Moderna, Inc.

1. Description of the Business

Moderna, Inc. (collectively, with its consolidated subsidiaries, any of Moderna, we, us, our or the Company) is a biotechnology company advancing a new class of medicines made of messenger RNA (mRNA). mRNA medicines are designed to direct the body’s cells to produce intracellular, membrane or secreted proteins that have a therapeutic or preventive benefit with the potential to address a broad spectrum of diseases. Our platform builds on continuous advances in basic and applied mRNA science, delivery technology and manufacturing, providing us the capability to pursue in parallel a robust pipeline of new development candidates. We are developing medicines across infectious disease vaccines, oncology therapeutics and rare disease therapeutics.

Since our founding in 2010, we have transformed from a research-stage company advancing programs in the field of mRNA to a commercial enterprise with a diverse clinical portfolio of vaccines and therapeutics across several modalities, a broad intellectual property portfolio and integrated manufacturing capabilities that allow for rapid clinical and commercial production at scale. We currently have three commercial products—Spikevax® and mNEXSPIKE®, our COVID vaccines, and mRESVIA®, our vaccine against respiratory syncytial virus (RSV). Additionally, we also have a diverse development pipeline of 25 development candidates across our 35 development programs currently in clinical studies.
