About Supernus Pharmaceuticals, Inc.

About Supernus Pharmaceuticals, Inc.

Nine FDA-approved CNS therapies underpin Supernus Pharmaceuticals' revenue base, with Qelbree (ADHD) representing approximately 49% of 2025 total net revenues and GOCOVRI (Parkinson's dyskinesia and OFF episodes) contributing 23%. The company expanded its portfolio through the July 2025 acquisition of Sage Therapeutics for roughly $561 million cash plus contingent value rights tied to ZURZUVAE net sales milestones through 2030. ONAPGO, a subcutaneous apomorphine infusion device for Parkinson's motor fluctuations, received FDA approval in February 2025 and launched in April 2025.

Supernus sells products through pharmaceutical wholesalers and specialty pharmacies in the U.S., with Cencora, Cardinal Health, and McKesson each individually exceeding 15% of total product revenue and together surpassing 76% in 2025. Qelbree is promoted by two dedicated sales forces targeting ADHD specialists, psychiatrists, and primary care physicians; Parkinson's products including GOCOVRI, APOKYN, ONAPGO, and XADAGO are sold by a movement-disorder-focused sales force. ZURZUVAE is co-commercialized with Biogen under a profit-sharing arrangement in the U.S., with Biogen recording product sales and each party sharing operating profits and losses equally. Generic versions of Trokendi XR and Oxtellar XR entered the market in 2023 and 2024 respectively, while settlement agreements permit generic XADAGO entry from December 2027 and generic GOCOVRI from June 2029.

Show full overview

GOCOVRI, which contributed 23% of 2025 net revenues, faces permitted generic entry under settlement beginning June 2029, while XADAGO faces entry from December 2027. The Sage acquisition adds a structured commercial milestone: the CVR agreement requires ZURZUVAE net sales of $250 million in any calendar year through 2027 to unlock the first $1.00-per-share payment, with escalating thresholds through 2030. A supply constraint on ONAPGO disclosed in November 2025 required pausing new patient initiation, with the company reporting progress on securing additional supply in February 2026 and a second supplier expected to begin supplying ONAPGO in 2027.
