"We remain highly encouraged by the continued, strong execution across our programs and the expanding body of clinical and preclinical data reinforcing the strength of our AML-focused pipeline," said Angelos Stergiou, MD, ScD h.c., President and Chief Executive Officer of SELLAS. "The Phase 3 REGAL trial of GPS is advancing as planned as highlighted by the key opinion leaders at our recent R&D event. Momentum around SLS009 also continues to build—our positive Phase 2 data were accepted for presentation at the upcoming ASH (Free ASH Whitepaper) Annual Meeting, and we recently presented preclinical results at ESMO (Free ESMO Whitepaper) demonstrating clear survival benefits in T-PLL."

Dr. Stergiou continued, "Our recent R&D Day was a resounding success and provided an excellent opportunity to share program updates and hear directly from leading experts who expressed genuine enthusiasm for both GPS and SLS009. These achievements highlight the breadth and promise of our pipeline and underscore the complementary potential of our two programs to meaningfully improve outcomes for patients with AML and other hematologic cancers. With a strong financial foundation following the recent warrant exercises and multiple catalysts ahead, we believe SELLAS is entering a transformative period of growth and value creation."

Recent Corporate Highlights:

Phase 3 REGAL Trial of GPS: Following the positive IDMC recommendation announced in August to continue the trial without modification, the Phase 3 REGAL trial of GPS in patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who have achieved complete remission following second-line salvage therapy (CR2) remains on track and continues to execute as planned. The final analysis will be conducted once 80 events (deaths) are reached and is anticipated by year-end 2025. Because the final analysis is event driven, it is difficult to predict with any certainty and it may occur at a different time than currently expected.

Phase 2 SLS009 (Selective CDK9 Inhibitor) in R/R AML: Following the positive results from the Phase 2 study of SLS009 announced in July, data from the ongoing trial evaluating SLS009 in combination with azacitidine (AZA) and venetoclax (VEN) for the treatment of relapsed or refractory (r/r) AML have been accepted for presentation at the upcoming 67th American Society of Hematology (ASH) (Free ASH Whitepaper) Annual Meeting and Exposition, taking place December 6–9, 2025, in Orlando, Florida. The Company continues to advance plans for an 80-patient trial in newly diagnosed AML patients as well as those who become refractory early to AZA/VEN treatment, with enrollment expected to begin in the first quarter of 2026.

Preclinical Data on SLS009 in T-PLL Presented at ESMO (Free ESMO Whitepaper) 2025: In October 2025, preclinical data demonstrating statistically significant survival benefit of SLS009 were presented at the European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO) (Free ESMO Whitepaper) Congress in Berlin, Germany. The results showed that SLS009, as a monotherapy and in combination with VEN, significantly prolonged survival compared to VEN alone in an in vivo patient-derived xenograft model of T-cell prolymphocytic leukemia (T-PLL). These findings further support the therapeutic potential of SLS009 to improve outcomes across multiple hematologic malignancies.

Virtual R&D Day on Advancing Novel Therapies in AML: On October 29, 2025, SELLAS hosted a virtual R&D Day on "Advancing Novel Therapies in Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML)" featuring key opinion leaders and Company management. The event provided a detailed review of the Company’s ongoing Phase 3 REGAL trial of GPS and the SLS009 program, underscoring each therapy’s potential to address multiple stages of disease progression along the AML treatment continuum.

Received $54.6 Million in Gross Proceeds from Warrant Exercises: In September and October 2025, SELLAS received a total of approximately $54.6 million in gross proceeds from the immediate exercise of existing warrants, including $23.6 million from warrants issued in January 2025 and $31.0 million from warrants issued in March and August 2024.

Financial Results for the Third Quarter 2025:

R&D Expenses: Research and development expenses for the quarter ended September 30, 2025 were $4.2 million compared to $4.4 million for the same period in 2024. The decrease was primarily due to decreases in clinical trial expenses and clinical and regulatory consulting costs. Research and development expenses were $11.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to $14.7 million for the same period in 2024. The decrease was primarily due to decreases in clinical trial expenses, manufacturing costs and clinical drug supply purchases, and clinical and regulatory consulting costs, which were primarily driven by the completion of enrollment in the REGAL study in the first quarter of 2024.

G&A Expenses: General and administrative expenses for the third quarter of 2025 were $2.9 million compared to $3.0 million for the same period in 2024. The decrease was primarily attributable to a decrease in professional fees partially offset by an increase in personnel related expenses, including non-cash stock-based compensation. General and administrative expenses were $8.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to $9.9 million for the same period in 2024. The decrease was primarily attributable to a decrease in personnel related expenses driven by the initial recognition of a one-time severance charge in the prior period.

Net Loss: The net loss was $6.8 million for the third quarter of 2025, or a basic and diluted loss per share of $0.06, as compared to a net loss of $7.1 million for the third quarter of 2024, or a basic and diluted loss per share of $0.10. The net loss was $19.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, or a basic and diluted net loss per share of $0.20, as compared to a net loss of $24.1 million for the same period in 2024, or a basic and diluted net loss per share of $0.42.

Cash Position: As of September 30, 2025, cash and cash equivalents totaled approximately $44.3 million. Subsequent to September 30, 2025, the Company received $29.1 million in net proceeds in October 2025 from warrant exercises.

"We continue to make meaningful and measurable progress across our (Z)-endoxifen development strategy in oncology," stated Dr. Steven Quay, Atossa Therapeutics’ Chairman and CEO. "Initiatives include enhanced efficiency, focus and financial discipline with our programs, and readiness as we work to evolve into a commercial company. With a strong balance sheet, a strategically focused team, and the true desire to provide a solution for the millions of women worldwide suffering from breast cancer, we believe we are well-positioned to execute on our planned upcoming IND submission and advance our clinical programs toward key value-creating milestones."

Clinical & Regulatory Developments

Requested a Type C meeting with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to discuss regulatory strategy aimed at accelerating development of (Z)-endoxifen in breast cancer risk reduction – In September 2025, Atossa requested a Type C meeting with the FDA to discuss a regulatory strategy aimed at accelerating development of low-dose (Z)-endoxifen for breast cancer risk reduction. On November 6, 2025, Atossa received preliminary written comments from the FDA regarding the regulatory path for (Z)-endoxifen. The Company expects to meet with the FDA on November 17, 2025, to discuss a development plan intended to support filing an NDA, including the potential use of expedited programs where eligible. Atossa will evaluate any implications for its plans and timelines following receipt of FDA meeting minutes, which are expected to be available in December 2025. This follows the recommendation of Atossa’s team of experts — including an internationally recognized FDA law firm and senior regulatory affairs experts — engaged to review the Company’s extensive (Z)-endoxifen data and the considerable published scientific literature on (Z)-endoxifen to evaluate whether existing evidence could support a faster regulatory path in breast cancer risk-reduction. Atossa has now filed this meeting request to align with the FDA on the requirements needed to complete a New Drug Application (NDA) and expects to update shareholders on the outcome of the meeting before year end 2025, based on standard agency timelines and subject to a timely resolution to the ongoing U.S. government shutdown. While there can be no assurance of a favorable outcome, a successful alignment with the FDA could materially shorten development timelines and reduce future clinical costs.

Streamlined EVANGELINE breast cancer clinical trial to prioritize potential 2026 NDA-enabling activities – In October 2025, Atossa amended its Phase 2 EVANGELINE study of (Z)-endoxifen in premenopausal women with newly diagnosed early-stage ER+/HER2- breast cancer. The amended, non-registrational study design is expected to accelerate objective readouts while reducing projected future study costs, consistent with Atossa’s focus on extending operating runway and deploying capital where it is most impactful. In 2026, Atossa plans to concentrate its resources on near-term, NDA-enabling activities for investigational (Z)-endoxifen.

Named Janet R. Rea, MSPH, as Senior Vice President, R&D to accelerate (Z)-endoxifen toward key regulatory milestones. Appointed Mark Daniel, CPA, as Chief Financial Officer to lead finance, systems, and capital strategy for commercial readiness – In October 2025, Atossa appointed Janet R. Rea, MSPH to its newly created position Senior Vice President, R&D. Ms. Rea brings more than two decades of strategic research and clinical development expertise, with a success record for regulatory approvals, to oversee late-stage (Z)-endoxifen programs with near term priorities that include planned upcoming FDA submissions, interactions, and defining a pathway to commercialization. Also in October 2025, Atossa named Mark Daniel, CPA (WA; inactive), as Chief Financial Officer. Mr. Daniel is a senior finance leader with more than 25 years of experience building the forecasting cadence, systems, and public-company discipline that support revenue scale in global life-science businesses. He has overseen weekly revenue forecasting in partnership with commercial leadership, managed operating expense budgets exceeding $200 million, implemented and certified Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX) controls, and led programs delivering over $50 million in cost savings.

Selected PSI as Contract Research Organization (CRO) for planned pivotal dose ranging study of (Z)-endoxifen in metastatic breast cancer (mBC) – In August 2025, Atossa selected PSI, a leading global CRO, to operationalize and manage its planned (Z)-endoxifen monotherapy dose-ranging study in women with mBC. The study was designed following guidance from the FDA and is intended to directly inform a subsequent Phase 3 trial. The global Phase 2, multi-center dose-ranging study is designed to evaluate (Z)-endoxifen monotherapy for safety, pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics, and preliminary anti-tumor activity. Patient enrollment is expected to follow the planned Investigational New Drug (IND) filing in Q4 2025, with topline data anticipated in 2026.

Highlighted progress in RECAST DCIS platform trial – In October 2025, Atossa announced that Laura J. Esserman, MD, MBA, Professor of Surgery and Radiology at the University of California, San Francisco and Principal Investigator of RECAST, will speak at the Early Detection Research Conference in Portland, OR, about the Company’s collaborative work in the RECAST platform trial for ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS), a biologically heterogeneous, non-invasive breast condition that can progress to invasive breast cancer in a subset of patients. DCIS represents a large, under-served market that is commonly treated like invasive cancer (surgery ± radiation ± endocrine therapy). Demonstrating that a biomarker-guided, non-surgical approach is safe and effective could potentially reshape standard of care and expand use of oral endocrine agents in early-stage disease management. The platform design enables parallel testing of multiple agents, including Atossa’s (Z)-endoxifen, with common imaging and biomarker endpoints to generate comparative signals that can inform registration strategies. The Company believes that early imaging response, biomarker correlation, and active-surveillance suitability rates by arm create interim readout opportunities that can help de-risk later-stage programs and guide payer-relevant health-economic modeling. RECAST is sponsored by Quantum Leap Healthcare Collaborative with research support from NIH and industry partners. This shared-infrastructure model can help accelerate enrollment, broaden site access, and optimize capital efficiency.
Intellectual Property & Patent Portfolio

New Israel Patent – In October 2025, Atossa announced key progress in its global intellectual-property strategy for (Z)-endoxifen, including the issuance of an Israeli patent and continued patent renewals that reinforce protection for the Company’s lead program across major jurisdictions. The Israeli patent (No. 304863), titled, "Methods for Making and Using Endoxifen," was granted on July 2, 2025, with priority to multiple U.S. provisional applications filed in 2017–2018.

Recent Patent Challenges – Two of Atossa’s patents are currently the subject of post–grant challenges (i.e., U.S. Patent Nos. 11,261,151 and 12,071,391), which may result in modification or invalidation of certain patent claims; however, such proceedings are common for high–value pharmaceutical IP, and we remain confident in our ability to vigorously defend these patents. The majority of Atossa’s intellectual property is unaffected. Atossa holds four additional issued U.S. patents with claims to endoxifen—U.S. Patent Nos. 11,680,036, 12,201,591, 12,275,684, and 12,281,056—with over 200 total claims covering proprietary manufacturing methods, stable crystalline forms, and multiple sustained–release and enteric oral formulations of (Z)–endoxifen. We believe that these patents, along with pending applications worldwide, provide substantial additional protection for our lead program.
Strategic Outlook & Upcoming Milestones

Atossa remains focused on executing its breast cancer development strategy. Key upcoming deliverables include:

Working with the FDA on regulatory strategies for breast cancer indications beyond metastatic breast cancer, including women in the adjuvant setting, patients with DCIS, and use in reducing the incidence of breast cancer in high-risk women.
Targeting potential IND submission in Q4 2025, in alignment with feedback under the FDA Project Optimus initiative.
Advancing enrollment and data generation from ongoing Phase 2 trials.

As (Z)-endoxifen is our only product candidate for which we currently incur R&D expenses, we have not further disaggregated R&D expenses by product candidate:

Clinical and non-clinical trial expenses increased $1.8 million and $3.3 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, compared to the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, due to increases in spend related to our (Z)-endoxifen trials, including drug development costs.
The increase in R&D compensation expenses of $0.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2024, was primarily due to an increase in headcount. R&D compensation expense remained relatively flat for the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared to the same period in 2024.
The increases in R&D professional fees and other of $0.1 million and $0.6 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, compared to the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, were primarily attributable to higher regulatory consulting fees in the 2025 periods related to our (Z)-endoxifen program.
General and Administrative (G&A) Expenses. The following table provides a breakdown of major categories within G&A expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, together with the dollar change and percentage change in those categories (dollars in thousands):

The increases in G&A compensation expenses of $0.1 million and $0.8 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, compared to the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, were primarily due to increases in non-cash stock-based compensation expense of $0.1 million and $0.6 million, respectively.
The increases in G&A professional fees and other of $0.8 million and $0.3 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, were primarily due to increases in legal fees of $0.7 million and $0.5 million, respectively, related to higher patent-related activity as well as other legal matters, partially offset by decreases in investor relations costs of $0.3 million due to changes in the timing of investor outreach programs.
Interest Income. Interest income was $0.6 million and $1.9 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, a decrease of $0.4 million and $1.3 million from interest income of $1.0 million and $3.2 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively. The decreases were due to decreases in the average balance invested in our money market account.

Impairment Charge on Investment in Equity Securities. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, we wrote down our Investment in equity securities by $1.7 million due to the impairment of our investment in Dynamic Cell Therapies, Inc. (DCT).

About (Z)-endoxifen
(Z)-endoxifen is a highly potent Selective Estrogen Receptor Modulator/Degrader (SERM/D) with demonstrated ability to inhibit and potentially degrade estrogen receptors. It has shown activity even in tumors that have developed resistance to other endocrine therapies. Beyond its anti-estrogenic properties, (Z)-endoxifen also targets the oncogenic signaling pathway, protein kinase C beta 1 (PKCβ1), at clinically achievable blood and tumor levels. (Z)-endoxifen also seems to deliver comparable or superior bone-protective effects relative to tamoxifen.

Atossa is developing a proprietary enteric oral formulation of (Z)-endoxifen that bypasses stomach acid, which would otherwise partially convert the active (Z)-isomer to its inactive (E)-form. We believe this innovation allows for optimal bioavailability and therapeutic integrity. Clinical studies have shown Atossa’s (Z)-endoxifen to be well tolerated in both healthy women and those with breast cancer. In over 700 subjects (healthy volunteers and breast cancer patients) receiving doses up to 360 mg/day, no maximum tolerated dose (MTD) has been identified, supporting continued dose-range exploration.

Atossa is actively pursuing what it believes are opportunities to accelerate its regulatory path with (Z)-endoxifen for use in several indications in which low dose (Z)-endoxifen could potentially help lower the risk of breast cancer. We expect to share more about the viability of this accelerated path and related milestones by the end of 2025. In addition, Atossa is continuing its ongoing development efforts for use of (Z)-endoxifen in metastatic breast cancer. The compound is currently being evaluated in three Phase 2 studies, one in DCIS and two in ER+/HER2- breast cancer. Further, monotherapy in DCIS and low risk cancer, and combination therapy in high-risk cancer, with Lilly’s CDK4/6 inhibitor, Verzenio (abemaciclib), are being investigated. Atossa’s (Z)-endoxifen program is supported by a growing global intellectual property portfolio, including three recently issued U.S. patents and numerous pending applications worldwide.

"With over 700 patients treated, Plinabulin continues to demonstrate a favorable safety profile and meaningful potential as an immune-modulating therapy with unique mechanism of dendritic cell (DC) maturation and T cell priming," said Dr. Lan Huang, Co-Founder, Chair and Chief Executive Officer of BeyondSpring. "With DC bridging innate and adaptive immunity, Plinabulin offers new hope for patients with NSCLC and other cancers whose disease progresses after checkpoint inhibitors, presented at recent SITC (Free SITC Whitepaper) conference. In addition, results from our global Phase 3 DUBLIN-3 trial, published in The Lancet Respiratory Medicine, showed that Plinabulin in combination with docetaxel achieved durable survival benefits and reduced chemotherapy-induced neutropenia, reinforcing its potential to advance the standard of care and drive long-term value creation."

Dr. Huang added, "At SEED, which we co-founded with Lilly five years ago, we are excited that our RBM39 molecular-glue degrader has received IND clearance from both the US FDA and China NMPA. It is such an honor to be the only target protein degradation company nominated by the Prix Galien Foundation, recognizing our commitment to developing transformative medicine for patients. We are also grateful for the support of our investors and collaborators, including Lilly and Eisai, and clinicians from leading US institutions, as we work together to advance molecular glue development to address undruggable targets for patients with unmet medical needs."

Key Milestones:

Two SITC (Free SITC Whitepaper) 2025 Presentations on Plinabulin Anti-cancer Clinical Benefit:
Resensitize NSCLC Patients Who Progressed on Prior PD-1/L1 Inhibitors with Disease Control Rate of 85% in Phase 2 Clinical Study: New data from a phase 2 investigator-initiated study (NCT05599789, Peking Union Hospital China) evaluating Plinabulin, docetaxel, and pembrolizumab in metastatic NSCLC patients who progressed on prior PD-1/L1 inhibitors (n=47), showed encouraging efficacy and safety data. The combination demonstrated median progression-free survival (PFS) of 7.0 months, confirmed objective response rate (ORR) of 18.2%, duration of response (DOR) of 7.2 months, disease control rate (DCR) of 85%, and 12-month overall survival (OS) rate at 79%, and 24-month OS rate at 66% (median OS not reached).
Resensitize Patients with Eight Cancer Types Who Failed Prior PD-1/L1 Inhibitors with Disease Control Rate of 54% through DC Maturation and M1 Macrophage Polarization via GEF-H1-dependent Mechanism in Phase 1 Clinical Study: This phase 1 investigator-initiated study (NCT04902040, MD Anderdon Cancer Center) shows that in addition to potent DC maturation for a systemic immune response, plinabulin combined with radiation and PD-1 inhibitor promotes proinflammatory monocytes and M1 macrophage polarization via a Plinabulin specific GEF-H1-dependent mechanism with the potential of overcoming acquired resistance to immune checkpoint inhibitors from pro-tumor macrophages.

SEED, Co-founded by BeyondSpring with 38% Equity Share, Secured Financial Position and Achieved IND Clearance: SEED completed its $30 million Series A-3 financing and received U.S. FDA and China NMPA clearance of its Investigational New Drug (IND) application for its lead RBM39 degrader program. SEED was also named a finalist for the 2025 Prix Galien USA "Best Start-Up" Award and co-hosted a targeted protein degradation symposium at NYU Grossman School of Medicine honoring Co-Founder and Nobel Laureate Prof. Avram Hershko, with leading thought leaders in the TPD field as presenters.

"We made significant clinical and regulatory progress in the third quarter," said Brian Sullivan, CEO and co-founder of Celcuity. "At the ESMO (Free ESMO Whitepaper) Congress, we presented potentially practice-changing safety and efficacy results for the gedatolisib regimens from the PIK3CA wild-type cohort of our Phase 3 VIKTORIA-1 trial at a late breaking oral presentation. We remain on track to submit the New Drug Application for gedatolisib later this year based on data from the PIK3CA wild-type cohort. The PIK3CA mutant cohort of the Phase 3 VIKTORIA-1 clinical trial is fully enrolled with topline data expected in late Q1 2026 or during Q2 2026."

"There is an urgent need for more efficacious therapies than those currently available for patients with HR+, HER2- advanced breast cancer who have received prior treatment with a CDK4/6 inhibitor. With our strengthened balance sheet, and unprecedented efficacy results in this patient population, we are well positioned to bring gedatolisib to patients should we get FDA approval."

Third Quarter 2025 Business Highlights and Other Recent Developments

● The Company announced positive topline data for both primary endpoints of the PIK3CA WT cohort of the Phase 3 VIKTORIA-1 clinical trial that evaluated gedatolisib plus fulvestrant with and without palbociclib versus fulvestrant in patients with HR+, HER2- advanced breast cancer ("ABC") whose disease had progressed on or after prior treatment with a CDK4/6 inhibitor. Detailed safety and efficacy results were subsequently presented at a late breaking oral presentation at the 2025 ESMO (Free ESMO Whitepaper) Congress. The results demonstrate the potential for the gedatolisib regimens to be practice changing for patients with HR+, HER2- ABC.

◌ The gedatolisib-triplet (gedatolisib, fulvestrant, and palbociclib) reduced the risk of disease progression or death by 76% compared to fulvestrant based on a hazard ratio ("HR") of 0.24. The median progression free survival ("PFS") was 9.3 months with the gedatolisib triplet versus 2.0 months with fulvestrant, an incremental improvement of 7.3 months.
◌ The gedatolisib doublet (gedatolisib and fulvestrant) reduced the risk of disease progression or death by 67% compared to fulvestrant based on a hazard ratio of 0.33. The median PFS was 7.4 months with the gedatolisib doublet versus 2.0 months with fulvestrant, an incremental improvement of 5.4 months.
◌ Clinical benefit of the gedatolisib regimens was consistent across patient subgroups.
◌ The gedatolisib triplet and doublet were generally well tolerated in the trial with mostly low-grade treatment-related adverse events ("TRAEs"). The most common Grade 3 TRAEs for the gedatolisib triplet, gedatolisib doublet, and fulvestrant groups included neutropenia (52.3%, 0%, and 0.8% of patients, respectively); stomatitis (19.2%, 12.3%, and 0% of patients, respectively); rash (4.6%, 5.4%, and 0% of patients, respectively); and hyperglycemia (2.3%, 2.3%, and 0% of patients, respectively).
◌ Study treatment discontinuation due to TRAEs was reported in 2.3% of patients treated with the gedatolisib triplet and 3.1% of patients with the gedatolisib doublet.
◌ The PIK3CA mutant cohort of the Phase 3 VIKTORIA-1 clinical trial is fully enrolled with topline data expected sometime in late Q1 2026 or during Q2 2026.

● Updated data from a Phase 1b study evaluating gedatolisib plus darolutamide in men with mCRPC was presented at a poster session at the 2025 ESMO (Free ESMO Whitepaper) Congress.

◌ In this Phase 1b study, 38 patients with mCRPC were randomly assigned to receive 600 mg darolutamide twice daily combined with either 120 mg gedatolisib in Arm 1 or 180 mg gedatolisib in Arm 2.
◌ The six-month radiographic PFS ("rPFS") rate and median rPFS for patients from both arms combined was 67% and 9.1 months, respectively. For patients treated with 120 mg gedatolisib, the six-month rPFS rate was 74% and median rPFS was 9.5 months. For patients treated with 180 mg gedatolisib, the six-month rPFS rate was 61% and the median rPFS was 7.4 months.
◌ The combination of gedatolisib and darolutamide was generally well tolerated in the trial with mostly low-grade TRAEs. No dose limiting toxicities were observed in either arm. The only Grade 3 TRAEs for patients from both arms combined included rash (5.3%), stomatitis (2.6%), and pruritus (2.6%); no Grade 3 hyperglycemia was reported. Additionally, no Grade 4 or 5 TRAEs were observed, and no patients discontinued study treatment due to a TRAE.

● The FDA accepted the Company’s request to submit an NDA for gedatolisib under the Real-Time Oncology Review ("RTOR") program based on data from the PIK3CA WT cohort of the Phase 3 VIKTORIA-1 clinical trial. The Company made its first NDA pre-submission in September 2025 and completion of the NDA submission is targeted for the fourth quarter of 2025.

● In July 2025, the first patient was dosed in VIKTORIA-2, a Phase 3 clinical trial evaluating gedatolisib plus a CDK4/6 inhibitor and fulvestrant as a first-line treatment for patients with HR+/HER2- ABC who are endocrine therapy resistant.

● In July 2025, the Company conducted a concurrent public offering of 2.750% convertible senior notes due 2031, common stock and pre-funded warrants. The net proceeds from the offerings were $287 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and the Company’s offering expenses.

● In September 2025, the Company entered into an amendment to its existing senior secured term loan facility with an affiliate of Innovatus Capital Partners, LLC ("Innovatus"), and Oxford Finance LLC and certain of its affiliates (together, "Oxford"). The amendment increases the total term loan facility size to $500 million, including $350 million in committed capital and up to $150 million at the mutual discretion of Celcuity and its lenders.

◌ With the release of the topline data from the PIK3CA WT cohort of the VIKTORIA-1 Phase 3 clinical trial, Celcuity achieved the Term D milestone under the term loan facility and was eligible to draw an additional $30 million. In connection with the amendment, the $30.0 million Term D loan was disbursed and the Company received net proceeds of $27.8 million.
◌ The upsized facility strengthens Celcuity’s ability to manage its capital structure efficiently while providing additional funding to support commercial launch preparations for gedatolisib and other strategic initiatives.

● In the third quarter of 2025, investors exercised warrants generating cash proceeds of $12.8 million. The warrants were issued pursuant to a private placement that closed on December 9, 2022 and had an expiration date of 75 days from the release of the topline data from the PIK3CA WT cohort of the VICTORIA-1 Phase 3 clinical trial.

Third Quarter 2025 Financial Results

Unless otherwise stated, all comparisons are for the third quarter ended September 30, 2025, compared to the third quarter ended September 30, 2024.

Total operating expenses were $42.8 million for the third quarter of 2025, compared to $30.1 million for the third quarter of 2024.

Research and development ("R&D") expenses were $34.9 million for the third quarter of 2025, compared to $27.6 million for the prior-year period. Of the approximately $7.3 million increase in R&D expenses, $5.6 million was related to increased employee and consulting expenses, $3.2 million of which related to commercial headcount additions and other launch-related activities. The remaining $1.7 million increase was primarily related to activities supporting our ongoing clinical trials.

General and administrative ("G&A") expenses were $7.9 million for the third quarter of 2025, compared to $2.5 million for the prior-year period. Of the approximately $5.4 million increase in general and administrative expenses, $4.9 million was related to increased employee and consulting expenses. Of this $4.9 million increase, $4.0 million was related to non-cash, stock-based compensation. The remaining $0.5 million of the $5.4 million increase was primarily related to professional fees, expanding infrastructure and other administrative expenses.

Net loss for the third quarter of 2025 was $43.8 million, or $0.92 loss per share, compared to a net loss of $29.8 million, or $0.70 loss per share, for the third quarter of 2024. Non-GAAP adjusted net loss for the third quarter of 2025 was $37.2 million, or $0.78 loss per share, compared to non-GAAP adjusted net loss of $27.6 million, or $0.65 loss per share, for the third quarter of 2024. Non-GAAP adjusted net loss excludes stock-based compensation expense, non-cash interest expense, and non-cash interest income. Because these items have no impact on Celcuity’s cash position, management believes non-GAAP adjusted net loss better enables Celcuity to focus on cash used in operations. For a reconciliation of financial measures calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP") to non-GAAP financial measures, please see the financial tables at the end of this press release.

Net cash used in operating activities for the third quarter of 2025 was $44.8 million, compared to $20.6 million for the third quarter of 2024.

At September 30, 2025, Celcuity reported cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments of $455.0 million. We expect cash, cash equivalents, investments and drawdowns on our debt facility to fund operations through 2027.
