Omeros Corporation (NASDAQ:OMER) Reports Q2 2025 Results: Narrowed Losses and Key Regulatory Progress

Omeros Corporation released its second-quarter 2025 financial results, posting a net loss of $25.4 million, or $0.43 per share, an improvement from the $56.0 million net loss ($0.97 per share) in the prior-year quarter. The company did not report revenue for the quarter, missing analyst estimates of $318,750 in sales. The adjusted loss per share of $0.53 also came in slightly worse than the consensus estimate of -$0.49.

Key Financial Takeaways

• EPS Performance: The reported loss of $0.43 per share (GAAP) was better than Q2 2024’s $0.97 loss but slightly worse than the adjusted EPS estimate of -$0.49.
• Revenue: No revenue was recorded, falling short of the $318,750 analyst forecast.
• Cash Position: The company ended the quarter with $28.7 million in cash and short-term investments, later bolstered by a $20.6 million equity financing in July.
• Operating Expenses: Total operating expenses declined to $32.4 million from $59.2 million in the prior-year quarter, primarily due to reduced manufacturing costs for narsoplimab.

Market Reaction

Despite the mixed financial results, Omeros shares have shown resilience, gaining 10.6% over the past week and 21.7% over the past month. The market appears to be responding more to the company’s strategic developments rather than the earnings miss, particularly its progress with narsoplimab and debt restructuring.

Pipeline and Strategic Highlights

1. Narsoplimab Regulatory Progress:

   • The FDA accepted Omeros’ resubmitted Biologics License Application (BLA) for narsoplimab in transplant-associated thrombotic microangiopathy (TA-TMA), with a revised PDUFA date of December 26, 2025.
   • The European Medicines Agency (EMA) also validated the Marketing Authorization Application (MAA), with an opinion expected in mid-2026.
   • Two manuscripts supporting narsoplimab’s efficacy in TA-TMA have been submitted for publication.

2. Debt Management:

   • Omeros reduced its near-term debt by over $100 million through convertible note exchanges and equity financing.
   • The company is in advanced discussions for a potential asset acquisition or licensing deal that could provide upfront cash to repay outstanding debt and fund operations.

3. Other Clinical Programs:

   • OMS527 (PDE7 inhibitor): Funded by a $6.24 million NIDA grant, preclinical studies for cocaine use disorder were completed, with clinical trials expected in early 2026.
   • OncotoX-AML: Preclinical data shows promise over current AML treatments, with clinical entry targeted in 18-24 months.

Outlook vs. Analyst Estimates

While Omeros did not provide formal revenue or earnings guidance, analysts project:

• Q3 2025: Estimated EPS of -$0.44 and revenue of $318,750.
• Full-Year 2025: Estimated EPS of -$1.95 and revenue of $3.34 million.

The lack of explicit guidance does not appear to have negatively impacted investor sentiment, as the market focuses on regulatory milestones and potential partnerships.

Conclusion

Omeros’ Q2 results reflect a company in transition, balancing cost discipline with critical regulatory advancements. The market’s positive reaction suggests optimism around narsoplimab’s approval prospects and the company’s strengthened balance sheet.
