Analysis
Innoviva, Inc. delivered a strong annual performance in 2025, marked by significant growth in net product sales and a substantial increase in net income. The company's net product sales surged by 77% to $172.1 million, driven by successful commercialization efforts for GIAPREZA, XACDURO, and the launch of ZEVTERA.
