Key Financial Performance
Revenue BioMarin reported total revenue of $620 million for Q1 2026, representing a 12% increase year-over-year. This growth was driven by strong sales of VOXZOGO and PALYNZIQ, as well as continued uptake of ROCTAVIAN in Europe.
Net Income Net income for Q1 2026 was $120 million, up 20% compared to the same period last year. The increase was attributed to higher revenue and improved operational efficiencies.
Research and Development Expenses R&D expenses were $180 million, a 5% increase year-over-year. This was due to ongoing investments in late-stage clinical programs and early-stage pipeline development.
Selling, General, and Administrative Expenses SG&A expenses totaled $150 million, a 3% increase from Q1 2025. The rise was primarily due to expanded commercial activities for new product launches.
