NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

Nature of Business and Basis of Presentation

Nature of Business

Altimmune, Inc., headquartered in Gaithersburg, Maryland, United States, together with its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company” or “Altimmune”) is a clinical stage biopharmaceutical company incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware.

The Company is focused on developing treatments for obesity and liver diseases. The Company’s lead product candidate, pemvidutide (formerly known as ALT-801), is a novel, investigational, peptide-based GLP-1/glucagon dual receptor agonist in development for the treatment of obesity and metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (“MASH”), previously termed non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (“NASH”). Since its inception, the Company has devoted substantially all of its efforts to business planning, research and development, recruiting management and technical staff and raising capital, and has financed its operations through the issuance of common and preferred stock, long-term debt and proceeds from research grants and government contracts. The Company has not generated any revenues from the sale of any products to date, and there is no assurance of any future revenues from product sales.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements are prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) regarding interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) for complete consolidated financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023 included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K which was filed with the SEC on March 27, 2024. In the opinion of management, the Company has prepared the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements on the same basis as the audited consolidated financial statements, and these consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the results of the interim periods presented. The operating results for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year 2024 or any future years or periods.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the basis of continuity of operations, realization of assets, and the satisfaction of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets and liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

During the three months ended March 31, 2024, there have been no significant changes to the Company’s summary of significant accounting policies contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 as filed with the SEC on March 27, 2024. 6

Table of Contents Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Significant estimates and assumptions made in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include, but are not limited to, the valuation of share-based awards, income taxes, and accruals for research and development activities. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable. However, actual results could differ from those estimates.

Income Taxes

Due to a full valuation allowance, the Company did not record an income tax expense (benefit) for either of the three months ended March 31, 2024 or 2023. The Company calculates its quarterly income tax provision based on estimated, annual effective tax rates applied to ordinary income (or loss) and other known items computed and recognized as they occur. The Company’s total provision is based on the United States statutory rate, increased by state and foreign taxes and reduced by a full valuation allowance on the Company’s deferred tax assets.

Fair Value Measurements

The Company’s assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2024 consisted of the following (in thousands):


	Fair Value Measurement at March 31, 2024

Total	$	185,931		$	123,233		$	62,698		$	—

Short-term investments have been initially valued at the transaction price and subsequently valued at the end of each reporting period utilizing third party pricing services or other market observable data (Level 2). The pricing services utilize industry standard valuation models, including both income and market-based approaches and observable market inputs to determine value.

Short-term investments with quoted prices as of March 31, 2024 as shown below (in thousands):

Agency debt securities		8,923		4		—		8,927
Total	$	62,662	$	36	$	—	$	62,698

As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, none of the unrealized losses on the Company’s short-term investments are a result of credit loss, and therefore, any unrealized losses were recognized in OCI.

As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had $0.2 million and $0.1 million, respectively, accrued interest on short-term investments included in “Accounts and other receivables” on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Separate disclosure is required for assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis from those measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis. Assets recorded at fair value on a non-recurring basis, such as property and equipment and intangible assets are recognized at fair value when they are impaired. During the three months ended March 31, 2024 and year ended December 31, 2023, the Company had no significant assets or liabilities that were measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis.

Operating Leases

The Company’s operating leases consist of leases for office and laboratory space in the United States, which expire in April 2025. Rent expense under these leases during each of the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 was $0.2 million. Rent expense includes short-term leases and variable lease costs that are not included in the lease obligation.

Short-term leases are leases having a term of twelve months or less. The Company recognizes short-term leases on a straight-line basis and does not record a related lease asset or liability for such leases.

The office space lease provides for increases in future minimum annual rental payments as defined in the lease agreements. The office space lease also includes an option to renew the lease as of the end of the term. The Company has determined that the lease renewal option is not reasonably certain of being exercised.

The cash paid for operating lease liabilities for each of the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 was $0.1 million.

Supplemental other information related to the operating leases balance sheet information is as follows (in thousands):

Stockholders’ Equity

The Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended (“Charter”), authorizes the Company to issue 200,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share. As of March 31, 2024, the Company had 70,899,134 shares of common stock issued and outstanding.

Each share of common stock entitles the holder to one vote on all matters submitted to a vote of the Company’s stockholders. Common stockholders are not entitled to receive dividends, unless declared by the board of directors.

The Charter also authorizes the Company to issue 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share. As of March 31, 2024, the Company had no shares of preferred stock issued and outstanding.

At-the-Market Offerings

On February 28, 2023, the Company entered into an Equity Distribution Agreement (the “2023 Agreement”) with Evercore Group L.L.C., JMP Securities LLC and B. Riley Securities, Inc., serving as sales agents (the “Sales Agents”) with respect to an at-the-market offerings program under which the Company may offer and sell, from time to time at its sole discretion, shares of its common stock, having an aggregate offering price of up to $150.0 million (the “Shares”) through the Sales Agents (the “2023 Offering”). All Shares offered and sold in the 2023 Offering will be issued pursuant to the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-3 filed with the SEC on February 28, 2023, which was declared effective immediately, the prospectus supplement relating to the 2023 Offering filed with the SEC on February 28, 2023 and any applicable additional prospectus supplements related to the 2023 Offering that form a part of the Registration Statement. The Company capitalized approximately $0.2 million of other offering costs which will offset the proceeds received from the shares sold under the 2023 Agreement. Since inception through March 31, 2024, the Company has sold 20,454,516 shares of common stock under the 2023 Agreement resulting in approximately $86.6 million in proceeds, net of $2.8 million commission and other offering costs.

As of March 31, 2024, the Company had unvested RSUs of 902,952 shares with total unrecognized compensation expense of $7.9 million, which the Company expects to recognize over a weighted average period of approximately 3.1 years. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company issued 107,875 shares of unrestricted common stock as a result of the vesting of 169,315 RSUs net of 61,440 shares of common stock withheld to satisfy tax withholding obligations.

Net Loss Per Share

Because the Company has reported net loss attributable to common stockholders for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, basic and diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders in each period are the same.

Basic net loss per share attributable to common stockholders is computed by dividing the net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average numbers of shares of common stock outstanding for the period.

Diluted net loss per share is calculated by adjusting weighted average shares outstanding for the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents outstanding for the period. As such, all unvested restricted stock, RSUs, common stock and stock options have been excluded from the computation of diluted weighted average shares outstanding because such securities would have an anti-dilutive impact for all periods presented.

Potential common shares issuable upon conversion, vesting or exercise of unvested restricted stock, RSUs, common stock warrants, and stock options that are excluded from the computation of diluted weighted-average shares outstanding, as they are anti-dilutive, are as follows:


	Three Months Ended

Overview

Altimmune, Inc. is a clinical stage biopharmaceutical company focused on developing treatments for obesity and liver diseases. Our lead product candidate, pemvidutide (formerly known as ALT-801), is a novel, investigational, peptide-based GLP-1/glucagon dual receptor agonist in development for the treatment of obesity and metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (“MASH”), previously termed non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (“NASH”). Except where the context indicates otherwise, references to “we,” “us,” “our,” “Altimmune” or the “Company” refer to the company and its subsidiaries.

Recent Business Update

Pemvidutide

On March 27, 2024, the Company announced results of the body composition analysis from its 48-week MOMENTUM Phase 2 obesity trial of pemvidutide.

As announced on November 30, 2023, the trial enrolled 391 subjects with obesity or overweight with at least one co-morbidity and without diabetes. Subjects were randomized 1:1:1:1 to 1.2 mg, 1.8 mg, 2.4 mg pemvidutide or placebo administered weekly for 48 weeks in conjunction with diet and exercise. The 1.2 mg and 1.8 mg doses were administered without dose titration, while a short 4-week titration period was employed for the 2.4 mg dose. At baseline, subjects had a mean age of approximately 50 years, mean body mass index (BMI) of approximately 37 kg/m^2^ and mean body weight of approximately 104 kg. Approximately 75% of subjects were female.

The body composition analysis showed that 74.5% of weight loss was derived from adipose tissue and only 25.5% from lean mass, comparable to the effects historically associated with weight loss from diet and exercise programs. 13

Table of Contents HepTcell

On March 27, 2024, we announced that the overall response in the Phase 2 trial was deemed to be insufficient to warrant further advancement in clinical trials. As a result, any further development related to HepTcell has been stopped.

Revenue

We have not generated any revenues from the sale of any products to date. Our revenue in previous years consisted primarily of government and foundation grants and contracts that supported our efforts on specific research projects. We recently closed out one of the remaining such contracts and any revenue reported during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 were for the final indirect rate adjustments.

Research and development expenses

Research and development expenses consisted primarily of expenses related to product candidate development. Research and development expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 are summarized as follows:


		Three Months Ended March 31,
Product candidates	****	2024		2023		Increase (Decrease)
Pemvidutide		$	13,527	$	8,904	$	4,623	52	%
HepTcell			1,025		2,118		(1,093)	(52)	%
Non-project costs			6,935		6,227		708	11	%
Total research and development expenses		$	21,487	$	17,249	$	4,238	25	%

The increase in research and development expenses for pemvidutide was primarily due to an $8.1 million increase related to the ramp up of the IMPACT Phase 2b trial in MASH, a $0.5 million increase for other clinical analysis and a $1.9 million increase in net manufacturing expenses for production of Good Manufacturing Practice drug substance materials. These increases were partially offset by a $3.8 million reduction in expense associated with the MOMENTUM Phase 2 trial in obesity, which was ongoing during the three months ended March 31, 2023 and wound down in the year ended December 31, 2023, and a $1.5 million reduction in expenses associated with the metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (“MASLD”) trials and a $0.6 million reduction in expenses associated with Phase 1 safety trials, both of which were substantially completed by March 31, 2023. 14

Table of Contents The decrease in research and development expenses for HepTcell was primarily due to the winddown and completion of the in-life portion of the Phase 2 trial in 2023. The research and development expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2024 was due to program winddown activities. In the coming months, we expect to have some additional wrap up costs as we finalize these activities.

The increase in other non-project specific research and development expenses was primarily due to a $0.5 million increase in stock compensation expense.

General and administrative expenses

General and administrative expenses increased by $0.8 million, or 17%, for the three months ended March 31, 2024, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2023. The increase is due primarily to a $0.6 million increase in stock compensation and other labor related expense and a $0.1 million increase in professional fees.

Total other income (expense), net

Total other income (expense), net increased by $0.7 million, or 42%, for the three months ended March 31, 2024, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2023. The net increase is primarily due to a $0.7 million increase in interest income earned on our cash equivalents and short-term investments.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Overview

Our primary sources of cash during the three months ended March 31, 2024 were from equity transactions, interest and dividends from our money market funds and short-term investments, and proceeds from maturity of our short-term investments. Our cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and short-term investments were $182.1 million as of March 31, 2024. We believe, based on the operating cash requirements and capital expenditures expected for 2024 and 2025, our cash on hand as of March 31, 2024, together with expected cash receipts from our R&D incentives, are sufficient to fund operations for at least a twelve-month period from the issuance date of our March 31, 2024 consolidated financial statements.

We have not generated any revenues from the sale of any products to date, and there is no assurance of any future revenues from product sales. We have incurred significant losses since we commenced operations. As of March 31, 2024, we had an accumulated deficit of $490.7 million. In addition, we have not generated positive cash flows from operations. We have had to rely on a variety of financing sources, including the issuance of debt and equity securities. As capital resources are consumed to fund our research and development activities, we may require additional capital beyond our currently anticipated amounts. In order to address our capital needs, including our planned clinical trials, we must continue to actively pursue additional equity or debt financing, government funding, and monetization of our existing programs through partnership arrangements or sales to third parties.

Sources of Liquidity

Shelf Registrations

On February 28, 2023, we filed a shelf registration statement on Form S-3ASR, which was declared effective immediately. This shelf registration allows us to offer and sell any amount of our common stock, preferred stock, debt securities, warrants, rights and units (the “2023 Shelf”) for a period of 3 years from effectiveness.

At-the-Market Offerings

On February 28, 2023, we entered into the 2023 Agreement with Sales Agents with respect to an at-the-market offerings program under which we may offer and sell, from time to time at our sole discretion, the Shares through the Sales Agents from the 2023 Shelf. Since inception through March 31, 2024, the Company has sold 20,454,516 shares of 15

Table of Contents common stock under the 2023 Agreement resulting in approximately $86.6 million in proceeds. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, we did not sell any shares of common stock under the 2023 Agreement, and as of March 31, 2024, $60.6 million remained available to be sold under the 2023 Shelf.

Cash Flows

The following table provides information regarding our cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023:


		Three Months Ended March 31,
(in thousands)	****	2024		2023		Increase (Decrease)
Net cash (used in) provided by:
Operating activities		$	(16,357)	$	(19,407)	$	3,050
Investing activities			(39,521)		13,302		(52,823)
Financing activities			(261)		(302)		41
Net decrease in cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash		$	(56,139)	$	(6,407)	$	(49,732)

Operating Activities

Net cash used in operating activities was $16.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to $19.4 million during the three months ended March 31, 2023. The primary uses of cash from our operating activities include payments for labor and labor-related costs, professional fees, research and development costs associated with our clinical trials, and other general corporate expenditures. The decrease in cash used in operations of $3.0 million year over year is due to changes in working capital accounts of $6.9 million, partially offset by an increase in net loss as adjusted for non-cash items of $3.9 million.

Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities was $39.5 million, for the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to $13.3 million net cash provided by during the three months ended March 31, 2023. The cash used in investing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2024 was primarily due to purchase of $53.5 million of short-term investments, partially offset by $14.0 million proceeds from sale and maturities of short-term investments. The cash provided by investing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2023 was primarily due to $34.6 million proceeds from sale and maturities of short-term investments, partially offset by $21.2 million purchase of short-term investments.

Financing Activities

Net cash used in financing activities during each of the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 was $0.3 million. The net cash used in financing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2024 was primarily due to $0.6 million net payment for tax withholding obligations related to share-based compensation, partially offset by $0.2 million in proceeds from proceeds from employee stock purchase plan and $0.2 million proceeds from exercise of stock warrants. The net cash used by financing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2023 was primarily due to $0.5 million payment for tax withholding obligations related to share-based compensation, partially offset by $0.1 million in proceeds from proceeds from employee stock purchase plan and $0.1 million proceeds from exercise of stock options.

Current Resources

We have financed our operations to date principally through our equity offerings and proceeds from issuances of our preferred stock, common stock and warrants. As of March 31, 2024, we had $79.0 million of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash and $103.0 million of short-term investments. Accordingly, management believes that we have sufficient capital to fund our plan of operations for at least a twelve-month period from the issuance date of our March 31, 2024 financial statements. However, in order to address our capital needs in the long-term, including our planned clinical trials, we must continue to actively pursue additional equity or debt financing, government funding, and monetization of our existing programs through partnership arrangements or sales to third parties. 16

Table of Contents Critical Accounting Estimates

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations is based upon our unaudited consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and the rules and regulations of the SEC for interim financial reporting. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses, and the disclosure of contingent liabilities in our consolidated financial statements. We base our estimates and judgments on historical experience, knowledge of current conditions, and expectations of what could occur in the future given available information.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

On May 6, 2024, a class action complaint was filed in federal district court in the District of Maryland, Southern Division, naming as defendants, the Company and three of the Company’s current executive officers, captioned Mogan v. Altimmune, Inc., et al., No. 24-cv-01315 (D. Md.). The complaint alleges that the defendants violated Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Rule 10b-5 thereunder, by making false and misleading statements and omissions of material fact to the investing public including the plaintiff and class members, who purchased or otherwise acquired the Company’s common stock between December 1, 2023 and April 26, 2024. The plaintiff and class members seek to have the action maintained as a class action under Rule 23 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure 17

Table of Contents and for the defendants to pay damages, interest, and an award of costs, including attorneys’ fees. The Company intends to vigorously defend against the lawsuit.

From time to time, we may be involved in various legal proceedings or investigations, which could be costly and impose a significant burden on management and employees. The results of any current or future litigation cannot be predicted with certainty, and regardless of the outcome, litigation can have an adverse impact on us because of defense and settlement costs, diversion of management resources, and other factors.
