Third Quarter 2025 Financial Results

Total revenue for the third quarter of 2025 was $131.9 million, an increase of 14% compared to $115.9 million reported in the third quarter of 2024. Testing revenue was $127.8 million, an increase of 17% compared to $109.5 million in the third quarter of 2024, driven by growth in our Decipher Prostate and Afirma tests. Product revenue was $3.3 million, an increase of 4% compared to $3.2 million in the third quarter of 2024. Biopharmaceutical and other revenue was $0.8 million, a decrease compared to $3.1 million in the third quarter of 2024 given the restructuring and liquidation proceedings of Veracyte SAS.

Total gross margin for the third quarter of 2025 was 69%, compared to 68% in the third quarter of 2024. Non-GAAP gross margin was 73%, compared to 71% in the third quarter of 2024.

Operating expenses were $68.3 million for the third quarter of 2025. Non-GAAP operating expenses grew 2% to $58.6 million compared to $57.6 million in the third quarter of 2024.

Net income for the third quarter of 2025 was $19.1 million, an improvement of 26% compared to the third quarter of 2024, including a $6.7 million loss from the deconsolidation of the Veracyte SAS entity.

Adjusted EBITDA for the third quarter of 2025 was $39.7 million, an improvement of 45% compared to the third quarter of 2024, representing 30.1% of revenue compared to 23.6% of revenue in the same period of 2024.

2025 Financial Outlook

The company is raising full-year 2025 testing revenue guidance to $484 million to $487 million, or 16% year-over-year growth, from prior guidance of $477 million to $483 million. Adjusting for the impact of the paused Envisia test, the guidance implies 17% to 18% year-over-year testing revenue growth. The company is also raising full-year 2025 total revenue guidance to $506 million to $510 million, or 14% year-over-year growth, from prior guidance of $496 million to $504 million.

Additionally, the company is raising guidance for 2025 adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of revenue to over 25% from the 23.5% prior guidance.

The company is unable to provide a quantitative reconciliation of expected adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of revenue to the most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP measure without unreasonable effort, because of the inherent difficulty in accurately forecasting the occurrence and financial impact of the various adjusting items necessary for such reconciliations that have not yet occurred, that are dependent on various factors, are out of the company’s control, or that cannot be reasonably predicted. Such adjustments include, but are not limited to, acquisition-related expenses, and other adjustments. Any associated estimate of these items and their impact on GAAP performance for the guidance period could vary materially. For more information on the non-GAAP financial measures, please refer to the section titled "Note Regarding Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures" at the end of this press release.

About Zidesamtinib and the ARROS-1 Phase 1/2 Clinical Trial

Zidesamtinib is an investigational, novel brain-penetrant ROS1-selective inhibitor created with the aim to overcome limitations observed with currently available ROS1 inhibitors. Zidesamtinib is designed to remain active in tumors that have developed resistance to currently available ROS1 inhibitors, including tumors with treatment-emergent ROS1 mutations such as G2032R. In addition, zidesamtinib is designed for central nervous system (CNS) penetrance to improve treatment options for patients with brain metastases, and to avoid inhibition of the structurally related tropomyosin receptor kinase (TRK) family. Together, these characteristics have the potential to avoid TRK-related CNS adverse events seen with dual TRK/ROS1 inhibitors and to drive deep, durable responses for patients across all lines of therapy. Zidesamtinib has received breakthrough therapy designation for the treatment of patients with ROS1-positive metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who have been previously treated with 2 or more ROS1 tyrosine kinase inhibitors and orphan drug designation for ROS1-positive NSCLC.

Zidesamtinib is currently being investigated in the ARROS-1 trial (NCT05118789), a first-in-human Phase 1/2 clinical trial for patients with advanced ROS1-positive NSCLC and other solid tumors. The completed Phase 1 portion enrolled ROS1-positive NSCLC patients who previously received at least one ROS1 TKI, or patients with other ROS1-positive solid tumors who had been previously treated. The Phase 1 portion of the trial was designed to evaluate the overall safety and tolerability of zidesamtinib, with additional objectives including determination of the recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D), characterization of the pharmacokinetic profile, and evaluation of preliminary anti-tumor activity. The ongoing global, single arm, open label Phase 2 portion is designed with registrational intent for TKI-naïve and TKI pre-treated patients with advanced ROS1-positive NSCLC. Nuvalent completed its rolling NDA submission for zidesamtinib in TKI pre-treated patients with advanced ROS1-positive NSCLC in the third quarter of 2025 and continues to engage with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) on potential opportunities for line-agnostic expansion.

"As we near the end of 2025, we see broad-based momentum across our growing portfolio of clinical-stage hematology and liver-targeted genetic disease base editing programs," said John Evans, chief executive officer at Beam. "Our alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency program, the first clinical program to directly correct a disease-causing mutation in vivo, remains a top priority, and we’re pleased with the continued enrollment and dosing progress in the BEAM-302 Phase 1/2 trial. We look forward to providing a broad update on the program in early 2026 with new clinical data and next steps to advance BEAM-302 to patients. In sickle cell disease, we look forward to sharing updated data from the BEACON trial of BEAM-101 at the ASH (Free ASH Whitepaper) meeting in December, where we aim to continue to demonstrate a differentiated manufacturing and clinical profile in these patients with recurrent severe VOCs. We have also initiated dosing of the BEAM-103 antibody from our ESCAPE platform, which we believe can play an important role in next wave therapies for sickle cell disease."

Mr. Evans continued, "In addition, we are thrilled for the Orbital Therapeutics team following its proposed acquisition by Bristol Myers Squibb, indicating the significant potential of Orbital’s platform and pipeline. Beam contributed capabilities and technology in mRNA and targeted lipid nanoparticles to Orbital, and this outcome further validates our innovative platform strategy to unlock additional shareholder value in non-core areas and accelerate the creation of new medicines for patients."

Third Quarter 2025 and Recent Progress


Updated data from the BEACON Phase 1/2 clinical trial of BEAM-101 in patients with sickle cell disease (SCD) were accepted for presentation at the upcoming American Society of Hematology (ASH) (Free ASH Whitepaper) Annual Meeting, taking place December 6-9, 2025, in Orlando, Fla.

The first subject was dosed in a Phase 1 healthy volunteer clinical trial of BEAM-103, an anti-CD117 monoclonal antibody (mAb) developed as part of the company’s ESCAPE (Engineered Stem Cell Antibody Evasion) platform. ESCAPE represents a potential alternative to genotoxic conditioning regimens in stem cell transplantation, potentially avoiding toxicity challenges associated with currently available conditioning regimens for patients with SCD and beta-thalassemia.

In the Phase 1/2 study of BEAM-302 in alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency (AATD), dosing has commenced in the multi-dose cohort evaluating two 60 mg doses administered eight weeks apart in Part A of the trial, designed to evaluate AATD patients with lung disease. In addition, the first patient was dosed in the first cohort in Part B of the trial, designed to evaluate AATD patients with mild to moderate liver disease with or without lung disease.


In August, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) granted Regenerative Medicine Advanced Therapy (RMAT) designation to BEAM-101 for the treatment of SCD. The designation is designed to support the development and evaluation of regenerative medicines, with the intention of addressing serious or life-threatening diseases that have unmet medical needs.

In October, Bristol Myers Squibb announced a definitive agreement under which they will acquire Beam collaborator Orbital Therapeutics for $1.5 billion in cash. As of the announcement, Beam held 75 million shares of Orbital common stock, which represented a fully diluted ownership stake of approximately 17%.1
Key Anticipated Milestones

Liver-targeted Genetic Disease Franchise


Beam expects to report data from the dose-escalation portions of Part A and Part B of the BEAM-302 Phase 1/2 trial and provide a clinical development update in early 2026.

"Our momentum is accelerating across the ziftomenib program and our broader precision oncology pipeline," said Troy Wilson, Ph.D., J.D., President and Chief Executive Officer. "With the initiation of the pivotal KOMET-017 Phase 3 trials, we are executing a robust, focused development strategy to unlock ziftomenib’s best-in-class potential across the continuum of unmet need in AML. Bolstered by a strong balance sheet and our productive partnership with Kyowa Kirin, we are well positioned to advance ziftomenib toward commercialization, accelerate our frontline Phase 3 trials and create enduring value across our pipeline for patients and other key stakeholders."

Recent Highlights

In September 2025, we announced the first patient was dosed in the Phase 3 KOMET-017 trial of ziftomenib in frontline AML (NCT07007312). KOMET-017 comprises two global, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trials to evaluate ziftomenib in combination with both intensive and non-intensive chemotherapy regimens in patients with newly diagnosed NPM1-m or KMT2A-rearranged (KMT2A-r) AML.
In October 2025, we announced the first patient was dosed in the FLT3 inhibitor cohort of the KOMET-007 clinical trial (NCT05735184). The cohort evaluates ziftomenib combined with the FDA-approved FLT3 inhibitor, quizartinib, plus cytarabine and daunorubicin (7+3) induction chemotherapy in patients with newly diagnosed AML harboring FLT3-ITD / NPM1 co-mutations.
In September 2025, the Journal of Clinical Oncology published the full results from the pivotal KOMET-001 clinical trial (NCT04067336) evaluating ziftomenib as a monotherapy in adult patients with R/R NPM1-m AML. (Reprint)
Two abstracts featuring clinical data from ziftomenib in combination with venetoclax / azacitidine (ven/aza) chemotherapy in patients with newly diagnosed and R/R NPM1-m or KMT2A-r AML were accepted for oral presentation at the 67th Annual Meeting of the American Society of Hematology (ASH) (Free ASH Whitepaper) to be held in December 2025. (Abstract ID 764; Abstract ID 766)
In October 2025, preliminary clinical data were presented at ESMO (Free ESMO Whitepaper) 2025, highlighting the potential of Kura’s farnesyl transferase inhibitors, darlifarnib (KO-2806) and tipifarnib, to enhance the anti-tumor activity of PI3Ka inhibitors, KRAS inhibitors and antiangiogenic tyrosine kinase inhibitors across a range of diverse tumor types by addressing a common resistance pathway.

Data from the FIT-001 Phase 1 trial evaluating darlifarnib and cabozantinib in patients with renal cell carcinoma (RCC) reflect a manageable safety profile across multiple dose levels of each agent, including at the full label dose of cabozantinib. Antitumor activity was observed across all dose combinations tested, including in patients with prior exposure to cabozantinib. The objective response rate (ORR) was 33-50% in ccRCC, and 17-50% in patients with prior cabozantinib exposure. (Poster)
Data from the KURRENT-HN trial evaluating tipifarnib and alpelisib in patients with PIK3CA-dependent HNSCC also reflect a manageable safety profile. An ORR of 47% was observed at a dose of tipifarnib 1200 mg/day and alpelisib 250 mg/day. Robust antitumor activity was observed in a heavily pretreated patient population where clinical benefit is not expected from either alpelisib or tipifarnib as monotherapy. (Poster)

In October and November 2025, Kura received two $30 million milestone payments under its agreement with Kyowa Kirin in connection with first patient dosing in the pivotal KOMET-017 clinical trial of ziftomenib with intensive and non-intensive chemotherapy in patients with frontline AML.

Forecasted Milestones

Continued regulatory interactions with the FDA ahead of the November 30, 2025 PDUFA target action date for ziftomenib as a monotherapy for adult patients with relapsed or refractory NPM1-m AML.
Present preliminary clinical data in newly diagnosed NPM1-m AML and updated clinical data in R/R NPM1-m and KMT2A-r AML from KOMET-007 cohorts evaluating ziftomenib in combination with ven/aza at ASH (Free ASH Whitepaper) Annual Meeting to be held in December 2025.
Present preliminary data from the KOMET-008 cohort evaluating ziftomenib in combination with the FLT3 inhibitor gilteritinib in patients with R/R NPM1-m AML in 2026.
Initiate FIT-001 Phase 1b expansion cohorts of darlifarnib and cabozantinib in patients with advanced RCC in the first half of 2026.
Present updated dose-escalation data from the combination of darlifarnib and cabozantinib in patients with advanced RCC in 2026.
Present preliminary clinical data from the combination of darlifarnib and adagrasib in patients with KRASG12C-mutated solid tumor indications in 2026.

Financial Results

Collaboration revenue from our Kyowa Kirin partnership for the third quarter of 2025 was $20.8 million, compared to no revenue for the third quarter of 2024.
Research and development expenses for the third quarter of 2025 were $67.9 million, compared to $41.7 million for the third quarter of 2024.
General and administrative expenses for the third quarter of 2025 were $32.8 million, compared to $18.2 million for the third quarter of 2024.
Net loss for the third quarter of 2025 was $74.1 million, compared to a net loss of $54.4 million for the third quarter of 2024. Net loss for the third quarter included non-cash share-based compensation expense of $11.0 million, compared to $8.3 million for the same period in 2024.
As adjusted for the two $30 million clinical trial milestone payments earned under our collaboration agreement with Kyowa Kirin, Kura had, on a pro forma basis, cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments of $609.7 million as of September 30, 2025.
Based on our current plans, we believe that our cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments as of September 30, 2025 will be sufficient to enable us to fund our current operating expenses into 2027, and, combined with anticipated funding under our collaboration agreement with Kyowa Kirin, should support our ziftomenib AML program through topline results from KOMET-017.
