                                    2025 Revenue Growth::
                                                Total revenues reached $3.22 billion (+13%), driven by 9% enzyme therapies growth ($2.225–$2.275B guidance for 2026) and 26% Voxzogo revenue ($927M; $975M–$1.025B guidance for 2026).

Segment Performance

The strong performance was largely driven by the continued adoption of Voxzogo, which generated $927 million in revenue for the full year, a 26% increase over 2024. Enzyme therapies also demonstrated durability and reach across the company's 80-country footprint. For 2026, the company expects enzyme therapies revenue to range between $2.225 billion to $2.275 billion, and Voxzogo revenue to be between $975 million to $1.025 billion, representing high single-digit growth rates for both business units.

Pipeline Updates and Future Prospects

The company is making significant progress in its pipeline, with multiple meaningful milestones anticipated in the coming year. BioMarin is preparing to submit the full approval package for Voxzogo in achondroplasia and is set to begin enrollment in a Phase II/III study of BMN 333, a next-generation, long-acting CNP therapy. As Gregory Friberg noted, "We present a comprehensive story around final adult height and broader health and wellness outcomes for Voxzogo's patient population." Analysts estimate next year's revenue growth at 10.8%.

Valuation Metrics

With a P/E Ratio of 23.11, P/S Ratio of 3.89, and EV/EBITDA of 14.65, the market appears to be pricing in a certain level of growth for BioMarin Pharmaceutical. The company's ROE of 8.69% and ROIC of 6.9% suggest a relatively efficient use of capital. The current valuation metrics indicate that the market has high expectations for the company's future performance, but the anticipated growth in revenues and pipeline progress could potentially justify these levels.
