Rating:51Neutral
Price Target:

▼(-7.41% Downside)
Action:Reiterated
Date:06/19/26
The score is held back primarily by weak financial performance (negative gross profit, very large losses, and heavy ongoing cash burn) and a bearish technical setup (price below key moving averages, negative MACD). These are partly offset by a constructive earnings-call outlook highlighting cash runway, cost discipline, partner milestone traction, and multiple upcoming clinical catalysts.
Positive Factors
Liquidity and runway
A $665M cash balance and guidance calling runway into early 2028, plus a reiterated 2026 cash opex target < $390M and ~30% YoY opex reduction, give the company multi‑quarter funding visibility. That liquidity supports continued platform investment and multiple clinical readouts without immediate financing pressure.
Negative Factors
Negative gross profit and deep losses
Negative gross profit and extremely large trailing‑twelve‑month losses indicate the core operations are not currently profitable. Sustained negative margins imply the cost base or revenue model isn't scaling to cover R&D and platform costs, pressuring returns on invested capital and shareholder equity.

Recursion Pharmaceuticals Earnings Call Summary
Earnings Call Date:May 06, 2026
(Q1-2026)
| % Change Since: |
Next Earnings Date:Aug 11, 2026
Earnings Call Sentiment Positive
The call emphasized multiple clear positives: a clinical proof of concept (REC-4881), encouraging early clinical safety/PK/PD for REC-1245, first patient dosed for REC-4539, strong partnership traction (> $500M inflows, 10 milestones), platform efficiency gains (≈90% fewer compounds, ~2x faster candidate progression), and a 30% YoY reduction in cash operating expenses with $665M cash (runway into early 2028). The primary negatives are that the programs are still early (key readouts and registrational plans pending), regulatory uncertainty for first-in-disease indications, potential safety risks as dose escalation continues, and a finite runway that could be pressured by delays. Overall, the highlights materially outweigh the lowlights given the combination of clinical proofs, platform progress, partnership milestones, and cost discipline.Positive Updates
Clinical Proof of Concept for REC-4881
REC-4881 (allosteric MEK1/2 inhibitor) achieved a clinical proof of concept in FAP with significant reduction in precancerous polyps and durable responses; FDA engagement for a potential registrational path has been initiated (engagement started H1 2026).
Negative Updates
No Approved Revenue-Generating Medicines Yet
Despite clinical POC and multiple programs in clinic, Recursion has not reported any approved, revenue-generating medicines—future commercial revenues depend on successful registrational outcomes and partner opt-ins.

Company Guidance
Management guided that Recursion closed the quarter with $665M in cash, which they say provides runway into early 2028, and reiterated 2026 cash operating expense guidance of < $390M after achieving a ~30% year‑over‑year reduction in operating expenses; platform monetization to date includes >$500M in partner inflows and 10 milestones delivered (including a fifth Sanofi milestone this quarter). They said the company has 5 wholly‑owned programs (each with inflection points over the next 12–18 months) and expects multiple clinical readouts for every clinical‑stage program in the next 12–18 months; specific clinical metrics include REC‑1245 (16 patients across 4 dose levels, 7/16 MSI‑high, no DLTs to date, ~90% grade 1–2 GI AEs, one grade 3 event, no treatment‑related SAEs, fuller PK/PD and dose‑escalation data expected H2 2026) and REC‑4539 (first patient dosed in April after ~20 months and ~400 compounds synthesized). Platform and R&D metrics highlighted include >50 petabytes of proprietary multimodal data, >10 high‑dimensional biology maps (over half with Roche/Genentech), claims of ~90% fewer compounds synthesized versus industry benchmarks (~330 vs 2,500–5,000) and ~2× faster progression to development candidates, plus ClinTech improvements of ~30–60% faster trial enrollment and increases in eligible patient populations from ~10% to ~40%.Recursion Pharmaceuticals Financial Statement Overview
