BioMarin expects $283 million Alesta IPR&D charge, cutting Q3 2026 EPS by about $1.50
BioMarin said its third-quarter 2026 results will include about $283 million of acquired in-process R&D expense tied to its Alesta Therapeutics acquisition, completed August 31, 2026. The company estimates the charges reduce both GAAP and non-GAAP diluted EPS by about $1.50 for the quarter and about $1.55 for the full year, and it will update full-year 2026 guidance with its third-quarter results.
