Buffalo Mid Cap Discovery Fund's Q2 2026 investor letter highlights Corcept Therapeutics as a meaningful contributor to relative performance after shares benefited from improved investor confidence in its commercial execution and pipeline opportunities. Corcept closed at $118.51 on Sept. 24, 2026, and has risen 4.07% in the past month and 41.30% over the last 12 months, with a $12.81 billion market cap and a 52-week range of $28.66–$126.38. The fund notes leadership in Health Care and gains in AI-related tech, semiconductors, and AI infrastructure helped overall results, with Corcept's performance aided by its pipeline prospects. The letter also notes that Corcept is not among the 40 most popular hedge-fund stocks (about 30 funds held it in Q2, down from 41), suggesting potential upside tied to execution and pipeline. Improved investor confidence in Corcept's commercial execution and pipeline opportunities could modestly lift near-term sentiment and perception, though no concrete milestones are detailed.

Corcept Therapeutics announced a planned leadership transition: Sean Maduck, President of Endocrinology, will retire and be replaced by Justin Gunn, who starts full duties October 1 and will join the executive team reporting to CEO Joseph Belanoff. Maduck will remain as a senior commercial advisor during the transition. Gunn, who joined Corcept in July 2024 as VP of Sales and Commercial Learning for Oncology, built a new field sales and training organization for Lifyorli, Corcept’s treatment for platinum-resistant ovarian cancer launched with nab-paclitaxel. Belanoff praised Gunn’s track record and stressed the opportunity to expand patient reach as awareness of Cushing’s syndrome grows. Corcept notes its focus on cortisol modulation and ongoing trials in hypercortisolism, solid tumors, ALS and liver disease; it also includes standard forward-looking statements disclaimer. Leadership transition in the Endocrinology division with a proven commercial leader could influence execution and growth in that unit.

CHMP backed approval of relacorilant plus nab-paclitaxel for platinum-resistant ovarian cancer, based on ROSELLA Phase 2/3 data, signaling a regulatory win and potential expansion beyond Korlym. Shares surged: 90-day return 44.1%, YTD 207.6%, 5-year TSR 487.2%, underscoring momentum. Fair value cited at $141 vs $117.51 close, implying ~17% undervaluation. Catalysts include broader hypercortisolism opportunities via the CATALYST study and expected relacorilant approvals in hypercortisolism this year and ovarian cancer next year, with margin expansion possible from diversifying beyond Korlym. Risks: pricing pressure, legal challenges, or delays in relacorilant approvals. Valuation relies on a P/S multiple; trading about 15.3x sales vs peers ~5x, with fair value around 16.6x, leaving upside but elevated risk. CHMP backing and upcoming approvals could materially expand the addressable market and boost revenue and margins.

Europe's drug regulator recommended approval of relacorilant with nab-paclitaxel for platinum-resistant ovarian cancer, aligning with US guidelines. The CHMP's positive opinion on the Phase 3 ROSELLA trial (381 patients across several regions) suggests longer progression-free and overall survival with similar safety to chemotherapy. If the European Commission signs off by Q4 2026, Corcept could commercialize in Europe, expanding a market of roughly 20,000 potential candidates per year similar to the US. In the US, Lifyorli has already begun selling, generating $47.6 million in Q2 revenue on $256.1 million quarterly revenue, and Corcept raised 2026 full-year guidance to $1.1–$1.2 billion, while increasing operating expenses to fund launch and other programs. Costs and a modest pipeline risk remain as the company invests. Regulatory win in Europe could unlock a new revenue stream and accelerate Corcept's growth beyond the US.

EMA's CHMP issued a positive opinion recommending EU approval of Lifyorli (relacorilant) in combination with nab-paclitaxel for platinum-resistant ovarian cancer. The decision, based on phase II data and the pivotal ROSELLA phase III study, showed improved progression-free survival and overall survival with the combo versus nab-paclitaxel alone, and a safety profile similar to nab-paclitaxel monotherapy. If confirmed by the European Commission, Lifyorli would join Corcept's FDA-approved label in the US (approval granted March 2026). The EU news comes as Lifyorli achieved $47.6 million in Q2 2026, its first quarter on the market. Corcept also continues other relacorilant trials (BELLA with Avastin) and has resubmitted a NDA for relacorilant to treat Cushing's syndrome, with a FDA action date targeted for Dec 17, 2026. Positive CHMP opinion could substantially expand EU sales and investor confidence ahead of the EC decision.
