The company's aggressive innovation agenda is translating into impressive growth in both sales and earnings, setting the tone for the rest of the year and beyond.
VYVGART Expansion Fuels Earnings Surge and Global Reach

The quarter’s net sales rose by $554 million year-over-year, underscoring surging patient demand for new autoimmune disease treatments. Notably, VYVGART's self-injection device recently secured approval in Japan, and a Canadian decision is expected by year-end—further enhancing its accessibility and patient reach.
