Moderna (NASDAQ: MRNA) is a U.S.-based biotechnology firm that develops messenger-RNA (mRNA) medicines across a broad therapeutic spectrum, including respiratory, latent, enteric, public-health, bacterial, oncology, and rare-disease indications.
Its vaccine portfolio now spans Spikevax (COVID-19), mRESVIA (RSV), seasonal and pandemic influenza candidates, as well as pipelines for cytomegalovirus, Epstein-Barr virus, Zika, Nipah, and Lyme disease, while its oncology arm focuses on individualized neoantigen and checkpoint-modulating therapies.
Key recent metrics show Q3 2025 revenue of $5.3 billion, up 12 % year-over-year, and a cash position of $7.2 billion, supporting continued R&D investment of $2.1 billion in 2025. The global mRNA market is projected to grow at a 14 % CAGR through 2030, driven by expanding vaccine demand and emerging therapeutic applications.
Strategic collaborations remain central to Moderna’s growth, notably its multi-year partnership with AstraZeneca on oncology mRNA candidates, a joint development agreement with Merck on rare-disease therapies, and ongoing work with the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation on infectious-disease vaccines.
