Hansa Biopharma AB: Hansa Biopharma Report First Quarter 2026 Financial Results
- PDUFA target date set for December 19 by the FDA
- Runway significantly extended
Lund, Sweden, 23 April 2026. Hansa Biopharma AB, "Hansa" (Nasdaq Stockholm: HNSA), today announced its interim report January-March 2026.
Renée Aguiar-Lucander, CEO, Hansa Biopharma said, "In the first quarter of 2026, we continued to execute against our strategic priorities as we advanced imlifidase toward a potential U.S. approval of our Biologics License Application (BLA) with an assigned December 19 PDUFA[*] target date. Preparations for a potential U.S. launch progressed in parallel, while in Europe we saw the expected short term impact of the commercial reorganization and related initiatives. Quarterly revenues remain inherently variable due to structural issues related to organ allocation and as previously communicated we do not expect this to change in the medium term. Consequently, Q2 has had a strong start, and we believe that the benefits of the reorganization will support improved performance from the second quarter onward. During the quarter, we strengthened our financial position through a USD 30.0 million convertible note financing, significantly extending our runway and reinforcing our focus on disciplined financial and operational execution as we approach multiple near term value driving milestones."
Financial Performance
First-quarter Revenue totalled 34.6 MSEK compared to 66.3 MSEK in Q1 in 2025. IDEFIRIX product sales reached 33.9 MSEK, compared to 65.7 MSEK in Q1 2025.
Business Update
Imlifidase Biologics License Application (BLA) was accepted for review by the FDA and PDUFA* action date for the BLA is set for December 19, 2026.
On March 19, 2026, the Company entered into a USD 30.0 million convertible note purchase agreement with Athyrium Capital Management. The convertible note has a fixed interest rate of 3.0% payable semi-annually in cash beginning September 15, 2026, and a conversion premium of 25%. This transaction extends Hansa's cash runway and strengthens the company's balance sheet in advance of the planned U.S. launch. Including the convertible note, Hansa's cash and cash equivalents on March 31, 2026, totalled 676.5 MSEK or approximately USD 73.2 million.
Pipeline Progress
The results from ConfIdeS pivotal U.S. Phase 3 Trial (20-HMedIdeS-17) have been accepted as an oral presentation at the American Transplant Congress (ATC) in Boston in June 2026.
