ASPIRE is on track to complete enrollment in the first half of 2026, with continued enthusiasm fueled by new data supporting buloxibutid's disease-modifying signal in the Phase 2a AIR trial.
The third quarter was marked by disciplined execution as we continued to advance the global, randomized Phase 2b ASPIRE trial of buloxibutid in IPF. Our efforts remain centered on patient enrollment, bolstered by enthusiasm for buloxibutid's good tolerability profile in development to date and patient-friendly trial design. The trial is progressing well, with global enrollment on pace to goal, supported by positive feedback from investigators and participants. This momentum keeps us on track to complete enrollment in the first half of 2026.
The ASPIRE trial is designed to evaluate change in forced vital capacity (FVC) over 52 weeks, the registrational endpoint for IPF. Together with the team, I've spent considerable time visiting with our investigators and clinical sites and continue to be encouraged by the enthusiasm from investigators who recognize the significant potential of buloxibutid.
Buloxibutid also secured another regulatory milestone in September, as Japan's Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare granted Orphan Drug designation to buloxibutid in IPF, an important recognition of its potential to address a significant unmet need. This designation complements our existing Orphan Drug designations in the US and EU, and the FDA Fast Track designation granted earlier this year, further strengthening the regulatory foundation for advancement of buloxibutid. In Japan, Vicore is developing buloxibutid in partnership with Nippon Shinyaku, ensuring strong local expertise and commercial capabilities in this key market.
The IPF landscape saw notable developments this quarter, signaling renewed attention and investment in the field. Boehringer Ingelheim received FDA approval for Jascayd (nerandomilast) - the first new IPF

therapy in over a decade - and United Therapeutics reported positive Phase 3 data for Tyvaso (treprostinil). This progress marks an important milestone for patients, signaling a renewed commitment to advancing IPF care and expanding available treatment options. These emerging therapies are expected to reduce lung function decline and offer differentiated tolerability profiles and, as a result, their arrival is likely to increase treatment rates and expand the IPF market. Despite these advances, a substantial unmet need remains for more effective and better tolerated therapies. Tyvaso's positive Phase 3 data also validates the role of vascular
dysfunction in IPF, further supporting buloxibutid's mechanism of action. Against this backdrop, buloxibutid stands out as the only emerging therapy with the potential to promote tissue repair while reducing inflammation, fibrosis, and vascular remodeling, offering the potential for a paradigm shift in IPF treatment.
The Vicore team has been busy this quarter engaging with clinicians globally and has been met with strong enthusiasm. At the ERS Congress in September, Vicore presented a synthetic control arm (SCA) analysis contextualizing the 36-week Phase 2a AIR trial results. Using SCAs generated from a large, real-world database of IPF patients, the analysis supported buloxibutid's beneficial treatment effect. Among patients with comparable baseline characteristics, buloxibutid showed statistically significant improvement in FVC (Forced Vital Capacity - a measure of lung capacity) at 36 weeks relative to synthetic control, confirming the disease-modifying signal observed in
the AIR trial. These findings reinforce the rationale for ASPIRE and have been well received in discussions with clinicians.
As we enter the final quarter of the year, our focus remains on executing ASPIRE with quality and speed while continuing to engage with the clinical community and regulators. I am grateful to our employees, partners, investigators, and shareholders for their continued support – and to the patients and families who make this work possible.
With our work on ATRAGS, we are building a company with the potential to transform the treatment paradigm for IPF and unlock new treatments in severe fibrotic diseases.

Revenue was SEK 0.8 million and SEK 0.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, revenue was SEK 3.4 million and SEK 104.2 million, respectively. Revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 is attributable to cost reimbursements for manufacturing expenses under the license agreement with Nippon Shinyaku for the development and commercialization of buloxibutid in Japan. The decrease compared to the previous year is attributable to the non-recurring payment of USD 10 million that Vicore received when the company entered into the license agreement with Nippon Shinyaku for the development and commercialization of buloxibutid in Japan.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, research and development expenses were SEK 277.3 million and SEK 167.7 million, respectively. The increase compared to the previous year is primarily attributable the ongoing Phase 2b clinical study with buloxibutid in IPF. Costs for share-based incentive programs related to research and development staff were SEK 3.1 million and SEK 1.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, research and development expenses relative to operating expenses were 85.5 percent and 81.5 percent, respectively.
Other operating income/(expenses), net was SEK 0.1 million and SEK 0.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, other operating income/ (expenses), net was SEK 1.1 million and (SEK 3.2 million), respectively. Other

operating income and expenses mainly consist of exchange rate differences arising from supplier invoices.
Cost for social contributions for share-based incentive programs varies from quarter to quarter due to the change in the underlying share price. Associated provisions are reported as other provisions under non-current and current liabilities. The total costs for the share-based incentive programs, including IFRS 2 classified salary costs and provisions for social security contributions, were SEK 8.9 million and to SEK 1.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, the total costs for the share-based incentive programs, including IFRS 2 classified salary costs and provisions for social security contributions were SEK 16.7 million and SEK 5.6 million, respectively.

Net financial income/(expenses) was SEK 2.5 million and SEK 0.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, net financial income/ (expenses) was (SEK 21.7 million) and SEK 15.3 million, respectively. The decrease compared to the previous year is primarily attributable to exchange rate differences on cash and short-term investments. In line with the group's treasury guidelines, cash is exchanged to foreign currency, and invested over different maturities, in order to align with the currency exposure arising from the fact that the majority of the group's agreements and expenses are denominated in foreign currencies. As a result, exchange rate fluctuations do not impact the group's liquidity forecast or cash flow planning.
Tax credit was SEK 0.0 million and SEK 0.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, tax credit was SEK 0.0 million and SEK 0.3 million, respectively. The group's accumulated tax loss carryforwards as of December 31, 2024, were SEK 1,513.4 million.

The continued negative cash flow from the operating activities is according to plan and is explained by the company's increasing investment in the clinical development program. Adjustment for items not included in the cash flow for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, was SEK 8.9 million and (SEK 0.7 million), respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, adjustment for items not included in the cash flow was SEK 15.9 million and SEK 8.3 million, respectively.

This report covers the Swedish parent company Vicore Pharma Holding AB (publ), corporate registration number 556680-3804, and its subsidiaries Vicore Pharma AB and Vicore Pharma US Inc. The parent company is a limited liability company registered in Stockholm, Sweden. The address of the main office is Kornhamnstorg 53, 111 27 Stockholm, Sweden. The group's main operation is research and development of pharmaceutical products.
The interim report for the third quarter 2025 was approved for publication on November 5, 2025, in accordance with a board decision on November 4, 2025.
Vicore's consolidated accounts have been prepared in accordance with the IFRS Accounting Standards issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) as well as the interpretations from the IFRS Interpretation Committee (IFRS IC) as adopted by the European Union (EU). Furthermore, the group also applies the Annual Accounts Act (1995: 1554) and the Swedish Financial Reporting Board's recommendation RFR 1 "Supplementary Accounting Rules for Groups". Relevant accounting and valuation principles can be found on pages 35-36 of the 2024 Annual Report. In addition, the accounting principles
for financial assets and liabilities are presented below.
The interim report has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting. The parent company applies the Annual Accounts Act and RFR 2 Accounting for Legal Entities.
Disclosures in accordance with IAS 34.16A are provided both in the notes and throughout in the interim report.
Vicore applies ESMA:s (European Securities and Markets Authority) guidelines on alternative performance measures.
As of January 1, 2025, the Parent Company applies IFRS 9 Financial Instruments in full, in accordance with RFR 2 Accounting for Legal Entities. The accounting policy is consistent with that applied in the group. Previously, the Parent Company applied the acquisition cost method under the Swedish Annual Accounts Act. The change has not had any material impact on the reported amounts, and therefore comparative figures have not been restated.
As of January 1, 2025, the Group applies the amendments to IAS 21 The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates. The application has not had any material impact on the Group's financial statements.
The accounting principles and calculation methods, with the exception of the changes described above, are unchanged from those applied in the Annual Report for the financial year January 1 - December 31, 2024.
New and amended accounting standards and interpretations that have been published and will take effect in 2026 or later have not been applied in the preparation of this financial report. IFRS 18 Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements, published by the IASB in April 2024, will, if adopted by the EU, apply from January 1, 2027 and replace IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements. IFRS 18 will affect the presentation and disclosures in the Group's financial reports by introducing new categories in the income statement—operating activities, investing, and financing—as well as a new subtotal for operating profit. The standard also includes enhanced disclosure requirements, particularly regarding Management Performance Measures (MPM). The Group is currently assessing the effects of IFRS 18.
A financial asset or financial liability is recognized in the balance sheet when the group becomes a party according to the instrument's contractual terms. A financial asset is removed from the balance sheet when the rights in the agreement are realized, expire or when the group loses control over them. The same applies to a part of a financial asset. A financial liability is removed from the balance sheet when the obligation in the agreement is fulfilled or otherwise extinguished. The same
applies to a part of a financial debt.
Acquisitions and divestments of financial assets are reported on the trade date. The trade date constitutes the day when the company undertakes to acquire or divest the asset.
Financial instruments are classified on initial recognition, including on the basis of what purpose the instrument was acquired and managed. This classification determines the valuation of the instruments.
The classification of financial assets that are debt instruments, is based on the group's business model for managing the asset and the nature of the asset's contractual cash flows. Assets are classified according to:
The group's financial assets that are classified at amortized cost include accounts receivable, certain other receivables, short-term investments, and cash and cash equivalents. Financial assets classified at amortized cost are initially measured at fair value with the addition of transaction costs. After initial recognition, the assets are valued at amortized cost after a deduction of a loss reserve for expected credit losses. Assets classified at amortized cost are
held according to the business model to collect contractual cash flows, which are solely payments of principal and interest on the outstanding principal amount.
The group's financial assets that are classified at fair value through profit or loss relate to holdings in listed and non-listed shares.
The group's impairment model is based on expected credit losses, and takes into account prospective information. A loss reserve is made when there is an exposure to credit risk, usually at initial recognition for an asset or receivable.
The group's financial liabilities consist of accounts payable and other current liabilities, which are all classified at amortized cost. Financial liabilities recognized at amortized cost are initially measured at fair value including transaction costs. After the initial recognition, they are valued according to the effective interest method.
During the period, remuneration to the group's senior executives and the board has been paid in accordance with current policies. The following intragroup transactions took place during the three months ended September 30, 2025 and the first nine months 2025:
Vicore Pharma Holding AB invoiced the subsidiary Vicore Pharma AB SEK 15.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025, for business support fee and SEK 0.2 million for reinvoiced costs. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, Vicore Pharma Holding AB invoiced the subsidiary SEK 67.3 million for business support fee and SEK 0.2 million for reinvoiced costs.
Vicore Pharma US Inc. invoiced the parent company Vicore Pharma Holding AB SEK 1.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025, for business support fee. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, Vicore Pharma US Inc. invoiced the parent company Vicore Pharma Holding AB SEK 6.3 million for business support fee.
Vicore Pharma US Inc. invoiced the sister company Vicore Pharma AB SEK 2.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025, for services within research and development. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, Vicore Pharma US Inc. invoiced the sister company Vicore Pharma AB SEK 6.4 million for services within research and development.
No other related party transactions have occurred during the period other than previously stated.
Vicore is engaged in research and development operations through its subsidiary Vicore Pharma AB. Research and development involve a significant inherent level of risk and is a capital-intensive process. The majority of initiated projects in the drug development industry will never reach market registration due to technical risks, including the risk of insufficient efficacy, intolerable side effects or manufacturing problems. Apart from the one-time payment related to the license agreement with Nippon Shinyaku, Vicore has not generated significant revenue. Vicore's expansion and development related to the development projects may be delayed and/or incur greater costs and capital need than expected. Delays can occur for various reasons, including difficulties in reaching agreements with clinics about participation in clinical studies under acceptable conditions, problems in identifying patients for studies, patients not completing a trial or not returning for follow-up, or other events outside Vicore's control.
Patents that the company has applied for may not be granted and granted patents may be challenged, leading to loss of patent protection. If competing pharmaceuticals capture market share or reach the market faster, or if competing research projects achieve
better product profiles, the future value of the product portfolio may be lower than expected. Decisions from public authorities, including decisions related to approvals, reimbursement and price changes, may also negatively impact the operations.
Through its operations, Vicore is exposed to various types of financial risk: credit risks, market risks (foreign exchange risk, interest rate risk and other price risks) and liquidity risks including refinancing risks. The main refinancing risk is not receiving additional investments from shareholders and other investors. The group's overall risk management objective focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and strives to minimize potentially unfavorable consequences for the group's financial position and performance.
For more information about operational and financial risks and other risk factors, see the Annual Report for 2024, available on the company's website, www.vicorepharma.com.
Vicore's financial assets and liabilities comprise cash, cash equivalents, shortterm investments, trade payables and accrued expenses. The fair value of all financial instruments is materially equal to their carrying amounts.

Amortization attributable to research and development expenses mainly relates to the amortization of acquired intangible assets. This consists of a patent portfolio related to buloxibutid, whose main patent expired in the US in September 2024. Amortization began in September 2019 and is amortized over its estimated useful life, which is the remaining patent period.
The purpose of share-based incentive programs is to promote the company's long-term interests by motivating and rewarding the company's senior management and other employees in line with the interests of the shareholders. Vicore currently has four active programs that include the management team, employees and board members.
At the Annual General Meeting on May 11, 2021, it was resolved to implement a new incentive programs: a maximum of 3,000,000 employee stock options to senior leaders and key persons ("Co-worker LTIP 2021").
At the Annual General Meeting on May 11, 2023, it was resolved to implement two new incentive programs: a maximum of 5,000,000 employee stock options to senior leaders and key persons ("Co-worker LTIP 2023"), and a maximum of 120,000 share awards to the board members ("Board LTIP 2023").
At the Annual General Meeting on May 7, 2024, it was resolved to implement a new incentive program: a maximum of 297,000 share awards to the board members ("Board LTIP 2024").
At the Annual General Meeting on May 6, 2025, it was resolved to implement two new incentive programs: a maximum of 7,000,000 employee stock options to senior leaders and key persons ("Co-worker LTIP 2025"), and a maximum of 1,070,000 restricted share units (RSUs) to the board members ("Board RSU 2025").For further information about these programs, see the 2024 Annual Report and the company's website, www.vicorepharma.com.
On September 10, 2024, Vicore's board decided to increase the company's share capital through a new issue of shares with preferential rights for Vicore's existing shareholders. The rights issue was completed on October 7, 2024. Therefore, the number of instruments, the exercise price and the number of shares each option or warrant in the company's incentive program entitles to have been recalculated. Initially, and according to the decision of the relevant Annual General Meeting, each vested instrument entitled the participant to one (1) share in Vicore. After the recalculation, each vested instrument will entitle the participant to 1.04 shares in Vicore.
Assuming full utilization of all granted employee stock options and share awards as of September 30, 2025, and taking into account the recalculation of the number of shares that each instrument gives the right to subscribe for as a result of the rights issue, this would correspond to maximum dilution of 3.4 percent. Considering non-granted employee stock options and warrants that may be used as hedge for social security contributions, the maximum dilution level as of September 30, 2025, amounts to 6.0 percent.
The table on the top right summarizes of the changes in existing incentive programs for the first nine months 2025. The table on the bottom summarizes the total number of employee stock options and share awards granted as of September 30, 2025.

Vicore applies the guidelines issued by ESMA (European Securities and Markets Authority) for alternative performance measures (APMs). APMs are financial measurements of historical or future earnings, financial position, financial results or cash flows that are not defined or specified in the applicable financial reporting rules but are central to understanding and evaluating Vicore's operations.
In this report, Vicore presents key performance measures, including two alternative performance measures not defined under IFRS, namely equity ratio and research and development expenses/operating expenses. The company believes these key performance measures are useful to readers of the financial reports as a complement to other key performance measures, as they enable a better evaluation of the company's financial trends. These alternative performance measures should not be viewed in isolation or be considered replacements for the performance indicators prepared in accordance with IFRS. In addition, such performance measures, as the company 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.

The average number of outstanding shares has been adjusted for bonus shares in new stock issued targeted towards existing shareholders. There is no dilution effect for potential ordinary shares for periods where earnings have been negative.

Equity ratio is the company's APM and is defined on the next page.
Research and development expenses/operating expenses (%) is the company's APM.

THIS IS A TRANSLATION FROM THE SWEDISH ORIGINAL
Vicore Pharma Holding AB, org.nr 556680-3804
We have reviewed the condensed interim report for Vicore Pharma Holding AB as of September 30, 2025, and for the nine months period then ended. The Board of Directors and the CEO are responsible for the preparation and presentation of 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 review.
We conducted our review in accordance with the International Standard on Review Engagements, ISRE 2410 Review of Interim Financial Statements Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity. A review consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing and other generally accepted auditing standards in Sweden. The procedures performed in a review do not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.
Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the interim report is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with IAS 34 and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act regarding the Group, and in accordance with the Swedish Annual Accounts Act regarding the Parent Company.
