CEO comments

The third quarter of 2025 has been characterized by significant scientific, clinical, and strategic developments that reinforce Alligator's leadership in tumor-directed immuno-oncology, while also highlighting the importance of securing long-term funding to realize the full potential of our pipeline.

Unprecedented final results from OPTIMIZE-1

This quarter, we reported the final 30-month survival follow-up from the OPTIMIZE-1 trial. The results confirm mitazalimab's ability to deliver durable clinical benefit, with a meaningful proportion of patients achieving long-term survival beyond two years — an unprecedented outcome in metastatic pancreatic cancer. Together with the recently publish biomarker data, these findings further strengthen our confidence in mitazalimab's transformative potential and provide a solid foundation as we prepare to advance into a pivotal Phase 3 trial together with a future partner.

Advancing pipeline through scientific progress and strategic collaborations

In parallel, OPTIMIZE-1 is now closing out, reducing future costs. We also completed commercial manufacturing under GMP, securing supply for the pivotal trial while lowering manufacturing expenses. Mitazalimab's scientific foundation was also reinforced through the publication of new biomarker data in Cell Reports Medicine following the quarter and the presentation of preclinical findings on ATOR-4066 at the CICON congress as well as publication of data in Cancer Immunology Research.

As a consequence of the clinical data in pancreatic cancer, Alligator continues to receive proposals for investigatorinitiated trials from leading hospitals and oncologists. While we cannot engage in all, we strategically support select studies such as CROCOBIL and APHRODITE. These trials are designed to strengthen understanding of mitazalimab's mechanism-ofaction, expand its potential in pancreatic cancer, and explore new indications.

Our partnered program HLX22 also advanced this quarter, as Henlius dosed the first U.S. patient in a global Phase 3 trial in gastric cancer. HLX22 has orphan drug designation in both the U.S. and EU, and continues to represent a potential source of future milestone payments and royalty revenues to Alligator.

Partnering and innovation

During the quarter, we signed an evaluation and option agreement with a company in infectious diseases for our RUBY™ bispecific antibody format. This agreement demonstrates the versatility of Alligator's antibody engineering capabilities beyond oncology and creates a potential new avenue for value creation, and lays the foundation for a potential future revenue stream.

At the same time, we continue to advance discussions with potential partners for mitazalimab. While no agreement has yet been concluded, we remain in active dialogue with both global pharma and biotech companies. Our presence at industry and investor events during the year and the quarter has further strengthened these interactions and reinforced the growing interest in mitazalimab's clinical profile and Phase 3 readiness.

Financial position and shareholder support

We are grateful for the strong support from our shareholders, latest demonstrated in the TO 13 warrant program, which was exercised to approximately 91.7 percent and provided Alligator with proceeds of SEK 28.1 million (gross). The upcoming rights issue of approximately SEK 120 million (gross), together with the renegotiations of the loan agreement with Fenja, will provide Alligator with 6–9 months of financial runway in 2026, enabling us to advance partnership discussions, prepare for mitazalimab's transition into Phase 3 development, and fully realize the potential of mitazalimab and our pipeline. We are mindful of the continued commitment this represents for our shareholders and remain appreciative of their support.

Looking ahead

With continued clinical progress, reinforced scientific validation, and active business development, Alligator has built a strong scientific and clinical foundation. While we remain focused on securing the financial resources needed to advance our programs, we are determined to initiate the Phase 3 trial of mitazalimab with a future partner, expand the impact of our pipeline, and deliver innovative immunotherapies to patients with hard-to-treat cancers. With OPTIMIZE-1 now closing out and CMC activities completed, our costs have been reduced and our burn rate significantly lowered — giving us greater flexibility to focus on the future and the transformative potential of our science.

Market overview

Cancer remains one of the world's greatest health challenges, with incidence rising globally and patient outcomes often limited despite treatment advances. The need for more effective and better tolerated therapies continues to grow, particularly in aggressive solid tumors.

The oncology and immuno-oncology market

Oncology is the fastest growing segment of the global pharmaceutical market, with drug sales expected to nearly double by 2030.¹ Immuno-oncology continues to drive this expansion, supported by the success of checkpoint inhibitors and next-generation antibody-based approaches. Biologics, including agonistic antibodies such as those developed by Alligator, face less direct competition than small molecules due to manufacturing complexity and the regulatory requirements for biosimilar development.²

Pancreatic cancer

Pancreatic cancer accounts for nearly half a million new cases annually worldwide and is associated with very poor prognosis.³ Only a minority of patients are eligible for curative surgery, and for the majority, chemotherapy remains the mainstay of treatment. Median survival without treatment is around six months, and current first-line regimens such as FOLFIRINOX, gemcitabine/nab-paclitaxel, and the more recently approved NALIRIFOX provide median overall survival of 8–11 months.⁴ ⁵ Despite incremental progress, long-term survival remains rare, underscoring the urgent medical need. The strong Phase 2 results for mitazalimab in combination with FOLFIRINOX demonstrate the potential to change treatment practice by offering more durable survival benefits for patients with metastatic pancreatic cancer.

Market outlook

The pancreatic cancer drug market across the eight major markets is expected to expand strongly, growing from approximately USD 2.2 billion in 2024 to over USD 10 billion in 2034, a compound annual growth rate of more than 16%.⁶ Growth will be driven by rising incidence and the launch of innovative therapies, including immunotherapies. Alligator believes that mitazalimab has the potential to become a blockbuster drug, with peak annual sales estimated in the range of USD 1–2 billion, depending on clinical performance and competitive dynamics.

Competitive landscape

The pancreatic cancer market is highly competitive, with both large pharmaceutical companies and smaller biotechs advancing novel treatments. Independent assessments rank mitazalimab favorably, with competitive clinical and commercial potential compared to many programs from larger players. This underlines Alligator's ability, as a focused biotech, to advance a first-in-class CD40 agonist with meaningful differentiation in a challenging indication.⁷

Market overview, cont.

Market trends

Alligator assesses that the need and demand for novel immunotherapy drugs will increase moving forward. The main market trends identified by Alligator are as follows:

• Growing number of applications for immunotherapy:

Alligator's assessment is that immunotherapies have a potential to revolutionize cancer treatment. Immunotherapies were first used to treat malignant melanoma, but as of today, they are approved for numerous kinds of cancers, including kidney, head and neck, gastric, lung and bladder cancer as well as lymphoma. Alligator also sees an opportunity for immunotherapies to play a role in pancreatic cancer, supported by the encouraging Phase 2 results for mitazalimab.

• The need for combination therapies:

Although the emergence of immunotherapies has significantly improved cancer treatments over the past decade, only 15-25% of patients experience a lasting clinical effect with current treatments. To improve the result of treatments, combination therapies, which combine different treatment modalities, have become the cornerstone of cancer treatment. Alligator believes that the scope of combination therapies will increase significantly during the next couple of years. With its unique effect and safety profile, Alligator's antibody drugs, including mitazalimab in combination with FOLFIRINOX, are well suited for such strategies.

• Partnerships between pharmaceutical companies:

Partnerships are increasing between Big Pharma and small research-based biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies in drug discovery and development. The cost of drug development is high, which is why small researchbased pharmaceutical companies often choose to license their products to Big Pharma before large-scale clinical studies are carried out. Big Pharma then carries out the clinical studies that are required and commercialize the drug in the global market. This streamlines the product development process from concept to commercialization and distributes the risks between the parties. The research-based biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies also receive early returns in terms of upfront and milestone payments linked to development. In addition, licensing contracts usually entitle the small companies to sales-related milestone payments and royalties on sales, which secures long-term revenues.

• Demographic trend:

Driven by demographic trends such as population aging in developed countries and rising incomes along with improved access to, and more widespread use of, drugs in emerging markets, Alligator expects the total pharmaceutical market to grow.

• Increased expenditure and investment:

In the years ahead, Alligator expects that expenditure will increase, especially in developed countries, due to higher costs for drugs in novel and expensive therapies and a higher price per product in some countries. In addition, development in, for example, developing countries is expected to increase in the years ahead, due to improvements in social safety nets and private insurance.

• Improved access to medicines:

Alligator assesses that global access to medicines will increase. The increase will be driven by a more considerable use of more expensive, patented original drugs in developed countries, more widespread use of cheaper alternatives when patents expire and improved access to medicines in developing countries.

Operations

Alligator believes that for a company like Alligator, economic value is mainly created by out-licensing drug candidates at clinical study stage. Final Phase 3 clinical development as well as marketing and sales is foreseen to primarily be undertaken by Alligator's partners.

Discovery strategy and technology platform

Alligator has developed tumor-directed immunotherapies with a focus on active therapies that provide long-lasting tumor-specific immunity. The technologies form the basis for all drug candidates in our pipeline. Alligator's technologies and know-how provide additional value-creating opportunities through potential collaboration and licensing agreements with third parties.

Preclinical development strategy

The preclinical studies carried out at Alligator have evaluated the safety and toxicity of the antibodies and increased Alligator's understanding of the mechanism of action in more complex systems. The latter is crucial for the design of clinical studies. Preclinical studies are required for permission to commence clinical studies, and something that Alligator transfers to external parties in the event of a need for additional activities.

Manufacturing

Alligator entrusts the production of clinical trial materials to Contract Development and Manufacturing Organizations (CDMOs), an approach that enables Alligator to leverage specialized expertise and advanced technology and ensures both efficient and high-quality development processes. Alligator works continuously with manufacturing related issues throughout the entire development process. Alligator is ultimately responsible of the manufacturing conducted by a CDMO.

Clinical development strategy

Alligator has the expertise and capacity to design and conduct clinical studies up to and including clinical proofof-concept in Phase 2. Alligator also has the medical and regulatory expertise and ability to analyze clinical data in preparation for late-phase clinical studies. The operational aspects of the clinical development process have been contracted to Clinical Research Organizations (CRO), which also makes it possible to conduct clinical studies in several different countries. Alligator is continuously involved in all clinical development steps. Alligator is ultimately responsible for all work performed by a contracted CRO.

Business development strategy

Alligator conducts business development to generate nondilutive income for the shareholders through out-licensing of antibodies and drug candidates, mainly in the preclinical or clinical phase, or further development through collaboration.

We believe our commitment to sustainability, transparency and diversity drives our immuno-oncology innovation. From sustainable operations to fostering an inclusive culture, we are working towards our common goal of delivering best-in-class treatments for patients with hard-to-treat cancers.

Project portfolio – mitazalimab

Long-term survival in pancreatic cancer

Mitazalimab is a CD40-targeting stimulatory antibody that activates dendritic cells key players in initiating anti-tumor immune responses. By enhancing dendritic cell function, mitazalimab enables a more effective, tumor-specific activation of T cells. Preclinical studies have shown robust immune activation, long-lasting tumor immunity, and potential for use across multiple cancer types and in combination with chemotherapy, vaccines, and checkpoint inhibitors.

Early clinical results for mitazalimab have confirmed its safety and tolerability, as well as provided biomarker evidence of immune activation. These findings laid the foundation for the Phase 2 OPTIMIZE-1 trial.

OPTIMIZE-1 – a Phase 3-enabling study

OPTIMIZE-1 is an open-label, multi-center Phase 2 trial evaluating mitazalimab in combination with mFOLFIRINOX in previously untreated metastatic pancreatic cancer. Over the course of the study, mitazalimab has consistently demonstrated encouraging clinical activity, and the final results reported in September 2025 now confirm its strong potential as a transformative treatment in this aggressive disease.

At the final read-out, following a median follow-up of 33 months, OPTIMIZE-1 confirmed both primary and secondary efficacy endpoints with outcomes that compare favorably to historical benchmarks8,9:

  • Objective response rate (ORR): 54.4% (42.1% confirmed)
  • Median duration of response (DoR): 12.6 months
  • Median progression-free survival (PFS): 7.8 months
  • Median overall survival (OS): 14.9 months
  • OS rates: 58% at 12 months, 37% at 18 months, 26% at 24 months, and 21% at 30 months

These data underscore the durability of responses, with a meaningful proportion of patients achieving long-term survival beyond two years—an unprecedented outcome in metastatic pancreatic cancer. With OPTIMIZE-1 now closing out, clinical site activities are winding down and costs have been reduced, while Alligator remains well prepared to initiate the confirmatory Phase 3 trial in collaboration with a partner.

Mitazalimab's scientific foundation has also been reinforced through translational research. Data presented at ASCO 2025 demonstrated mitazalimab's ability to induce immune activation in patient tumors and identified tissue-based biomarkers associated with improved outcomes. In October 2025, these findings were published in the peer-reviewed journal Cell Reports Medicine10, further supporting future patient selection strategies.

Mitazalimab received orphan drug designation for pancreatic cancer in both the U.S. (May 2023) and EU (August 2023).

Investigator-initiated trials (IITs)

As a consequence of the encouraging clinical data in pancreatic cancer, Alligator continues to receive numerous proposals from leading hospitals and oncologists to further explore mitazalimab in additional settings. While we cannot participate in all, our strategy is to support a select number of investigator-initiated trials that strengthen understanding of mitazalimab's mechanism-of-action, expand its potential in pancreatic cancer, and explore new indications.

The randomized Phase 2/3 CROCOBIL trial, sponsored by Unicancer in France, will evaluate mitazalimab in combination with FOLFOX in previously treated biliary tract cancer, a tumor type with significant unmet medical need. First patient enrollment is expected in 2026. In addition, the Aphrodite trial, coordinated by Humanitas Cancer Center and Humanitas University in Italy with support from the Cancer Research Institute, will investigate mitazalimab treatment in oral potentially malignant disorders with the aim of reducing malignant transformation.

Together, these studies reflect the strong academic interest in mitazalimab and are designed to generate valuable insights that can broaden its clinical impact beyond pancreatic cancer.

Regulatory progress and Phase 3 readiness

Based on guidance from the FDA and European regulators, Alligator has established a clear regulatory path forward, confirming OPTIMIZE-1 as a Phase 3-enabling study. In response to FDA input, an additional 450 µg/kg dose cohort was added to support dose characterization. Top-line results from this cohort, reported in February 2025, further validated the 900 µg/kg dose as optimal for Phase 3.

In Q4 2024, a CMC interaction with the FDA confirmed that Alligator's completed and planned work supports Phase 3 progression. Alligator has completed commercial manufacturing under GMP, securing supply for the pivotal trial.

At the FDA's End-of-Phase 2 meeting in January 2025, the proposed global Phase 3 design received alignment from both the FDA and the German Paul Ehrlich Institute as a basis for future BLA and MAA submissions. During the second quarter, the European Medicines Agency granted a paediatric study waiver for mitazalimab in metastatic pancreatic cancer and provided positive Scientific Advice confirming the Phase 3 readiness of mitazalimab. In parallel, the FDA confirmed 900 µg/kg as the Phase 3 dose.

Together, the regulatory advice received from FDA, EMA and other European regulatory authorities, confirms the Phase 3 readiness of mitazalimab and establish an aligned path towards regulatory approval for mitazalimab in first line metastatic pancreatic cancer in these important territories.

Next steps

Alligator is preparing to initiate the global Phase 3 trial, with potential for accelerated approval. Partnership discussions are ongoing to support execution of this pivotal study. To strengthen these efforts, Alligator has engaged Moelis, a global transaction advisor with deep experience and a proven track record in oncology, to actively support the partnering process

Project portfolio – ATOR-4066

a next generation bispecific CD40-agonist

ATOR-4066 is a bispecific antibody developed by Alligator within the Neo-X-Prime™ concept as a sequel to mitazalimab. In addition to CD40, ATOR-4066 targets CEACAM5 (carcino-embryonic antigen 5). CEACAM5 is a protein found in certain tumors, for example colorectal cancer, but not at all or in low amounts in normal tissue, which makes it an attractive target molecule for cancer treatment.

Background

Preclinical data show that ATOR-4066 selectively activates dendritic cells and T cells in material from human tumors, and that this activation is dependent on CEACAM5 expression in the tumor. Moreover, data from experimental models demonstrate that the molecule activates the immune system, eradicate tumors and provide a broad long-term protection to tumor recurrence. The Neo-X-Prime™ concept has been published in the peer-reviewed journal JITC.19

Project progress

The potential of ATOR-4066 was strengthened further by the comprehensive study reported in the peer reviewed journal Cancer Immunology Research in September 2025. In the article, it was shown that ATOR-4066 alone can eliminate large tumors with heterogenous CEACAM5-expression, thereby limiting tumor-escape mechanisms and forming the basis for single agent use of the molecule in certain cancers. Further, the data showed that ATOR-4066 remodels the tumor environment generating both myeloid cell-mediated and long-term T cell-mediated anti-tumor activity. Based on these positive data, Alligator expects to initiate CMC process development and other IND-enabling activities for ATOR-4066 as soon as possible, dependent on operational and financial capability.

In January 2024, the USPTO granted the first US patent for ATOR-4066.

Project portfolio – ALG.APV-527

a tumor-directed bispecific antibody

ALG.APV-527 is a bispecific antibody co-developed by Alligator and Aptevo Therapeutics since 2017. The molecule is a T-cell engager which combines a tumortargeting domain (5T4) and an immunostimulatory domain (4-1BB), designed to activate immune cells only upon simultaneous binding to both targets—ensuring tumor-specific activity and minimizing off-target effects.

Background

5T4 is a protein expressed on several solid tumors, including triple-negative breast cancer and renal cell carcinoma. ALG.APV-527 stimulates both T cells and NK cells in the tumor microenvironment, supporting a strong immune response while maintaining a favorable safety profile.

The antibody was developed using Alligator's ALLIGATOR-GOLD® library and optimized with Aptevo's ADAPTIR™ platform. The partners share ownership and development costs equally under a 50/50 agreement.

Preclinical data, published in Molecular Cancer Therapeutics, demonstrated potent tumor-specific immune activation, immunologic memory, and a strong safety profile with no systemic immune activation or liver toxicity.

Clinical progress

In 2023, the first patient was dosed in a Phase 1 study evaluating safety and preliminary efficacy in patients with 5T4-expressing tumors. Interim data announced in March 2024 showed a favorable safety and pharmacokinetics profile, along with early signs of efficacy in heavily pretreated breast cancer patients. By Q4 2024, the study met key endpoints including adequate exposure, safety, tolerability, and biological activity.

These results support further clinical development of ALG.APV-527 as a promising tumor-targeted immunotherapy with the potential for improved efficacy and reduced side effects. The companies are currently evaluating the next steps for the program.

Collaborations and out-licensing agreements

HLX22 – Agreement with Abclon, Inc.

Through its subsidiary Atlas Therapeutics AB, Alligator holds a participating interest in the HER2-directed antibody HLX22 (AC101), developed by Shanghai Henlius Biotech, Inc. under license from AbClon, Inc., following a discovery collaboration. Under the agreement, Alligator incurs no development costs but is entitled to 35% of milestone and royalty income that AbClon receives from Henlius. To date, Alligator has received milestone payments totaling USD 3 million.

HLX22 is currently being evaluated in several clinical studies across HER2-positive cancers. These include a global Phase 3 trial in gastric and gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) cancer, a Phase 2 trial in gastric cancer expected to complete in 2025, and a recently initiated Phase 2 trial in HER2-positive breast cancer. Together, these studies expand the clinical potential of HLX22 across multiple tumor types.

The most advanced clinical study of HLX22 dosed it's first patient in the global Phase 3 trial (HLX22-GC-301) in Q3 2025, a trial evaluating HLX22 in combination with trastuzumab and chemotherapy as first-line therapy in HER2-positive metastatic gastric and GEJ cancer. The program has also been strengthened by the Orphan Drug Designations granted by the FDA and the European Commission earlier in 2025, which provide regulatory and commercial advantages . If HLX22 is successfully developed and approved, the program could generate substantial milestone payments and recurring royalty revenues. Based on current market assessments, annual royalty income to Alligator has the potential to reach SEK 150–400 million, representing a

significant value driver alongside mitazalimab.

Biotheus, Inc.

In August 2019, an agreement was concluded with the Chinese company Biotheus Inc, who obtained the Chinese rights (China, Hong Kong, Taiwan and Macao) to an antibody from the ALLIGATOR-GOLD® library.Following the acquisition of Biotheus by BioNTech, Biotheus decided to exercise its contractual opt-out right under the agreement. The decision reflected Biotheus's strategic priorities and also means that Alligator now regains full rights to the program.

The Alligator share

The total number of outstanding shares and votes in Alligator is 43,813,672. The exercise of the warrants series TO 13 increased the total number shares during the quarter with 9,009,774 shares.

The reverse split and redemption of C-shares

The Extraordinary General Meeting on 27 March 2025 resolved to carry out a reverse split of Alligator's ordinary shares (1:1,000) and to reduce the share capital to cover loss by redemption of all outstanding 779,169 series C-shares, held by Alligator. The quota value per share has increased from SEK 0.0008 to SEK 0.80.

Share-based incentive programs

Alligator has issued warrants under two warrant programs including employees and two warrant programs including certain board members. Please note that all information below is post reverse split.

Warrant program LTI 2022-I/2024-II expired in June 2025 without any warrants were exercised.

Warrant program LTI 2023-I/2023-II

The Annual General Meeting held 2023 resolved to implement a warrant program for employees and certain board members ("LTI 2023-I/LTI 2023-II").

Financial calendar

Alligator intends to publish its financial reports according to the following:

• Year-end report 2025: 12 February 2026

Alligator will hold it's Annual General Meeting on 6 May 2026.

Risks and uncertainties

During the course of its business operations, the Group is exposed to various financial risks, such as market risk (comprising foreign exchange risk, interest-rate risk and price risk), credit risk and liquidity risk. The aim of the Group's overall risk management is to achieve minimal adverse effects in terms of earnings and financial position.

The Group's business risks, risk management and financial risks are described in detail in the Annual Report for 2024.

Conflicts in the world

Many wars and conflicts are raging around the world, resulting in enormous human suffering. The Russian invasion of Ukraine has worsened the political security situation in the rest of the world and created great uncertainty in the financial markets, which may affect the Group's ability to finance clinical trials in the future. The conflict between Israel and Palestina has been going on for decades and has flared up many times over the years. Recently, the violence has escalated and caused enormous suffering. Some other countries around the world are also at war right now.

The Group has no direct business in, nor does it conduct any clinical studies in affected countries but sees that the Group will suffer from increased raw material and energy prices, which in turn will translate into increased prices for goods and services.

Cyber security

Cyber-attacks have become a significant threat in society and for Alligator, which is dependent on IT support in its daily operations. The Group has ongoing work to ensure that the Group is well prepared to counter cyber-attacks and other types of intrusion.

Statement of financial position

Cash and cash equivalents comprised of bank balances and totaled SEK 25,066 thousand (47,797) at the end of the period. Alligator works continuously to secure financing of the operation. This includes new licensing agreements with upfront payments as well as other financing alternatives. Alligator completed a rights issue in February of units (ordinary shares and warrants series TO 12 and TO 13). After the exercise of TO 13 in September 2025 it is Alligator's assessment that there is not enough financing for the coming 12 months, see note 9.

The Board has noted that the equity is below half of the registered share capital. Alligator has considered the provisions in Chap. 25 in the Swedish Companies Act and and concluded that Alligator has large surplus values in primarily the mitazalimab project and HLX22 respectively that with good margin exceeds the deficiency in equity. Thus, no actual deficiency in equity exists that requires the Board to prepare a balance sheet for liquidation purposes.

Forward-looking information

Even though the Board and management believe the expectations in this report are justified, no guarantees can be given that they will turn out to be correct. Accordingly, the actual outcome may differ significantly from the assumptions stated in the forward-looking information depending on, among other factors, changes in the economy or market, changes in legal or regulatory demands, political decisions and changes in exchange rates.

Financial statements

Unless otherwise stated in this interim report, numbers refer to the Group. Due to the nature of the business, there can be large fluctuations in revenue which are not seasonal or regular but are mainly linked to when milestones generating a payment are reached in out-licensed research projects. Like revenue, expenses can also fluctuate between periods. Among other factors, this fluctuation in expenses is influenced by the current phase of the various projects since certain phases generate higher costs.

Figures in brackets refer to the outcome for the corresponding period in the preceding year for figures related to the income statement and cash flow. For figures related to the financial position and personnel, figures in brackets refer to the corresponding period in 2024.

Unless stated otherwise, all amounts are in SEK thousand (KSEK).

All amounts stated are rounded, which may mean that some totals do not tally exactly.

Net Sales

Net sales during the third quarter relates to a license income.

Other operating income

Other operating income for the quarter comprises primarily of income related to government grants and operational exchange gains.

Operating costs

Operating costs during the quarter are lower compared to the same period previous year and are mainly due to lower costs in mitazalimab OPTIMIZE-1 study that is now under finalization. External costs for mitazalimab amounted to SEK 5,250 thousand (29,804) during the third quarter of the year. These costs are driven by Phase 3-enabling activities, e.g. production of study material, and costs for the OPTIMIZE-1 study. Regarding the acquired participation in development project, the conditions for the project have improved and the probability that the drug candidate will reach milestones and incur royalties have increased.

Financial items

Financial income during the quarter relates to fair value adjustment of the financial debt relating to the warrant serie TO 13, which were part of the rights issue of units in February 2025. TO 13 were issued free of charge.

Financial expenses during the quarter include primarily interest expenses and amortized cost related to external short-term loans.

ASSETS

Participations in development projects

The Group's participations in development projects refers to cooperation with the South Korean company AbClon Inc. for the Biosynergy project (HLX22). Biosynergy is outlicensed to the Chinese company Shanghai Henlius Biotech, which is now further developing the drug candidate. At the end of the period, participations in development projects amounted to SEK 40,069 thousand (17,949). Significant estimates and judgments are described in Note 3 and Note 18 of the Annual report for 2024. Regarding the acquired participation in development project, the conditions for the project have improved and the probability that the drug candidate will achieve milestones and incur royalties have increased.

Right of use assets

At the end of the period, right of use assets amounted to SEK 1,941 thousand (11,657). Right of use assets pertain to leases for offices and laboratories, machines and vehicles.

In June 2022 Alligator entered into a lease contract with Medicon Village for lab and office premises valid from December 2024 with a contract period of 5 years. The new contract has increased the right of use assets by approximately SEK 40.4 million based on the use of the contract period without extension and replaces the previous contract with Medicon Village regarding lab and office premises. Impairment of 100% of the right of use asset has been accounted for since the move to the new premises has been cancelled, due to the restructuring of the operations now completed by the Group. In February 2025, Alligator entered into a 3 year lease contract with Medicon Village for limited office premises.

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents consist of bank balances, SEK 25,066 thousand (47,797).

The Group plans to use its liquidity for operating activities. A portion of the Group's liquidity is invested in USD, EUR and GBP foreign currency accounts.

In accordance with the Group's Financial Policy, inflows of foreign currencies exceeding the expected requirements for the coming 18 months are to be converted to SEK at the time of payment. Besides this, no further hedging has taken place.

Equity

The Board has noted that the equity is below half of the registered share capital. The Board has considered the provisions in Chap. 25 in the Swedish Companies Act and concluded that Alligator has significant surplus values (in amongst others, the mitazalimab and HLX22 projects) that with good margin restores the share capital.

Notes

Note 1 General information

This interim report covers the Swedish parent company Alligator Bioscience AB (publ), corporate registration number 556597-8201, and its subsidiaries Atlas Therapeutics AB, corporate registration number 556815-2424, and A Bioscience Incentive AB, corporate registration number 559056-3663. Group's business operations are mainly carried out in the parent company.

The parent company is a Swedish public limited liability company registered and domiciled in the municipality of Lund. The office is located at Medicon Village, SE-223 81 Lund.

Note 2 Accounting policies

This interim report for the Group has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting and applicable regulations in the Swedish Annual Accounts Act (ÅRL). The interim report for the parent company has been prepared in accordance with the Swedish Annual Accounts Act (ÅRL) and the Swedish Financial Reporting Board's recommendation RFR 2 Accounting for Legal Entities.

The accounting policies and calculation methods used in this report are the same as those described in the Annual report for 2024.

Note 3 Effects of changed estimates and judgments

Significant estimates and judgments are described in Note 3 and Note 18 of the Annual report for 2024. Regarding the acquired participation in development projects, the conditions for the project have improved and the probability that the drug candidate will achieve milestones and incur royalties have increased. Remaining part of the previous impairment has thus been reversed.

Note 4 Segment reporting

The Group conducts only one business activity, namely research and development in the field of immunotherapy, and the chief operating decisionmaker is thus only responsible for regularly making decisions on and allocating resources to one entity. Accordingly, the Group comprises only one operating segment, which corresponds to the Group as a whole, and no separate segment reporting is consequently not provided.

Events during the period January–September 2025

In connection with the rights issue of units in February 2025, 15,300,169,260 warrants in series TO 12 and 7,650,084,630 in series TO 13 were issued. Additionally, 845,600,000 TO 12 and 422,800,000 TO 13 were issued to guarantors who chose to receive their compensation in the form of units. At the same time, loan terms were renegotiated with Fenja Capital, which received 3,500,000,000 TO 12 and 1,750,000,000 TO 13. The number of reported warrants does not reflect the impact of the reverse split carried out in March 2025.

The warrants are measured at fair value, with an initial valuation conducted in connection with the rights issue, resulting in a total financial liability of SEK 112 million. A new fair value assessment was subsequently performed at each quarterly closing. Ongoing changes in fair value are classified as financial income/costs in the income statement, without any corresponding impact on cash flow. Upon each exercise of the warrants, the remaining financial liability for TO 12 and TO 13 is reclassified to equity under the heading "Settlement of liability for warrants." As of 30 September 2025, both TO 12 and TO 13 have been exercised, and thus no financial liability remains on the balance sheet.

On 8 September 2025, Alligator conducted another renegotiation of loan terms with its lender Fenja Capital. The renegotiation resulted in the maturity date being postponed from 30 September 2025, to 31 December 2025. As part of the renegotiation, Fenja Capital was granted the right to convert the outstanding principal amount (SEK 23 million) into shares at a subscription price of SEK 3.74 per common share. The fair value of the debt component in a convertible bond is calculated using a discount rate based on the market rate for a debt instrument with similar terms but without the conversion right. The conversion right is initially recognized as the difference between the fair value of the entire compound financial instrument and the fair value of the debt component. The value of the conversion right is recognized in equity and amounts to SEK 2.8 million.

If conversion cannot occur due to Alligator's general meeting failing to pass the necessary resolution (where required because the existing authorization is insufficient), Fenja Capital is entitled to cash compensation equivalent to the value of the unused conversion right. Consequently, the portion of the conversion commitment that exceeds the unused authorization as of 8 September and 30 September 2025, is recognized as a derivative liability measured at fair value through the income statement. The liability was valued at SEK 5 million on 8 September 2025, and after revaluation on 30 September 2025, amounts to SEK 4 million, resulting in financial income of SEK 1 million. Fenja Capital also received a fee of SEK 1 million. In total, the amended loan terms constitute an extinguishment of debt with simultaneous recognition of new debt. This resulted in a loss on extinguishment of SEK 1.8 million. The fee and the loss on extinguishment are recognized as financial expenses. Classification and subsequent measurement of Alligator's financial liabilities, excluding derivative instruments, are carried out at amortized cost using the effective interest method.

Note 8 Related party transactions

The Group has not carried out any related party transactions during the third quarter.

Note 9 Going concern

Following the exercise of TO 13 in September 2025, Alligator assesses that there is no secured financing for the upcoming 12 months. The fact that Alligator assesses there is no financing secured for the coming 12 months indicates a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt on Alligator's ability to continue as a going concern. However, the Board believes that the conditions for preparing this interim report in accordance with IAS 8 – Basis of Preparation of Financial Statements – regarding going concern are still met. The following assumptions form the basis of this assessment:

Alligator's operations in research and development result in continuous consumption of available liquidity. Alligator does not have a steady revenue stream; instead, income is generated irregularly through license agreements and milestone payments from out-licensed research projects. The nature of Alligator's R&D activities, combined with the lack of recurring revenue, leads to significant deficits, and there is a risk that these projects may become more time- and cost-intensive than initially planned. Furthermore, it may take a long time before Alligator's drug candidates are commercialized and generate ongoing cash flow. Any delays in Alligator's R&D projects may result in positive cash flow being realized later than expected.

Depending on when positive cash flow can be achieved, Alligator may need to raise additional capital in the future. There is a risk that Alligator may not be able to obtain such capital when needed or on favorable terms, which could have a materially adverse effect on Alligator's operations and financial position. If sufficient financing cannot be secured, Alligator may be forced to halt planned development projects, restructure parts or all of its operations—as communicated in February 2024 and early December 2024—or operate at a slower pace than planned, potentially leading to delayed or failed commercialization of its drug candidates and postponed or missed licensing and sales revenues.

Alligator continuously explores alternative financing options, including additional capital raising, grants, loans, or similar instruments.

Alligator announced on 22 October 2025 it will carry out a rights issue of approximately SEK 120 million (gross) to provide 6-9 months of financial runway in 2026, enabling Phase 3 preparations for mitazalimab and advancing strategic partnering discussions. In connection with the rights issue, the loan agreement with Fenja Capital has been renegotiated.

Alternative performance measures

Alligator presents certain financial performance measures in this report, including measures that are not defined under IFRS. The Group believes that these performance measures are an important complement because they allow for a better evaluation of the Group's financial trends. These financial performance measures should not be viewed in isolation or be considered to replace the performance indicators that have been prepared in accordance with IFRS. In addition, such performance measures as Alligator has defined them should not be compared with other performance measures with similar names used by other companies. This is because the above-mentioned performance measures are not always defined in the same manner, and other companies may calculate them differently to Alligator.

Below is shown the calculation of key figures, for the mandatory earnings per share according to IFRS and also for performance measures that are not defined under IFRS or where the calculation is not shown in another table in this report.

The Group's business operation is to conduct research and development which is why "R&D costs/Operating costs excluding impairment in%" is an essential indicator as a measure of efficiency, and how much of the Group's costs relate to R&D.

The Group does not have a steady flow of income, with income generated irregularly in connection with the signing of license agreements and achievement of milestones. Therefore, the Group monitors performance indicators such as equity ratio and equity per share in order to assess the Group's solvency and financial stability. These are monitored along with the cash position and the various measures of cash flows shown in the consolidated statement of cash flow.

Auditor's report

To the Board of directors in Alligator Bioscience AB, corporate identity number 556597-8201

Introduction

We have conducted a limited review of the condensed interim financial information (interim report) for Alligator Bioscience AB as of September 30, 2025, and the ninemonth period ending on that date. The board of directors and the managing director are responsible for preparing and presenting this interim report in accordance with IAS 34 and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this interim report based on our limited review.

The focus and scope of the limited review

We have conducted our limited review in accordance with the International Standard on Review Engagements ISRE 2410, "Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity." A limited review consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, performing analytical procedures, and other review procedures. A limited review has a different focus and a significantly smaller scope compared to the focus and scope of an audit conducted in accordance with ISA and generally accepted auditing standards. The review procedures taken in a limited review do not enable us to obtain the assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might have been identified in an audit. Therefore, the conclusion expressed based on a limited review does not have the assurance that a conclusion expressed based on an audit has.

Conclusion

Based on our limited review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the interim report is not, in all material respects, prepared for the group in accordance with IAS 34 and the Annual Accounts Act and for the parent company in accordance with the Annual Accounts Act.

Significant Uncertainty Related to the entity's ability to continue as Going Concern

We would like to draw attention to the disclosure in note 9 - Going concern on page 26 in the interim report where it is described that there is ongoing work related to the continued financing of the operations. The ongoing work means that the company does not, at the time of issuing our review report report, have secured funding. This condition indicates that there is a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt on the company's ability to continue as a going concern. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.
