Fiscal Third Quarter 2025 Financial Results
Revenue for the three months ended August 31, 2025, was $7.9 million, compared with $12.6 million for the three months ended August 31, 2024. Revenue from the collaboration with Sanofi decreased as the initial research term for certain drug targets ended. The decrease was offset by a higher percentage of completion of performance obligations in the current period related to the collaboration with Pfizer.
Research and development expenses for the three months ended August 31, 2025, were $86.1 million compared with $55.5 million for the three months ended August 31, 2024. The increase was primarily related to clinical, contract manufacturing and consulting costs as Nurix continued to accelerate the enrollment of patients in the ongoing trial of bexobrutideg and prepare for the initiation of pivotal trials.
General and administrative expenses for the three months ended August 31, 2025, were $13.2 million, compared with $11.7 million for the three months ended August 31, 2024. The increase was primarily due to an increase in compensation and related personnel costs.
Net loss for the three months ended August 31, 2025, was $86.4 million, or ($1.03) per share, compared with $49.0 million, or ($0.67) per share, for the three months ended August 31, 2024.
Cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities was $428.8 million as of August 31, 2025, compared to $609.6 million as of November 30, 2024.
