    Executive summary

    United Therapeutics Q4 FY25 — Transformative Product Launches and Strong Revenue Growth

    United Therapeutics delivered strong Q4 FY25 results, driven by double-digit growth in key products like Tyvaso. The company is poised for a transformative period with three major product launches expected by 2027: Tresmi (a coughless soft mist inhaler), a once-daily super prostacyclin, and an improved IPF treatment. Management reaffirmed its commitment to double-digit revenue growth and a $4 billion run rate by late 2026, independent of these new launches, while also advancing its xenotransplantation and AI-enabled drug discovery programs.

    Highlights

    • Patient starts lagged in Q4 FY25 and January due to typical seasonality and severe cross-country weather.

    • Initial curiosity for a new market entrant (Yutrepia) created some competitive dynamics.

    Risks & headwinds

    4
    Seasonal revenue trendsOngoing

    Q1 and Q4 tend to be lighter ordering quarters

    Mitigation: Management reminds investors of historical seasonal patterns; focus on underlying patient demand.

    Competitive market entry (Yutrepia)Past year

    Initial curiosity to evaluate a new market entrant

    Mitigation: Reinforcing Tyvaso DPI's differentiation (consistent delivery, low inspiratory flow); market research indicates belief in competitor's unsubstantiated claims is weighing.

    Patient start lagsQ4 FY25 and January

    Patient starts have lagged trends

    Mitigation: Attributed to typical Q4 seasonality and severe cross-country weather; observed a 'log jam' breaking in February with improving trends.

    TargetPositive outcome data

    Why it matters

    This could usher in a new era of once-a-day treatments for PAH, significantly impacting the company's future growth algorithm.

    Also transformative for our markets will be the unblinding of our outcome study next week. We are optimistic that this unblinding will usher in a new era of once-a-day treatments for pulmonary hypertension.

    Q&A highlights

    4

    What is the confidence level for TETON 1 data for IPF, especially given TETON 2 results? And what is the latest impact from Yutrepia on patient adds for DPI or nebulizer?

    Management is highly optimistic for TETON 1, expecting similar robust results to TETON 2 due to similar patient populations. Regarding Yutrepia, Tyvaso remains the market leader; while there was initial curiosity, doctors recognize Tyvaso DPI's advantages. Referral rates are back to pre-Liquidia launch levels, but patient starts lagged in Q4/January due to seasonality and weather, though February showed a strong rebound.

    So just to reiterate, we're extremely enthusiastic about the TETON 2 results. And we have great confidence that these results are going to be translated to a second successful study, in particular, TETON 1.

    Detailed Narrative

    01

    Transformative Product Pipeline

    United Therapeutics is preparing for a period of significant product innovation, highlighted by three anticipated commercial launches by 2027. These include Tresmi, a novel soft mist inhaler for PAH and ILD designed to reduce cough by up to 90%; a once-daily super prostacyclin for PAH, offering extended efficacy; and a new treatment for IPF, which demonstrated superior efficacy in its first pivotal trial (TETON 2) and is expected to be confirmed by TETON 1 results. The company plans to file for Tresmi approval this year for a 2027 launch, and for the IPF treatment after TETON 1 unblinding next month, targeting a June 2027 launch.

    02

    Strong Revenue Performance and Market Leadership

    The company achieved record-breaking revenue in FY25, surpassing $3 billion for the first time, an 11% increase over FY24. Q4 FY25 revenue reached $790 million, up 7% year-over-year. This growth was primarily driven by Tyvaso, which saw a 12% increase in total revenue to $464 million in Q4, with Tyvaso DPI growing 24% year-over-year. Despite seasonal ordering patterns and competitive dynamics, Tyvaso maintains its market leadership, with referral rates at two-year highs and prescriber breadth and patient retention at or above pre-competitive launch levels.

    03

    Advancements in Xenotransplantation and Organ Manufacturing

    United Therapeutics is making significant strides in its transplantation programs. The xenotransplantation program has successfully transplanted two patients in its FDA-approved phase-less clinical trial and aims to fully enroll the 6-patient cohort by summer 2026, with a commercial product targeted for 2030. Additionally, its Miromatrix subsidiary completed the first manufactured liver clinical trial and expects FDA guidance this year for both the liver recovery product and the mirokidney implanted product, showcasing broad efforts in creating transplantable organs.

    04

    AI-Enabled Drug Discovery and 'Skunkworks' Innovation

    The company is leveraging its AI-enabled digital lung model, which can simulate hundreds of Phase III trials in silico, significantly accelerating drug development and reducing costs. This technology has attracted interest from three pharmaceutical companies for potential collaborations. The 'Skunkworks' division, responsible for Tresmi, continues to develop innovative products, including once-daily and PRN inhalers, improved oral therapies, and additional PAH/IPF treatments, all with long intellectual property protection.

    05

    Competitive Landscape and Q1 Outlook

    While Tyvaso remains the market leader, the company acknowledged initial curiosity around a new market entrant (Yutrepia). However, internal data suggests that the advantages of Tyvaso DPI (consistent delivery, low inspiratory flow) are being recognized by healthcare providers. Patient starts experienced a lag in Q4 and January due to seasonality and severe weather but showed a strong rebound in February. Management anticipates a return to sequential revenue growth no later than Q2 FY26 if these positive trends continue.
