OPGx-BEST1 Gene Therapy Phase 1/2 Study Low Dose Cohort 1 3-month
Results September 9, 2026
This presentation contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the
Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by the following words: “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “aim,” “may,” “ongoing,”
“plan,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “should,” “will,” “would” or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology, although not all forward-looking statements contain these words. Such statements include, but are not limited
to, statements related to our continued clinical development, clinical results, preclinical data, and future plans for OPGx-BEST1, including the anticipated timing of dosing completion and topline data from Cohort 2 of the OPGx-BEST1 Phase
1/2 clinical trial; the outcome of our ongoing regulatory interactions with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”) and our expectations regarding the design of, and potential endpoints for, of any pivotal clinical trial of
OPGx-BEST1; our expectations regarding the clinical and therapeutic potential of OPGx-BEST1, including with respect to its ability to improve visual function and retinal structure in patients with BEST1-related retinal disease; our estimates
of the BEST1 symptomatic patient population in the U.S. and globally; and our expectations regarding our company, its business prospects, and our results of operations. These forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and
uncertainties posed by many factors and events that could cause our actual business, prospects and results of operations to differ materially from those anticipated by such forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to
such differences include, but are not limited to: our clinical data related to gene therapies for the treatment of inherited retinal diseases is preliminary and related to a relatively small group of patients, and, as a result, data that
initially appears promising may be revised, updated, or invalidated at a later data readout and/or may ultimately not be capable of duplication in additional patients; our gene therapy product candidates are based on a novel technology that
is difficult to develop and manufacture, which may result in delays and difficulties in obtaining regulatory approval; our planned clinical trials may face substantial delays, result in failure, or provide inconclusive or adverse results that
may not satisfy the FDA requirements to further develop our therapeutic products; delays or difficulties associated with patient enrollment in clinical trials may affect our ability to conduct and complete those clinical trials and obtain
necessary regulatory approvals; changes in regulatory requirements could result in increased costs or delays in development timelines; we depend heavily on the success of our product pipeline; if we fail to find strategic partners or fail to
adequately develop or commercialize our pipeline products, our business will be materially harmed; we have not generated significant revenue from sales of any products and expect to incur losses for the foreseeable future; our future
viability is difficult to assess due to our short operating history and our future need for substantial additional capital, access to which could be limited by any adverse developments that affect the financial services markets; we rely on
third parties for material aspects of our business, such as conducting our nonclinical and clinical trials and supplying and manufacturing bulk drug substances, which exposes us to certain risks; and those risks and uncertainties described
under the heading “Risk Factors” included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 and our subsequent filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Readers are cautioned not to
place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this presentation. We undertake no obligation to revise any forward-looking statements in order to reflect events or circumstances that might
subsequently arise. These forward-looking statements are based upon our current expectations and involve assumptions that may never materialize or may prove to be incorrect. Disclosures and Forward-Looking Statements 2
