Voyager Therapeutics Q3 2022 Earnings Report
Voyager Therapeutics reported financial results for the third quarter of 2022, marked by Pfizer's license of a novel TRACER capsid and advancements in pipeline programs.
Key Takeaways
Voyager Therapeutics reported a net income of $17.6 million for Q3 2022, a significant increase compared to a net loss of $25.1 million for the same period in 2021. This was primarily driven by a substantial increase in collaboration revenue, particularly from Pfizer's option exercise to license a novel capsid from Voyager's TRACER platform.
Pfizer exercised its option to license a novel TRACER capsid for a rare neurologic disease target.
Data presented at ESGCT characterized a novel CNS receptor and demonstrated low-dose potential of TRACER capsids.
Pipeline programs for Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease and ALS are progressing with development candidate selections expected soon.
Voyager's cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities were $131.6 million as of September 30, 2022, which doesn't include the $10 million option exercise payment received in October 2022.
