Grounding quotes
  • “We were surprised by the FDA's decision.”
  • “the Federal Circuit Court of Appeals ruled against us in our lawsuit to stop Teva Pharmaceuticals from marketing a generic version of Korlym in violation of our patents”
  • “Outcomes from that meeting range from resubmission of our NDA, perhaps including additional analyses from our NDA's rich data set to filing a formal appeal with the FDA's Office of New Drugs to deciding we need to conduct a new study.”
  • “The headwinds created by this transition work have subsided.”

Key takeaways

What improved, and what deserves a closer read.

Constructive signals

  • 2025 revenue grew to $761.4M from $675.0M, and 2026 guidance is $900M–$1,000M.
  • Q4 2025 revenue rose to $202.1M from $181.9M in Q4 2024.
  • Record number of new prescriptions and first-time prescribers in 2025, with tablets sold up 37% year-over-year.
  • New specialty pharmacy transition is complete, with February on track to be a record month for new patient starts.
  • Relacorilant plus nab-paclitaxel in ROSELLA showed half the ALT elevations versus nab-paclitaxel alone and a hazard ratio of 0.76 in their data.
  • Relacorilant NDA in platinum-resistant ovarian cancer has a PDUFA date of July 11, 2026, supported by final ROSELLA overall survival results.

Risks & pressure points

  • Federal Circuit ruled against Corcept in its patent suit seeking to stop Teva from marketing a generic Korlym; Corcept plans to appeal.
  • FDA issued a complete response letter for relacorilant in Cushing's syndrome, citing liver enzyme elevation; outcomes range from resubmission to a possible new study.
  • Net income declined to $99.7M in 2025 from $141.2M in 2024, with diluted EPS down to $0.82 from $1.23.
  • Q4 2025 net income fell to $24.3M ($0.20 diluted EPS) from $30.7M ($0.26 diluted EPS) in Q4 2024.
  • New prescriptions rose 61% but tablets sold only grew 37% due to prior pharmacy capacity constraints and Q4 transition disruptions.
  • $245.9M was spent in 2025 on share repurchases and net settlement of equity awards, contributing to lower cash and investments ($532.4M vs. $603.2M).
