(Nasdaq: ASMB), a biotechnology company developing innovative therapeutics targeting serious viral and liver diseases, today reported financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2026, and recent business updates.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis quarter, we rapidly advanced our liver disease program by initiating the Phase 2 study of ABI-6250 in chronic hepatitis delta virus and preparing for our Phase 2 study in cholestatic liver diseases, which we expect to begin in the first quarter next year,\u201d said Jason Okazaki, chief executive officer and president of Assembly Bio. \u201cAlongside that progress, we elected to share U.S. costs and profits for the HSV helicase primase inhibitor program under our collaboration with Gilead, a decision we believe represents a significant opportunity to build long-term value. With a strong financial position, we look forward to the continued expansion of our pipeline and advancement of the herpesvirus and liver disease programs through their respective Phase 2 studies.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\n        <strong>Third Quarter 2026 and Recent Updates<\/strong>\n      <\/p>\n<ul type=\"disc\">\n<li style=\"margin-top:8.95pt;margin-bottom:12pt\">\n          <strong>Recurrent genital herpes<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul type=\"circle\">\n<li style=\"margin-top:8.95pt;margin-bottom:12pt\">Exercised the company\u2019s option to participate in a 40% share of U.S. development costs and profits for the herpes simplex virus (HSV) helicase primase inhibitor (HPI) program under its collaboration with Gilead Sciences, Inc.

The company\u2019s cash position, together with the $75 million collaboration extension fee received from Gilead in November 2026 following the third anniversary of the collaboration agreement, is projected to fund operations into 2029.<\/li>\n<li style=\"margin-top:8.95pt;margin-bottom:12pt\">\n          <strong>Revenue <\/strong>from collaborative research with Gilead was $3.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2026, compared to $10.8 million for the same period in 2025. The decrease was primarily due to an $11.3 million reduction in the transaction price of our HPI license, reflecting research and development costs under the Profit-Share that we estimate are probable of being reimbursed to Gilead, partially offset by an increase in research and development activities we performed under the Gilead Collaboration Agreement.<\/li>\n<li style=\"margin-top:8.95pt;margin-bottom:12pt\">\n          <strong>Research and development expenses<\/strong> were $20.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2026, compared to $16.6 million for the same period in 2025. The increase was primarily driven by higher external program expenses, reflecting the start-up of multiple clinical studies for ABI-6250 and increased research and discovery activities, as well as higher employee-related expenses. These increases were partially offset by lower external program expenses for GS-1179 and GS-5366 following completion of their Phase 1 clinical studies. Gilead now leads further development of the HSV HPI program, with Assembly Bio responsible for 40% of U.S. development costs.<\/li>\n<li style=\"margin-top:8.95pt;margin-bottom:12pt\">\n          <strong>General and administrative expenses<\/strong> were $6.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2026, compared to $5.1 million for the same period in 2025, primarily driven by higher stock-based compensation expense and increased commercial planning and market research expenses.<\/li>\n<li style=\"margin-top:8.95pt;margin-bottom:12pt\">\n          <strong>Net loss attributable to common stockholders<\/strong> was $20.3 million, or $0.93 per basic and diluted share, for the three months ended September 30, 2026, compared to $9.2 million, or $0.72 per basic and diluted share, for the same period in 2025. <\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>\n        <strong>About GS-1179<\/strong><br \/>\n        <br \/>GS-1179, formerly ABI-1179, is an investigational helicase-primase inhibitor being developed for HSV infections. It was advanced through early clinical stage development under Assembly Bio\u2019s collaboration with Gilead. HSV helicase-primase inhibitors target an enzyme complex essential for viral replication and represent a mechanism distinct from currently available nucleoside analog therapies. GS-1179 was selected for advancement by Gilead in the HSV HPI program based on encouraging Phase 1b results and its potential to support once-weekly oral dosing.<\/p>\n<p>\n        <strong>About ABI-6250<\/strong><br \/>\n        <br \/>ABI-6250 is an investigational first-in-class oral small-molecule inhibitor of the sodium taurocholate cotransporting polypeptide (NTCP), a membrane protein selectively expressed on hepatocytes that facilitates bile acid transport into hepatocytes and also serves as the receptor for hepatitis B virus (HBV) and hepatitis delta virus (HDV) to enter hepatocytes. Assembly Bio is developing ABI-6250 for the treatment of chronic HDV infection, where inhibition of NTCP blocks viral entry and represents a clinically validated therapeutic mechanism. ABI-6250 is also being evaluated in cholestatic liver diseases, such as primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) and primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC), where bile acid accumulation in the liver drives liver inflammation and liver injury.<\/p>\n<p>\n        <strong>About the Assembly Bio-Gilead Collaboration<\/strong><br \/>\n        <br \/>In October 2023, Assembly Bio and Gilead entered into a 12-year collaboration to advance the research and development of novel antiviral therapies. Under the collaboration, Gilead has an option to obtain exclusive rights to each of Assembly Bio\u2019s current and future programs, and Assembly Bio is eligible to receive collaboration extension fees, option fees, milestone payments and royalties. Following Gilead\u2019s exercise of an option, Assembly Bio has the right to elect to share costs and profits in the U.S., as well as certain co-promotion rights for future programs.<\/p>\n<p>To date, Gilead has exercised its option for Assembly Bio\u2019s helicase-primase inhibitor program for recurrent genital herpes, and Assembly Bio has elected to participate in a 40% U.S. cost and profit share for the program.<\/p>\n<p>\n        <strong>About Assembly Biosciences<\/strong><br \/>\n        <br \/>Assembly Biosciences is a biotechnology company dedicated to the development of innovative small-molecule therapeutics aimed at advancing the treatment paradigm of serious viral and liver diseases and improving the lives of patients worldwide.
