What were the key drivers behind the revenue and earnings performance versus consensus estimates for Q2 2025?

Based on the excerpt you provided, the press release only mentions the cash and marketable‑securities balances as of June 30 2025 ( $175.9 million versus $269.1 million at the end of 2024). No figures or commentary are included about:

  • Revenue for the quarter
  • Net income or earnings per share for the quarter
  • How either of those metrics compared with Wall Street consensus estimates
  • The specific factors that drove any upside or downside versus those estimates (e.g., product sales, partnership milestones, expense trends, etc.)

Because those details are not part of the text you shared, I’m unable to identify the concrete drivers behind the revenue and earnings performance versus consensus estimates for Q2 2025.

If you can provide the sections of the release that discuss the company’s reported revenue, earnings, and the management commentary on why the results diverged from consensus, I’ll be able to give you a thorough analysis of the key drivers.
