Savara Inc. (NASDAQ:SVRA) (the Company), a clinical stage biopharmaceutical company focused on rare respiratory diseases, reported financial results for the first quarter ending March 31, 2026 and provided a business update.

"With approximately $203 million in cash and, upon MOLBREEVI approval, access to up to an additional $150 million in non-dilutive capital through debt and royalty structures, we remain well capitalized to fund global commercial launch preparations," said Matt Pauls, Chair and CEO, Savara. "With a PDUFA action date of November 22^nd, U.S. commercial planning momentum is building. Our newly deployed Rare Disease Specialists are actively driving disease awareness for autoimmune PAP and advancing launch readiness initiatives for MOLBREEVI—a potentially first and only treatment for autoimmune PAP."

First Quarter Financial Results

Savara's net loss for the first quarter of 2026 was $37.3 million, or $(0.15) per share of which $10.7 million was related to non-cash share based compensation expense, specifically $7.8 million attributed to performance stock units, compared with a net loss of $26.6 million, or $(0.12) per share of which $3.0 million was related to share based compensation expense, for the first quarter of 2025.

Research and development expenses increased by $4.2 million, or 22.1%, to $23.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 from $19.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. This increase was primarily due to the performance of tasks related to our MOLBREEVI program, which includes approximately $2.5 million of costs related to our chemistry, manufacturing, and controls activities, primarily driven by activity at our drug substance manufacturer; $3.0 million of higher personnel costs, mainly related to increased share based compensation expense; partially offset by a decrease of $0.7 million of costs related to regulatory affairs consulting and quality assurance consulting and a decrease of $0.6 million of clinical costs.

General and administrative expenses increased by $6.3 million, or 68.4%, to $15.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 from $9.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The increase was primarily attributable to $6.0 million of higher personnel costs, mainly related to increased share based compensation expense; other departmental overhead of $0.6 million, partially offset by a decrease in certain commercial activities of $0.3 million.

As of March 31, 2026, the Company had cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments of ~$202.8 million and debt of ~$30.1 million.

About Autoimmune Pulmonary Alveolar Proteinosis (Autoimmune PAP)

Autoimmune PAP is a rare lung disease characterized by the abnormal build-up of surfactant in the alveoli. Surfactant consists of proteins and lipids and is an important physiological substance that lines the alveoli to prevent them from collapsing. In a healthy lung, excess surfactant is cleared and digested by immune cells called alveolar macrophages. Alveolar macrophages need to be stimulated by granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) to function properly in clearing surfactant, but in autoimmune PAP, GM-CSF is neutralized by autoantibodies against GM-CSF, rendering macrophages unable to adequately clear surfactant. As a result, an excess of surfactant accumulates in the alveoli, causing impaired gas transfer, resulting in clinical symptoms of shortness of breath, often with cough and frequent fatigue. Patients may also experience episodes of fever, chest pain, or coughing up blood, especially if secondary lung infection develops. In the long term, the disease can lead to serious complications, including lung fibrosis and the need for a lung transplant.
