Revenues were $11.0 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2026, primarily reflecting the recognition of $10.7 million related to performance obligations satisfied under the Research Plans of the AZ JRCA with AZ Ireland, compared with $26.9 million recognized during the corresponding period in 2025. The $16.4 million decrease in revenues was primarily driven by the level of activities performed under the Research Plans during the period.

Revenue recognized in respect of each Research Plan with AZ Ireland has been estimated in accordance with the provisions set out in Note 2.3. We have estimated the progress of our performance obligation on the basis of costs incurred to date compared with total budgeted costs for each Research Plan. We applied a percentage of completion thus obtained to the total transaction price allocated to each Research Plan, excluding variable remuneration for which it is not highly probable that a significant reversal will not occur. As of June 30, 2026, the transaction price allocated to each Research Plan excluding variable remuneration for which it is not highly probable that a significant reversal will not occur, corresponds to the development milestone already achieved, the amount of rechargeable costs in accordance with the agreement, and the share of upfront payments allocated to each Research Plan.

The $0.6 million increase in other income between the six-month periods ended June 30, 2025 and 2026 was primarily attributable to a higher research tax credit resulting from increased eligible R&D expenses, as well as favorable foreign exchange effects.

During the six-month period ended June 30, 2026, research and development expenses increased by $7.2 million compared with the corresponding period in 2025. This increase was primarily driven by (i) a $4.5 million increase in personnel expenses, reflecting changes in our R&D headcount and higher stock-based compensation expense associated with awards granted in 2026, whose grant-date fair value increased due to a higher underlying share price, and (ii) a $3.7 million increase in purchases and external expenses, mainly attributable to higher clinical development costs related to our BALLI-01 and NATHALI-01 studies. These increases were partially offset by a $1.0 million decrease in depreciation and amortization expenses, primarily attributable to the expiration in January 2026 of the contractual lease term for equipment at our Raleigh manufacturing facility.

Over the same period, selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $1.5 million mainly due to higher stock-based compensation expense resulting from awards granted in 2026, whose grant-date fair value increased due to a higher underlying share price.

For the three-month period ended June 30, 2026, research and development expenses increased by $1.9 million compared with the corresponding period in 2025. This increase was primarily driven by (i) a $1.7 million increase in purchases and external expenses, and (ii) a $0.8 million increase in personnel expenses mainly attributable to higher stock-based compensation expense associated with awards granted in 2026, whose grant-date fair value increased due to a higher underlying share price. These increases were partially offset by a $0.6 million decrease in depreciation and amortization expenses, primarily attributable to the expiration in January 2026 of the contractual lease term for equipment at our Raleigh manufacturing facility.

Over the same period, selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $0.7 million mainly due to higher stock-based compensation expense resulting from awards granted in 2026, whose grant-date fair value increased due to higher underlying share price.

Between the six-month periods ended June 30, 2025 and 2026, the net financial gain (loss) improved by $27.3 million, from a net financial loss of $18.1 million to a net financial gain of $9.2 million, due to a $5.0 million increase in financial income and a $22.3 million decrease in financial expenses.

The $5.0 million increase in financial income was primarily attributable to (i) a $7.0 million increase in non-cash gains recognized from fair value measurements, mainly reflecting an $8.7 million gain on the fair value measurement of the Tranche A, B and C warrants issued to the European Investment Bank ("EIB") (see note 12) in the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared with a $1.2 million gain in the same period in 2025, partially offset by (ii) a $1.7 million decrease in interest income earned on cash, cash equivalents and financial assets, and (iii) a $0.4 million decrease in foreign exchange gains.

The $22.3 million decrease in financial expenses was primarily attributable to a $22.8 million decrease in foreign exchange losses, mainly resulting from the appreciation of the US dollar against the euro.
