SHANGHAI & CAMBRIDGE, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--February 26, 2026-- 

Zai Lab Limited (NASDAQ: ZLAB; HKEX: 9688) today announced financial results for the fourth quarter and full-year 2025, along with recent product highlights and corporate updates.

"2025 was a year of disciplined execution across both engines of our business with significant advancement across our global innovation pipeline and steady progress in our commercial business," said Dr. Samantha Du, Founder, Chairperson and Chief Executive Officer of Zai Lab. "We accelerated multiple global programs, including the rapid progression of zoci into pivotal development, enabled by our integrated U.S./China infrastructure which allows us to operate with speed and capital efficiency. In 2026, our focus is on executing against important catalysts -- advancing late-stage immunology and oncology programs while preparing for the next wave of commercial growth. Together, these efforts mark an important step in Zai Lab's continued evolution into a global biopharma leader."

"KarXT represents a significant new growth driver for Zai Lab, and its recent inclusion in a national expert consensus underscores the growing recognition of its novel mechanism and potential to meaningfully impact patients living with schizophrenia," said Josh Smiley, President and Chief Operating Officer of Zai Lab. "We are strengthening the VYVGART franchise by expanding hospital coverage and supporting longer treatment persistence. Concurrently, we are preparing for the potential approvals of TIVDAK, which would further strengthen our women's health franchise, and TTFields in pancreatic cancer. Looking beyond 2026, the combination of new launches, potential label expansions and advancing global programs, positions us for multi-year growth and continued financial improvement."

Fourth Quarter and Full-Year 2025 Financial Results

   --  Total revenue was $127.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2025 and 
      $460.2 million for the full-year 2025. Product revenue, net was $127.1 
      million in the fourth quarter of 2025, compared to $108.5 million for the 
      same period in 2024, representing 17% y-o-y growth and 16% at constant 
      exchange rate (CER); and was $457.2 million in full-year 2025, compared 
      to $397.6 million for the same period in 2024, representing 15% y-o-y 
      growth and 16% y-o-y growth at CER. This increase was primarily due to 
      higher revenue for XACDURO and NUZYRA. 

-- ZEJULA was $56.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2025, an increase of 16% y-o-y from $48.4 million; and was $189.0 million in full-year 2025, compared to $187.1 million for the same period in 2024. ZEJULA continued to be the leading PARP inhibitor in hospital sales for ovarian cancer despite evolving competitive dynamics within the PARPi class in mainland China.

-- VYVGART and VYVGART Hytrulo were $21.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2025 which includes a $5.6 million rebate for VYVGART related to the National Reimbursement Drug List (NRDL) renewal, compared to $30.0 million for the same period in 2024; and was $94.2 million in full-year 2025, compared to $93.6 million for the same period in 2024.

-- XACDURO, which was launched in the fourth quarter of 2024, was $10.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2025, an increase of 225% y-o-y from $3.3 million; and was $22.9 million in full-year 2025, an increase of 593% y-o-y from $3.3 million. Growth was driven by strong patient demand and expanding hospital adoption but was partially constrained by supply limitations during the year.

-- NUZYRA was $16.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2025, an increase of 45% y-o-y from $11.0 million; and was $60.8 million in full-year 2025, an increase of 41% y-o-y from $43.2 million. This growth was supported by increased market coverage and penetration.

   --  Research and Development (R&D) expenses were $61.6 million in the 
      fourth quarter of 2025, compared to $52.3 million for the same period in 
      2024, and $220.9 million for full-year 2025, compared to $234.5 million 
      for the same period in 2024. The fourth-quarter increase resulted from 
      progress in clinical trials. The full year decline was primarily driven 
      by lower personnel compensation due to strategic resource optimization. 
 
   --  Selling, General and Administrative (SG&A) expenses were $73.0 million 
      in the fourth quarter of 2025, compared to $82.6 million for the same 
      period in 2024, and $277.6 million for full-year 2025, compared to $298.7 
      million for the same period in 2024. The decrease was primarily due to a 
      reduction in general and administrative expenses due to strategic 
      resource optimization. 
   --  Loss from operations was $69.4 million and $229.4 million in the fourth 
      quarter of 2025 and full-year 2025, respectively, and $49.6 million and 
      $148.8 million, respectively, when adjusted to exclude non-cash expenses, 
      including depreciation, amortization, and share-based compensation. Loss 
      from operations was $67.9 million and $282.1 million in the fourth 
      quarter of 2024 and full-year 2024, respectively. A reconciliation of 
      loss from operations (GAAP) to adjusted loss from operations (non-GAAP) 
      is included at the end of this release. 
   --  Net loss was $50.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2025, or a loss per 
      ordinary share attributable to common stockholders of $0.05 (or loss per 
      American Deposit Share (ADS) of $0.46), compared to a net loss of $81.7 
      million for the same period in 2024 or a loss per ordinary share of $0.08 
      (or loss per ADS of $0.80). The net loss was $175.5 million for full-year 
      2025, or a loss per ordinary share attributable to common stockholders of 
      $0.16 (or loss per ADS of $1.60), compared to a net loss of $257.1 
      million for full-year 2024, or a loss per ordinary share of $0.26 (or 
      loss per ADS of $2.60). These decreases in net loss were primarily due to 
      product revenue growing faster than net operating expenses and shift from 
      foreign currency losses to foreign currency gains, offset by decreased 
      interest income. 
   --  Cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments and current 
      restricted cash totaled $789.6 million as of December 31, 2025, compared 
      to $879.7 million as of December 31, 2024.
