Iovance Biotherapeutics Raises Full Year 2026 Revenue Guidance to $410 to $420 Million
New Guidance Represents an Increase of $55 Million at the Midpoint from the Prior Range of $350 to $370 Million
Strong U.S. Demand for Amtagvi and Proleukin Drives Increased Outlook
PHILADELPHIA, Pennsylvania, September 29, 2026 -- Iovance Biotherapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ: IOVA), a commercial biotechnology company focused on innovating, developing, and delivering novel polyclonal tumor infiltrating lymphocyte (TIL) therapies for patients with cancer, today raised its full year 2026 total revenue guidance range to $410 to $420 million, driven by strong U.S. demand for Amtagvi® (lifileucel) and Proleukin. The midpoint represents an increase of $55 million, or ~15%, over the previous guidance range of $350 to $370 million and implies nearly 60% annual growth in total revenue.
“Our record second quarter and sustained demand for Amtagvi and Proleukin led us to raise our full year 2026 total revenue guidance by $55 million at the midpoint,” said Frederick Vogt, Ph.D., J.D., Interim President and Chief Executive Officer. “Increasing patient demand and our current manufacturing schedule provide strong visibility into our third and fourth quarter revenues. In addition, lifileucel continues to advance across our registrational programs in new solid tumor indications, while continued manufacturing and operating efficiencies accelerate our progress toward profitability.”
Iovance most recently reported record second quarter 2026 total product revenue of $99.3 million, has grown its authorized treatment center (ATC) network to ~100 centers, and remains on track for expansion to at least 110 ATCs by year-end 2026.
Iovance expects to report third quarter 2026 financial results in early November 2026. This update completes the guidance review announced with the Company’s second quarter 2026 results.
