BeOne’s total revenue guidance for full year 2026 of $6.6 billion to $6.8 billion includes expectations for strong revenue growth driven by BRUKINSA’s leadership position in the U.S. and continued global expansion in both Europe and other important rest of world markets. Gross margin percentage is expected to be in the high-80% range and includes the impact of product mix and a full year of 2026 productivity improvements. Guidance for combined operating expenses on a GAAP basis includes expectations of investment to support growth.
The Company is providing the following additional guidance on items impacting net income and earnings per ADS:
•Other income (expense): Estimated range of $25 million to $50 million in expense, includes interest amortization from Royalty Pharma arrangement.
•Income tax outlook: Earnings may provide sufficient positive evidence to reverse certain valuation allowances in 2026, resulting in a material tax benefit when recognized; the timing and magnitude of a potential reversal is uncertain; prior to reversal, income tax expense should trend with earnings per historical relationship. See Form 10-Q for additional updates on income tax uncertainties.
•Diluted ADS outstanding: The Company expects diluted ADSs outstanding of approximately 118 million.

"Our recent publication in Nature demonstrated our commitment to being the scientific leader in HIF-2α biology and translational medicine. We are leveraging these insights and the differentiated profile of casdatifan compared to that of the competition to ensure that casdatifan becomes the backbone of treatment across every line of therapy in kidney cancer. In the front-line setting especially, we see a clear path to be first-to-market and to provide the best options for physicians and patients," said Terry Rosen, Ph.D., chief executive officer of Arcus. "The ARC-20 platform study and strategic clinical collaborations are enabling us to efficiently pursue an integrated approach across multiple lines of therapy, and we expect this year’s upcoming ARC-20 data readouts in first-, second- and late-line settings to clarify casdatifan’s potential to transform the treatment paradigm for kidney cancer."
Casdatifan (HIF-2α inhibitor)

Development Strategy:
Arcus’s development strategy is designed to generate evidence to secure casdatifan as a backbone therapy in ccRCC so that every patient has the opportunity to benefit from casdatifan across each line of therapy over the course of their care. Arcus is executing on this strategy, including embedding casdatifan into the treatment paradigm in combination with the most commonly used dual-immunotherapy regimen in the first-line setting, nivolumab (an anti-PD-1) plus ipilimumab (an anti-CTLA-4) and the standard of care in the second-line setting, cabozantinib. Arcus’s combinations were selected to complement these two core regimens. The holistic strategy, which has the opportunity to provide the first and only HIF-2α inhibitor-based TKI-sparing first-line therapy, provides consecutive casdatifan-containing regimens in the first-, second- and third-line-plus settings highly aligned with a new treatment paradigm offered by the robust HIF-2α inhibitory profile of casdatifan. In this context, Arcus will also begin to evaluate casdatifan plus TKI-containing regimens in first-line and late-line settings, the latter in belzutifan-experienced patients. Arcus’s newly announced clinical collaborations described below support these efforts, enabling the company to evaluate numerous casdatifan-based combinations in parallel.

Casdatifan Partnership Updates:
•Arcus will receive a $15 million milestone payment from Taiho Pharmaceutical in the third quarter, triggered by PEAK-1 enrollment in Japan, under the parties’ option and license agreement. Taiho holds rights to casdatifan in Japan and certain territories in Asia.
New Clinical Collaborations:
Arcus announced three new clinical collaborations to evaluate casdatifan-based combinations in first-line and late-line ccRCC:
•Bristol Myers Squibb (BMS): Casdatifan combinations will be added as two new arms of the BMS-sponsored Phase 1/2 ROSETTA RCC-208 study in advanced RCC, evaluating casdatifan in combination with the anti-PD-L1/VEGF-A bispecific antibody pumitamig, which is being jointly developed by BioNTech and BMS.
•Summit Therapeutics: A new cohort in the ARC-20 platform study in ccRCC will evaluate casdatifan with the PD-1/VEGF bispecific antibody ivonescimab in the first-line setting.
•AVEO Oncology: A new ARC-20 cohort will evaluate casdatifan with the VEGFR TKI tivozanib in patients previously treated with belzutifan.
•Arcus has also executed one additional clinical collaboration agreement to evaluate a casdatifan combination with another anti-PD-x/VEGF bispecific antibody in first-line ccRCC, which is expected to initiate in the fourth quarter of 2026.
Development Program:
•First-Line ccRCC: The first-line setting today is divided into immunotherapy (IO/IO) regimens, representing roughly one-third of the market, and IO/TKI regimens, representing roughly two-thirds of the market. Arcus’s casdatifan strategy encompasses both, plus another novel TKI-free combination approach:
◦TKI-free (casdatifan plus IO/IO): The cohort evaluating casdatifan plus zimberelimab (anti-PD-1) and ipilimumab (anti-CTLA-4) in the ARC-20 study is currently enrolling, with the purpose of supporting Arcus’s first registrational Phase 3 study, PEAK-20, evaluating casdatifan plus nivolumab plus ipilimumab in the first-line setting, which is expected to initiate by year-end 2026.
◦TKI-containing (casdatifan plus IO/TKI): A casdatifan-based regimen inclusive of the well-established TKI axitinib, for those circumstances where physicians prefer to have a TKI-inclusive therapy, with an ARC-20 cohort expected to begin in the fourth quarter of 2026.
◦Novel TKI-free bispecific combinations (see New Clinical Collaborations above): Casdatifan in combination with anti-PD-x/VEGF bispecifics pumitamig, ivonescimab and one additional antibody with study initiations expected prior to the end of the year.
•IO-Experienced (second-line) ccRCC: Enrollment in PEAK-1, the global Phase 3 study evaluating casdatifan plus cabozantinib versus cabozantinib alone in IO-experienced metastatic ccRCC, is accelerating, and Arcus remains on track to complete enrollment by year-end 2026. Arcus is confident PEAK-1 will establish casdatifan plus cabozantinib as the new standard of care in the IO-experienced setting.
•Late-Line ccRCC: A new randomized ARC-20 cohort will evaluate casdatifan plus tivozanib versus tivozanib alone in patients who received two or more lines of prior therapy, including a belzutifan-containing regimen, which will elucidate the impact of prior HIF-2α inhibitor treatment on casdatifan’s activity. Enrollment in this new ARC-20 cohort is expected to begin in the fourth quarter of 2026.
Casdatifan Research Published in Nature:
In July, Arcus announced that results from the ARC-20 study evaluating casdatifan monotherapy were published in Nature. This is the first study to comprehensively connect clinical outcomes in patients treated with a HIF-2α inhibitor with peripheral biomarker changes and associated tumor biology. HIF-2α inhibition with casdatifan resulted in deep and sustained suppression of the hormone erythropoietin in blood (serum EPO), which correlated with higher response rates and longer PFS.

Planned Data Readouts:
Arcus expects multiple data readouts for casdatifan in 2026:
•In first-line ccRCC, initial data from the ARC-20 cohorts evaluating casdatifan in early-line settings, including early efficacy data for the cohort evaluating casdatifan plus zimberelimab and early safety data for the cohort evaluating casdatifan plus zimberelimab plus ipilimumab in first-line ccRCC.
•In second-line IO-experienced ccRCC, more mature overall response rate data and initial PFS data, including Kaplan-Meier curve(s), for approximately 45 patients treated in the ARC-20 cohort evaluating casdatifan plus cabozantinib. All patients will have had at least 18 months of follow-up.
•In late-line ccRCC, updated data from the ARC-20 monotherapy cohorts, including overall survival data.
Quemliclustat (small-molecule CD73 inhibitor)
•The European Medicines Agency granted orphan drug designation in May 2026 to quemliclustat for the treatment of pancreatic cancer, adding to the orphan drug designation received from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration in June 2025.
•Enrollment was completed in September 2025 for PRISM-1, a Phase 3 trial of quemliclustat combined with gemcitabine/nab-paclitaxel versus gemcitabine/nab-paclitaxel in first-line metastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma. Results from this study are expected in the first half of 2027.
Immunology Portfolio
Arcus is applying its proven expertise developing potent and selective small-molecule drugs to address large markets in immunology, pursuing mechanisms that regulate key cytokines validated by existing biologics and targeting immune cell types that are central to disease but historically understudied. A steady cadence of immunology molecules will be ready for advancement into the clinic, with multiple new clinical candidates expected between 2026 and 2028.
•AB102 (oral MRGPRX2 antagonist): This month, Arcus expects to initiate a first-in-human healthy volunteer study of AB102, a highly selective oral MRGPRX2 antagonist and potential treatment for atopic dermatitis and chronic spontaneous urticaria.
◦In May, Arcus presented preclinical data for AB102 in an oral presentation at the Society for Investigative Dermatology Annual Meeting, which showed its ability to fully block MRGPRX2-dependent mast cell degranulation and transcriptional activation in LAD2 and primary skin mast cells as well as its inhibition of all common human MRGPRX2 variants.
◦A proof-of-concept study evaluating AB102 as a potential oral therapy for patients with chronic spontaneous urticaria is expected in mid-2027.
•TNF Inhibitor: Arcus has selected a development candidate as an oral small-molecule TNF inhibitor, a potential treatment for rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis and inflammatory bowel disease, which is expected to enter the clinic in early 2027.
◦The molecule is designed to selectively block TNFR1 signaling, which could lead to better safety and efficacy than those of approved anti-TNF antibodies that block both TNFR1 and TNFR2 signaling, the latter of which can paradoxically lead to an inflammatory response in some patients.
◦At the European Alliance of Associations for Rheumatology Annual Meeting 2026, Arcus presented data on its small-molecule approach to TNF inhibition, advancing research in conditions such as RA and IBD.
•Additional Targets: Arcus is advancing additional programs across its immunology portfolio. Arcus’s programs for a small-molecule CCR6 antagonist for psoriasis and inflammatory bowel disease, a STAT6 small molecule program for atopic dermatitis and asthma, a CD89 monoclonal antibody program for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis, and a CD40L small molecule program for the treatment of multiple sclerosis and systemic lupus erythematosus, are each expected to deliver IND-ready candidates by the end of 2027.
Anti-TIGIT Program and Related Partnerships
•Following the discontinuations of the Arcus and Gilead STAR-221 and STAR-121 studies in upper gastrointestinal cancer and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), respectively, Arcus and AstraZeneca will discontinue the Phase 3 PACIFIC-8 study, evaluating domvanalimab in combination with durvalumab versus durvalumab alone in patients with PD-L1 positive, Stage III unresectable NSCLC.

•In connection with the wind-down of these Phase 3 trials and resulting streamlined operational relationship with Arcus, Gilead has relinquished its three seats on Arcus’s Board of Directors, effective as of August 5, 2026.
Financial Results for Second Quarter 2026:
•Cash, Cash Equivalents and Marketable Securities were $775 million as of June 30, 2026, compared to $1.0 billion as of December 31, 2025. The decrease during the period is primarily due to the use of cash in our research and development activities. Arcus expects to end 2026 with approximately $600 million in cash. Based on the existing business plan, Arcus believes that its cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities will be sufficient to fund its planned level of operations until at least the second half of 2028.
•Revenues were $41 million for the second quarter 2026, compared to $160 million for the same period in 2025. The decrease in revenue was primarily driven by the cumulative catch-up from license and development services revenue of $143 million in 2025 relating to pausing future development of etrumadenant and Gilead’s related return of its license to the program, partially offset by an increase in access rights revenues recognized in June 2026 related to the expiration of Gilead’s option rights and increased revenues related to programs optioned under the Taiho Collaboration Agreement. Arcus expects to recognize GAAP revenue of between $65 million and $75 million for the full year 2026.
•Research and Development (R&D) Expenses were $113 million for the second quarter 2026, compared to $139 million for the same period in 2025. The decrease was due to (i) late-stage development activities decreasing primarily due to the wind down of the domvanalimab program and the completion of enrollment of PRISM-1, partially offset by increasing activities in our Phase 3 studies for casdatifan; (ii) early-stage development activities decreasing primarily due to the wind down of Phase 2 studies related to domvanalimab and lower Phase 2 study costs for casdatifan; partially offset by (iii) partnership reimbursements decreasing, primarily due to Gilead-led activities representing a larger share of total joint development costs and a shift towards programs fully funded by us. Non-cash stock-based compensation expense was $9 million for the second quarter 2026, compared to $8 million for the same period in 2025. For the second quarters 2026 and 2025, Arcus recognized gross reimbursements of $17 million and $33 million, respectively, for shared expenses from its collaborations. R&D expenses by quarter may fluctuate due to the timing of clinical manufacturing and standard-of-care therapeutic purchases with a corresponding impact on reimbursements.
Arcus expects R&D expenses to continue to decline in the near-term relative to what we have incurred as we wind down studies for domvanalimab. Streamlining initiatives Arcus has undertaken across its R&D operations in connection with this wind-down, together with efficiencies the company is pursuing across its programs outside the Gilead collaboration, are expected to further reduce costs. These decreases will be partially offset by increased investment in the development of casdatifan and advancement of our small-molecule immunology programs.
•General and Administrative (G&A) Expenses were $24 million for the second quarter 2026, compared to $29 million for the same period in 2025. The decrease was primarily due to streamlining initiatives Arcus has undertaken across its operations. Non-cash stock-based compensation expense was $6 million for the second quarter 2026, compared to $7 million for the same period in 2025.
•Net Income (Loss) was $91 million net loss for the second quarter 2026, compared to $— million for the same period in 2025.

Richard Saynor, Chief Executive Officer of Sandoz, said: "Sandoz delivered excellent progress during the first half of the year, building further momentum across the business and reinforcing the growth trajectory. The sales result in the second quarter was particularly encouraging, driven by an outstanding biosimilar performance. Biosimilars now represent a record one-third of net sales, reflecting our ability to successfully translate innovation into launch execution. We added four additional in-house assets to our industry-leading biosimilars pipeline, taking the total to 36. I was also delighted by more progress made in profitability and cash generation, while we continue to invest in sustainable long-term growth.

"The consistent high-growth profile of our biosimilars reinforces our conviction that Sandoz is uniquely well positioned for the opportunities ahead. Our expanding portfolio and pipeline, combined with an increasingly streamlined regulatory environment and the forthcoming completion of our vertically integrated biosimilars platform, will further strengthen our leadership position. We look forward to sharing our plans to maximise value in our golden decade for biosimilars at our Capital Markets Day in September."

BUSINESS HIGHLIGHTS

Sandoz recently announced that it will host a Capital Markets Day in London on 8 September, focused on ‘maximising Sandoz value in its golden decade for biosimilars’. The Company will also host an analyst and investor site visit in Slovenia on 9-10 November, providing participants with the opportunity to visit the expanding biosimilar development and manufacturing network
In July, it was announced that Sandoz will be included in the Swiss Market Index, Switzerland’s leading blue-chip equity index, effective from 21 September
Sandoz recently advanced from third to second position in terms of gross sales of biosimilar and generic medicines in North America[3]
Marking 80 years of antibiotic manufacturing in Europe and 20 years since the approval of the world’s first biosimilar medicine, Omnitrope (somatropin), Sandoz celebrated these milestones through anniversary events, highlighting its heritage in affordable medicines, leadership in biosimilars and the importance of resilient European-medicines production
A new biosimilar development centre in Ljubljana, Slovenia, was officially opened in June, further strengthening the Company’s in-house development capabilities and supporting its long-term biosimilars growth strateg
Sandoz’s industry-leading biosimilars pipeline expanded during the period by four additional in-house assets, namely through sotatercept, polatuzumab vedotin, burosumab and anifrolumab, bringing the total biosimilars pipeline to 36[4] assets
In July, the Company announced that the Agência Nacional de Vigilância Sanitária granted marketing authorisation for Owozy (semaglutide). This marks the first GLP-1 approval for Sandoz, which the Company will commercialise in Brazil in partnership with Adalvo
The European Commission recently granted marketing authorisation for Bysumlog (insulin lispro) and Dazparda (insulin aspart), strengthening Sandoz’s position in diabetes and expanding access to affordable treatment options for patients across Europe

Sandoz recently announced that it has entered into a settlement agreement with the leadership of the consortium of 43 US states and territories to resolve all claims brought by the remaining litigating states and territories against the Company concerning alleged anti-competitive conduct in the US market for generic medicines. Sandoz US has also entered into a settlement agreement with the indirect reseller plaintiffs class. When these two settlements will be completed, Sandoz US will have resolved all claims brought by US federal or state governments against the Company stemming from their investigations of the US generic medicine market from more than a decade ago and all the pending class actions related to this legacy matter. The only remaining anti-trust claims against the Company in the US generic antitrust litigation are those brought by individual plaintiffs who opted out of class settlements. These settlements do not affect full-year 2026 guidance or the Sandoz mid-term outlook
The Company’s greenhouse-gas reduction targets were recently validated by the Science Based Targets initiative, including combined Scope 1 and 2 emissions reductions of 42% by 2030 and 63% by 2035, respectively
Several key leadership appointments were announced in the period to support the Company’s next phase of growth, including Pascal Bouye as President, Generics Manufacturing & Supply, Keren Haruvi assuming responsibility for global M&A in addition to her current role and Simon Goeller as Country President, Germany

FULL-YEAR 2026 GUIDANCE

Sandoz anticipates continued growth in 2026, partly reflecting the expected performance of recently launched biosimilars. This growth, alongside a favourable shift in the mix of sales, further operating efficiencies and cost discipline, is expected to result in core-EBITDA margin expansion in 2026.

As a result, the Company confirms its expectations for the year:

Net sales to grow at CC by a mid-to-high single-digit percentage
Core-EBITDA margin expansion of around 100 basis points

This guidance excludes any impacts of unforeseen events or unconfirmed developments, including the potential imposition of new tariffs emanating from the US government.

No material contribution from any potential launch of generic semaglutide is expected in 2026. Partly reflecting short-term market dynamics in Germany and an outstanding biosimilars performance in North America, overall pricing is now expected to decline by a mid-single-digit percentage in 2026, compared with the previous expectation of a low-to-mid single-digit percentage decline.

CONFERENCE CALL

A conference call and webcast for investors and analysts will begin today at 9:30 CET. Details can be found here, with the accompanying presentation here.

During the second quarter, Cumberland completed a transaction with Apotex Health, the largest Canadian pharmaceutical company, to integrate their branded business. Under the terms of the agreement, Apotex acquired Cumberland’s portfolio of FDA-approved brands and related commercial organization for $100 million in cash at closing, plus an additional $11 million in funding for inventory and transition services.

Following the transaction, Cumberland will transition into a development-stage biopharmaceutical organization focused on advancing differentiated medicines for rare diseases and other areas of significant unmet medical need.

Cumberland returned capital to shareholders through a special cash dividend while retaining sufficient resources to fund its long-term operations, advance its development pipeline and pursue additional strategic opportunities. Cumberland retains its development pipeline of late stage candidates, including four Phase 2 clinical programs, as well as its majority ownership in Cumberland Emerging Technologies.

"The second quarter marked a defining milestone for Cumberland," said A.J. Kazimi, CEO of Cumberland Pharmaceuticals. "With the successful completion of our Strategic Transaction, we have unlocked substantial value for our shareholders, while positioning Cumberland for its next phase as an innovation-focused biopharmaceutical company. We have strengthened our balance sheet, returned capital to shareholders through a special dividend and remain well-capitalized to advance our pipeline of differentiated product candidates designed to address significant unmet medical needs."

RECENT COMPANY DEVELOPMENTS INCLUDE:

Completion of Strategic Transaction with Apotex
On July 1, 2026, Cumberland announced the closing of its agreement with Apotex to integrate the U.S. branded businesses. Under the terms of the agreement, Apotex acquired Cumberland’s portfolio of FDA-approved brands for $100 million in cash consideration, plus an additional $11 million in funding for inventory and transition services.
The transaction was unanimously approved by Cumberland’s Board of Directors, which was followed by approval from Cumberland’s shareholders, with over 99% of the voting shares in favor of the transaction. Cumberland has retained its development programs, as well as its majority ownership in Cumberland Emerging Technologies. This transaction positions Cumberland to operate as an innovation-focused development-stage biopharmaceutical organization.

Board Declares a Special Dividend

Cumberland’s Board of Directors authorized and declared a special cash dividend of $1.50 per share of the company’s common stock. The dividend was paid on July 31, 2026, to the shareholders of record as of July 23, 2026.
Following the closing of the transaction with Apotex, an analysis by Cumberland’s tax advisors, along with refined financial projections, indicated greater net cash from the transaction than originally projected. Therefore, Cumberland’s Board assessed its future cash needs and evaluated possible alternatives for the excess capital. The Board of Directors determined that after the payout of the special dividend, Cumberland will still have significant liquidity and financial flexibility to fund its long-term product development efforts, with additional reserves available to address any new opportunities.

Updated DMD Results Shared at PPMD Conference

In June 2026, Cumberland presented updated results from its Phase 2 FIGHT DMD clinical trial evaluating ifetroban in patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy-associated cardiomyopathy at the annual Parent Project Muscular Dystrophy (PPMD) Conference.

The updated data included new blood biomarker findings directionally consistent with heart muscle protection, with increases in markers of cardiac protection and repair and reductions in markers of heart muscle injury and cell damage with ifetroban treatment. These biomarker results reinforce the previously reported improvements in cardiac function, consistent with ifetroban’s ability to slow the progression of DMD-related heart disease. Together, the findings strengthen the case for developing ifetroban as a therapy targeting cardiomyopathy, the leading cause of death in patients with DMD.

Positive Results in Cancer Metastasis Prevention
In collaboration with Vanderbilt Health, Cumberland announced results from a randomized, placebo-controlled Phase 2 study evaluating ifetroban as a potential therapy to inhibit cancer metastasis in patients with Stage I to III malignant solid tumors at high risk of metastatic recurrence. The study met its primary objective of assessing safety and feasibility. Ifetroban was found to be safe and well-tolerated, and no safety signals were identified in markers of blood clotting function.

Although intentionally not powered for efficacy, the study also compared the percentage of patients with distant metastatic recurrence 12 months after completion of therapy in both groups (10 placebo-treated and 18 ifetroban-treated participants) as a prespecified secondary endpoint.
Metastatic recurrence occurred in 3 of 18 patients (17%) receiving ifetroban, compared with 5 of 10 patients (50%) receiving placebo, a difference that did not reach statistical significance (odds ratio 0.21; p=0.09). There were no deaths from distant metastatic disease among patients receiving ifetroban, compared with 3 of 10 patients (30%) receiving placebo (p=0.037). The findings support the continued clinical development of ifetroban as a potential approach to inhibiting the metastatic process, an area of significant unmet medical need.
FINANCIAL RESULTS:
Net Revenue: During the second quarter of 2026, Cumberland reorganized its income statement to classify the revenues and expenses associated with the Apotex transaction as discontinued operations. The ongoing investment in research and development, supported by the remaining general and administrative expenses, resulted in a loss from continuing operations of $3.1 million for the quarter. With the addition of discontinued operations, the net loss for the quarter was $4.1 million.
Balance Sheet: At June 30, 2026, Cumberland had approximately $63 million in total assets, including $4 million in cash and cash equivalents. Liabilities totaled $46 million and total shareholders’ equity was $17 million on June 30, 2026. Cumberland retired its bank line of credit through a payment of $5.2 million at the end of the second quarter.
