- Full year 2025 Fanapt® net product sales increased by 24% to $117.3 million compared to full year 2024
- Full year 2025 total revenues increased by 9% to $216.1 million compared to full year 2024

WASHINGTON, Feb. 11, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Vanda Pharmaceuticals Inc. (Vanda) (NASDAQ:VNDA) today announced financial and operational results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2025.
"2025 showed strong momentum at Vanda, led by Fanapt, with net product sales up 24% to $117.3 million, driven by a 28% rise in total prescriptions and 149% surge in new-to-brand prescriptions - reflecting accelerating growth in schizophrenia and bipolar I disorder. We await the FDA decision on the Bysanti (milsaperidone) NDA by the February 21, 2026 PDUFA date, which would expand our psychiatry franchise in the global antipsychotic category. This category had a total addressable market estimated at approximately $20 billion in 2025," said Mihael H. Polymeropoulos, M.D., Vanda's President, CEO and Chairman of the Board.
"The FDA approval of NEREUS (tradipitant) is a landmark - the first new oral therapy for motion-induced vomiting prevention in over 40 years - targeting a large addressable population of roughly 65–78 million U.S. adults experiencing symptoms, with tens of millions seeking relief annually. We are preparing for the NEREUS commercial launch and plan to start a Phase III program in the first half of 2026 for its use in preventing vomiting from GLP-1 analogs," continued Dr. Polymeropoulos. "We submitted the imsidolimab BLA in Q4 2025 for generalized pustular psoriasis, a rare orphan condition. With our current franchise - Fanapt, HETLIOZ, HETLIOZ LQ, and PONVORY - we expect 2026 total revenues of $230 to $260 million from these marketed products alone, providing a solid baseline. We look forward to continued growth from this portfolio, with further contributions from the NEREUS launch and potential approvals of Bysanti and imsidolimab."

GAAP Financial Results
Net loss was $141.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2025 compared to net loss of $4.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2024. Diluted net loss per share was $2.39 in the fourth quarter of 2025 compared to diluted net loss per share of $0.08 in the fourth quarter of 2024.
Net loss was $220.5 million for the full year 2025 compared to net loss of $18.9 million for the full year 2024. Diluted net loss per share was $3.74 for the full year 2025 compared to diluted net loss per share of $0.33 for the full year 2024.
Provision for Income Taxes - One-Time, Non-Cash Charge Impact
In the fourth quarter of 2025, Vanda determined that it is not more-likely-than-not that it will realize its existing net deferred tax assets, having reviewed both positive and negative evidence as well as expectations of future taxable income, and recorded a valuation allowance against all its deferred tax assets. As a result, the fourth quarter of 2025 provision for income taxes includes a one-time, non-cash income tax charge of $113.7 million. Excluding this one-time non-cash tax charge, our full year 2025:
- Effective tax rate would have increased to 23%, compared to the reported effective tax rate of negative 59%.
- Net loss would have decreased to $106.8 million, compared to the reported net loss of $220.5 million.
- Diluted net loss per share would have decreased to $1.81, compared to the reported diluted net loss per share of $3.74.

Non-GAAP Financial Information
Vanda believes that the above Non-GAAP financial information provided in this press release can assist investors in understanding and assessing the ongoing economics of Vanda's business and reflect how it manages the business internally and sets operational goals. The Non-GAAP effective tax rate, Non-GAAP net loss and Non-GAAP dilutive EPS exclude the one-time, non-cash valuation allowance income tax charge. Vanda believes that excluding the impact of this one-time, non-cash charge better reflects the recurring economic characteristics of its business, as well as Vanda's use of financial resources and its long-term performance.
These Non-GAAP financial measures, as presented, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies because all companies may not calculate these measures in an identical manner and, therefore, they are not necessarily an accurate measure of comparison between companies.
The presentation of these Non-GAAP financial measures is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for guidance prepared in accordance with GAAP. The principal limitation of these Non-GAAP financial measures is that they exclude significant elements that are required by GAAP to be recorded in Vanda's financial statements. In addition, they are subject to inherent limitations as they reflect the exercise of judgments by management in determining these Non-GAAP financial measures. In order to compensate for these limitations, Vanda presents its Non-GAAP financial information in connection with its GAAP financial information. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of our Non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measure.
