The earnings call highlights strong product development, market expansion, and positive feedback on VYVGART. Despite some uncertainties, the optimistic guidance, strategic pipeline expansion, and growing market penetration suggest a positive outlook. The Q&A session reinforces confidence in product growth and market strategy, with promising updates on trials and potential new indications. However, some management responses were vague, which could temper enthusiasm slightly. Overall, the sentiment leans positive, with potential for stock price appreciation in the short term.
Total product net sales $1.13 billion in Q3 2025, marking a 96% year-over-year growth ($554 million increase). The growth is attributed to the strong performance of VYVGART, particularly in the U.S. market, and the successful launch of the prefilled syringe (PFS).
Product net sales in the U.S. $964 million in Q3 2025, a 20% quarter-over-quarter growth. This growth reflects the impact of investments in the PFS launch earlier this year.
Operating expenses $805 million in Q3 2025, a 5% increase compared to Q2 2025. R&D expenses increased by 9% ($28 million), and SG&A expenses increased by 4% ($11 million). The increase is due to continued investments in growth opportunities.
Operating profit $346 million in Q3 2025. This reflects strong revenue performance and disciplined expense management.

Cash balance $4.3 billion at the end of Q3 2025, representing a nearly $1 billion increase since the beginning of the year.
VYVGART: Delivering impact in 2 blockbuster indications (MG and CIDP). Prefilled syringe approved in most major markets, driving new patient and prescriber adoption.
Pipeline Progress: Entering 2026 with 3 Phase III assets and 4 new molecules in Phase I development by year-end.
Empasiprubart: Now in Phase III development for MMN and CIDP, targeting autoimmune diseases with a selective approach.
ARGX-119: Advanced to Phase III in CMS, designed to restore neuromuscular junction function, with potential applications in ALS and SMA.
U.S. Market: Product net sales of $964 million in the U.S., reflecting a 20% quarter-over-quarter growth.
Global Expansion: PFS approved in most major markets, driving growth outside the U.S. with $94 million in sales across rest of the world markets.
Payer Access: Strengthened payer access, enabling more patients to initiate treatment.
Manufacturing Expansion: Expanded collaboration with FUJIFILM through a new manufacturing facility in North Carolina to strengthen global supply chain.
Financial Performance: Achieved $1.13 billion in total product net sales in Q3 2025, marking a 19% growth from the previous quarter and 96% year-over-year growth.
Cost Management: Operating expenses increased by 5% compared to the previous quarter, with combined R&D and SG&A expenses expected to land between $2.6 billion and $2.7 billion for the year.
Vision 2030: Focused on long-term value creation with investments in pipeline innovation and scaling operations.
Indication Prioritization: Stopped development of empasiprubart in dermatomyositis and efgartigimod in lupus nephritis to focus on high-value indications like Graves' disease.
Future Growth: Preparing for 5 registrational readouts in 2026, including Ocular MG, Myositis, TED, MMN, and ITP.
Operational challenges in study enrollment: The company faced operational challenges in enrolling participants for the empasiprubart study in dermatomyositis, leading to the decision to stop development in this indication.
Decision not to advance efgartigimod in lupus nephritis: Based on Phase II data, the company decided not to proceed with a registrational study for efgartigimod in lupus nephritis, indicating potential limitations in efficacy or strategic prioritization.
Scaling operations and supply chain risks: The company is expanding its operations in the U.S., including a new manufacturing facility in North Carolina. This expansion could pose risks related to scaling operations and ensuring a robust global supply chain.
Regulatory and clinical trial risks: The company has multiple Phase III readouts planned, and any unfavorable outcomes could impact its strategic objectives and market potential.
Market competition and adoption challenges: While VYVGART is performing well, the company faces competitive pressures to maintain its leadership in MG and CIDP, especially as it seeks to expand into new indications.
Vision 2030: The company has set a bold growth agenda anchored in its long-term roadmap for value creation, Vision 2030, which includes multiple pathways for sustained growth and long-term value for patients and shareholders.
VYVGART Expansion: Plans to file for a label expansion for VYVGART to include all three seronegative subgroups (MuSK-positive, LRP4 positive, and triple seronegative) based on positive clinical data.
Phase III Developments: The company will enter 2026 with three Phase III assets: efgartigimod, empasiprubart, and ARGX-119, each representing significant opportunities in autoimmune and neuromuscular diseases.
New Molecules and Pipeline: Four new molecules are expected to enter Phase I development by year-end, with more expected to advance from 20 active IIP programs, representing potential breakthroughs in immunology.
Graves' Disease Study: Plans to initiate registrational studies for Graves' disease early next year, moving directly into Phase III.
Registrational Readouts: Five registrational readouts are expected next year, including Ocular MG, Myositis, TED, MMN, and ITP, each with strong commercial potential and robust clinical endpoints.
Manufacturing Expansion: Expanded collaboration with FUJIFILM through a new manufacturing facility in North Carolina to strengthen the global supply chain and meet growing demand for VYVGART and future pipeline therapies.
Rheumatology and Endocrinology Expansion: Plans to expand into rheumatology and endocrinology with myositis and TED studies, leveraging strong biologic rationale and clinical data.
