The CEO's stated three-year plan: build the seasonal vaccine franchise from three approved products to as many as six by 2028 and reach cash breakeven that year. Moderna has never reported a flu or combination revenue line, so the engine expresses the added products as a dated level step in the respiratory franchise - plus 110% from 2027 Q3, the first full season a six-product portfolio could ship. It lifts FY2028 revenue to $3.99B, roughly double the 2026 framework. Even so it does NOT reach cash breakeven on this model's extrapolated cost base, and it books no oncology revenue.

mRESVIA is approved in 40 countries and has never earned more than $15M in a quarter; eight post-launch quarters total $43M. The European Commission joint procurement signed in Q2 2026 for up to 24 million doses is the first contract large enough to change that, and it carries no disclosed price, value or delivery schedule.

Assumptions & reasoning

  • Deliberately aseasonal. Two post-launch windows give factors of [0.0, 0.0, 1.6, 2.4] and [1.0, 0.0, 1.0, 2.0] - a window-to-window spread as large as the factors themselves, on a base where a $1M rounding step moves a factor by more than 0.10. That is launch noise, not a repeating shape.
  • The EC contract is for 'up to' 24 million doses. Turning it into revenue would require inventing a price per dose and a delivery schedule, neither of which Moderna has published, so the line is held on its disclosed run rate.
  • No RSV-specific cost of sales is disclosed anywhere, so this vertical carries the same blended product gross margin as the COVID line. If RSV economics differ materially, the mix effect is unmodelled.
  • The two derived quarters, 2024 Q4 and 2025 Q4, come from the full-year figure less the filed nine-month figure and are flagged estimated.
