Savara reports Q4 EPS (9c), consensus (10c)

“We look forward to reporting IMPALA-2 top line results at the end of the second quarter and, assuming positive data, anticipate filing the BLA in the first half of 2025,” said Matt Pauls, Chair and CEO, Savara. “2023 was a year of strong execution that included the on-time, over-enrollment of the Phase 3 IMPALA-2 trial and an analysis of a health claims database that identified ~3,600 currently diagnosed aPAP patients and another ~1,400 potential, currently undiagnosed, aPAP patients in the U.S. Additionally, we launched aPAP ClearPathTM, a simple, accurate, no-cost, lab-developed GM-CSF autoantibody blood test, along with a disease state awareness campaign, that is educating U.S. pulmonologists about the disease and need for earlier testing. Finally, we completed an $80 million equity financing last July, and with $162 million in cash and investments and a track record of strong fiscal discipline, we believe we are capitalized into 2026.”
