In short
- Thesis
- The market weighs the fast AMVUTTRA growth of Alnylam against competition, drug price rules and rising royalty costs, and steady TTR growth with wider margins through 2027 can lift its value.
- Gap
- Can close. The Q4 2026 report in February 2027, with its 2027 guidance and new clinical data, shows whether AMVUTTRA growth and the margin keep rising.
Company guidance: 2026 net product revenues $4,700 to $5,100 million; collaboration and royalty revenues $575 to $625 million (, Q3 2026 results release (8-K))
Price history
About
Alnylam Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Alnylam) is based in Cambridge, Massachusetts. It develops and sells RNAi therapeutics, which are medicines that silence the genes that cause a disease. Its main product is AMVUTTRA (vutrisiran) for transthyretin amyloidosis (ATTR), including the cardiomyopathy form (ATTR-CM). It also sells ONPATTRO, GIVLAARI and OXLUMO, and it earns royalties on Leqvio, which Novartis sells.
Total revenues were $1,458.1 million in Q3 2026 and $3,916.2 million for nine months. Net product revenues were $1,291.9 million in Q3, of which AMVUTTRA made $1,130.4 million. The common stock trades on Nasdaq in US dollars. Alnylam files 10-K and 10-Q reports.
Thesis
The price of Alnylam depends on how long AMVUTTRA can keep growing in ATTR-CM and whether newer medicines can add growth after it. In Q3 2026 total TTR revenues grew 59% to $1,150 million, but cost of goods sold rose to 28.0% of net product revenues from 23.2%, because the royalty rate that Alnylam pays rises with AMVUTTRA sales. GAAP income from operations fell 6% to $345.8 million, because a Roche milestone of $300 million lifted Q3 2025.
For the price to hold or rise, four things must be true. AMVUTTRA demand must keep growing in the US and in new markets, so that net product revenues reach the guided $4.7 billion to $5.1 billion in 2026 and grow again in 2027. Competing ATTR-CM medicines and US drug price rules must not cut the net price much.
The operating margin must widen as revenue grows. The next medicines, such as nucresiran, which Alnylam expects to launch in ATTR-CM by 2030, and brezosiran for Huntington's disease, must keep their timelines. The Q4 2026 report in February 2027, with its 2027 guidance, is the next test.

Risks
- Revenue depends on one group of medicines. Total TTR revenues were $1,150 million of $1,292 million of net product revenues in Q3 2026, and AMVUTTRA alone made $1,130 million. Competing ATTR-CM medicines, including generic versions of competing products, could slow its growth.
- US drug price rules can lower prices. The 10-Q names most-favored nation pricing measures, government price negotiation and changes to the 340B Drug Pricing Program as risks to the net price of its medicines.
- Royalty costs rise with sales. Cost of goods sold was 28.0% of net product revenues in Q3 2026, against 23.2% a year before, because of a higher blended royalty rate on AMVUTTRA.
- Clinical trials can fail or take longer. Alnylam expanded the TRITON-CM study of nucresiran to about 2,250 patients, and the ZENITH Phase 3 trial of zilebesiran and other studies raise research and development costs.
- Some obligations are like debt. Liabilities related to the sale of future royalties and development funding were $1,734.9 million and convertible notes were $1,024.1 million in principal at September 30, 2026. Conversion of the notes can add about 2.3 million shares.
