In its fiscal 2026 first quarter earnings report, Aytu BioPharma announced a total net revenue of $13.9 million and a net income of $2.0 million. The company is preparing for the commercial launch of EXXUA, a novel treatment for MDD, which is expected to significantly impact the company’s growth as it enters the $22 billion U.S. prescription MDD market. Key financial highlights include a net income increase from $1.5 million in the previous year to $2.0 million, despite a decrease in net revenue from $16.6 million due to a one-time rebate in the prior year.
