The current read
Initial read: cautious, but no longer dismissive at roughly $18–19 per share. Sarepta is now a cash-flow transition story built on a durable PMO franchise, a much smaller and more volatile ELEVIDYS opportunity, and early siRNA optionality—not the broad gene-therapy growth story investors owned before the 2025 safety events.
- Second-quarter 2026 net product revenue was $328.7 million: $230.6 million from the three PMOs and $98.1 million from ELEVIDYS. PMO revenue was essentially flat year over year, while ELEVIDYS fell by roughly two-thirds after the label was restricted to ambulatory patients aged four years and older; narrowed 2026 product-revenue guidance of $1.2–1.3 billion implies $541–641 million in the second half after $659 million in the first.
- Cost cuts have made the reduced revenue base operable: Q2 produced $13.3 million of GAAP operating income and $86.5 million of non-GAAP operating income, although GAAP net income was still slightly negative. June liquidity was $945 million against $848 million of long-term debt, but the headline net-cash view is too generous because the balance sheet also carries about $1.13 billion of inventory, much of it accumulated for a larger ELEVIDYS franchise.
- The new upside case is the αvβ6-targeted siRNA platform. SRP-1001 and SRP-1003 have shown dose-dependent muscle exposure, early target knockdown and no dose-limiting toxicity in small Phase 1/2 cohorts, but the 2H26 multiple-ascending-dose readouts must establish reproducible pharmacodynamic depth before these programs deserve material clinical value.
- ELEVIDYS should be underwritten as a constrained ambulatory product with a boxed warning for serious liver injury and acute liver failure, weekly post-infusion monitoring and uneven quarterly revenue—not as a return to the pre-2025 addressable market. At the current equity value of roughly $1.9 billion, the stock can work if the PMO base remains stable, ELEVIDYS settles near a sustainable run rate and one siRNA program becomes credible; it does not require a restoration of the old gene-therapy thesis.
