Zai Lab (HKG:9688) shrank its net loss in the first quarter to $48.4 million from $53.5 million in the year-ago period, a Thursday Hong Kong bourse filing said.
Loss per share stood at $0.04 for the three months, down from $0.05 in the corresponding period last year.
The biopharmaceutical company saw its revenue for the quarter rise 22% to $106.5 million from $87.1 million a year prior.
The lower loss was mainly due to product revenue growing faster than net operating expenses.
