Current report
•On July 17, 2025, the European Commission (“EC”) granted marketing authorization for AUCATZYL in adult patients (age 26 and older) with r/r B-ALL. Evaluation of potential pricing and feasibility of market entry opportunities in certain EU countries is ongoing; however, at this time, launch in Germany is on hold and we do not anticipate any EU sales of AUCATZYL in 2025 and 2026.

Obe-cel data in r/r B-ALL
Current report
•We presented updated long-term data from the FELIX study in adult patients with r/r B-ALL in an oral presentation at the 2025 European Hematology Association (“EHA”) Congress in June. For patients with a response, the updated median duration of response is now 42.5 months. At the updated median follow up of 32.8 months, 38.4% of responders were in ongoing remission without consolidative stem cell therapy or other therapies (versus the previously reported 40% at a median follow-up of 21.5 months). The 24-month probability of Event Free Survival was 43%, and the Overall Survival was 46%, with a further consolidating long-term plateau observed. No new safety signals or Grade ≥3 secondary malignancies were observed at the extended follow-up. These results suggest that obe-cel may be a durable treatment option for some patients with r/r B-ALL.

As of March 31, 2025, we had cash and cash equivalents of $95.8 million and marketable securities of $420.8 million. Based on our current clinical development and commercialization plans, we believe our existing cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities will be sufficient to fund our current and planned operating expenses and capital expenditure requirements through at least the next twelve months from the date of issuance of our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report. This forecast of cash resources is forward-looking information that involves risks and uncertainties, and the actual amount of our revenues and expenses, which we have based on assumptions that may prove to be wrong and could prove to be significantly higher than we currently anticipate, could vary materially and adversely as a result of a number of factors. Management does not know whether additional financing will be on terms favorable or acceptable to us when needed, if at all. If adequate additional funds are not available when required, or if we are unsuccessful in entering into partnership agreements for further development of our product candidates, management may need to curtail its development efforts and planned operations.

Out of six patients in the cohort, three patients had complete renal response, all by month three. Complement normalized in all patients by month one. Rash, alopecia and mucosal ulcers resolved by month three and arthritis resolved by month one in all patients. Data show high peak expansion and deep B cell aplasia consistent with known obe-cel characteristics in oncology indications. No dose limiting toxicities (“DLTs”) or immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome (“ICANS”) were observed in the trial to date. Grade one cytokine release syndrome (“CRS”) was observed in three out of six patients. Hypertension, a typical sign of advanced lupus nephritis, pre-existed in three patients. On study, five of six patients experienced a transient hypertension, including Grade 3, well managed by anti-hypertensive agents.

•On April 1, 2025, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (“CMS”) included AUCATZYL in their published Healthcare Common Procedure Coding System (“HCPCS”) coding determinations and Hospital Outpatient Prospective Payment System (“OPPS”) payment rates, formalizing reimbursement for patients on government programs. The CMS policy splits the therapeutic dose of AUCATZYL into two administrations for coding and billing purposes. We are working with the treatment centers on implementing the coding and payment policy from CMS and we are assessing any potential impact on the timing revenue recognition.

On April 1, 2025, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (“CMS”) included AUCATZYL in their published Healthcare Common Procedure Coding System (“HCPCS”) coding determinations and Hospital Outpatient Prospective Payment System (“OPPS”) payment rates, formalizing reimbursement for patients on government programs. The CMS policy splits the therapeutic dose of AUCATZYL into two administrations for coding and billing purposes. As a result, effective from the second quarter of 2025, we recognize 50% of revenue upon administration of the first dose and the remaining 50% of revenue upon administration of the second dose, when the customers’ ability to either cancel the order or request a refund has ceased for each respective dose.
Previous wording
We account for our product revenues pursuant to the provisions of ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”). We have one performance obligation which is satisfied upon the notification by the customer of administration of treatment. However, the performance obligation is constrained by the customer's right of return and/or credit eligibility which expires when a patient is dosed.. Therefore, we recognize revenue from product sales when the customers’ ability to either cancel the order or request a refund has ceased, which is when the product is administered to the patient. Product revenues, net of gross-to-net deductions, are recognized only to the extent that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative product revenue recognized is not probable of occurring when the uncertainty associated with gross-to- net deductions is subsequently resolved. Product revenues are recognized net of estimated rebates and chargebacks, patient travel assistance and patient co-pay assistance deductions. These deductions to product revenue are referred to as gross-to-net deductions and are estimated and recorded in the period in which the related product revenue occur.

Cost of sales for a newly launched product does not include the full cost of manufacturing until the initial pre-launch raw materials inventory is depleted. Thus, the cost of sales as a percentage of net sales of AUCATZYL for the three months ended March 31, 2025 was affected by use of the initial pre-launch raw materials inventory, which was previously expensed as research and development expense, and is referred to as zero cost inventories. We estimate our cost of sales as a percentage of net product revenue and will continue to be positively impacted as we sell product which includes some raw material inventory that was previously expensed prior to FDA approval.

Current report — wording carried from elsewhere
We account for our revenues pursuant to the provisions of ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”). We have identified a single performance obligation which is satisfied upon delivery of the product to the authorized treatment centers. However, the performance obligation is constrained by the right of return/credit eligibility. We recognize revenue from product sales upon administration to the patient, when the customers’ ability to either cancel the order or request a refund has ceased. Revenue from product sales that are invoiced and constrained is recorded as deferred revenue on the balance sheet.

Current report — wording carried from elsewhere
During the six months ended June 30, 2025, we generated product revenue, net amounting to $29.9 million, from the sale of AUCATZYL in the United States. We did not generate any product revenue in the six months ended June 30, 2024, as AUCATZYL was approved by the FDA for commercial use on November 8, 2024.
Current report — wording carried from elsewhere
In the six months ended June 30, 2025, we recognized cost of sales of $42.4 million, primarily consisting of salaries and other employment related costs, including share-based compensation expense, for personnel involved in AUCATZYL manufacturing activities, as well as outsourced professional services. These costs also included direct production costs for commercial product manufacturing and allocated facility costs such as maintenance, depreciation, utilities and lease expenses. We did not recognize any cost of sales in the six months ended June 30, 2024, as AUCATZYL was not approved by the FDA for commercial use until November 8, 2024.
Current report — wording carried from elsewhere
Certain manufacturing expenses incurred prior to AUCATZYL receiving the FDA approval were classified as research and development expenses, resulting in zero cost inventory. If cost of sales included previously expensed inventories, the total cost of sales with these manufacturing costs included for the six months ended June 30, 2025, would have increased by approximately $4.3 million.
