Latest analysis

Updated Jul 23, 2026

NovoCure posts record Q2 2026 revenue of $184M (+16% YoY), raises full-year guidance to $710M-$725M, and turns adjusted EBITDA positive for first time since 2024.

NovoCure's Q2 2026 results represent a clear commercial inflection: record net revenue of $184 million, driven by 11% YoY Optune Gio active patient growth, early Optune Pax prescription ramp, and Optune Lua's Japan launch. Management raised full-year revenue guidance to $710M-$725M (8%-11% growth) and adjusted EBITDA guidance to $0M-$15M, targeting full-year breakeven — a structural milestone. The concurrent LUNAR-2 trial redesign, expected to cut approximately $90 million in R&D spend, directly funds expanded pancreatic cancer programs and accelerates the path to profitability.

Read filing description ↓

We are a global oncology company with a proprietary platform technology called Tumor Treating Fields ('TTFields'), which are electric fields that exert physical forces to kill cancer cells. Our therapy is delivered through a medical device. Our key priorities are to drive commercial adoption of Optune Gio, Optune Lua, and Optune Pax, our commercial TTFields therapy devices, obtain regulatory approval to market TTFields therapy devices in new indications, such as brain metastases from non-small cell lung cancer ('NSCLC'), and to advance clinical and product development programs intended to extend overall survival in some of the most aggressive forms of cancer. Optune Gio is approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration ('FDA') under the Premarket Approval ('PMA') pathway for the treatment of adult patients with newly diagnosed glioblastoma ('GBM') together with temozolomide, and for adult patients with GBM following confirmed recurrence after chemotherapy as monotherapy treatment. Optune Lua is approved by the FDA under the PMA pathway for the treatment of adult patients with metastatic NSCLC concurrent with PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors or docetaxel following progression on or after a platinum-based regimen, and under the Humanitarian Device Exemption pathway for the treatment of adult patients with malignant pleural mesothelioma. Optune Pax is approved by the FDA under the PMA pathway for the treatment of adult patients with locally advanced pancreatic cancer concurrent with gemcitabine and nab-paclitaxel. We market our Products in multiple countries around the globe with the majority of our revenues coming from the use of Optune Gio in the U.S., Germany, France and Japan. We bill payers a single monthly fee for a month of therapy and bear the financial risk of securing payment from third-party payers in most markets.
