Bulls say / Bears say
Basilea delivered strong H1 2026 momentum, with revenue up 14% to CHF 119.0 million, operating profit up 32% to CHF 31.6 million, and net profit up 77% to CHF 27.9 million; it also raised its full-year operating-profit growth guidance to approximately 40%. (Basilea Pharmaceutica)
The commercial franchise is scaling: global in-market Cresemba sales rose 27% year over year, while the U.S. rollout of Zevtera is gaining hospital adoption; Basilea now expects Cresemba- and Zevtera-related revenue of approximately CHF 210 million in 2026. (Basilea Pharmaceutica)
Financial flexibility has improved materially: cash and restricted cash reached CHF 176.0 million at June 30, 2026, net cash rose to CHF 105.3 million, and outstanding debt was reduced to CHF 71.0 million, supporting further pipeline investment without immediate equity financing pressure. (Basilea Pharmaceutica)
R&D spending rose 41% year over year to CHF 54.0 million in H1 2026, while operating cash flow declined to CHF 19.0 million from CHF 23.1 million, indicating that pipeline investment and working-capital needs are absorbing cash. (Basilea Pharmaceutica)
Fosmanogepix remains a long-dated, binary value driver: Phase 3 data and the planned regulatory submission are not expected until 2028, leaving meaningful clinical, regulatory, and execution risk before potential commercialization. (Basilea Pharmaceutica)
The revenue mix is increasingly dependent on contract and other revenue: in H1 2026, contract revenue of CHF 62.4 million exceeded product revenue of CHF 29.9 million, exposing results to partner performance, milestone timing, and external funding flows. (Basilea Pharmaceutica)
