Krystal Biotech walked into this earnings season with a premium biotech label and a stock that had climbed about 28% over the past three months. Today the air came out fast. The shares dropped about 8% to US$312.37 even as the company posted Q1 2026 revenue of US$116.4m and basic earnings per share of US$1.91.
