Business Description

Praxis Precision Medicines, Inc. is a biopharmaceutical firm operating at the clinical stage, dedicated to creating innovative treatments for central nervous system (CNS) conditions that stem from an imbalance in neuronal activity. The company's primary investigational compounds currently undergoing evaluation include: PRAX-114, an extrasynaptic-preferring positive allosteric modulator of the GABAA receptor, which is currently in Phase IIa clinical trials for addressing both major depressive disorder and perimenopausal depression. Additionally, PRAX-944, a small molecule designed to selectively inhibit T-type calcium channels, is also progressing through Phase IIa clinical trials to manage essential tremor. Beyond these, Praxis is also advancing a pipeline of other promising drug candidates, such as: PRAX-562, a persistent sodium current blocker, undergoing Phase I clinical evaluation for treating severe pediatric epilepsy and adult cephalgia (headaches). PRAX-222, an antisense oligonucleotide (ASO) aimed at individuals suffering from gain-of-function (GOF) SCN2A epilepsy. And a program targeting KCNT1 for the treatment of KCNT1 GOF epilepsy. To further its research and development efforts, Praxis maintains several strategic alliances. These include a cooperation and licensing arrangement with RogCon Inc.; a licensing deal with Purdue Neuroscience Company; a comprehensive research collaboration, option, and license agreement with Ionis Pharmaceuticals, Inc.; and a collaborative project with The Florey Institute focused on the creation of three new antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs). Established in 2015, the company's headquarters are situated in Boston, Massachusetts.

Revenue & Net Income Trend
The directional story — useful even when net income is negative.
Last updated: Jun 23, 2026 11:41pm (3d ago)
Revenue
The top line — total sales before any costs or taxes are subtracted. A measure of how much business the company is doing.
Net Income
The bottom line — profit left after subtracting all expenses, interest, and taxes from revenue. Reflects accounting profitability, but includes non-cash items like depreciation, so it isn't the same as cash earned.
Operating Cash Flow
The real cash generated by the day-to-day business — selling products, paying suppliers, collecting from customers. Calculated from net income by adding back non-cash items and adjusting for timing (unpaid bills, unsold inventory). When OCF consistently lags net income, the reported profit may not be converting to real money.
