are not historical in nature or do not relate to current facts are intended to be, and are hereby identified as, forward-looking statements for purposes of the safe harbor provided by Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and
Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Forward-looking statements are based on, among other things, BioCryst management’s and Astria management’s beliefs, assumptions, current expectations, estimates and projections
about the economy and BioCryst and Astria and the industry in which they operate. Words and phrases such as “may,” “approximately,” “continue,” “should,” “expects,” “projects,” “anticipates,” “is likely,” “look ahead,” “look forward,”
“believes,” “will,” “intends,” “estimates,” “strategy,” “plan,” “could,” “potential,” “possible” and variations of such words and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements include
statements regarding, among other things, the expected benefits of the Transaction and BioCryst’s ability to recognize the benefits of the Transaction, the anticipated timing of the closing of the Transaction, the anticipated financial impact
of the Transaction, BioCryst’s or the combined company’s performance following the Transaction, including future financial and operating results, anticipated approval and commercialization of navenibart, pharmaceutical research and
development, such as drug discovery, preclinical and clinical development activities and related timelines, expected HAE portfolio revenue growth and addressable market, anticipated benefits, performance, and competitive positioning of, and
market size for, navenibart, potential best-in-class profile of product candidates (including navenibart), and BioCryst’s and Astria’s plans, objectives, expectations, intentions, growth strategies and other statements that are not historical
facts. BioCryst and Astria caution readers that forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that are difficult to predict with regard to, among other things, timing, extent, likelihood and degree of occurrence,
which could cause actual results to differ materially from anticipated results. Such risks and uncertainties include, among others, the following possibilities: the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstances that could give rise
to the right of one or both of the parties to terminate the definitive merger agreement entered into between BioCryst and Astria; the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against BioCryst or Astria; the failure to obtain
necessary regulatory approvals (and the risk that such approvals may result in the imposition of conditions that could adversely affect the combined company or the expected benefits of the Transaction) and Astria stockholder approval or to
satisfy any of the other conditions to the Transaction on a timely basis or at all; the possibility that the anticipated benefits of the Transaction, including anticipated synergies, are not realized when expected or at all, including as a
result of the impact of, or problems arising from, the integration of the two companies or as a result of the strength of the economy and competitive factors in the areas where BioCryst and Astria do business; the significant indebtedness
BioCryst expects to incur in connection with the Transaction and the need to generate sufficient cash flows to service and repay such debt; the possibility that the Transaction may be more expensive to complete than anticipated; diversion of
management’s attention from ongoing business operations and opportunities; potential adverse reactions or changes to business or employee relationships, including those resulting from the announcement or completion of the Transaction; risks
relating to the potential dilutive effect of shares of BioCryst common stock to be issued in the Transaction; BioCryst’s HAE portfolio and revenue growth expectations may not be achieved due to, among other risks, risks related to government
actions, including that decisions and other actions, including as they relate to pricing for navenibart, may not be taken when expected or at all, or that the outcomes of such decisions and other actions may not be in line with BioCryst’s
current expectations, risks that the FDA, or other applicable regulatory agency, may not provide regulatory clearances or approval for navenibart on the expected timeline or at all, may impose certain restrictions, warnings, or other
requirements on products and product candidates (including navenibart), may impose a clinical hold with respect to navenibart, or may withhold, delay, or withdraw market approval for products and product candidates (including navenibart), and
risks that navenibart, if approved, may not achieve market acceptance; sustainability of profitability and positive cash flow, and anticipated cash balance, may not meet management’s expectations; statements and projections regarding
financial guidance and goals and the attainment of such goals may differ from actual results based on market factors and BioCryst’s ability to execute its operational and budget plans; actual financial results may not be consistent with
expectations, including that revenue, operating expenses and cash usage may not be within management’s expected ranges; ongoing and future preclinical and clinical development of product candidates may take longer than expected and may not
have positive results; the outcome of preclinical testing and early clinical trials may not be predictive of the success of later clinical trials; and other factors that may affect future results of BioCryst, Astria and the combined company.
Additional factors that could cause results to differ materially from those described above can be found in BioCryst’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, Astria’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
