Fate Therapeutics announces Q3 earnings per share of 27 cents, below consensus estimate of 28 cents.
Reports Q3 revenue $1.741M, consensus $1.68M. "The potentially transformative impact of FT819 in lupus is at an inflection point as we enter the final quarter of the year with accelerated advancements in our autoimmune and oncology programs," said Bob Valamehr, Ph.D., M.B.A., President and Chief Executive Officer of Fate Therapeutics. "The meaningful therapeutic and favorable safety profile of FT819 seen to date in preliminary clinical data combined with its broad patient accessibility demonstrates that CAR T-cell therapy can be delivered in a community setting, broadening reach for a wide range of patients with limited treatment options. Our focus remains on driving enrollment and expanding access for patients with lupus and other autoimmune diseases as we advance toward our planned registration study in 2026. In parallel, we continue to strengthen our iPSC platform and next-generation CAR T-cell programs, leveraging our Sword and Shield(TM) technology to expand the reach of off-the-shelf cell therapies, including FT836 with its unique ability to target a broad array of cancers. Operationally, we remain disciplined, with a well-capitalized balance sheet that is intended to fund the company's operations through 2027."
