Negative Impact 4 of 5 earnings Written later

Arcus Biosciences reported second-quarter 2026 revenue of $41 million, down from $160 million a year earlier, and a net loss of $91 million, compared with break-even results in the same period of 2025. The company expects GAAP revenue of $65 million to $75 million for full-year 2026 and ended the quarter with $775 million in cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities.

Key points

  • Q2 2026 revenue was $41 million versus $160 million in Q2 2025, mainly because 2025 included a $143 million catch-up from license and development services revenue tied to etrumadenant.
  • Q2 2026 net loss was $91 million, or $0.72 per share; six-month net loss was $219 million, or $1.74 per share.
  • Full-year 2026 GAAP revenue is expected at $65 million to $75 million, and year-end 2026 cash is expected to be about $600 million.
  • Gilead relinquished its three Board of Directors seats effective August 5, 2026, following the wind-down of Phase 3 anti-TIGIT studies.
