IFRS operating profit/(loss) margin and Non-IFRS Diluted EPS as non-IFRS measures, which exclude the following specified items:
(i) Share-based compensation expense. Although share-based compensation is a recurring expense, the Company excludes it from non-IFRS measures because the amount and timing of recognition depend on the value of the underlying equity instruments, which can fluctuate based on factors unrelated to the Company’s operating performance during the period.
(ii) Share of profit/(loss) of associates. The Company excludes its share of the profit or loss of equity-method investees because these amounts are not within the control of the Company and do not reflect the Company’s core operating performance.
(iii) Fair-value remeasurement of derivative liabilities related to the Company’s convertible notes. The Company excludes the fair-value remeasurement of derivative liabilities associated with its convertible notes because these amounts depend on movements in the Company’s share price and other market inputs and are not indicative of the Company’s underlying operating performance.
(iv) Recognition of previously unrecognized deferred tax assets. The Company excludes the one-time recognition of previously unrecognized deferred tax assets because this item reflects a reassessment of the recoverability of historical tax attributes rather than the Company’s current period operating performance.
Income taxes related to the foregoing items are adjusted accordingly, considering the individual impact of each item, the relevant tax jurisdiction, applicable tax rates, and the deductibility of the item.
For further details regarding valuation of derivative liabilities, and the recognition of previously unrecognized deferred tax assets, please refer to “Note 3 – Significant Accounting Judgements and Estimates,” contained in our Interim Report on Form 6-K, for the period ended March 31, 2026 and “Note 3 – Significant Accounting Judgements and Estimates,” contained in our Annual Report on Form 20-F, for the year ended December 31, 2025.
The following table provides a reconciliation of the most directly comparable IFRS measures to Non-IFRS Operating Profit/(Loss), Non-IFRS Net Profit/(Loss) and Non-IFRS Diluted EPS.
