Geron reported Q3'25 Rytelo revenues of $47.2M, down from $49M in Q2, with no underlying increase in demand reported. Despite efforts to boost Rytelo's use in first and second-line therapy (now 36%, up from 30%), revenue growth remains elusive for GERN. Recent leadership changes include the departure of COO Andrew Grethlein and CCO Jim Ziegler, with Ahmed ElNawawi stepping in as CCO.

Wainwright & Co, LLC, Research Division Faisal Khurshid - Leerink Partners LLC, Research Division Presentation Operator Hello, and welcome to the Geron Corporation Third Quarter 2025 Earnings Call.
Geron (GERN) came out with a quarterly loss of $0.03 per share in line with the Zacks Consensus Estimate. This compares to a loss of $0.04 per share a year ago.
Geron (GERN) doesn't possess the right combination of the two key ingredients for a likely earnings beat in its upcoming report. Get prepared with the key expectations.
Geron Corporation (GERN) is rated BUY due to strong early RYTELO sales, robust financials, and an undervalued stock price near 52-week lows. RYTELO, recently FDA-approved for lower-risk MDS, is driving revenue growth and has significant peak sales potential, with further pipeline expansion underway. A strengthened executive team and global expansion plans position GERN for sustainable growth, despite competition from established therapies like Reblozyl.
Geron's Q2'25 sales of Rytelo (imetelstat) show clear growth, with net product revenue rising to $49M and underlying demand up 17%. Recent performance dispels fears that Rytelo's market share has already peaked, echoing past misjudgments seen with AUPH. A run-up into an interim readout from IMpactMF, GERN's trial of imetelstat in myelofibrosis, could begin in H1'26, since results are expected in H2'26.

Geron (GERN) came out with a quarterly loss of $0.02 per share versus the Zacks Consensus Estimate of a loss of $0.03. This compares to a loss of $0.1 per share a year ago.
This is a follow-up coverage of the Geron Corp., a small biotech company that markets first-in-class drug Imetelstat for the treatment of myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). The first three full-quarter sales of the imetelstat did not meet stock market expectations; consequently, share price went down by 70%. Conservative analysis of the disease, epidemiology, drug properties, and competition suggests a substantial market opportunity.
Geron's RYTELO faces limited revenue potential in a crowded MDS market, with predominantly 3L+ utilization and flat sequential growth. Despite a narrowed net loss, Geron remains unprofitable with no clear path to cash generation and faces increasing operating expenses. Imetelstat's prospects in MF are poor against established treatments, and its clinical and market challenges are significant.
