Revenue came in at $1.02 billion, beating the $869.89 million consensus by 16.80%, though the figure still represents a 45.2% decline year-over-year as the company continues navigating a post-pandemic reset in COVID vaccination demand. The primary engine was $971 million in COVID vaccine sales, with the U.S. Accounting for $781 million of that total. Cost of sales fell sharply to just 21% of net product sales, down from 28% a year ago, underscoring the cost discipline driving the beat. Looking ahead, Moderna narrowed its full-year 2025 revenue guidance to $1.60–$2.00 billion while raising its year-end cash projection to $6.50–$7.00 billion, bolstered by a recently secured $1.5 billion credit facility as the company targets cash breakeven by 2028.

Key Takeaways

  • COVID vaccine sales of $971 million driven by successful launch of mNEXSPIKE for 2025-2026 respiratory virus season
  • Cost of sales as percentage of net product sales improved to 21% from 28% due to manufacturing productivity gains
  • R&D expenses decreased 30% year-over-year through investment prioritization and clinical trial efficiencies
  • Ongoing cost-reduction initiatives improved expected 2025 operating expenses by $0.7 billion
