Novavax reported Q1 2026 revenue of $140 million, down 79% year-over-year, driven by the expected wind-down of direct Nuvaxovid sales as Sanofi takes over commercialization. Operational highlights include the realization of a $30 million upfront payment from Pfizer following a January licensing deal for Matrix-M, with potential for up to $500 million in future milestones.
