CONSHOHOCKEN, Pa., Nov. 04, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Madrigal Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ: MDGL), a biopharmaceutical company focused on delivering novel therapeutics for metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH), today reports third-quarter 2025 financial results and provides corporate updates.

Bill Sibold, Chief Executive Officer of Madrigal, stated: “Six quarters into Rezdiffra’s launch, we continue to execute on all fronts. Most gratifying is the impact we’re having, with more than 29,500 patients on therapy and more than 10,000 healthcare providers prescribing Rezdiffra. With quarterly sales now annualizing above $1 billion, Rezdiffra is quickly becoming one of the most successful specialty launches in the industry and we’re still early, with greater than 90 percent of our target population yet to be treated. As we look ahead to 2026, Rezdiffra is poised for growth and continued broad, first-line access for patients.”

Sibold continued: “We’re advancing a focused strategy to extend our leadership by building a pipeline of complementary therapies. We recently added an oral GLP-1 that we intend to develop in combination with Rezdiffra to drive greater efficacy while maintaining strong tolerability. Like other large therapeutic areas, we believe MASH will require multiple mechanisms and tailored treatment regimens – and we’re well-positioned to lead that evolution. Alongside this, our pivotal Phase 3 Rezdiffra trial in F4c continues to advance and could make Rezdiffra the first approved treatment in compensated MASH cirrhosis. With U.S. patent protection for Rezdiffra into 2045, we can thoughtfully invest, innovate and lead the fight against MASH for years to come.”

Third-Quarter 2025 and Recent Corporate Updates

• Closed transaction to license global rights to oral GLP-1 (MGL-2086) to combine with Rezdiffra
  • Madrigal completed the licensing agreement with CSPC Pharma for an oral glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist and orforglipron derivative. The global license agreement supports Madrigal’s strategy to develop innovative combination treatments for MASH, anchored by its foundational therapy, Rezdiffra.
  • MGL-2086 (formerly SYH2086) is expected to enter the clinic in the first half of 2026.
    
• New Orange Book listed Rezdiffra patent provides protection into 2045
  
  • A new patent entitled, “Methods for treating a fatty liver disease” (U.S. Patent No. 12,377,104) that covers the FDA-approved use of Rezdiffra with claims directed to Rezdiffra’s commercial weight-threshold dosing regimen as prescribed in the FDA-approved label was listed in the FDA’s Approved Drug Products with Therapeutic Equivalence Evaluations, commonly known as the Orange Book, in August 2025.
• Launched Rezdiffra in Germany following European Commission approval
  • Following European Commission (EC) conditional marketing authorization in August, Madrigal launched Rezdiffra in Germany in September. The EC conditional marketing authorization was based on positive results from the Madrigal’s pivotal Phase 3 MAESTRO-NASH trial demonstrating that Rezdiffra reduced fibrosis, resolved MASH and improved key noninvasive tests. Rezdiffra is the first and only approved therapy in the European Union (EU) for MASH.
• Madrigal to have strong presence at upcoming AASLD Liver Meeting
  • Madrigal will have a significant presence at the upcoming American Association for the Study of Liver Disease (AASLD) Liver Meeting taking place Nov. 7-11 in Washington D.C.; 15 abstracts have been accepted, including two oral presentations and two posters of distinction.

Third-Quarter 2025 Financial Results

• Total Revenues: Third-quarter 2025 net revenues were $287.3 million, compared to $62.2 million in the comparable prior year period. The increase is due to increased demand for Rezdiffra.
• Operating Expenses: Third-quarter 2025 operating expenses were $401.2 million, compared to $178.5 million in the comparable prior year period.
  • Cost of Sales: Third-quarter 2025 cost of sales was $18.1 million, compared to $2.2 million in the comparable prior year period.
  • R&D Expense: Third-quarter 2025 R&D expense was $174.0 million, compared to $68.7 million in the comparable prior year period. The increase was primarily due to the upfront expense for CSPC, partially offset by a reduction in expenses related to clinical trials.
  • SG&A Expense: Third-quarter 2025 SG&A expense was $209.1 million compared to $107.6 million in the comparable prior year period. The increase was primarily due to increases in commercial activities for Rezdiffra including corresponding increases in headcount to support commercialization efforts.
• Interest Income: Third-quarter 2025 interest income was $10.3 million compared to $13.0 million in the comparable prior year period. The decrease was primarily due to lower interest rates in 2025.
• Interest Expense: Third-quarter 2025 interest expense was $7.5 million compared to $3.7 million in the comparable prior year period. The increase was primarily due to a higher average outstanding principal balance after entering into the Financing Agreement.
• Cash, Cash Equivalents, Restricted Cash and Marketable Securities: As of Sept. 30, 2025, Madrigal had cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash, and marketable securities of $1.1 billion, compared to $931.3 million as of Dec. 31, 2024. The increase was primarily due to the Company entering into a senior secured credit facility managed by Blue Owl Capital that consisted of a $350 million initial term loan funded at closing, a portion of which was used to repay all outstanding obligations under Madrigal’s then-outstanding loan facility, offset by funding of operations.

Conference Call and Webcast
At 8 a.m. EST today, Nov. 4, Madrigal will host a webcast to review its financial and operating results and provide a general business update.

An archived webcast will be available on the Madrigal website following the event.

About MASH
Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH), formerly known as nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), is a serious liver disease that can progress to cirrhosis, liver failure, liver cancer, need for liver transplantation, and premature mortality. MASH is the leading cause of liver transplantation in women and the second leading cause of all liver transplantation in the U.S. It is the fastest-growing indication for liver transplantation in Europe.

Once patients progress to MASH with moderate to advanced liver fibrosis (consistent with stages F2 to F3 fibrosis), the risk of adverse liver outcomes increases dramatically: these patients have a 10 to 17 times higher risk of liver-related mortality as compared to patients without fibrosis. Madrigal is focused on reaching approximately 315,000 patients with moderate to advanced fibrosis who are under the care of liver specialists in the U.S.

Patients with MASH who progress to cirrhosis face a 42 times higher risk of liver-related mortality, underscoring the need to treat MASH before complications of cirrhosis develop. An estimated 245,000 patients with compensated MASH cirrhosis (consistent with F4c fibrosis) are currently under the care of liver specialists in the U.S.

As disease awareness improves and disease prevalence increases, the number of diagnosed patients with F2 to F4c MASH is expected to grow.
