"We remain committed to working collaboratively with the FDA to establish a clear path forward toward potential U.S. approval. Our objective is clear: to bring the first FDA-approved ophthalmic formulation of bevacizumab to patients in the United States," said Bob Jahr, Chief Executive Officer of Outlook Therapeutics. "In addition, we are encouraged by the continued momentum of our European commercial launch of LYTENAVA, highlighted by our expansion into new markets, as well as our recently announced partnership in Switzerland and growing physician adoption in our initial launch countries."
During the second quarter of fiscal year 2026, Outlook Therapeutics continued to advance the commercial rollout of LYTENAVA (bevacizumab gamma) in Europe. In anticipation of a potential launch in Switzerland, the Company entered into a Commercial Distribution Agreement with Mediconsult AG for the sale and distribution of LYTENAVA (bevacizumab gamma) in Switzerland. As part of the agreement, Mediconsult AG will be responsible for regulatory activities in Switzerland, including seeking and maintaining Marketing Authorization. The Company is targeting a 2027 launch of LYTENAVA in Switzerland in 2027, subject to receipt of Marketing Authorization in that country.
Building on the initial launch momentum, Outlook Therapeutics intends to expand into the Netherlands and Ireland later in 2026 and additional European markets and beyond in 2027. As Outlook Therapeutics continues to see increasing physician adoption and demand in the initial launch countries, the Company remains focused on executing its commercialization strategy to pursue additional launches and potential partnerships inside and outside of Europe and further establishing LYTENAVA as a new treatment option for wet AMD.
The Company also launched a real-world evidence study in Germany to further evaluate the performance of LYTENAVA in routine clinical practice following its approval in the European Union and the United Kingdom. These data are expected to support reimbursement and market access efforts in key European markets, inform potential regulatory interactions, and further strengthen the overall value proposition of LYTENAVA for physicians, patients, and stakeholders.
ONS-5010 U.S. Regulatory Update
Outlook Therapeutics continues to advance its regulatory efforts in the United States for ONS-5010/LYTENAVA (bevacizumab-vikg). The Company conducted its formal dispute resolution meeting with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in April 2026 and remains engaged in the process as it awaits the formal decision from the FDA. The Company has provided a comprehensive package of clinical, functional, pharmacodynamic, and safety data, including results from the NORSE TWO and NORSE EIGHT studies, which the Company believes support the efficacy and safety profile of ONS-5010/LYTENAVA for the treatment of wet AMD. Outlook Therapeutics remains committed to working collaboratively with the FDA to establish a clear path forward toward potential U.S. approval.
Outlook Therapeutics expects a formal decision from the FDA in May 2026.
Financial Highlights for the Second Fiscal Quarter Ended March 31, 2026
For the second fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2026, Outlook Therapeutics reported net loss attributable to common stockholders of $4.5 million, or $0.05 per basic and diluted share. This compares with net loss attributable to common stockholders of $46.4 million, or $1.50 per basic and diluted share for the same period last year.
For the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2026, Outlook Therapeutics reported an adjusted net loss attributable to common stockholders of $14.1 million, or $0.16 per basic and diluted share, as compared to an adjusted net loss attributable to common stockholders of $12.4 million, or $0.40 per basic and diluted share for the second fiscal quarter of 2025.
Adjusted net loss attributable to common stockholders for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2026, excludes $2.5 million of gain from change in fair value of promissory notes, $0.3 million of gain on extinguishment of debt, and $6.8 million of gain from change in fair value of warrant liability.

Net revenue in the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2026, was offset by recurring fixed distribution costs during the quarter. Overall, unit sales of LYTENAVA in Europe for the second fiscal quarter of 2026 were down approximately 10% compared to the quarter ended December 31, 2025, but have trended upward early in the current quarter. Outlook Therapeutics has taken steps to reduce costs in Europe in an effort to improve margins in future quarters.
In March 2026, Outlook Therapeutics reported that it had restructured its outstanding convertible promissory note to extend the maturity until December 2026, as well as entered into a non-convertible promissory note that was used to reduce the outstanding balance of the convertible note. Additionally, the Company completed a public offering of common stock and accompanying warrants in March 2026, for approximately $4.0 million of net proceeds, after deducting placement agent fees and other offering expenses.

As of March 31, 2026, Outlook Therapeutics had cash and cash equivalents of $7.7 million, which does not include the net proceeds of the April 2026 registered direct offering.
About ONS-5010 / LYTENAVA (bevacizumab-vikg, bevacizumab gamma)
ONS-5010/LYTENAVA is an ophthalmic formulation of bevacizumab produced in the United States for the treatment of wet AMD. LYTENAVA (bevacizumab gamma) is the subject of a centralized Marketing Authorization granted by the European Commission in the EU and a Marketing Authorization granted by the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) in the UK for the treatment of wet AMD.
In the United States, ONS-5010/LYTENAVA (bevacizumab-vikg) is investigational. In certain European Union Member States, ONS-5010/LYTENAVA must receive pricing and reimbursement approval before it can be sold.
Bevacizumab-vikg (bevacizumab gamma in the EU and UK) is a recombinant humanized monoclonal antibody (mAb) that selectively binds with high affinity to all isoforms of human vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and neutralizes VEGF’s biologic activity through a steric blocking of the binding of VEGF to its receptors Flt-1 (VEGFR-1) and KDR (VEGFR-2) on the surface of endothelial cells. Following intravitreal injection, the binding of bevacizumab to VEGF prevents the interaction of VEGF with its receptors on the surface of endothelial cells, reducing endothelial cell proliferation, vascular leakage, and new blood vessel formation in the retina.
