PRINCETON, N.J., March 02, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- UroGen Pharma Ltd. (Nasdaq: URGN), a biotech company dedicated to developing and commercializing innovative solutions that treat urothelial and specialty cancers, today announced financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2025, and provided an overview of recent developments.
“2025 was a tremendously successful and transformative year for UroGen, highlighted by the FDA approval and commercial launch of ZUSDURI, the first and only approved medicine for adults with recurrent low-grade intermediate-risk non-muscle invasive bladder cancer,” said Liz Barrett, President and Chief Executive Officer of UroGen. “2026 is a pivotal year for the ZUSDURI launch, and we are encouraged by the early post-J Code trajectory. As expected, we are seeing an acceleration across key launch indicators, including physician uptake and adoption. We believe ZUSDURI is well positioned to address a significant unmet need and represents a greater than $1 billion peak sales opportunity.”
Ms. Barrett continued, “We are advancing our pipeline with meaningful momentum across our next-generation clinical programs, UGN-103 and UGN-104. The UTOPIA trial evaluating UGN-103 demonstrated compelling complete response results consistent with the ENVISION trial, and we remain on-track to submit an NDA in the second half of 2026. We also plan to explore label expansion opportunities for UGN-103, including in high-grade NMIBC settings and as an adjuvant to TURBT in IR-NMIBC patients. Following the refinancing of our term loan agreement with Pharmakon, we have further strengthened our balance sheet, and believe we are well-positioned to execute on our long-term growth strategy and build upon our leadership in uro-oncology.”
Q4 2025 and Recent Business Highlights:
ZUSDURI (mitomycin) for intravesical solution:
JELMYTO (mitomycin) for pyelocalyceal solution in low-grade upper tract urothelial cancer (LG-UTUC):
Next-generation novel mitomycin-based formulation for urothelial cancers
UGN-501 (investigational next-gen oncolytic virus) for use in high-grade non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (HG-NMIBC)
Expanded Debt Facility with Pharmakon Advisors
Full Year 2025 Financial Results
Revenue: Total revenue was $109.8 million for the full year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $90.4 million for the full year ended December 31, 2024. The 21% year-over-year increase was primarily driven by the commercial launch of ZUSDURI in 2025 and JELMYTO revenue growth.
R&D Expenses: Research and development (R&D) expenses were $67.1 million for the full year ended December 31, 2025, including non-cash shared-based compensation expense of $2.3 million. This compares to $57.1 million, including non-cash shared-based compensation expense of $2.2 million, for the full year ended December 31, 2024. The increase in R&D expenses was primarily driven by higher ZUSDURI manufacturing costs, which are recognized as R&D expenses prior to receiving FDA approval, costs associated with the Phase 3 trials for UGN-103 and UGN-104, and the acquisition of UGN-501, partially offset by lower clinical trial costs and regulatory expenses in connection with ZUSDURI.
SG&A Expenses: Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses were $155.1 million for the full year ended December 31, 2025, including non-cash shared-based compensation expense of $9.6 million. This compares to $121.2 million, including non-cash shared-based compensation expense of $10.9 million, for the full year ended December 31, 2024. The increase in SG&A expenses was primarily driven by ZUSDURI commercial activities, including the sales force expansion following ZUSDURI approval in 2025, as well as an increase in overall commercial operation costs.
Financing on Prepaid Forward Obligation: UroGen reported non-cash financing expense related to the prepaid forward obligation to RTW Investments of $18.5 million and $23.4 million for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The decrease was driven primarily by changes in underlying assumptions for remeasuring the effective interest rate.
Interest Expense on Long-term Debt: Interest expense related to the prior $125 million term loan facility with funds managed by Pharmakon Advisors was $15.3 million and $12.5 million for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The increase was primarily attributed to the interest expense on the $25 million third tranche of the loan that was funded in September 2024.
Net Loss: UroGen reported a net loss of $153.5 million or ($3.19) per basic and diluted share for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared with a net loss of $126.9 million or ($2.96) per basic and diluted share for the year ended December 31, 2024.
Cash, Cash Equivalents and Marketable Securities: As of December 31, 2025, cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities totaled $120.5 million.
2026 JELMYTO Sales and Company Operating Expense Guidance: Guidance for full-year 2026 net product sales for JELMYTO are expected to be in the range of $97 million to $101 million. This implies a year-over-year growth rate of approximately 3% to 7% over the $94 million of JELMYTO sales reported in 2025. The Company is not providing full-year 2026 sales guidance for ZUSDURI at this time, as the product remains in the early stages of its commercial launch. Full-year 2026 operating expenses are expected to be in the range of $240 million to $250 million, including non-cash share-based compensation expense of $20 million to $24 million.

About ZUSDURI
ZUSDURI (mitomycin) for intravesical solution is an innovative drug formulation of mitomycin, approved for the treatment of adults with recurrent LG-IR-NMIBC. Utilizing UroGen’s proprietary RTGel technology, a sustained release, hydrogel-based formulation, ZUSDURI is delivered directly into the bladder in an out-patient procedure by a trained healthcare professional using a urinary catheter to enable the treatment of tumors by non-surgical means.
APPROVED USE FOR ZUSDURI
ZUSDURI (mitomycin) for intravesical solution is a prescription medicine used to treat adults with a type of cancer of the lining of the bladder called low-grade intermediate risk non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (LG-IR-NMIBC) after previously receiving bladder surgery to remove tumor that did not work or is no longer working.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
You should not receive ZUSDURI if you have a hole or tear (perforation) of your bladder or if you have had an allergic reaction to mitomycin or to any of the ingredients in ZUSDURI.
Before receiving ZUSDURI, tell your healthcare provider about all of your medical conditions, including if you:
How will I receive ZUSDURI?
After receiving ZUSDURI:
The most common side effects of ZUSDURI include: increased blood creatinine levels, increased blood potassium levels, trouble with urination, decreased red blood cell counts, increase in certain blood liver tests, increased or decreased white blood cell counts, urinary tract infection, and blood in your urine.
You are encouraged to report negative side effects of prescription drugs to the FDA.
Visit www.fda.gov/medwatch or call 1-800-FDA-1088. You may also report side effects to UroGen Pharma at 1-855-987-6436.
Please see ZUSDURI Full Prescribing Information, including the Patient Information, for additional information.
About JELMYTO
JELMYTO® (mitomycin) for pyelocalyceal solution is a mitomycin-containing reverse thermal gel containing 4 mg mitomycin per mL gel indicated for the treatment of adult patients with LG-UTUC. It is recommended for primary treatment of biopsy-proven LG-UTUC in patients deemed appropriate candidates for renal-sparing therapy. JELMYTO is a viscous liquid when cooled and becomes a semi-solid gel at body temperature. The drug slowly dissolves over four to six hours after instillation and is removed from the urinary tract by normal urine flow and voiding. It is approved for administration in a retrograde manner via ureteral catheter or antegrade through nephrostomy tube. The delivery system allows the initial liquid to coat and conform to the upper urinary tract anatomy. The eventual semisolid gel allows for chemoablative therapy to remain in the collecting system for four to six hours without immediately being diluted or washed away by urine flow.
APPROVED USE FOR JELMYTO
JELMYTO® is a prescription medicine used to treat adults with a type of cancer of the lining of the upper urinary tract including the kidney called low-grade Upper Tract Urothelial Cancer (LG-UTUC).
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
You should not receive JELMYTO if you have a hole or tear (perforation) of your bladder or upper urinary tract.
Before receiving JELMYTO, tell your healthcare provider about all your medical conditions, including if you:
You are encouraged to report negative side effects of prescription drugs to the FDA. Visit www.fda.gov/medwatch or call 1-800-FDA-1088. You may also report side effects to UroGen Pharma at 1-855-987-6436.
Please see JELMYTO Full Prescribing Information, including the Patient Information, for additional information.
