Alkermes reported first-quarter 2026 revenue of $392.9 million, up from $306.5 million a year earlier, after completing its Avadel acquisition in February 2026. The company posted a GAAP net loss of $66.5 million, compared with net income of $22.5 million a year earlier, and improved its 2026 GAAP net loss and EBITDA expectations, while revenue expectations were unchanged. For shareholders, revenue growth is offset by a larger GAAP loss driven by acquisition-related costs and amortization.
