Savara Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
1. Organization and Nature of Operations
Description of Business
Savara Inc. (together with its subsidiaries “Savara,” the “Company,” “we” or “us”) is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on rare respiratory diseases. The Company’s sole program, molgramostim inhalation solution ("MOLBREEVI" or "molgramostim"), is an investigational inhaled biologic, specifically an inhaled granulocyte-macrophagecolony stimulating factor ("GM-CSF") in Phase 3 development for autoimmune pulmonary alveolar proteinosis (“autoimmune PAP”). The Company and its wholly-owned domestic and foreign subsidiaries operate in
Since inception, Savara has devoted its efforts and resources to identifying and developing its product candidates, recruiting personnel, and raising capital. Savara has incurred operating losses and negative cash flow from operations and has
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) as defined by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”). The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the annual consolidated financial statements and reflect, in the opinion of management, all adjustments that are necessary to fairly present the statements of financial position, operations and cash flows for the periods presented. The results of operations for interim periods shown in this report are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2026 or for any other future annual or interim period.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been omitted from these condensed consolidated financial statements, as permitted by rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). The Company believes the disclosures made in these condensed consolidated financial statements are adequate to make the information herein not misleading. The Company recommends that these condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with its audited consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025. The Company’s significant accounting policies are described in Note 2 to the audited consolidated financial statements. There have been no changes to the Company's significant accounting policies since the date of those financial statements.
Principles of Consolidation
The interim condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company are stated in U.S. dollars and are prepared under U.S. GAAP. These condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. The financial statements of the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiaries are recorded in their functional currency and translated into the reporting currency. The cumulative effect of changes in exchange rates between the foreign entity’s functional currency and the reporting currency is reported in Accumulated other comprehensive loss in the condensed consolidated balance sheet. All intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated in consolidation. The condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2025 has been derived from the Company's audited consolidated financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and notes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements.
Liquidity
As of March 31, 2026, the Company had an accumulated deficit of approximately $
The Company is currently focused on the development and regulatory approval of MOLBREEVI for the treatment of autoimmune PAP and believes such activities will result in the continued incurrence of significant research and development, regulatory, commercial and other expenses related to this program. If the Company’s product candidate
6
does not gain regulatory approval or, if approved, fails to achieve market acceptance, the Company may never become profitable. Even if the Company achieves profitability in the future, it may not be able to sustain profitability in subsequent periods. The Company intends to cover its future operating expenses through cash and cash equivalents on hand, short-term investments, and through a combination of equity offerings, debt financings, government or other third-party funding, and other collaborations and strategic alliances with partner companies. The Company cannot be sure that additional financings will be available when needed or that, if available, financings will be obtained on terms favorable to the Company or its stockholders. If such additional financings are not available timely and at adequate levels, the Company will need to reevaluate its long-term operating plans. The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
In order to mitigate risks associated with our banking deposits, the Company maintains a significant portion of its liquidity in U.S. Treasury money market funds and other short-term investments with custodial services provided by U.S. Bank, N.A., and FNZ, refer to Note 5. Short-term Investments and Note 7. Fair Value Measurements.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the Company to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Management’s estimates include those related to the accrual of research and development and general and administrative costs, certain financial instruments recorded at fair value, stock-based compensation, and the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other market-specific and relevant assumptions that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. Accordingly, actual results could be materially different from those estimates.
Risks and Uncertainties
The product candidate being developed by the Company requires approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) or foreign regulatory agencies prior to commercial sales. There can be no assurance that the Company’s product candidate will receive the necessary approvals. If the Company is denied regulatory approval of its product candidate, or if approval is delayed, it will have a material adverse impact on the Company’s business, results of operations, and its financial position.
The Company is subject to a number of risks similar to other life science companies, including, but not limited to, risks related to the successful discovery and development of drug candidates, raising additional capital, development of competing drugs and therapies, protection of proprietary technology, regulatory approval of drug candidates, and market acceptance of the Company’s product. As a result of these and other factors and the related uncertainties, there can be no assurance of the Company’s future success.
Concentration of Credit Risk
We are subject to credit risk from our portfolio of cash equivalents and marketable securities. These investments were made in accordance with our investment policy which specifies the categories, allocations, and ratings of securities we may consider for investment. The primary objective of our investment activities is to preserve principal while at the same time maximizing the income we receive without significantly increasing risk. We maintain our cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities with a limited number of financial institutions. Deposits held with the financial institutions exceed the amount of insurance provided on such deposits. We are exposed to credit risk in the event of a default by the financial institutions holding our cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities to the extent recorded on the consolidated balance sheets.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In March 2024, the FASB issued Accounting Statement Update 2024-03, Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income – Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses ("ASU 2024-03"), to improve the disclosures about a public business entity’s expenses and to provide more detailed information about the types of expenses in commonly presented expense captions. The amendments in this update should be applied either prospectively or retrospectively, and are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027. We began an assessment of the impact that this guidance will have on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures, and our analysis is currently ongoing.
There are no other recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, or the SEC that are believed by the Company's management to have a material effect, if any, on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

Prepaid Contracted Research and Development Costs

The Company has classified its investments as available-for-sale securities. These securities are carried at estimated fair value with the aggregate unrealized gains and losses related to these investments reflected as a part of Accumulated other comprehensive loss in the condensed consolidated balance sheet. Classification as short-term or long-term is based upon whether the initial maturity of the debt securities is less than or greater than twelve months, as further discussed in Note 7 . Fair Value Measurements.

The Company has identified certain embedded features within the Hercules Loan Agreement. The Company assessed these features and determined the one feature related to interest due upon an event of default (the “Default Penalty”) is required to be bifurcated from the debt and accounted for separately at fair value. As of March 31, 2026, the Default Penalty does not have a discernable fair value and no amounts are recorded.
The Company evaluated the Loan Agreement, as amended by the First Amendment, under ASC 470-50, “Debt - Modification and Extinguishment,” and concluded that the amended terms represented a decrease in the borrowing capacity of a delayed draw term loan with a single lender. Accordingly, the Company immediately recognized an expense equal to

7. Fair Value Measurements
The Company measures and reports certain financial instruments at fair value on a recurring basis and evaluates its financial instruments subject to fair value measurements on a recurring and nonrecurring basis to determine the appropriate level in which to classify them in each reporting period.
Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis
The Company categorizes its financial assets and liabilities measured and reported at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis based upon the level of judgment associated with the inputs used to measure their fair value. Hierarchical levels, which are directly related to the amount of subjectivity associated with the inputs used to determine the fair value of financial assets and liabilities, are as follows:
Each major category of financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis is categorized based upon the lowest level of significant input to the valuations. The fair value hierarchy also requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The Company determined that certain investments in debt securities classified as available-for-sale securities were Level 1 financial instruments.
Additional investments in corporate debt securities, commercial paper, and asset-backed securities are considered Level 2 financial instruments because the Company has access to quoted prices but does not have visibility to the volume and frequency of trading for all of these investments. For the Company’s investments, a market approach is used for recurring fair value measurements and the valuation techniques use inputs that are observable, or can be corroborated by observable data, in an active marketplace.
The fair value of these instruments as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025 was as follows (in thousands):

Royalty Purchase and Sale Agreement Derivative Liability
The derivative liability arose from the royalty purchase and sale agreement entered on October 29, 2025, as further described in Note 9. Commitments and Contingencies, under which the Company has the option to prepay the Purchaser (as defined below) and the Purchaser may require the Company to remunerate proceeds of $
The derivative liability has been classified as a Level 3 recurring liability as its valuation requires substantial judgment and estimation of factors that are not currently observable in the market. If different assumptions were used for the inputs to the valuation approach, the estimated fair value could be significantly different than the fair value the Company determined. The derivative liability is expected to either be settled or absolved within twelve months and is therefore classified as a current liability in the consolidated balance sheet.
Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis
Certain assets and liabilities are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. These assets and liabilities are not measured at fair value on an ongoing basis but are subject to fair value adjustments annually or whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value of those assets may not be recoverable. These assets and liabilities can include acquired IPR&D and other long-lived assets that are written down to fair value if they are impaired.
During the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the Company experienced a decrease of approximately $

FujiFilm Diosynth (“Fuji”)
In February 2024, the Company entered into a master services agreement with Fuji to provide development and manufacturing services related to the active pharmaceutical ingredient (“API”) for the Company’s MOLBREEVI product candidate in accordance with the terms of separate scope of work agreements and to perform a manufacturing campaign for process performance qualification of the API of MOLBREEVI. The total estimated accumulated fees the Company will have paid this manufacturer for services under that master services agreement and related work orders and subsequent change orders is $
GEMABIOTECH SAU (“GEMA”)
Under a manufacture and supply agreement, as amended, with GEMA related to the API for MOLBREEVI, the Company must make certain payments to GEMA upon achievement of the milestones outlined in the table set forth below. Additionally, upon first receipt of marketing approval by the Company from a regulatory authority in a country for a product containing the API supplied by GEMA for therapeutic use in humans and ending the earlier of (i) ten (10) years thereafter or (ii) the date a biosimilar of such product is first sold in such country, the Company shall pay GEMA a royalty equal to low-single digits of the net sales in that country.
13
Additionally, the Company is subject to a purchase requirement under which for ten years following the date of receipt of approval by a regulatory authority of the first regulatory filing for the marketing and sale of the first product containing the API supplied by GEMA in any country, the Company will purchase from GEMA the API required to produce a percentage of such product it sells each year (the “Purchase Requirement”); provided, however, that the Purchase Requirement will no longer apply if (i) the price charged by GEMA exceeds a certain price charged by an alternative supplier, (ii) there is a shortage of supply, or (iii) GEMA at any time fails to materially fulfill a purchase order of the Company.

Contract Research
As part of its development of MOLBREEVI for the treatment of autoimmune PAP, the Company entered into a master services agreement (“MSA”) with Parexel International (IRL) Limited (“Parexel”) pursuant to which Parexel will provide contract research services related to clinical trials. Contemporaneously with entering the MSA in January 2021, a work order was executed with Parexel, under which they provide services related to the IMPALA-2 clinical trial. From inception of the original work order and subsequent change orders through trial close-out activities, the Company will have paid Parexel service fees, pass-through expenses, and investigator fees estimated to be approximately $

14
Under the Purchase Agreement, upon the occurrence of a Change of Control of the Company (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) the Company has the option to prepay (“Company Call”) and the Purchaser has the option to demand the prepayment (“Buyer Put”) of a specified amount and terminate the Purchase Agreement. The revenue-based repayments to the Buyer (“Revenue-Based Payment”) will be established on a schedule of royalty rates as a factor of Annual Net Sales, including applicable ratchets in the definition of a Royalty Rate, until the Royalty Cap is reached.
The Company has identified the embedded features in the Purchase Agreement and concluded that the Buyer Put Option and the Company Call Option are embedded derivatives that must be bifurcated under ASC 815-10-15-83 and ASC 815-15-25-1, Derivatives and Hedging.
Accordingly, the Company has recorded the royalty agreement derivative as of the date of issuance and determined its fair value to be approximately $
In addition, direct and incremental Company issuance costs as well as reimbursed Buyer expenses have been capitalized by the Company and amortized over the expected term of the arrangement. Upon the Purchase Agreement closing, the remaining balance will be applied against the proceeds received and subsequently amortized using the effective interest method.
Risk Management
The Company maintains various forms of insurance that the Company's management believes are adequate to reduce the exposure to certain risks associated with operating the Company’s business to an acceptable level.

12. Net Loss per Share
Basic and diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common stock and pre-funded warrants outstanding during the period without consideration of common stock equivalents. For periods in which the Company generated a net loss, the Company does not include the potential impact of dilutive securities in diluted net loss per share, as the impact of these items is anti-dilutive. Diluted net loss per share is the same as basic net loss per common share since the effects of potentially dilutive securities are antidilutive.
The following equity instruments were excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share because their effect would have been anti-dilutive for the periods presented:

Cautionary Statement Concerning Forward-Looking Statements
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (“Quarterly Report”) contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Any statements contained herein that involve risks and uncertainties, such as Savara’s plans, objectives, expectations, intentions, and beliefs should be considered forward-looking statements. Savara’s actual results could differ materially from those discussed in these forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to the following: the ability to project future cash utilization and reserves needed for contingent future liabilities and business operations, the risks associated with the process of conducting clinical trials and developing, obtaining regulatory approval for and commercializing drug candidates that are safe and effective for use as human therapeutics, the timing and ability to raise additional capital as needed to fund continued operations, natural disasters, pandemics, geopolitical events (including the war in Iran, the war between Russia and Ukraine and ongoing conflicts in the Middle East), the Company’s ability to maintain compliance with its covenants under its long-term debt instruments and those risks and uncertainties discussed in the section entitled “Risk Factors” in this Quarterly Report and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on March 13, 2026, all of which are difficult to predict.
Statements made herein are as of the date of the filing of this Quarterly Report with the SEC and should not be relied upon as of any subsequent date. We disclaim any obligation, except as specifically required by law and the rules of the SEC, to publicly update or revise any such statements to reflect any change in our expectations or in events, conditions or circumstances on which any such statements may be based or that may affect the likelihood that actual results will differ from those set forth in the forward-looking statements.
The following discussion and analysis of the financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report and the consolidated financial statements and related notes in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.
Overview
Savara Inc. (together with its subsidiaries “Savara,” the “Company,” “we,” “our” or “us”) is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on rare respiratory diseases. Our sole program, MOLBREEVI, an inhaled biologic, is a granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (“GM-CSF”) in development for autoimmune pulmonary alveolar proteinosis ("autoimmune PAP"). Savara previously announced positive topline results from IMPALA-2, the Phase 3 clinical trial of MOLBREEVI for the treatment of autoimmune PAP and the submission of the Biologics License Application ("BLA") to the FDA for MOLBREEVI in autoimmune PAP. In February 2026, the FDA formally filed the BLA for MOLBREEVI and granted Priority Review. In March 2026, the European Medicines Agency (“EMA”) validated the submission of the MOLBREEVI marketing authorization application (“MAA”) in autoimmune PAP which will be reviewed by the Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use. In April 2026, Savara announced that the U.K. Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (“MHRA”) validated the submission of the MOLBREEVI MAA for the treatment of autoimmune PAP in the U.K. subject to Accelerated Review with a 150-day assessment duration. In April 2026, Savara announced that the FDA extended the review period for the MOLBREEVI BLA to allow the FDA additional time to complete their review. The FDA determined that the Company’s responses to recent information requests by the Agency during their review constituted a major amendment to the BLA, resulting in a three-month extension of the Prescription Drug User Fee Act ("PDUFA") date to November 22, 2026. MOLBREEVI for the treatment of autoimmune PAP has been granted Fast Track and Breakthrough Therapy Designations by the FDA, Orphan Drug Designation by the FDA and the EMA, as well as Innovation Passport ("IP") and Promising Innovative Medicine ("PIM") designations by the MHRA. Savara, together with its wholly-owned subsidiaries, which include Aravas Inc. and Savara ApS, operate in one segment with its principal office in Langhorne, Pennsylvania, though a majority of our employees work remotely.
Since inception, we have devoted our efforts and resources to identifying and developing our product candidates, recruiting personnel, and raising capital. We have incurred operating losses and negative cash flow from operations and have no product revenue from inception to date. From inception to March 31, 2026, we have raised net cash proceeds of approximately $738.1 million, primarily from underwritten offerings of our common stock, private placements of common stock, and debt financings.
We have never been profitable and have incurred operating losses every year since inception. Our net losses for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 were $37.3 million and $26.6 million, respectively. The net loss for the year ended December 31, 2025 was $118.8 million. As of March 31, 2026, we had an accumulated deficit of approximately $645.4 million. Our operating losses primarily resulted from expenses attributed to our research and development programs and from general and administrative costs associated with our operations.
19
We have chosen to operate by outsourcing our manufacturing and most of our clinical operations. We expect to incur significant additional expenses and continue to incur operating losses for at least the next several years as we continue the clinical development of, and seek regulatory approval for, and prepare for the commercialization of our primary product candidate. We expect that our operating losses will fluctuate significantly from quarter to quarter and year to year due to the timing of clinical development programs and efforts to achieve regulatory approval.
As of March 31, 2026, we had cash and cash equivalents of $38.8 million and short-term investments of $164.0 million. We will continue to require additional capital to continue our clinical development and potential commercialization activities. Although we have sufficient capital to fund many of our planned activities, we may need to continue to raise additional capital to further fund the development of, and seek regulatory approvals for, our product candidate and begin to commercialize any approved product. The amount and timing of our future funding requirements will depend on many factors, including the pace and results of our clinical development efforts and regulatory and commercial variability. Failure to raise capital as and when needed, on favorable terms or at all, would have a negative impact on our financial condition and our ability to develop our product candidate.
Recent Events
On March 30, 2026 the Company announced that the EMA validated the submission of the MOLBREEVI MAA in autoimmune PAP and that the application will be reviewed by the Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use. The Company expects a decision by the EMA regarding the application in the first quarter of 2027.
On April 7, 2026, Savara announced that the MHRA accepted the submission of the MOLBREEVI MAA for the treatment of autoimmune PAP in the U.K. The MAA was accepted under Accelerated Review and qualifies for a 150-day assessment duration. A decision on the application is expected by the Company in the fourth quarter of 2026.
In April 2026, Savara announced that the FDA extended the review period for the MOLBREEVI BLA to allow the FDA additional time to complete their review. The FDA determined that the Company’s responses to recent information requests by the FDA during their review constituted a major amendment to the BLA, resulting in a three-month extension of the PDUFA date to November 22, 2026.
Financial Operations Overview
Research and Development Expenses
We recognize all research and development costs as they are incurred. Research and development expenses consist primarily of the following:
We expect research and development expenses will remain significant in the future as we advance our MOLBREEVI product candidate through clinical trials and pursue regulatory approvals, which will require a significant increased investment in regulatory support and contract manufacturing activities, including investing in the development of a second source manufacturer and CMC supplies.
The process of conducting clinical trials necessary to obtain regulatory approval is costly and time consuming. We may never succeed in timely developing and achieving regulatory approval for our product candidate. The probability of success of our product candidate may be affected by numerous factors, including clinical data, competition, intellectual property rights, manufacturing capability, and commercial viability. As a result, we are unable to accurately determine the duration and completion costs of our development projects or when and to what extent we will generate revenue from the commercialization and sale of MOLBREEVI.
20
General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative ("G&A") expenses consist primarily of consist of salaries, benefits and other related costs, including stock-based compensation, for our non-employee directors and personnel serving in our executive, finance and accounting, legal and compliance, commercial and pre-commercial, corporate development, field sales and human resource functions. G&A expenses also include professional fees for legal services, insurance, facility lease, investor relations, business development, board of director fees, consulting services, including information technology and tax and accounting services.
Other Income (Expense), Net
Other income (expense) includes amortization expense related to capitalized debt issuance costs and debt discount under our loan agreements. Refer to Note 6. Debt Facility in the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report. Interest expense is typically reported net of interest income which includes interest earned on our cash, cash equivalent, and short-term investment balances. Other income (expense) also includes net unrealized and realized gains and losses from foreign currency transactions, loss on extinguishment of debt, refundable tax credits generated by some of our foreign subsidiaries, and securities subject to fair value accounting as well as any other non-operating gains and losses.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
There have not been any material changes during the three months ended March 31, 2026, to the methodology applied by management for critical accounting policies previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025. Please read Part II, Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, for further description of our critical accounting policies.

Research and Development
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 is 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
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 is 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.
Other Income, Net
There was no significant changes in Other income, net for the three months ended March 31, 2026 from the three months ended March 31, 2025.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of March 31, 2026, we had $38.8 million of cash and cash equivalents, $164.0 million in short-term investments, and an accumulated deficit of approximately $645.4 million. As discussed in Note 6. Debt Facility in the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report, on March 26, 2025, we entered into the Hercules Loan Agreement, as amended, which provides for a loan facility of up to $105 million. Proceeds from the initial $30 million tranche drawn under the Hercules Loan Agreement, with a carrying value of $30.1 million, were used to repay all outstanding obligations under the SVB Loan, pay certain expenses incurred in connection with the financing, and for general corporate purposes. Subject to satisfaction of certain conditions, including attainment of FDA approval of MOLBREEVI for the treatment of autoimmune PAP, we may draw future tranches under the Hercules Loan Agreement and the royalty purchase and sale agreement with RTW Investments, LP, as discussed in Note 9. Commitments and Contingencies, to fund our ongoing business operations including the development, regulatory approval, marketing and commercialization of MOLBREEVI. Refer to Note 6. Debt Facility of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q for additional discussion.
We have used and intend to use our liquidity and capital for working capital and general corporate purposes, which include, but are not limited to, the funding of clinical development of and pursuing regulatory approval for MOLBREEVI, investing in our commercialization infrastructure and supply, commercial launch preparation activities in the United States and European Union and general and administrative expenses.

Cash flows from operating activities
Cash used in operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was $33.0 million, consisting of a net loss of $37.3 million and net $6.1 million in changes to operating assets and liabilities, offset by $10.4 million of net noncash charges. Net noncash charges are comprised primarily of stock-based compensation, accretion on discount to short-term investments, and amortization of debt issuance costs.
Cash flows from investing activities
Cash provided by investing activities of $38.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was primarily associated with proceeds from maturities of short-term investments and sale of short-term investments.
Cash flows from financing activities
Cash used in financing activities of $0.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was primarily the result of repurchasing shares for minimum tax withholdings.
Future Funding Requirements
We have not generated any revenue from product sales. We do not know when, or if, we will generate any revenue from product sales. We do not expect to generate any revenue from product sales unless and until we obtain regulatory approval for and commercialize our product candidate. At the same time, we expect our expenses to increase in connection with our ongoing development and manufacturing activities, particularly as we continue the research, development, manufacture, and clinical trials of, and seeking regulatory approval for, our product candidate. In addition, subject to obtaining regulatory approval of our product candidate, we anticipate we may need additional funding in connection with our continuing operations.
22
As of March 31, 2026, we had cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments of approximately $202.8 million. Although we have sufficient capital to fund our planned activities, including those discussed in Note 9. Commitments – Manufacturing and Other Commitments and Contingencies, in the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report, we may need to raise additional capital to further fund the development of, and seek regulatory approvals for, our product candidate and to begin commercialization of any approved product.
The amount and timing of our future funding requirements will depend on many factors, including the pace and results of our clinical development efforts. Failure to raise capital as and when needed, on favorable terms or at all, would have a negative impact on our financial condition and our ability to develop our product candidate.
Although we believe we are well capitalized based on our current operations, until we can generate a sufficient amount of product revenue to finance our cash requirements, we may finance our future cash needs primarily through the issuance of additional equity securities and potentially through borrowings, grants, and strategic alliances with partner companies. If we are unable to raise additional funds through equity or debt financings when needed, we may be required to delay, limit, reduce, or terminate our product development or commercialization efforts or grant rights to develop and market our product candidate to third parties that we would otherwise prefer to develop and market ourselves.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Except as set forth in Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies – Recent Accounting Pronouncements of the condensed consolidated financial statements in this Quarterly Report, there have been no material changes in our critical accounting policies and use of estimates during the three months ended March 31, 2026 as compared to those disclosed in “Part II, Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates” in the our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.
23
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
Market Risk
We have market risk exposure related to our cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investment securities. Such interest-earning instruments carry a degree of interest rate risk; however, we have not been exposed, nor do we anticipate being exposed, to material risks due to changes in interest rates. A hypothetical 1% change in interest rates during any of the periods presented would not have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements. Additionally, our investment securities are fixed income instruments denominated and payable in U.S. dollars and have short-term maturities, typically less than twelve months, and typically carry credit ratings of “A” at a minimum by two of three Nationally Recognized Statistical Rating Organizations, specifically Moody’s, Standard & Poor’s, or Fitch. As such, we do not believe that our cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investment securities have significant risk of default or illiquidity.
Interest Rate Risk
We also have interest rate exposure related to our long-term debt. Refer to Note 6. Debt Facility of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q for additional discussion. The Hercules Loan Agreement bears interest equal to the greater of (i) the prime rate reported in The Wall Street Journal, plus 1.45%, which was 8.2% on March 31, 2026. Changes in the prime rate would have impacted our interest expense associated with our secured term loan. If a 10% change in interest rates from the interest rates on March 31, 2026, were to have occurred, this change would not have had a material effect on our interest expense with respect to outstanding borrowed amounts.
Foreign Currency Exchange Risk
We use the U.S. Dollar ("USD") as our functional and reporting currency, and therefore, are subject to the risk of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. The financial statements of the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiaries are recorded in their functional currency and translated into USD. Our foreign currency exchange rate risk is primarily related to translation of our assets and liabilities from our foreign subsidiaries' functional currencies to USD. The cumulative effect of changes in exchange rates between the foreign entity’s functional currency and the reporting currency is reported in Accumulated other comprehensive gain (loss) in the condensed consolidated balance sheet.
Additionally, we have vendors in Denmark, elsewhere in Europe, and the United Kingdom and pay those vendors in local currency, Danish Krone, Euros, or British Pound Sterling, respectively. Accordingly, our results of operations and cash flows are subject to fluctuations due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates, particularly changes in the Euro, British Pound Sterling and Danish Krone. Our expenses are generally denominated in the currencies of the jurisdictions in which we conduct our operations, which are primarily in the United States as well as the European Union and the United Kingdom. Our results of operations and cash flows may be adversely affected due to an expansion of non-U.S. dollar denominated contracts, growth of our international entities and operations and changes in foreign exchange rates or a weakening or strengthening of the USD against the Euro, British Pound Sterling and Danish Krone.
For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, we recognized a loss on foreign currency transactions of $0.1 million and a gain on foreign currency transactions $0.3 million, respectively, recorded as a component of other comprehensive income (loss) in our condensed statements of operations. In general, the effect of a hypothetical 10% change in foreign currency exchange rates applicable to our business on March 31, 2026 would not have a material impact on our on our results of operations or financial condition. We are currently not engaged in any hedging strategies. As our international operations grow, we will continue to reassess our approach to manage the risk relating to fluctuations in currency rates.
Inflation Risk
Additionally, inflation generally affects us by increasing our cost of labor, supplies and clinical trial costs. We do not believe that inflation has had a material effect on our results of operations during the periods presented.
24
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management has evaluated, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial and Administrative Officer, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2026, pursuant to and as required by Rule 13a-15(b) under the Exchange Act. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial and Administrative Officer have concluded that, as of March 31, 2026, our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined by Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act, were effective and designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act (i) is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms and (ii) information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial and Administrative Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the three months ended March 31, 2026 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
25
PART II – OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
From time to time, we may become involved in various claims and legal proceedings. Regardless of outcome, litigation and other legal and administrative proceedings can have an adverse impact on us because of defense and settlement costs, diversion of management resources and other factors. We are not currently a party to any material pending litigation or other material legal proceeding.
On September 8, 2025, a putative securities class action complaint, Ho, et al. v. Savara Inc., et al., was filed against the Company and certain of our executive officers in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania. On each of December 4, 2025 and January 16, 2026, a stockholder derivative complaint was filed in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania against our directors, certain of our officers, and the Company as a nominal defendant, Norman v. Pauls, et al. and Lasky v. Pauls, et al., respectively. Those stockholder derivative complaints were consolidated on February 3, 2026. The securities class action complaint was voluntarily dismissed by the co-lead plaintiffs on February 6, 2026, and the stockholder derivative complaint was voluntarily dismissed by the plaintiffs on February 12, 2026.
