Gyre Therapeutics Reports Third Quarter 2025 and Year-to-Date Financial Results and Provides Business Update

Full-year revenue guidance revised to $115-118 million (from $118 - $128 million previously) due to delayed Etorel® (Nintedanib) rollout and government procurement-related uncertainty

SAN DIEGO, Nov. 07, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Gyre Therapeutics (“Gyre”) (Nasdaq: GYRE), an innovative, commercial-stage biopharmaceutical company dedicated to advancing fibrosis-first therapies across organ systems affected by chronic disease, today announced financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2025 and provided a business update.

“Following the positive results from our pivotal Phase 3 trial in the PRC evaluating Hydronidone for the treatment of CHB-associated liver fibrosis, we are working diligently toward our NDA submission and are leveraging Hydronidone’s Breakthrough Therapy designation to bring this much-needed therapy to patients in China,” said Ping Zhang, Executive Chairman and Interim Chief Executive Officer of Gyre Therapeutics. “With enrollment now completed in our 52-week Phase 3 trial of pirfenidone for the treatment of pneumoconiosis, we continue to advance our pipeline in China. We are also preparing for U.S. clinical activities and expect to file the U.S. IND for Hydronidone for the treatment of MASH-associated liver fibrosis in 2026, supported by the translation and regulatory-quality review of our China Phase 2 and Phase 3 trial data and an upcoming hepatic impairment study.”

ETUARY® (pirfenidone):Generated $27.7 million in sales of ETUARY® for the quarter ended September 30, 2025, compared to $25.3 million for the same period in 2024.

Etorel® (nintedanib ethanesulfonate soft capsules):Generated $1.5 million in sales of Etorel® for the quarter ended September 30, 2025, the first full quarter of launch.

As of September 30, 2025, Gyre held $40.4 million in cash and cash equivalents, $19.6 million in short-term bank deposits, and $20.3 million in long-term certificates of deposit, totaling $80.3 million.

Full-year revenue guidance revised from $118–128 million to $115–118 million,reflecting slower-than-expected commercialization of Etorel® (nintedanib) due to early supply chain and distribution challenges, as well as increased market uncertainty related to China’s centralized procurement policy leading to more cautious purchasing behavior in the second half of the year, partially offset by stronger-than-expected ETUARY® sales.

Please note that the revenue guidance assumes a constant foreign currency rate and no significant economic disruption or downturn.

Gyre reports financial results in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). This release presents the financial measure “adjusted net income,” which is not calculated in accordance with GAAP. The most directly comparable GAAP measure for this non-GAAP financial measure is “net income.” Adjusted net income presents Gyre’s results of operations after excluding gain from change in fair value of warrants, stock-based compensation, and provision for income taxes. This is meant to supplement, and not substitute, Gyre’s financial information presented in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted net income as defined by Gyre may not be comparable to similar non-GAAP measures presented by other companies. Management believes that presenting adjusted net income provides investors with additional useful information in evaluating the Gyre’s performance and valuation. See the reconciliation of adjusted net income to net income in the section titled “Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below.
