Mirum Pharmaceuticals delivers 43% revenue growth, generates free cash flow despite a GAAP loss, and has entered a technical breakout — but two consecutive earnings misses and a historically elevated put/call ratio signal growing market skepticism about near-term execution, creating a binary outcome around the next catalyst.

About Mirum Pharmaceuticals, Inc.
About Mirum Pharmaceuticals, Inc.
Mirum Pharmaceuticals holds FDA and European Commission approvals for LIVMARLI (maralixibat) for cholestatic pruritus in Alagille syndrome and progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis, FDA approval for CHOLBAM for bile acid synthesis disorders and peroxisomal disorders, and FDA approval for CTEXLI (chenodiol) for cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis, granted in February 2025. The company targets rare patient populations estimated at roughly 4,000–5,500 ALGS patients and 1,000 PFIC patients in the U.S. and Europe, approximately 1,000–2,000 prevalent CTX patients in the U.S., and an estimated 200–300 prevalent U.S. candidates for CHOLBAM therapy.
Mirum earns revenue through direct specialty sales in the U.S., Canada, and select European countries, with CHOLBAM and CTEXLI distributed through a single specialty pharmacy in the U.S. International markets are covered through license and distribution agreements with rare disease partners. The company acquired the Bile Acid Portfolio from Travere Therapeutics in August 2023 and completed the acquisition of Bluejay Therapeutics in January 2026, adding brelovitug, a Phase 3 monoclonal antibody for hepatitis delta virus infection with FDA Breakthrough Therapy and EMA PRIME designations. Milestone and royalty obligations to Shire (now Takeda) under the Shire License Agreement total up to $109.5 million for Livmarli development milestones, with tiered royalties at low double-digit to mid-teen rates on Shire Licensed Products net sales.
Show full overview
The pipeline binary risk facing Mirum centers on multiple concurrent Phase 2b/3 readouts expected in 2026–2027: volixibat VISTAS topline data in PSC (Q2 2026), AZURE-1 and AZURE-4 Phase 3 topline data for brelovitug (H2 2026), and MRM-3379 Phase 2 BLOOM data in fragile X syndrome (2027). If any registration-enabling trial fails, it could weigh on the company's pipeline NPV materially, as each program targets an indication with no currently approved U.S. therapy. CHOLBAM and CTEXLI distribution depends on a single U.S. specialty pharmacy, concentrating fulfillment risk within a narrow operational channel.
