REGENXBIO Inc (NASDAQ: RGNX) is a clinical-stage gene therapy company that licenses its NAV Technology Platform, a portfolio of adeno-associated virus (AAV) vectors, to biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies for use in developing gene therapies across multiple disease indications. Revenue comes from up-front fees, annual fees, milestone payments, royalties on licensed product sales, and service fees earned under license and collaboration agreements. As of FY2025, two customers, Novartis Gene Therapies and Nippon Shinyaku, accounted for approximately 99% of total revenues, reflecting extreme customer concentration. RGNX has not generated revenue from commercial product sales of its own therapies as of the 10-K filed March 5, 2026. Its most advanced collaboration is with AbbVie on ABBV-RGX-314 for retinal diseases, under which RGNX received a $370.0 million up-front payment in November 2021 and is eligible for up to $1.38 billion in development and sales-based milestones, plus equal profit sharing on U.S. sales and tiered royalties on ex-U.S. sales.
