ITEM 1.    BUSINESS

Business Overview

We are a people-first global biopharmaceutical company striving to deliver first- and best-in-class therapies to transform the lives of patients facing serious diseases. Our commercial portfolio and clinical pipeline are organized around three therapeutic areas: Respiratory, Immunology & Inflammation, and Neuro & Other Rare. To complement our internal research and development, we also actively evaluate in-licensing and acquisition opportunities for commercial products, product candidates and technologies.

Our two commercial products, ARIKAYCE® and BRINSUPRI®, are both part of the Respiratory therapeutic area. ARIKAYCE is approved in the US as ARIKAYCE (amikacin liposome inhalation suspension), in Europe as ARIKAYCE Liposomal 590 mg Nebuliser Dispersion and in Japan as ARIKAYCE inhalation 590mg (amikacin sulfate inhalation drug product). ARIKAYCE received accelerated approval in the US in September 2018 for the treatment of MAC lung disease as part of a combination antibacterial drug regimen for adult patients with limited or no alternative treatment options in a refractory setting. In October 2020, the European Commission (EC) approved ARIKAYCE Liposomal for the treatment of nontuberculous mycobacterial (NTM) lung infections caused by MAC in adults with limited treatment options who do not have cystic fibrosis (CF). In March 2021, Japan's Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare (MHLW) approved ARIKAYCE for the treatment of patients with NTM lung disease caused by MAC who did not sufficiently respond to prior treatment with a multidrug regimen. NTM lung disease caused by MAC (which we refer to as MAC lung disease) is a rare and often chronic infection that can cause irreversible lung damage and can be fatal.

BRINSUPRI (brensocatib 25 mg and 10 mg tablets), an oral, once-daily treatment for non-cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis (referred to as bronchiectasis or NCFB) in patients 12 years of age and older, was approved in the US in August 2025. In November 2025, the EC approved BRINSUPRI (brensocatib 25 mg tablets) for the treatment of NCFB in patients 12 years of age and older with two or more exacerbations in the prior 12 months. Bronchiectasis is a serious, chronic lung disease in which the bronchi become permanently dilated due to a cycle of infection, inflammation, and lung tissue damage.

Our Respiratory therapeutic area also includes the clinical-stage programs TPIP and INS1148. TPIP is an inhaled dry powder formulation of the treprostinil prodrug treprostinil palmitil which may offer a differentiated product profile for pulmonary hypertension associated with interstitial lung disease (PH-ILD), pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), progressive pulmonary fibrosis (PPF), and idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). INS1148 is a monoclonal antibody targeting a specific isoform of Stem Cell Factor, called Stem Cell Factor 248 (SCF248).

The clinical-stage program in our Inflammation & Immunology therapeutic area is brensocatib, a small molecule, oral, reversible inhibitor of dipeptidyl peptidase 1 (DPP1), for the treatment of patients with hidradenitis suppurativa (HS).

The clinical-stage programs in our Neuro & Other Rare therapeutic area are INS1201, an intrathecally delivered gene therapy for patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), and INS1202, an intrathecally delivered gene therapy for patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).

Our pre-clinical research programs encompass a wide range of technologies and modalities, including gene therapy, AI-driven protein engineering, protein manufacturing, RNA end-joining, and synthetic rescue.

A summary of our commercial products and clinical-stage pipeline is shown below:

The information below summarizes our updates and anticipated near-term milestones across our therapeutic areas.

Respiratory

BRINSUPRI

•In August 2025, BRINSUPRI (brensocatib 25 mg and 10 mg tablets), an oral, once-daily treatment for NCFB in adults and children 12 years and older, was approved in the US by the FDA. We launched BRINSUPRI in the US in the third quarter of 2025.

•In November 2025, the EC approved BRINSUPRI (brensocatib 25 mg tablets) for the treatment of NCFB in patients 12 years of age and older with two or more exacerbations in the prior 12 months.

•We anticipate regulatory decisions for brensocatib for the treatment of NCFB in the United Kingdom (UK) and Japan in 2026.

•We continue to evaluate the potential effect of evolving US policies which will then impact the timing for future potential international commercial launches.

ARIKAYCE

•Following the announcement of positive topline results from the ARISE trial, in June 2024, we met and aligned with the FDA on the primary endpoint for the ENCORE trial. If the data are positive, ENCORE may support a label expansion to include all MAC lung disease as well as support full approval for the current refractory indication.

•We completed enrollment in the ENCORE trial with 425 patients in the fourth quarter of 2024.

•We anticipate reporting topline data from the ENCORE trial by April 2026, with the submission of a US supplementary new drug application (sNDA) for ARIKAYCE in all patients with MAC lung disease projected for the second half of 2026. We also plan to review the data with the Pharmaceuticals and Medical Devices Agency to support potential label expansion in Japan.

TPIP

•In January 2026, the Office of Orphan Products Development of the FDA granted orphan drug designation to treprostinil palmitil for the treatment of patients with PAH. We plan to initiate a Phase 3 study of TPIP in patients with PAH in the first half of 2026.

7

•We initiated PALM-ILD, a Phase 3 study of TPIP in patients with PH-ILD in the fourth quarter of 2025 and are actively enrolling patients.

•We expect to report data from the open-label extension (OLE) of our Phase 2b study of TPIP in PAH in the second half of 2026.

•Additional Phase 3 studies of TPIP are anticipated to be initiated in patients with PPF and IPF in the second half of 2026.

INS1148

•In December 2025, we acquired INS1148, a Phase 2-ready monoclonal antibody targeting SCF248.

•We plan to advance Phase 2 development programs for INS1148 initially in interstitial lung disease and moderate to severe asthma.

We are exploring additional opportunities utilizing our various technologies within the Respiratory therapeutic area.

Immunology & Inflammation

Brensocatib

•In October 2025, we completed enrollment in the Phase 2b CEDAR study of brensocatib in patients with HS. We anticipate reporting topline data in the second quarter of 2026.

We are exploring additional opportunities utilizing our various technologies within the Immunology & Inflammation therapeutic area.

Neuro & Other Rare

INS1201

•We continue to enroll patients in the Phase 1 ASCEND clinical study of INS1201 for patients with DMD.

INS1202

•We continue to enroll patients in the Phase 1 ARMOR clinical study of INS1202 for patients with ALS.

We are exploring additional opportunities utilizing our various technologies within the Neuro & Other Rare therapeutic area.

Our Strategy

We strive to develop and commercialize first- and best-in-class therapies that serve patient communities where the need is greatest. Our commercial portfolio and clinical pipeline are organized around three therapeutic areas: Respiratory, Immunology & Inflammation, and Neuro & Other Rare. Our Respiratory therapeutic area includes our commercial products ARIKAYCE and BRINSUPRI and the clinical-stage product candidates TPIP and INS1148. Our first product, ARIKAYCE, is approved in the US as ARIKAYCE (amikacin liposome inhalation suspension), in Europe as ARIKAYCE Liposomal 590 mg Nebuliser Dispersion and in Japan as ARIKAYCE inhalation 590mg (amikacin sulfate inhalation drug product). We are not aware of any other approved inhaled therapies specifically indicated to treat MAC lung disease in North America, Europe or Japan. We believe that ARIKAYCE has the potential to prove beneficial in other patients with refractory MAC lung disease. Our second commercial product, BRINSUPRI, was approved in the US and EU in August 2025 and November 2025, respectively, for the treatment of NCFB. Regulatory submissions for brensocatib in the UK and Japan have been accepted. TPIP is our product candidate that may offer a differentiated product profile for patients with PH-ILD, PAH, PPF, and IPF. INS1148 is a monoclonal antibody targeting SCF248. Our Immunology & Inflammation therapeutic area includes brensocatib, which we are developing for HS. Our Neuro & Other Rare therapeutic area includes INS1201, our intrathecally delivered gene therapy product candidate for patients with DMD, and INS1202, our intrathecally delivered gene therapy product candidate for patients with ALS. We are also advancing pre-clinical research programs encompassing a wide range of technologies and modalities, including gene therapy, AI-driven protein engineering, protein manufacturing, RNA end-joining, and synthetic rescue.

Our key priorities are as follows:

•Ensure successful US commercial launch of BRINSUPRI;

•Continue to provide ARIKAYCE to appropriate patients and expand our label;

•Advance our pipeline and produce topline clinical data readouts in the near and long term; and

•Control spending, prudently deploying capital to support the best return-generating opportunities.

BRINSUPRI

8

BRINSUPRI (brensocatib 25 mg and 10 mg tablets), an oral, once-daily treatment for NCFB in adults and children 12 years and older, was approved in the US by the FDA in August 2025. In November 2025, BRINSUPRI (brensocatib 25 mg tablets), an oral, once-daily treatment for NCFB in adults and children 12 years and older with two or more exacerbations in the prior 12 months, was approved by the EC. Regulatory submissions for brensocatib in the UK and Japan have been accepted.

Brensocatib is a small molecule, reversible inhibitor of DPP1, which we licensed from AstraZeneca in October 2016. DPP1 is an enzyme responsible for activating neutrophil serine proteases (NSPs) in neutrophils when they are formed in the bone marrow. Neutrophils are the most common type of white blood cell and play an essential role in pathogen destruction and inflammatory mediation. Neutrophils contain the NSPs (including neutrophil elastase, proteinase 3, and cathepsin G) that have been implicated in a variety of inflammatory diseases. In chronic inflammatory lung diseases, neutrophils accumulate in the airways and result in excessive active NSPs that cause lung destruction and inflammation. Brensocatib may decrease the damaging effects of inflammatory diseases such as bronchiectasis by inhibiting DPP1 and its activation of NSPs.

In June 2020, the FDA granted breakthrough therapy designation for brensocatib for the treatment of adult patients with NCFB for reducing exacerbations. In November 2020, brensocatib was granted access to the PRIME scheme from the EMA for patients with NCFB. In October 2021, the EMA’s Paediatric Committee approved the brensocatib Pediatric Investigational Plan (the PIP) for the treatment of patients with NCFB. As a result, the ASPEN trial included 41 adolescent patients between ages 12 to 17, which trial design satisfied the pediatric study requirements to support marketing applications in this patient population in the US, Europe and Japan. As a condition of BRINSUPRI’s approval in the US, we agreed with the FDA to conduct a pediatric post marketing study of BRINSUPRI in children between ages 6 and 11. We are also required to continue to progress the PIP notwithstanding BRINSUPRI’s approval in the EU.

The ASPEN Study

Based on positive results of our Phase 2b study of brensocatib in patients with NCFB (the WILLOW study), in December 2020 we commenced the ASPEN study, a global, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase 3 study to assess the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of brensocatib in adult patients with bronchiectasis. Patients with bronchiectasis due to CF were not enrolled in the study. The primary endpoint was the rate of adjudicated pulmonary exacerbations (PEs) over the 52-week treatment period. Secondary endpoints included the time to first adjudicated PE, the proportion of subjects free of adjudicated PE by 52 weeks, the absolute change from baseline in post-bronchodilator FEV1, the reduction in annualized rate of severe adjudicated PE, and the change from baseline in the Bronchiectasis QOL-B Respiratory Symptoms Domain Score.

As part of the ASPEN study, more than 460 trial sites were engaged in nearly 40 countries. After excluding sites that did not enroll any patients and all sites in Ukraine, due to the ongoing conflict, the total number of active sites in ASPEN was 391 sites in 35 countries. Adult patients (ages 18 to 85 years) were randomized 1:1:1 and adolescent patients (ages 12 to 18 years) were randomized 2:2:1 for treatment with brensocatib 10 mg, brensocatib 25 mg, or placebo once daily for 52 weeks, followed by 4 weeks off treatment.

ASPEN Safety Information and Efficacy Data

We announced positive topline results from the ASPEN trial in May 2024. Results from the ASPEN trial were published in the NEJM in April 2025. The primary efficacy analysis included data from 1,680 adult patients and 41 adolescent patients. Brensocatib was well-tolerated in the study. In addition, the study met its primary endpoint, with both dosage strengths of brensocatib demonstrating statistically significant reductions in the annualized rate of adjudicated PEs versus placebo. The study also met several of its prespecified secondary endpoints with statistical significance.

Topline efficacy results from the ASPEN study were as follows:

Market Opportunity for BRINSUPRI

Bronchiectasis is a severe, chronic pulmonary disorder in which the bronchi become permanently dilated due to a cycle of infection, inflammation, and lung tissue damage. The condition is marked by frequent pulmonary exacerbations requiring antibiotic therapy and/or hospitalizations. Symptoms include chronic cough, excessive sputum production, shortness of breath, and repeated respiratory infections, which can worsen the underlying condition. Based on information from external sources, including market research funded by us and third parties, and internal analyses and calculations, we estimate the potential addressable market in bronchiectasis in the US, the European 5 (comprised of France, Germany, Italy, Spain and the UK) and Japan are as follows:

Potential MarketEstimated Number of Patients Diagnosed with Bronchiectasis
United States500,000
European 5600,000
Japan150,000

We are not aware of any other approved therapies in the US, Europe, or Japan for the treatment of patients with bronchiectasis.

ARIKAYCE for Patients with MAC Lung Disease

ARIKAYCE is our first approved product. ARIKAYCE received accelerated approval in the US in September 2018 for the treatment of refractory MAC lung disease as part of a combination antibacterial drug regimen for adult patients with limited or no alternative treatment options. In October 2020, ARIKAYCE received approval in Europe for the treatment of NTM lung infections caused by MAC in adults with limited treatment options who do not have CF. In March 2021, ARIKAYCE received approval in Japan for the treatment of patients with NTM lung disease caused by MAC who did not sufficiently respond to prior treatment with a multidrug regimen. MAC lung disease is a rare and often chronic infection that can cause irreversible lung damage and can be fatal. Amikacin solution for parenteral administration is an established drug that has activity against a variety of NTM; however, its use is limited by the need to administer it intravenously and by toxicity to hearing, balance, and kidney function. Unlike amikacin solution for intravenous administration, our proprietary Pulmovance™ technology uses charge-neutral liposomes to deliver amikacin directly to the lungs where liposomal amikacin is taken up by the lung macrophages where the MAC infection resides. This technology also prolongs the release of amikacin in the lungs, while minimizing systemic exposure, thereby offering the potential for decreased systemic toxicities. ARIKAYCE's ability to deliver high levels of amikacin directly to the lung and sites of MAC infection via the use of our Pulmovance technology distinguishes it from intravenous amikacin. ARIKAYCE is administered once-daily using Lamira, an inhalation device developed and manufactured by PARI. Lamira is a portable nebulizer that enables aerosolization of liquid medications via a vibrating, perforated membrane, and was designed specifically for ARIKAYCE delivery.

The FDA has designated ARIKAYCE as an orphan drug and a Qualified Infectious Disease Product (QIDP) for NTM lung disease. Orphan designated drugs are eligible for seven years of exclusivity for the orphan indication. QIDP designation provides an additional five years of exclusivity for the designated indication. The FDA granted a total of 12 years of exclusivity in the indication for which ARIKAYCE was approved.

10

ARIKAYCE also has been included in the international treatment guidelines for NTM lung disease. The evidence-based guidelines, issued by the American Thoracic Society (ATS), European Respiratory Society (ERS), European Society of Clinical Microbiology and Infectious Diseases (ESCMID), and Infectious Diseases Society of America (IDSA), strongly recommend the use of ARIKAYCE for MAC lung disease as part of a combination antibacterial drug regimen for adult patients with limited or no alternative treatment options who have failed to convert to a negative sputum culture after at least six months of treatment.

In October 2020, the FDA approved a supplemental new drug application for ARIKAYCE, adding important efficacy data regarding the durability and sustainability of culture conversion to the ARIKAYCE label. The data, which are from the Company's Phase 3 study of ARIKAYCE (the CONVERT study), demonstrate that the addition of ARIKAYCE to guideline-based therapy (GBT) was associated with sustained culture conversion through the end of treatment as well as durable culture conversion three months post-treatment compared with GBT alone.

Accelerated Approval and Post-Marketing Confirmatory Clinical Trial

In September 2018, the FDA granted accelerated approval for ARIKAYCE under the Limited Population Pathway for Antibacterial and Antifungal Drugs (LPAD) for the treatment of refractory MAC lung disease as part of a combination antibacterial drug regimen for adult patients with limited or no alternative treatment options. LPAD, which was enacted as part of the 21st Century Cures Act, serves to advance the development of new antibacterial drugs to treat serious or life-threatening infections in limited populations of patients with unmet needs. As required for drugs approved under the LPAD pathway, labeling for ARIKAYCE includes certain statements to convey that the drug has been shown to be safe and effective only for use in a limited population.

As a condition of accelerated approval, we must conduct a post-marketing confirmatory clinical trial. In December 2020, we commenced the post-marketing confirmatory clinical trial program for ARIKAYCE in patients with MAC lung disease consisting of the ARISE trial, an interventional study designed to validate cross-sectional and longitudinal characteristics of a patient-reported outcome (PRO) tool in MAC lung disease, and the ENCORE trial, designed to establish the clinical benefits and evaluate the safety of ARIKAYCE in patients with newly diagnosed or recurrent MAC lung infection who have not started antibiotics using the PRO tool validated in the ARISE trial. In September 2023, we announced positive topline results from the ARISE trial. The study met its primary objective of demonstrating that the QOL-B respiratory domain works effectively as a PRO tool in patients with MAC lung disease. Based on feedback and in alignment with the FDA, we have determined that the primary endpoint for the ENCORE study will include eight questions from the QOL-B respiratory domain PRO. We completed enrollment of the ENCORE study in the fourth quarter of 2024, with 425 patients enrolled. We anticipate reporting topline data by April 2026. If the data are positive, ENCORE may support a label expansion to include all MAC lung disease as well as support full approval for the current refractory indication.

The ARISE Study

The ARISE trial was a global, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase 3b study in adult patients with newly diagnosed or recurrent MAC infections that aimed to generate evidence demonstrating the domain specification, reliability, validity, and responsiveness of PRO-based scores, including a respiratory symptom score. The ARISE study met its primary objective of demonstrating that the QOL-B respiratory domain works effectively as a PRO tool in patients with MAC lung disease.

Patients in ARISE (N=99) were randomized 1:1 to treatment with ARIKAYCE plus macrolide-based background regimen (ARIKAYCE arm) or placebo plus macrolide-based background regimen (comparator arm) once daily for six months, followed by one month off treatment. ARIKAYCE-treated patients performed better than those in the comparator arm as measured by the QOL-B instrument, with 43.8% of patients achieving an improvement in QOL-B respiratory score above the estimated meaningful within-subject score difference of 14.8, compared with 33.3% of patients in the comparator arm. While the study was not powered to show a statistically significant difference between treatment arms, a strong trend toward significance was observed for improvement from baseline at Month 7 (12.24 vs. 7.76, p=0.1073). Patients in the ARIKAYCE arm also achieved nominally statistically significantly higher culture conversion rates at Month 7 versus patients in the comparator arm (78.8% vs. 47.1%, p=0.0010), and culture conversion was faster and more likely to persist through Month 7 for the ARIKAYCE arm, suggesting that ARIKAYCE-treated patients are more likely to remain negative.

Consistent with our expectations, the FDA and the Pharmaceuticals and Medical Devices Agency in Japan confirmed that they would not consider a label expansion for ARIKAYCE based on data from the ARISE study alone.

ARISE Culture Conversion

Consistent with prior clinical studies, a higher proportion of patients in the ARIKAYCE arm achieved culture conversion by Month 6 (defined as negative cultures at Months 5 and 6) compared to patients in the comparator arm (80.6% vs. 63.9%, p=0.0712). Among patients who achieved culture conversion by Month 6, more patients in the ARIKAYCE arm achieved the first of their two required monthly negative cultures for clinical conversion at Month 1 versus the comparator arm

11

(74.3% vs. 46.7%). As reported above, at Month 7 (one month following the cessation of treatment), 78.8% of patients in the ARIKAYCE arm vs. 47.1% of patients in the comparator arm were culture-converted, suggesting that ARIKAYCE-treated patients are more likely to remain negative.

Correlation Between ARISE Culture Conversion and QOL-B Performance

Patients in the ARIKAYCE arm who achieved culture conversion at both Month 6 and Month 7 had nominally statistically significantly greater improvements in QOL-B respiratory domain scores at Month 7 compared to patients in the ARIKAYCE arm who did not achieve culture conversion (15.74 vs. 3.53, p=0.0167 at Month 6 and 14.89 vs. 4.50, p=0.0416 at Month 7).

ARISE Safety and Tolerability

The discontinuation rate of ARIKAYCE or the placebo used in the comparator arm was 22.9% in the ARIKAYCE arm and 7.8% in the comparator arm. Study completion rates were 91.7% in the ARIKAYCE arm and 94.1% in the comparator arm. No new safety events were observed in the ARIKAYCE arm, and the safety profile in general was as expected in both treatment arms. Treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) were reported by 91.7% of patients in the ARIKAYCE arm and 80.4% of patients in the comparator arm. The most common TEAEs were dysphonia (41.7% for the ARIKAYCE arm vs. 3.9% for the comparator arm), cough (27.1% vs. 7.8%), diarrhea (27.1% vs. 25.5%), and COVID-19 (12.5% vs. 9.8%). Of the treatment-emergent serious adverse events observed in the trial, none were determined to be related to ARIKAYCE by investigators.

The ENCORE Study

The ENCORE trial is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase 3b study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of an ARIKAYCE-based regimen in patients with newly diagnosed or recurrent MAC infection who have not started antibiotics. Patients are randomized 1:1 to receive ARIKAYCE plus background regimen or placebo plus background regimen once daily for 12 months. Patients will then discontinue all study treatments and remain in the trial for three months for the assessment of durability of culture conversion. The primary endpoint is change from baseline to Month 13 in respiratory symptom score. The key secondary endpoint is the proportion of subjects achieving durable culture conversion at Month 15. In June 2024, we met and aligned with the FDA on the primary endpoint for the ENCORE study. If the data are positive, ENCORE may support a label expansion to include all MAC lung patients as well as support full approval for the current refractory indication. Based on feedback and in alignment with the FDA, we have determined that the primary endpoint for the ENCORE study will include eight questions from the QOL-B respiratory domain PRO. We completed enrollment of the ENCORE study in the fourth quarter of 2024, with 425 patients enrolled. We anticipate reporting topline data by April 2026. Pending successful results from the ENCORE trial, we plan to submit a sNDA to the FDA for ARIKAYCE in all patients with MAC lung disease in the US in the second half of 2026. We also plan to review the data with the Pharmaceuticals and Medical Devices Agency to support potential label expansion in Japan.

Regulatory Approval Outside of the US

In October 2020, the EC granted marketing authorization for ARIKAYCE for the treatment of NTM lung infections caused by MAC in adults with limited treatment options who do not have CF. ARIKAYCE can now be prescribed for patients across the EU countries as well as in the UK. ARIKAYCE is reimbursed nationally in France, Belgium, the Netherlands, the UK and Ireland. To date, we have been unable to reach an acceptable agreement of a nationally reimbursed price with the Italian Medicines Agency; however, ARIKAYCE remains commercially available for physicians to prescribe in Italy under Class C, where we set the price and funding is agreed locally.

In March 2021, Japan's MHLW approved ARIKAYCE for the treatment of patients with NTM lung disease caused by MAC who did not sufficiently respond to prior treatment with a multidrug regimen. In July 2021, we launched ARIKAYCE in Japan.

Further Research and Lifecycle Management

We are currently exploring and supporting research and lifecycle management programs for ARIKAYCE beyond treatment of refractory MAC lung disease as part of a combination antibacterial regimen for adult patients who have limited or no treatment options. As noted above, we will continue to advance the post-marketing confirmatory MAC lung disease clinical trial program for ARIKAYCE, through the completed ARISE and ongoing ENCORE trials, which are intended to fulfill the FDA's post-marketing requirement to allow for the full approval of ARIKAYCE in the US, as well as to support the use of ARIKAYCE as a treatment for patients with MAC lung disease.

Subsequent lifecycle management studies could also potentially enable us to reach more patients. These initiatives may include new clinical studies sponsored by us and may also include investigator-initiated studies, which are independent clinical studies initiated and sponsored by physicians or research institutions, with funding from us.

Market Opportunity for ARIKAYCE in MAC Lung Disease

NTM lung disease is associated with increased rates of morbidity and mortality, and MAC is the predominant pathogenic species in NTM lung disease in the US, Europe and Japan. The prevalence of NTM lung disease has increased over the past two decades, and we believe it is an emerging public health concern worldwide. Based on an analysis using information from external sources, including market research funded by us and third parties, and internal analyses and calculations, we estimate the potential patient populations in the US, the European 5 and Japan are as follows:

Potential MarketEstimated Number of Patients with Diagnosed MAC Lung DiseaseEstimated Number of Patients with Refractory MAC Lung Disease
United States95,000-115,00012,000-17,000
European 514,0001,400
Japan125,000-145,00015,000-18,000

We are not aware of any other approved inhaled therapies specifically indicated for NTM lung disease in North America, Europe or Japan. Based on a burden of illness study that we conducted in the US with a major medical benefits provider, we previously concluded that patients with NTM lung disease are costly to healthcare plans, while a claims-based study in the US has shown that patients with NTM lung disease have higher resource utilization and costs than their age and gender-matched controls. Accordingly, we believe that a significant market opportunity for ARIKAYCE in NTM lung disease exists in the US and internationally.

Treprostinil Palmitil Inhalation Powder

TPIP is an investigational inhaled dry powder formulation of treprostinil palmitil that has the potential to address certain of the current limitations of existing prostanoid therapies. We believe that TPIP prolongs duration of effect and may provide patients with greater consistency in pulmonary arterial pressure reduction over time. Current inhaled prostanoid therapies must be dosed four to nine times per day. Reducing dose frequency has the potential to ease treatment burden for patients and improve compliance. Additionally, we believe that TPIP may be associated with fewer side effects, including severity and/or frequency of cough, headache, throat irritation, nausea, flushing and dizziness that are associated with high initial drug levels and local upper airway exposure when using current inhaled prostanoid therapies. We believe TPIP may offer a differentiated product profile for PH-ILD, PAH, PPF and IPF. In January 2026, FDA granted treprostinil palmitil orphan drug designation for the treatment of PAH, based on a plausible hypothesis that it may be clinically superior to treprostinil already approved for the treatment of the same indication.

In February 2021, we announced topline results from the Phase 1 study of TPIP in healthy volunteers. The objective of this first-in-human single ascending dose and multiple ascending dose study was to assess the pharmacokinetics and tolerability profile of TPIP. Data from the study demonstrated that TPIP was generally well tolerated, with a pharmacokinetic profile that supports continued development with once-daily dosing. The most common AEs across all cohorts in the study were cough, dizziness, headache, and nausea. Most AEs were mild in severity and consistent in nature with those typically seen with other inhaled prostanoid therapies. There were few moderate AEs and no severe or serious AEs. Subjects in the multiple dose panel that incorporated an up-titration approach beginning at 112.5 µg once-daily and progressing to 225 µg once-daily reported fewer AEs compared to the panel dosed with 225 µg once-daily from the first dose.

Overall pharmacokinetic results demonstrated that treprostinil exposure (AUC and Cmax) was dose-proportional, with low to moderate inter-subject variability. Treprostinil was detected in the plasma at 24 hours at all doses and throughout the 48-hour sampling period for the two highest doses. Compared with currently available inhaled treprostinil therapy, TPIP showed substantially lower Cmax and longer half-life.

In May 2024, we reported positive topline safety data and certain exploratory efficacy endpoints from the Phase 2a study of TPIP in patients with PH-ILD. A total of 39 patients were randomized 3:1 to receive either TPIP (n=29) or placebo (n=10) for 16 weeks. Patients started at a dose of 80 µg once daily (TPIP or matching placebo) and were titrated up to their maximum tolerated dose, or to the maximum allowable dose of 640 µg, once daily over a three-week period, with the possibility of a final dose increase occurring at Week 5. Of the patients treated with TPIP, 79.3% of patients were able to reach the maximum 640 µg dose by Week 5, compared to 100.0% of patients in the placebo arm. TEAEs which led to treatment discontinuation were reported in 13.8% of patients in the active treatment arm and 30.0% of patients in the placebo arm. Adverse events related to study drug were reported in 55.2% of TPIP patients and 40.0% of placebo patients. Serious adverse events were reported in 20.7% of TPIP-treated patients and 40.0% of placebo-treated patients. Deaths were reported in 6.9% of patients taking TPIP and 20.0% of patients taking placebo. All deaths were attributed to disease progression or comorbid causes, none of which were deemed related to study drug.

There were no meaningful changes in oxygenation levels compared to baseline for TPIP-treated patients at rest or at the lowest point during or after exercise. There was also no change in the use of supplemental oxygen for patients taking TPIP.

13

There was a small decrease in oxygenation levels observed after exercise for patients on TPIP, compared to a slight increase for patients taking placebo.

On the exploratory endpoint of change from baseline in 6-minute walk distance (6MWD), TPIP-treated patients demonstrated a 30-meter improvement compared to patients treated with placebo. However, this result was associated with a wide confidence interval. In addition, there was a directional improvement observed in N-terminal pro b-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) levels from baseline for patients taking TPIP and a directional worsening observed in patients on placebo, although no meaningful separation was observed between groups. Events of clinical worsening were reported in 10.3% of patients taking TPIP, compared to 50.0% of patients taking placebo. This difference was nominally significant (p=0.0164).

We initiated PALM-ILD, a Phase 3 study of patients with PH-ILD, in the fourth quarter of 2025.

In June 2025, we announced positive topline results from the Phase 2b study of TPIP in patients with PAH. The study met its primary endpoint and secondary efficacy endpoints. For the primary endpoint, the placebo-adjusted reduction from baseline in pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR) was 35% with Least Squares (LS) mean ratio of 0.65 (95% Confidence Interval (CI): 0.54, 0.79; p0.001). For the secondary efficacy endpoints, the placebo-adjusted improvement in 6MWD was 35.5 meters (95% CI: 11.2, 60.7; p=0.003) and the placebo-adjusted reduction from baseline in NT-proBNP concentrations, a biomarker for cardiac stress, was 60% with LS mean ratio of 0.40 (95% CI: 0.27, 0.59; p0.001). Efficacy of TPIP was evaluated approximately 24 hours after therapy was administered.

The TPIP PAH study was conducted at 44 sites globally, and a total of 102 patients were randomized 2:1 to receive either TPIP (n=69) or placebo (n=33) for 16 weeks. Demographics and baseline characteristics were similar in both study arms. Patients started at a dose of 80 µg once daily (TPIP or matching placebo) and were titrated up to their maximum tolerated dose, or to the maximum allowable dose of 640 µg, once daily over a three-week period, with the possibility of a final dose increase occurring at Week 5. Of the patients treated with TPIP, 84% titrated to at least 480 µg once daily (n=58) and 75% titrated to the maximum allowed dose of 640 µg once daily (n=52). Overall, 90% of patients receiving TPIP (n=62) and all patients receiving placebo completed the study.

Once-daily TPIP therapy was well-tolerated in the study. TEAEs occurred in 88.4% of patients who received TPIP versus 75.8% of patients who received placebo; serious TEAEs were observed in 7.2% of patients who received TPIP versus 3.0% of patients who received placebo; and severe TEAEs were observed in 5.8% of patients who received TPIP versus 3.0% of patients who received placebo. TEAEs leading to treatment discontinuation were experienced by 5.8% of patients taking TPIP; there were none in the placebo arm. There were no deaths in the study. The most common TEAEs occurring in at least 5.0% of patients in any study arm, and more frequently with TPIP than with placebo, were cough (40.6%, 21.2%), headache (31.9%, 15.2%), fatigue (10.1%, 3.0%), chest discomfort (8.7%, 0.0%), flushing (8.7%, 3.0%), upper respiratory tract infection (7.2%, 3.0%), and non-cardiac chest pain (5.8%, 3.0%) for TPIP and placebo, respectively.

Based on these results, we plan to initiate a Phase 3 study of TPIP in patients with PAH in the first half of 2026.

All patients who completed the Phase 2b study were eligible to enroll in the long-term OLE, which will evaluate TPIP up to a maximum allowable dose of 1,280 µg once daily. Of the patients who completed the Phase 2b study (n=95), 95% enrolled in the OLE. We expect to report data from the OLE of our Phase 2b study of TPIP in PAH in the second half of 2026.

Additional Phase 3 studies of TPIP are anticipated to be initiated in PPF and IPF in the second half of 2026.

Market Opportunity for TPIP in PH-ILD and PAH

We believe TPIP may be a highly effective therapy that has the potential to ease the treatment burden for patients with PH-ILD and PAH, improve compliance and be associated with fewer side effects compared to current therapies. Based on our assessment of information from external sources, including market research conducted by third parties, we estimate the

14

potential addressable market for TPIP at launch in the US, the European 5 and Japan will be as follows (approximately):

Potential MarketEstimated Number of Patients Diagnosed with PH-ILDEstimated Number of Patients Diagnosed with PAH
United States50,00035,000
European 565,00040,000
Japan20,00015,000

Brensocatib

In December 2025, we completed the Phase 2b BiRCh study of brensocatib in patients with chronic rhinosinusitis without nasal polyps (CRSsNP). The study did not meet its primary or secondary efficacy endpoints and we have discontinued our development program for brensocatib in CRSsNP.

INS1148

In December 2025, we acquired global rights to OpSCF (renamed INS1148) from Opsidio LLC (Opsidio). INS1148 is an investigational monoclonal antibody that we are developing as a potential first-in-class therapy to address respiratory and immunological and inflammatory diseases with high unmet need. Through its novel mechanism of action, INS1148 preferentially targets SCF248. Binding to SCF248 induces clearance of this SCF isoform and interrupts only the inflammatory cascade downstream of c-Kit signaling, while leaving the homeostatic and tissue healing c-Kit pathways intact. We plan to advance Phase 2 development programs for INS1148 initially in interstitial lung disease and moderate to severe asthma. See Note 18 - Acquisitions in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for further details.

Immunology & Inflammation

Brensocatib

We are conducting the Phase 2b CEDAR study to explore the efficacy and safety of brensocatib in HS. CEDAR is a randomized, double-blind study that enrolled adults with moderate to severe HS and assigned them 1:1:1 to brensocatib 10 mg once daily, brensocatib 40 mg once daily, or placebo for 16 weeks, followed by continued double-blind active treatment with brensocatib at the doses of 10 mg and 40 mg once daily for 36 weeks. The study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of brensocatib across clinically relevant endpoints in this population. CEDAR is fully enrolled, and we anticipate reporting topline data in the second quarter of 2026.

Neuro & Other Rare

INS1201

In the fourth quarter of 2024, we received clearance from the FDA for our IND application for INS1201, a micro-dystrophin adeno-associated virus gene therapy for patients with DMD. Administered intrathecally, this approach has the potential to target both skeletal and cardiac muscles at lower doses than intravenous DMD gene therapies. The FDA granted INS1201 Rare Pediatric Disease Designation in May 2024. We have initiated a Phase 1 study of INS1201, which we refer to as the ASCEND trial, and continue to enroll patients.

INS1202

In the third quarter of 2025, we received clearance from the FDA for our IND application for INS1202, an investigational adeno-associated virus (AAV9) short hairpin RNA (shRNA) construct targeting the human superoxide dismutase type 1 (SOD1) gene. We are developing INS1202 as a potential treatment for patients with ALS who carry SOD1 mutations and those who do not have SOD1 mutations. INS1202 is administered intrathecally as a one-time fixed (non-weight-based) dose. We have initiated a Phase 1 study of INS1202, which we refer to as the ARMOR trial, and continue to enroll patients.

Corporate Development

We plan to continue to develop, acquire, in-license or co-promote other commercial products, product candidates and technologies, including those that address serious diseases that currently have significant unmet needs. We are focused broadly on serious disease therapeutics and prioritizing those within our three therapeutic areas.

Manufacturing

We do not have any in-house manufacturing capability other than for small-scale pre-clinical development programs and we depend completely on a small number of third-party manufacturers and suppliers for the manufacture of our product candidates for use in clinical trials. We plan to rely primarily on third-party manufacturers and suppliers for the commercial manufacture and supply of most product candidates that we commercialize. ARIKAYCE is manufactured currently by

15

Resilience Biotechnologies Inc. (Resilience) (formerly Therapure Biopharma Inc.) in Canada at a 200 kilogram (kg) scale. For additional information about our agreement with Resilience, see License and Other Agreements—ARIKAYCE-related Agreements.

In October 2017, we entered into certain agreements with Patheon UK Limited (Patheon), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc. (Thermo Fisher), related to increasing our long-term production capacity for ARIKAYCE commercial inventory. The agreements provide for Patheon to manufacture and supply ARIKAYCE for our anticipated long-term commercial needs. Under these agreements, we are required to deliver to Patheon the required raw materials, including active pharmaceutical ingredients, and certain fixed assets needed to manufacture ARIKAYCE. The aggregate investment to increase the long-term production capacity, including under these agreements, and related agreements or purchase orders with third parties for raw materials and fixed assets, is estimated to be approximately $127.7 million. In addition, we have a commercialization agreement with PARI, the manufacturer of our drug delivery nebulizer for ARIKAYCE, to address our commercial supply needs (the Commercialization Agreement).

In January 2024, we entered into certain agreements with Patheon Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Thermo Fisher, related to the manufacture and supply of commercial brensocatib products, including BRINSUPRI, by Patheon Inc. for our long-term commercial needs. In addition, in September 2024, we entered into a commercial manufacturing and supply agreement with Esteve Química, S.A. (Esteve) for the manufacture and supply of active pharmaceutical ingredient for brensocatib. We are required to deliver to Patheon Inc. the active pharmaceutical ingredient needed to manufacture BRINSUPRI.

We expect to utilize contract manufacturing organizations (CMOs) to fulfill our future manufacturing requirements for TPIP. We are evaluating future in-house manufacturing capabilities.

Intellectual Property

We own or license rights to more than 1,400 issued patents and pending patent applications in the US and in foreign countries, including more than 400 issued patents and pending patent applications related to ARIKAYCE. Our success depends in large part on our ability to maintain proprietary protection surrounding our product candidates, technology and know-how; to operate without infringing the proprietary rights of others; and to prevent others from infringing our proprietary rights. We actively seek patent protection by filing patent applications, including on inventions that are important to the development of our business in the US, Europe, Japan, Canada, and selected other foreign markets that we consider key for our product candidates. These international markets generally include Australia, China, India, Israel and Mexico.

Our patent strategy includes obtaining patent protection, where possible, on compositions of matter, methods of manufacture, methods of use, dosing and administration regimens and formulations. We also rely on trade secrets, know-how, continuing technological innovation, in-licensing and partnership opportunities to develop and maintain our proprietary position.

We monitor for activities that may infringe our proprietary rights, as well as the progression of third-party patent applications that may have the potential to create blocks to our products or otherwise interfere with the development of our business. We are aware, for example, of US patents, and corresponding international counterparts, owned by third parties that contain claims related to treating lung infections using inhaled antibiotics. If any of these patents were to be asserted against us, we do not believe that our marketed product or development candidates would be found to infringe any valid claim of these patents.

Reflecting our commitment to safeguarding proprietary information, we require our employees, consultants, advisors, collaborators and other third-party partners to sign confidentiality agreements to protect the exchange of proprietary materials and information. We also seek to preserve the integrity and confidentiality of our data and trade secrets by maintaining physical security of our premises and physical and electronic security of our information technology systems.

License and Other Agreements

Multi-program Agreements

PPD Development, L.P. (a wholly-owned subsidiary of Thermo Fisher)

In April 2020, we entered into a master services agreement with PPD Development, L.P. (PPD) pursuant to which we retained PPD to perform clinical development services in connection with certain of our clinical research programs. The master services agreement has an initial term of five years. In March 2025, we amended the agreement to extend the term three years. Either party may terminate (i) any project addendum under the master services agreement for any reason and without cause upon 30 days’ written notice, (ii) any project addendum in the event of the other party’s breach of the master services agreement or such project addendum upon 30 days’ written notice, provided that such breach is not cured within such 30-day period, (iii) the master services agreement or any project addendum immediately upon the occurrence of an insolvency event with respect to the other party or (iv) any project addendum upon 30 days’ written notice if (a) the continuation of the services under such project addendum would post material ethical or safety risks to study participants, (b) any approval from a regulatory authority necessary to perform the applicable study is revoked, suspended or expires without renewal or (c) in the reasonable opinion of such party, continuation of the services provided under such project addendum would be in violation of applicable law. We have entered into project addenda with PPD to perform clinical development services over several years for, but not limited to, our PALM-ILD and PAH studies and other trials involving brensocatib and TPIP. The anticipated future cost of these project addenda is $295.7 million.

Brensocatib-related Agreements (including BRINSUPRI)

AstraZeneca

In October 2016, we entered into a license agreement with AstraZeneca (the AZ License Agreement), pursuant to which AstraZeneca granted us exclusive global rights for the purpose of developing and commercializing AZD7986 (renamed brensocatib). Following FDA approval, brensocatib was commercially designated as BRINSUPRI. In consideration of the licenses and other rights granted by AstraZeneca, we made an upfront payment of $30.0 million in late October 2016. In December 2020, we incurred a $12.5 million milestone payment obligation upon the first dosing in a Phase 3 clinical trial of brensocatib. In May 2024, upon our release of an official public statement that we intended to file an NDA, we incurred an additional $12.5 million milestone payment obligation. Upon regulatory approval by the FDA of an NDA, we paid AstraZeneca an additional $30.0 million. In November 2025, a $15.0 million milestone commitment became payable to AstraZeneca upon EC approval, and was paid in January 2026. Subsequent to this milestone, we are also obligated to make an additional $15.0 million contingent payment upon the achievement of a regulatory filing milestone. If we elect to develop brensocatib for a second indication, we will be obligated to make an additional series of contingent milestone payments totaling up to $42.5 million, the first of which occurs at the initiation of a Phase 3 trial in the additional indication. We are not obligated to make milestone payments for additional indications. In addition, we have agreed to pay AstraZeneca tiered royalties ranging from high single-digit to mid-teens on net sales of any approved product based on brensocatib and one additional payment of $35.0 million upon the first achievement of $1.0 billion in annual net sales. The AZ License Agreement provides AstraZeneca with the option to negotiate a future agreement with us for commercialization of brensocatib in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease or asthma. If we fail to comply with our obligations under our agreements with AstraZeneca (including, among other things, if we fail to use commercially reasonable efforts to develop and commercialize a product based on brensocatib, or we are subject to a bankruptcy or insolvency), AstraZeneca would have the right to terminate the license.

In March 2020, AstraZeneca exercised its first option pursuant to our October 2016 license agreement under which AstraZeneca can advance clinical development of brensocatib in the indications of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) or asthma. Under the terms of the agreement, upon exercise of this option, AstraZeneca became solely responsible for all aspects of the development of brensocatib up to and including Phase 2b clinical trials in COPD or asthma. In March 2024, AstraZeneca exercised its second and final option under the agreement to further develop brensocatib beyond Phase 2b clinical trials and, if approved, commercialize brensocatib in the indications of COPD or asthma, upon reaching agreement after good faith negotiations resulting in terms, including financial terms, satisfactory to us and to AstraZeneca for such further development and commercialization. In June 2024, the negotiation period following such exercise of the final option expired. No agreement was reached between us and AstraZeneca to permit AstraZeneca to further develop and, if approved, commercialize brensocatib in the indications of COPD or asthma. As a result, we retain full worldwide development and commercialization rights for brensocatib in all indications other than COPD or asthma and AstraZeneca has no further development or commercialization rights for brensocatib in COPD, asthma or any other indication.

Patheon Inc. (a wholly-owned subsidiary of Thermo Fisher) and related agreements

In January 2024, we entered into certain agreements with Patheon Inc. related to the manufacture and supply of brensocatib by Patheon Inc. for our long-term commercial needs. Under these agreements, we are required to deliver to Patheon Inc. the active pharmaceutical ingredients needed to manufacture brensocatib. Our master commercial manufacturing services

19

agreement with Patheon Inc. will remain in effect for a fixed initial term, after which it will continue for successive renewal terms unless either we or Patheon Inc. have given written notice of termination. The agreements may also be terminated under certain other circumstances, including by either party due to a material uncured breach of the other party or the other party’s insolvency. Patheon Inc.'s supply obligations are governed by individual product agreements entered into from time to time under the master commercial manufacturing services agreement. The product agreements specify, among other things, the term and pricing for Patheon Inc.’s supply obligations.

Esteve Química, S.A.

In September 2024, we entered into a commercial manufacturing and supply agreement with Esteve for the manufacture and supply of active pharmaceutical ingredient for brensocatib. The commercial manufacturing and supply agreement has an initial term of three years, after which it will continue for successive 12-month renewal terms unless either we or Esteve have given written notice of termination. The agreement may also be terminated under certain other circumstances, including by either party due to a material uncured breach of the other party or the other party’s insolvency, the discontinue of specified dosages or changes in the regulatory landscape. Esteve’s supply obligations are based on rolling forecasts of our anticipated demand for BRINSUPRI.

ARIKAYCE-related Agreements

PARI

We have a licensing agreement with PARI for use of the optimized Lamira Nebulizer System for delivery of ARIKAYCE in treating patients with NTM lung infections, CF and bronchiectasis. Under the licensing agreement, we have rights under several US and foreign issued patents and patent applications involving improvements to the optimized Lamira Nebulizer System, to exploit the system with ARIKAYCE for the treatment of such indications, but we cannot manufacture the nebulizers except as permitted under our Commercialization Agreement with PARI, which is described in further detail below. Lamira has been approved for use in the US (in combination with ARIKAYCE) and EU and is authorized for use in Japan. We also currently have rights to use the nebulizers in expanded access programs and clinical trials. Lamira must receive regulatory approval before we can market ARIKAYCE outside the US, EU and Japan, and it is labeled as investigational for use in our clinical trials outside of these regions.

We have certain obligations under this licensing agreement in relation to specified licensed indications. With respect to NTM, we met all obligations to achieve certain commercial, developmental and regulatory milestones by the required deadlines. With respect to bronchiectasis, we have satisfied our obligation to use commercially reasonable efforts to initiate a Phase 3 trial for bronchiectasis. With respect to CF, we are obligated to use commercially reasonable efforts to develop, obtain regulatory and reimbursement approval, market and sell ARIKAYCE in two or more major European countries, as well as to achieve certain milestones specified in the licensing agreement. Termination of the licensing agreement or loss of exclusive rights may occur if we fail to meet our obligations, including payment of royalties to PARI.

Under the licensing agreement, we paid PARI an upfront license fee and milestone payments. Upon FDA acceptance of our NDA and the subsequent FDA and EMA approvals of ARIKAYCE, we made additional milestone payments of €1.0 million, €1.5 million and €0.5 million, respectively, to PARI. In October 2017, we exercised an option to buy-down the royalties payable to PARI. PARI is entitled to receive royalty payments in the mid-single digits on annual global net sales of ARIKAYCE pursuant to the licensing agreement, subject to certain specified annual minimum royalties.

This licensing agreement will remain in effect on a country-by-country basis until the final royalty payments have been made with respect to the last country in which ARIKAYCE is sold, or until the agreement is otherwise terminated by either party. We have the right to terminate this licensing agreement upon written notice for PARI's uncured material breach, if PARI is the subject of specified bankruptcy or liquidation events, or if PARI fails to reach certain specified obligations. PARI has the right to terminate this licensing agreement upon written notice for our uncured material breach, if we are the subject of specified bankruptcy or liquidation events, if we assign or otherwise transfer the agreement to a third-party that does not agree to assume all of our rights and obligations set forth in the agreement, or if we fail to reach certain specified milestones.

In July 2014, we entered into a Commercialization Agreement with PARI for the manufacture and supply of the Lamira® Nebulizer Systems and related accessories (the Device), which is an e-Flow® nebulizer modified and optimized for use with ARIKAYCE. Under the Commercialization Agreement, PARI manufactures the Device except in the case of certain defined supply failures, when we will have the right to make the Device and have it made by third parties (but not certain third parties deemed under the Commercialization Agreement to compete with PARI). The Commercialization Agreement has an initial term of 15 years that began to run in October 2018 (the Initial Term). The term of the Commercialization Agreement may be extended by us for an additional five years by providing written notice to PARI at least one year prior to the expiration of the Initial Term.

Resilience

20

In February 2014, we entered into a contract manufacturing agreement with Therapure Biopharma Inc., which has been assumed by Resilience, for the manufacture of ARIKAYCE, on a non-exclusive basis, at a 200 kg scale. Pursuant to the agreement, we collaborated with Resilience to construct a production area for the manufacture of ARIKAYCE in Resilience's existing manufacturing facility in Mississauga, Ontario, Canada. The agreement had an initial term of five years, which began in October 2018, and renews automatically for successive periods of two years each, unless terminated by either party by providing the required two years' prior written notice to the other party. Under the agreement, we are obligated to pay a minimum of $6.0 million, subject to inflation, for commercial ARIKAYCE batches produced and certain manufacturing activities each calendar year. The agreement allows for termination by either party upon the occurrence of certain events, including (i) the material breach by the other party of any provision of the agreement or the quality agreement expected to be entered into between the parties, and (ii) the default or bankruptcy of the other party. In addition, we may terminate the agreement for any reason upon no fewer than 180 days' advance notice.

Patheon (a wholly-owned subsidiary of Thermo Fisher) and related agreements

In October 2017, we entered into certain agreements with Patheon related to the increase of our long-term production capacity for ARIKAYCE. The agreements provide for Patheon to manufacture and supply ARIKAYCE for our anticipated commercial needs. Under these agreements, we are required to deliver to Patheon the required raw materials, including active pharmaceutical ingredients, and certain fixed assets needed to manufacture ARIKAYCE. Patheon's supply obligations will commence once certain technology transfer and construction services are completed. Our manufacturing and supply agreement with Patheon will remain in effect for a fixed initial term, after which it will continue for successive renewal terms unless either we or Patheon have given written notice of termination. The technology transfer agreement will expire when the parties agree that the technology transfer services have been completed. The agreements may also be terminated under certain other circumstances, including by either party due to a material uncured breach of the other party or the other party’s insolvency. These early termination clauses may reduce the amounts due to the relevant parties. The aggregate investment to increase our long-term production capacity, including under the Patheon agreements and related agreements or purchase orders with third parties for raw materials and fixed assets, is estimated to be approximately $127.7 million.

Cystic Fibrosis Foundation Therapeutics, Inc.

In 2004 and 2009, we entered into research funding agreements with Cystic Fibrosis Foundation Therapeutics, Inc. (CFFT) whereby we received $1.7 million and $2.2 million in research funding for the development of ARIKAYCE. As a result of the US approval of ARIKAYCE and in accordance with the CFFT agreements, as amended, we owed milestone payments to CFFT of $13.4 million in the aggregate, which have been paid as of December 31, 2025. Furthermore, if certain global sales milestones were met within five years of the commercialization of ARIKAYCE, we would have owed up to an additional $3.9 million. We met and paid $1.7 million of these additional global sales milestone payments.

INS1148-related Agreement

Opsidio

In December 2025, we entered into an asset purchase agreement with Opsidio, pursuant to which we acquired all rights, including all development and commercialization rights, to INS1148. At the closing of the transaction, we owed an upfront payment to Opsidio of $40.0 million, subject to a customary holdback. The Opsidio shareholders may also become entitled to receive contingent payments up to an aggregate of $382 million in cash upon the achievement of certain development, regulatory and sales milestones, as well as earnout payments based upon a low to mid single-digit percentage of net sales of certain products, in each case subject to the terms and conditions of the agreement.

University of Michigan

In connection with our purchase of INS1148, we became exclusive licensee to certain patents from the Regents of the University of Michigan (Michigan), including US Patent Nos. 9,353,178, 9,790,272 and 10,501,535. Pursuant to the license, we have exclusive rights under the licensed patents to develop and commercialize INS1148. Obligations under the Michigan license extend until the last to expire patent, which is January 10, 2032. If INS1148 is marketed prior to the Michigan agreement expiring, we will owe a low single-digit running royalty on net sales of INS1148.

INS1202-related Agreement

Research Institute at Nationwide Children’s Hospital

In December 2023, we entered into a license agreement with NCH, pursuant to which we were granted an exclusive license under certain patents covering INS1202, to develop and commercialize INS1202 on a worldwide basis. In consideration for these rights, we made an upfront payment to NCH of $0.2 million and owe contingent milestones of up to $32.9 million. We also agreed to pay NCH a flat low single-digit royalty on net sales of INS1202 during the royalty term.

Competition

21

The biotechnology and pharmaceutical industries are highly competitive. We face potential competitors from many different areas including commercial pharmaceutical, biotechnology and device companies, academic institutions and scientists, other smaller or earlier stage companies and non-profit organizations developing anti-infective drugs and drugs for respiratory, inflammatory, immunology, oncology, and rare diseases. Many of these companies have greater human and financial resources and may have product candidates in more advanced stages of development and may reach the market before our product candidates. Competitors may develop products that are more effective, safer or less expensive or that have better tolerability or convenience. We also may face generic competitors where third-party payors will encourage use of the generic products. Although we believe that our formulation delivery technology, respiratory and anti-infective expertise, experience and knowledge in our specific areas of focus provide us with competitive advantages, these potential competitors could reduce our commercial opportunity. Additionally, there currently are, and in the future there may be, already-approved products for certain of the indications for which we are developing, or in the future may choose to develop, product candidates. For instance, PAH is a competitive indication with established marketed products, including other formulations of treprostinil.

In the lung disease market, our major competitors include pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies that have approved therapies or therapies in development for the treatment of chronic lung infections. There are other companies that are currently conducting clinical trials for the treatment of lung disease. While there are currently no approved treatments for bronchiectasis, other than BRINSUPRI, clinical studies in this disease state and specific endotypes (for instance, bronchiectasis with eosinophilic inflammation) have been initiated. Certain entities have expressed interest in studying other DPP1 inhibitors for the treatment of bronchiectasis and we are aware of several other entities currently conducting clinical trials for the treatment of bronchiectasis with a DPP1 inhibitor. Products developed by certain of our competitors may potentially be used in combination with brensocatib, if approved.

With regard to ARIKAYCE, we are not aware of any approved inhaled therapies specifically indicated for refractory NTM lung infections in North America, Europe or Japan, but there is a recommended treatment regimen that is utilized. The international treatment guidelines, which are issued by the ATS, ERS, ESCMID and IDSA, strongly recommend the use of ARIKAYCE for the treatment of patients with refractory NTM lung disease caused by MAC as a part of a combination antibacterial drug regiment for adult patients with limited or no alternative treatment options who have failed to convert to a negative sputum culture after at least six months of treatment. With regard to BRINSUPRI, we are not aware of any approved therapies for treating NCFB in the US, Europe or Japan, other than BRINSUPRI in the US and the EU.

The fields of gene therapy and protein engineering are rapidly advancing and highly competitive. While we believe our internal expertise provides a competitive advantage, we expect competition to intensify, including from other pharmaceutical companies, government agencies and public and private research institutions. If any of our gene therapy or protein engineering programs are approved for their indications, we expect to compete with other gene therapy products, protein engineering technologies and any other existing or new therapies or technologies that may become available in the future.

Government Regulation

Orphan Drug Designation

United States

Under the Orphan Drug Act (ODA), the FDA may grant orphan drug designation to drugs intended to treat a rare disease or condition, generally defined as a disease or condition that affects fewer than 200,000 people in the US or for which there is no reasonable expectation that the cost of developing and making available in the US a drug for such disease or condition will be recovered from US sales of such drug, if it meets certain criteria specified by the ODA and FDA. After the FDA grants orphan drug designation, FDA lists the drug and the designated rare disease in a publicly accessible database. The FDA designated liposomal amikacin as an orphan drug for treatment of NTM infections, bronchiectasis in patients with Pseudomonas aeruginosa or other susceptible microbial pathogens, and bronchopulmonary Pseudomonas aeruginosa infections in CF patients. However, the orphan drug designations for bronchiectasis in patients with Pseudomonas aeruginosa or other susceptible microbial pathogens and bronchopulmonary Pseudomonas aeruginosa infections in CF patients were withdrawn at our request in August 2023. The FDA granted INS1201 orphan drug designation in August 2025 for the treatment of DMD. In addition, in January 2026, FDA granted treprostinil palmitil orphan drug designation for the treatment of PAH, based on a plausible hypothesis that it may be clinically superior to treprostinil already approved for the treatment of the same indication.

Orphan drug designation qualifies the sponsor for various development incentives of the ODA, including tax credits for qualified clinical testing, a waiver of the PDUFA application fee (unless the application seeks approval for an indication not included in the orphan drug designation), and an exemption from pediatric study requirements under the Pediatric Equity Research Act (PREA) for the orphan indication. Orphan drug designation also may afford the company a period of exclusivity for the orphan indication upon approval of the drug. Specifically, an NDA or biologics license application (BLA) for a drug designated for a rare disease that receives FDA approval for an indication covered by the orphan designation is entitled to a seven-year exclusive marketing period, often referred to as orphan drug exclusivity, in the US for that drug in that indication. A product that has several separate orphan designations may have several separate exclusivities for separate orphan indications.

22

During the orphan drug exclusivity period, the FDA may not approve another sponsor's drug that is the same drug for the same approved indication or use, except in limited circumstances, such as a showing of clinical superiority to the product that has orphan drug exclusivity. Orphan drug exclusivity does not prevent the FDA from approving a different drug for the same disease or condition or the same drug for a different disease or condition, and it does not alter the timing or scope of the regulatory review and approval process; the sponsor must still demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of the drug.

In a decision issued in September 2021 (Catalyst Pharmaceuticals, Inc. v. Becerra), the US Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit held that the FDA had erred by limiting the scope of orphan drug exclusivity for FIRDAPSE® (amifampridine) to the product’s approved indication, an action that the FDA taken in accordance with its regulations interpreting the ODA. The court held that under the ODA, FIRDAPSE’s orphan drug exclusivity instead protected the broader rare disease or condition that received orphan drug designation. Notwithstanding the Eleventh Circuit’s decision in Catalyst, the FDA announced in January 2023 that it would continue to apply the FDA’s regulations tying the scope of orphan drug exclusivity to a product’s approved uses or indications. Since Catalyst, FDA’s interpretation has been subject to additional litigation, which is currently pending appeal. The Mikaela Naylon Give Kids a Chance Act, which amends the statute to reflect FDA’s longstanding interpretation, was signed into law on February 3, 2026.

European Union

The EC grants orphan drug designation to promote the development of drugs or biologics (1) for life-threatening or chronically debilitating conditions affecting not more than five in 10,000 people in the EU, or (2) for life threatening, seriously debilitating or serious and chronic condition in the EU where, without incentives, sales of the drug in the European Economic Area (the EU plus Iceland, Lichtenstein and Norway) (EEA) are unlikely to be sufficient to justify its development. Orphan drug designation is available either if no other satisfactory method of diagnosing, preventing or treating the condition is approved in the EEA or if such a method does exist but the proposed orphan drug will be of significant benefit to patients.

If a drug with an orphan drug designation subsequently receives an orphan drug marketing authorization from the EC for a therapeutic indication which is covered by such designation, the drug is entitled to orphan exclusivity. The EC has granted an orphan drug marketing authorization for ARIKAYCE for the treatment of NTM lung infections caused by MAC in adults with limited treatment options who do not have CF. Orphan exclusivity means that the EMA or a national medicines agency may not accept another application for authorization, or grant an authorization, for a same or similar drug for the same therapeutic indication. Competitors may receive such a marketing authorization despite orphan exclusivity, provided that they demonstrate that the existing orphan product is not supplied in sufficient quantities or that the 'second' drug or biologic is clinically superior to the existing orphan product. The 'second' drug may but need not have an orphan designation as well. The period of orphan exclusivity is 10 years, which can be extended by two years where an agreed pediatric investigation plan has been implemented. The exclusivity period may also be reduced to six years if the designation criteria are no longer met, including where it is shown that the product is sufficiently profitable not to justify maintenance of market exclusivity. Each orphan designated marketing authorization carries the potential for one market exclusivity for all the therapeutic indications that are covered by the designation. Market exclusivity is an orphan incentive awarded by the EC to a specific clinical indication with an orphan designation. Each indication with an orphan designation confers ten years of market exclusivity for the particular indication. A medicine that has multiple orphan designations for different conditions may benefit from separate market exclusivity periods pertaining to its different orphan designations.

Orphan drug designation also provides opportunities for free protocol assistance and fee reductions for access to the centralized regulatory procedure or fee exemptions for companies with a small and medium enterprises status. In addition, EU Member States may provide national benefits to orphan drugs, such as early access to the reimbursement procedure or exemption from any turnover tax imposed on pharmaceutical companies.

The orphan designation may be applied for at any time during the development of the drug but before the application for marketing authorization. At the time of marketing authorization, the criteria for orphan designation are examined again, and the EC decides on the maintenance of the orphan designation in granting an orphan drug marketing authorization. The non-maintenance of the orphan designation means that the drug loses its orphan status and thus no longer benefits from orphan exclusivity, fee reductions or exemptions, and national benefits.

Japan

The MHLW may, after hearing the opinion of the Pharmaceutical Affairs and Food Sanitation Council, grant orphan drug designation to a drug intended to treat a rare disease or condition if the drug meets the following conditions: (i) the number of target patients is less than 50,000 in Japan; (ii) the necessity of orphan drug designation is high from a medical point of view; and (iii) the plan for development of the drug is appropriate. Even if a drug is granted orphan drug designation, however, it does not always receive the manufacturing and marketing approval that is necessary for the drug to be sold or marketed in Japan. ARIKAYCE did not qualify for orphan drug designation in Japan due to the estimated number of NTM patients in Japan exceeding 50,000.

Rare Pediatric Disease Priority Review Voucher (PRV) Program

23

The FDA maintains a Rare Pediatric Disease PRV Program under Section 529 of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FDCA) to encourage the development of new drugs and biologics for the prevention or treatment of rare pediatric diseases. Under the program, a sponsor that obtains FDA approval of a marketing application for a product intended to treat such a disease may qualify for a PRV, which can be redeemed to obtain priority review of a subsequent marketing application for a different product or may be sold or transferred to another sponsor. A sponsor must meet certain procedural and substantive criteria, including obtaining rare pediatric disease designation from the FDA and satisfying eligibility requirements for the original product application in order to receive a voucher upon approval. The FDA granted INS1201 Rare Pediatric Disease Designation in May 2024. The Rare Pediatric Disease PRV program has historically been subject to statutory sunset provisions. The Mikaela Naylon Give Kids a Chance Act, which reauthorizes the program through 2029, was passed into law on February 3, 2026.

Drug Approval

United States

In the US, pharmaceutical products are subject to extensive regulation by the FDA and other government bodies. The US Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FDCA), the Public Health Services Act (PHSA) (in the case of biological products), and other federal and state statutes and regulations govern, among other things, the research, development, testing, manufacture, storage, recordkeeping, approval, labeling, promotion and marketing, distribution, post-approval monitoring and reporting, sampling and import and export of pharmaceutical products. Failure to comply with applicable US requirements at any time during product development, approval, or after approval may subject a company to a variety of administrative or judicial sanctions, such as imposition of clinical holds, FDA refusal to file or approve NDAs or BLAs, warning letters, product seizures, total or partial suspension of production or distribution, injunctions, fines, refusals of government contracts, restitution, disgorgement, civil penalties, and criminal prosecution. The description below summarizes the current approval process in the US for our product and product candidates.

Pre-clinical Studies

Pre-clinical studies may include laboratory evaluation of product chemistry, formulation and toxicity, and pharmacology, as well as animal trials to assess the characteristics and potential safety and efficacy of the product. The conduct of the pre-clinical tests must comply with federal regulations and requirements including the FDA's good laboratory practice (GLP) regulations and the US Department of Agriculture's regulations implementing the Animal Welfare Act. An IND sponsor must submit the results of the pre-clinical tests, together with manufacturing information, analytical data, any available clinical data or literature, and a proposed clinical trial protocol, among other things, to the FDA as part of an IND. Certain non-clinical tests, such as animal tests of reproductive toxicity and carcinogenicity, may continue even after the IND is submitted. An IND automatically becomes effective 30 days after receipt by the FDA, unless before that time the FDA raises concerns or questions related to one or more proposed clinical trials and places the clinical trial on a clinical hold. In such a case, the IND sponsor and the FDA must resolve any outstanding concerns before the clinical trial can begin. As a result, submission of an IND might not result in the FDA allowing clinical trials to commence.

Clinical Trials

Clinical trials involve the administration of the investigational new drug to human subjects (healthy volunteers or patients) under the supervision of a qualified investigator. Clinical trials must be conducted (i) in compliance with all applicable federal regulations and guidance, including those pertaining to good clinical practice (GCP) standards that are meant to protect the rights, safety, and welfare of human subjects and to define the roles of clinical trial sponsors, investigators, and monitors as well as (ii) under protocols detailing, among other things, the objectives of the trial, the parameters to be used in monitoring safety, and the effectiveness criteria to be evaluated. Each protocol involving testing of a new drug in the US (whether in patients or healthy volunteers) must be included as a submission to the IND, and the FDA must be notified of subsequent protocol amendments, including new protocols. In addition, the protocol must be reviewed and approved by an institutional review board (IRB), and all study subjects must provide informed consent. Typically, before any clinical trial, each institution participating in the trial will require review of the protocol before the trial commences at that institution. Progress reports detailing the results of the clinical trials must be submitted at least annually to the FDA and there are additional, more frequent reporting requirements for certain AEs.

A study sponsor might choose to discontinue a clinical trial or a clinical development program for a variety of reasons. The FDA may impose a temporary or permanent clinical hold, or other sanctions, if it believes that the clinical trial either is not being conducted in accordance with the FDA requirements or presents an unacceptable risk to the clinical trial subjects. An IRB also may require the clinical trial at the site to be halted, either temporarily or permanently, for failure to comply with the IRB's requirements, or may impose other conditions.

Clinical trials to support NDAs or BLAs for marketing approval are typically conducted in three sequential pre-approval phases, but the phases may overlap or be combined. In Phase 1, short term testing is conducted in a small group of

24

subjects (typically 20-100), who may be patients with the target disease or condition or healthy volunteers, to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects. In Phase 2, the drug is given to a larger group of subjects (typically up to several hundred) with the target condition to further evaluate its safety and gather preliminary evidence of efficacy. In Phase 3, the drug is given to a large group of subjects with the target disease or condition (typically several hundred to several thousand), often at multiple geographical sites, to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, and collect data to support drug approval. Only a small percentage of investigational drugs complete all three phases of development and obtain marketing approval.

If a clinical trial includes sites and study subjects outside the US, that portion of the trial may be included under an IND or not included under an IND. If the site and subjects are not included under an IND, then any use of the data in the US is subject to special FDA consideration of whether the foreign data has been generated in accordance with appropriate ethical and scientific standards and is applicable to a US patient population. Local legal and regulatory requirements will also apply to the ex-US sites and study subjects.

NDAs and BLAs

After completion of the required clinical testing, an NDA or BLA can be prepared and submitted to the FDA. FDA approval of the NDA or BLA is required before marketing of the product may begin in the US. The NDA or BLA is a large submission that must include, among other things, the results of all pre-clinical, clinical and other testing and a compilation of data relating to the product's pharmacology, chemistry, manufacture, and controls. The application also includes representative samples, copies of the proposed product labeling, patent information, and a financial certification or disclosure statement. The cost of preparing and submitting an NDA or BLA is substantial. Additionally, under federal law (as amended by the most recent reauthorization of the Prescription Drug User Fee Act (PDUFA VII) in the FDA User Fee Reauthorization Act of 2022), most NDAs and BLAs are subject to a substantial application fee and, upon approval, the applicant will be assessed an annual prescription drug program fee, both of which are adjusted annually. NDAs and BLAs for orphan drugs are not subject to an application fee, unless the application includes an indication other than an orphan-designated indication. The FDA also has the authority to grant waivers of certain user fees, pursuant to the FDCA.

The FDA has 60 days from its receipt of an NDA or BLA to determine to accept the application for filing or issue a refuse to file determination based on the FDA's threshold determination of whether the application is sufficiently complete to permit substantive review. Once the submission is accepted for filing, the FDA begins a substantive review. The FDA may refer applications for novel drug or biological products or drug or biological products that present difficult questions of safety or efficacy to an advisory committee, typically a panel that includes outside clinicians and other experts, for review, evaluation and a recommendation as to whether the application should be approved. The FDA is not bound by the recommendation of an advisory committee, but it generally has followed such recommendations.

Before approving an NDA or BLA, the FDA will typically inspect one or more clinical sites to assure compliance with GCP. Additionally, the FDA will typically inspect the facility or the facilities at which the drug or biological product is manufactured. The FDA will not approve the product unless, among other requirements, compliance with current good manufacturing practice (cGMP) is satisfactory and the NDA or BLA contains data that provide substantial evidence of effectiveness for the proposed indication, generally consisting of adequate and well-controlled clinical investigations, and that the drug is safe for use under the conditions of use in the proposed labeling. The FDA also reviews the proposed labeling submitted with the NDA or BLA and typically requires changes in the labeling text.

After the FDA evaluates the NDA or BLA and the manufacturing and testing facilities, it issues an action letter; that is, a complete response letter, an approval letter, or a tentative approval letter (in the case of, for example, certain types of NDAs referred to as 505(b)(2) NDAs that rely in whole or in part on other company’s approvals). Complete response letters generally outline the deficiencies in the submission and delineate the additional testing or information needed in order for the FDA to reconsider the application. If and when those deficiencies have been addressed to the FDA's satisfaction in a resubmission of the NDA or BLA, the FDA will issue an approval letter. An approval letter, which may specify post approval requirements, authorizes commercial marketing of the drug or biological product for the approved indication or indications and the other conditions of use set out in the approved prescribing information. Once granted, product approvals may be withdrawn if compliance with regulatory standards is not maintained or problems are identified following initial marketing. A tentative approval letter is notification that an NDA otherwise meets the requirements for approval but cannot be approved because of exclusivity or patent reasons. A drug product that is granted tentative approval is not an approved drug and will not be approved until FDA issues an approval letter after any necessary additional review of the NDA. The FDA sets a goal date by which the FDA expects to issue an action letter, unless the review period is adjusted by mutual agreement between the FDA and the applicant or as a result of the applicant submitting a major amendment. The FDA's current performance goals call for the FDA to complete review of 90 percent of standard new molecular entity (NME) NDAs and original BLAs within 10 months of the end of the 60-day filing review period and NME NDAs and original BLAs within six months of the end of the 60-day filing review period. The FDA's current performance goals call for the FDA to complete review of 90 percent of standard non-NME) NDAs within 10 months of receipt and non-NME NDAs within 6 months of receipt.

25

As a condition of NDA or BLA approval, the FDA may require substantial post-approval testing, known as Phase 4 studies, to be conducted in order to gather additional information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects. Beyond routine post marketing safety surveillance, the FDA may require specific additional surveillance to monitor the drug's safety or efficacy and may impose other conditions, including labeling restrictions that can materially affect the potential market and profitability of the drug. As a condition of approval, or after approval, the FDA also may require submission, approval, and implementation of a risk evaluation and mitigation strategy (REMS), including a REMS with elements to assure safe use (ETASU) to mitigate any identified or suspected serious risks. The REMS may include medication guides, physician communication plans, assessment plans, and ETASU, such as restricted distribution methods, patient registries, or other risk minimization tools. Further post-approval requirements are discussed below.

Expedited Review and Approval of Eligible Drugs

Under the FDA's accelerated approval program, the FDA may approve certain drugs for serious or life-threatening conditions on the basis of a surrogate or intermediate endpoint that is reasonably likely to predict clinical benefit, which can substantially reduce time to approval. A surrogate endpoint used for accelerated approval is a marker—a laboratory measurement, radiographic image, physical sign or other measure that is thought to predict clinical benefit, but is not itself a measure of clinical benefit. An intermediate clinical endpoint is a clinical endpoint that can be measured earlier than irreversible morbidity and mortality (IMM) that is reasonably likely to predict an effect on IMM or other clinical benefit. The FDA bases its decision on whether to accept the proposed surrogate or intermediate clinical endpoint on the scientific support for that endpoint.

As a condition of accelerated approval, the FDA typically requires certain post-marketing clinical studies to verify and describe clinical benefit of the product, and may impose restrictions on distribution to assure safe use. Under the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2023, Congress gave FDA the authority to require, as appropriate, that a confirmatory trial be underway prior to accelerated approval or within a specified time period after the date of accelerated approval. In addition, promotional materials for an accelerated approval drug to be used in the first 120 days post-approval must be submitted to the FDA prior to approval, and materials to be used after that 120-day period must be submitted 30 days prior to first use. If the required post-marketing studies fail to verify the clinical benefit of the drug, or if the applicant fails to perform the required post-marketing studies with due diligence, the FDA may withdraw approval of the drug under streamlined procedures in accordance with the FDCA, as amended by the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2023. The agency may also withdraw approval of a drug if, among other things, the promotional materials for the product are false or misleading, or other evidence demonstrates that the drug product is not shown to be safe or effective under its conditions of use.

The FDA also has various programs—fast track designation, priority review and breakthrough designation—that are intended to expedite or streamline the process for the development and FDA review of drugs that meet certain qualifications. The purpose of these programs is to provide important new drugs to patients earlier than under standard FDA review procedures. The programs each have different eligibility criteria and provide different benefits, and can be applied either alone or in combination depending on an applicant's circumstances.

Fast track designation applies to a drug that is intended to treat a serious condition and for which nonclinical or clinical data demonstrate the potential to address unmet medical need. It should be requested at the time of IND submission or ideally no later than the pre-NDA or pre-BLA meeting. The FDA must respond to requests for fast track designation within 60 days of receipt of the request. If granted, the applicant is eligible for actions to expedite development and review, such as frequent interaction with the review team, as well as rolling review, meaning that the applicant may submit sections of the application as they are available. The timing of the FDA's review of these sections depends on a number of factors, and the review clock does not start running until the agency has received a complete NDA or BLA submission. The FDA may withdraw fast track designation if the agency determines that the designation is no longer supported by data emerging in the drug development process.

Priority review applies to an application (both original and efficacy supplement) for a drug that treats a serious condition and that, if approved, would provide a significant improvement in safety or effectiveness. It also applies to any supplement that proposes a labeling change pursuant to a report on a pediatric study conducted pursuant to section 505A of the FDCA. A request for priority review is submitted at the time of submission of an NDA or BLA, or supplemental NDA or BLA. The FDA must respond within 60 days of receipt of the request. If granted, the review time is shortened from the standard 10 months to 6 months, beginning either after the 60-day filing review period (in the case of NME NDA and original BLA submissions) or the date of receipt (in the case of non-NME original NDA submissions).

Breakthrough therapy designation applies to a drug that is intended to treat a serious condition and for which preliminary clinical evidence indicates that the drug may demonstrate substantial improvement on a clinically significant endpoint(s) over available therapies. It can be requested with the IND submission and ideally no later than the end-of-Phase 2 meeting. The FDA must respond within 60 days of receipt of the request. If granted, the applicant receives intensive guidance on efficient drug development, intensive involvement of senior managers and experienced review and regulatory health project

26

management staff in a proactive, collaborative, cross-disciplinary review, rolling review, and other actions to expedite review. Designation may be rescinded if the product no longer meets the criteria for breakthrough therapy designation.

Drugs that are designated as QIDPs may be eligible for priority review and will receive fast track designation upon the request of the sponsor, and also may be eligible for market exclusivity. A product is eligible for QIDP designation if it is an antibacterial or anti-fungal drug for human use that is intended to treat serious or life-threatening infections, including: those caused by an anti-bacterial or anti-fungal resistant pathogen, including novel or emerging infectious pathogens; or caused by qualifying pathogens listed by the FDA. A drug sponsor may request that the FDA designate its product as a QIDP at any time prior to NDA submission.

Additionally, the FDA may approve eligible drugs under the LPAD. A product is eligible if it is intended to treat a serious or life-threatening infection in a limited population of patients with unmet needs, the drug otherwise meets the standards of approval, and the FDA receives a written request from the sponsor to approve the drug under this pathway. An antibacterial or anti-fungal drug approved through this pathway may follow a streamlined clinical development program involving smaller, shorter, or fewer clinical trials. Approval is based on a benefit-risk assessment in the intended limited population, taking into account the severity, rarity, or prevalence of the infection the drug is intended to treat and the availability or lack of alternative treatment for the patient population. Such drugs might not have favorable benefit-risk profiles in a broader population. Drugs approved under LPAD are subject to additional regulatory requirements, including labeling and advertising statements regarding the limited population and submission of promotional materials to the FDA at least 30 days prior to dissemination. The FDA may remove these additional requirements if the agency approves the drug for a broader population.

The FDA’s Regenerative Medicine Advanced Therapy (RMAT) designation program, established under the 21st Century Cures Act, is intended to facilitate the development and expedite the review of certain regenerative medicine therapies, including cell therapies, gene therapies, therapeutic tissue engineering products, and combination products, that are intended to treat, modify, reverse, or cure a serious or life-threatening disease or condition and for which preliminary clinical evidence indicates the potential to address unmet medical needs. A product granted RMAT designation may be eligible for increased interactions with the FDA, including early discussions on clinical development, surrogate or intermediate endpoints, and potential accelerated approval pathways. However, RMAT designation does not change the standards for FDA approval, does not guarantee expedited review or approval, and the FDA may withdraw such designation if the product no longer meets the qualifying criteria.

Patent Term Extension and Non-Patent Exclusivities

In the US, after NDA or BLA approval of a drug containing an active ingredient that has not been previously approved, owners of relevant patents covering the drug or methods of manufacturing or using the drug may obtain up to a five-year patent term extension on a single patent. The allowable patent term extension is generally calculated as half of the drug's testing phase (the time between the date the IND becomes effective and the NDA or BLA submission date) and all of the review phase (the time between the NDA or BLA submission date and the approval date) up to a maximum of five years, to the extent such testing phase and approval phase occur after the issue date of the patent. The total post-NDA or BLA approval patent term including the extension may not exceed 14 years. The extension also can be shortened if the FDA determines that the NDA/BLA applicant did not pursue approval with due diligence. For patents that might expire while a patent term extension application is pending, the patent owner may request an interim patent term extension. The Director of the USPTO shall extend, until a final determination is made, the term of the patent for periods of up to one year if the Director determines that the patent is eligible for extension. An interim patent term extension may be renewed up to four times until a final determination is made, but only up to the amount of time for which the patent might be eligible for extension. Interim patent extensions may also be available for a patent that will expire before a drug is expected to be approved, but the NDA or BLA for the drug must have been submitted.

A variety of non-patent exclusivity periods are available under the FDCA that can delay the submission or approval of certain applications for competing products.

A five-year period of non-patent exclusivity within the US is granted to a new chemical entity (NCE). An NCE is a drug that contains no active moiety that has been approved by the FDA in any other application submitted under section 505(b) of the FDCA. During the exclusivity period for an NCE, the FDA may not accept for review an abbreviated NDA (ANDA) or a 505(b)(2) NDA submitted by another company that contains the same active moiety. However, an ANDA or 505(b)(2) NDA may be submitted after four years if it contains a certification of patent invalidity or non-infringement with respect to a patent listed with the FDA for the NCE drug.

A three-year period of non-patent exclusivity is granted for a drug product that contains an active moiety that has been previously approved, when the application contains reports of new clinical investigations (other than bioavailability studies) conducted or sponsored by the applicant that were essential to approval of the application, for example, for new indications, dosages, strengths or dosage forms of an existing drug. This three-year exclusivity covers only the conditions of approval associated with the new clinical investigations that are considered innovative, which means that the FDA may approve ANDAs and 505(b)(2) NDAs for other non-protected uses. Where this form of exclusivity applies, it prevents FDA approval of an

27

ANDA or 505(b)(2) NDA containing the same active moiety or combination of active moieties for the same conditions of approval for the three-year period; however, the FDA may accept and review ANDAs or 505(b)(2) NDAs during the three-year period.

These exclusivities also do not preclude FDA from accepting or approving a 505(b)(1) NDA.

Products with QIDP designation may receive a five-year extension of other non-patent exclusivities for which the drug is also eligible, subject to certain limitations. Depending upon the scope of the non-patent exclusivity that is extended, the five-year extension might not prevent the FDA from approving a subsequent application for a change to the QIDP-designated drug that results in, for example, a new indication, route of administration, dosing, schedule, dosage form, delivery system, delivery device, or strength. A drug that has been designated as both an orphan drug and a QIDP for the same indication, like ARIKAYCE, might be eligible for a combined 12 years of exclusivity for that indication.

Under the PHSA, the FDA recognizes reference product exclusivity starting from the first licensure of a biological product. Reference product exclusivity affects the timing of submission and approval of a BLA for a biosimilar product. Under section 351(k) of the PHSA, a BLA for a biosimilar product may be approved based upon a showing that the proposed product is highly similar to a previously licensed product, known as the reference product, notwithstanding minor differences in clinically inactive components; and there are no clinically meaningful differences between the proposed biosimilar product and the reference product in terms of safety, purity, and potency. Reference product exclusivity prevents the FDA from accepting a BLA submitted under section 351(k) of the PHSA for a proposed biosimilar product for 4 years after the date of first licensure of the reference product, and prevents the FDA from approving such BLA for a proposed biosimilar product for 12 years after such date of first licensure. An additional period of reference product exclusivity is not available upon approval of a supplemental BLA. Moreover, the PHSA limits the availability of reference product exclusivity for a subsequent BLA filed by the same sponsor or manufacturer of a biological product (or a licensor, predecessor in interest, or other related entity).

Certain periods of regulatory exclusivity are also available based on pediatric testing requested by FDA, as discussed below.

Medical Device Regulation

Medical devices, such as Lamira, may be marketed as stand-alone devices, or in some cases, as constituent parts of a drug/device combination product. In either case, the product will need to satisfy and comply with FDA requirements. Unless an exemption applies, each medical device commercially distributed in the US requires either FDA clearance of a 510(k) premarket notification, approval of a premarket approval application (PMA), or issuance of a de novo classification order. Medical devices are classified into one of three classes -- Class I, Class II or Class III -- depending on the degree of risk and the level of control necessary to assure the safety and effectiveness of each medical device. Medical devices deemed to pose lower risks are generally placed in either Class I or II.

While most Class I devices are exempt from the 510(k) premarket notification requirement, manufacturers of most Class II devices are required to submit to the FDA a pre-market notification. The FDA’s permission to commercially distribute a device subject to a 510(k) premarket notification is generally known as 510(k) clearance. Devices deemed by the FDA to pose the greatest risk, such as life-sustaining, life-supporting, or many implantable devices, or devices that have been found not substantially equivalent to a legally marketed Class I or Class II predicate device, are placed in Class III, requiring approval of a PMA. De novo classification is a risk-based classification process to classify novel medical devices into Class I or Class II and authorize the device for commercial distribution.

Medical devices are also subject to certain postmarket requirements. Those requirements include, for example, establishment registration and device listing; compliance with the requirements of the Quality Management System Regulation (QMSR); medical device reporting regulations; correction and removal reporting regulations; compliance with requirements for Unique Device Identification; and, in certain cases, post-market surveillance activities and obligations. Device manufacturers must also comply with FDA requirements regarding promotion, which require that promotion is truthful, not misleading, and that all claims are substantiated, and prohibit the promotion of products for unapproved or “off-label” uses.

Medical device manufacturers must demonstrate and maintain compliance with the FDA’s QSR. The QSR is a complex regulatory scheme that covers the methods and documentation of the design, testing, control, manufacturing, labeling, quality assurance, packaging, storage and shipping of medical devices. The FDA enforces the QSR through periodic inspections and unannounced “for cause” inspections. In January 2024, the FDA issued a final rule amending the QSR to align more closely with the international consensus standard for Quality Management Systems for medical devices used by many other regulatory authorities around the world, ISO 13485:2016. The revised regulation is referred to as the QMSR and became effective on February 2, 2026. The FDA made conforming edits to the combination product regulation to clarify the device Quality Management System (QMS) requirements for combination products.

The FDCA permits medical devices intended for investigational use to be shipped to clinical sites if such devices comply with prescribed procedures and conditions. All clinical investigations of devices to determine safety and effectiveness

28

must be conducted in accordance with the FDA’s investigational device exemption, or IDE, regulations that govern investigational device labeling, prohibit promotion of the investigational device, and specify an array of study review and approval, informed consent, recordkeeping, reporting and monitoring responsibilities of study sponsors and study investigators.

Failure to comply with applicable regulations could result in enforcement actions such as: warning letters; fines; injunctions; civil penalties; inability to distribute products; recalls or seizures of products; delays in the introduction of products into the market; total or partial suspension of production; FDA refusal to grant, or delay in obtaining, marketing authorizations; and in the most serious cases, criminal penalties.

Combination Products

A combination product is a product comprising two or more regulated components (e.g., a drug and device) that are combined into a single product, co-packaged, or sold separately but intended only for use with each other, as evidenced by the labeling for the products. Drugs that are administered using a nebulizer or another device (and either co-packaged with the nebulizer or cross-labeled for use with a specific nebulizer), such as ARIKAYCE or TPIP, are examples of drug/device combination products.

The FDA is divided into various Centers, which each have authority over a specific type of product. NDAs are reviewed by personnel within the Center for Drug Evaluation and Research, while device PMAs, premarket notifications, and de novo classification requests are reviewed by the Center for Devices and Radiological Health. Combination products, such as drug/device combinations, are typically reviewed through a marketing submission that corresponds to the constituent part which provides the product's primary mode of action (PMOA), i.e., is the single mode of action that makes the greatest contribution to the overall therapeutic effect of the combination product. If the PMOA is unclear or in dispute, a sponsor may file a Request for Designation with the FDA’s Office of Combination Products (OCP), which will render a determination and assign a lead Center based on the product's PMOA. If it is not possible to determine which one mode of action will provide a greater contribution than any other mode of action to the overall therapeutic effects of the combination product, the FDA makes a determination as to which Center to assign the product based on consistency with other combination products raising similar types of safety and effectiveness questions. When there are no other combination products that present similar questions of safety and effectiveness with regard to the combination product as a whole, the agency will assign the combination product to the Center with the most expertise in evaluating the most significant safety and effectiveness questions raised by the combination product. For combination products comprised of a drug and delivery device, the PMOA is typically that of the drug and the Center for Drug Evaluation and Research is assigned primary jurisdiction.

When evaluating an application or other marketing submission for a combination product, a lead Center may consult other Centers that will review relevant sections of the application. Depending on the type of combination product, approval or clearance could be obtained through submission of a single marketing application or through separate applications for the individual constituent parts (e.g., an NDA for the drug and a premarket notification for the device). The FDCA directs the FDA to conduct a review of a combination product under a single marketing application whenever appropriate. Applicants may choose to submit separate applications for constituent parts of a combination product (unless the FDA determines one application is necessary), and in limited situations, the FDA may determine an application for each constituent part is warranted. One reason to submit multiple applications is if the applicant wishes to receive some benefit that accrues only from approval under a particular type of application, like new drug product exclusivity. If multiple applications are submitted, each application is generally reviewed by the Center with authority over each application type. For combination products that contain an approved constituent part (such as a drug-device combination product in which the device has previously received clearance), the FDA may require that the application(s) include only such information as is necessary to meet the standard for clearance or approval, using a risk-based approach and taking into account any prior finding of safety or effectiveness for the approved constituent part.

Like their constituent products—e.g., drugs and devices—combination products are highly regulated and subject to a broad range of post marketing requirements including cGMP, adverse event reporting, periodic reports, labeling and advertising and promotion requirements and restrictions. Failure to comply with applicable requirements could result in enforcement actions.

Disclosure of Clinical Trial Information

Under US and certain foreign laws intended to improve clinical trial transparency, sponsors of clinical trials are required to register and disclose certain information about their clinical trials. This can include information related to the investigational drug, patient population, phase of investigation, study sites and investigators, and other aspects of the clinical trial. This information is then made publicly available. In the US, this information appears on ClinicalTrials.gov. Under US regulations, sponsors are obligated to disclose the results of these trials after completion. In the US, disclosure of the results of these trials can be delayed for up to two years if the sponsor is seeking initial approval of the product or approval of a new indication. Competitors may use this publicly available information to gain knowledge regarding the progress of development programs.

29

Other Post-approval Regulatory Requirements

Once an NDA or BLA is approved, a product will be subject to certain post-approval requirements, including those relating to advertising, promotion, adverse event reporting, recordkeeping, and cGMP, as well as registration, listing, and inspection. There also are continuing, annual user fee requirements.

The FDA regulates the content and format of prescription drug labeling, advertising, and promotion, including direct-to-consumer advertising and promotional Internet communications. The FDA also establishes parameters for permissible non-promotional communications between industry and the medical community, including industry-supported scientific and educational activities. The FDA and other agencies actively enforce the laws and regulations prohibiting the promotion for uses not consistent with the approved labeling, and a company that is found to have improperly promoted off-label uses or otherwise not to have met applicable promotion rules may be subject to significant liability under the FDCA, the PHSA, and other statutes, including the False Claims Act.

Manufacturers are subject to requirements for adverse event reporting and submission of periodic reports following FDA approval of an NDA or BLA.

All aspects of pharmaceutical manufacture must conform to cGMP after approval. Drug manufacturers and certain of their subcontractors are required to register their establishments with the FDA and certain state agencies, and are subject to periodic unannounced inspections by the FDA during which the FDA inspects manufacturing facilities to assess compliance with cGMP. Changes to the manufacturing process are strictly regulated and often require prior FDA approval before being implemented. FDA regulations also require investigation and correction of any deviations from cGMP and impose reporting and documentation requirements upon the sponsor and any third-party manufacturers that the sponsor may decide to use. Accordingly, manufacturers must continue to expend time, money and effort in the areas of production and quality control to maintain compliance with cGMP.

Drugs may be marketed only for the approved indications and in accordance with the provisions of the approved labeling. Changes to some of the conditions established in an approved application, including changes in indications, labeling, product formulation, or manufacturing processes or facilities, require submission and FDA approval of a new NDA or BLA or NDA or BLA supplement, in some cases before the change may be implemented. An NDA or BLA supplement for a new indication typically requires clinical data similar to that in the original application, and the FDA uses the same procedures and actions in reviewing NDA supplements as it does in reviewing NDAs or BLAs.

As previously mentioned, the FDA also may require Phase 4 studies and may require a REMS, which could restrict the distribution or use of the product.

In addition, the distribution of prescription pharmaceutical products is subject to the Prescription Drug Marketing Act (PDMA), which regulates the distribution of drugs and drug samples at the federal level, and sets minimum standards for the registration and regulation of drug distributors by the states. Both the PDMA and state laws limit the distribution of prescription pharmaceutical product samples and impose requirements to ensure accountability in distribution. The Drug Supply Chain Security Act (DSCSA) was enacted with the aim of building an electronic system to identify and trace certain prescription drugs distributed in the US. The DSCSA mandates phased-in and resource-intensive obligations for pharmaceutical manufacturers, wholesale distributors and dispensers over a 10-year period. FDA has exercised enforcement discretion and issued phased compliance policies to implement the law.

European Union

Marketing Authorization Application

To obtain approval of a drug under the EU regulatory system, an application for a marketing authorization may be submitted under a centralized, a decentralized or a national procedure. The centralized procedure, which is compulsory for medicines produced by certain biotechnological processes or for orphan drugs, provides for the grant of a single marketing authorization that is valid for all EU member states, which grants the same rights and obligations in each member state as a national marketing authorization. As a general rule, only one marketing authorization may be granted for drugs approved through the centralized procedure and the marketing authorization is also relevant for the EEA countries.

Under the centralized procedure, the Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) is required to adopt an opinion on a valid application within 210 days, excluding clock stops when additional information is to be provided by the applicant in response to questions. More specifically, on day 80 of the procedure, the Rapporteur and Co-Rapporteur generate their draft assessment report. This is followed at day 120 by issuing to the applicant their formal report and a list questions. Applicants then have up to three months to respond to the questions (and can request a three-month extension). The Rapporteur, Co-Rapporteur and CHMP assess the applicant's replies and at day 150 generate their Joint Assessment Report. At day 180, the Joint Assessment Report along with a list of outstanding issues for unresolved matters (as needed) is provided to the applicant. Applicants then have one month to respond to the CHMP (and can request a one or two-month extension). At day 180 the

30

CHMP can also request the involvement of a Scientific Advisory Group (SAG), where the applicant is given the opportunity to present data supporting the application and addressing the specific questions addressed by the CHMP to the SAG. If the outstanding issues remain, an oral explanation may be requested by the EMA, where the applicant must attend the CHMP plenary session and address the Major Objections related to approval of the marketing authorization application (MAA). The CHMP members can then question the applicant on the key issues. At day 210, once its scientific evaluation is completed, the CHMP gives a favorable or unfavorable opinion as to whether to grant the marketing authorization. After the adoption of the CHMP opinion, a decision must be adopted by the EC, after consulting the Standing Committee of the Member States. The EC prepares a draft decision and circulates it to the member states; if the draft decision differs from the CHMP opinion, the Commission must provide detailed explanations. The EC adopts a decision within 15 days of the end of the consultation procedure.

Accelerated Procedure, Conditional Approval and Approval Under Exceptional Circumstances

Various programs, including accelerated assessment, conditional approval and approval under exceptional circumstances, are intended to expedite or simplify the approval of drugs that meet certain qualifications. The purpose of these programs is to provide important new drugs to patients earlier than under standard approval procedures.

For drugs which are of major interest from the point of view of public health, in particular from the viewpoint of therapeutic innovation, applicants may submit a substantiated request for accelerated assessment. If the CHMP accepts the request, the review time is reduced from 210 to 150 days.

Furthermore, for certain categories of medicinal products, marketing authorizations may be granted on the basis of less complete data than is normally required in order to meet unmet medical needs of patients or in the interest of public health. In such cases, the company may request, or the CHMP may recommend, the granting of a marketing authorization, subject to certain specific obligations; such marketing authorization may be conditional or under exceptional circumstances. The timelines for the centralized procedure described above also apply with respect to applications for a conditional marketing authorization or marketing authorization under exceptional circumstances.

Conditional marketing authorizations may be granted for products designated as orphan medicinal products, if all of the following conditions are met: (1) the risk-benefit balance of the product is positive, (2) the applicant will likely be in a position to provide the required comprehensive clinical trial data, (3) the product fulfills unmet medical needs, and (4) the benefit to public health of the immediate availability on the market of the medicinal product concerned outweighs the risk inherent in the fact that additional data are still required.

Conditional marketing authorizations are valid for one year, on a renewable basis until the holder provides a comprehensive data package. The granting of conditional marketing authorization depends on the applicant's ability to fulfill the conditions imposed within the agreed upon deadline. They are subject to "conditions", i.e., the holder is required to complete ongoing studies or to conduct new studies with a view to confirming that the benefit-risk balance is positive or to fulfill specific obligations in relation to pharmacovigilance. Once the holder has provided a comprehensive data package, the conditional marketing authorization is replaced by a 'regular' marketing authorization.

Marketing authorizations under exceptional circumstances may be granted where the applicant demonstrates that, for objective and verifiable reasons, they are unable to provide comprehensive data on the efficacy and safety of the drug under normal conditions of use. Such marketing authorizations are subject to certain conditions, in particular relating to safety of the drug, notification of incidents relating to its use or actions to be taken. They are valid for an indefinite period of time, but the conditions upon which they are based are subject to an annual reassessment in order to ensure that the risk-benefit balance remains positive.

Exclusivities

If an approved drug contains a new active substance, it is protected by data exclusivity for eight years from the notification of the Commission decision granting the marketing authorization and then by marketing protection for an additional two or three years. Overall, the drug is protected for ten or eleven years against generic competition, and no additional exclusivity protection is granted for any new development of the active substance it contains.

During the eight-year period of data exclusivity, competitors may not refer to the marketing authorization dossier of the approved drug for regulatory purposes. During the period of marketing protection, competitors may not market their generic drugs. The period of marketing protection is normally two years but may become three years if, during the eight-year data exclusivity period, a new therapeutic indication is approved that is considered as bringing a significant clinical benefit over existing therapies.

Medical Devices Regulations

In May 2017, the EU adopted a new Medical Devices Regulation (EU) 2017/745 (MDR), which repealed and replaced Directive 93/42/EEC on Medical Devices (Directive 93/42) on May 26, 2021. The MDR and its associated guidance documents

31

and harmonized standards, govern, among other things, device design and development, pre-clinical and clinical or performance testing, premarket conformity assessment, registration and listing, manufacturing, labeling, storage, claims, sales and distribution, export and import and post-market surveillance, vigilance, and market surveillance.

As of May 26, 2021, before a device can be placed on the market in the EU, compliance with the MDR requirements (i.e., the General Safety and Performance Requirements, or GSPRs, set out in Annex I of the MDR) must be demonstrated in order to affix the Conformité Européene mark, or CE Mark, to the product. The MDR provides recourse to harmonized European standards in order to facilitate compliance with the GSPRs. Harmonized standards provide a presumption of conformity with the GSPRs (although there are a limited number of standards harmonized currently). However, under transitional provisions provided for in the MDR, medical devices with Notified Body certificates issued under Directive 93/42 prior to May 26, 2021 may continue to be placed on the market for the remaining validity of the certificate, until December 31, 2027 at the latest for higher risk medical devices and until December 31, 2028 for other medical devices, in each case, so long as there is no significant changes in the design or intended purpose. After the expiry of any applicable transitional period, only devices that have been CE marked under the MDR may be placed on the market in the EU.

To demonstrate compliance with these requirements, a conformity assessment procedure is required. The MDR provides for several conformity assessment procedures, which depends on the type of medical device and the risks involved. Devices are divided in four groups based on risk: Class I, Class IIa, Class IIb, and Class III. Class I devices present the lowest level of risk so that, for most of these devices (other than those that are sterile and/or have measuring functionality) the manufacturer can self-certify the product plus affix the CE mark. For the other classes, the conformity assessment is carried out by an organization designated and supervised by a member state of the EEA to conduct conformity assessments, known as a Notified Body. The manufacturer initially classifies every device. However, when a device undergoes a conformity assessment with a Notified Body, the Notified Body may dispute the classification and assert that the device should be included in a class requiring stricter conformity assessment procedures. Specific rules apply to custom-made medical devices, medical devices that are used in clinical trials, and medical devices that incorporate a medicinal ingredient.

For classes of devices other than Class I, the Notified Body carries out the conformity assessment and issues a certificate of conformity, which entitles the manufacturer to affix the CE mark to its devices after having prepared and signed a related EU Declaration of Conformity. Affixing a CE mark allows the product to move freely within the EU and thus prevents EU Member States from restricting sales and marketing of the devices, unless such measure is justified on the basis of evidence of non-compliance. Ultimately, the manufacturer is responsible for the conformity of the device with the GSPRs and for the affixing of the CE mark. Lamira is CE marked by PARI, i.e., its manufacturer, in the EU.

Clinical evidence is required for most medium and high risk devices. In some cases, a clinical study may be required to support a CE marking application. A manufacturer that wishes to conduct a clinical study involving the device is subject to the clinical investigation requirements of the MDR, EU member state requirements, and current good clinical practices defined in harmonized standards and guidance documents.

After a device is placed on the market, it remains subject to significant regulatory requirements. The MDR prohibits misleading claims about devices and so devices may be marketed only for the uses and indications for which they are approved (although more detailed rules on marketing may be contained in national legislation). For CE marked devices, certain modifications to the device or quality system depending on the conformity assessment procedure used must be submitted to and approved by the Notified Body before placing the modified device on the market.

Economic Operators, include device manufactures, must register their establishments and devices in the EUDAMED database once available. Manufacturers of medical devices are subject to vigilance obligations that require reporting of incidents and are required to implement a post-marketing surveillance system (for monitoring data about the device and confirming the benefits of the device outweigh the risks). The vigilance obligations require that manufacturers must report serious incidents involving the device made available in the EU and any field safety corrective actions in respect of the device made available in the EU (including actions taken outside the EU) to relevant competent authorities. In addition, Notified Bodies regularly reassess the conformity of a medical device to the GSPRs and may from time to time audit the manufacturer and may, where needed, suspend or withdraw the manufacturer's certificate of conformity.

Japan

Under the Japanese regulatory system administered by the MHLW and the PMDA (which is responsible for product review and evaluations under the supervision of the MHLW), in principle, pre-marketing approval and clinical studies are required for all pharmaceutical products. The Law on Securing Quality, Efficacy and Safety of Products Including Pharmaceuticals and Medical Devices (Act No. 145 of 1960) requires a license for marketing authorization when importing to Japan and selling pharmaceutical products manufactured in other countries, a holder of such license is referred to as a marketing authorization holder. It also requires a foreign manufacturer to get each of its manufacturing sites certified as a manufacturing site of pharmaceutical products to be marketed in Japan. To receive a license for marketing authorization, the manufacturer or seller must, at the very least, employ certain manufacturing marketing, quality and safety personnel. A license for marketing

32

authorization may not be granted if the quality management methods and post marketing safety management methods applied with respect to the pharmaceutical product fail to conform to the standards stipulated in the ordinances promulgated by the MHLW. To obtain manufacturing/marketing approval for a new product, a Company must submit an application for approval to the MHLW with results of CMC, nonclinical and clinical studies to show the quality, efficacy and safety of the product candidate. A data compliance review, on-site inspection for good clinical practice, audit and detailed data review for compliance with current good manufacturing practices are undertaken by the PMDA. The application is then discussed by the committees of the Pharmaceutical Affairs and Food Sanitation Council. Based on the results of these reviews, the final decision on approval is made by the MHLW. The time required for the approval process varies depending on the product. PMDA's target review period (submission to approval) is twelve months (standard review) and nine months (priority review), although this is not a commitment. The product also needs approval for pricing in order to be eligible for reimbursement under Japan's National Health Insurance system. The medical products which, once they are approved and marketed, are subject to the continuing standards of Good Manufacturing Practice and Good Quality Practice and are also subject to regular post-marketing vigilance of safety and quality under the standards of Good Vigilance Practice and Good Post-marketing Study Practice. In Japan, the National Health Insurance system maintains a Drug Price List specifying which pharmaceutical products are eligible for reimbursement, and the MHLW sets the prices of the products on this list. After receipt of marketing approval, negotiations regarding the reimbursement price with the MHLW would begin. Price would be determined within 60 to 90 days following receipt of marketing approval unless the applicant disagrees, which may result in extended pricing negotiations. The government is currently introducing price cut rounds every year and mandates price decreases for specific products. New products judged innovative or useful, that are indicated for pediatric use, or that target orphan or small population diseases, however, may be eligible for a pricing premium. Price revisions after product launch based on Health Technology Assessment (HTA) and Cost-Effectiveness Analysis (CEA) were introduced in 2019. Products meeting the relevant criteria may have their prices adjusted according to the outcomes of the HTA/CEA evaluation. Additionally, certain rules for post-launch price reductions, such as Repricing for Market Expansion, are also applied. The government has also promoted the use of generics, where available.

Pediatric Information

United States

Under the PREA, as amended, certain NDAs, BLAs, and supplements must contain pediatric assessments, which are reports containing data to assess the safety and effectiveness of the drug for the claimed indications in all relevant pediatric subpopulations and to support dosing and administration for each pediatric subpopulation for which the drug is safe and effective. The FDA may, on its own initiative or at the request of an applicant, grant deferrals for submission of such assessments or full or partial waivers. Unless otherwise required by regulation, and subject to an exception for certain oncology drugs, PREA does not apply to any drug for an indication for which orphan designation has been granted.

Under the Best Pharmaceuticals for Children Act (BPCA), pediatric research is incentivized by the possibility of six months of pediatric exclusivity. For non-biological drugs, if pediatric exclusivity is granted, it attaches to existing statutory and patent-based exclusivity periods listed for the applicable drug in the FDA's Orange Book at the time the FDA determines that the sponsor, among other things, fairly responded to the FDA's "written request" for pediatric research, provided that the FDA makes such determination at least nine months before the expiration of such exclusivity period. For biological products, pediatric exclusivity does not attach to patents; it only attaches to exclusivities listed in FDA’s Purple Book at the time FDA makes its pediatric exclusivity determination (provided FDA makes that determination at least nine months before expiration of such exclusivity). Sponsors may seek to obtain a written request by submitting a proposed pediatric study request to the FDA. While the sponsor of an orphan-designated drug may not be required to perform pediatric studies under PREA unless one of the above exceptions applies, they are eligible to participate in the incentives under the BPCA if the FDA issues a written request.

European Union

In the EU, new drugs (i.e., drugs containing a new active substance) for adults must also be tested in children. This can also include pediatric pharmaceutical forms, in all subsets of the pediatric population. The mandatory pediatric testing is carried out through the implementation of a pediatric investigation plan (PIP), which is proposed by the applicant and approved by the EMA. A PIP contains all the studies to be conducted and measures to be taken in order to support the approval of the new drug, including pediatric pharmaceutical forms, in all subsets of the pediatric population. Implementation of a PIP is a prerequisite to validation of an MAA. Following granting of the marketing authorization, post approval compliance is also reviewed through the life cycle of the product until the PIP is completed. A PIP may allow for one or more waivers or deferral for one or more of the studies or measures included therein in order not to delay the approval of the drug in adults, and, on another hand, the EMA may grant either a product-specific waiver for the (adult) disease/condition or one or more pediatric subsets or a class waiver for the disease/condition. PIPs are subject to potential modifications from time to time, when they no longer are workable, if approved by EMA. Any new indication as a variation to an existing marketing authorization requires a new PIP for that indication. In the case of orphan medicinal products, completion of an approved PIP can result in an extension of the market exclusivity period from ten to twelve years. To benefit from the additional exclusivity the PIP must be completed and content from the PIP must be included in the approved summary of product characteristics.

Japan

In Japan, there is no statutory rule which imposes any different obligation on pharmaceutical manufacturers engaging in pediatric drug development than on other pharmaceutical manufacturers. However, the guidelines of the MHLW (Handling of Pharmaceuticals during the Reexamination Interval Period (Issue No. 107, February 1, 1999) and Enforcement of the Ministerial Ordinance Partially Revising the Ministerial Ordinance on Standards for Post-marketing Surveillance of Pharmaceutical Products and Review of Post-marketing Surveillance for the Reexamination of Pharmaceutical Products (No. 1324, December 27, 2000)) state as follows: (i) since information on pediatric patients obtained in clinical trials may be limited, the MHLW recommends that pharmaceutical manufacturers conduct adequate post-marketing surveillance during the reexamination interval period and collect as much information as possible for proper use of drugs for pediatric patients; and (ii) if a pharmaceutical manufacturer plans to conduct a clinical trial to set the dose of a pediatric drug to prepare application for manufacturing/marketing approval or after receiving the same approval, the reexamination interval period may be extended up to ten years. The notification of MHLW (Partial Revision of Handling of Reexamination Period (Issue No. 0116/3, January 16, 2024)) states that ten years will be applied as the reexamination period for the “addition of clearly different dosage such as pediatric doses.” In addition, since February 2010 the MHLW has convened a study group composed of physicians on a regular basis to discuss and promote the development of children’s drugs that have been approved for use in Europe and the US but are not yet approved in Japan, so that they can be used as early as possible in Japan as well.

Regulation Outside the US, Europe and Japan

In addition to regulations in the US, Europe and Japan, we will be subject to a variety of regulations in other jurisdictions governing clinical studies of our candidate products, including medical devices. Regardless of whether we obtain FDA approval for a product candidate, we must obtain approval by the comparable regulatory authorities of countries outside the US before we can commence clinical studies or marketing of the product candidate in those countries. The requirements for approval and the approval process vary from country to country, and the time may be longer or shorter than that required for FDA approval. Under certain harmonized medical device approval/clearance regulations outside the US, reference to US clearance permits fast-tracking of market clearance. Other regions are harmonized with EU standards, and therefore recognize the CE mark as a declaration of conformity to applicable standards. Furthermore, we must obtain any required pricing approvals in addition to regulatory approval prior to launching a product candidate in the approving country. Although the UK is no longer part of the EU, its medicinal product and medical device regulations remain broadly aligned with the EU requirements.

Managed Access Programs

Certain countries allow the supply or use of investigational products within strictly regulated managed access programs (MAPs), such as post-trial access programs, compassionate use programs and named patient access programs. We provide BRINSUPRI, ARIKAYCE, and, with respect to post-trial access programs, certain of our product candidates, to patients through various of these MAPs.

Reimbursement of Pharmaceutical Products

In the US, many independent third-party payors, as well as the Medicare and state Medicaid programs, reimburse dispensers of pharmaceutical products. Medicare is the federal program that provides healthcare benefits to senior citizens and certain disabled and chronically ill persons. Medicaid is the need-based federal and state program administered by the states to provide healthcare benefits to certain persons.

As one of the conditions for obtaining Medicaid and, if applicable, Medicare Part B or Part D coverage for our marketed pharmaceutical products, we will need to agree to pay a rebate to state Medicaid agencies that provide reimbursement for those products. We will also have to agree to sell our commercial products under contracts with the Department of Veterans Affairs, Department of Defense, Public Health Service, and numerous other federal agencies as well as certain hospitals that are designated by federal statutes to receive drugs at prices that are significantly below the price we charge to commercial pharmaceutical distributors. These programs and contracts are highly regulated and will impose restrictions on our business. Failure to comply with these regulations and restrictions could result in adverse consequences such as civil money penalties, imposition of a Corporate Integrity Agreement and/or a loss of Medicare and Medicaid reimbursement for our drugs.

Private healthcare payors also attempt to control costs and influence drug pricing through a variety of mechanisms, including through negotiating discounts with the manufacturers and through the use of tiered formularies and other mechanisms that provide preferential access to certain drugs over others within a therapeutic class. Payors also set other criteria to govern the uses of a drug that will be deemed medically appropriate and therefore reimbursed or otherwise covered.

The Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) of 2022 (P.L. 117-169) has, for the first time, allowed Medicare to negotiate the price of certain high expenditure, single source Medicare Part B or Part D drugs. The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services has implemented a Medicare Drug Price Negotiation Program, and this program may affect future Medicare reimbursement for our drugs. The IRA also requires manufacturers of certain Part B and Part D drugs to issue to the US Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) rebates based on certain calculations and triggers (i.e., when drug prices increase and outpace the rate of inflation) which may influence the pricing of current and future products.

The Trump Administration issued a series of Executive Orders seeking to reduce prescription drug costs in the US by requiring manufacturers to sell certain drugs in the US at no higher than the lowest prices paid for those same drugs in other developed countries and directing the US Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) to facilitate direct-to-consumer (DTC) purchasing programs for prescription drugs at the most-favored-nation (MFN) price. In addition, in late 2025, HHS proposed three payment models that would test MFN pricing in Medicaid (the GENEROUS model), Medicare Part D (the GUARD model), and Medicare Part B (the GLOBE model). Under the GENEROUS model, manufacturers could provide MFN pricing to state Medicaid agencies on a voluntary basis. If GLOBE and GUARD are finalized, pharmaceutical manufacturers would be required to pay MFN-based rebates on eligible products for 25% of eligible Medicare beneficiaries during the applicable testing period. Drug pricing is an active area for regulatory reform at both the federal and state levels, and additional significant changes to current drug pricing and reimbursement structures in the US could be forthcoming.

Different pricing and reimbursement schemes exist in other countries. In the EU, governments influence the price of drugs through their pricing and reimbursement rules and control of national healthcare systems that fund a large part of the cost of those products to patients. Some jurisdictions operate positive and negative list systems under which drugs may only be marketed once a reimbursement price has been agreed. To obtain reimbursement or pricing approval, some of these countries may require the completion of clinical trials that compare the cost-effectiveness of a particular product candidate to currently available therapies. Other member states allow companies to fix their own prices for drugs, but monitor and control company profits. The downward pressure on healthcare costs in general, particularly prescription drugs, has become very intense. As a result, increasingly high barriers are being erected to the entry of new drugs. In addition, in some countries, cross-border imports from low-priced markets exert a commercial pressure on pricing within a country. There can be no assurance that any country that has price controls or reimbursement limitations for drugs will allow favorable reimbursement and pricing arrangements for any of our products.

In Japan, drugs can be sold on the market if they undergo the PMDA’s review of quality, efficacy and safety and receive manufacturing/marketing approval. However, in order for drugs to be covered by the National Health Insurance, they must be included in a Drug Price List. The "Drug Pricing Organization," which is a division of the Central Social Insurance Medical Council (CSIMC), calculates the price of drugs, the general meeting of the CSIMC approves the calculated price, and the MHLW includes the drugs and the calculated price in the Drug Price List. After receiving manufacturing/marketing approval, drugs are included in the Drug Price List within 60 to 90 days unless the applicant disagrees, which may result in extended pricing negotiations. The MHLW updates the Drug Price List annually after taking into account the survey result of the actual sales price of drugs and hearing the opinion of the CSIMC.

Fraud and Abuse and Other Laws

Physicians and other healthcare providers and third-party payors (government or private) often play a primary role in the recommendation and prescription of healthcare products. In the US and most other jurisdictions, numerous detailed requirements apply to government and private healthcare programs, and a broad range of fraud and abuse laws, transparency laws, and other laws are relevant to pharmaceutical companies. US federal and state healthcare laws and regulations in these areas include the following:

•The federal Anti-kickback Statute;

•The federal civil False Claims Act;

•The federal Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA), as amended by the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health Act;

•The federal criminal false statements statute;

•The price reporting requirements under the Medicaid Drug Rebate Program and the Veterans Health Care Act of 1992;

•The federal Physician Payment Sunshine Act, being implemented as the Open Payments Program; and

•Analogous and similar state laws and regulations.

Similar restrictions apply in the member states of the EU and Japan, which have been set out by laws or industry codes of conduct.

Employees

As of December 31, 2025, we had a total of 1,664 full-time employees: 736 in research, clinical, regulatory, medical affairs and quality assurance; 107 in technical operations, manufacturing and quality control; 266 in general and administrative functions; and 555 in commercial activities. We had 1,274 full-time employees in the US, 238 employees in Europe and 152 employees in Japan. We anticipate increasing our headcount in 2026.

None of our employees are represented by a labor union and we believe that our relations with our employees are generally good. Generally, our US employees are at-will employees; however, we have entered into employment agreements with our executive officers.

Our compensation program, including short- and long-term incentives and benefits, is designed to allow us to attract and retain individuals whose skills are critical to our current and long-term success. Total compensation is generally positioned within a competitive range of the peer market median, with differentiation based on market benchmarks, experience, skills, proficiency, and performance to attract and retain key talent. With our compensation program, we also aim to align the interests of our employees with those of our stockholders.

We believe that continued growth and development are essential to the professional well-being of our team, from onboarding through the employee lifecycle. We seek to develop our employee talent within the organization through access to internal and external training, continuous learning programs and other development initiatives. As our organization and capabilities grow, we aim to ensure we have provided our team members with the guidance and resources they need to develop as professionals and to support our business.

Our Values

Five core values—collaboration, accountability, passion, respect, and integrity—set the tone for our culture and guide the actions we take each day. In 2025, we introduced guiding principles, the ‘To Be List’, bringing our values and who we are as an organization to life. We strive to ensure that these values drive all of our human capital endeavors, including hiring, our annual employee feedback process, our Global Core Competencies, our Recognition Program, and our employee onboarding initiatives.

We are focused on maintaining an inclusive work environment that best supports the varied needs of the patient communities we serve. We continue to grow our list of employee resource groups and expand our sourcing for new talent to enhance our talent pipeline. We are also committed to equitable pay for all employees. We use industry benchmarks and annual internal equity reviews to make salary adjustments as needed in efforts to ensure a fair and bias-free compensation system. As we grow, we are continuing to implement initiatives to advance the development of our talent and ensure comprehensive succession plans both in our employee workforce and our Board of Directors.

In furtherance of our values, we have continued to integrate our responsibility and sustainability program. We are cognizant of our environmental impact, support several green measures and community service programs, and continue to explore options to improve and build upon our sustainability efforts. We are committed to ensuring the health and well-being of our employees and promoting patient advocacy and safety. Finally, we are driven by integrity and believe good corporate governance is important and necessary to maintain ethical and compliant business practices.
