DETAILS OF THE FINANCIAL RESULTS OF THE FIRST THREE MONTHS OF 2024

As a consequence of the transfer of our Jyseleca® business to Alfasigma, the revenues and costs related to Jyseleca® for the first quarter of 2024 are presented separately from the results of our continuing operations in the line ‘Net profit from discontinued operations, net of tax' in our consolidated income statement. The comparative first quarter of 2023 has been restated accordingly for the presentation of the results related to the Jyseleca® business.

Results from our continuing operations

Total operating loss from continuing operations for the three months ended 31 March 2024 was €33.1 million, compared to an operating loss of €14.2 million for the three months ended 31 March 2023.

Total net revenues for the three months ended 31 March 2024 amounted to €62.4 million, compared to €58.6 million for the three months ended 31 March 2023. The revenue recognition related to the exclusive access rights granted to Gilead for our drug discovery platform amounted to €57.6 million for the first three months of both 2024 and 2023. Our deferred income balance at 31 March 2024 includes €1.2 billion allocated to our drug discovery platform that is recognized linearly over the remaining period of our 10-year collaboration.
Cost of sales for the three months ended 31 March 2024 amounted to €2.5 million and related to the supply of Jyseleca® to Alfasigma under the transition agreement. The related revenues are booked in total net revenues.
R&D expenses in the first three months of 2024 amounted to €71.6 million, compared to €52.5 million for the first three months of 2023. This increase was primarily explained by higher costs for CAR-T and small molecule programs in oncology.
G&A and S&M expenses amounted to €30.8 million in the first three months of 2024, compared to €27.1 million in the first three months of 2023. This increase was primarily due to an increase in legal and professional fees, mainly related to business development activities.
Other operating income amounted to €9.4 million in the first three months of 2024, compared to €6.8 million for the same period last year. This increase is mainly due to €2.2 million of recharges for transition services to Alfasigma for the months of February and March 2024.

Net financial income in the first three months of 2024 amounted to €56.0 million, compared to net financial income of €2.8 million for the first three months of 2023.

Fair value adjustments and net currency exchange gains in the first three months of 2024 amounted to €30.6 million, compared to fair value adjustments and net currency exchange losses of €9.7 million for the first three months of 2023, and were primarily attributable to €12.4 million of unrealized currency exchange gains on our cash and cash equivalents and current financial investments at amortized cost in U.S. dollars, and to €17.6 million of positive changes in fair value of current financial investments.
Net other financial income in the first three months of 2024 amounted to €25.4 million, compared to net other financial income of €12.5 million for the first three months of 2023, and was primarily attributable to €25.2 million of interest income, which increased significantly due to the increase in interest rates.

Net profit from continuing operations for the first three months of 2024 was €23.5 million, compared to a net loss from continuing operations of €11.2 million for the first three months of 2023.

ⁱ The operational cash burn (or operational cash flow if this liquidity measure is positive) is equal to the increase or decrease in our cash and cash equivalents (excluding the effect of exchange rate differences on cash and cash equivalents), minus:

• the net proceeds, if any, from share capital and share premium increases included in the net cash flows generated from/used in (-) financing activities

• the net proceeds or cash used, if any, related to the acquisitions or disposals of businesses; the acquisition of financial assets held at fair value through profit or loss; the movement in restricted cash and movement in current financial investments, if any, the cash advances and loans given to third parties, if any, included in the net cash flows generated from/used in (-) investing activities

• the cash used for other liabilities related to the acquisition of businesses, if any, included in the net cash flows generated from/used in (-) operating activities.

This alternative liquidity measure is in our view an important metric for a biotech company in the development stage. The operational cash burn for the first three months of 2024 amounted to €125.2 million and can be reconciled to our cash flow statement by considering the decrease in cash and cash equivalents of €93.9 million, adjusted by (i) the net sale of current financial investments amounting to €69.5 million, (ii) the cash-out related to the sale of subsidiaries of €1.3 million, and (iii) the acquisition of financial assets held at fair value through profit or loss of €36.9 million.
