Management Overview

We are a global biopharmaceutical company dedicated to developing and delivering life-changing oral therapies for individuals affected by rare diseases with significant unmet needs. Our product, EKTERLY®(sebetralstat), is a novel, orally delivered, small molecule plasma kallikrein inhibitor for the treatment of acute attacks of hereditary angioedema ("HAE") in adult and pediatric patients aged 12 years and older. EKTERLY (sebetralstat) is the first and only oral, on-demand therapy for HAE. On July 3, 2025, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (the "FDA") approved EKTERLY®(sebetralstat) for the treatment of acute attacks of HAE in adult and pediatric patients aged 12 years and older. Subsequently, in July 2025, the UK's Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency ("MHRA") approved EKTERLY; in September 2025, both the European Commission and the Swiss Agency for Therapeutic Products, Swissmedic, approved EKTERLY for the symptomatic treatment of acute attacks of HAE in adults and adolescents aged 12 years and older; and most recently in October 2025, Australia approved EKTERLY for the symptomatic treatment of acute attacks of HAE in adults and adolescents aged 12 years and older. As of October 2025, the Company has initiated commercial sales in the U.S. and Germany.

The efficacy and safety of EKTERLY (sebetralstat) was established by the results from the phase 3 KONFIDENT clinical trial, published in the New England Journal of Medicine in May 2024. The clinical trial met all primary and key secondary endpoints and demonstrated a favorable safety profile. HAE attacks treated with 600 mg of sebetralstat achieved the primary endpoint of beginning of symptom relief significantly faster than placebo (p=0.0013 ) with a median time to beginning of symptom relief of 1.79 hours (CI 1.33, 2.27) as compared to 6.72 hours with placebo (CI 2.33, >12). Consistent with previous studies, sebetralstat was well-tolerated, with a safety profile similar to placebo. There were no patient withdrawals due to any adverse event and no treatment-related serious adverse events (SAEs) were observed. Treatment-related adverse event rates were 2.2% for 600 mg sebetralstat as compared to 4.8% for placebo. Primary and key secondary endpoints were analyzed in a fixed, hierarchical sequence and adjusted for multiplicity. Key secondary endpoints showed:

Attacks treated with 600mg of sebetralstat achieved a significantly faster time to a reduction in attack severity from baseline, compared to placebo (p=0.0032); and
Attacks treated with 600mg sebetralstat demonstrated a significantly faster time to complete attack resolution as compared to placebo (p<0.0001).

Prior to the approval of EKTERLY, all on-demand treatment options approved in the U.S. for HAE required intravenous or subcutaneous administration, which carries a significant treatment burden. Even with the use of long-term prophylaxis as a preventative therapy, most people living with HAE continue to have unpredictable attacks and require ready access to on-demand medication. We believe that EKTERLY has the potential to fundamentally shift the manner in which HAE is managed, based upon extensive and continuing research conducted with patients, physicians and payers. Sebetralstat is currently under review with regulatory authorities in Japan and Singapore.

Key Updates

On July 3, 2025, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (the "FDA") approved our New Drug Application for EKTERLY, a novel, orally delivered, small molecule plasma kallikrein inhibitor, for the treatment of acute attacks of HAE in adult and pediatric patients aged 12 years and older. EKTERLY is the first and only oral, on-demand therapy for HAE.

In July 2025, the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency ("MHRA") of the UK granted marketing authorization for EKTERLY (sebetralstat). EKTERLY (sebetralstat) also met the requirements of the MHRA Orphan Designation criteria and will be added to the Orphan Register held by the MHRA, allowing it to benefit from up to 10 years of market exclusivity.

Also in July, the Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use of the European Medicines Agency ("EMA") adopted a positive opinion recommending market authorization for sebetralstat. We received the European Commission's ("EC") final decision in September 2025.

Additionally, the Committee for Orphan Medicinal Products of the EMA confirmed maintenance of orphan designation for sebetralstat. The decision to maintain orphan designation was based on a finding of comparable efficacy of sebetralstat to injectable on-demand treatments while offering a major contribution to patient care by reducing the morbidity of HAE attacks. Maintenance of orphan designation provides several important regulatory and financial benefits, including 10 years of market exclusivity in the EU following approval. Sebetralstat is now one of only two HAE medicines to have maintained orphan designation in the EU, highlighting its distinctive position within the HAE treatment landscape.

In June 2025, KalVista Pharmaceuticals Limited granted Pendopharm, a division of Pharmascience Inc., the exclusive rights to manage the regulatory approval process and commercialization of sebetralstat in Canada. Financial terms of the agreement were not disclosed.

Upon FDA approval of EKTERLY, we notified DRI Healthcare Acquisitions LP, an affiliate of DRI Healthcare Trust ("DRI") that we elected to receive the optional payment of $22.0 million as part of the November 2024 royalty transaction. As a result of receiving this one-time payment from DRI, the royalty rate on the first sales tranche steps up from 5.00% to 6.00% on net sales up to and including $500.0 million and the sales-based milestone amount increases from $50.0 million to $57.0 million if annual worldwide net sales of EKTERLY meet or exceed $550.0 million in any calendar year before January 1, 2031.

In September 2025, the EC and the Swiss Agency for Therapeutic Products, Swissmedic, approved EKTERLY for the symptomatic treatment of acute attacks of HAE in adults and adolescents aged 12 years and older. We initiated our first European launch in Germany in October 2025, with availability in Switzerland anticipated in the second half of 2026, pending finalization of reimbursement plans.

Product revenue, net.Product revenue, net increased by $13.7 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared with the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 as a result of our commercial launch of EKTERLY in the United States in July 2025, following the FDA approval of EKTERLY on July 3, 2025.

Cost of revenue. Cost of revenue increased by $1.2 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared with the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and primarily consisted of manufacturing costs and costs associated with the distribution of EKTERLY following the FDA approval.

Research and Development Expenses.Research and development expenses decreased by $6.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 compared with the three months ended September 30, 2024 due to decreases in spending on sebetralstat of $4.6 million and other R&D activities of $2.7 million offset by an increase in personnel costs. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared with the nine months ended September 30, 2024, spending decreased by $29.0 million due to decreases in spending on sebetralstat of $15.2 million, personnel costs of $6.2 million, and other R&D activities of $7.5 million. The impact of exchange rates on research and development expenses was immaterial for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to the same periods in the prior fiscal year, which is reflected in the figures above.

Research and development expenses by major programs or categories were as follows for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 (in thousands):

Other R&D costs decreased primarily due to recognizing expense associated with sebetralstat pre-commercial awareness within Selling, general and administrative expenses. We anticipate these expenses will remain approximately at current levels as the KONFIDENT-S and KONFIDENT-KID trials are ongoing and we continue preclinical research including the oral Factor XIIa inhibitor program.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses.Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $21.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 compared with the three months ended September 30, 2024 primarily due to increases in personnel costs of $13.2 million, professional fees of $1.7 million, commercial expenses of $0.7 million, and other administrative expenses of $6.1 million. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $62.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared with the nine months ended September 30, 2024 primarily due to increases in personnel costs of $33.9 million, commercial expenses of $8.0 million, medical awareness expenses of $6.1 million, professional fees of $4.9 million, and other administrative expenses of $9.6 million. We anticipate these expenses will continue at or above current levels to support the commercialization of EKTERLY.

Other (Expense) Income.Other (expense) income decreased by $5.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 compared with the three months ended September 30, 2024 primarily due to an increase in interest expense and unfavorable changes in foreign currency exchange rates of $4.8 million and $2.0 million, respectively offset by the change in fair value of the derivative liability of $0.6 million. Other income decreased by $9.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared with the nine months ended September 30, 2024 primarily due to an increase in interest expense, change in fair value of the derivative liability, and decrease in the R&D tax credit of $10.7 million, $1.2 million, and $1.1 million, respectively, offset by the change in foreign currency exchange rate gains, interest income, and realized gains on marketable securities of $1.5 million, $0.9 million, and $0.8 million, respectively.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The three months ended September 30, 2025 is the first period in which we have generated revenue from product sales, following the FDA approval of EKTERLY on July 3, 2025. We have funded operations primarily through the issuance of capital stock, pre-funded warrants, convertible debt and royalty financing. Our working capital, primarily cash and marketable securities, is anticipated to fund our operations for at least the next twelve months from the date these unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements are issued.

Sources of Liquidity

In February 2024, we entered into an underwriting agreement with Jefferies LLC, Leerink Partners LLC, Stifel, Nicolaus & Company, Incorporated, and Cantor Fitzgerald & Co., as the representatives of several underwriters to sell an aggregate of 7,016,312 shares of our common stock at a price of $15.25 per share and pre-funded warrants to purchase up to 3,483,688 shares of our common stock at a price of $15.249 per pre-funded warrant. The net proceeds from the offering, after deducting expenses, were approximately $150.1 million. As of September 30, 2025, no pre-funded warrants from the offering have been exercised.

In July 2024, we filed a registration statement on Form S-3 (the "Registration Statement") with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), pursuant to which we may offer and sell securities having an aggregate public offering price of up to $300 million.

In November 2024, we entered into an underwriting agreement with Jefferies LLC, BofA Securities, Inc., TD Securities (USA) LLC and Stifel Nicolaus & Company, Incorporated, as the representatives of several underwriters to sell an aggregate of 5,500,000 shares of our common stock at an offering price of $10.00 per share (the "November 2024 Offering") pursuant to the Registration Statement. The net proceeds from the November 2024 Offering, after deducting expenses, were approximately $51.3 million.

Also in November 2024, we entered into a securities purchase agreement with DRI to sell an aggregate of 500,000 shares of our common stock at a price of $10.00 per share in a private placement. The net proceeds from the private placement, after deducting placement agent fees and other expenses, were approximately $4.7 million.

Also, in November 2024, we entered into a royalty purchase agreement with DRI to monetize a portion of our future sebetralstat worldwide net sales. Under the terms of the agreement, we received an upfront payment of $100.0 million in exchange for tiered royalty payments on worldwide net sales of sebetralstat, which is recorded as the Royalty Liability in our consolidated balance sheets. In July 2025, we received a one-time cash payment of $22.0 million as a result of obtaining FDA approval of sebetralstat before October 1, 2025.

In April 2025, we entered into a License, Supply and Distribution Agreement (the "Kaken Agreement") with Kaken Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. ("Kaken") pursuant to which we have licensed exclusive commercialization rights in Japan to Kaken for the Licensed Product (as defined under the Kaken Agreement) in exchange for a non-refundable upfront payment of $11.0 million, potential regulatory and sales milestone payments totaling approximately $13.0 million and effective royalty payments in the mid-twenties percentage that shall be payable for each unit of revenue of Licensed Product (as defined in the Kaken Agreement) that we supply, which reflect a percentage of the Japanese National Health Insurance price of the Licensed Product. On June 20, 2025, we received the upfront payment of $11.0 million.

In July 2025, we entered into a sales agreement with TD Securities (USA) LLC ("TD Cowen") pursuant to which we may offer and sell, from time to time at our sole discretion, shares of our common stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $100.0 million (the "ATM Shares"), under the prospectus supplement, dated July 10, 2025, to the Registration Statement, through TD Cowen as sales agent. During the three months ended September 30, 2025, we did not offer or sell any ATM Shares pursuant to the Registration Statement.

In September 2025, we entered into an indenture agreement with U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as trustee to issue $143.8 million aggregate principal amount of convertible senior notes.

Cash provided by financing activities during the same period in the prior year was $153.6 million from the issuance of common stock.

Contractual Obligations and Commitments

We enter into contracts in the normal course of business with contract research organizations and clinical trial sites for the conduct of clinical trials, preclinical and clinical studies, professional consultants and other vendors for clinical supply manufacturing or

other services. These contracts generally provide for termination on notice, and therefore are cancelable contracts and not included in the table of contractual obligations and commitments in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2025, filed with the SEC on July 10, 2025. We are party to several operating leases for office and laboratory space as of September 30, 2025.

Critical Accounting Estimates

Our management's discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our financial statements, which we have prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP"). The preparation of our financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of our financial statements and the reported revenue and expenses during the reported periods. We evaluate these estimates and judgments on an ongoing basis. We base our estimates on historical experience, known trends and events, contractual milestones and various other factors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. See Note 2 to the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for a description of our significant accounting policies and assumptions used in applying those policies. The accounting policies and estimates that we deem to be critical are discussed in more detail in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2025, filed with the SEC on July 10, 2025. Other than as described below, there have been no material changes to our critical accounting estimates in the nine months ended September 30, 2025.

Revenue Recognition

To determine revenue recognition for arrangements within the scope of ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, we perform the following five steps: (1) identify the contracts with a customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when or as we satisfy a performance obligation.

Net revenue from sales of EKTERLY is recorded at net selling price (transaction price), which includes reserves for variable consideration such as estimated government rebates, patient assistance programs, prompt payment discounts, distribution fees, and product returns. These estimated reserves, representing our best estimates of the amount of consideration to which we expect to be entitled based on the terms of the applicable contracts and statutory requirements. The related reserves are recorded as reductions of accounts receivable when no payments are required of us or a current liability when payment is expected. Actual amounts of consideration may differ from our estimates. If actual results vary from estimates, these estimates are adjusted, which would affect net product revenue and earnings in the period such variances become known.

Rebates. We estimate rebates we will provide to governmental programs, including Medicaid and Medicare, and deduct these estimated amounts from total gross product revenues at the time the revenues are recognized, resulting in a reduction of product revenue and the establishment of a current liability. Rebate reserves are calculated based on the terms of applicable government statutory requirements and estimated product utilization by eligible patients.

Patient assistance. We provide financial assistance programs such as co-pay assistance to eligible commercially insured patients to help reduce out-of-pocket costs. The calculation is based on claims processed during a given period. Reserves for these programs are recorded in the same period in which the related revenue is recognized, resulting in a reduction of product revenue and establishment of a current liability.

Prompt payment discounts. We estimate credits to be granted to specialty pharmacies that remit payment within established incentive periods. These amounts are recorded as reductions of product revenue and accounts receivable at the time the related revenue is recognized.

Distribution fees. Distribution fees relate to payments made to customers in the distribution channel that provide inventory management, data reporting and product distribution services. These fees are generally recorded as a reduction of product revenue and a current liability at the time related revenues are recognized. If the services provided by the customer are distinct from the sale of product, the payments are instead classified as selling, general and administrative expenses.

Product returns. Reserves for estimated product returns are established in the period that the related revenue is recognized and recorded as reductions of both product revenue and accounts receivable.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

See Note 2 to the unaudited interim condensed financial statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for a description of recent accounting pronouncements, including the expected dates of adoption and expected effects on results of operations and financial condition, if known.
