Opus Genetics Completes Enrollment in Cohort 1 of Phase 1/2 OPGx-BEST1 Gene Therapy Study

Target Enrollment Achieved with the Inclusion of Participants with Both Dominant and Recessive Forms of BEST Disease

Baseline Demographics Presented at ARVO Annual Meeting with Summary Audio and Slide Presentation Available on Opus Website

Three-Month Topline Results from Cohort 1 Expected in September 2026

RESEARCH TRIANGLE PARK, N.C., May 07, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Opus Genetics, Inc. (Nasdaq: IRD) (“Opus Genetics” or the “Company”), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company developing gene therapies to restore vision and prevent blindness in patients with inherited retinal diseases (IRDs), today announced the completion of enrollment in Cohort 1 of its ongoing Phase 1/2 study of OPGx-BEST1 gene therapy.

The adaptive, open-label study is evaluating the safety and efficacy of single-eye subretinal administration of OPGx-BEST1 up to two dose levels in adult participants with Best Vitelliform Macular Dystrophy (BVMD) or Autosomal-Recessive Bestrophinopathy (ARB). Five participants have been enrolled in the study, three with BVMD and two with ARB. The first four participants have been dosed and the fifth participant is scheduled for the dosing procedure this month.

“As planned, we enrolled a mix of participants with the dominant and recessive forms of BEST disease to evaluate OPGx-BEST1 in both conditions,” said George Magrath, M.D., Chief Executive Officer, Opus Genetics. “We collaborated closely with our study sites and investigators to identify participants who met our carefully defined entry criteria. In the dominant participants, we completed the added step of using an in vitro platform to confirm that each participant’s disease mutation is amenable to gene augmentation. The promising tolerability data and early efficacy signals we saw in the sentinel participant show the promise for individuals living with this potentially blinding disease. We are grateful to the participants and clinical sites who are participating in the trial, and we look forward to presenting the three-month data on the full cohort later this year.”

In a session today at the Association for Research in Vision and Ophthalmology (ARVO) Annual Meeting, the study’s principal investigator, Mark Pennesi, M.D., Ph.D., Chief Medical Officer and Director, Inherited Retinal Degeneration Clinic, Retina Foundation of the Southwest, presented baseline demographics of Cohort 1 (summarized in Table 1) and 3-month results from the first (sentinel) participant treated in the study, highlighting positive tolerability and biological activity following subretinal administration of OPGx-BEST1.

The ARVO poster presentation and a video recording of Dr. Pennesi’s summary of Cohort 1 Baseline Demographics and Key Endpoints for IRDs are available on the Opus Genetics website in the Events section.

Opus expects to announce 3-month topline data from Cohort 1 in September 2026, followed by the presentation of data at an ophthalmology medical conference later this year. Data is expected to be provided on multiple outcome measures including structural optical coherence tomography (OCT) measures, microperimetry, best‑corrected visual acuity, low luminance visual acuity and contrast sensitivity.

About OPGx-BEST1

OPGx-BEST1 leverages Opus Genetics’ proprietary AAV-based gene therapy platform, designed to deliver a functional copy of the BEST1 gene directly to the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) cells where the defective gene resides. The program builds on extensive preclinical work demonstrating restoration of BEST1 protein expression and improved retinal function in relevant disease models.

By restoring BEST1 function, the therapy aims to address the underlying genetic cause of retinal degeneration and support preservation of photoreceptor health and visual function. BEST1-associated IRDs affect an estimated 22,000 patients worldwide and currently have no approved treatments.

About Opus Genetics

Opus Genetics is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company developing gene therapies to restore vision and prevent blindness in patients with inherited retinal diseases (IRDs). The Company is developing durable, one-time treatments designed to address the underlying genetic causes of severe retinal disorders. The Company’s pipeline includes seven AAV-based programs, led by OPGx-LCA5 for LCA5-related mutations and OPGx-BEST1 for BEST1-related retinal degeneration, with additional candidates targeting RDH12, MERTK, RHO, CNGB1 and NMNAT1. Opus Genetics is based in Research Triangle Park, NC. For more information, visit www.opusgtx.com.

Valvoline’s outlook for adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EPS are non-GAAP financial measures that are expected to be impacted by items affecting comparability. Valvoline is unable to reconcile these forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP measures estimated for fiscal 2026 without unreasonable efforts, as the Company is currently unable to predict with a reasonable degree of certainty the type and extent of certain items that would be expected to impact these GAAP measures in fiscal 2026 but would not impact non-GAAP adjusted results.

Includes the effects of certain unusual, infrequent or non-operational activity not directly attributable to the underlying business, which management believes impacts the comparability of operational results between periods (“key items”). These key items are delineated within Table 6 – Non-GAAP Reconciliation – Income from Continuing Operations and Diluted Earnings per Share.

(b)

Refer to Key Business Measures, Use of Non-GAAP Measures, Table 4 – Retail Stores Operating Information, Table 6 – Non-GAAP Reconciliation – Income from Continuing Operations and Diluted Earnings per Share, and Table 7 – Non-GAAP Reconciliation – Net Revenues and EBITDA from Continuing Operations for management’s definitions of the metrics presented above and reconciliation to the corresponding GAAP measures, where applicable.

(c)

Changes reflect the effects of conversions between company-operated and franchised stores, representing changes in the mix of stores that do not impact the total system-wide store count.

Conference Call Webcast

Valvoline will host a live audio webcast of its second quarter fiscal 2026 conference call today, May 7, 2026, at 9 a.m. ET. The webcast and supporting materials will be accessible through Valvoline’s website at http://investors.valvoline.com. Following the live event, an archived version of the webcast and supporting materials will be available.

Key Business Measures

Valvoline tracks its operating performance and manages its business using certain key measures, including system-wide, company-operated and franchised store counts and system-wide SSS and store sales. Management believes these measures are useful to evaluating and understanding Valvoline’s operating performance and should be considered as supplements to, not substitutes for, Valvoline’s net revenues and operating income, as determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

Net revenues are influenced by the number of service center stores and the business performance of those stores. Stores are considered open upon acquisition or opening for business. Temporary store closings remain in the respective store counts with only permanent store closures reflected in the activity and end of period store counts. SSS is defined as net revenues of U.S. Valvoline Instant Oil ChangeSM (VIOCSM) system-wide stores that have been in operation for at least 12 full months within the system, and beginning in fiscal 2026, mobile service net revenues in markets that leverage store marketing channels.

Net revenues are limited to sales at company-operated stores, in addition to royalties and other fees from independent franchised and Express Care stores. Although Valvoline does not recognize store-level sales from franchised stores as net revenues in its Statements of Condensed Consolidated Income, management believes system-wide and franchised SSS comparisons, store counts, and total system-wide store sales are useful to assess market position relative to competitors and overall store and operating performance.

Use of Non-GAAP Measures

The following non-GAAP measures are included herein: EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, and adjusted EBITDA margin; adjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings per share; and free cash flow and free cash flow excluding growth capital expenditures. Refer to the tables herein for management’s definition of each non-GAAP measure and reconciliation to the most comparable U.S. GAAP measure.

Non-GAAP measures include adjustments from results based on U.S. GAAP that management believes enables comparison of certain financial trends and results between periods and provides a useful supplemental presentation of Valvoline’s operating performance that allows for transparency with respect to key metrics used by management in operating the business and measuring performance. These non-GAAP measures have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation from, an alternative to, or more meaningful than, the financial results presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The financial results presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP and the reconciliations of non-GAAP measures should be carefully evaluated. The manner used to compute the non-GAAP information used by management may differ from the methods used by other companies and may not be comparable.

Refer to the Appendix at the end of this release for descriptions of the adjustments that depart from the computations in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

Valvoline Inc. and Consolidated Subsidiaries

Appendix – Description of Non-GAAP Measures and Adjustments

EBITDA measures

Management believes EBITDA measures provide a meaningful supplemental presentation of Valvoline’s operating performance between periods on a comparable basis due to the depreciable assets associated with the nature of the Company’s operations, as well as income tax and interest costs related to Valvoline’s tax and capital structures, respectively.

Free cash flow measures

Management uses free cash flow and free cash flow excluding growth capital expenditures as additional non-GAAP metrics of cash flow generation. By including capital expenditures, management is able to provide an indication of the ongoing cash being generated that is ultimately available for both debt and equity holders as well as other investment opportunities. Free cash flow includes the impact of capital expenditures, providing a supplemental view of cash generation. Free cash flow excluding growth capital expenditures includes maintenance capital expenditures, which are uses of cash that are necessary to maintain the Company’s existing business operations, including its retail service center store network, service portfolio, and support functions. Free cash flow excluding growth capital expenditures provides a supplemental view of cash flow generation before investments in growth capital, which expand future business operations, including the opening or expansion of retail service center stores and service capabilities. Free cash flow and free cash flow excluding growth capital expenditures have certain limitations, including that they do not reflect adjustments for certain non-discretionary cash expenditures, such as mandatory debt repayments.

Adjusted profitability measures

Adjusted profitability measures (i.e., adjusted net income, diluted earnings per share and EBITDA) enable the comparison of financial trends and results between periods where certain items may not be reflective of the Company’s underlying and ongoing operational performance or vary independent of business performance.

Key items

The non-GAAP measures used by management exclude the impact of certain unusual, infrequent or non-operational activity not directly attributable to the underlying business, which management believes impacts the comparability of operational results between periods (“key items”). Key items are often related to legacy matters or market-driven events considered by management to not be reflective of the ongoing operating performance. Key items may consist of adjustments related to: legacy businesses, including the separation from Valvoline’s former parent company, the sale of the former Global Products reportable segment, and the associated impacts of related activity and indemnities; non-service pension and other postretirement plan activity; restructuring-related matters, including organizational restructuring plans, significant acquisitions or divestitures, debt extinguishment and modification, and tax reform legislation; in addition to other matters that management considers non-operational, infrequent or unusual in nature.

Refer to the following for descriptions of the key items that comprise the adjustments which depart from the computations in accordance with U.S. GAAP:

Net pension and other postretirement plan income: Includes several elements impacted by changes in plan assets and obligations that are primarily driven by the debt and equity markets, including remeasurement gains and losses, when applicable; and recurring non-service pension and other postretirement net periodic activity, which consists of interest cost, expected return on plan assets and amortization of prior service credits. Management considers these elements are more reflective of changes in current conditions in global markets (in particular, interest rates), outside the operational performance of the business, and are also legacy amounts that are not directly related to the underlying business and do not have an impact on the compensation and benefits provided to eligible employees for current service.

Net legacy and separation-related expenses: Activity associated with legacy businesses, including the separation from Valvoline’s former parent company and its former Global Products reportable segment. This activity includes the recognition of and adjustments to indemnity obligations to its former parent company; certain legal, financial, professional advisory and consulting fees; and other expenses incurred by the continuing operations in connection with and directly related to these separation transactions and legacy matters. This incremental activity directly attributable to legacy matters and separation transactions is not considered reflective of the underlying operating performance of the Company’s continuing operations.

Information technology transition costs: Consists of expenses incurred directly related to the Company’s information technology transitions, primarily efforts related to implementing stand-alone enterprise resource planning and human resource information systems that generally began in fiscal 2023 following the sale of the former Global Products reportable segment. These expenses include data conversion, training, redundant expenses incurred from duplicative technology platforms, and temporary support, which includes consulting fees and professional services to support certain enhanced manual procedures and material weakness remediation efforts. These incremental costs are directly associated with technology transitions and are not considered to be reflective of the ongoing expenses of operating the Company’s technology platforms.

Investment and divestiture-related costs (income):Consists of activity directly associated with specific significant acquisitions, investments and divestitures, including professional and consulting fees for legal and advisory services, in addition to gains or losses recognized upon disposition, temporary financing costs directly associated with transactions, certain acquisition-related incentive compensation costs, amortization of Breeze acquired intangible assets, and expense recognized to reduce the carrying values of related assets determined to be impaired. This activity is not considered to be reflective of the underlying operating performance of the Company’s ongoing continuing operations.

Cullinan Therapeutics Provides Corporate Update and Reports First Quarter 2026 Financial Results

Initial clinical data in SLE and RA for CLN-978, a CD19 T cell engager, to be presented at the EULAR 2026 Congress in June; multi-dose regimen data in RA expected in Q3 2026 

Zipalertinib NDA for relapsed EGFR ex20ins NSCLC accepted by U.S. FDA; PDUFA target action date of February 27, 2027

Cash and investments of $393.3 million as of March 31, 2026; runway into 2029

CAMBRIDGE, Mass., May 07, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Cullinan Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: CGEM; “Cullinan”), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company accelerating potential first- or best-in-class, high-impact therapies in autoimmune diseases and cancer, today provided an update on recent and anticipated business highlights and announced its financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2026.

“T cell engagers have the potential to transform outcomes for people living with autoimmune diseases and cancer, and emerging clinical data underscore their promise as a compelling therapeutic modality. We look forward to sharing initial clinical data for CLN-978 and velinotamig throughout 2026. CD19 and BCMA are now well-validated autoimmune targets, and by addressing both, we aim to comprehensively treat more diseases and redefine standards of care for more patients with these two clinical-stage programs. Similarly, the early success of CLN-049 in AML further reinforces the remarkable promise of T cell engagers in many high unmet need disease settings across immunology and oncology,” said Nadim Ahmed, President and CEO of Cullinan Therapeutics.

“Further, with our partner Taiho, we announced FDA acceptance of our first NDA submission, representing a significant milestone for Cullinan Therapeutics and bringing zipalertinib meaningfully closer to being available for patients, with a PDUFA date of February 27, 2027. With multiple upcoming catalysts and milestones across the pipeline through 2026 and beyond, the company is well-positioned for continued momentum and value creation.”

Portfolio Highlights and 2026 Milestones


Immunology

  • CLN-978 (CD19xCD3 T cell engager): treatment-refractory moderate to severe systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), difficult-to-treat rheumatoid arthritis (RA), and treatment-refractory moderate to severe Sjögren’s disease (SjD)
  • OUTRACE SLE

    • In June, the Company will share initial data from Part A (single target dose escalation) with a focus on safety and B cell depletion in peripheral blood, as well as other biomarker data and preliminary clinical activity data. The initial data will be presented in a poster session at the EULAR 2026 Congress on June 6, 2026.
  • OUTRACE RA

    • In June, the Company will share initial data from the single target dose escalation portion of the study with a focus on safety and B cell depletion in peripheral blood and tissue, as well as other biomarker data and preliminary clinical activity data. The initial data will be presented in a poster session at the EULAR 2026 Congress on June 6, 2026.
    • In Q3 2026, the Company plans to share initial multi-dose regimen data, including B cell depletion in peripheral blood and tissue, as well as other biomarker data and preliminary clinical activity data.
  • OUTRACE SjD

    • In Q4 2026, the Company plans to share initial data from Part A (single target dose escalation) with a focus on safety and B cell depletion in peripheral blood and tissue, as well as other biomarker data and preliminary clinical activity data.
  • Velinotamig (BCMAxCD3 T cell engager): treatment-refractory autoimmune diseases

    • Genrix Bio is enrolling a Phase 1 study in China in patients with autoimmune diseases, starting with moderate to severe SLE and to be followed by planned expansion into other indications. Initial multi-dose regimen data from the dose escalation phase in patients with SLE are expected to be shared in Q4 2026. Cullinan intends to use the data generated to accelerate global clinical development.

Q1 2026 Financial Highlights

  • Group Revenue: Group revenue increased $44.0 million year-over-year to $188.0 million.
    • Betting Technology, Content & Services: Revenue increased 33% year-over-year to $146.2 million, driven primarily by growth in business with existing customers as a result of price increases on contract renewals and renegotiations, expansion of value-add services, growth and expansion in existing markets, and new service offerings.
    • Media Technology, Content & Services: Revenue increased 22% year-over-year to $41.7 million, driven by an increase in sales of products built on GeniusIQ technology and the launch of our Moment Engine.
  • Group Net Loss: Group net loss was ($55.5 million) in the first quarter ended March 31, 2026, representing a $47.3 million increase compared to the ($8.2 million) loss in the first quarter ended March 31, 2025. This primarily reflects foreign currency movements, stock-based compensation, and one-time Legend transaction expenses.
  • Group Adjusted EBITDA: Group Adjusted (non-GAAP) EBITDA was $24.0 million in the quarter, representing a 21% increase compared to the $19.8 million reported in the first quarter ended March 31, 2025. Group Adjusted EBITDA Margin of 12.8% reflects the timing of growth investments, with full-year guidance implying meaningful margin expansion in the second half of 2026.

Q1 2026 Business Highlights

  • Delivered a record-breaking March Madness in our first year as the NCAA’s exclusive official data provider, driving increased in-play betting, strong operator performance, best-in-class uptime, and enhanced betting integrity

    • Struck a landmark technology and AI partnership with Liga MX, powering a suite of dynamic advertising, enhanced broadcast, officiating and performance solutions to drive the future of Mexican soccer

Financial Outlook

With the acquisition of Legend, Genius Sports expects to generate Group Revenue of $990 million to $1.01 billion and Group Adjusted EBITDA of $270 to $280 million in the full year of 2026. This is raised from prior full year 2026 Group Revenue guidance of $810 to $820 million and Group Adjusted EBITDA guidance of $180 to $190 million. This implies a Group Adjusted EBITDA Margin of approximately 28% at the midpoint, raised from the prior estimate of approximately 23%.

In the fiscal second quarter ending June 30, 2026, Genius Sports also expects to generate Group Revenue and Adjusted EBITDA of approximately $185 million and $45 million, respectively, which includes the combination of the two companies beginning May 1, 2026.

Group Adjusted EBITDA, Group Adjusted EBITDA margin and Free Cash Flow are used by management to evaluate Genius’ core operating performance on a comparable basis and to make strategic decisions. Genius believes these measures are useful to investors for the same reasons as well as in evaluating Genius’ operating performance against competitors, which commonly disclose similar performance measures. However, Genius’ calculation of Group Adjusted EBITDA, Group Adjusted EBITDA margin and Free Cash Flow may not be comparable to other similarly titled performance measures of other companies. These measures are not intended to be a substitute for any US GAAP financial measure.

We do not provide a reconciliation of non-GAAP measures on a forward-looking basis because we are unable to forecast certain items required to develop meaningful comparable GAAP financial measures without unreasonable efforts. These items are difficult to predict and estimate and are primarily dependent on future events. The impact of these items could be significant to our projections.

Entrada Therapeutics Announces Positive Topline Results from Cohort 1 of Participants with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy Treated with ENTR-601-44 in Phase 1/2 ELEVATE-44-201 Study

— Achieved the primary objective with favorable safety and tolerability, no discontinuations and no serious adverse events —

— Markers of kidney function via eGFR, Cystatin C and magnesium were all within normal ranges and comparable to placebo —

— Observed lower plasma exposure in Cohort 1 participants who are all between six and 17 years of age when compared with healthy adult volunteers; A similar trend was seen between recently received juvenile and adult NHP PK data —

— Consequently, Cohort 1 demonstrated an increase of 2.36% in dystrophin over a baseline of 4.00% and an increase of 2.31% in exon skipping over a baseline of 2.66% in treated participants —

— Statistically significant and potentially differentiated improvement in treated participants versus placebo in Time to Rise velocity, a clinically validated functional measurement —

— Company’s updated PK modeling predicts Cohort 2, building upon Cohort 1 data and combined with the recently received juvenile NHP data, will result in a significant increase of plasma AUC and substantially higher dystrophin levels with continued benefit in muscle function —

— Company has initiated dosing of ELEVATE-44-201 Cohort 2 at the increased dose of 12 mg/kg and is on track to report data by year-end 2026 —

— Entrada to host investor webcast and conference call today, Thursday, May 7, at 8:30 a.m. ET —

BOSTON, May 07, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Entrada Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: TRDA) today announced positive topline data from Cohort 1 of the double-blind, placebo-controlled, multiple ascending dose (MAD) portion of the Phase 1/2 ELEVATE-44-201 clinical study. ELEVATE-44-201 is a clinical study of ENTR-601-44 in ambulatory participants ages four to 20 with a confirmed mutation in the DMD gene amenable to exon 44 skipping. Study participants in Cohort 1 were randomized 3:1 to receive three doses of 6 mg/kg of ENTR-601-44, the lead investigational product in Entrada’s Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) franchise, or placebo. Muscle biopsies were performed at the time of screening and six weeks after the last dose.

The average age of treated participants in the Cohort 1 study was 9.3 years old with a mean age of disease onset of 2.2 years. Per protocol, all participants were ambulatory and all were on a stable dose of steroids. Baseline dystrophin in both the placebo and treatment population was also lower than that reported in competitive exon 44 skipping clinical studies. This is also notable, as treatment response generally correlates with higher baseline dystrophin levels.


Table 1: Demographics and baseline characteristics

The results demonstrated a favorable safety and tolerability profile with no reported serious adverse events (SAEs) and no adverse events (AEs) leading to discontinuation from the study. Markers of kidney function were normal.

“The first dosing cohort readout from ELEVATE-44-201 is a major step forward, showing that ENTR-601-44 has a strong safety profile and is driving important, clinically meaningful and potentially differentiated early functional benefits. We were very encouraged to see that the Cohort 1 data delivered statistically significant improvement in Time to Rise velocity across participants treated with ENTR-601-44. TTR velocity is an approvable clinical endpoint in Phase 3 studies and importantly, ENTR-601-44’s TTR velocity data are compelling and we believe differentiated,” said Dipal Doshi, Chief Executive Officer at Entrada Therapeutics. “We were initially surprised to see a significant difference in the pharmacokinetics between juveniles and adults; however the consistency seen between our recently received juvenile nonhuman primate (NHP) data and the Cohort 1 participant data explains these differences. This clear explanation gives us confidence that we will see higher plasma exposure, which we expect will drive continued functional responses in Cohort 2. We are incredibly grateful to those living with Duchenne, their care partners and the study investigators and personnel who are taking part in our clinical study.”

All study participants in Cohort 1 have now progressed to the open-label, Phase 2 portion of the study, where they will receive six additional doses of 6 mg/kg of ENTR-601-44. Additional study participants are now being dosed in Cohort 2, in which they will receive three doses of 12 mg/kg of ENTR-601-44 or placebo. The Company expects to report results from the Cohort 1 open-label study and Cohort 2 MAD study by year-end 2026, with data from Cohort 3 (up to 18 mg/kg) to follow.

Natarajan Sethuraman, PhD, President of R&D at Entrada Therapeutics, said, “We believe we have a highly differentiated delivery mechanism, including the ability to access quiescent satellite cells. Access to satellite cells enables the repair of existing muscle fibers and importantly, the formation of new healthy fibers. These drivers are emerging as a potentially significant competitive differentiator and may explain why the dystrophin levels in Cohort 1 were sufficient to improve TTR velocity.”

Dr. Sethuraman further commented, “Safety and functional benefit are at the forefront of consideration for patients. Our Cohort 1 data show that ENTR-601-44 is safe at the 6 mg/kg dose and is promoting early functional benefit which represent an important point of differentiation versus other approved and investigational approaches. We look forward to seeing the results from our Cohort 1 open-label and Cohort 2 MAD study later this year.”

Highlights from the topline results of Cohort 1 ELEVATE-44-201 include:

Safety and tolerability

  • Favorable safety and tolerability with ENTR-601-44 at the 6 mg/kg dose.
  • All treatment emergent adverse events (TEAEs) were mild to moderate.
  • No reported SAEs and no AEs leading to discontinuation from the study.
  • The most common AE was headache.
  • Markers of kidney function including eGFR, Cystatin C and magnesium were within normal ranges and comparable to placebo.
  • There were no discontinuations and all eight Cohort 1 participants have transitioned to the open-label portion of the study.

(Participant-level data)

Pharmacokinetics

Consistent with the recently received data in juvenile NHPs, the Company observed a lower-than-expected plasma Cmax and AUC (area under the curve) in pediatric DMD participants when compared with that seen in healthy adult volunteers and the adult NHPs. The levels observed in Cohort 1 were in line with the exposures observed in juvenile NHPs, thus providing confidence on future modeling of exposure. Updated modeling, following review of the juvenile NHP data, suggest that the AUC will significantly increase in Cohort 2, resulting in higher muscle concentration, exon skipping and dystrophin production. The DMD community at large continues to learn about the biology of Duchenne and the relationship between dystrophin and functional benefit. Despite the drug plasma concentration and dystrophin levels, the Company obtained earlier-than-expected functional responses that were both statistically significant and clinically meaningful.

Efficacy and functional improvement

Mean change in TTR velocity is a robust, low variability measure which carries the largest absolute and proportional annual signal and is used as an early prognostic factor for disease progression and loss of ambulation. Cohort 1 results demonstrated a statistically significant improvement in mean TTR velocity in treated versus placebo participants (p<.05, post hoc analysis) which was 3.5 times higher than the minimal clinically important difference (MCID) threshold of 0.023, suggesting ENTR-601-44 is potentially changing the trajectory of the disease.

Positive change in TTR velocity was seen across the majority of participants, irrespective of their severity of disease or age, which likely supports that Cohort 1’s functional benefit represents a true drug-related effect.

Further, the end of Cohort 1 dystrophin levels correlated with the end of Cohort 1 TTR velocity improvement, suggesting that dystrophin production in both damaged muscle fibers and activated satellite cells may have crossed a critical threshold for functional improvement.

Importantly, a majority of participants on treatment achieved functional benefit.

  • In ELEVATE-44-201 Cohort 1, a statistically significant change from baseline in TTR velocity was observed:
    • Mean change in TTR velocity versus placebo of 0.115.
    • Mean change in TTR velocity for the treatment group of 0.08.
  • Demonstrated 2.36% increase in dystrophin over 4.00% baseline in treated participants.
  • Demonstrated 2.31% increase in exon skipping over 2.66% baseline in treated participants.

“The topline results from Cohort 1 of the ELEVATE-44-201 study are promising. Individuals with Duchenne are in urgent need of new treatments that can provide functional improvements while also offering a more targeted treatment option,” said Dr. Laurent Servais, Professor of Paediatric Neuromuscular Diseases at the University of Oxford and principal investigator in the ELEVATE-44-201 clinical study. “For those living with Duchenne, a therapy that could lead to both near- and long-term improvements in functional outcomes would be an important breakthrough. I am excited to be a part of this clinical study and look forward to the data from Cohort 2.”

About the ELEVATE-44-201 Phase 1/2 Study

ELEVATE-44-201 is a global, two-part, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase 1/2 study evaluating the safety, tolerability and effectiveness of ENTR-601-44 in ambulatory participants ages four to 20 with Duchenne who are exon 44 skipping amenable. The multiple ascending dose (MAD) Part A portion of the study is evaluating the safety, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics and functional parameters following intravenous administration of ENTR-601-44 to study participants in three cohorts at sites in the U.K. and EU. The Cohort 1 MAD portion of the study enrolled eight participants ages six to 17 with Duchenne. They were randomized 3:1 to receive ENTR-601-44 at a dose of 6 mg/kg or placebo, administered intravenously. During this double-blind period, doses were administered on days one, 43 and 85, and muscle biopsies were performed at the time of screening and at six weeks after the last dose. Following the initial three doses administered in Part A, all participants continued into the Phase 2, open-label portion in which the safety and efficacy of ENTR-601-44 are evaluated over a longer period of time.

About ENTR-601-44

ENTR-601-44 is a proprietary Endosomal Escape Vehicle (EEV™)-conjugated oligonucleotide that has a sequence designed and optimized for people with a confirmed mutation in the DMD gene that is amenable to exon 44 skipping, which comprises approximately eight percent of the Duchenne patient population globally. ENTR-601-44 is designed to address the underlying cause of Duchenne, facilitating production of functional dystrophin from the endogenous (naturally occurring) DMD gene.

In December 2025, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) granted Rare Pediatric Disease Designation to ENTR-601-44.

About Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy

Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a rare disease caused by mutations in the DMD gene, which encodes for the dystrophin protein. These mutations lead to inadequate dystrophin production. Dystrophin is essential to maintaining the structural integrity and function of muscle cells. Lack of functional dystrophin leads to progressive loss of muscle strength, impacting mobility and causing heart or respiratory complications that contribute to high mortality rates. An estimated 41,000 people in the U.S. and Europe are living with Duchenne. Of those, 14,000 are amenable to exon 44, 45, 50 and 51 skipping.

About Entrada Therapeutics

Entrada Therapeutics is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company aiming to transform the lives of patients by establishing a new class of genetic medicines that engage intracellular targets that have long been considered inaccessible. Through proprietary, versatile and modular approaches, Entrada is advancing a robust development portfolio of genetic medicines for the potential treatment of neuromuscular and inherited retinal diseases, among others. The Company’s lead oligonucleotide programs are in development for the potential treatment of people living with Duchenne muscular dystrophy who are exon 44, 45, 50 and 51 skipping amenable. Entrada has partnered to develop a clinical-stage program, VX-670, for myotonic dystrophy type 1.

Key Business Metrics

Management uses gross billings as an operational metric to monitor operating performance of its global ECS reportable segment, including sales performance by geographic region, as it provides meaningful supplemental information to the reader in evaluating the overall performance of the global ECS business. The company uses this key metric to develop financial forecasts, make strategic decisions, and prepare and approve annual budgets. Gross billings represent amounts invoiced to customers for goods and services during a specified period and do not include the impact of recording sales on a net basis or sales adjustments, such as trade discounts and other allowances. The use of gross billings has certain limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for revenue.

Information Relating to Forward-Looking Statements

This press release includes “forward-looking statements,” as the term is defined under the federal securities laws. Forward-looking statements are those statements which are not statements of historical or current fact. These forward-looking statements can be identified by forward-looking words such as “expects,” “anticipates,” “intends,” “plans,” “may,” “will,” “would,” “could,” “believes,” “seeks,” “projected,” “potential,” “estimates,” and similar expressions, and include, but are not limited to, statements regarding: Arrow’s future financial performance, including its outlook on financial results for the second quarter of fiscal 2026 such as sales, net income per diluted share, non-GAAP net income per diluted share, average tax rate, interest and other expense, impact to sales due to changes in foreign currencies, intangible amortization expense per diluted share, restructuring and integration charges per diluted share, the timing of the completion of the Operating Expense Efficiency Plan (the “Plan”) and Arrow’s estimated costs and expected operating expense reductions from the Plan, industry trends and expectations regarding market demand and conditions, and shareholder returns. These and other forward-looking statements are subject to numerous assumptions, risks, and uncertainties, which could cause actual results or facts to differ materially from such statements for a variety of reasons, including, but not limited to: unfavorable economic conditions or changes, including those that may occur in connection with recession, inflation, tax rates, foreign currency exchange rates, or the availability of capital; political instability and changes; impacts of military conflict and sanctions; trade protection measures, tariffs, increased trade tensions, trade agreements and policies, and other restrictions, duties, and value-added taxes, and the associated macroeconomic impacts; disruptions, shortages, or inefficiencies in the supply chain; non-compliance with certain laws, regulations, or executive orders, such as trade, export, antitrust, and anti-corruption laws, or regulatory restrictions relating to the company or its subsidiaries or the permissibility of third-parties to transact therewith; the inability to realize sufficient sales to cover non-cancellable purchase obligations under certain ECS distribution agreements; management transitions, including the company’s search for a permanent CEO; the incurrence of unanticipated charges or failure to realize contemplated cost savings in connection with the Plan; changes in product supply, pricing, and customer demand; increased profit-margin pressure resulting from industry conditions, competition, or other factors; changes in relationships with key suppliers; other vagaries in the Global Components and the Global ECS markets; changes to applicable laws, regulations, executive orders, or rules relating to government contractors and the resulting legal and reputational exposure, including but not limited to those relating to environmental, social, governance, cybersecurity, data privacy, and artificial intelligence issues; commercial disputes, patent infringement claims, product liability lawsuits, or other legal proceedings; foreign tax and other loss contingencies; failure, disruption, or compromise of the company’s information systems or those of a third-party service provider, including unauthorized use or disclosure of company, supplier, or customer information; outbreaks, epidemics, pandemics, or public health crises; the effects of natural or man-made catastrophic events; and the company’s ability to generate positive cash flow. For a further discussion of these and other factors that could cause the company’s future results to differ materially from any forward-looking statements, see the section entitled “Risk Factors” in the company’s most recent Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, as well as in other filings the company makes with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Shareholders and other readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date on which they are made. The company undertakes no obligation to update publicly or revise any of the forward-looking statements.

Certain Non-GAAP Financial Information

In addition to disclosing financial results that are determined in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”), the company also provides certain non-GAAP financial information. The company provides the following non-GAAP metrics: sales, operating income (including by business segment), income before income taxes, provision for income taxes, consolidated net income, noncontrolling interest, net income attributable to shareholders, effective tax rate, and net income per share on a diluted basis. The foregoing non-GAAP measures are adjusted by certain of the following, as applicable: impact of changes in foreign currencies (referred to as “changes in foreign currencies” or “on a constant currency basis”) by re-translating prior-period results at current period foreign exchange rates; identifiable intangible asset amortization, restructuring, integration, and other; net gains (losses) on investments; and inventory write downs (recoveries) related to the wind down of a businesses within global components (“impact of wind down”). Management believes that providing this additional information is useful to the reader to better assess and understand the company’s operating performance and future prospects in the same manner as management, especially when comparing results with previous periods. Management typically monitors the business as adjusted for these items, in addition to GAAP results, to understand and compare operating results across accounting periods, for internal budgeting purposes, for short- and long-term operating plans, and to evaluate the company’s financial performance. However, analysis of results on a non-GAAP basis should be used as a complement to, in conjunction with, and not as a substitute for, data presented in accordance with GAAP.

Ligand Reports First Quarter 2026 Financial Results

First quarter performance driven by strong year-over-year royalty revenue growth of 
56%

Reaffirms Previously Raised 2026 Full-Year Financial Guidance Reflecting Anticipated Partial-Year Contribution from Pending XOMA Royalty Acquisition

Conference call begins at 8:30 a.m. Eastern Time today

JUPITER, Fla., May 07, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Ligand Pharmaceuticals Incorporated (Nasdaq: LGND) today reported financial results for the three months ended March 31, 2026, and provided an operating forecast and business update. Ligand management will host a conference call and webcast today at 8:30 a.m. Eastern Time to discuss the results and answer questions.

“The first few months of 2026 have already proven to be highly productive and transformative for Ligand,” said Todd Davis, CEO of Ligand. “In April, we announced a definitive agreement to acquire XOMA Royalty Corporation (“XOMA Royalty” or “XOMA”), a highly complementary business that we expect to accelerate both near and long-term growth. Upon closing, the transaction will add more than 120 commercial, clinical and preclinical-stage assets to our royalty portfolio, including seven commercial assets and 14 late-stage programs, and meaningfully diversify Ligand across therapeutic areas, stages of development, and biopharma partners. We were also pleased to see the full FDA approval of Filspari in focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (“FSGS”), a transformative milestone that further strengthens one of our most valuable royalty assets. Filspari is now the largest royalty contributor within our commercial portfolio and, as the first and only FDA-approved medicine for this rare and serious kidney disease, is well positioned to be a key driver of long-term royalty growth.”

First Quarter 2026 Financial Results

First-quarter 2026 results reflect continued strong momentum in the royalty business, with royalty revenue growing 56% year-over-year. Total revenues and income for the first quarter of 2026 were $51.7 million, compared with $45.3 million for the same period in 2025, with the 14% increase primarily driven by higher royalty revenue. Royalties for the first quarter of 2026 were $43.0 million, compared with $27.5 million for the same period in 2025, with the 56% increase primarily attributable to royalties earned on Travere Therapeutics’ Filspari and Merck’s Ohtuvayre and Capvaxive. Captisol® sales were $8.7 million for the first quarter of 2026, compared with $13.5 million for the same period in 2025, with the decrease due to the timing of customer orders.

Cost of Captisol for the first quarter of 2026 was $3.3 million, compared with $4.8 million for the same period in 2025, with the change due to a decrease in Captisol sales. Amortization of intangibles was $8.1 million for the first quarter of 2026, compared with $8.3 million for the same period in 2025. Research and development expenses were $2.1 million for the first quarter of 2026, compared with $50.1 million for the same period in 2025. The first quarter of 2025 included a $44.3 million one-time charge in connection with the royalty financing agreement with Castle Creek Biosciences to fund the Phase 3 clinical study of D-Fi (FCX-007), which was accounted for as a research and development funding agreement under ASC 730-20, Research and Development Arrangements, and $2.7 million research and development expenses of our former Pelthos business. General and administrative expenses were $20.8 million for the first quarter of 2026, compared with $18.8 million for the same period in 2025. The increase primarily reflects higher employee-related costs, including increased headcount and share-based compensation, consistent with the Company’s continued investment in its business development and portfolio management functions.

Non-operating expense, net, was $41.6 million for the first quarter of 2026, compared with $14.0 million for the same period in 2025. The change was primarily attributable to a $49.2 million non-cash loss from changes in the fair value of the Company’s equity-method investment in Pelthos Therapeutics and Pelthos Series A Preferred Shares, partially offset by a $3.9 million gain from short-term investments and $4.9 million of net interest income.

GAAP net loss was $13.3 million, or $0.67 per share for the first quarter of 2026, compared with GAAP net loss of $42.5 million, or $2.21 per share, for the same period in 2025. Adjusted net income for the first quarter of 2026 was $34.6 million, or $1.63 per diluted share, representing growth of 30% and 23%, respectively, compared with $26.6 million, or $1.33 per diluted share, for the same period in 2025. The increase was primarily driven by the 56% year-over-year growth in royalty revenue. Adjusted net income represents a non-GAAP financial measure. See the table below for a reconciliation of net loss to adjusted net income.

As of March 31, 2026, Ligand had cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments of $779.4 million, compared with $733.5 million at December 31, 2025.

2026 Financial Guidance Update

Ligand is reaffirming its 2026 full-year financial guidance, which was raised on April 27, 2026 in connection with the announced entry into a definitive agreement to acquire XOMA. The transaction is expected to close in the third quarter of 2026, subject to customary closing conditions, including approval by XOMA stockholders, and certain entity restructuring. The previously announced increase to guidance is entirely attributable to the anticipated partial-year contribution from XOMA and reflects: (i) incremental royalty revenue of approximately $25 million generated from XOMA’s commercial-stage portfolio, principally Vabysmo, Ojemda and Miplyffa; (ii) anticipated cost synergies resulting from the XOMA acquisition that are expected to substantially offset incremental operating expenses associated with the acquired business; partially offset by (iii) modestly lower other income, reflecting capital deployed to fund the XOMA acquisition and the related reduction in interest income on cash balances. The Company continues to expect adjusted earnings per diluted share1 of approximately $8.50 to $9.50 and full-year 2026 royalty revenue to be in the range of $225 million to $250 million. Revenue from sales of Captisol is unchanged at $35 million to $40 million and contract revenue is unchanged at $10 million to $20 million, resulting in total revenue of $270 million to $310 million.

First Quarter 2026 Corporate Highlights and Portfolio Updates

On April 27, 2026, Ligand and XOMA, both biotechnology royalty aggregators, announced that the companies entered into a definitive agreement under which Ligand will acquire XOMA for $39.00 per share of common stock in cash. XOMA stockholders are expected to separately receive one non-transferable Contingent Value Right (“CVR”) per share entitling the holders to receive a portion of 75% of the net proceeds that may result from certain pending litigation at XOMA. The cash purchase price at close represents an approximately 14% premium to XOMA’s 30 trading day volume weighted average price as of April 24, 2026, the last trading day prior to announcement of the transaction. The transaction is expected to close in the third quarter of 2026, subject to customary closing conditions. Ligand intends to fund the transaction through a combination of cash on hand and borrowings under its existing revolving credit facility, and expects to retain sufficient capital capacity to continue executing its capital deployment strategy of investing approximately $150 million to $250 million annually in high-value royalty assets.

The acquisition further diversifies Ligand’s royalty portfolio across therapeutic areas such as ophthalmology, oncology, CNS and rare diseases and across stages of development and biopharma partners. The anticipated XOMA acquisition will add over 120 commercial, clinical, and preclinical-stage assets to Ligand’s broad and growing royalty portfolio, highlighted by Roche’s Vabysmo (faricimab-svoa), Day One Pharmaceuticals’, now Servier’s, Ojemda (tovorafenib), Zevra Therapeutics’ Miplyffa (arimoclomol), and 14 programs in late-stage development, highlighted by Takeda’s mezagitamab and certain assets from Takeda’s externalized asset portfolio, including osavampator, volixibat and OHB-607.

Filspari

On April 13, 2026, Travere announced the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved Filspari to reduce proteinuria in adult and pediatric patients aged 8 years and older with FSGS, in patients without nephrotic syndrome. Filspari is currently the first and only medicine approved by the FDA for the treatment of FSGS, marking its expansion beyond IgA nephropathy (IgAN) into a second rare kidney disease.

People with FSGS who do not have nephrotic syndrome span across different types of FSGS and represent a population aligned with the KDIGO guidelines for treating glomerular diseases. Travere estimates that the addressable population in the U.S. is more than 30,000 individuals with FSGS who do not have nephrotic syndrome.

On May 4, 2026, Travere announced first quarter results and recent business highlights:

  • Filspari achieved record 993 new patient start forms for IgAN in the U.S. in the first quarter; U.S. net product sales grew 88% year over year to $105 million
  • The first FSGS patients were treated within one week of approval
  • The SPARX Study evaluating Filspari in post-transplant patients with recurrent IgAN or FSGS is on track to complete enrollment in the second quarter of 2026

Qtorin rapamycin

On February 24, 2026, Palvella announced positive topline results from its Phase 3 SELVA study of Qtorin rapamycin for the treatment of microcystic lymphatic malformations (MLMs). The Phase 3 trial met its primary endpoint with statistically significant improvement on the Microcystic LM Investigator Global Assessment and achieved statistical significance on its pre-specified key secondary endpoint and all four secondary efficacy endpoints. Qtorin rapamycin was well tolerated, with no drug-related serious adverse events reported and systemic rapamycin levels below 2 ng/mL at all timepoints for all participants. 98% of participants who completed the efficacy evaluation period elected to continue to receive Qtorin rapamycin in the ongoing treatment extension period.

On March 31, 2026, Palvella announced fourth quarter results and recent business highlights:

  • NDA for Qtorin rapamycin for the treatment of MLM is on track for planned submission in second half of 2026
  • Accelerating U.S. launch readiness for Qtorin rapamycin for MLMs; potential to become the first FDA-approved therapy and first-line, standard-of-care treatment for this serious, lifelong disease affecting an estimated more than 30,000 diagnosed patients in the U.S.
  • Initiation of the Phase 3 trial of Qtorin rapamycin for the treatment of cutaneous venous malformations is planned for second half of 2026
  • Initiation of the Phase 2 trial of Qtorin rapamycin for the treatment of clinically significant angiokeratomas is planned for second quarter of 2026

On May 4, 2026, Palvella announced the first patients have been dosed in LOTU, a Phase 2 clinical trial designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Qtorin rapamycin for the treatment of clinically significant angiokeratomas. Clinically significant angiokeratomas represent a rare, chronic and debilitating lymphatic malformation with no FDA approved therapies and an estimated more than 50,000 diagnosed patients in the U.S. Topline results from the Phase 2 trial are expected in the second half of 2027.

Lasofoxifene

On March 26, 2026, LeonaBio announced fourth quarter results and recent business highlights:

  • Lasofoxifene is currently in a Phase 3 clinical trial in combination with abemaciclib, a CDK4/6 inhibitor, as a targeted therapy for estrogen receptor-positive (ER+), HER2-negative, ESR1-mutated metastatic breast cancer, a population with limited treatment options following progression on aromatase inhibitors and CDK4/6 inhibitors. The primary endpoint of the study is statistically significant improvement in progression free survival (PFS) as determined by blinded, independent central review (BICR). The ongoing Phase 3 trial aims to establish a new standard of care for this genetically defined patient group
  • LeonaBio is amending the ELAINE-3 trial protocol to increase the sample size from 500 participants to up to 600 participants. The primary goal of the amendment is to help ensure that the trial will have the appropriate number of disease progression events. The Company expects to complete enrollment of the Phase 3 ELAINE-3 clinical trial in the fourth quarter of 2026 and to have topline data in the second half of 2027

AVIM Therapy/Virtue SAB

On March 12, 2026, Orchestra BioMed announced fourth quarter results and recent business highlights:

  • Accelerated patient enrollment of the BACKBEAT global pivotal study, in collaboration with Medtronic, evaluating the efficacy and safety of AVIM Therapy for the treatment of uncontrolled hypertension in patients indicated for a pacemaker
  • Initiated patient enrollment in the Virtue SAB U.S. pivotal trial, a randomized head-to-head IDE registrational clinical trial comparing Virtue SAB with the commercially available AGENT paclitaxel-coated balloon for the treatment of coronary in-stent restenosis

On April 30, 2026, Orchestra BioMed announced that the FDA has granted Breakthrough Device Designation (“BDD”) for AVIM Therapy specific to patients with uncontrolled hypertension despite the use of anti-hypertensive medications, and an indication for a pacemaker.

Together, the two BDD’s for AVIM Therapy cover indications that encompass both the broader population of patients with uncontrolled hypertension despite medication and increased cardiovascular risk as well as the specific pacemaker-indicated population with uncontrolled hypertension being evaluated in the BACKBEAT global pivotal trial, which Orchestra BioMed is conducting in collaboration with Medtronic. This additional BDD supports strategic optionality for the clinical, regulatory and commercial reimbursement strategies for AVIM Therapy.

Bot/Bal

On April 1, 2026, Agenus announced the first patient enrolled in the landmark global Phase 3 BATTMAN trial. This study is evaluating Agenus’ immunotherapy combination of botensilimab plus balstilimab (“Bot/Bal”) versus best supportive care in patients with refractory, unresectable microsatellite stable (MSS)/mismatch repair proficient (pMMR) metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC), a population long considered resistant to immunotherapy. The BATTMAN trial serves as the registrational-enabling study for Bot/Bal, enrolling approximately 830 patients and is expected to complete global enrollment quickly, reflecting the unprecedented investigator and patient enthusiasm worldwide.

Tzield

On April 22, 2026, Sanofi announced the FDA approved the supplemental biologic license application for Tzield, expanding the indication from eight years and older to as young as one year of age to delay the onset of stage 3 type 1 diabetes (T1D) in patients diagnosed with stage 2 T1D. The approval was granted under a priority review process and is supported by one-year data from the PETITE-T1D Phase 4 study, evaluating safety and pharmacokinetics in young children.

Adjusted Financial Measures

Ligand reports adjusted net income from continuing operations, adjusted net income per diluted share and adjusted earnings per diluted share in addition to, and not as a substitute for, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP, and does not consider such measures superior to GAAP results. The Company also reports “core” versions of these measures, which exclude any realized gains from the sale of Viking Therapeutics common stock.

Adjusted earnings per diluted share is a key component of the financial metrics utilized by the Company’s board of directors to evaluate management performance and determine certain elements of management compensation. GAAP results include items such as share‑based compensation expense, amortization of acquisition‑related and intangible assets, changes in contingent liabilities, mark‑to‑market adjustments on investments in public companies, transaction‑related costs and related tax effects, which are excluded from adjusted results and are detailed in the reconciliations included at the end of this press release.

Conference Call and Webcast

Ligand management will host a conference call today beginning at 8:30 a.m. Eastern Time (5:30 a.m. Pacific Time) to discuss its results and answer questions. To participate via telephone, please dial (833) 461-5787 using the conference ID 304603090. International participants outside of Canada may use the toll number +1(585) 542-9983.

  • Net sales increased 5% excluding the impact from our decision to exit approximately $5 million low-margin products with the idling of two rotational molding facilities in the fourth quarter of 2025. Infrastructure grew 26% and Consumer grew 14%, offset by soft Vehicle and Food & Beverage demand, down 14% and 12%, respectively.

  • Gross profit and Operating income increased due to favorable mix, lower material costs, and lower manufacturing costs from our Focused Transformation program.

Balance Sheet & Cash Flow

  • Total liquidity was $289.3 million, including $244.7 million of availability under the revolving credit facility and $44.6 million in cash on hand.

  • Cash flow from operations was $26.7 million, free cash flow was $23.9 million, and capital expenditures were $2.8 million.

  • Net debt as defined by the credit agreement was reduced by $18.3 million with a net leverage ratio of 2.2x.

Portfolio Transformation

The Company realigned its organizational structure into a single segment. With the change, the Company revised its financial presentation to improve peer comparability and incorporate shareholder input. To this end, the Company has:

  • Elected to exclude intangible asset amortization from adjusted EPS calculation to better reflect current operating performance

  • Reclassified shipping and handling costs into Cost of Sales effective January 1, 2026. Previously, the internal costs were included in operating expenses within SG&A and the external costs were included within Freight Out.

  • Restated sales by end market for the past five quarters to exclude Myers Tire Supply:

Caution on Forward-Looking Statements

Statements in this release include “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the safe harbor provisions of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including information regarding the Company’s financial outlook, future plans, objectives, business prospects and anticipated financial performance. Forward-looking statements can be identified by words such as “will,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “expect,” “estimate,” “intend,” “plan,” or variations of these words, or similar expressions. These forward-looking statements are neither historical facts nor assurances of future performance. Instead, they are based only on the Company’s current beliefs, expectations and assumptions regarding the future of our business, future plans and strategies, projections, anticipated events and trends, the economy and other future conditions. Because forward-looking statements relate to the future, these statements inherently involve a wide range of uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict and many of which are outside of our control. The Company’s actual actions, results, and financial condition may differ materially from what is expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements.

Specific factors that could cause such a difference on our business, financial position, results of operations and/or liquidity include, without limitation, raw material availability, increases in raw material costs, or other production costs; risks associated with our strategic growth initiatives or the failure to achieve the anticipated benefits of such initiatives; unanticipated downturn in business relationships with customers or their purchases; competitive pressures on sales and pricing; changes in the markets for the Company’s business segments; changes in trends and demands in the markets in which the Company competes; operational problems at our manufacturing facilities or unexpected failures at those facilities; future economic and financial conditions in the United States and around the world, including the impacts of U.S. and foreign tariff policies; inability of the Company to meet future capital requirements; claims, litigation and regulatory actions against the Company; changes in laws and regulations affecting the Company; unforeseen events, including natural disasters, unusual or severe weather events and patterns, public health crises, geopolitical crises, and other catastrophic events; our ability to successfully execute our announced intended divestiture of the Myers Tire Supply business; and other risks and uncertainties detailed from time to time in the Company’s filings with the SEC, including without limitation, the risk factors disclosed in Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025. Given these factors, as well as other variables that may affect our operating results, readers should not rely on forward-looking statements, assume that past financial performance will be a reliable indicator of future performance, nor use historical trends to anticipate results or trends in future periods. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date thereof. The Company expressly disclaims any obligation or intention to provide updates to the forward-looking statements and the estimates and assumptions associated with them.

Climb Bio Reports First Quarter 2026 Financial Results and Provides Business Updates

Robust B-cell depletion observed with budoprutug subcutaneous formulation in healthy volunteers, supporting continued development

CLYM116 modeling and initial Phase 1 safety data to be presented at ERA 2026 with initial Phase 1 PK/PD data expected mid-2026

Budoprutug pMN, ITP, and SLE clinical trials enrolling to plan; anticipate data from all ongoing trials in 2026

Secured $110 million private placement led by top-tier healthcare investors

WELLESLEY HILLS, Mass., May 07, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Climb Bio, Inc. (Nasdaq: CLYM), a clinical-stage biotechnology company developing therapeutics for patients with immune-mediated diseases, today reported financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2026, and provided business updates.

“During the first quarter, we continued to execute on a focused development strategy aimed at generating clear clinical and translational data across our two programs,” said Aoife Brennan, M.B., Ch.B., President and Chief Executive Officer of Climb Bio. “For budoprutug, our anti-CD19 monoclonal antibody, we recently hosted an R&D Spotlight highlighting our clinical progress, including topline data from the subcutaneous formulation and the broader potential opportunity for CD19 targeting in autoimmune disease. With multiple studies underway, we believe we are well positioned to assess the potential of budoprutug across several indications with significant unmet need. In parallel, we continue to advance CLYM116, our anti-APRIL monoclonal antibody, and look forward to sharing additional data on this program in the coming months. As we move through 2026, we remain focused on disciplined execution and building a robust data foundation to inform the long-term potential of both programs.”

Budoprutug Program Updates and Anticipated Milestones

  • Budoprutug CD19 R&D Spotlight held May 5, 2026. The Company held a webcast to review the development strategy and program updates for budoprutug, the potential opportunity presented by targeting CD19, and anticipated upcoming data readouts.
  • Presented data from Phase 1 trial of subcutaneous (SC) formulation in healthy volunteers. At the recent R&D Spotlight the Company shared data from the completed Phase 1 trial of budoprutug’s SC formulation. Data demonstrated robust B-cell depletion that was similar between SC and intravenous (IV) administration at matched doses. These results, together with a favorable pharmacodynamic and tolerability profile, support advancement into an autoimmune patient study to evaluate full B-cell depleting doses and optimal dosing regimen. Plan to initiate a multiple-dose study of the SC formulation in autoimmune patients.
  • PrisMN Phase 2 primary membranous nephropathy (pMN) trial, enrollment ongoing; Fast Track Designation (FTD) granted by FDA. PrisMN is a global open-label, dose-ranging Phase 2 study designed to evaluate pharmacodynamics (including B cells, anti-PLA2R (Phospholipase A2 Receptor), and total immunoglobulin) and preliminary efficacy (including complete and partial remission) in pMN patients with persistent proteinuria despite optimized renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) inhibition, and to identify a dose for Phase 3 clinical development. In April, the U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA) granted FTD to budoprutug for the treatment of pMN. Anticipate initial data, including preliminary B cell and anti-PLA2R data from low dose cohort (200mg at 12-24 weeks), in Q4 2026.
  • Phase 1b/2a immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) trial, enrollment ongoing. This global open-label, dose-escalation Phase 1b/2a trial of budoprutug in previously treated patients with ITP is designed to evaluate safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD), and preliminary efficacy, including B-cell depletion and platelet counts. Data from this trial are expected to provide a deeper understanding of budoprutug activity and dosing and will help inform future development. Anticipate initial data, including initial B-cell depletion and platelet data from the low dose cohort (250mg at 24 weeks), in June 2026
  • Global Phase 1b systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) trial, enrollment ongoing; China Phase 1b/2a SLE trial, in study start-up. The global, open-label, dose-escalation Phase 1b trial of budoprutug in moderate to severe SLE is designed to evaluate safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and preliminary efficacy, including B-cell depletion, autoantibody levels, and clinical activity. The parallel China Phase 1b/2a trial in SLE is anticipated to provide complementary data and will also seek to enroll SLE patients with lupus nephritis. Data from these trials are expected to provide insights into budoprutug activity and will also help to inform future development efforts for our program broadly. Anticipate initial B cell data from the Global study, in Q4 2026 and anticipate first patient dosed in China SLE study in Q2 2026.

CLYM116 Program Updates and Anticipated Milestones

  • Climb Bio to present modeling data for CLYM116 at the upcoming European Renal Association Congress in June. These data will include PK and PD modeling from nonhuman primates to humans, as well as initial safety data from the ongoing Phase 1 study in healthy volunteers.
  • Phase 1 healthy volunteer study, enrollment ongoing. This Phase 1 trial in healthy volunteers is evaluating safety, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of CLYM116. Separately, the Company’s partner, Beijing Mabworks Biotech Co., Ltd. (NEEQ Code: 874070, Mabworks), continues to enroll its Phase 1/2 study consisting of a single ascending dose study in healthy volunteers, followed by a multiple ascending dose study in IgAN patients. Anticipate initial PK/PD data from Phase 1 healthy volunteer study in mid-2026.

Corporate Updates

  • On April 29, 2026, the Company completed a private placement financing, generating approximately $110 million in gross proceeds, further strengthening the balance sheet ahead of multiple anticipated data readouts.

Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2025 Financial Results and Guidance

  • Cash Position: Cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities were $146.3 million as of March 31, 2026. Based on its current operating plan, the Company expects this balance to fund operations into 2028, excluding the gross proceeds received from the April 2026 private placement. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the recently completed financing on its operating plan and expects to provide updated cash runway guidance at a later date.
  • Research and Development (R&D) expenses: R&D expenses were $9.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $17.3 million for the comparable period in 2025, including the $9 million upfront payment to Beijing Mabworks Biotech Co., Ltd. as part of the license agreement for CLYM116.
  • General and Administrative (G&A) expenses: G&A expenses were $5.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $6.0 million for the comparable period in 2025.
  • Other income, net: Other income, net was $1.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $2.2 million for the comparable period in 2025.

About Climb Bio, Inc.

Climb Bio, Inc. is a clinical-stage biotechnology company with a mission to deliver high impact, disease-modifying medicines for individuals living with immune-mediated diseases, including those affecting kidney health. The Company’s pipeline includes, budoprutug, an anti-CD19 monoclonal antibody that has potential to treat a broad range of B-cell mediated diseases, and CLYM116, an anti-APRIL monoclonal antibody being developed for IgA nephropathy. For more information, please visit climbbio.com

About Budoprutug

Budoprutug is a clinical-stage, anti-CD19 monoclonal antibody with the potential to address a broad range of B-cell mediated, immune-driven diseases. Designed with enhanced effector function and low picomolar affinity, budoprutug targets and depletes CD19-expressing B cells, including plasmablasts and certain plasma cells, key sources of pathogenic autoantibodies. Early clinical data suggest budoprutug may offer durable B-cell depletion, rapid reductions in autoantibodies, and clinical remission in primary membranous nephropathy (pMN). Budoprutug is being evaluated in clinical trials for pMN, immune thrombocytopenia (ITP), and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). A subcutaneous formulation is also in development to enable broader patient access. Budoprutug has been granted Orphan Drug Designation and Fast Track Designation by the FDA for the treatment of pMN.

About CLYM116

CLYM116 is a clinical-stage monoclonal antibody targeting APRIL (A Proliferation-Inducing Ligand), a key driver of pathogenic B-cell activity in autoimmune diseases. CLYM116 employs a novel pH-dependent bind-and-release ‘sweeper’ mechanism to potently block APRIL signaling, promote lysosomal degradation of APRIL, and recycle the antibody to extend its half-life. This differentiated design offers the potential for rapid, deep, and durable inhibition of APRIL with a favorable safety profile and less frequent dosing. CLYM116 is being advanced for the treatment of IgA nephropathy (IgAN) and may also have broader utility across other B-cell mediated diseases where APRIL plays a critical role.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

(UNAUDITED)

To supplement the condensed consolidated financial statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), the Company uses the following non-GAAP financial measures: Restaurant-level profit, Restaurant-level profit margin, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted pro forma net income and adjusted pro forma earnings per fully exchanged and diluted share (collectively the “non-GAAP financial measures”).

Restaurant-Level Profit

Restaurant-level profit is defined as Shack sales less Shack-level operating expenses including Food and paper costs, Labor and related expenses, Other operating expenses and Occupancy and related expenses.

How This Measure Is Useful

When used in conjunction with GAAP financial measures, Restaurant-level profit and Restaurant-level profit margin are supplemental measures of operating performance that the Company believes are useful measures to evaluate the performance and profitability of its Shacks. Additionally, Restaurant-level profit and Restaurant-level profit margin are key metrics used internally by management to develop internal budgets and forecasts, as well as assess the performance of its Shacks relative to budget and against prior periods. It is also used to evaluate employee compensation as it serves as a metric in certain performance-based employee bonus arrangements. The Company believes presentation of Restaurant-level profit and Restaurant-level profit margin provides investors with a supplemental view of its operating performance that can provide meaningful insights to the underlying operating performance of the Shacks, as these measures depict the operating results that are directly impacted by the Shacks and exclude items that may not be indicative of, or are unrelated to, the ongoing operations of the Shacks. It may also assist investors to evaluate the Company’s performance relative to peers of various sizes and maturities and provides greater transparency with respect to how management evaluates the business, as well as the financial and operational decision-making.

Limitations of the Usefulness of this Measure

Restaurant-level profit and Restaurant-level profit margin may differ from similarly titled measures used by other companies due to different methods of calculation. Presentation of Restaurant-level profit and Restaurant-level profit margin is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. Restaurant-level profit excludes certain costs, such as General and administrative expenses and Pre-opening costs, which are considered normal, recurring cash operating expenses and are essential to support the operation and development of the Company’s Shacks. Therefore, this measure may not provide a complete understanding of the Company’s operating results as a whole and Restaurant-level profit and Restaurant-level profit margin should be reviewed in conjunction with the Company’s GAAP financial results.

A reconciliation of Restaurant-level profit to Income (loss) from operations, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, is set forth below.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

(UNAUDITED)

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA

EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure, is defined as Net income (loss) before interest expense (net of interest income), Income tax expense (benefit) and Depreciation and amortization expense. Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure, is defined as EBITDA excluding equity-based compensation expense, Impairments, loss on the disposal of assets, and Shack closures, amortization of cloud-based software implementation costs, as well as certain non-recurring items that the Company does not believe directly reflect its core operations and may not be indicative of the Company’s recurring business operations.

How These Measures Are Useful

When used in conjunction with GAAP financial measures, EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA are supplemental measures of operating performance that the Company believes are useful measures to facilitate comparisons to historical performance and competitors’ operating results. Adjusted EBITDA is a key metric used internally by management to develop internal budgets and forecasts and also serves as a metric in its performance-based equity incentive programs and certain bonus arrangements. The Company believes presentation of EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA provides investors with a supplemental view of the Company’s operating performance that facilitates analysis and comparisons of its ongoing business operations because they exclude items that may not be indicative of the Company’s ongoing operating performance.

Limitations of the Usefulness of These Measures

EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA may differ from similarly titled measures used by other companies due to different methods of calculation. Presentation of EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA exclude certain normal recurring expenses. Therefore, these measures may not provide a complete understanding of the Company’s performance and should be reviewed in conjunction with the GAAP financial measures.

A reconciliation of EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA to Net income (loss), the most directly comparable GAAP measure, is set forth below.

SHAKE SHACK INC.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

(UNAUDITED)

Adjusted Pro Forma Net Income and Adjusted Pro Forma Earnings Per Fully Exchanged and Diluted Share

Adjusted pro forma net income represents Net income (loss) attributable to Shake Shack Inc. assuming the full exchange of all outstanding SSE Holdings, LLC membership interests (“LLC Interests”) for shares of Class A common stock, adjusted for certain non-recurring items that the Company does not believe are directly related to its core operations and may not be indicative of recurring business operations. Adjusted pro forma earnings per fully exchanged and diluted share is calculated by dividing adjusted pro forma net income by the weighted-average shares of Class A common stock outstanding, assuming the full exchange of all outstanding LLC Interests, after giving effect to the dilutive effect of outstanding equity-based awards.

How These Measures Are Useful

When used in conjunction with GAAP financial measures, adjusted pro forma net income and adjusted pro forma earnings per fully exchanged and diluted share are supplemental measures of operating performance that the Company believes are useful measures to evaluate performance period over period and relative to its competitors. By assuming the full exchange of all outstanding LLC Interests, the Company believes these measures facilitate comparisons with other companies that have different organizational and tax structures, as well as comparisons period over period because it eliminates the effect of any changes in Net income (loss) attributable to Shake Shack Inc. driven by increases in its ownership of SSE Holdings, which are unrelated to the Company’s operating performance, and excludes items that are non-recurring or may not be indicative of ongoing operating performance.

Limitations of the Usefulness of These Measures

Adjusted pro forma net income and adjusted pro forma earnings per fully exchanged and diluted share may differ from similarly titled measures used by other companies due to different methods of calculation. Presentation of adjusted pro forma net income and adjusted pro forma earnings per fully exchanged and diluted share should not be considered alternatives to Net income (loss) and earnings (loss) per share, as determined under GAAP. While these measures are useful in evaluating the Company’s performance, it does not account for the earnings attributable to the non-controlling interest holders and therefore does not provide a complete understanding of the Net income (loss) attributable to Shake Shack Inc. Adjusted pro forma net income and adjusted pro forma earnings per fully exchanged and diluted share should be evaluated in conjunction with GAAP financial results.

A reconciliation of adjusted pro forma net income to Net income (loss) attributable to Shake Shack Inc., the most directly comparable GAAP measure, and the computation of adjusted pro forma earnings per fully exchanged and diluted share are set forth below.
