Lille, France; Cambridge, MA; Zurich, Switzerland; April 2, 2026 - GENFIT (Euronext: GNFT), a late-stage biopharmaceutical company dedicated to improving the lives of patients with rare and life-threatening liver diseases, today announced annual financial results for the year ended December 31, 2025 and provided a corporate update. A summary of the consolidated financial statements is included below.
Pascal Prigent, CEO of GENFIT commented: “Iqirvo®’s performance in its first full year of sales, together with encouraging early results from both our oncology and ACLF assets, were very promising signs for GENFIT last year. 2026 could be even better and significantly accelerate the Company’s trajectory. Indeed, we expect to see continued strong performance from Iqirvo® in PBC, while also anticipating a significant acceleration in our diagnostic business. On top of these growing businesses, there are also promising programs further down the pipeline. This summer, we expect to receive full results from our Phase 1b oncology trial, which could become a game changer. In 2027, we anticipate results from the Phase 2 proof‑of‑concept study evaluating NTZ in ACLF that we will start later this year. Looking further ahead, Ipsen’s ongoing development efforts in PSC also have the potential to represent a step change for the Company.”
In 2025, GENFIT benefited from the strong commercial performance of Iqirvo®1 in Primary Biliary Cholangitis (PBC), driven by Ipsen’s commercial execution. Performance will continue to be closely monitored, and current indicators suggest that Ipsen is on track to deliver results meaningfully above initial expectations. Beyond this existing business, several additional programs in our pipeline or with partners have the potential to generate additional significant value in the future on a scale comparable to, or exceeding, PBC royalties:
- In metabolic dysfunction‑associated steatohepatitis (MASH), GENFIT’s diagnostic technology targets a very large and rapidly expanding market, supported by accelerating therapeutic development and deepening engagement from major industry players. In this context, our non-invasive technology is recognized as a critical component of this evolving ecosystem. We believe that the potential royalties deriving from our technology could be very significant. Key catalysts will be reimbursement status and industry partnerships, with multiple initiatives currently underway to drive broader deployment.
- In oncology, new Phase 1b clinical data from the GNS561 combination in cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) are expected mid‑year and should provide important insights to inform further development and support progression toward Phase 2.
- In Acute-on-Chronic Liver Failure (ACLF), a Phase 2 study evaluating NTZ is expected to start in the second half of this year, marking a significant step forward in this indication.
- Finally, in PSC, a market comparable in size to PBC, Ipsen has initiated a Phase 3 study called ELASCOPE2 in February 2026, and currently is the sole company at this stage of development in PSC.
I. 2025 Highlights – including post-closing events
Commercial & partnership highlights
In 2025, GENFIT’s partners achieved significant progress, driving a number of important developments across key programs:
Ipsen’s Iqirvo (elafibranor) in PBC and PSC
- PBC: Iqirvo’s net sales for the fourth quarter 2025 amounted to US$88 million, bringing full-year 2025 sales to US$208 million3, triggering the first US$20M commercial milestone payment to GENFIT one year ahead of schedule. This momentum also allowed GENFIT to activate, in January 2026, an additional €30 million tranche under GENFIT’s royalty‑financing agreement with HCRx, enhancing financial flexibility without shareholder dilution.
- PSC: Ipsen initiated the first and only global Phase 3 clinical trial, addressing a significant unmet medical need, as no approved therapies currently exist for this severe and progressive disease. PSC represents a substantial untapped market opportunity, comparable in size to second line PBC. Should Iqirvo ultimately receive regulatory approval for this indication, GENFIT would be eligible for additional milestone payments as well as additional double‑digit royalties.
- Following the mutual termination of GENFIT’s agreement with Terns in December 2025, Ipsen exercised its contractual opt‑in right to include Greater China in the existing Licensing Agreement, resulting in a worldwide elafibranor license for Ipsen under the same favorable financial terms.
Non-invasive diagnostic technology in MASH
- The MASH therapeutics market accelerated in 2025, with near‑blockbuster performance (~US$1 billion in sales) achieved by the first approved therapy in its first year of commercialization, increasing the need for large‑scale, non‑invasive diagnostic, further reinforced by the entry of an additional major therapeutic player in August. Against this backdrop, pricing for NASHnext®—developed by Labcorp as a Laboratory Development Test (LDT) under license from GENFIT and based on GENFIT’s proprietary non‑invasive diagnostic technology for identifying at‑risk patients in MASH (formerly NASH)—, was established by U.S. Medicare and Medicaid at the end of 2025. This represents an important step toward reimbursement.
R&D highlights
In 2025, GENFIT advanced its lead clinical programs in ACLF and CCA, reprioritized VS‑01, and continued to assess the potential of multiple mechanisms of action across its research portfolio.
Clinical developments
- G1090N/NTZ (ACLF):Our lead program generated preliminary Phase 1 data showing a favorable safety profile and a robust anti-inflammatory activity evidenced through functional ex vivo assays on blood samples from study participants and from cirrhotic donors.
- GNS561 (CCA): Encouraging preliminary data were generated from the ongoing Phase 1b study evaluating investigational drug GNS561 with a MEK inhibitor (MEKi) in KRAS mutated CCA, positioning this novel combination as a potential new therapeutic approach for difficult-to-treat cancers.
- VS-01 (ACLF):GENFIT decided to discontinue this program in ACLF, following the emergence of a safety signal, prompting a precautionary reassessment of the benefit/risk ratio in this indication, and refocused development in Urea Cycle Disorder (UCD) where the disease biology, patient population and development framework materially differ.
Research developments
- SRT–015 (ACLF):Although activity on the ASK1 target has been demonstrated in preclinical models, the in vivo data available to date do not confirm a sufficient benefit, and uncertainties remain regarding the expected effects in ACLF.
- CLM–022 (ACLF):Alongside preclinical studies, GENFIT pursued the activities preliminary to clinical development, including pharmacokinetic and nonclinical safety characterization. While the NLRP3 target remains valid, developability challenges with CLM-022 have been identified and will be further assessed.
- VS-02-HE (ACLF continuum):VS‑02‑HE is being optimized as an oral formulation designed to act at the colonic level, where ammonia is primarily produced, to minimize its systemic concentration while reducing glutamine levels in the brain. In the first quarter of 2026, regulatory toxicology studies were initiated.
- EViv (ACLF):At the end of 2025, GENFIT initiated a research collaboration with EverZom aimed at evaluating the therapeutic potential of extracellular vesicles derived from human adipose‑derived mesenchymal stem cells (hAD‑MSC‑EVs) in Acute Decompensation (AD) and ACLF.
- VS-01-HAC (UCD):VS01 was reprioritized to Urea Cycle Disorders (UCD) following the discontinuation of the ACLF program. Positive initial data from a pivotal juvenile toxicology study in Göttingen minipigs supported the tolerability of the compound. VS-01-HAC was granted Rare Pediatric Disease Designation by the FDA for UCD, potentially enabling eligibility for a Priority Review Voucher upon New Drug Application approval.
Other developments
- In 2025, GENFIT contributed to positioning ACLF as a strategic focus within the Forum for Collaborative Research, an independent multi‑stakeholder initiative bringing together regulators, industry leaders, academics, clinicians, scientists and patient groups to help shape and accelerate drug development in areas of high unmet medical need.
Financial highlights
The Royalty Financing agreement signed in March 20254 has significantly extended GENFIT’s cash runway, beyond the end of 2028, enabling the Company to further develop its pipeline focused on ACLF and support general corporate purposes. See III. Financial results for further details.
Genfit recorded a revenue of €65.4 million in 2025. This consists of greater than expected royalty revenue of €21.8 million and two milestones totalling €43.6 million, both of which stem from positive market performance of Ipsen’s Iqirvo®.
For the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company’s net loss amounted to €86.0 million compared with a net gain of €1.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2024.
Excluding certain one‑time non‑cash operating expenses of €49.1 million, and excluding an estimated €13.3 million in financial expenses arising from faster than expected repayment of the royalty financing, the 2025 net loss would be reduced to €23.6 million. These items are described in more detail below in section III. Financial Results.
Sustainability highlights
B Corp certification was granted at the end of 2025, providing an independent, internationally recognized mark of credibility. This certification underscores GENFIT’s engagement in social, societal, environmental and governance matters as the Company continues to execute its ESG roadmap on schedule.
Corporate governance updates
Mr. Tristan IMBERT was appointed as a director for a three-year term by the General Meeting of Shareholders held on June 17, 2025 and joined the Audit Committee and ESG Committee following his appointment. The terms of office of Mr. Eric BACLET and Ms. Katherine KALIN as directors were renewed for a period of three years. Mr. John BROZEK replaced Ms. Florence SÉJOURNÉ as permanent representative of Biotech Avenir SAS on the Company 's Board of Directors. Dr. Pejvack MOTLAGH replaced Dr. Carol ADDY as Chief Medical Officer and member of the Executive Committee in November 2025, following her retirement on June 30, 2025. Sakina SAYAH-JEANNE, formerly Executive Vice President of Research and Translational Science and member of the Executive Committee, replaced Dean HUM, Chief Scientific Officer following his retirement on September 30, 2025.
II. 2026 Outlook
Commercial and partnership outlook
Ipsen’s Iqirvo® (elafibranor) in PBC and PSC
Ipsen is expected to publish its first‑quarter 2026 financial results on April 23, 2026. For further information on the development of Iqirvo in PBC and PSC, please refer to Ipsen’s news flow and financial calendar: https://www.ipsen.com/investors/financial-calendar/
Non-invasive diagnostic technology in MASH
Building on the therapeutic market momentum observed in 2025, and the expected evolution of the competitive landscape with the entry of additional large pharmaceutical players, the MASH diagnostics market is expected to further develop in 2026. Addressing this opportunity at scale will require reliable and scalable solutions to support patient identification, treatment decision‑making and longitudinal monitoring across care pathways. In this context, GENFIT’s technology is already referenced in international clinical guidance as the only fully blood‑based approach for identifying at‑risk MASH patients, recognized by the LITMUS and NIMBLE consortia and supported by a robust body of scientific literature. Looking ahead, further progress in 2026 will depend on a combination of factors, including reimbursement and payer adoption, demand generated through broad pharmaceutical programs, and advances toward an IVD‑labeled version to support wider clinical use.
R&D outlook
Clinical outlook
- G1090N/NTZ (ACLF):GENFIT will engage with regulatory authorities, including the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), to determine the best approach for progressing to a Phase 2 proof-of-concept in inflammatory conditions such as ACLF where systemic immune dysregulation is a critical driver of disease progression. Initiation remains targeted for the second half of 2026, with data expected in 2027. In March 2026, Orphan Drug Designation (ODD) was granted for NTZ for the treatment of ACLF.
- GNS561 (CCA):Phase 1b dose escalation is progressing as planned, with additional cohort data expected in mid‑2026. The Phase 1 study is designed to assess safety, define the recommended Phase 2 doses for the combination, and evaluate preliminary signs of activity. Initiation of Phase 2 remains targeted for the second half of 2026. In parallel, GENFIT will investigate the biological rationale for autophagy inhibition in the emergence of resistance to standards of care. These studies will aim to assess the therapeutic potential of new combination strategies, associating GNS561 with other agents.
Research outlook
- SRT-015 (ACLF):Current work focuses on finishing the preclinical activities to decide by the end of the first semester of 2026 if we move the program into a first‑in‑human clinical trial.
- CLM-022 (ACLF):Ongoing work aims to strengthen the translational rationale for NLRP3 inhibition in the indications of AD and ACLF.
- VS-02-HE (ACLF continuum): Pharmacological studies are ongoing, and the regulatory toxicology studies are expected to be completed by early 2027. Subject to confirmation, a first‑in‑human trial could be launched in the second half of 2027.
- EViv (ACLF): GENFIT and EVerZom plan to conduct exploratory studies to evaluate the efficacy of EViv in ACLF, with a decision point targeted mid-2027 on whether to advance into clinical development.
- VS-01-HAC (UCD): A plan of action is currently executed, aimed at securing the developability of VS‑01 in UCD, before potentially initiating a first clinical trial.
Other developments
- In May 2026, ahead of its annual congress, the European Association for the Study of the Liver (EASL) will bring together leading international learned societies, spanning North America, Asia‑Pacific, Latin America and Africa, represented by AASLD5, APASL6, ALEH7 and SOLDA8, to jointly address ACLF. This pre‑congress program sends a strong signal for patients, healthcare providers and industrial stakeholders, underscoring growing alignment and momentum across the global hepatology community.

| Other revenue | 206 | 85 |
| TOTAL | 67,002 | 65,434 |
Royalty revenue
Royalty revenue is derived from worldwide sales (excluding Greater China) of Ipsen 's Iqirvo. These are utilized to repay the Group 's Royalty Financing liability.
Milestone revenue
On May 20, 2025, GENFIT announced that Ipsen’s Iqirvo was granted pricing and reimbursement in Italy for Primary Biliary Cholangitis (PBC)9, the third major European country to do so in addition to the UK and Germany. This third approval triggered a new milestone payment of €26.5 million under GENFIT 's Licensing and Collaboration Agreement with Ipsen, due upon pricing and reimbursement of Iqirvo in three major European markets.
In 2025, GENFIT recorded its first commercial milestone of €17.0 million ($20.0 million) after Ipsen’s Iqirvo exceeded the $200 million threshold in its first full year of net sales.
In 2024, the first commercial sale of Iqirvo occurred in the U.S. which triggered a €48.7 million milestone.
| Other income | Year ended | |

| Other operating income (including exchange gains on trade payables and receivables) | 247 | 270 |
| TOTAL | 3,937 | 5,682 |
CIR tax credit
The research tax credit (CIR) amounted to €5,202 in 2025 (€3,415 in 2024), due to an increase in eligible research and development expenses.
Government grants and subsidies
Government grants and subsidies amounted to €210 thousand in 2025 (€275 thousand in 2024).
Other operating income
Other operating income amounted to €270 thousand in 2025 (€247 thousand in 2024), mainly comprised of exchange gains on trade receivables.
Operating results and expenses
Operating expenses for 2025 amounted to €124.7 million compared to €67.7 million for 2024. This is comprised of research and development expenses, general and administrative expenses, marketing and market access expenses, and other operating expenses.
The increase is due to several factors:
- An increase in research and development costs of €56.1 million, explained by (i) the announcement to stop the VS-01 ACLF clinical trials, triggering a one-time non-cash impairment of the VS-01 ACLF intangible asset totaling €46.2 as well as future estimated related closing costs of €2.9 million, (ii) an increase in subcontracting costs related to GENFIT’s pipeline, and (iii) increased headcount.
- An increase in general and administrative expenses of €1.2 million, explained by increased headcount.
- A decrease in marketing and market access expenses of €0.3 million.
- An increase in other operating expenses of €0.1 million.
In 2025, GENFIT generated a consolidated operating loss of €53.6 million, compared to an operating gain of €3.3 million in 2024.
Clarification on non-recurring charges
The reported €53.6 million consolidated operating loss includes one‑time non‑cash costs related to the decision to discontinue the VS‑01 ACLF clinical trials. Excluding these one-time non-cash costs, the consolidated operating loss is reduced to €4.5 million.
Financial results
2025 resulted in a financial loss of €32.9 million compared to a financial loss of €1.4 million in 2024.
The financial result for 2025 is driven by the following components:
- Accrued interest income on investments amounting to €2.4 million, and a one-time gain related to the OCEANE convertible debt extinguishment of €0.4 million, offset by
- A €28.8 million increase in fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL) of the royalty financing liability, royalty financing issuance costs of €4.0 million, foreign exchange losses (realized and unrealized) of €1.4 million, and interest expenses on financing operations of €1.2 million.
The €28.8 million increase in the FVTPL of the royalty financing liability reflects a better-than-expected royalty forecast. Based on this revised forecast, we estimate that the royalty financing will be repaid earlier than originally planned. This acceleration results in a quicker recognition of related financial expenses. We estimate that this timing difference results in financial expenses being €13.3 million higher in 2025.
Cash position
As of December 31, 2025, the Company’s cash and cash equivalents amounted to €101.1 million compared with €81.8 million as of December 31, 2024.
In 2025, cash utilization is mainly the result of our research and development efforts in our ACLF franchise (notably VS-01, NTZ/G1090N, SRT-015, CLM-022, and VS-02 HE), as well as GNS561 in cholangiocarcinoma (CCA). Cash utilization is offset notably by the €26.55 million milestone received in July 2025 (invoiced in May 2025) upon pricing and reimbursement approval of Iqirvo (elafibranor) in Italy, the third major European country to do so, as part of our long-term strategic partnership with Ipsen (the “Ipsen Agreement”) signed in December 2021.
In January 2026, GENFIT exercised its option to receive (and received) the second installment of the Royalty Financing agreement totaling €30.0 million. Both this amount, as well as the first commercial milestone of €17.0 million ($20.0 million) that GENFIT will receive as part of the Ipsen Agreement, are not included in cash and cash equivalents as of December 31, 2025.
We expect that our existing cash and cash equivalents will enable us to fund our operating expenses and capital expenditure requirements beyond the end of 2028, enabling the Company to further develop its R&D pipeline and support general corporate purposes. This is based on current assumptions and programs and does not include exceptional events. This estimation assumes (i) our expectation to receive significant future commercial milestone revenue pursuant to the Ipsen Agreement and Ipsen meeting its sales-based thresholds and (ii) drawing down the third and final, optional installment under the Royalty Financing agreement.

ABOUT GENFIT
GENFIT is a biopharmaceutical company committed to improving the lives of patients with rare, life-threatening liver diseases whose medical needs remain largely unmet. GENFIT is a pioneer in liver disease research and development with a rich history and a solid scientific heritage spanning more than two decades. Today, GENFIT focuses on Acute on-chronic Liver Failure (ACLF) and associated conditions such as acute decompensation (AD) and hepatic encephalopathy (HE). It develops therapeutic assets which have complementary mechanisms of action, selected to address key pathophysiological pathways. GENFIT also targets other serious diseases, such as cholangiocarcinoma (CCA), urea cycle disorders (UCD) and organic acidemia (OA). Its R&D portfolio, covering several stages of development, ensures a constant news flow. GENFIT 's expertise in developing high-potential molecules – from early to advanced pre-commercialization stages – culminated in 2024 with the accelerated approval of Iqirvo® (elafibranor) by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the European Medicines Agency (EMA) and the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) in the United Kingdom for the treatment of Primary Biliary Cholangitis (PBC). Iqirvo® is now marketed in several countries10. Beyond therapies, GENFIT also has a diagnostic franchise including NIS2+® for the detection of Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH, formerly known as NASH for non-alcoholic steatohepatitis). GENFIT, a BCorp™ certified company since 2025, is headquartered in Lille, France and has offices in Paris (France), Zurich (Switzerland) and Cambridge, MA (USA). The Company is listed on the Euronext regulated market in Paris, Compartment B (Euronext: GNFT). In 2021, Ipsen became one of GENFIT 's largest shareholders, acquiring an 8% stake in the Company 's capital. www.genfit.com
