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-macrophage colony-stimulating factor ("GM-CSF") in Phase 3 development for autoimmune pulmonary alveolar proteinosis (“aPAP”). The Company and its wholly-owned domestic and foreign subsidiaries operate in one segment with its principal office in Langhorne, Pennsylvania, though a significant portion of employees work remotely.

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 no product revenue from inception to date. The Company has not yet commenced commercial operations.

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, 2025 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, 2024. 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, 2024 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, 2025, the Company had an accumulated deficit of approximately $515.9 million, cash and cash equivalents of $19.6 million and short-term investments of $152.9 million. The Company used cash in operating activities of approximately $27.2 million during the three months ended March 31, 2025. The cost to further develop and obtain regulatory approval for any drug is substantial and, as noted below, the Company may have to take certain steps to maintain a positive cash position. Although the Company has sufficient capital to fund many of its planned activities, it may need to continue to raise additional capital to further fund the development of, and seek regulatory approvals for, its product candidate and begin to commercialize any approved product.

The Company is currently focused on the development of MOLBREEVI for the treatment of aPAP and believes such activities will result in the continued incurrence of significant research and development and other expenses related to this program. If the Company’s product candidate 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 financing will be available when needed or that, if available, financing will be obtained on terms favorable to the Company or its stockholders.

The Company’s cash and cash equivalents of $19.6 million and short-term investments of $152.9 million as of March 31, 2025 are sufficient to fund the Company’s operations for at least the next twelve months subsequent to the issuance date of these condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company may continue to raise additional capital as needed through the issuance of additional equity securities and potentially through borrowings and strategic alliances with partner companies. However, if such additional financing is 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, 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 December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures ("ASU 2023-09"), to require disaggregated information about a reporting entity’s effective tax rate reconciliation as well as information on income taxes paid. The amendments in this update should be applied prospectively, with an option to apply them retrospectively, and are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024 for public entities. 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.

In March 2024, the FASB issued ASU 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.

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.

There were no significant realized gains or losses related to investments for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024.

6. Debt Facility

On March 26, 2025 (the “Closing Date”), the Company, as borrower, entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (the “Hercules Loan Agreement”) with the lenders party thereto (the “Lenders”) and Hercules Capital, Inc., as administrative agent and collateral agent. The Hercules Loan Agreement provides for the Company to borrow up to $200 million of term loans (the “Term Loan”) that may be advanced in multiple tranches.

The initial advance of $30 million under the Hercules Loan Agreement was drawn on the Closing Date and used to repay all outstanding obligations under the Company’s prior term loan with Silicon Valley Bank ("SVB Loan"), to pay the Company’s expenses in connection with the Hercules Loan Agreement, and for general corporate purposes. The Company may make further draws in the following tranches: (i) subject to FDA approval of the Company’s MOLBREEVI product candidate for the treatment of aPAP (the “Approval Milestone”), (a) up to $40 million on or prior to March 15, 2026 and (b) up to $40 million on or prior to December 15, 2026; (ii) subject to the Company achieving a trailing six months' net product revenue from the sale of MOLBREEVI of at least seventy-five percent of an agreed upon revenue plan for any reporting period following March 31, 2027 (the “Revenue Milestone”), up to $20 million on or prior to December 31, 2027; and (iii) subject to approval by the Lenders’ investment committees, up to $70 million.

The Term Loan will mature April 1, 2030 (the “Maturity Date”). Amounts outstanding under the Term Loan bear interest at a floating rate equal to (i) the greater of (a) the prime rate reported in The Wall Street Journal or (b) 6.0%, plus (ii) 1.45%, or, subject to the Company meeting the Revenue Milestone, a 25 bps reduction in the interest rate after the full fiscal quarter following such achievement. The Term Loan has an interest-only monthly payment through March 2028 (the “Interest-Only Period”), and beginning April 1, 2028, requires equal monthly installments of principal plus interest until the Maturity Date. If the Company achieves the Approval Milestone, the Interest-Only period will extend until the Maturity Date.

The Company's obligations under the Hercules Loan Agreement are secured, subject to customary permitted liens and other agreed-upon exceptions, by a first-priority perfected security interest in all of the tangible and intangible assets of the Company, other than intellectual property, on which there is a negative pledge. The Hercules Loan Agreement includes customary affirmative and negative covenants, repayment terms, prepayment terms subject to a 1.0% or 2.0% penalty of the amount prepaid as determined when payment occurs following the Closing Date, a contingent prepayment requirement, with any prepayment penalties waived, upon the acquisition or change of control of the Company as defined within the Hercules Loan Agreement, representations and warranties, and events of default, consisting of some events not related to the creditworthiness of the Company, which if triggered, permits the Lenders to accelerate repayment of any outstanding loan amount at the Lenders' discretion. In the event any payment is not paid on the scheduled payment date or upon an aforementioned non-creditworthiness event of default, which may trigger a call feature by the Lenders, an amount equal to 4.0% of such past due amount shall be payable on demand (collectively, the "Default Penalty").

9


 

The Hercules Loan Agreement contains an affirmative covenant requiring the Company to maintain unrestricted cash under an account control agreement equal to 50% of the outstanding principal of the Term Loan beginning April 1, 2026 (the “Cash Requirement”), which will decrease to 35% upon achievement of the Revenue Milestone and compliance with the Conditional Minimum Revenue Covenant (defined below). However, if the Approval Milestone has not been achieved, the Cash Requirement increases to 70% of the outstanding principal until the Approval Milestone is achieved. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Cash Requirement will not apply during any period when the Company’s market capitalization exceeds $600 million.

Additionally, if the Company draws more than $50 million under the Term Loan, beginning nine months after achievement of the Approval Milestone, the Company will be required to have achieved, and to maintain, trailing six months of net product revenue of at least (i) 65% of a provided sales forecast or (ii) $100 million (“Conditional Minimum Revenue Covenant”). If the Company raises at least $75 million in net cash proceeds from the issuance of equity and/or upfront business development proceeds before June 30, 2026, the Conditional Minimum Revenue Covenant will not apply until 15 months after achievement of the Approval Milestone. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Conditional Minimum Revenue Covenant will not apply during any period when the Company’s market capitalization exceeds $500 million and the Company maintains minimum unrestricted cash under an account control agreement equal to 50% of the outstanding principal amount of the Term Loan.

The Company is obligated to pay customary closing fees, a facility charge equal to 0.5% of the initial tranche at Closing and upon any additional tranches drawn by the Company during the term of the Hercules Loan Agreement, and an end of term charge based upon the outstanding principal balance equal to 3.95% if repayment occurs within 24 months of Closing, 4.95% if repayment occurs after 24 months and before 36 months of Closing, 5.95% if repayment occurs after 36 months and before 48 months of Closing, and 6.95% if repayment occurs after 48 months from Closing.

As of March 31, 2025 approximately $0.5 million of fees consisting of legal, commitment and facility charges, paid to the Lenders were capitalized and will be amortized over the term of the Hercules Loan Agreement.

The Company has identified certain embedded features within the Hercules Loan Agreement. The Company assessed these features and determined the one feature related to Default Penalty interest due upon an event of default is required to be bifurcated from the debt and accounted for separately at fair value. As of the date of issuance and March 31, 2025, the Default Penalty does not have a discernable fair value and no amounts are recorded.

The Company accounted for the repayment of the SVB Loan as an extinguishment in accordance with the guidance in ASC 470-50 and recognized a loss associated with the extinguishment of approximately $0.5 million in other income (expense) in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss for the three months ended March 31, 2025.

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.

10


 

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 in-process research and development (“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, 2025 and 2024, the Company experienced an increase of approximately $0.4 million and a decrease of approximately $0.2 million, respectively, in the carrying value of IPR&D due to foreign currency translation.

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

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, 2025 and December 31, 2024 was as follows (in thousands):

8. Stockholders’ Equity

Evercore Common Stock Sales Agreement Termination

On July 6, 2021, the Company entered into a Sales Agreement with Evercore Group L.L.C. (“Evercore”), as sales agent (the “ATM Agreement”), permitting the Company to offer and sell up to an aggregate of $100.0 million of shares of its common stock, par value $0.001 per share, from time to time through Evercore in “at the market offerings” as defined in Rule 415 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

On March 31, 2025, pursuant to Section 12(b) of the ATM Agreement, the Company delivered written notice to Evercore that it was terminating the ATM Agreement, effective April 2, 2025. The Company is not subject to any termination penalties related to the termination of the ATM Agreement.

During the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, the Company did not sell any shares of common stock under the ATM Agreement.

9. Commitments and Contingencies

Manufacturing and Other Commitments and Contingencies

The Company is subject to various royalties and manufacturing and development payments related to its product candidate, MOLBREEVI. Under a manufacture and supply agreement with an active pharmaceutical ingredients (“API”) manufacturer for MOLBREEVI, as amended, the Company must make certain payments to the API manufacturer 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 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 the API manufacturer a royalty equal to low-single digits of the net sales in that country of products containing API supplied by the API manufacturer.

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 in any country, the Company will purchase from the API manufacturer 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 the API manufacturer exceeds a certain price charged by an alternative supplier, (ii) there is a shortage of supply, or (iii) API manufacturer at any time fails to materially fulfill a purchase order of the Company.

12


 

The Company is also subject to certain contingent milestone payments, disclosed in the following table, payable to the manufacturer of the nebulizer used to administer MOLBREEVI. In addition to these milestones, the Company will owe a royalty of three-and one-half percent (3.5%) to the manufacturer of the nebulizer based on net sales.

The following table summarizes manufacturing commitments and contingencies as of the period indicated (in thousands):

The milestone commitments disclosed in the table above reflect the activities that have (i) not been met or incurred; (ii) not been remunerated; and (iii) not accrued, as the activities are not deemed probable or reasonably estimable, as of March 31, 2025.

Further, in February 2024, the Company entered into a master services agreement with an additional manufacturer to provide development and manufacturing services related to API for the Company’s MOLBREEVI product candidate in accordance with the terms of separate scope of work agreements to be entered into by the parties and to perform a manufacturing campaign for process performance qualification of the API of MOLBREEVI. From inception, the total estimated accumulated fees the Company will have paid the second source manufacturer's services under that original master services agreement, work orders and subsequent change orders is $28.0 million. These costs are subject to various cancellation fees ranging from ten percent (10%) to one hundred percent (100%) of the cost of the respective activity based upon the timing of the commencement date and status of the activity.

Contract Research

As part of its development of MOLBREEVI for the treatment of aPAP, 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, a work order was executed with Parexel, under which they will provide services related to the IMPALA-2 trial. From inception of the the original work order and subsequent change orders, the Company will have paid Parexel service fees, pass-through expenses, and investigator fees estimated to be approximately $48.5 million over the course of the IMPALA-2 clinical trial and trial close-out activities.

In the second quarter of 2024, the Company initiated an open-label, multicenter clinical trial of MOLBREEVI in pediatric subjects with aPAP ("IMPACT") under a separate work order with Parexel. Pursuant to the IMPACT trial, Parexel has the opportunity to earn up to approximately $5.6 million in various milestone payments primarily dependent upon patient enrollment, site management, project oversight and the compliance with defined study protocols.

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.

10. Stock-Based Compensation

Equity Incentive Plans

The Company’s 2024 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “2024 Plan”) was adopted by the Company’s board of directors in March 2024, was approved by the Company’s stockholders on June 6, 2024, and became effective on June 7, 2024. The 2024 Plan was intended to replace the Company’s Amended and Restated 2015 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “2015 Plan”), and upon the effectiveness of the 2024 Plan, no further grants may be made under the 2015 Plan. All outstanding awards under the 2015 Plan will continue in accordance with the 2015 Plan and any award agreement executed in connection with such outstanding awards. The 2024 Plan provides for the grant of stock options (both incentive stock options and non-statutory stock options), stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units (“RSUs”), performance units, shares, and other stock-based awards. Stock-based awards are subject to terms and conditions established by the board of directors or the compensation committee of the board of directors. As of March 31, 2025, the number of shares of common stock available for grant under the 2024 Plan was 7,806,776 shares.

13


 

The Company’s 2021 Inducement Equity Incentive Plan (the “Inducement Plan”) was adopted by the Company’s board of directors in May 2021 and subsequently amended to increase the shares available for grant. The Inducement Plan provides for the grant of non-statutory stock options, restricted stock, RSUs, stock appreciation rights, performance units, and performance shares. Each award under the Inducement Plan is intended to qualify as an employment inducement grant in accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(c)(4). As of March 31, 2025, the number of shares of common stock available for grant under the Inducement Plan was 1,372,882 shares.

The Savara Inc. Stock Option Plan (the “2008 Plan”) was adopted in 2008, and the Company no longer issues awards under the 2008 Plan. As of March 31, 2025, the Company had options outstanding to purchase 139,332 shares of common stock under the 2008 Plan. The outstanding awards granted under the 2008 Plan are fully vested and generally have a maximum contractual term of ten years.

11. Segment Reporting

 

We follow the accounting guidance of ASC Topic 280, Segment Reporting, which establishes standards for companies to report in their financial statement information about operating segments, products, services, geographic areas, and major customers. Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise engaging in business activities for which separate financial information is available that is regularly evaluated by the Company’s chief operating decision-makers in deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance. The Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”)has been identified as the Chief Executive Officer, who reviews consolidated results including operating expenses and operating losses at a consolidated level only. The Company and its CODM do not distinguish between potential markets for the purpose of making decisions about resource allocation and performance assessment of its sole pre-revenue development program, MOLBREEVI, for the treatment of aPAP. Therefore, the Company has only one operating segment and one reportable segment, specialty pharmaceuticals within the respiratory system. The Company's only significant long-lived asset, IPR&D, is located in Denmark, and the Company currently does not generate any revenues and its operating expenses and losses are viewed on a consolidated basis by the CODM. Therefore, no

geographical segments are presented. In addition to the significant expense categories included on the Company's consolidated statements of operations, refer below for disaggregated amounts that comprise research and development expenses and the segment net loss (in thousands):

b)
Other segment income (expense), net includes interest income, interest expense, foreign currency exchange gain or loss, depreciation and amortization, non-cash stock-based compensation, loss on extinguishment of debt and tax credit income.

 

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:

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

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 between Russia and Ukraine and the war in the Middle East), the Company’s ability to maintain compliance with its covenants under its long-term debt instruments and those 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, 2024 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on March 27, 2025, 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, 2024.

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, is an investigational inhaled biologic, specifically, inhaled granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor ("GM-CSF") in Phase 3 development for autoimmune pulmonary alveolar proteinosis ("aPAP"). Savara previously announced positive top-line results from the Phase 3 clinical trial and, in March 2025, complete the submission of the Biological License Application ("BLA") to the FDA for MOLBREEVI. 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, 2025, we have raised net cash proceeds of approximately $597.9 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, 2025 and 2024 were $26.6 million and $20.3 million, respectively, and the net loss for the year ended December 31, 2024 was $95.9 million. As of March 31, 2025, we had an accumulated deficit of approximately $515.9 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.

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, 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, 2025, we had cash and cash equivalents of $19.6 million and short-term investments of $152.9 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

17


 

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.

Recent Events

 

BLA Submission Complete

 

On March 26, 2025, Savara announced that it had completed its submission of the BLA to the FDA for MOLBREEVI for the potential treatment of aPAP, a chronic and debilitating rare lung disease characterized by the abnormal build-up of surfactant in the alveoli of the lungs. This follows our reporting, in June 2024, of top line results from our pivotal IMPALA-2 trial for the treatment of aPAP that demonstrated improvement compared to placebo in gas exchange, as measured by diffusing capacity of the lungs for carbon monoxide, or DLCO, and clinical benefit, as measured by St. George’s Respiratory Questionnaire, or SGRQ, and exercise capacity, measured in peak METs. MOLBREEVI was well tolerated throughout the 48-weeks and no unexpected safety signals were seen. Previously, on December 18, 2024, the Company announced that it had initiated a rolling submission of a BLA to the FDA for MOLBREEVI. MOLBREEVI was also granted Fast Track and Breakthrough Therapy Designations by the FDA in 2019 for the treatment of patients with aPAP.

 

Debt Financing

 

On March 26, 2025, the Company announced that it had entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (the “Hercules Loan Agreement”) with the lenders party thereto (the “Lenders”) and Hercules Capital, Inc., as administrative agent and collateral agent. The Hercules Loan Agreement provides for the Company to borrow up to $200 million of term loans (the “Term Loan”) that may be advanced in multiple tranches. The initial advance of $30 million under the Hercules Loan Agreement was drawn on March 26, 2025 and used to repay all outstanding obligations under the Company’s Amended Loan Agreement with Silicon Valley Bank (the “SVB Loan”) as described in Note 6. Debt Facility and extinguish the Company’s obligations thereunder, to pay the Company’s expenses in connection with the Hercules Loan Agreement, including fees and expenses relating to termination of the SVB term loan, and for general corporate purposes. Further Term Loan draws may be made by the Company under the Hercules Loan Agreement as follows:

Subject to FDA approval of MOLBREEVI for the treatment of aPAP, the Company may draw (a) up to $40 million on or prior to March 15, 2026 and (b) up to $40 million on or prior to December15, 2026.
Subject to the Company achieving a trailing six months net product revenue from the sale of MOLBREEVI of at least seventy-five percent of an agreed upon revenue plan for any reporting period following March 31, 2027, the Company may draw up to $20 million on or prior to December 31, 2027.
Subject to approval by the Lenders’ investment committees, the Company may draw up to $70 million of additional funds.

 

Sales Agreement Termination

 

As previously discussed in Note 8. Stockholders’ Equity, on July 6, 2021, the Company entered into a Sales Agreement with Evercore Group L.L.C. (“Evercore”), as sales agent (the “ATM Agreement”), pursuant to which the Company may offer and sell up to an aggregate of $100.0 million of shares of its common stock, par value $0.001 per share, from time to time through Evercore in “at the market offerings” as defined in Rule 415 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

 

On March 31, 2025, pursuant to Section 12(b) of the ATM Agreement, the Company delivered written notice to Evercore that it was terminating the ATM Agreement, effective April 2, 2025. The Company is not subject to any termination penalties related to the termination of the ATM Agreement. Since December 31, 2024, no shares of common stock have been issued or sold pursuant to the ATM Agreement.

 

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:

expenses incurred under agreements with contract research organizations (“CROs”), consultants, and clinical trial sites that conduct research and development activities on our behalf;
laboratory and vendor expenses related to the execution of our clinical trials;

18


 

contract manufacturing expenses, primarily for the production of clinical supplies; and
internal costs that are associated with activities performed by our research and development organization, consist primarily of:
o
personnel costs, which include salaries, benefits, and stock-based compensation expense;
o
facilities and other expenses, which include expenses for maintenance of facilities and depreciation expense; and
o
regulatory expenses and technology license fees related to development activities.

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 clinical 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.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative ("G&A") expenses consist primarily of salaries, benefits, and related costs for personnel in executive, finance and accounting, legal, and investor relations; as well as professional and consulting fees for accounting, legal, investor relations, business development, human resources, and information technology services. Other G&A expenses include facility lease and insurance costs.

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, 2025, 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, 2024. 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, 2024, for further description of our critical accounting policies.

Research and Development

Research and development expenses increased by $2.4 million, or 14.0%, to $19.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 from $16.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024. This increase is primarily due to the performance of tasks related to our MOLBREEVI program with $2.3 million related to regulatory affairs and quality assurance, and $0.1 million in departmental overhead.

General and Administrative

General and administrative expenses increased by $3.6 million, or 64.1%, to $9.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 from $5.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024. The increase is due to personnel and related costs of $2.4 million, certain commercial activities of $0.8 million, and other departmental overhead of $0.4 million.

Other Income, Net

Other income, net decreased by $0.3 million to $1.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 from $2.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024. The decrease is primarily related to a loss on extinguishment of debt.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of March 31, 2025, we had $19.6 million of cash and cash equivalents, $152.9 million in short-term investments, and an accumulated deficit of approximately $515.9 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 which provides for a loan facility of up to $200 million. Proceeds from the initial $30 million tranche drawn under the Hercules Loan Agreement were used to repay all outstanding obligations under the SVB Loan, with a carrying value of $26.7 million, to 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 aPAP, we may draw future tranches under the Hercules Loan Agreement to fund our ongoing business operations including the development, regulatory approval, marketing and commercialization of MOLBREEVI.

Further, on March 31, 2025, pursuant to Section 12(b) of the ATM Agreement, the Company delivered written notice to Evercore that it was terminating the ATM Agreement, effective April 2, 2025.

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 our product candidate and general and administrative expenses. As we continue to progress on the IMPALA-2 trial, pursue regulatory approval, and invest in pre-commercial activities, we will continue to monitor our liquidity and capital requirements.

Cash flows from operating activities

 

Cash used in operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2025 was $27.2 million, consisting of a net loss of $26.6 million and net $3.1 million in changes due to operating assets and liabilities. This was partially offset by approximately $2.5 million of net noncash charges (comprised of depreciation and amortization including right-of-use assets, amortization of debt issuance costs, loss on extinguishment of debt, accretion on discount to short-term investments, and stock-based compensation).

Cash flows from investing activities

Cash used in investing activities of $29.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 was primarily associated with proceeds from maturities of short-term investments partially offset by purchases of short-term investments.

Cash flows from financing activities

Cash provided by financing activities of $2.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 was primarily the result of net proceeds from the Hercules Loan Agreement partially offset by repayment of the SVB Loan.

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.

As of March 31, 2025, we had cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments of approximately $172.5 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, 2025 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, 2024.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About 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.

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 8.95% on March 31, 2025. 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, 2025, were to have occurred, this change would not have had a material effect on our interest expense with respect to outstanding borrowed amounts.

We have vendors in Denmark and elsewhere in Europe and pay those vendors in local currency, Danish Krone, British Pound sterling or Euros, respectively. We did not recognize any significant exchange rate losses during the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024. A 10% change in the Euro-to-dollar, British Pound sterling-to dollar exchange rate or Krone-to-dollar exchange rate on March 31, 2025, would not have had a material effect on our results of operations or financial condition.

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.

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, 2025, 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, 2025, 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, 2025 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

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.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

In addition to the other information set forth in this Quarterly Report, you should carefully consider the risk factors and other cautionary statements described under the heading “Item 1A. Risk Factors” included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, and the risk factors and other cautionary statements contained in our other filings with the SEC, which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, or future results. Except as set forth below, there have been no material changes in our risk factors from those described in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, or our other SEC filings.

The Hercules Loan Agreement contains covenants which may adversely impact our business and the failure to comply with such covenants could cause our outstanding debt to become immediately payable or accelerate principal payments.

We are a party to the Hercules Loan Agreement, pursuant to which we have borrowed $30 million of term loans and may borrow up to an additional $170 million of term loans if we are able to satisfy the conditions precedent described under Note 6. Debt Facility of the consolidated financial statements in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q. As security for our borrowings under the Hercules Loan Agreement, we pledged substantially all of our assets other than our intellectual property (which is subject to a negative pledge). The Hercules Loan Agreement includes a number of restrictive covenants, including restrictions on incurring additional debt, making investments, granting liens, disposing of assets, paying dividends, and redeeming or repurchasing capital stock, and a number of affirmative covenants, including the Cash Requirement and the Conditional Minimum Revenue Covenant. Collectively, these covenants could constrain our ability to grow our business through acquisitions or engage in other transactions. The Hercules Loan Agreement includes customary events of default, such as our failure to pay amounts due, our failure to comply with covenants, or the occurrence of an event that would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse event on our business. Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an event of default, the Lenders could declare all outstanding loans under the Hercules Loan Agreement immediately due and payable and exercise remedies against us and the collateral. Such an event would have a material adverse effect on our liquidity, financial condition, operating results, business, and prospects and cause the price of our common stock to decline.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities, and Use of Proceeds.

None.

Item 3. Defaults Upon Senior Securities.

None.

Item 4. Mine Safety Disclosures.

Not applicable.

Item 5. Other Information.

Rule 10b5-1 Trading Plans

During the quarter ended March 31, 2025, no officer or director of the Company adopted or terminated any contract, instruction, or written plan for the purchase or sale of securities of the Company’s common stock that is intended to satisfy the affirmative defense conditions of Exchange Act Rule 10b5-1(c) or any non-Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement as defined in 17 CFR § 229.408(c).
