CAMBRIDGE, MA / ACCESSWIRE / January 12, 2026 / Moderna, Inc. (NASDAQ:MRNA) today announced business updates and progress across its pipeline of mRNA medicines. Moderna enters 2026 with a focus on growing sales, launching new infectious disease products and delivering pivotal readouts across oncology, rare disease and infectious disease portfolios.

"In 2025, we strengthened our commercial execution, successfully launched our third product, and continued to advance our mRNA pipeline. At the same time, we reduced our annual operating expenses by approximately $2 billion, significantly exceeding the financial cost reduction commitments we set at the start of the year," said Stéphane Bancel, Chief Executive Officer of Moderna. "We remain focused on our strategy to build a large seasonal vaccine franchise for at-risk populations, creating a strong cash engine to fund our next phase of innovation in oncology and rare disease. We expect this approach to support up to 10 percent revenue growth in 2026, as we further reduce costs, expand our commercial portfolio with approvals of additional seasonal vaccines, and anticipate multiple clinical data catalysts driven by our late-stage oncology pipeline."

The Company's presentation will take place on Monday, January 12, 2026, at 4:30 p.m. PT/7:30 p.m. ET at the 44th Annual J.P. Morgan Healthcare Conference. A live webcast of both the presentation and the question-and-answer session will be available.
