Catalyst Q1 revenue jumps 20%, cash at $709M

Watch: Watch Q2 execution versus guidance and any updates on acquisitions as key drivers of re-acceleration potential or further deceleration.

Catalyst Pharmaceuticals posted Q1 2025 revenue of $589 million, up 19.8% year over year, driven by a 17% sales rise in its leading product FApps. The company holds $709.2 million in cash and has assessed over 100 acquisition targets this year. Insider selling is strong, highlighted by $11.5 million in share sales from a key insider at $23.20–23.55 per share.

Strong top-line growth and cash reserves underpin Catalyst's capacity for strategic expansion, but heavy insider selling and a downtrend in share price create near-term headwinds for momentum.
