Organization Organization
Krystal Biotech, Inc. (together with its wholly-owned subsidiaries, the “Company,” or “we” or other similar pronouns), a Delaware C-corporation, is a fully integrated, global, commercial-stage biotechnology company. We are focused on the discovery, development, manufacturing, and commercialization of genetic medicines to treat diseases with high unmet medical needs. Using our patented gene therapy technology platform that is based on engineered herpes simplex virus-1 (“HSV-1”), we create vectors that efficiently deliver therapeutic transgenes to cells of interest in multiple organ systems. The cell’s own machinery then transcribes and translates the transgene to treat the disease. Our vectors are amenable to formulation for non-invasive or minimally invasive routes of administration at a healthcare professional’s office or in the patient’s home. Our innovative technology platform is supported by two in-house, commercial scale Current Good Manufacturing Practice (“CGMP”) manufacturing facilities.
Liquidity
As of March 31, 2026, the Company had a retained earnings balance of $80.1 million. Our operating profitability is dependent upon the continued successful commercialization of VYJUVEK, our U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”), European Commission (“EC”), and Japan’s Ministry of Health, Labour, and Welfare (“MHLW”) approved product, as well as successful development, approval and commercialization of our product candidates. Management intends to fund future operations through its on hand cash and cash equivalents and revenue generated from the sale of VYJUVEK, and may also seek additional capital through arrangements with strategic partners, the sale of equity, debt financings or other sources.
The Company is subject to risks common to companies in the biotechnology industry, including, but not limited to, the failure of product candidates in clinical and preclinical studies, the development of competing product candidates or other technological innovations by competitors, dependence on key personnel, protection of proprietary technology, compliance with government regulations and the ability to commercialize product candidates. The Company expects to incur significant costs in connection with, among other things, advancing its product pipeline, expanding its commercialization capabilities, and complying with EU post-authorization regulatory requirements and EU member state-specific pricing, reimbursement, and market access activities. The Company believes that its cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments of approximately $823.4 million as of March 31, 2026 will be sufficient to allow the Company to fund its planned operations for at least the next 12 months from the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
