Kisunla ramping inside a decaying legacy base. At $429M it is 1.9% of revenue, the smallest therapeutic line and the least consequential to the valuation, but it is the one line whose disclosed history is a launch curve rather than a business.

Assumptions & reasoning

  • Left ASEASONAL on the research brief's own diagnostics: residual noise of 0.110 log-points is the largest of any line and is of the same order as the apparent Q4 uplift, whose estimate moves from 1.234 to 1.190 between the two windows. Fitting a season here would be fitting the Kisunla ramp, not a repeating calendar shape.
  • Kisunla grew from $49M in 2025 Q2 to $167M in 2026 Q2 while the rest of the line shrank, so the reported total understates the launch and overstates the base.
  • Outside-US neuroscience revenue fell from $2,183M in FY2023 to $694M in FY2024 to $394M in FY2025, which is why the ten-quarter history for this line is not a stable base to extrapolate from.
