PTC Therapeutics reports Q2 2026 revenue of $361 million, raises full-year guidance

Sephience sales drove product revenue growth as the company reported net income and advanced its Huntington's disease and Friedreich's ataxia programs.

PTC Therapeutics announced financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, along with a corporate update, in a press release dated July 30, 2026. The company reported total revenue of $361 million, including $239 million of product revenue.1

Revenue from the newly launched drug Sephience (sepiapterin) reached $151.3 million for the second quarter of 2026, a 21% increase compared to the first quarter of 2026.1 Translarna (ataluren) generated $42.2 million in net product revenues, down from $59.5 million in the second quarter of 2025.1 Emflaza (deflazacort) revenue fell to $24.6 million from $36.4 million a year earlier, which the company attributed to continued generic erosion.1

On the pipeline side, PTC reported positive results from the votoplam PIVOT-HD long-term extension study, with enrollment ongoing in the global Phase 3 INVEST-HD study.1 The PIVOT-HD 24-month data showed dose-dependent disease slowing on the cUHDRS scale in Stage 2 participants, reaching 52% at the 10 mg dose level.1 The INVEST-HD trial is run and financed by partner Novartis, which is aiming to enroll about 770 people with early symptomatic disease.1 Initiation of that study triggered a $50.0 million milestone payment from Novartis tied to the first patient dosed in the trial.1

The company also said a study called PROVE-FA, meant to support an NDA resubmission for Friedreich's ataxia treatment vatiquinone, is expected to begin in the third quarter of 2026 and will enroll approximately 120 patients ages 7 to 21.1

PTC raised its full-year 2026 guidance, now expecting total revenue of $1.18 to $1.28 billion, with product revenue guidance raised to $850 to $950 million from $750 to $850 million.1 The company reported net income of $83.5 million for the quarter, compared to a net loss of $64.8 million in the second quarter of 2025.1
