Item 2.02

Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

In connection with the previously announced proposed acquisition of Amicus Therapeutics, Inc. (“Amicus”) by BioMarin Pharmaceutical Inc. (“Parent”), Amicus provided the following preliminary unaudited financial information to Parent, which included such information in its preliminary offering memorandum, dated January 26, 2026, relating to Parent’s proposed private placement of senior notes to fund the acquisition of Amicus: As of December 31, 2025, Amicus estimates that it had approximately $294 million in cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities. For the year ended December 31, 2025, Amicus also estimates that its total net product revenues amounted to approximately $634 million, including approximately $522 million of revenues derived from Galafold® and $112 million derived from Pombiliti® + Opfolda®.

These estimates of Amicus’ cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities, total net product revenues, product revenues for Galafold® and product revenues for Pombiliti® + Opfolda® are unaudited, preliminary, and subject to Amicus’ normal quarterly and annual accounting and financial statement closing procedures. Amicus has not yet completed a full accounting closing for any period subsequent to September 30, 2025. These preliminary estimates of Amicus’ cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities, total net product revenues, product revenues for Galafold® and product revenues for Pombiliti® + Opfolda® have been prepared by, and are the responsibility of, Amicus’ management. In addition, Ernst & Young LLP, Amicus’ independent registered public accounting firm, has not audited, reviewed, examined, compiled, nor applied agreed-upon procedures with respect to such preliminary estimates. Ernst & Young LLP does not express an opinion or any other form of assurance with respect thereto. It is possible that Amicus may identify items that require Amicus to make adjustments to the preliminary estimates set forth above. These preliminary estimates do not present all information necessary for an understanding of Amicus’ results of operations for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, and should not be viewed as a substitute for full financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. There can be no assurance that actual results will not differ from the preliminary estimates presented herein. Accordingly, you should not place undue reliance on these preliminary and unaudited estimates. These preliminary unaudited estimates should be read together with the sections titled “Risk Factors” and “Forward-Looking Statements,” and under similar headings of Amicus’ filings with the U.S Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

Item 7.01

Regulation FD.

The information reported under Item 2.02 is hereby incorporated by reference herein.

No Offer or Solicitation

This Current Report on Form 8-K (this “Current Report”) is for information purposes only and is not intended to and does not constitute, or form part of, an offer, invitation or the solicitation of an offer or invitation to purchase, otherwise acquire, subscribe for, sell or otherwise dispose of any securities, or the solicitation of any vote or approval in any jurisdiction, pursuant to the proposed Transaction or otherwise, nor shall there be any sale, issuance or transfer of securities in any jurisdiction in contravention of applicable law.

Participants in the Solicitation

Amicus and certain of its directors and executive officers may be deemed to be participants in the solicitation of proxies in respect of the proposed Transaction. Information regarding Amicus’s directors and executive officers, including a description of their direct interests, by security holdings or otherwise, is contained in (i) Amicus’ preliminary Proxy Statement for a special meeting of shareholders in connection with the Transaction, which was filed with the SEC on January 21, 2026, including the sections therein entitled “Interests of Amicus’ Directors and Executive Officers in the Merger” and “Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management”, (ii) Amicus’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, which was filed with the SEC on February 19, 2025, including the sections therein entitled “Directors, Executive Officers, and Corporate Governance,” “Executive Compensation” and “Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management and Related Stockholder Matters”, (iii) Amicus’s proxy statement for its 2025 annual meeting of stockholders, which was filed with the SEC on April 24, 2025, including the sections therein entitled “Proposal 1 – Election of Class Directors,” “Compensation Discussion and Analysis,” “Compensation and Equity Tables,” and “Share Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management,” and (iv) other documents subsequently filed with the SEC from time to time, including the definitive Proxy Statement to be filed by Amicus in connection with the proposed Transaction and the special meeting of stockholders of Amicus. To the extent holdings of Amicus’ securities by its directors or executive officers have changed since the amounts set forth in the filings described in the foregoing, such changes have been or will be reflected on Initial Statements of Beneficial Ownership on Form 3 or Statements of Beneficial Ownership on Form 4 filed with the SEC. Amicus stockholders may obtain additional information regarding the direct and indirect interests of the participants in the solicitation of proxies in connection with the proposed Transaction, including the interests of Amicus directors and executive officers in the Transaction, which may be different than those of Amicus stockholders generally, by reading the definitive Proxy Statement and any other relevant documents that are filed or will be filed with the SEC relating to the Transaction. These documents (when available) may be obtained free of charge from the website maintained by the SEC at www.sec.gov and Amicus’s website at https://ir.amicusrx.com/financial-information/sec-filings.

Forward Looking Statements

Forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks, uncertainties, or other factors that are difficult to predict and could cause actual events or results to differ materially from those indicated in any such statements due to a number of risks and uncertainties. Those risks and uncertainties that could cause the actual results to differ from expectations contemplated by forward-looking statements include, among other things: consummating the Transaction and financing in the anticipated timeframe, if at all; the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstance that could give rise to the termination of the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated December 19, 2025, among Amicus, Parent and Lynx Merger Sub 1, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of Parent ; uncertainties as to the ability to obtain shareholder approval; the possibility that competing acquisition proposals will be made; the possibility that various closing conditions for the Transaction may not be satisfied or waived, including that a governmental entity may prohibit, delay or refuse to grant approval for the consummation of the Transaction (or only grant approval subject to adverse conditions or limitations); the effects of the Transaction on relationships with employees, customers, suppliers, other business partners or governmental entities, including the risk that the Transaction adversely affects employee retention; the difficulty of predicting the timing or outcome of regulatory approvals or actions; the impact of competitive products and pricing; the risk that Parent may not realize the potential benefits of the Transaction, including the possibility that the expected benefits from the proposed Transaction will not be realized or will not be realized within the expected time period and that Parent and Amicus will not be integrated successfully or that such integration may be more difficult, time-consuming or costly than expected; the risks related to disruption of management’s time from ongoing business operations as a result of the Transaction; risks that the Transaction disrupts current plans and operations; obtaining and maintaining adequate coverage and reimbursement for Amicus’ products; changes in Amicus’ business during the period between announcement and closing of the Transaction; any legal proceedings and/or regulatory actions that may be instituted related to the Transaction; other business effects, including the effects of industry, economic or political conditions outside of the companies’ control; costs and expenses related to the Transaction; actual or contingent liabilities; the effects of the Transaction (or the announcement thereof) on Amicus’ and Parent’s stock price and/or operating results; and the other risks and uncertainties discussed in Amicus’s periodic reports filed with the SEC, including Amicus’ quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and annual reports on Form 10-K. These risks, as well as other risks associated with the Transaction, are more fully discussed in the definitive Proxy Statement to be filed with the SEC in connection with the Transaction. The list of factors presented in the foregoing is not complete and you should not place undue reliance on these statements. Actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements are based on information currently available to Amicus and Parent, and, except as required by applicable law, Amicus and Parent disclaim any obligation to update the information contained in this Current Report as new information becomes available. All forward-looking statements in this Current Report or made in connection therewith in writing or orally are qualified in their entirety by this cautionary statement.
