Market reactionShares fell 10% on Nov 5.
Milestone Pharmaceuticals sells CARDAMYST, a nasal spray patients use themselves to stop sudden fast-heartbeat episodes (PSVT); it is approved in the U.S. and China.
Milestone's case depends on scaling CARDAMYST's U.S. PSVT launch as insurance coverage widens. Early prescriptions grew, but limited sales and launch spending keep financing pressure central. China approval adds partner milestones and potential royalties, while a European decision is expected in the first half of 2027. ReVeRA-301 is enrolling for AFib-RVR, offering expansion potential. Management expects cash to fund operations into the second half of 2027. The small RAPID prior-ablation subgroup adds clinical support without changing these commercial priorities.
