BURLINGAME, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Innoviva, Inc. (NASDAQ: INVA) (“Innoviva” or the “Company”), a diversified biopharmaceutical company with a core royalties portfolio, a leading critical care and infectious disease platform known as Innoviva Specialty Therapeutics (“IST”), and a portfolio of strategic investments in healthcare assets, today reported financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2025, and highlighted select corporate progress and achievements.
“2025 marked an excellent year for Innoviva, demonstrating strength across all areas of our business, with 15% revenue growth to over $400 million and net income exceeding $270 million. Our royalty business continued to provide stable and resilient cash flow, while IST generated 47% year-over-year U.S. sales growth to $119 million,” said Pavel Raifeld, Chief Executive Officer of Innoviva. “We expanded our commercial portfolio with the successful mid-2025 launch of ZEVTERA in the U.S., received nominations for two of our products for the prestigious 2025 Prix Galien USA Award, and ended the year on an exciting note with the FDA approval of our fifth product, NUZOLVENCE, a single-dose oral treatment for uncomplicated urogenital gonorrhea that addresses a critical public health challenge in light of the global rise of gonococcal drug resistance. We are excited about our growth prospects and anticipate $150 million or more in IST U.S. net product sales in 2026.”
“Our portfolio of strategic assets remains a key platform for long-term growth and differentiation, demonstrated by significant advances and value creation at Armata Pharmaceuticals. Overall, we remain a well-capitalized company with multiple value-accretive capital deployment opportunities in our current business, novel assets, and capital strategies, including a recently announced $125 million share repurchase program. We look forward to multiple inflection points across Innoviva’s portfolio in the year ahead,” concluded Mr. Raifeld.
