Quarterly Report for Quarter Ending March 31, 2026 (Form 10-Q)

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, or this Quarterly Report, and our audited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the final prospectus for our initial public offering, or IPO, dated April 30, 2026, and filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, pursuant to Rule 424(b)(4) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, on May 1, 2026. Some of the information contained in this discussion and analysis or set forth elsewhere in this Quarterly Report, including information with respect to our plans and strategy for our business, includes forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. As a result of many factors, including those factors set forth in the "Risk Factors" section of this Quarterly Report, our actual results could differ materially from the results described in, or implied by, the forward-looking statements contained in the following discussion and analysis.

Overview

We are a clinical-stage biotechnology company developing therapies that reimagine the treatment of blood coagulation disorders to sustain life and human resilience. Our mission is to build the leading coagulation company by discovering, developing, and commercializing innovative therapies for the millions of patients worldwide suffering from serious bleeding and thrombotic diseases, including Glanzmann thrombasthenia, Factor VII deficiency, Von Willebrand Disease and other conditions of abnormal bleeding, all of which can cause significant life-long burden to patients. We are building a comprehensive franchise of investigational therapeutics spanning from Phase 2 clinical development through discovery research. Our assets address critical gaps in the treatment of coagulation disorders, with multiple value-driving clinical data events anticipated in 2026, 2027 and beyond.

Our lead asset, sutacimig, is a bispecific antibody currently in Phase 1/2 clinical development for the prophylactic treatment of Glanzmann thrombasthenia and Phase 2 clinical development for the prophylactic treatment of Factor VII deficiency. Our second clinical-stage asset, HMB-002, is a monovalent antibody in Phase 1/2 clinical development for the subcutaneous prophylactic treatment of Von Willebrand Disease. We are also advancing multiple preclinical and discovery-stage assets.

Since our inception in 2020, we have devoted substantially all of our resources to drug discovery, the development of our lead product candidates, sutacimig and HMB-002, along with several preclinical programs focusing on coagulation disorders. In addition to our research and development efforts, our operations to date have been limited to organizing and staffing our company, business planning, raising capital, securing intellectual property rights, in-licensing technology, discovering product candidates, undertaking preclinical studies, conducting clinical trials and providing general and administrative support for these operations.

We have no approved products, and we have not generated any revenue from product sales. On May 4, 2026, we closed our initial public offering ("IPO") of 19,262,500 shares of common stock, which included the exercise in full by the underwriters of their option to purchase additional shares of common stock. The net proceeds from the IPO were approximately $317.2 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses payable by us. Prior to our IPO, we financed our operations primarily through private placements of convertible preference shares and issuance of convertible debt. Since our inception through May 21, 2026, we have received aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $692.7 million from such transactions.

We have incurred significant operating losses since inception. Our net losses were $22.7 million and $15.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. As of March 31, 2026, we had an accumulated deficit of $204.5 million. We expect to continue to incur significant operating expenses and net losses for the foreseeable future.

We anticipate that our expenses will increase substantially if and as we:

continue to advance the clinical development of our product candidates, including our ongoing Phase 1/2 clinical trial of sutacimig in patients with Glanzmann thrombasthenia, our ongoing Phase 2 clinical trial of sutacimig in patients with Factor VII deficiency, and our ongoing Phase 1/2 clinical trial of HMB-002 in patients with Von Willebrand Disease, as well as any other product candidates that we may develop;

advance our clinical-stage product candidates into later-stage clinical trials, including our planned Phase 3 clinical trial of sutacimig in patients with Glanzmann thrombasthenia, which will be required in order to seek marketing approval of our product candidates, and which we expect will be substantially more expensive than our earlier-stage clinical trials;

continue to advance our research and preclinical activities and seek to discover and develop additional product candidates;

establish and scale-up manufacturing processes and capabilities, or arrange for a third party to do so on our behalf, to support our clinical trials of our product candidates and commercialization of any of our product candidates for which we obtain marketing approval;

seek regulatory and marketing approvals for any of our product candidates that successfully complete clinical trials;

ultimately establish a sales, marketing, medical affairs and distribution infrastructure to commercialize any products for which we may obtain marketing approval;

continue to develop, maintain, expand and protect our intellectual property portfolio (including intellectual property obtained through license agreements) and provide reimbursement of third-party expenses related to our patent portfolio;

acquire or in-license products, product candidates or technologies;

establish or maintain collaborations;

maintain, expand, enforce, defend and protect our intellectual property;

hire additional clinical, medical, regulatory, quality control, manufacturing and other scientific and technical personnel;

add operational, financial, clinical, quality and management information systems and personnel, including personnel to support our product development and planned future commercialization efforts of our product candidates and our operations as a public company;

incur additional audit, legal, regulatory, tax and other expenses with being a public company; and

make any milestone, royalty, or other payments to Novo Nordisk A/S, or Novo Nordisk, under our license agreement with Novo Nordisk, or the Novo Nordisk Agreement, and to Genmab A/S, or Genmab, under our license agreement with Genmab, or the Genmab Agreement, and under any additional future collaboration or license agreements that we may enter into.

In addition, our expenses will further increase if, among other things:

we are required by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, the European Medicines Agency, or other regulatory authorities to perform clinical trials or preclinical studies that are in addition to, or different than, those expected;

there are any delays in completing our clinical trials or preclinical studies or the development of any of our product candidates; or

there are any third-party challenges to our intellectual property or we need to defend against any intellectual property-related claim.

We will not generate revenue from product sales unless and until we successfully complete the clinical development or future clinical development of, and obtain regulatory approval for, one or more of our current or future product candidates, which may not occur for several years, if at all. In addition, if we obtain marketing approval for our product candidates and any other product candidates we may identify and pursue, we expect to incur significant commercialization expenses related to product manufacturing, sales, marketing and distribution.

Our net losses may fluctuate significantly from period to period, depending on the timing of our current and potential future clinical trials and expenditures related to our research and developmental activities. Furthermore, we expect to incur additional costs associated with operating as a public company. Accordingly, we will need to obtain substantial additional funding to support our continuing operations and pursue our growth strategy. Until such a time when we can generate significant revenue from product sales, if ever, we expect to finance our operations through a combination of equity offerings, debt financings, royalty financings, collaborations, strategic alliances, and marketing, distribution or licensing arrangements. We may be unable to raise additional funds or enter into such other agreements or arrangements when needed, on favorable terms, or at all. Our failure to raise capital or enter into such agreements or arrangements as, and when needed, could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition, including potentially requiring us to delay, limit, reduce or eliminate product development or future commercialization efforts, or grant rights to develop and market current or future development product candidates that we would otherwise prefer to develop and market ourselves.

As there are numerous risks and uncertainties associated with product development, we are unable to accurately predict the timing or amount of increased expenses or when or if we will be able to achieve or maintain profitability. Even if we are able to generate product sales, we may not become profitable. If we fail to become profitable or are unable to sustain profitability on a continuing basis, then we may be unable to continue our operations at planned levels and be forced to reduce or terminate our operations.

As of March 31, 2026, we had cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities of $163.5 million. We believe that our existing cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities, together with net proceeds from the IPO of approximately $317.2 million, will enable us to fund our operating expenses and capital expenditure requirements into 2029. For more information, see the section titled "Liquidity and Capital Resources" below.

Corporate Reorganization

On March 30, 2026, we completed a corporate reorganization pursuant to which the shareholders of Hemab ApS exchanged their shares in Hemab ApS for the same number, class and series of newly issued shares, on a one to one basis, in the newly incorporated Delaware company, Hemab Therapeutics Holdings, Inc. and, as a result, Hemab ApS became a wholly owned subsidiary of Hemab Therapeutics Holdings, Inc. The newly issued shares of Hemab Therapeutics Holdings, Inc. have substantially identical rights to the exchanged shares of Hemab ApS. As a result of the exchange, Hemab Therapeutics Holdings, Inc. became the sole shareholder of Hemab ApS, and the prior shareholders of Hemab ApS solely hold shares of Hemab Therapeutics Holdings, Inc. Hemab Therapeutics Holdings, Inc. had nominal assets and liabilities and did not conduct any operations prior to the corporate reorganization other than its incorporation. Upon completion of the corporate reorganization, the historical consolidated financial statements of Hemab ApS became the historical consolidated financial statements of Hemab Therapeutics Holdings, Inc.

In connection with the corporate reorganization, each outstanding warrant to subscribe for the purchase of ordinary shares of Hemab ApS was assumed by Hemab Therapeutics Holdings, Inc. and converted into a warrant to purchase the same number of shares of common stock of Hemab Therapeutics Holdings, Inc. Each new warrant otherwise has and is subject to the same terms and conditions as were in effect immediately prior to the assumption and conversion, except that any warrant exercise price that had been denominated in DKK prior to the corporate reorganization was converted into an exercise price in U.S. dollars at the exchange rate as in effect at the close of business on the business day prior to the corporate reorganization. No warrants of Hemab ApS are outstanding following the assumption and conversion.

Additionally, promptly following the corporate reorganization, on April 1, 2026, Hemab ApS transferred its shares of Hemab Therapeutics Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Hemab ApS, to Hemab Therapeutics Holdings, Inc. in exchange for the issuance of a promissory note and, as a result, Hemab Therapeutics Inc. became a wholly owned subsidiary of Hemab Therapeutics Holdings, Inc.

Components of Results of Operations

Revenue

We have not generated any revenues from the sale of products to date and do not expect to generate any revenue from the sale of products until we successfully complete development and obtain regulatory approval for one or more of our product candidates, which may not occur for several years, if at all. If our development efforts for our product candidates are successful and result in regulatory approval or we successfully enter into collaboration or license agreements with third parties, we may generate revenues in the future from product sales, or payments from such collaboration or license agreements, or a combination thereof.

Operating Expenses

Our operating expenses consist of research and development expenses and general and administrative expenses.

Research and Development Expenses

Research and development expenses consist primarily of external and internal costs incurred for our research and development activities, including our product candidate discovery and development efforts. These expenses include:

external costs, including expenses incurred under arrangements with third-parties, such as contract manufacturing organizations, or CMOs, contract research organizations, or CROs, providers of sponsored research, consultants and our scientific advisors;

laboratory and vendor costs related to the execution of preclinical studies and planned and ongoing clinical trials;

costs related to compliance with regulatory requirements;

direct costs of conducting internal research and development for our internal preclinical programs;

acquisition of intellectual property and related future payments should certain development and regulatory milestones be achieved;

personnel-related costs, including salaries, bonuses, benefits and equity-based compensation for employees engaged in research and development functions;

expenses incurred for the procurement of materials, laboratory supplies and non-capital equipment used in the research and development process; and

depreciation, amortization and other direct and allocated expenses, including rent, insurance, maintenance of facilities and other operating costs, incurred as a result of our research and development activities.

We expense research and development costs as incurred. Non-refundable advance payments that we make for goods or services to be received in the future for use in research and development activities are recorded as prepaid expenses. The prepaid amounts are expensed as the related goods are delivered or the services are performed.

We record accruals for estimated ongoing research costs and receive updated estimates of costs and amounts owed on a monthly basis from our third-party service providers. When evaluating the adequacy of the prepaid expenses and accrued liabilities, we analyze progress of the studies, including the phase or completion of events, invoices received and contracted cost estimates from its third-party service providers. Estimates are made in determining the balances at the end of any reporting period.

A significant portion of our research and development costs have been, and will continue to be, external costs. External costs, which are specific to a product candidate, are tracked on a product candidate-by-product candidate basis upon our designation of a preclinical asset as a product candidate. Because we can use certain resources across several product candidates, personnel-related expenses and indirect or shared operating costs incurred for our research and development activities are not recorded or allocated on a product candidate-by-product candidate basis.

We have historically met the requirements to receive a tax credit in Denmark of up to 5.5 million Danish Kroner, or DKK, per year for losses resulting from research and development costs of up to DKK 25 million per year. The tax credit is presented as a reduction to research and development expense in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

We anticipate that our research and development expenses will increase substantially for the foreseeable future in connection with our ongoing clinical trials and our planned clinical development activities. However, we cannot reasonably estimate the costs or timing of the efforts that will be necessary to complete the development of any of our product candidates due to the numerous risks and uncertainties associated with their development, including the uncertainty of:

the scope, progress, costs and results of our current and future preclinical studies and clinical trials for our product candidates;

the number of clinical trials required for regulatory approval of our current or future product candidates;

whether we partner our programs with collaborators for later-stage clinical development or commercialization;

the number and development requirements of any other product candidates we may identify and develop;

the costs, timing and outcome of regulatory review of our product candidates and any other product candidates we may identify and develop;

the costs of obtaining clinical and commercial supplies of our product candidates and any other product candidates we may identify and develop;

our ability to successfully commercialize our product candidates and any other product candidates we may identify and develop;

the time and cost necessary to respond to technological and market developments;

the extent to which we may acquire or in-license other product candidates and technologies;

our ability to establish and maintain strategic collaborations, licensing or other arrangements and the financial terms of such arrangements;

milestone payments and other collaboration-based payments, if any;

our ability to attract, hire and retain qualified personnel; and

the effect of macroeconomic trends including inflation, foreign exchange rate, interest rates and tariffs.

Any changes in the outcome of any of these variables with respect to the development of our programs and product candidates or any future programs and product candidates that we may develop could result in a significant change in the costs and timing associated with the development of that program or product candidate. We may never succeed in achieving regulatory approval for any of our product candidates or any future product candidates that we may identify and develop.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses consist primarily of personnel-related costs, including salaries, bonuses, benefits and equity-based compensation expenses for employees in executive, accounting and finance, business development, human resources, legal and other administrative functions. Other significant general and administrative expenses include facility related costs including depreciation, legal fees relating to corporate and intellectual property matters and other corporate matters, professional fees for accounting, audit and tax services, consulting fees and insurance costs.

We anticipate that our general and administrative expenses will increase as we increase our headcount to support our research and development activities and the potential commercialization of our product candidates, if approved. Additionally, these increases will likely include increased costs related to the hiring of additional personnel, among other expenses. We also expect to incur increased expenses associated with being a public company, including increased costs of accounting, audit, legal, regulatory and tax-related services associated with maintaining compliance with Nasdaq listing requirements and the requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC, director and officer insurance costs, and investor and public relations costs. We also expect to incur additional intellectual property-related expenses as we file patent applications to protect innovations arising from our research and development activities.

Other Income (Expense), Net

Other income (expense), net primarily consists of interest income generated from interest on cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities, realized and unrealized gains and losses on foreign currency transactions and interest expense associated with our finance lease for certain laboratory equipment.

Income Taxes

We are subject to taxation in the United States and Denmark. As of December 31, 2025, we had $170.9 million of net operating loss carryforwards that can be carried forward indefinitely according to Danish Tax Authority regulations. These loss carryforwards are available to reduce future taxable income, if any.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases, and operating losses and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted statutory tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the jurisdictions and years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

Based on the level of historical operating results and projections for the taxable income for the future, we have determined that it is more likely than not that our net deferred tax assets will not be realized. Accordingly, we have recorded a full valuation allowance to reduce our net deferred tax assets.

We recognize tax benefits from uncertain tax positions only if, based on the technical merits of the position, it is more likely than not that the tax positions will be sustained on examination by the tax authority. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such positions are measured based on the largest amount that is more than 50% likely to be realized upon ultimate settlement. We recognize interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits within the provision for taxes in our statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

We operate in Denmark and the United States and may be subject to audits from various tax authorities. Management's judgment is required in determining our provision for income taxes, our deferred tax assets and liabilities, liabilities for uncertain tax positions, and any valuation allowance recorded against our net deferred tax assets. We plan to monitor the extent to which our deferred tax assets may be realized and adjust the valuation allowance accordingly.

Total research and development expense

$ 19,461 $ 14,101 $ 5,360

Total research and development expenses were $19.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $14.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The $5.4 million increase in research and development expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was primarily due to an increase of $2.3 million in personnel-related costs and an increase of $2.2 million in discovery and other costs related to adding consultancy resources for medical and clinical operations.

External research and development expenses related to sutacimig for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 were $5.8 million and $6.0 million, respectively. The decrease of $0.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was primarily driven by reduced Chemistry, Manufacturing, and Controls, or CMC, costs.

External research and development expenses related to HMB-002 for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 were $3.5 million and $4.6 million, respectively. The decrease of $1.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was primarily driven by start-up costs related to the Phase 1/2 clinical trial of HMB-002 during the three months ended March 31, 2025 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2026.

Other external research and development expenses increased by $1.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025, primarily driven by continued CMC activities related to our preclinical programs and other increased preclinical development costs.

Personnel-related expenses and equity-based compensation increased by $2.3 million and $0.4 million in the three months ended March 31, 2026, respectively, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025, primarily driven by a significant increase in average headcount across clinical development, CMC, and clinical operations related to the pursuit of identifying and developing product candidates.

Discovery and other costs increased by $2.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025, primarily driven by an increase in discovery activities and consultancy expense related to clinical operations, clinical research, and regulatory research.

General and Administrative Expenses

Total general and administrative expenses were $4.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $2.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The $1.7 million increase was primarily due to an increase in personnel-related costs and equity-based compensation of $0.3 million and $0.5 million, respectively, driven by an increase in average headcount as well as an increase in professional service fees of $0.8 million.

Other Income (Expense), Net

Other income (expense), net for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 were net income of $1.0 million and $1.1 million, respectively. The $0.1 million decrease was primarily related to foreign currency losses recognized due to unfavorable movements between the currencies which we regularly transact in, including DKK, Euros, British Pounds and our functional currency, the U.S. Dollar. This was offset by an increase in interest income of $0.7 million due to an increase in accretion income related to our available-for-sale debt securities.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Sources of Liquidity

Since our inception, we have incurred significant operating losses. To date, we have financed our operations primarily through private placements of convertible preference shares and issuance of convertible debt and, most recently, from the sale of common stock in our IPO in May 2026. Through May 21, 2026, we have received aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $692.7 million from such transactions.

Operating Activities

Our cash flows from operating activities are significantly influenced by our use of cash for operating expenses and working capital requirements to support our business. We have historically experienced negative cash flows from operating activities as we invested in the research and development of our product candidates and programs, including preclinical studies, clinical trials, manufacturing and manufacturing process development. The cash used in operating activities resulted primarily from our net losses adjusted for non-cash charges, which are generally due to equity-based compensation, depreciation and amortization and non-cash lease expense, non-cash interest income, as well as changes in components of operating assets and liabilities, which are generally due to increased expenses and timing of vendor payments.

During the three months ended March 31, 2026, net cash used in operating activities was $21.6 million, due to a net loss of $22.7 million, which was partially offset by changes in operating assets and liabilities that provided $0.4 million in cash and net non-cash expenses of $0.7 million.

During the three months ended March 31, 2025, net cash used in operating activities was $13.0 million, due to a net loss of  $15.9 million, which was partially offset by changes in operating assets and liabilities that provided $2.0 million in cash and net non-cash expenses of $0.9 million.

Investing Activities

During the three months ended March 31, 2026, net cash used in investing activities was $15.8 million, which primarily consisted of purchases of marketable securities and property and equipment.

During the three months ended March 31, 2025, net cash used in investing activities was $6.0 million, which primarily consisted of purchases of marketable securities, which were partially offset by maturities of marketable securities.

Financing Activities

During the three months ended March 31, 2026, net cash used in financing activities was $0.1 million, related to principal payments on finance lease obligations and payment of deferred offering costs associated with the IPO.

During the three months ended March 31, 2025, net cash used in financing activities was $0.1 million, related to principal payments on finance lease obligations.

Funding Requirements

We expect our expenses to increase substantially in connection with our ongoing and planned activities, particularly as we commence our planned Phase 3 clinical trial of sutacimig in patients with Glanzmann thrombasthenia and continue our ongoing Phase 1/2 clinical trial of sutacimig in patients with Glanzmann thrombasthenia, Phase 2 clinical trial of sutacimig in patients with Factor VII deficiency and Phase 1/2 trial of HMB-002 in patients with Von Willebrand Disease, continue research and development and initiate additional clinical trials of, and seek marketing approval for, these and other product candidates. In addition, if we obtain marketing approval for our product candidates and any other product candidates we may identify and pursue, we expect to incur significant commercialization expenses related to product manufacturing, sales, marketing and distribution. Furthermore, we expect to incur additional costs associated with operating as a public company. As a result, we expect to continue to incur significant operating expenses and net losses for the foreseeable future.

As of March 31, 2026, we had total cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities of $163.5 million. We believe that our existing cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities, together with net proceeds from the IPO of approximately $317.2 million, will enable us to fund our operating expenses and capital expenditure requirements into 2029. We have based this estimate on assumptions that may prove to be wrong, and we could exhaust our available capital resources sooner than we expect.

Because of the numerous risks and uncertainties associated with product development, and because the extent to which we may enter into collaborations with third-parties for the development of our product candidates is unknown, we may incorrectly estimate the timing and amounts of increased capital outlays and operating expenses associated with completing the research and development of our product candidates. Our funding requirements and timing and amount of our operating expenditures will depend on many factors. We anticipate that our expenses will increase substantially if and as we:

continue to advance the clinical development of our product candidates, including our ongoing Phase 1/2 clinical trial of sutacimig in patients with Glanzmann thrombasthenia, our ongoing Phase 2 clinical trial of sutacimig in patients with Factor VII deficiency, and our ongoing Phase 1/2 clinical trial of HMB-002 in patients with Von Willebrand Disease, as well as any other product candidates that we may develop;

advance our clinical-stage product candidates into later-stage clinical trials, including our planned Phase 3 clinical trial of sutacimig in patients with Glanzmann thrombasthenia, which will be required in order to seek marketing approval of our product candidates and which we expect will be substantially more expensive than our earlier-stage clinical trials;

continue to advance our research and preclinical activities and seek to discover and develop additional product candidates;

establish and scale-up manufacturing processes and capabilities, or arrange for a third party to do so on our behalf, to support our clinical trials of our product candidates and commercialization of any of our product candidates for which we obtain marketing approval;

seek regulatory and marketing approvals for any of our product candidates that successfully complete clinical trials;

ultimately establish a sales, marketing, medical affairs and distribution infrastructure to commercialize any products for which we may obtain marketing approval;

continue to develop, maintain, expand and protect our intellectual property portfolio (including intellectual property obtained through license agreements) and provide reimbursement of third-party expenses related to our patent portfolio;

acquire or in-license products, product candidates or technologies;

establish or maintain collaborations;

maintain, expand, enforce, defend and protect our intellectual property;

hire additional clinical, medical, regulatory, quality control, manufacturing and other scientific and technical personnel;

add operational, financial, clinical, quality and management information systems and personnel, including personnel to support our product development and planned future commercialization efforts of our product candidates and our operations as a public company;

incur additional audit, legal, regulatory, tax and other expenses with being a public company; and

make any milestone, royalty, or other payments under the Novo Nordisk Agreement, under the Genmab Agreement, and under any additional future collaboration or license agreements that we may enter into.

In addition, our expenses will further increase if, among other things:

we are required by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, the European Medicines Agency, or other regulatory authorities to perform clinical trials or preclinical studies that are in addition to, or different than, those expected;

there are any delays in completing our clinical trials or preclinical studies or the development of any of our product candidates; or

there are any third-party challenges to our intellectual property or we need to defend against any intellectual property-related claim.

Identifying potential product candidates and conducting preclinical studies and clinical trials is a time consuming, expensive and uncertain process that takes years to complete, and we may never generate the necessary data or results required to obtain marketing approval and achieve product sales. In addition, our product candidates, if approved, may not achieve commercial success. Our commercial revenues, if any, will be derived from sales of products that we do not expect to be commercially available for many years, if ever. Accordingly, we will need to obtain substantial additional funds to achieve our business objectives.

Our expectation with respect to our ability to fund current planned operations is based on estimates that are subject to risks and uncertainties. Our operating plan may change as a result of many factors currently unknown to management and there can be no assurance that the current operating plan will be achieved in the time frame anticipated by us, and we may need to seek additional funds sooner than planned. If we are unable to raise this capital when needed, we may be forced to delay, limit, reduce or eliminate one or more of our research and development programs or other operations.

Adequate additional funds may not be available to us on acceptable terms, or at all. We do not have any source of committed capital or external funds. To the extent that we raise additional capital through the sale of equity or convertible debt securities, your ownership interest will be diluted, and the terms of these securities may include liquidation or other preferences that adversely affect your rights as stockholder. Additional debt financing and preferred equity financing, if available, may involve agreements that include covenants limiting or restricting our ability to take specific actions, such as incurring debt, selling or licensing our assets, making capital expenditures or declaring dividends or encumbering our assets to secure future indebtedness. If we raise additional funds through equity offerings, debt financings, royalty financings, collaborations, strategic alliances and marketing, distribution or licensing arrangements, we may have to relinquish valuable rights to our technologies, future revenue streams, research programs or development product candidates or grant licenses on terms that may not be favorable to us. If we are unable to raise additional funds when needed or on terms acceptable to us, we may be required to delay, limit, reduce or terminate our product development programs or future commercialization efforts or grant rights to develop and market product candidates that we would otherwise prefer to develop and market ourselves.

For additional information on risks associated with our substantial capital requirements, please see "Risk Factors - We will need substantial additional funding. If we are unable to raise capital on acceptable terms when needed, or at all, we could be forced to delay, reduce or eliminate our product development programs or commercialization efforts."

Contractual Obligations and Commitments

Leases

In January 2023, we entered into a finance lease for certain laboratory equipment in Copenhagen, Denmark. The laboratory equipment was classified as a finance lease due to the existence of a bargain purchase option in the lease agreement. In connection with this lease, we recorded a finance lease right-of-use asset and finance lease liability of approximately $0.5 million.

In September 2023, we entered into a non-cancelable operating lease for office space in Cambridge, Massachusetts. The lease requires us to pay annual base rent of approximately $0.4 million, which is subject to a 2% annual increase over the term of the lease. The lease expires in October 2026 and contains a two-year renewal option.

In March 2024, we entered into a non-cancelable operating sublease for office and laboratory space in Copenhagen, Denmark. The lease requires us to pay annual base rent of approximately $0.3 million, which is subject to a 3% annual increase over the term of the lease. The lease expires in February 2029 and contains a one-year renewal option.

For additional information on our future commitments relating to our leasing obligations, see Note 9, "Leases" of the "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements" in the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025 and notes thereto, included in our final prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(4) under the Securities Act with the SEC on May 1, 2026.

Purchase and Other Obligations

We enter into contracts in the normal course of business with CROs, CMOs and other third-parties for preclinical research studies, clinical trials and testing and manufacturing services. These contracts typically do not contain minimum purchase commitments and are cancellable by us upon written notice. Payments due upon cancellation generally consist of payments for services provided or expenses incurred up to the date of cancellation, including non-cancelable obligations of our service providers and, in some cases, wind-down costs. For further information regarding certain of our license agreements and amounts that could become payable in the future under those agreements, please see Note 8 in our condensed consolidated financial statements appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report.

License Agreements

Below is a summary of the key terms for certain of our license agreements.

License Agreement with Novo Nordisk

In November 2019, we entered into a license agreement with Novo Nordisk A/S, or Novo Nordisk, pursuant to which Novo Nordisk granted us an exclusive (even as to Novo Nordisk), worldwide and sublicensable license under specified patent rights, and a non-exclusive, worldwide and sublicensable license under specified know-how, to research, develop, make, have made, use, offer for sale, sell, import, export or otherwise exploit, or transfer possession of or title in, products, or Novo Licensed Products, containing bispecific IgG antibodies targeting TLT-1 and Factor VII, including sutacimig, for the treatment of bleeding conditions, including hemophilia. We refer to this agreement as the Novo Nordisk Agreement. Under the terms of the Novo Nordisk Agreement, we have agreed to use commercially reasonable efforts to develop and commercialize a Novo Licensed Product.

We are obligated to pay to Novo Nordisk a one-time DKK 40 million milestone payment upon achievement by a Novo Licensed Product of a specified regulatory milestone event, and we are also obligated to pay Novo Nordisk tiered royalties, in the low single-digit percentages, on aggregate annual net sales of all Novo Licensed Products, on a Novo Licensed Product-by-Novo Licensed Product and country-by-country basis, until the later of the expiration of the last valid claim in the licensed patents under the Novo Nordisk Agreement covering such Novo Licensed Product in such country and ten years following the first commercial sale of such Novo Licensed Product in such country. We currently expect that all of the licensed patents under the Novo Nordisk Agreement will expire by 2040, potentially extending to 2045 with patent term extension. To date, we have not made any payments to Novo Nordisk under the Novo Nordisk Agreement. Under the Novo Nordisk Agreement, we initially granted to Novo Nordisk a right of first negotiation, following a specified clinical event and during a specified period of time, to obtain a license back from us to exploit Novo Licensed Products if we determined to engage with a third party with respect to a license of any Novo Licensed Products. However, Novo Nordisk's right of first negotiation under the Novo Nordisk Agreement has expired.

The Novo Nordisk Agreement will continue in force until it is terminated. On expiration of each royalty term, our license becomes royalty-free, perpetual, and irrevocable with respect to the applicable Novo Licensed Product in the applicable country. Either party may terminate the Novo Nordisk Agreement for the other party's uncured material breach or insolvency. We may terminate the Novo Nordisk Agreement for any reason upon 90 days' written notice to Novo Nordisk. In the event that Novo Nordisk regains control of the exclusive right to exploit the Novo Licensed Product, the Novo Nordisk Agreement will automatically terminate.

License Agreement with Genmab

In April 2020, we entered into a license agreement with Genmab A/S, or Genmab, pursuant to which Genmab granted us an exclusive (even as to Genmab and its affiliates), worldwide and sublicensable license under platform technology patent rights and know-how relating to Genmab's proprietary DuoBody® platform to research, develop, make, have made, use, manufacture, import, export and commercialize products, comprising bispecific IgG antibodies targeting TLT-1 and Factor VII, or TLT-1/Factor VII Antibody Products, including sutacimig, for the treatment of bleeding conditions, including hemophilia. Under the terms of the Genmab Agreement, we have agreed to use commercially reasonable efforts to develop, manufacture, obtain regulatory approval for and commercialize TLT-1/Factor VII Antibody Products worldwide.

Under the Genmab Agreement, we are obligated to pay Genmab a percentage of all net profit (i.e., revenue and other proceeds less specified direct costs we incur to conduct research, development, manufacture and commercialization of TLT-1/Factor VII Antibody Products) we or our affiliates receive with respect to any TLT-1/Factor VII Antibody Products, including (1) net profit from commercial sales of TLT-1/Factor VII Antibody Products and any revenue from third parties, other than Novo Nordisk, in respect of a sublicense or assignment with respect to TLT-1/Factor VII Antibody Products, including assignment fees, sublicensing fees, upfront and milestone fees, royalties and other consideration, whether in kind or cash, and (2) the net profit allocated to TLT-1/Factor VII Antibody Products that we or our affiliates receive if we undergo a change of control (other than an acquisition by Novo Nordisk). The percentage of net profit we owe with respect to each TLT-1/Factor VII Antibody Product is in the low teens from the effective date of the Genmab Agreement until the first commercial sale of such TLT-1/Factor VII Antibody Product. From and after the first commercial sale of a TLT-1/Factor VII Antibody Product, the percentage of net profit we owe with respect to such TLT-1/Factor VII Antibody Product is in the high single digits in all territories in which we commercialize such TLT-1/Factor VII Antibody Product and in the mid-teens in all territories in which a third party, other than Novo Nordisk, commercializes such TLT-1/Factor VII Antibody Product. We are obligated to pay such percentage of net profit on a country-by-country and TLT-1/Factor VII Antibody Product-by-TLT-1/Factor VII Antibody Product basis until the later of the expiration of the last-to-expire of the platform technology patent rights licensed under the Genmab Agreement covering such TLT-1/Factor VII Antibody Product in such country and twelve years following the first commercial sale of such TLT-1/Factor VII Antibody Product in such country, which we refer to as the net profit share term. Following the expiration of the last-to-expire of the platform technology patent rights licensed under the Genmab Agreement covering a given TLT-1/Factor VII Antibody Product in a given country, the percentage of net profit that we are obligated to pay with respect to sales of such TLT-1/Factor VII

Antibody Product in such country will be reduced by a specified percentage for the remainder of the net profit share term for such TLT-1/Factor VII Antibody Product in such country. We currently expect that all of the platform technology patent rights licensed under the Genmab Agreement will expire by 2032, though this date may be extended if, for example, Genmab files additional patents covering its platform technology. To date, we have not made any payments to Genmab under the Genmab Agreement.

In the event we seek to sell, license or otherwise dispose of our rights to TLT-1/Factor VII Antibody Products, including through a change of control to any third party other than Novo Nordisk, we are obligated to provide Genmab the right to participate in any bidding process as a bona fide potential acquirer of such rights.

Unless earlier terminated, the Genmab Agreement will expire, on a TLT-1/Factor VII Antibody Product-by-TLT-1/Factor VII Antibody Product and country-by-country basis, upon the expiration of the last net profit share term for such TLT-1/Factor VII Antibody Product in such country. On expiration of each net profit share term, our license becomes perpetual, fully paid-up and non-exclusive with respect to the applicable TLT-1/Factor VII Antibody Product in the applicable country. Either party may terminate the Genmab Agreement for the other party's uncured material breach or insolvency or in certain events of force majeure. Genmab may terminate the Genmab Agreement if we or our affiliates or sublicensees challenge any of the platform technology patent rights licensed under the Genmab Agreement. We may terminate the Genmab Agreement for any reason upon 120 days written notice to Genmab. If Novo Nordisk obtains from us the exclusive right to exploit TLT-1/Factor VII Antibody Products, including upon termination of the Novo Nordisk Agreement, then the Genmab Agreement will terminate in all territories in which Novo Nordisk obtains such exclusive rights.

Critical Accounting Estimates

Our management's discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, or GAAP. The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, costs and expenses and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements, as well as the reported expenses incurred during the reporting periods. Our estimates are based on our historical experience and on various other factors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

There have been no significant changes from critical accounting estimates described under "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Critical Accounting Estimates" included in our final prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(4) under the Securities Act with the SEC on May 1, 2026.

Emerging Growth Company and Smaller Reporting Company Status

We are an "emerging growth company" as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act, or the JOBS Act. As a result, we are able to take advantage of certain reduced reporting requirements that are otherwise applicable to public companies, including delaying auditor attestation of internal control over financial reporting, providing only two years of audited financial statements and related management's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations and reduced executive compensation disclosures.

We may remain an emerging growth company until December 31, 2031. However, if certain events occurs prior to the end of such period, including if we become a "large accelerated filer" under SEC rules, our annual gross revenue exceeds $1.235 billion, or we issue more than $1.0 billion of non-convertible debt in any three-year period, we will cease to be an emerging growth company prior to such date.

We have elected to take advantage of certain of the reduced disclosure obligations available to emerging growth companies and may elect to take advantage of other reduced reporting requirements in future filings. As a result, the information that we provide to our stockholders may be different than what you might receive from other public reporting companies in which you hold equity interests. In addition, the JOBS Act provides that an "emerging growth company" can take advantage of an extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards. We have elected not to "opt out" of such extended transition period, which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, we can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard and may do so until such time that we either (1) irrevocably elect to "opt out" of such extended transition period or (2) no longer qualify as an emerging growth company.

We are also a "smaller reporting company" as defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. We may continue to be a smaller reporting company even after we are no longer an "emerging growth company". We may take advantage of certain of the scaled disclosures available to smaller reporting companies and will be able to take advantage of these scaled disclosures for so long as our common stock held by non-affiliates is less than $250.0 million measured on the last business day of our second fiscal quarter, or our annual revenue is less than $100.0 million during the most recently completed fiscal year and our common stock held by non-affiliates is less than $700.0 million measured on the last business day of our second fiscal quarter.
