Generated $63.4 million in revenue from durable royalties portfolio
IST achieved U.S. net product sales of $29.9 million, representing 52% year-over-year growth
Strengthened product portfolio with U.S. launch of ZEVTERA®
Announced $125 million share repurchase program
Innoviva, Inc. (NASDAQ: INVA) (“Innoviva” or the “Company”), a diversified holding company with a core royalties portfolio, a leading critical care and infectious disease platform known as Innoviva Specialty Therapeutics (“IST”), and a portfolio of strategic investments in healthcare assets, today reported financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2025, and highlighted select corporate progress and achievements.
“Innoviva delivered strong third-quarter performance across each area of our business. The royalties portfolio reaffirmed its resilience with 5% growth compared to last year, while IST delivered a third consecutive quarter of greater than 50% year-over-year U.S. sales growth. We are encouraged by early market receptivity for ZEVTERA® following its U.S. launch over the summer and look forward to zoliflodacin’s December 15 PDUFA date,” said Pavel Raifeld, Chief Executive Officer of Innoviva.
“Across the broader portfolio, we saw meaningful value creation from our strategic investments, including Armata Pharmaceuticals, and continued to thoughtfully deploy capital in areas of opportunity and market dislocation. The $125 million share repurchase program underscores our confidence in Innoviva’s prospects, supported by the strength of our balance sheet and cashflows, as we strive to create value for our shareholders,” concluded Mr. Raifeld.

The timing and amount of any share repurchases under the share repurchase program will be subject to the Securities and Exchange Commission Rule 10b-18 and Rule 10b5-1 requirements and will be determined by Innoviva’s management in its discretion based on ongoing assessments of the capital needs of the business, the market price of Innoviva’s common stock, prevailing stock prices, general market conditions, and other considerations. Share repurchases under the program may be made through a variety of methods, which may include open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions, in block trades, accelerated share repurchase transactions, exchange transactions, or any combination thereof or by other means in accordance with federal securities laws. This program has no termination date, may be suspended or discontinued at any time at the Company’s discretion, and does not obligate the Company to acquire any amount of common stock.
