Third-quarter figures sharpen picture
Wave recognized USD 13.2 million in revenue for the third quarter of 2026, up from USD 7.6 million in the third quarter of 2025. Net loss reached USD 61.9 million, compared with USD 53.9 million in the prior-year quarter, while research and development expenses rose to USD 53.8 million from USD 45.9 million.
The figures show a company still funding a costly clinical pipeline while collaboration revenue provides support. Wave's third-quarter diluted loss was USD 0.30 per share, compared with USD 0.32 in the third quarter of 2025.
Cash runway supports pipeline work

The main clinical focus remains WVE-006 for alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency and WVE-007 for obesity. Wave said a clinical trial application for WVE-008 in PNPLA3 liver disease remains on track for the fourth quarter of 2026.
