  • Epuris sales grew 14% year-over-year to $4.1 million in Q2 2026 and 4% sequentially from Q1 2026.

  • Letter of Intent with pan-Canadian Pharmaceutical Alliance expands public reimbursement for Epuris, expected to drive further market share growth in Canada.

  • Business development remains a key focus, with active pursuit of product in-licensing, out-licensing, and strategic acquisitions.

excellent app, it gives me free access to company earnings calls and annual reports. I also love the convenience of calls being available offline so I can listen in whilst doing other things and even when internet or WiFi isn't available.

One of the very few apps you could call perfect. If something was to add to it, maybe the share price of the company when you search for it, but it's already excellent.
