Current report

On April 2, 2026, we announced activation of NewYork-Presbyterian/Columbia University Irving Medical Center in New York City as another qualified treatment center for the administration of ZEVASKYN®.

Current report

On May 11, 2026, we announced activation of Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia as the newest qualified treatment center for the administration of ZEVASKYN®. This represents the sixth available qualified treatment center for the administration of ZEVASKYN®.

Current report

Building on our proven end-to-end competency in engineered cell therapy, we will focus our development efforts on the development of ABO-701, a recently licensed radically novel engineered T-cell therapy, targeting Prostate-Specific Membrane Antigen (“PSMA”) to treat prostate cancer. PSMA is a validated target for advanced prostate cancer, which is a leading cause of cancer mortality, with more than 30,000 deaths annually in the U.S. despite multiple approved therapies and recent advances in the field.

Current report

ABO-701 is an autologous engineered T-cell product that carries a Synthetic Immune Receptor (“SIR-T™”) designed to overcome the limitations of CAR and TCR approaches. The SIR-T™ platform underlying ABO-701 was developed in the laboratory of Preet M. Chaudhary, M.D., Ph.D., Professor of Medicine and Chief of Jane Ann Nohl Division of Hematology and Center for the Study of Blood Diseases at University of Southern California (“USC”) Keck School of Medicine and Director of USC Blood and Marrow Transplant and Cell Therapy Program. The patents covering the SIR-T™ platform are owned by Angeles Therapeutics, Inc. In pre-clinical studies, ABO-701 has demonstrated durable tumor control in mouse models and modest levels of cytokine release – a profile that has been elusive to other engineered cell therapies in the solid tumors.

Current report

We expect to file an Investigational New Drug (“IND”) application and commence first-in-human studies with ABO-701 in the second half of 2027 while engaging a contract development and manufacturing organization for supply readiness in the meantime. This development plan and timing allow us to maintain our focus on commercializing ZEVASKYN®.

Current report

As part of our portfolio optimization, we have deprioritized our in-house ophthalmology programs.

Current report

Product revenue, net, resulting from the sale of ZEVASKYN®, for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was $8.7 million. There was no product revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2025 as the approval by the FDA for ZEVASKYN® did not occur until April of 2025.

Current report

Other income, net was $50,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to $141,000 in the same period of 2025. The decrease was primarily a result of realized losses on foreign currency related to various vendors that we pay in foreign currency during the three months ended March 31, 2026.

Current report

Net cash used in financing activities was $2.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, comprised of $2.2 million in payments on our long-term debt.

Previous report

Our development portfolio also features adeno-associated virus (“AAV”) based gene therapies designed to treat ophthalmic diseases with high unmet need using novel AIM™ capsids. Abeona’s novel, next-generation AAV capsids are being evaluated to improve tropism profiles for a variety of devastating diseases.

Previous report

Our preclinical programs are investigating the use of novel AAV capsids in AAV-based therapies for serious genetic eye diseases, including ABO-504 for Stargardt disease, ABO-503 for X-linked retinoschisis (“XLRS”) and ABO-505 for autosomal dominant optic atrophy (“ADOA”). We completed pre-Investigational New Drug Application (“pre-IND”) meetings with the FDA regarding the preclinical development plans and regulatory requirements to support first-in-human trials.

Previous report

During the third quarter, we manufactured a full batch of drug product following patient biopsy collection in August 2025. Although we produced bonafide drug product, it could not be released because a rapid sterility assay, mandated by the FDA as a release assay during the final stage of the Biologics License Application (BLA) review, initially yielded a false positive result for sterility. We immediately implemented a temporary pause on collecting patient biopsies and worked diligently to optimize the release assay to ensure reliable results and avoid any unnecessary future lot rejections. Upon completion of assay optimization and the necessary regulatory submission for its implementation, we resumed biopsy collection in November 2025.

Previous report

On October 8, 2025, we announced the activation of the newest QTC for ZEVASKYN®at Children’s Hospital Colorado. As a result, RDEB patients will be able to access ZEVASKYN®at Lucile Packard Children’s Hospital Stanford, Lurie Children’s Hospital of Chicago and Children’s Hospital Colorado.

Previous report

On October 13, 2025, we announced that ABO-503 for XLRS was selected by the FDA for Rare Disease Endpoint Advancement Pilot (“RDEA”) Program. The RDEA program facilitates the development and timely approval of rare disease therapies by supporting the use of novel efficacy endpoints in clinical trials. As part of the RDEA program, Abeona will have opportunities for enhanced communication and collaboration with the FDA, including frequent advice and regular ad-hoc conversations to accelerate the development and validation of product-specific novel efficacy endpoints for Abeona’s XLRS program.

Previous report

On October 20, 2025, we announced the appointment of James A. Gow, MD, MBA, MS, MHCM, as the Senior Vice President, Head of Clinical Development & Medical Affairs, effective immediately. Dr. Gow has over 20 years of industry experience in clinical development and medical affairs and is a recognized expert in gene therapy, especially in ophthalmology.

Previous report

On October 30, 2025, we announced that the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (“CMS”) has established a permanent Healthcare Common Procedure Coding System (“HCPCS”) J-code for ZEVASKYN®. The new J-code for ZEVASKYN®, J3389 (Topical administration, prademagene zamikeracel, per treatment) becomes effective on January 1, 2026.

Previous report

The change in fair value of warrant and derivative liabilities was a loss of $15.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024. We issued stock purchase warrants that are required to be classified as a liability and valued at fair market value at each reporting period. In addition, the conversion feature in our loan agreement is required to be classified as a liability and valued at fair market value at each reporting period. The loss in the fair value of warrant and derivative liabilities was primarily due to the increase in our stock price over the quarter offset by the reduced term of each of the warrants and derivative liabilities.

Previous report

Other income, which consists primarily of sublease income, was $0.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to $0.1 million in the same period of 2024.

Previous report

We recorded a current income tax benefit of $15.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025. We did not record an income tax expense for the three months ended September 30, 2024 as we generated sufficient tax losses, after consideration of discrete items. The current income tax benefit for the three months ended September 30, 2025 was by the favorable impact of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, enacted on July 4, 2025. The legislation restored immediate expensing of domestic R&D expenditures, reinstated 100% bonus depreciation, and provided more favorable rules for determining the limitation on business interest expense, which collectively reduced our taxable income and resulted in a current tax benefit for the three months ended September 30, 2025.

Previous report

Comparison of Nine Months Ended September 30, 2025 and September 30, 2024

Previous report

License and other revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 was $0.4 million as compared to nil for the same period of 2024. The revenue in 2025 of $0.4 million consists of revenue resulting from a third party exercising its option to license certain of our AAV capsids.

Previous report

Cost of sales during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 primarily includes costs associated with the August 2025 production of a full batch of ZEVASKYN®that could not be released due to technical issues that arose in implementing the rapid sterility lot release assay, mandated by the FDA during BLA review. There was no cost of sales in the same period of 2024, as ZEVASKYN®was approved by the FDA in April 2025.

Previous report

Total royalty expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 was $0.1 million as compared to nil for the same period of 2024. The increase in expense was due to royalties owed to the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill resulting from the milestones due from the exercise of an option by a third party to license certain of our AAV capsids.

Previous report

The change in fair value of warrant and derivative liabilities was a loss of $7.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. In 2024, we issued stock purchase warrants that are required to be classified as a liability and valued at fair market value at each reporting period. In addition, the conversion feature in our loan agreement was required to be classified as a liability through September 30, 2024 and was valued at fair market value at each reporting period during the nine-month period ending September 30, 2024. The change in the fair value of warrant and derivative liabilities was primarily due to the increase in our stock price as of September 30, 2024 compared to December 31, 2023.

Previous report

In May 2025, we sold our PRV awarded to us following the FDA approval of ZEVASKYN®. We received gross proceeds of $155.0 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and recognized a gain from the PRV sale of $152.4 million, net of transaction costs of $2.6 million, as it did not have a carrying value at the time of sale.
