Immunotherapy company Biopharmaceutical New Technologies or BioNTech SE (BNTX) reported Tuesday a net loss of 531.9 million euros or 2.10 euros per share for the first quarter, wider than 415.8 million euros or 1.73 euros per share in the prior-year quarter.
Excluding items, adjusted net loss for the quarter was 1.95 euros per share, compared to adjusted net loss of 1.79 euros per share in the year-ago quarter.
Total revenues for the quarter decreased to 118.1 million euros from 182.8 million euros in the same quarter last year, primarily driven by lower revenues of BioNTechs COVID-19 vaccines.
Looking ahead to fiscal 2026, the company continues to project revenues between 2.0 billion to 2.3 billion euros.
BioNTech also said it anticipates lower COVID-19 vaccine revenues compared to 2025, driven by declines in both the European and United States markets.
The Management Board and Supervisory Board also expect to authorize a share repurchase program of BioNTechs American Depositary Shares (ADSs), pursuant to which the Company may repurchase ADSs in the amount of up to $1.0 billion over the next twelve months.
The program is designed to enhance capital efficiency and support long-term value creation to execute BioNTechs objective to become a multi-product company by 2030.
In Tuesday's pre-market trading, BNTX is trading on the Nasdaq at $96.70, down $2.65 or 2.67 percent.
