Annex A (Pursuant to Part IV, Question 3)

The Company anticipates reporting a net loss of approximately $27.3 million for 2025, compared to a net loss of approximately $38.5 million for 2024. The anticipated improvement is driven by a gain of approximately $4.6 million from the fair value remeasurement of contingent consideration and a decrease of approximately $3.3 million from reduced research and development, both primarily driven by the Company’s decision to cease development of KPI-012 and its MSC-S platform. In addition, the Company anticipates a gain of approximately $5.8 million on extinguishment of debt in connection with the settlement of the Company’s loan agreement during the fourth quarter of 2025, and approximately $5.1 million primarily related to settlements of certain executive compensation and other liabilities and a lease settlement. These improvements were partially offset by an increase of approximately $5.6 million in general and administrative expenses, primarily due to higher professional fees and employee-related costs associated with the Company’s decision to cease development of KPI-012 and its MSC-S platform, The Company’s anticipated results remain subject to the completion of customary year-end closing procedures and audit, and actual results may differ from the preliminary expectations described above.

The Company believes that the results contained herein, are materially correct, however, certain amounts in the financial statements could be revised when the Company files its Annual Report on Form 10-K.
