Gross margins in the range of 84% to 87%.
Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2025 Results

Total revenue for the quarter ended December 31, 2025 was $20.7 million compared to $15.1 million for the same period in the prior year. Revenue in the quarter includes sales of $19.0 million of HEPZATO in the U.S. and $1.7 million of CHEMOSAT in Europe.

Total revenue for the year-ended December 31, 2025 was $85.2 million compared to $37.2 million for the same period in the prior year. Revenue in 2025 includes sales of $78.8 million of HEPZATO in the U.S. and $6.4 million of CHEMOSAT in Europe.

Research and development expenses for the quarter and year-ended December 31, 2025, were $9.4 million and $29.2 million, respectively compared to $2.9 million and $13.9 million for the same periods in the prior year. The increase is primarily due to costs associated with expanding the clinical team including share-based compensation expense related to an increase in headcount and initiation of the Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating HEPZATO in combination with standard of care for mCRC and mBC. In 2024, these costs are primarily related to medical affairs and regulatory costs associated with the approved products.

The increase is primarily due to continued commercial expansion activities including marketing-related expenses and additional personnel on the commercial team. In addition, the increase in personnel along with higher grant date exercise prices has increased the share-based compensation expense.

Net loss for the quarter ended December 31, 2025 was $1.9 million and net income for the full year was $2.7 million, compared to net loss of $3.4 million and $26.4 million for the same periods in the prior year.

Non-GAAP positive adjusted EBITDA for the quarter and year-ended December 31, 2025 was $2.4 million and $25.1 million compared to adjusted EBITDA gain of $4.6 million and loss of $2.5 million for the same periods in the prior year. A table reconciling non-GAAP measures is included in this press release for reference.

Fourth Quarter and Recent Accomplishments and Highlights

Dermatology – Skin Cancer

The Company announced the publication of an independent expert consensus paper titled "31-Gene Expression Profiling for Cutaneous Melanoma: An Expert Consensus Panel," which endorsed the Company’s DecisionDx-Melanoma test. Authored by a panel of ten melanoma experts from leading academic and clinical institutions, the paper presented evidence-based recommendations supporting DecisionDx-Melanoma as a best-practice tool for guiding management decisions in patients with cutaneous melanoma (CM). The panel concluded that the test provides prognostic information independent of traditional clinicopathologic factors and can be integrated with existing staging systems to improve patient risk assessment and help optimize clinical decision-making. Drawing on a comprehensive review of 26 published studies encompassing more than 7,500 patients, the panel used a modified Delphi process to reach unanimous agreement on nine consensus statements defining the test’s role in risk stratification, sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) decision making and long-term patient management. See the Company’s news release from Dec. 9, 2025, for more information.
The Company also announced new data demonstrating the clinical value of its DecisionDx-Melanoma test in improving SLNB decision making and enhancing recurrence risk prediction in patients with CM. The data was featured in two oral presentations at the 2nd European Congress on Dermato-Oncology. By combining the biologic information of a patient’s tumor with traditional staging, DecisionDx-Melanoma is designed to enhance five-year prognostic accuracy in SLN-negative patients and potentially provide additional clarity for identifying those at higher risk of recurrence. These findings support the test’s potential to help clinicians make more risk-aligned therapeutic decisions and tailor follow-up care according to a patient’s individual risk. See the Company’s news release from Nov. 14, 2025, for more information.
Gastroenterology

The Company announced the publication of a new systematic review and meta-analysis (SRMA) demonstrating that the TissueCypher Barrett’s Esophagus test provides clinically validated risk stratification for patients with Barrett’s esophagus (BE). The findings confirm that TissueCypher can outperform traditional pathology or clinical factors alone to identify patients at increased risk of developing esophageal cancer. The paper, titled "The Tissue Systems Pathology Test Predicts Risk of Progression in Patients With Barrett’s Esophagus: Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis," was published in the Journal of Clinical Gastroenterology. The analysis consolidated data from six previously published studies and found that TissueCypher consistently identifies patients at greater risk of progression to high-grade dysplasia (HGD) or esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC), a key step toward enabling personalized, risk-aligned patient management aimed at preventing cancer. See the Company’s news release from Dec. 12, 2025, for more information.
Dermatology – Atopic Dermatitis

The Company announced the limited access launch of AdvanceAD-Tx, a 487-gene expression profile test designed to guide systemic treatment decision making in patients ages 12 and older with moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis, following a presentation of the prospective, multicenter development and validation study at the 25th Annual Fall Clinical Dermatology Conference (news release), which was recently published in the Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology (JAAD) (news release). AdvanceAD-Tx is designed to identify patients with a Janus kinase inhibitor (JAKi) responder profile who are more likely to achieve an Eczema Area and Severity Index improvement of 90% (EASI-90), more quickly and with reduced flares and itch by three months, when treated with a JAKi compared to a T helper type 2 (Th2)-targeted therapy. See the Company’s news release from Nov. 11, 2025, for more information.
Uveal Melanoma

The Company announced new data from the largest prospective, multicenter study to date comparing next-generation sequencing (NGS)-based gene mutation analysis with the combination of DecisionDx-UM and Preferentially Expressed Antigen in Melanoma (PRAME) gene expression for predicting outcomes in patients with uveal melanoma (UM). The study, titled "Early Genetic Evolution of Driver Mutations in Uveal Melanoma," was conducted by the Collaborative Ocular Oncology Group (COOG) and recently published in Nature Communications. See the Company’s news release from Dec. 17, 2025, for more information.
Corporate

The Company announced that it was recognized by the Houston Chronicle as a Houston Top Workplace, which celebrates people-focused, standout workplace cultures. This marked the fifth consecutive year the Company had been ranked among the Houston metro area’s esteemed workplaces. Castle also earned three Culture Excellence awards in the areas of Employee Appreciation, Employee Well-Being and Professional Development. See the Company’s news release from Nov. 17, 2025, for more information.

"We remain confident in the bitopertin program and the Phase 3 APOLLO study. We are fully committed to working closely with the FDA to position bitopertin for approval following the completion of APOLLO at the end of the year," said John Quisel, J.D., Ph.D., Chief Executive Officer and President of Disc. "At the same time, our broader pipeline continues to deliver meaningful momentum. DISC-0974 generated powerful data in MF anemia that further reinforces its potential to transform the treatment landscape and we look forward to providing additional updates later this year. We are also excited about DISC-3405 with first in-patient data in both polycythemia vera and sickle cell disease expected later this year."

Recent Highlights and Anticipated Milestones:

Bitopertin: GlyT1 Inhibitor (Heme Synthesis Modulator)

Received a Complete Response Letter (CRL) from the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in February 2026 related to sufficiency of evidence of association between percent change in PPIX and sunlight exposure-based endpoints
Progressing Phase 3 APOLLO clinical trial of bitopertin in adults and adolescents with EPP, with topline data expected Q4 2026
Following completion of APOLLO, expect to submit a response to the CRL and receive an FDA decision by mid-2027
DISC-0974: Anti-Hemojuvelin Antibody (Hepcidin Suppression)

Initiated Phase 1b study in sickle cell disease in Q4 2025 with initial data expected in 2H 2026
Full Year 2025 Financial Results:

Cash Position: Cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities were $791.2 million as of December 31, 2025, compared to $489.9 million as of December 31, 2024. The increase was largely due to net proceeds of $454.4 million from underwritten offerings in January and October 2025, partially offset by cash utilized in operating activities. We expect that our existing cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities as of December 31, 2025 will be sufficient to fund operational plans into 2029.

Research and Development Expenses: R&D expenses were $170.6 million for the full year ended December 31, 2025, as compared to $96.7 million for the full year ended December 31, 2024. The increase in R&D expenses was primarily driven by the progression of Disc’s portfolio, including bitopertin’s clinical studies and drug manufacturing, the advancement of the DISC-0974 program, and increased headcount, as well as $23.0 million in payments related to the achievement of development milestones.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses: SG&A expenses were $65.4 million for the full year ended December 31, 2025, as compared to $33.0 million for the full year ended December 31, 2024. The increase in SG&A expenses was primarily due to increased headcount including establishing infrastructure to support potential commercialization.
Net Loss: Net loss was $212.2 million for the full year ended December 31, 2025, as compared to $109.4 million for the full year ended December 31, 2024. The increase was primarily due to higher operating costs in the current period to support the continued advancement of our pipeline.
