Understand Moderna, Inc.: how it makes money

Moderna develops and commercializes messenger RNA therapeutics and vaccines, and it generates revenue from net product sales plus grants and collaborations.

Moderna is not yet translating its current revenue mix into profitability, with deeply negative gross and operating margins, so progress toward sustainable product revenue (and how much is offset by grants and collaborations) is central to the profit model.

Revenue by segment (latest quarter)
Net product sales$0.2B
Grant and collaboration$0.2B
Other revenue$0.0B

Business quality (Weak): Latest quarter (2026-03-31) shows revenue of 0.4B with negative gross margin and negative operating margin, and the revenue build appears to rely on a mix of net product sales, grant and collaboration revenue, and other revenue.

Bull case

  • Multiple therapeutic and vaccine areas: Moderna discovers, develops, and commercializes messenger RNA therapeutics and vaccines across infectious diseases, immuno-oncology, rare diseases, cardiovascular diseases, and auto-immune diseases.
  • Revenue mix includes product plus funding support: The latest quarter revenue breakdown includes net product sales (0.17B) along with grant and collaboration revenue (0.2B), which can support operations as products mature.

Bear case

  • Profits are not currently supported by revenue: Gross margin is -145.5% and operating margin is -356.8% for the latest quarter (2026-03-31), indicating costs exceed gross profit and operating results are sharply negative.
  • Dependence on non net product sources may be structurally important: Grant and collaboration revenue is a meaningful component of the quarter's revenue build (0.2B), which can make results more sensitive to changes in those programs and counterpart activity.
