About Arcturus Therapeutics

Arcturus creates medicines that use genetic instructions to help bodies fight diseases. Its products target rare liver and lung conditions and prevent viral infections. These treatments help patients who lack specific proteins or need vaccines.

The Medicine Cabinet

  • Self-amplifying mRNA Vaccines: Vaccine technology that makes copies of itself inside the body to provide protection at lower doses.
  • Lipid Delivery Systems: Tiny fatty particles that protect and carry medicine directly to target cells in the body.
  • Rare Disease Therapeutics: Genetic treatments for conditions like cystic fibrosis and liver disorders currently in clinical testing.

Charting the Path Forward

  • Collaborated with CSL Seqirus in 2022 to develop and sell vaccines for COVID-19 and influenza globally.
  • Secured a cost-reimbursement contract with BARDA to advance a low-dose flu vaccine platform.
  • Partnered with Meiji to launch an updated COVID-19 vaccine in Japan during August 2025.
  • Initiated arbitration against CSL Seqirus in May 2025 regarding a milestone payment for the European market.

What Makes Arcturus Different

The company developed the first self-amplifying RNA vaccine to receive commercial approval in major global markets. Its specialized delivery technology allows genetic medicine to reach specific tissues like the liver and lungs safely.

Checking the Ledger

  • Total revenue fell to $2.1 million in Q1 2026, a 93% decrease from $29.4 million in Q1 2025.
  • Net loss deepened to $27 million in Q1 2026 compared to a $14.1 million loss in Q1 2025.
  • Research and development expenses decreased 38% year-over-year to $21.5 million in the first quarter of 2026.
  • Cash and equivalents totaled $213.4 million as of March 31, 2026, down from $232.8 million at the start of the year.

The Final Word

Arcturus has shifted from a research firm to a commercial-stage vaccine and rare disease treatment developer. Its future relies on the success of its proprietary RNA platforms and international partnerships.
