Lantheus posts Q3 2026 results and pauses guidance amid pending merger

Lantheus Holdings reported third‑quarter 2026 revenue of $389.9 million, a 1.5% year‑over‑year increase, and GAAP diluted earnings of $0.33 per share. Adjusted diluted EPS rose to $1.68, beating expectations, while net income fell to $22.4 million. The company announced FDA approvals for TAUKLARIFY and BRAVNETSA and said it is suspending its 2026 financial guidance while a merger with Curium US Holdings proceeds, under which Curium will pay $102.50 in cash per share at closing and may issue additional contingent value rights worth up to $12.00 per share.

The suspension of guidance leaves investors without forward‑looking financial targets until the merger closes, increasing uncertainty about future performance. The agreed acquisition price of $102.50 per share, plus potential CVR payments, defines the valuation that shareholders will receive if the deal is completed.
