Management to host conference call today at 2:30 PM CET (8:30 AM ET)
October 22, 2026 7:00 AM CET
Amsterdam, the Netherlands – argenx SE (Euronext & Nasdaq: ARGX), the immunology innovation company, today announced its third quarter 2026 results and provided a business update.
“The story of argenx is one of continued innovation, growth and impact,” said Karen Massey, Chief Executive Officer. “VYVGART is the foundation of our business and continues to deliver strong performance across gMG and CIDP, with significant opportunity still ahead as we reach more patients, expand into new indications, and advance the next wave of FcRn medicines. The positive results from our Phase 3 ALKIVIA study further reinforce the potential of VYVGART beyond neurology, and underscore how much more it can deliver for patients. The upcoming Phase 3 readout for empasiprubart in MMN, the advancement of FB102, and progress across our emerging immunology pipeline are bringing the next chapter of argenx into focus as we build a global immunology innovator positioned for durable growth and value creation well beyond Vision 2030.”
Vision 2030
argenx remains on track to achieve its ‘Vision 2030’ anchored in the ambition to treat 50,000 patients globally with its medicines, secure 10 labeled indications, and progress five pipeline candidates into registrational development by 2030.
Realizing the full potential of VYVGART and advancing FcRn leadership
VYVGART® (IV: efgartigimod alfa-fcab; SC: efgartigimod alfa and hyaluronidase-qvfc) is the first-and-only approved treatment for all adult patients living with generalized myasthenia gravis (gMG). It is also approved for chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP) globally, and primary immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) in Japan. Building on VYVGART’s leadership in MG and CIDP, argenx is progressing multiple label and indication expansions, exploring VYVGART’s potential in additional autoimmune diseases through proof-of-concept studies, and advancing next-generation FcRn molecules and delivery modalities.
•Generated $1.7 billion in global product net sales in the third quarter of 2026, representing 54% year-over-year growth and 13% quarter-over-quarter growth
•Submitted a Supplemental Biologics License Application (sBLA) for VYVGART in ocular myasthenia gravis (oMG) to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA)
•sBLA for VYVGART and VYVGART Hytrulo in pediatric gMG accepted for priority review by the FDA, with a PDUFA target action date in February 2027
•VYVGART Hytrulo autoinjector expected to launch in second half of 2027 for all approved indications
•Reported positive Phase 3 ALKIVIA results with consistent and clinically meaningful treatment effects observed across immune-mediated necrotizing myopathy (IMNM) and dermatomyositis (DM); sBLA for VYVGART Hytrulo in IMNM on track for submission by year-end 2026, supported by Breakthrough Therapy Designation, with plans to conduct an additional registrational study in DM.
•Topline results from Phase 3 ADVANCE-NEXT study in primary ITP expected in first half of 2027
•Phase 3 VitaliThy studies in Graves’ disease ongoing;
•Advancing the future FcRn portfolio, including Phase 3-ready ARGX-213, designed for monthly dosing, and ARGX-124 currently in Phase 1 development
Advancing empasiprubart, argenx’s second pipeline-in-a-product opportunity
Empasiprubart (anti-C2) is argenx’s second pipeline-in-a-product opportunity and is being evaluated in Phase 3 studies in multifocal motor neuropathy (MMN) and CIDP, with additional Phase 2 studies exploring its potential in other indications and in combination with VYVGART in gMG.
•Topline results from the Phase 3 EMPASSION study (MMN) expected in December 2026
•Topline results from Phase 3 EMVIGORATE and EMNERGIZE studies in CIDP anticipated in the second half of 2027
•Phase 2 ADAPT-Forward platform study in gMG ongoing, evaluating empasiprubart as an add-on to efgartigimod and as monotherapy to support combination development pathway
Delivering next wave of immunology innovation
Beyond the FcRn portfolio and empasiprubart, argenx is advancing a differentiated immunology pipeline that includes FB102 (CD122), adimanebart (MuSK), ARGX-121 (IgA), ARGX-109 (IL-6), TSP-101 (Fn14), ARGX-118 (Galectin-10) and ARGX-125 (undisclosed target), together with additional candidates emerging from the Immunology Innovation Program. These programs support argenx’s ambition to build multiple pillars of sustainable growth beyond Vision 2030.

Such non-IFRS financial information, as calculated herein, may not be comparable to similarly named measures used by other companies and should not be considered comparable to IFRS financial measures. Non-IFRS financial measures have limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, an analysis of the company's financial results as reported under IFRS.
A reconciliation of the IFRS financial information to non-IFRS financial information is included below:
Cash, cash equivalents and current financial assets totaled $3.7 billion as of September 30, 2026, compared to $4.4 billion as of December 31, 2025. The balance as of the period ended September 30, 2026 consisted of $2.6 billion in cash and cash equivalents and $1.1 billion in current financial assets and the balance as of the period ended December 31, 2025 consisted of $3.5 billion in cash and cash equivalents and $0.9 billion in current financial assets.

Alternative Performance Measure Statement In this document, argenx's financial results are provided in accordance with IFRS® Accounting Standards (IFRS) and using the following non-IFRS financial measures, or Alternative Performance Measures (APMs): (i) cash, cash equivalents and current financial assets and (ii) adjusted operating profit margin. These measures should not be viewed as a substitute for the company's IFRS financial information. They are provided as a complement to financial information prepared in accordance with IFRS and should be read alongside the most directly comparable IFRS financial information, as set out below. Cash, cash equivalents and current financial assets: Management believes this non-IFRS financial measure is useful for securities analysts, investors and other interested parties to gain a more complete understanding of the company's available financial liquidities given that the company’s current financial assets are held in term accounts with an initial maturity of more than three months but less than twelve that may be used to meet its financial obligations. Adjusted operating profit margin: Management believes this measure helps securities analysts, investors and other interested parties understand the company's operating profit margin excluding expenses related directly to a specific business combination and do not reflect the company's ongoing profit margin. Such non-IFRS financial information, as calculated herein, may not be comparable to similarly named measures used by other companies and should not be considered comparable to IFRS financial measures. Non-IFRS financial measures have limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, an analysis of the company's financial results as reported under IFRS. Cash, cash equivalents and current financial assets totaled $3.7 billion as of September 30, 2026, compared to $4.4 billion as of December 31, 2025. The balance as of September 30, 2026 consisted of $2.6 billion in cash and cash equivalents and $1.1 billion in current financial assets. The balance as of December 31, 2025 consisted of $3.5 billion in cash and cash equivalents and $0.9 billion in current financial assets. 14 Q2 2026Q3 2026in millions of $, except percentages 493486Operating profit [IFRS] 33%28%Operating profit margin [IFRS] –150Add: Forte acquisition-related transaction expenses 493636Adjusted operating profit [Non-IFRS] 33%37%Adjusted operating profit margin [Non-IFRS]
