"We see a large market potential for Brixadi in the US with estimated annual peak sales of above USD 1 billion"
Camurus had a very successful second quarter with positive topline Phase 3 results for CAM2029 for treatment of acromegaly and an FDA approval of Brixadi for the treatment of opioid use disorder in the US as key highlights. Additionally, we strengthened our market leading position in opioid dependence treatment in Europe, MENA and Australia with strong growth and record Buvidal sales in the quarter. Based on our success with Buvidal, we see a large potential for Brixadi in the US market with currently close to two million people in medication assisted treatment. The product will be launched by our US licensing partner Braeburn in September, 2023.
The second quarter was Camurus' best quarter to date with total revenue amounting to SEK 674 million, an increase of 197 percent versus prior year same period, including USD 35 million in milestone revenue from Braeburn regarding the FDA approval of Brixadi weekly and monthly depots. Operating result for the quarter increased to a record of SEK 376 million from SEK 7 million in the second quarter of 2022.
Operating expenses increased by 38 percent to SEK 270 million, primarily due to the R&D investment into our advancing Phase 3 programs and related development milestone payments. The total R&D investment was 161 million SEK, which is historically high. The result for the period was SEK 301 million, an increase of SEK 293 million compared to the second quarter of 2022. At the end of the second quarter, the cash position was SEK 654 million, an increase of SEK 226 million compared to Q2 2022, and Camurus had no debt.
Net product sales in the quarter amounted to SEK 305 million, an increase of 36 percent compared to the second quarter of 2022 and 8 percent compared to the previous quarter. Buvidal continued to grow and show strength across our markets. The number of patients in treatment with Buvidal at the end of the quarter increased by approximately 3,000 to an estimated 42,000.
During the quarter, we continued to strengthen our leading position in the opioid dependence treatment market, with good growth noted across all markets. Product sales in established markets such as Australia, the Nordics and the UK continued to increase – with Finland and England continuing to show strength. In Germany, there was an important trend shift with sales increasing over 30 percent compared to 2022. In Austria, we secured a new price and reimbursement approval, which going forward should significantly increase patients' accessibility to Buvidal. Sales continued to grow across other markets, as knowledge and experience of treatment with Buvidal increased.
During the period, we continued to build the evidence base for Buvidal. Camurus contributed to several conferences as sponsors and co-presenters, including at the WADD 7th World
Congress on 28-30 April in Porotoz, Slovenia, the Albatros International Congress of Addictology on 7-9 June in Paris, France and the Interdisziplinärer Kongress für Suchtmedizin, on 29 June - 1 July in Munich, Germany. Seven new publications about Buvidal were published on topics ranging from treatment in the custodial settings, patients' treatment experiences, pain management, as well as pregnancy and opioid dependence treatment.
On 23 May, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) announced the approval of Brixadi for the treatment of opioid use disorder in the US.1,2 According to the FDA Commissioner Robert M. Califf, M.D., "Today's approval expands dosing options and provides people with opioid use disorder a greater opportunity to sustain long-term recovery."1 This was a long-awaited announcement, and we now look forward to Brixadi becoming available to US patients in September. Our US licensing partner Braeburn have informed that they are well prepared for this important launch. Based on the high unmet medical need, the strong product profile, and successes of Buvidal in Europe and Australia, we see a large market potential for Brixadi in the US with estimated annual peak sales of above USD 1 billion.
In the second quarter of 2023 we also had significant success in our ongoing pivotal program of octreotide subcutaneous depot (CAM2029) being developed for the treatment of three rare chronic conditions: acromegaly, gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (GEP-NET) and polycystic liver disease (PLD).
In the acromegaly program, positive topline results were announced from ACROINNOVA 1, a 24-week, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase 3 study, evaluating CAM2029, octreotide subcutaneous (SC) monthly depot 20 mg, for the treatment of adults with acromegaly. CAM2029 is being developed for convenient subcutaneous once-monthly administration with a prefilled syringe or injection pen to allow for easy self-administration by the patient. ACROINNOVA 1 enrolled 72 patients on stable treatment with standard of care with octreotide LAR3 or lanreotide ATG4, who were randomized in a 2:1 ratio to treatment with CAM2029 or placebo. The Phase 3 study met both the primary and the key secondary endpoints of insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) and growth hormone (GH) control, including all predetermined sensitivity and supportive analyses. Importantly, patient-reported treatment satisfaction and quality of life were significantly improved after treatment with CAM2029 compared to standard treatment at study baseline.
After the period, additional positive topline Phase 3 results were announced from the ongoing long-term safety extension trial of CAM2029 in patients with acromegaly, ACROINNOVA 2. The results confirmed a favorable safety profile after one year of treatment with CAM2029 and a high degree of biochemical control of the established biomarker IGF-1. In the total population, the proportion of patients with normalized IGF-1 values increased after one year of treatment with CAM2029 compared to baseline with standard of care. Furthermore, the study showed that patients randomized to placebo for six months in ACRO-INNOVA 1 (considered treatment naive patients) achieved biochemical control after being transferred to active treatment with CAM2029 in the extension-part of the study. In addition to long-
term biochemical control, ACROINNOVA 2 demonstrated significant improvements in acromegaly symptoms, increased patient satisfaction and improved quality of life over time compared to standard treatment at baseline.
Overall, we are very pleased with the results from the ACRO-INNOVA program, and we are preparing for the submission of a new drug application (NDA) for CAM2029 for the treatment of acromegaly to the FDA around the turn of the year.
In addition to the completion of our Phase 3 studies, we attended two key endocrinology meetings in the US: the International Pituitary Congress, 12-14 June, 2023, and ENDO, 15-18 June, 2023, both in Chicago, US, where ACROINNOVA 1 study design was presented by our principal investigator of the study, Professor Diego Ferone, MD, PhD.
In the GEP-NET program, the recruitment and treatment of patients in SORENTO, a randomized, active-controlled Phase 3 study of CAM2029, continued. The main goal of the study is to demonstrate significantly improved progression-free survival with CAM2029 compared to standard of care with octreotide LAR or lanreotide ATG. Randomization now reached 200 patients out of a target of 302 patients. The goal is to recruit the remaining patients during the second half of the year and then to accumulate the 194 progression events required for the read out of the primary endpoint.
In the PLD program, patient recruitment and treatment continued in the ongoing randomized, double-blind, placebo- * Brixadi™ is the US brand name for Camurus' product Buvidal® controlled Phase 2/3 study of CAM2029. In total, about 30 of
planned 69 patients have now been enrolled in the study. To accelerate the completion of recruitment, new clinical centers have been activated during the period. The study's primary and first secondary endpoints consist of stabilization and reduction of liver volume and reduction of disease symptoms. Topline results are expected towards the end of 2024.
We see significant commercial opportunities with CAM2029 in the US with an estimated sales potential of just over USD 2 billion in annual sales across the three indications. In addition to clinical and regulatory activities, during the period we have worked to establish our own commercial organization in the US and entered into a cooperation agreement with a third-party organization specialized in launch and commercialization processes to complement our own organization in areas such as market access, marketing, and distribution. The goal is to be ready for launch of CAM2029 in the US during the fourth quarter of 2024.
In addition to advancing our own Phase 3 programs, our partner Rhythm is on track to complete the first Phase 3 study of setmelanotide weekly depot for the treatment of the genetically determined obesity disease, including Bardet Biedl's syndrome. The product is based on our FluidCrystal® technology and study results are expected in the second half of the year. In addition, we have three research collaborations ongoing with international pharmaceutical companies to develop and evaluate new potential product candidates for the treatment of severe and chronic diseases, as well as several of our own early development programs.
We also continue to strengthen our sustainability work. Camurus has been accepted as a participant of the United Nations Global Compact (UNGC) with the commitment to contribute to the UNGC's ten principles within the areas of human rights, labor law, environment, and anti-corruption, and we have continued to strengthen our reporting in these areas. Furthermore, we supported two global campaigns to address stigma and opioid dependence, one of which focused on reducing stigma and improving access to treatment for women – an underrepresented group in treatment programs.
We had an outstanding second quarter with strong revenue growth, record result, FDA approval, and positive Phase 3 results from our pivotal study in patients with acromegaly, ACROINNOVA 1. After the period, positive Phase 3-data from ACROINNOVA 2 confirmed and strengthened our view on the beneficial treatment effect and safety profile of CAM2029.
Camurus stands stronger than ever with high organic growth, growing profitability, an imminent launch of Brixadi in the US, and our own Phase 3 programs on their way to market. Financially, we expect full year revenues and profit before taxes in the mid to high end of current guidance.
Finally, I would like to take the opportunity to thank employees and partners for the commitment and great performances that lie behind our continued success, and our board and shareholders for your support.
Wishing you all a pleasant summer.
Fredrik Tiberg President and CEO
Camurus has an advanced and diversified pipeline of innovative investigational and marketed medical products for the treatment of serious and chronic diseases. New products are conceived based on extensive R&D expertise and applying the company's proprietary injection depot technology, FluidCrystal®, to active substances with available positive clinical data on efficacy and safety. As a result, new proprietary medicines with improved treatment outcomes and patient benefits can be developed both in a shorter time and to a lower cost, as well as with lower risk compared to the development of new chemical substances.


Buvidal (buprenorphine) prolonged-release solution for injection is used for the treatment of opioid dependence within a framework of medical, social and psychological treatment, in adults and adolescents aged 16 years and over.1 Buvidal is available as weekly and monthly formulations in multiple dose options, offering the flexibility to tailor treatment to patients' different individual needs. Buvidal provides fast onset and a long-acting release of buprenorphine, and has shown to effectively reduce illicit drug use, withdrawal and cravings.2 Buvidal has also been demonstrated to block effects of injected opioids, thereby potentially reducing the risk of relapse and overdose.3 Clinical studies and real-world experience have demonstrated significant improved patient-reported outcomes, including higher treatment satisfaction, reduced treatment burden, and improved quality of life for patients with Buvidal compared to standard treatment with daily sublingual buprenorphine.2,4,5 Furthermore, since Buvidal is administrated by healthcare professionals only, the risk for misuse and leakage is reduced compared to products that have to be taken daily.1

LIFE-CYCLE MANAGEMENT PROGRAMS
There is a high unmet medical need in chronic pain, particularly among patients who have or who are at risk of developing dependency on opioids. In addition to the approved indication for the treatment of opioid dependence, CAM2038 is being developed for the treatment of chronic pain.
CAM2038 has been evaluated in a Phase 2 study in patients with chronic non-cancer pain and opioid dependence, in a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled 12-week Phase 3 study in opioid experienced patients with chronic low-back pain, and in a 12-month long-term efficacy and safety study also including patients with other chronic pain conditions.
CAMURUS INTERIM REPORT FOR THE SECOND QUARTER 2023

PROGRESS IN KEY PIPELINE PROGRAMS Status Q2 2023
CAM2029 is a novel subcutaneous octreotide depot under development for the treatment of three rare diseases: acromegaly, gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (GEP-NET) and polycystic liver disease (PLD). Studies completed to date demonstrate that CAM2029 provides a five-fold increase of plasma exposure, with the potential for improved efficacy, compared to current standard treatments. CAM2029 is designed to enable convenient subcutaneous self-administration, using a pre-filled syringe with safety device or stateof-the-art pre-filled pen, while current standard treatments are administrated intramuscularly or deep subcutaneously with large needles, require complex handling in several steps, including reconstitution and/or conditioning, and generally are administrated by a trained healthcare professional.16,17

CAM2043 is a long-acting subcutaneous treprostinil formulation developed as a patient-friendly and effective treatment option for people with pulmonary arterial hypertension and Raynaud's phenomenon, secondary to systemic sclerosis.
CAM4072 is a weekly formulation of the MC-4 agonist setmelanotide, developed by Camurus' partner Rhythm Pharmaceuticals, for the treatment of a range of rare genetic disorders of obesity. The product candidate is based on Camurus' FluidCrystal injection depot technology and is being developed to offer patients a simpler and more convenient dosing regimen with the possibility of improved treatment adherence.

• Phase 2 study results in Raynaud's phenomenon presented at the British Society for Rheumatology meeting, 24-25 April in Manchester, UK
In addition to developing and commercializing new innovative medical products for the treatment of severe and chronic diseases, Camurus is focusing on diversification through business development and partnerships as well as strengthening of our organization and agenda for sustainable value creation.
During the period, preparations continued for the coming launch of CAM2029 in the US. Camurus Inc. is now operational and Camurus entered into a cooperation agreement with a third-party organization specialized in pre-launch and commercialization processes to complement Camurus' own organization with resources within the areas of market access, marketing and distribution.
Camurus' financial position was significantly strengthened during the quarter with growing Buvidal product sales and milestone revenues for the FDA approval of Brixadi in the US. The cash position has further improved, and the company is well positioned for continued investment in sustainable growth and profitability.
• Alberto M. Pedroncelli, MD, PhD, assumed the role as new Chief Medical Officer (CMO) and member of the executive management team on 1 June, 2023

Camurus' commitment to improve the lives of patients has a clear sustainability perspective. Based on the company's ambition to contribute to a healthier world, the work includes several dimensions of the ESG-area. Camurus' sustainability strategy and work is divided into four focus areas with established ambitions, goals, key figures and activities and aims to contribute to the UN's Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

Camurus AB, corp. ID No. 556667-9105 is the parent company of the Camurus group and has its registered office based in Lund, Sweden, at Ideon Science Park, 223 70 Lund. Camurus AB group's interim report for the second quarter 2023 has been approved for publication by the Board of Directors and the Chief Executive Officer.
All amounts are stated in SEK thousands (KSEK), unless otherwise indicated. Figures in brackets refer to the year-earlier period.
The consolidated financial statements for the Camurus AB group ("Camurus") have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as adopted by the EU, as well as the Swedish Financial Reporting Board's Recommendation RFR 1 Supplementary Accounting Rules for groups, and the Swedish Annual Account Act.
This interim report has been drawn up in accordance with IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting, the Swedish Annual Accounts Act and RFR 1 Supplementary Accounting Rules for groups.
The parent company statements have been prepared in accordance with the Annual Accounts Act and recommendation RFR 2 Accounting for legal entities from the Swedish Financial Reporting Board. The application of RFR 2 means that the parent company in the interim report for the legal entity shall apply all EU-approved IFRS standards and statements as far as possible within the framework of the Annual Accounts Act, the Pension Obligations Vesting Act (Tryggandelagen) and taking into consideration the relationship between accounting and taxation. The parent company's accounting policies are the same as for the group, unless otherwise stated in Note 2.2.
The most important accounting policies that are applied in the preparation of these consolidated financial statements are detailed below and are the same and consistent with those used in the preparation of the Annual Report 2022, see www.camurus.com/investors/financial-reports.
No new or revised IFRS standards, with any material impact on the group, have come into force.
Derivatives are reported in the balance sheet on the transaction day and are valued at fair value, both initially and in subsequent revaluations at the end of each reporting period. The group does not apply hedge accounting and all changes in the fair value of derivative instruments are reported directly in the income statement as Other operating income or Other operating expenses. Derivatives are reported in the balance sheet as Other receivables and Other liabilities.
The parent company applies accounting policies that differ from those of the group in the cases stated below.
All expenses that relate to the development of internally generated intangible assets are recognized as expenses as they arise.
Interests in subsidiaries are reported at cost, less any impairment losses. The cost includes acquisition-related expenses and any additional considerations. When there is an indication that interests in subsidiaries have decreased in value, a calculation is made of the recoverable amount. If this amount is lower than the reported amount, an impairment is carried out. Impairment losses are recognized under the item "Result from interest in group companies".
Group contributions paid by the parent company to subsidiaries and group contributions received from subsidiaries by the parent company are recognized as appropriations.
IFRS 9 "Financial instruments" addresses the classification, measurement and recognition of financial assets and liabilities and is applied with the exceptions that RFR 2 allows, i.e. at amortized cost.
Derivatives with a negative fair value are reported in the balance sheet as Other liabilities and changes in the fair value of derivative instruments are reported directly in the income statement on the line Other operating income or Other operating expenses. Derivatives with a positive fair value are reported at the lower of acquisition value and fair value.
Camurus has one subscription warrant program (TO) active for the company's employees. The program was adopted by the Annual General Meeting (AGM) in 2020.
The warrants are valued by an independent institute in accordance with Black & Scholes model and are acquired by the participants at market value.
As part of the program, the participants receive a threepiece stay-on bonus from the company in form of gross salary additions equivalent to the amount paid by the participant for the subscription warrants. The stay-on bonus is conditional on continued employment. Costs including social security fee, are based on how much has been earned, and are expensed over the vesting period. Expenses are recognized as personnel cost in the income statement.
Camurus has three Employee Stock Options Programs (ESOP) active for the company´s employees. The programs were adopted by the Annual General Meeting (AGM) in 2021, 2022 and 2023.
The options are granted free of charge and have a term approximately between three and four years from the grant date. Once vested, the options can be exercised during the exercise period provided that the participant is still employed. Each vested option gives the holder the right to acquire one share in Camurus at a pre-defined price corresponding to 125 or 130 percent of the volume-weighted average price for the company's share on Nasdaq Stockholm during the ten trading days immediately following the respective company's AGM in which the program was adopted.
The ESOP 2021/2024 program comprises a maximum of 1,215,500 employee stock options, ESOP 2022/2026 a maximum of 1,000,000 employee stock options and the ESOP 2023/2026 program comprises a maximum of 200,000 employee stock options.
The fair value of the service that entitles to the allotment of options through the program is reported as a personnel cost with a corresponding increase in equity. The total amount to be expensed is based on the fair value of the employee stock options granted, including the share target price, and that the employee remains in the company's service during the exercise period. The total cost is reported over the vesting period. At the end of each reporting period, the company reconsiders its assessment of how many options are expected to be exercised and the difference is reported in the income statement and a corresponding adjustment is made in equity. As a basis for allocating social security contributions, a revaluation of fair value is continuously made for the employee stock options earned at the end of each reporting period. Social security contributions are reported as personnel costs and the corresponding provision is made under long- or short-term liabilities depending on the remaining term.
In total 1,875,066 employee options have been granted since programs launch, of which 102,000 to the CEO and 351,500 to other senior executives.
The fair value of the options when implementing the program have been calculated using Black & Scholes' valuation model, which takes into account the exercise price, the term of the option, the share price on the allotment date and the expected volatility in the share price and risk-free interest for the option.
For further information about the programs, see the minutes from the 2021, 2022, and 2023 Annual General Meetings published on the company's website, www.camurus.com/investors/ corporategovernance/general-meetings.
Full exercise of allotted warrants and employee stock options as of 30 June, 2023 corresponds to a total of 2,040,191 shares and would result in a dilution of shareholders with 3.68 percent, for more information see the below summary.
If decided, but not yet granted employee options are fully exercised, a further total of 180,000, the total dilution of shareholders would increase to 4.00 percent.

The company management makes estimates and assumptions about the future. Such estimates can deviate considerably from the actual outcome, since they are based on various assumptions and experiences.
The estimates and assumptions that may lead to the risk of significant adjustments to reported amounts for assets and liabilities relate mainly to measurement and allocation of revenues and costs in connection with licensing agreements and deferred tax receivables. Risks in ongoing development projects comprise technical and manufacturing related risks (including products failing to meet set specifications post manufacturing), safety and effect-related risks that can arise in clinical trials, regulatory risks relating to non-approval or delays of clinical trial applications and market approvals, and commercial risks relating to the sale of proprietary and competing products and their development on the market, as well as IP risks relating to approval of patent applications and patent protection. In addition, there are risks relating to the development, strategy and management decisions of Camurus' partners. There is also a risk that differences of opinion will arise between Camurus and its partners or that such partners do not meet their contractual commitments.
Camurus pursues operations and its business on the international market and the company is therefore exposed to currency risks, since revenues and costs arise in different currencies, mainly AUD, EUR, GBP, NOK, SEK, and USD.
The group reports a deferred tax asset of MSEK 234.1 as of 30 June, 2023. The deferred tax asset is calculated on the basis that Camurus AB's entire losses carried forward will be utilized against taxable surpluses in the future. The basic circumstance leading the company to make this assessment is that the company, for the development of new drug candidates, utilizes its own proprietary and regulatory validated long-acting FluidCrystal® injection depot. By combining this technology with already existing active drug substances whose efficacy and safety profile previously has been documented, new proprietary drugs with improved properties and treatment results can be developed in shorter time, at a lower cost and risk compared to the development of completely new drugs.
Accounting for deferred tax assets according to IFRS requires that it is probable that taxable surpluses will be generated in the future which the losses carried forward can be used against. In addition, a company that has reported losses in recent periods must be able to demonstrate convincing factors that taxable profits will be generated. The progress made in the commercialization of CAM2038 plus the development of CAM2029 at the time the company has reached its first fully profitable year is what convincingly suggests that the company will be able to utilize its losses carried forward.
Future revenues will mainly be generated from Camurus' own sales organization in markets where Camurus has own commercialization capabilities, and through partnerships for markets where Camurus has outlicensed FluidCrystal and/or product candidates or products, such as Buvidal.
Losses carried forward are only reported in Sweden and without any due dates based on current tax legislation in Sweden.
A more detailed description of the group's risk exposure is included in Camurus Annual Report 2022 (The Director's Report).
The Board of Directors has not changed its outlook about future risk and uncertainties development in relation to their outlook published in the Annual Report 2022.
The highest executive decision maker is the function responsible for allocating resources and assessing the operating segments results. In the group this function is identified as the CEO based on the information he manages. As the operations in the group, i.e. the development of pharmaceutical products based on Camurus' technology platform, is organized as an integrated unit, with similar risks and opportunities for the products and services produced, the entire group's business constitutes one operating segment. The operating segment is monitored in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision maker. In the internal reporting to the CEO, only one segment is used.
To follow is a breakdown of revenues from all products and services.

Earnings per share before dilution is calculated by dividing the result attributable to shareholders of the parent company by a weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period. During the period, no shares held as treasury shares by the parent company have been repurchased.
In order to calculate earnings per share after dilution, the number of existing ordinary shares is adjusted for the dilutive effect of the weighted average number of outstanding ordinary shares. The parent company has one category of ordinary shares with anticipated dilution effect in the form of warrants and options. For this category, a calculation is made of the number of shares that could have been purchased at fair value (calculated as the average market price for the year for the parent company's shares), at an amount corresponding to the monetary value of the subscription rights linked to outstanding warrants and options. The number of shares calculated as above are compared to the number of shares that would have been issued assuming the warrants and options are exercised.

All of the group's financial instruments that are measured at amortized cost are short-term and expire within one year. The fair value of these instruments is deemed to correspond to their reported amounts, since discounting effects are minimal.
Financial assets and liabilities in the group that are reported at fair value consist of derivatives (currency futures). All derivatives are included in level 2 when valuing at fair value, which means that fair value is determined using valuation techniques that are based on market information as much as possible, while company-specific information is used as little as possible. All significant input data required for the fair value measurement of an instrument is observable. The fair value of forward exchange contracts is determined as the present value of future cash flows based on exchange rates for forward exchange contracts on the balance sheet date.
