What the Analysts think about ACAD

Analyst ratings (Buy, Hold, Sell) for ACADIA Pharmaceuticals stock.

Bulls say / Bears say

Second quarter 2025 total revenues rose 9% year-over-year to $264.6 million, driven by a 7% increase in NUPLAZID and 14% growth in DAYBUE sales, and the company raised the low end of Nuplazid guidance for 2025 (Business Wire)
The U.S. Court of Appeals upheld Acadia’s composition-of-matter and formulation patents for pimavanserin, securing exclusivity for Nuplazid through 2030 and its capsule formulation until 2038, strengthening long-term revenue protection (Reuters)
Acadia hosted its inaugural R&D Day in June 2025, showcasing nine disclosed programs and detailing plans for seven Phase 2 or Phase 3 studies to initiate during 2025–2026, underscoring the depth and potential of its CNS and rare disease pipeline (Business Wire)
ACAD trades at approximately 87.97x forward P/E and 2.97x price-to-sales, materially above the biotechnology sector norms, indicating a stretched valuation that could limit upside if growth slows (Reuters)
Selling, general and administrative expenses jumped 14% year-over-year to $133.5 million in Q2 2025, outpacing revenue growth and exerting pressure on operating margins (Business Wire)
Key pipeline catalyst—top-line results for the Phase 3 COMPASS PWS study of ACP-101—are not expected until early Q4 2025, leaving the stock exposed to volatility in the absence of near-term positive news (Business Wire)
