=Nektar Therapeutics (NKTR) reported earnings on Thur 3 Nov 2016 (a/h)





Nektar Therapeutics beats by $0.04, beats on revs :
  • Reports Q3 (Sep) loss of $0.32 per share, $0.04 better than the Capital IQ Consensus of ($0.36); revenues fell 39.4% year/year to $36.3 mln vs the $31.5 mln Capital IQ Consensus.
  • "Our pipeline is rapidly advancing with several important data catalysts and potential approvals expected over the next several quarters," said Howard W. Robin, President and Chief Executive Officer of Nektar. "With the positive clinical results from our ongoing Phase 1 study of NKTR-214, we have now demonstrated that NKTR-214 is the first investigational medicine in immuno-oncology that selectively stimulates the in vivo proliferation of endogenous tumor-killing lymphocytes within the tumor micro-environment. In Q3, these data led to a broad clinical collaboration with Bristol-Myers Squibb to evaluate combination regimens with their anti-PD-1 agent in five different tumor types and at least seven indications. Within the next two quarters, we will have Phase 3 data for four programs: two Bayer anti-infective programs, Ophthotech's Fovista in wet AMD, and our own proprietary pain program, NKTR-181, in chronic low back pain. We are also expecting a decision from the European CHMP on conditional approval of ONZEALD by the end of Q1 2017."
