Alnylam posts first $1B+ product quarter as Q1 2026 EPS $1.51 (+443% YoY) and revenue $1.2B (+96% YoY) beat estimates, reiterates 2026 TTR guidance $4.4–$4.7B
- Q1 2026 results exceeded Zacks consensus estimates of EPS $1.43 and revenue $1.13 billion.
- First-ever $1B+ quarter in product revenue, driven by AMVUTTRA ATTR-CM launch momentum.
- TTR product sales reached $910M, up 6% QoQ and 153% YoY, despite headwinds.
- 2026 TTR guidance of $4.4–$4.7B reiterated, implying steeper growth in later quarters.
- Gross margin fell 5 points YoY to 80% as Sanofi royalties on AMVUTTRA ramped.
- Non-GAAP operating income quadrupled YoY to $339M; third straight quarter of GAAP profitability.
- International TTR revenue outperformed internal expectations despite German price reset, helped by strong Japan launch.
- TRITON-CM nucresiran trial expanding to ~1,750 patients to de-risk low event rates.
- Real-world vutrisiran adherence above 93% and >85% one-year persistence support durable revenue.
- Management downplays impact of future tafamidis generics; strategy not dependent on stabilizer pricing.
- Key investor debates: first vs second-line mix, competitive silencers, and ability to hit guidance.
- Main concern: Meeting aggressive TTR growth ramp amid rising competition and increasing royalty-driven margin pressure.
- Strong quarter, driven by accelerating TTR franchise growth and disciplined but heavy investment in late-stage pipeline.
