Key points
- Q4 2025 research and development expenses rose to $47.8 million from $25.7 million, partly due to HCV Phase 3 spending and a milestone under the Merck License Agreement.
- Full-year 2025 general and administrative expenses fell to $32.9 million from $48.8 million, mainly on lower stock-based compensation.
- Income tax benefits of $6.8 million in Q4 and $6.2 million for the full year were primarily from recognition of previously unrecognized tax benefits.
- C-BEYOND topline results are expected mid-2026 and C-FORWARD topline results around year-end 2026.
