CEO's review
Last week we made significant progress with our Biologics technology platform, when a US biopharmaceutical company, after generating exciting advanced pre-clinical data using a nanoformed ultra-high concentration suspension, decided they wanted to secure exclusivity to license Nanoform’s biologics technology for one clinically and commercially validated target receptor. This is our first exclusivity agreement for the biologics technology for a therapeutic target. As there are more than 100 therapeutic targets with an approved biologic medicine, 200-300 additional targets currently subject to clinical development - many of them targeted by several pharma companies with one or several APIs - and very few technology providers that can enable subcutaneous delivery of monoclonal antibodies, we expect more exclusivity deals to follow.
On the small molecules side, our nanoenzalutamide program reached an important inflection point during the quarter. Feedback from a European scientific advice meeting confirmed the strong scientific rationale for the product, its high quality and the robustness of the supporting data package. At the same time, this regulator held the opinion that under the current legal framework, a hybrid generic application cannot proceed in its present form, as full compliance with all standard bioequivalence criteria remains mandatory. While this means the dossier submission originally targeted for this month will be delayed, the process has provided guidance on the pathways available to move forward. Together with our consortium partners, we have therefore after careful consideration decided to pursue a parallel multitrack strategy. We are evaluating selected national submissions in European markets that may accept the current data package, with the aim of using such approvals as a basis for broader access over time. We are also advancing further formulation work to also meet the remaining Cmax requirement. And we are assessing a non-generic pathway for the current product profile, which we believe remains scientifically and commercially compelling given its benefits and convenience for patients. These alternatives will require some additional spending on formulation work, but should not have a substantial cash flow impact on Nanoform, as we will continue to be paid for the work we perform. More important than the direct costs, however, is the impact on timing. Over the coming months and quarters, we expect to gain greater visibility through discussions with national authorities in Europe, feedback from the FDA, progress from formulation and preclinical/clinical work. Overall, all parties continue to see a meaningful global opportunity for nanoenzalutamide and its unique non-infringing formulation and believe the product can still reach the market potentially as early as 2028 and clearly before 2030, still many years before the end of the originator product's secondary formulation patents run out.
We have been busy on many other fronts as well, which can be seen in the 45 per cent revenue growth and a clearly lower cost base leading to significantly improved operating free cash flow. We will see a further reduction in the cost base in the coming quarter when the implemented personnel reductions start to impact.
For Nanoform the last years were about making large investments and building a commercially licensed world-class particle engineering factory. The coming years are about preparing to launch nanoformed products together with partners onto the global markets. We’re eager and ready for the challenge. I look forward with confidence and excitement to the next years. None of this can be done without our amazing employees and great partners. My sincere THANK YOU to you all for your continued dedication to Nanoform and for the inspiring and innovative work for which we’re known.

Best Regards,
Prof. Edward Hæggström, CEO Nanoform

Significant events during 1-3/2026

• In January, Nanoform announced change negotiations as part of the new midterm business targets for 2030.
• In February, Nanoform announced that it had concluded the change negotiations, as a result of which 49 employees were made redundant. The remaining personnel in Finland were also subject to temporary part-time layoffs starting from March 1, 2026, with a maximum duration of six months. The company estimates that these measures would result in cost savings of approximately 5–6 million euros during 2026.
• In February, Nanoform announced the results from a preclinical study designed to compare the tolerability and pharmacokinetics of Nanotrastuzumab, a nanoformed, novel, hyaluronidase-free, non-aqueous nanoparticle suspension of trastuzumab for subcutaneous delivery versus Herceptin HYLECTA^TM, a co-formulated product with Halozyme’s proprietary hyaluronidase enzyme marketed by Roche/Genentech. Subcutaneous delivery of monoclonal antibodies, and other biological drugs, is the preferred delivery route due to patient convenience and healthcare system savings benefits. Limited availability of enabling delivery technologies has to-date constrained most biological drugs to be delivered as intravenous infusions. Nanoform’s proprietary particle engineering technology enables ultra-high concentration suspensions that may allow a substantial part of the biologics market to transition to subcutaneous and at-home delivery for patients. In a 21-day Göttingen minipig study run by Charles River Laboratories, Nanotrastuzumab’s AUC, Cmax and Tmax closely mirrored the reference product by Genentech / Roche. Nanotrastuzumab was well tolerated, supported by pathological, clinical and immunological readouts. Nanoform believes the data indicates that reference-like SC exposure may be achievable without hyaluronidase, expanding options for developers constrained by formulation, device, or IP/partnering considerations.
• In February, the Board of Directors of Nanoform decided to issue stock options to the personnel of Nanoform. The option program was open for participation by all employees at Nanoform on a voluntary basis as an alternative to the part time layoffs announced by the company earlier. The total number of option rights to be issued is at most 1,813,698. The stock options entitle to subscribe for at most 1,813,698 shares in Nanoform. Each stock option entitles to subscribe for one new share. The subscription price for shares subscribed with stock options is EUR 0.83 per share. The total subscription price of the shares shall be paid to the company’s fund for invested own free equity.
• In March, Nanoform announced that it had been notified by its development partners of feedback from a recent European scientific advice meeting around nanoenzalutamide. The purpose of the meeting was to confirm the overall regulatory strategy for Europe and the acceptability of the clinical data package supporting a submission of nanoenzalutamide, in view of its demonstrated reduction in food‑effect, which results in a deviation from standard bioequivalence requirements. Following the meeting, the authority acknowledged the strong scientific rationale and high-quality standards for the product and the supporting data package. Current legal and regulatory requirements do not, however, allow a hybrid generic application for nanoenzalutamide in its present form, as full compliance with all bioequivalence criteria is mandatory. Consequently, the authority advised evaluating alternative legal bases (regulatory pathway and filing type) and clarified the criteria under which nanoenzalutamide is eligible to proceed via a generic approval pathway. As a result, the previously planned dossier submission slot in May cannot be met, but Nanoform and its partners will evaluate available regulatory options that would enable European approval while aiming to minimize any potential delays. Decisions based on the evaluation of the scientific advice will be taken jointly with the commercial partners for nanoenzalutamide.
