Yep, Ende Q1/25 geht das Licht aus.
Aber da es operative Einnahmen gibt, wird sich vorher wohl noch jemand erbarmen und eine (für die Aktionäre) teure Finanzspritze setzen oder den Laden übernehmen.

SOMERVILLE, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nov. 14, 2024-- bluebird bio, Inc. (NASDAQ: BLUE) (“bluebird bio” or the “Company”) today reported third quarter results and business highlights for the quarter ended September 30, 2024, including recent commercial and operational progress.
“Patient starts more than doubled from our second to third quarter update, providing clear evidence that our commercial launches continued to accelerate,” said Andrew Obenshain, chief executive officer. “This momentum, coupled with steps we took in the third quarter to increase manufacturing capacity for ZYNTEGLO and optimize our cost structure, is propelling bluebird forward on our path to becoming a sustainable commercial gene therapy company. We remain focused on securing additional cash resources to extend our runway, which we believe would enable us to achieve this vision and reach cash flow break-even in the second half of 2025.”
COMMERCIAL LAUNCH UPDATES
Continued commercial momentum across the portfolio
57 patient starts completed to date in 2024 (35 ZYNTEGLO, 17 LYFGENIA, 5 SKYSONA).
17 additional starts scheduled through the remainder of 2024.
Evidence of strong commercial demand, with 30 patient starts already scheduled in 2025, supporting the potential for cash flow breakeven in the second half of 2025.
More than 70 activated QTCs, with 40% having initiated or completed treatment for at least one patient.
Validated access and reimbursement strategy is driving favorable coverage landscape
To date, more than half of all states have affirmed coverage for LYFGENIA through a preferred drug list or published coverage criteria.
Nearly 50% of Medicaid-insured individuals with sickle cell disease in the U.S. live in a state that has already completed prior authorization approval for the use of LYFGENIA for at least one patient.
Multiple outcomes-based agreements are published and in place for LYFGENIA with national commercial payer organizations, representing more than 200 million U.S. lives.

THIRD QUARTER FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS
Cash Position: The Company’s cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash balance was approximately $118.7 million, including restricted cash of approximately $48.0 million, as of September 30, 2024.
bluebird and Hercules are engaging collaboratively as bluebird works to secure adequate cash runway to obtain additional financing and reach cash flow break-even. Based on current forecasts, which assume continued cost-saving initiatives, successfully renegotiating key contracts, and continued collaborative engagement from Hercules, we expect our existing cash and cash equivalents will enable us to fund our operations into the first quarter of 2025.
The Company anticipates quarterly cash flow break-even in the second half of 2025, assuming it scales to approximately 40 drug product deliveries per quarter and obtains additional cash resources to extend its runway.
Revenue, net: Total revenue, net was $10.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to $12.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023, driven by quarter-to-quarter variability in drug product infusions.
Revenue for the third quarter includes revenue from LYFGENIA, following the completion of the first infusion for sickle cell disease.
bluebird previously guided to an anticipated reduction of net revenue in the third quarter; the Company now anticipates net revenue of at least $25 million in the fourth quarter 2024, as previously reported patient starts are infused.
Cost of Product Revenue: Cost of product revenue was $11.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to $9.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023.
SG&A Expenses: Selling, general and administrative expenses were $39.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to $40.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The decrease of $1.0 million was primarily driven by decrease in employee compensation, benefit, and other headcount related expenses, commercial expenses, and facility fees, partially offset by increased professional services fees.
R&D Expenses: Research and development expenses were $23.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to $58.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The decrease of $35.3 million was primarily driven by material production shift to inventory and cost of product revenue as well as decreased employee compensation, benefit, and other headcount related expenses, consulting fees, and facility and information technology fees.
Net income (loss): Net loss was $60.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to a net loss of $87.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023.."
