Pipeline highlights:
Lacutamab (anti-KIR3DL2 antibody):
•Innate continues to see progress for lacutamab with final data from the TELLOMAK Phase 2 trial for both mycosis fungoides and Sézary syndrome expected in H2 2023.
•In June 2023, interim efficacy results from the TELLOMAK Phase 2 study in advanced mycosis fungoides (MF) according to updated lymph node classification were presented at the 17th International Conference on Malignant Lymphoma, in Lugano, Switzerland. Results confirm clinical activity and favorable safety profile of lacutamab. Results showed that lacutamab produced an increased global objective response rate (ORR) of 42.9% (95% confidence interval [CI], 24.5-63.5) in patients with KIR3DL2 ≥ 1% MF (cohort 2, n=21), including 2 complete responses and 7 partial responses.
•Initial PTCL data are expected in H2 2023. Two parallel clinical trials to study lacutamab in patients with KIR3DL2-expressing, relapsed/refractory peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL) are ongoing.
ANKET® (Antibody-based NK cell Engager Therapeutics):
ANKET® is Innate’s proprietary platform for developing next-generation, multi-specific NK cell engagers to treat certain types of cancer. Innate’s pipeline includes four public drug candidates born from the ANKET® platform: SAR’579 / IPH6101 (CD123-targeted), SAR’514 / IPH6401 (BCMA-targeted), IPH62 (B7-H3-targeted) and tetra-specific IPH65 (CD20-targeted). Several other undisclosed proprietary preclinical targets are being explored.
SAR’579 / IPH6101, SAR’514 / IPH6401 and IPH62 (partnered with Sanofi)
SAR’579 / IPH6101
•The Phase 1/2 clinical trial by Sanofi is progressing well, evaluating SAR’579 / IPH6101, a trifunctional anti-CD123 NKp46×CD16 NK cell engager and ANKET® platform lead asset, in patients with relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia (AML), B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL) or high-risk myelodysplastic syndrome (HR-MDS).
◦Phase 1/2 dose escalation safety and preliminary efficacy of SAR'579 / IPH6101 in R/R AML, B-ALL and HR-MDS were presented during an oral presentation at the ASCO (American Society for Clinical Oncology) 2023 Annual Meeting in June. Preliminary data showed SAR’579 / IPH6101 was well tolerated and induced 3 complete responses in the 8 patients at 1 mg/kg as highest dose.
◦In June, SAR’579 / IPH6101 received U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Fast Track Designation for the treatment of hematological malignancies.
◦Preclinical data showing the control of AML cells by a trifunctional NKp46-CD16a-NK cell engager targeting CD123 were published in Nature Biotechnology in January 2023.
SAR’514 / IPH6401
•In July 2023, partner Sanofi advanced SAR’514 / IPH6401, a trifunctional anti-BCMA Nkp46xCD16 NK cell engager, to first-in-human clinical trial in Relapsed/Refractory Multiple Myeloma (RRMM) and Relapsed/Refractory Light-chain Amyloidosis (RRLCA)
◦Our partner presented preclinical data showing SAR’514 / IPH6401 has potent in-vitro, in-vivo and ex-vivo anti-myeloma effect through dual NK cell

IPH62
•As announced on December 19, 2022, Sanofi licensed IPH62, a NK cell engager program targeting B7-H3 from Innate’s ANKET® platform, and the company has the option to add up to two additional ANKET® targets. Upon candidate selection, Sanofi will be responsible for all development, manufacturing and commercialization. Under the terms of the agreement, Innate received a €25m upfront payment and is eligible for up to €1.35bn total in preclinical, clinical, regulatory and commercial milestones plus royalties on potential net sales.
IPH65 (proprietary)
•Following approval of the IND-filing by the FDA in July 2023, IPH65, Innate’s proprietary CD20 targeted tetra-specific ANKET® continues toward a Phase 1 clinical trial in 2023.
◦Updated preclinical data on IPH65 were presented at the European Hematology Association (EHA) 2023 congress in June.
Monalizumab (anti-NKG2A antibody), partnered with AstraZeneca:
•Innate continues to see progress for monalizumab in the early non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) setting, with the ongoing Phase 3 PACIFIC-9 study run by AstraZeneca. The study is evaluating durvalumab (anti-PD-L1) in combination with monalizumab or AstraZeneca’s oleclumab (anti-CD73) in patients with unresectable, Stage III NSCLC who have not progressed following definitive platinum-based concurrent chemoradiation therapy (CRT).
◦Monalizumab was highlighted in two “Trial in progress” posters at the ASCO 2023 Annual Meeting in June:
▪Phase 3 study of durvalumab combined with oleclumab or monalizumab in patients with unresectable stage III NSCLC (PACIFIC-9).
▪NeoCOAST-2: A Phase 2 study of neoadjuvant durvalumab plus novel immunotherapies (IO) and chemotherapy (CT) or MEDI5752 (volrustomig) plus CT, followed by surgery and adjuvant durvalumab plus novel IO or volrustomig alone in patients with resectable non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
IPH5201 (anti-CD39), partnered with AstraZeneca:
•In June 2023, the first patient was dosed in the MATISSE Phase 2 clinical trial conducted by Innate in neoadjuvant lung cancer for IPH5201, an anti-CD39 blocking monoclonal antibody developed in collaboration with AstraZeneca.

Financial highlights for the first half of 2023:
The key elements of Innate’s financial position and financial results as of and for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023 are as follows:
•Cash, cash equivalents, short-term investments and financial assets amounting to €124.7 million (€m) as of June 30, 2023 (€136.6m as of December 31, 2022).
•Revenue and other income from continuing operations amounted to €40.2m in the first half of 2023 (€45.6m in the first half of 2022) and mainly comprise of:
◦Revenue from collaboration and licensing agreements, which mainly resulted from the partial or entire recognition of the proceeds received pursuant to the agreements with AstraZeneca, Sanofi and Takeda. They results from the partial or entire recognition of the proceeds received pursuant to the agreements with AstraZeneca, Sanofi and Takeda. They are recognized when the entity's performance obligation is met. Their accounting is made at a point in time or spread over time according to the percentage of completion of the work that the Company is committed to carry out under these agreements:
▪(i) Revenue from collaboration and licensing agreements for monalizumab decreased by €6.9m to €9.5m in the first half of 2023 (€16.4m in the first half of 2022). This change mainly results from the transaction price increase of €13.4 million ($14.0 million) in the first half of 2022, triggered by the launch of the “PACIFIC-9” Phase 3 trial on April 28, 2022. As a reminder, this increase in the transaction price led to the recognition of an additional revenue of €12.5 million for the first half of 2022. However, this decrease is partially offset by an increase in monalizumab-related revenues for the first half of 2023, in line with the progress of Phase 1/2 trials over the period.
▪(ii) Revenue related to the license and collaboration agreement signed with Sanofi in 2016 decreased by €1.0m, to €2.0m for the six months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to €3.0m for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The Company announced that, in June 2023, the first patient was dosed in a Sanofi-sponsored Phase 1/2 clinical trial evaluating SAR'514/IPH6401 in relapsed or refractory Multiple Myeloma. As provided by the licensing agreement signed in 2016, Sanofi made a milestone payment of €2.0 million, fully recognized in revenue as of June 30, 2023. This amount was received by the Company on July 21, 2023. As a reminder, the revenue recognized in the first half of 2022 resulted from Sanofi's decision to advance SAR'514/IPH6401 into investigational new drug (IND)-enabling studies. As such, Sanofi had selected a second multispecific antibody engaging NK cells as a drug candidate. This selection triggered a €3.0 million milestone payment from Sanofi to the Company, fully recognized in revenue as of June 30, 2022.
▪(iii) Revenue of €18.7 million related to the research collaboration and licensing agreement signed with Sanofi in 2022. On January 25, 2023, the Company announced the expiration of the waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino (HSR) Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976 and the effectiveness of the licensing agreement as of January 24, 2023. Consequently, the Company received an upfront payment of €25.0 million in March 2023, including €18.5 million for the
Innate Pharma |HY 2023 Financial results | 5
exclusive license, €1.5 million for the research work and €5.0 million for the two additional targets options. The €18.5 million upfront payment relating to the exclusive license has been fully recognized in revenue as of June 30, 2023. The €1.5 million upfront payment will be recognized on a straight-line basis over the duration of the research work that the Company has agreed to carry out. The €5.0 million initial payment relating to the options is recognized in deferred revenue—non-current portion as of June 30, 2023. The Company will recognize the related revenues either at the reporting date or three years after the effective date.
▪(iv) Revenue of €4.6m related to the licensing agreement signed with Takeda in 2023. On April 3, 2023, the Company announced that it has entered into an exclusive license agreement with Takeda under which Innate grants Takeda exclusive worldwide rights to research and develop antibody drug conjugates (ADC) using a panel of selected Innate antibodies against an undisclosed target, with a primary focus in Celiac disease. Takeda will be responsible for the future development, manufacture and commercialization of any potential products developed using the licensed antibodies. As such, the Company considers that the license granted is a right to use the intellectual property, which is granted fully and perpetually to Takeda. The agreement does not stipulate that Innate's activities will significantly affect the intellectual property granted during the life of the agreement. Consequently, the $5.0 million (or €4.6 million) initial payment, received by the Company in May 2023, was fully recognized in revenue as of June 30, 2023.
◦Government funding for research expenditures of €4.9m in the first half of 2023 (€4.3m in the first half of 2022).
•Operating expenses from continuing operations are €40.6m in the first half of 2023 (€37.1m in the first half of 2022), of which 77.5% (€31.5m) are related to R&D.
◦R&D expenses from continuing operations increased by €6.5m to €31.5m in the first half of 2023 (€25.0m in the first half of 2022). This change mainly results from (i) a €4.9m increase in direct R&D expenses relating to €4.8m non-clinical program in the Antibody Drug Conjugates (ADC) field and a slight increase of clinical programs of €0.1m; (ii) Personnel expenses and other R&D expenses increased by €1.6m (12.9%) to reach €14.2m in the first half 2023 compared to €12.6m in the first half 2022. This increase is mainly explained by €2.0m amortization for the rights relating to IPH5201 following the first patient dosed in the Phase 2 MATISSE clinical trial. The amortization of rights related to the monalizumab decreased by €0.3m.
◦General and administrative (G&A) expenses from continuing operations decreased by €3.0m to €9.1m in the first half of 2023 (€12.1m in the first half of 2022) mainly resulting from ((i) a €1.4m decrease of personnel expenses mainly due to a reduction of administrative workforce, (ii) a €0.6m decrease on non-scientific advisory and consulting fees (limited use of recruitment agencies and strategic consulting), and finally (iii) a decrease on other expenses for €1.0m mainly related to a decrease on leasing and maintenance for €0.5m to the benefit of research and development enabling a more consistent allocation of support expenses to the company's research laboratory as well as a reduction of 0.2 million following more limited use of external communication and investor relations service providers.

•Net income from discontinued operations related to Lumoxiti are nil compared to a net loss of €0.1 million for the first half of 2022 corresponding to residual costs associated with the transfer of activities to AstraZeneca. This transfer has now been completed.
•A net financial gain of €2.1m in the first half of 2023 (net financial loss of €2.1m in the first half of 2022), principally as a result of the increase in fair value of certain of our financial instruments and net foreign exchange gain over the period.
•A net income of €1.7m for the first half of 2023 (net income of €6.3m for the first half of 2022).

| Revenue from collaboration and licensing agreements | 35,344 | 41,271 | ||||||

Revenue from collaboration and licensing agreements
Revenue from collaboration and licensing agreements decreased by €5.9 million, to €35.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to revenues from collaboration and licensing agreements of €41.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. These revenues mainly result from the partial or entire recognition of the proceeds received pursuant to the agreements with AstraZeneca, Sanofi and Takeda. They are recognized when the entity's performance obligation is met. Their accounting is made at a point in time or spread over time according to the percentage of completion of the work that the Company is committed to carry out under these agreements.
The evolution for the first half of 2023 is mainly due to:
•A €6.9 million decrease in revenue related to monalizumab, to €9.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to €16.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. This change mainly results from the transaction price increase of €13.4 million ($14.0 million) in the first half of 2022, triggered by the launch of the “PACIFIC-9” Phase 3 trial on April 28, 2022. As a reminder, this increase in the transaction price led to the recognition of an additional revenue of €12.5 million for the first half of 2022. However, this decrease is partially offset by an increase in monalizumab-related revenues for the first half of 2023, in line with the progress of Phase 1/2 trials over the period. As of June 30, 2023, the deferred revenue related to monalizumab is €4.7 million entirely classified as “Deferred revenue—Current portion” in connection with the maturity of Phase 1/2 trials.
•A €4.8 million decrease in revenue related to IPH5201 which are nil for the six months ended June 30, 2023 . The revenue for the first half of 2022 resulted from the entire recognition in revenue of the $5.0 million milestone payment received from AstraZeneca following the signature on June 1, 2022 of an amendment to the initial contract signed in October 2018. As a reminder, this amendment sets the terms of the collaboration following AstraZeneca’s decision to advance IPH5201 to a Phase 2 study. The Company conducts the study. Both parties share the external cost related to the study and incurred by the Company and AstraZeneca provides products necessary to conduct the clinical trial.
•As a reminder, during the first half of 2022, AstraZeneca informed the Company that it will not exercise its option to license the four preclinical programs covered in the "Future Programs Option Agreement". This option agreement was part of the 2018 multi-term agreement between AstraZeneca and the Company under which the Company received an upfront payment of $20.0 million (€17.4 million). Innate has regained full rights to further develop the four preclinical molecules. Consequently, the entire initial payment of $20.0 million, or €17.4 million was recognized as revenue as of June 30, 2022.
Innate Pharma |HY 2023 Financial results | 14
•The recognition of €18.7 million in revenue as of June 30, 2023, relating to the research collaboration and licensing agreement signed with Sanofi in 2022. On January 25, 2023, the Company announced the expiration of the waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino (HSR) Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976 and the effectiveness of the licensing agreement as of January 24, 2023. Consequently, the Company received an upfront payment of €25.0 million in March 2023, including €18.5 million for the exclusive license, €1.5 million for the research work and €5.0 million for the two additional targets options. The Company considers that the license to the B7-H3 technology is a right to use the intellectual property granted exclusively to Sanofi from the effective date of the agreement. As such, the €18.5 million upfront payment relating to the exclusive license has been fully recognized in revenue as of June 30, 2023. The Company will provide collaborative research services to Sanofi for a three years period from the effective date of the collaboration, i.e. January 24, 2023. Consequently, the corresponding upfront payment of €1.5 million will be recognized on a straight-line basis over the duration of the research work that the Company has agreed to carry out. As a result, a €0.2 million has been recognized in revenue as of June 30, 2023, and amounts not recognized in revenue are classified as deferred revenue—current portion for €0.4 million and deferred revenue—non-current portion for €0.9 million. Under the terms of this agreement, the Company has also granted two exclusive options, exercisable no later than three years after the effective date, for exclusive licenses to Innate's intellectual property for the research, development, manufacture and commercialization of NKCEs specifically targeting two preclinical molecules. The Company considers that the option to acquire an exclusive license provide a material right to Sanofi that it would not receive without entering into this agreement. The Company will recognize the related revenues either at the reporting date or three years after the effective date. Consequently, the €5.0 million initial payment relating to these options is recognized in deferred revenue—non-current portion as of June 30, 2023.
•The recognition of €4.6 million in revenue from licensing agreement signed with Takeda in 2023. On April 3, 2023, the Company announced that it has entered into an exclusive license agreement with Takeda under which Innate grants Takeda exclusive worldwide rights to research and develop antibody drug conjugates (ADC) using a panel of selected Innate antibodies against an undisclosed target, with a primary focus in Celiac disease. Takeda will be responsible for the future development, manufacture and commercialization of any potential products developed using the licensed antibodies. As such, the Company considers that the license granted is a right to use the intellectual property, which is granted fully and perpetually to Takeda. The agreement does not stipulate that Innate's activities will significantly affect the intellectual property granted during the life of the agreement. Consequently, the $5.0 million (or €4.6 million) initial payment, received by the Company in May 2023, was fully recognized in revenue as of June 30, 2023.
•A €1.0 million decrease in revenue from collaboration and research license agreement signed with Sanofi in 2016, to €2.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to €3.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The Company announced that, in June 2023, the first patient was dosed in a Sanofi-sponsored Phase 1/2 clinical trial evaluating SAR'514/IPH6401 in relapsed or refractory Multiple Myeloma. As provided by the licensing agreement signed in 2016, Sanofi made a milestone payment of €2.0 million, fully recognized in revenue as of
Innate Pharma |HY 2023 Financial results | 15
June 30, 2023. This amount was received by the Company on July 21, 2023. As a reminder, the revenue recognized in the first half of 2022 resulted from Sanofi's decision to advance SAR'514/IPH6401 into investigational new drug (IND)-enabling studies. As such, Sanofi had selected a second multispecific antibody engaging NK cells as a drug candidate. This selection triggered a €3.0 million milestone payment from Sanofi to the Company, fully recognized in revenue as of June 30, 2022. This amount was received by the Company on September 9, 2022.
•A €0.6 million increase in revenue from invoicing of research and development costs. The change between the two periods is mainly explained by the increase in research and development costs incurred by the Company under these agreements during the first half of 2023 in line with the clinical trial progress.
Government funding for research expenditures
Government financing for research expenditures increased by €0.5 million, or 12.4%, to €4.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to €4.3 million the six months ended June 30, 2022. This change is primarily a result of a increase in the research tax credit of €0.6 million, which is mainly due to (i) the increase in depreciation on IPH5201 rights following the full amortization of the additional payment of €2.0 million due to Orega Biotech following the dosing of the first patient in the Phase 2 MATISSE clinical trial, and (ii) the absence of grants recognized during the first half of 2023 as compared to the remaining Force financing of €0,7 million received in the first half of 2022 from BPI following the technical and commercial failure of the project based on the results of the Phase 2 "Force" trial evaluating avdoralimab in COVID-19. However, these decreases are partially offset by a decrease in public and private R&D subcontracting expenses eligible due to the maturity of clinical trials and the non-inclusion, as a precautionary measure, of subcontracting expenses with a supplier whose agreement is in the process of being renewed as of June 30, 2023. In addition, this decrease is also explained by the decrease in amortization of the monalizumab intangible asset due to the extension of the amortization period, as well as for certain tangible assets which had reached the end of their amortization period, and also by lower R&D personnel costs
The Company met again the SME status under European Union criteria since December 31, 2020. As such, it was eligible for the early repayment by the French treasury of the 2021 Research Tax Credit for an amount of €10.3 million in 2022 and also the 2022 Research Tax Credit for an amount of €9.2 million. These amounts was received by the Company on November 16,2022 and July 21, 2023, respectively.
Operating expenses
The table below presents our operating expenses from continuing operations for the six months periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022:
| In thousands of euros | June 30, 2023 | June 30, 2022 | ||||||
| Research and development expenses | (31,453) | (24,956) | ||||||
| General and administrative expenses | (9,144) | (12,140) | ||||||
| Operating expenses | (40,597) | (37,096) | ||||||
Innate Pharma |HY 2023 Financial results | 16
Research and development expenses
Research and development (“R&D”) expenses from continuing operations increased by €6.5 million, or 26.0%, to €31.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to €25.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, representing a total of 77.5% and 67.3% of the total operating expenses, respectively. R&D expenses include direct R&D expenses (subcontracting costs and consumables), depreciation and amortization, and personnel expenses.
Direct R&D expenses increased by €4.9 million, or 39.4%, to €17.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to €12.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. This increase is mainly explained by €4.8 million non-clinical program in the Antibody Drug Conjugates – ADC field and a slight increase of clinical programs of €0.1 million. The increase of €0.9 million on IPH5201 is linked to startup costs of Phase 2 MATISSE clinical trial and is partly offset by the decrease expenses related to lacutamab program for €0.2 million as well as avdoralimab and monalizumab programs for respectively 0.2 million euros and 0.2 million euros. These decreases follow the decision taken by the Company at the end of the first half of 2020 to stop recruitment in trials evaluating avdoralimab in oncology and the maturity of Phase 1/2 clinical trials entering the scope of the collaboration with AstraZeneca regarding monalizumab.
Also, as of June 30, 2023, the collaboration liabilities relating to monalizumab and the agreements signed with AstraZeneca in April 2015, October 2018 and September 2020 amounted to €56.1 million, as compared to collaborations liabilities to €63.2 million as of December 31, 2022. This decrease of €7.2 million mainly results from (i) the net reimbursement of €6.4 million made in the first half 2023 to AstraZeneca relating to the co-financing of the monalizumab program, mainly including the Phase 3 INTERLINK-1 trial launched in October 2020 and (ii) the decrease in the collaboration commitment for the amount of €1.1 million in connection with the observed exchange rate fluctuations over the period for the euro-dollar parity.
Personnel and other expenses allocated to R&D increased by €1.6 million, or 12.9%, to €14.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to an amount of €12.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. This increase is mainly due to €2.0 million amortization for the rights relating to IPH5201 following the first patient dosed in the Phase 2 MATISSE clinical trial. The amortization of rights related to the monalizumab is decreasing by €0.3 million.
General and administrative expenses
General and administrative expenses from continuing activities decreased by €3.0 million, or 24.7%, to €9.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to general and administrative expenses of €12.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. General and administrative expenses represented a total of 22.5% and 32.7% of the total operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
Personnel expense includes the compensation paid to our employees, and decreased by €1.4 million, to €4.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to €5.8 million for six months ended June 30, 2022. This decrease of €1.4 million is mainly due to a reduction of administrative workforce.
Non-scientific advisory and consulting expenses mostly consist of auditing, accounting, taxation and legal fees as well as consulting fees in relation to business strategy and operations and hiring services. Non-scientific advisory and consulting expenses
Innate Pharma |HY 2023 Financial results | 17
decreased by €0.6 million, or 25.9%, to €1.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to €2.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. This decrease is mainly due to the decrease in fees in connection with a limited use of recruitment agencies and strategic consulting in first half 2023 compared to first half 2022.
The fall in other expenses of €1.0 million mainly results from a decrease on leasing and maintenance for €0.5 million for the benefit of research and development enabling a more consistent allocation of support expenses to the company's research laboratory as well as a decrease of €0.2 million on external communication and investor relations service providers.
Financial income (loss), net
We recognized a net financial income of €2.1 million in the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to a net financial loss of €2.1 million in the six months ended June 30, 2022. This variance mainly results from the variance in fair value of our financial instruments (net gain of €1.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to a net loss of €2.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022) and a net foreign exchange gain of €0.4 million for the first half of 2023 as compared to a net foreign exchange gain of €0.1 million for the first half of 2022.
Net loss from discontinued operations
As a reminder, a Termination and Transition Agreement was negotiated and executed, effective as of June 30, 2021 further to the Company's decision to return the rights of Lumoxiti back to AstraZeneca. Consecutively, activities related to Lumoxiti are presented as discontinued operations since October 1, 2021.
Thus, the net income from discontinued operations related to Lumoxiti are nil compared to a net loss of €0.1 million for the first half of 2022 corresponding to residual costs associated with the transfer of activities to AstraZeneca. This transfer has now been completed.
Balance sheet items
Cash, cash equivalents, short-term investments and non-current financial assets amounted to €124.7 million as of June 30, 2023, as compared to €136.6 million as of December 31, 2022. Net cash as of June 30, 2023 amounted to €83.6 million (€99.4 million as of December 31, 2022). Net cash is equal to cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments less current financial liabilities.
The Company also has bank borrowings of €39.6m, including €28.7m of State Guaranteed Loans (“Prêts Garantis par l’Etat”) as of June 30, 2023, and €1.1m of lease liabilities.
The other key balance sheet items as of June 30, 2023 are:
•Deferred revenue of €11.0 million (including €6.0 million booked as ‘Deferred revenue – non-current portion’) and collaboration liabilities of €56.1 million (including €49.5 million booked as ‘Collaboration liabilities - non-current portion’) relating to the remainder of the initial payment received from AstraZeneca not yet recognized as revenue or used as part of the co-financing of the monalizumab program with AstraZeneca;
Innate Pharma |HY 2023 Financial results | 18
•Receivables from the French government amounting to €43.9 million in relation to the research tax credit for 2019, 2020, 2022 and the six-month period ended June 30, 2023;
•Shareholders’ equity of €57.9 million, including the net income of the period of €1.7 million.
Cash-flow items
As of June 30, 2023, cash and cash equivalents amounted to €71.4 million, compared to €84.2 million as of December 31, 2022, corresponding in a decrease of €12.8 million.
The net cash flow used during the period under review mainly results from the following:
•Net cash flow used by operations of €11.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to net cash flows generated by operations of €1.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The net cash flow used in operating activities includes (i) the €25.0 million upfront payment received from Sanofi in March 2023 following the effectiveness of the research collaboration and licensing agreement signed in December 2022 under which the Company granted Sanofi an exclusive license to Innate Pharma's B7-H3 ANKET® program and options on two additional targets, but also (ii) the €4.6 million ($5.0 million) upfront payment received from Takeda following the signing of an exclusive licensing agreement which the Company grants Takeda exclusive worldwide rights for the research and development of antibody drug conjugates (ADCs). As a reminder, net cash flow from operating activities for the first half of 2022 included the collection of €47.7 million, in June 2022, following the treatment of the first patient in the second Phase 3 clinical trial evaluating monalizumab, “PACIFIC-9”, partially offset by the €5.9 million payment to AstraZeneca on April 20, 2022 pursuant to the Lumoxiti termination and transition agreement. Restated for these transactions, net cash flow used in operating activities for the first half of 2023 increased by €0.5 million as compared to the first half of 2022. This change mainly results from the occurrence of exceptional cash flows in the first half of 2022, notably in connection with personnel costs and the BPI repayable advance. Net outflows in connection with the monalizumab and IPH5201 collaboration agreement were stable over the period. Net cash flow consumed by operating activities in connection with the Lumoxiti discontinued operation are nil for the first half of 2023, as compared to €5.5 million for the first half of 2022. The amount consumed for the first half of 2022 mainly relates to the payment of €5.9 million ($6.2 million) made to AstraZeneca in April 2022 in accordance with the Lumoxiti termination and transition agreement effective as of June 30, 2021.
•Net cash flow used in investing activities of €0.2 million, as compared to €0.4 million for the first half of 2022. The Company has not made any other investments in tangible, intangible or significant financial assets during the first half of 2023 and 2022. Net cash flows consumed by investing activities in connection with the Lumoxiti discontinued operation were nil for the first half of 2023 and 2022.
•Net cash flows used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2023 were €1.2 million as compared to net cash flow used in financing activities of €1.0 million the six months ended June 30, 2022. These consumptions are mainly related
Innate Pharma |HY 2023 Financial results | 19
to repayments of financial liabilities. Net cash flows consumed by financing activities in connection with the Lumoxiti discontinued operation were nil for the first half of 2023 and 2022.
Post period events
None.

Innate has entered into collaborations with leaders in the biopharmaceutical industry, such as AstraZeneca and Sanofi. Innate Pharma believes its drug candidates and clinical development approach are differentiated from current immuno-oncology therapies and have the potential to significantly improve the clinical outcome for patients with cancer.
Since its creation, the Company has suffered losses due to its research and development ("R&D") activities. The first half of 2023 generated a net income of 1,718 thousand euros. As of June 30, 2023, shareholders' equity amounted to 57,863 thousand euros. Subject to receiving new milestone payments related to its collaboration agreements, the Company expects to incur additional losses until, if necessary, it can generate significant revenues from its drug candidates in development.
The Company’s future operations are highly dependent on a combination of factors, including: (i) the success of its R&D; (ii) regulatory approval and market acceptance of the Company’s future drug candidates; (iii) the timely and successful completion of additional financing; and (iv) the development of competitive therapies by other biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies. As a result, the Company is and should continue, in the short to mid-term, to be financed through partnership agreements for the development and commercialization of its drug candidates and through the issuance of new equity instruments.
The activity of the Company is not subject to seasonal effects.
As of June 30, 2023, the Company had one wholly owned subsidiary: Innate Pharma, Inc., incorporated under the laws of Delaware in 2009.
Innate Pharma is based in Marseille, France and listed on Euronext in Paris and Nasdaq in US, and had 191 employees as of June 30, 2023.

HALF-YEAR MANAGEMENT REVIEW
The key elements of Innate Pharma’s financial results for the first half of 2023 are as follows:
•Cash, cash equivalents and financial assets (current and non-current) amounting to €124.7m (million euros) as of June 30, 2023 (€136.6m as of December 31, 2022). At the same date, the financial liabilities amounted to €40.7m, including €35.3m of non-current liabilities (€42.3m as of December 31, 2022, including €40.1m of non-current financial liabilities).
•Revenue and other income from continuing operations amounting to €40.2m (€45.6m for the first half of 2022). This amount mainly results from collaboration and licensing revenue (€35.3m) and from research tax credit (€4.9m). Revenue from collaboration and licensing agreements mainly result from the agreements with AstraZeneca/Medimmune, Sanofi/Genzyme and Takeda.
•Operating expenses from continuing operations amounting to €40.6m (€37.1m first half of 2022), of which 77.5% are related to research and development. Research and development expenses from continuing operations amount to €31.5m compared to €25.0m for the first half of 2022 and increase by €6.5m, mainly explained by (i) a €4.9m increase in direct R&D expenses relating to €4.8m non-clinical program in Antibody Drug Conjugates – ADC field and a slight increase of clinical programs of €0.1m; (ii) Personnel expenses and other R&D expenses are increasing by €1.6m (12.9%) to reach €14.2m first half 2023 compared to €12.6m first half 2022. This increase is mainly explained by €2.0m amortization for the rights relating to IPH5201 following the first patient dosed in the Phase 2 MATISSE clinical trial. The amortization of rights related to the monalizumab is decreasing by €0.3m. General and administrative expenses from continuing operations amounting to €9.1m (€12.1m for the first half of 2022), decreasing by €3.0m. This decrease results mainly from (i) €1.4m decrease of personnel expenses is mainly due to on the one hand, a reduction of administrative workforce, (ii) €0.6m decrease on non-scientific advisory and consulting fees (limited use of recruitment agencies and strategic consulting), and finally (iii) a decrease on other expenses for €1.0m mainly related to a decrease on leasing and maintenance for €0.5m to the benefit of research and development enabling a more consistent allocation of support expenses to the company's research laboratory as well as a reduction of 0.2 million following more limited use of external communication and investor relations service providers.
•A loss on the Lumoxiti discontinued operations nil (compared to a net loss of €0.1m for the first half of 2022).
•A net income for the first half of 2023 amounting to €1.7m (compared to net income of €6.3m for the first half of 2022).

Revenue from collaboration and licensing agreements
Revenue from collaboration and licensing agreements decreased by €5.9 million, to €35.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to revenue from collaboration and licensing agreements of €41.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. As a reminder, these revenues mainly resulted from the spreading of proceeds received in connection with the agreements signed with AstraZeneca in April 2015 and October 2018 with Sanofi in 2016 and 2022 and with Takeda in 2023. These revenues are recognized when the entity's performance obligation is met. Their accounting is made at a point in time or spread over time according to the percentage of completion of the work that the Company is committed to carry out under these agreements. Revenue from collaboration and licensing agreements are set forth in the table below:

Proceeds from collaboration and licensing agreements
Proceeds from collaboration and licensing agreements result from the partial or entire recognition of the proceeds received pursuant to the agreements with AstraZeneca, Sanofi and Takeda and which are recognized on the basis of the percentage of completion of the works performed by the Company under such agreements.
For monalizumab, these amounts result from the partial recognition of the $250.0 million non-refundable upfront payment and the $100 million milestone regarding the exercise of the option received in June 2015 and October 2018 from AstraZeneca. The additional payment of $50.0 million received from AstraZeneca in December 2020 triggered by the dosing of the first patient in the Phase 3 trial evaluating monalizumab was treated in full as a collaboration commitment ("collaboration liability" in the consolidated balance sheet) in view to the commitment
Innate Pharma |Half-year financial report June 30, 2023 | 5
linked to the agreement for the Phase 1/2 (co-financing) and Phase 3 studies (amendment signed in September 2020). Consequently, this additional payment has no impact on the transaction price.
In addition to these amounts, AstraZeneca made an additional payment of $50.0 million in June 2022, triggered by the treatment of the first patient in a second Phase 3 trial evaluating monalizumab in April 2022. This additional payment has been treated as a collaboration commitment ("collaboration liability" in the consolidated balance sheet) for an amount of $36.0 million in view to the contractual commitment linked to the Phase 1/2 studies (co-funding under the initial contract). The remaining $14.0 million was treated as a change in estimate of the transaction price, recognized in the income statement in line with the progress of the Phase 1/2 studies. This event in 2022 mainly explains the change of revenue recognized under monalizumab agreements in the first half of 2023 as compared to the first half of 2022 (additional revenue recognized).
The amounts not yet recognized in revenue are classified as deferred revenue.
Proceeds related to monalizumab - AstraZeneca:
Revenue related to monalizumab decreased by €6.9 million, to €9.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to €16.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. This change mainly results from the transaction price increase of €13.4 million ($14.0 million) in the first half of 2022, triggered by the launch of the “PACIFIC-9” Phase 3 trial on April 28, 2022. As a reminder, this increase in the transaction price led to the recognition of an additional revenue of €12.5 million for the first half of 2022. However, this decrease is offset by an increase in monalizumab-related revenues for the first half of 2023, in line with the progress of Phase 1/2 trials over the period.
As of June 30, 2023, the deferred revenue related to monalizumab is €4.7 million entirely classified as “Deferred revenue—Current portion” in connection with the maturity of Phase 1/2 trials.
Proceeds related to IPH5201 - AstraZeneca:
Revenue related to IPH5201 for the six months ended June 30, 2023 are nil as compared to a €4.8 million revenue for the first half of 2022 which resulted from the entire recognition in revenue of the $5.0 million milestone payment received from AstraZeneca following the signature on June 1, 2022 of an amendment to the initial contract signed in October 2018. As a reminder, this amendment set the terms of the collaboration following decision to advance IPH5201 to a Phase 2 study. The Company conducts the study. Both parties share the external cost related to the study and incurred by the Company and AstraZeneca provides products necessary to conduct the clinical trial.
Proceeds related to the 2018 option agreement relating to future programs - AstraZeneca:
As a reminder, during the first half of 2022, AstraZeneca informed the Company that it will not exercise its option to license the four preclinical programs covered in the "Future Programs Option Agreement". This option agreement was part of the 2018 multi-term agreement between AstraZeneca and the Company under which the Company received an upfront payment of $20.0 million (€17.4 million). Innate has regained full rights to further develop the four preclinical molecules. Consequently, the entire initial payment of $20.0 million, or €17.4 million was recognized as revenue as of June 30, 2022.
Proceeds related to Sanofi licensing and collaboration agreement (2016) :
Revenue related to the license and collaboration agreement signed with Sanofi in 2016 decreased by €1.0 million, to €2.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to €3.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The Company announced that, in June 2023, the first patient was dosed in a Sanofi-sponsored Phase 1/2
Innate Pharma |Half-year financial report June 30, 2023 | 6
clinical trial evaluating IPH6401/SAR'514 in relapsed or refractory Multiple Myeloma. As provided by the licensing agreement signed in 2016, Sanofi made a milestone payment of €2.0 million, fully recognized in revenue as of June 30, 2023. This amount was received by the Company on July 21, 2023. As a reminder, the revenue recognized in the first half of 2022 resulted from Sanofi's decision to advance IPH6401/SAR'514 into investigational new drug (IND)-enabling studies. As such, Sanofi had selected a second multispecific antibody engaging NK cells as a drug candidate. This selection triggered a €3.0 million milestone payment from Sanofi to the Company, fully recognized in revenue as of June 30, 2022. This amount was received by the Company on September 9, 2022.
Proceeds related to Sanofi research collaboration and licensing agreement (2022) :
On December 19, 2022, the Company announced that it had entered into a research collaboration and license agreement with Genzyme Corporation, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Sanofi (“Sanofi”) pursuant to which the Company granted Sanofi an exclusive license on the Innate Pharma's B7-H3 ANKET® program and options on two additional targets. On January 25, 2023, the Company announced the expiration of the waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino (HSR) Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976 and the effectiveness of the licensing agreement as of January 24, 2023. Consequently, the Company received an upfront payment of €25.0 million in March 2023, including €18.5 million for the exclusive license, €1.5 million for the research work and €5.0 million for the two additional targets options.
The Company considers that the license to the B7-H3 technology is a right to use the intellectual property granted exclusively to Sanofi from the effective date of the agreement. As such, the €18.5 million upfront payment relating to the exclusive license has been fully recognized in revenue as of June 30, 2023.
The Company will provide collaborative research services to Sanofi for an initial estimated three years period from the effective date of the collaboration, i.e. January 24, 2023. During this period, Sanofi and Innate will collaborate and work on research activities as defined in the work program described in the agreement. Consequently, the corresponding upfront payment of €1.5 million will be recognized on a straight-line basis over the duration of the research work that the Company has agreed to carry out. As a result, a €0.2 million has been recognized in revenue as of June 30, 2023, and amounts not recognized in revenue are classified as deferred revenue—current portion for €0.4 million and deferred revenue—non-current portion for €0.9 million.
Under the terms of this agreement, the Company has also granted two exclusive options, exercisable no later than three years after the effective date, for exclusive licenses to Innate's intellectual property for the research, development, manufacture and commercialization of NKCEs specifically targeting two preclinical molecules. The Company considers that the option to acquire an exclusive license provide a material right to Sanofi that it would not receive without entering into this agreement. The Company will recognize the related revenues either at the reporting date or three years after the effective date. Consequently, the €5.0 million initial payment relating to these options is recognized in deferred revenue—non-current portion as of June 30, 2023.
Proceeds related to Takeda licensing agreement (2023) :
On April 3, 2023, the Company announced that it has entered into an exclusive license agreement with Takeda under which Innate grants Takeda exclusive worldwide rights to research and develop antibody drug conjugates (ADC) using a panel of selected Innate antibodies against an undisclosed target, with a primary focus in Celiac disease. Takeda will be responsible for the future development, manufacture and commercialization of any potential products developed using the licensed antibodies. As such, the Company considers that the license granted is a right to use the intellectual property, which is granted fully and perpetually to Takeda. The agreement does not stipulate that Innate's activities will significantly affect the intellectual property granted during the life of the agreement. Consequently, the $5.0 million (or €4.6 million) initial payment, received by the Company in May 2023, was fully recognized in revenue as of June 30, 2023.
Innate Pharma |Half-year financial report June 30, 2023 | 7
Invoicing of research and development costs - AstraZeneca:
Pursuant to our agreements with AstraZeneca, external research and development costs related to IPH5201 are equally shared between Innate Pharma and AstraZeneca, in accordance with the amendment signed in June 2022. These costs are invoiced back on a quarterly basis.
Revenue from invoicing of research and development costs for the six months ended June 30, 2023 increased by €0.6 million as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022. The change between the two periods is mainly explained by the increase in research and development costs incurred by the Company under these agreements during the first half of 2023 in line with the clinical trial progress.
Government financing for research expenditures
The table below details government funding for research expenditures for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022.
| in thousands of euro | June 30, 2023 | June 30, 2022 | ||||||
| Research tax credits | 4,854 (1) | 4,270 | ||||||
| Grants | 0 | 49 | ||||||
| Government financing for research expenditures | 4,854 | 4,319 | ||||||
(1) As of June 30, 2023, the amount is mainly composed of (i) the research tax credit calculated and recognized for the 2022 financial year for an amount of €5,0 million from which is subtracted (ii) a provision amounting to €0.2 milion relating to the additionnal provision in connection with the tax inspection carried out in 2022 by the French tax authorities relating to the 2019 and 2020 financial years, as well as the research tax credit and the accuracy of its calculation for the 2018 to 2020 financial years.
Government financing for research expenditures increased by €0.5 million, or 12.4%, to €4.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to €4.3 million the six months ended June 30, 2022. This change is primarily a result of a increase in the research tax credit of €0.6 million, which is mainly due to (i) the increase in depreciation on IPH5201 rights following the full amortization of the additional payment of €2.0 million due to Orega Biotech following the dosing of the first patient in the Phase 2 MATISSE clinical trial, and (ii) the absence of grants recognized during the first half of 2023 as compared to the remaining Force financing of €0,7 million received in the first half of 2022 from BPI following the technical and commercial failure of the project based on the results of the Phase 2 "Force" trial evaluating avdoralimab in COVID-19.
However, these decreases are partially offset by a decrease in public and private R&D subcontracting expenses eligible due to the maturity of clinical trials and the non-inclusion, as a precautionary measure, of subcontracting expenses with a supplier whose agreement is in the process of being renewed as of June 30, 2023. In addition, this decrease is also explained by the decrease in amortization of the monalizumab intangible asset due to the extension of the amortization period, as well as for certain tangible assets which had reached the end of their amortization period, and also by lower R&D personnel costs.
As a reminder, the research tax credit is calculated as 30% of the amount of research and development expenses, net of grants received, eligible for the research tax credit for the fiscal year.
Innate Pharma |Half-year financial report June 30, 2023 | 8
B.Operating expenses
The table below presents our operating expenses from continuing activities for the six months periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022:
| in thousands of euro | June 30, 2023 | June 30, 2022 | ||||||
| Research and development expenses | (31,453) | (24,956) | ||||||
| General and administrative expenses | (9,144) | (12,140) | ||||||
| Operating expenses | (40,597) | (37,096) | ||||||
Research and development expenses (R&D)
R&D expenses from continuing activities in the periods presented primarily relate to activities for the Company’s clinical and preclinical programs. Our research and development expenses are broken down as set forth in the table below :
| in thousands of euro | June 30, 2023 | June 30, 2022 | ||||||
| Monalizumab | (604) | (770) | ||||||
| Lacutamab | (6,719) | (6,900) | ||||||
| IPH5201 | (1,236) | (363) | ||||||
| Other programs | (142) | (536) | ||||||
| Sub-total programs in clinical development | (8,701) | (8,569) | ||||||
| Sub-total programs in preclinical development | (8,565) | (3,819) | ||||||
| Total direct research and development expenses | (17,265) | (12,388) | ||||||
| Personnel expenses (including share-based payments) | (8,686) | (8,722) | ||||||
| Depreciation and amortization | (3,044) | (1,273) | ||||||
| Other expenses | (2,458) | (2,574) | ||||||
| Personnel and other expenses | (14,188) | (12,569) | ||||||
| Total research and development expenses | (31,453) | (24,956) | ||||||
R&D expenses from continuing activities increased by €6.5 million, or 26.0%, to €31.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to R&D of €25.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022.
R&D expenses represented a total of 77.5% and 67.3% of the total operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. June 30, 2023, we had 149 employees in research and development functions, compared to 152 employees as of June 30, 2022.
Direct R&D expenses increased by €4.9 million, or 39.4%, to €17.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to an amount of €12.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. This increase is mainly explained by €4.8 million non-clinical program in Antibody Drug Conjugates – ADC field and a slight increase of clinical programs of €0.1million; The increase of €0.9 million on IPH5201 is linked to startup costs of phase 2 MATISSE clinical trial and is partly offset by the decrease expenses related to lacutamab program for €0.2 million as well as avdoralimab and monalizumab programs for respectively 0.2 million euros and 0.2 million euros. These decreases follow the decision taken by the Company at the end of the first half of 2020 to stop recruitment in trials
Innate Pharma |Half-year financial report June 30, 2023 | 9
evaluating avdoralimab in oncology and the maturity of phase I/II clinical trials entering the scope of the collaboration with AstraZeneca regarding monalizumab.
Also, as of June 30, 2023, the collaboration liabilities relating to monalizumab and the agreements signed with AstraZeneca in April 2015, October 2018 and September 2020 amounted to €56.1 million, as compared to collaborations liabilities to €63.2 million as of December 31, 2022. This decrease of €7.2 million mainly results from (i) the net reimbursement of €6.4 million made in the first half 2023 to AstraZeneca relating to the co-financing of the monalizumab program, mainly including the Phase 3 INTERLINK-1 trial launched in October 2020 and (ii) the decrease in the collaboration commitment for the amount of €1.1 million in connection with the observed exchange rate fluctuations over the period for the euro-dollar parity.
Personnel and other expenses allocated to R&D increased by €1.6 million, or 12.9%, to €14.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to an amount of €12.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. This increase is mainly due to €2.0 million amortization for the rights relating to IPH5201 following the first patient dosed in the Phase 2 MATISSE clinical trial. The amortization of rights related to the monalizumab is decreasing by €0.3 million.
General and administrative expenses:
General and administrative expenses from continuing activities decreased by €3.0 million, or 24.7%, to €9.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to general and administrative expenses of €12.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. General and administrative expenses represented a total of 22.5% and 32.7% of the total operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The table below presents our general and administrative expenses by nature for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022:
| in thousands of euro | June 30, 2023 | June 30, 2022 | ||||||
| Personnel expenses (including shared-based payments) | (4,367) | (5,769) | ||||||
| Non scientific advisory and consulting | (1,662) | (2,242) | ||||||
| Other expenses (1) | (3,116) | (4,129) | ||||||
| Total general and administrative expenses | (9,144) | (12,140) | ||||||
(1) Other expenses are related to intellectual property, maintenance costs for laboratory equipment and our premises, depreciation and amortization and other selling, general and administrative expenses.
Personnel expense includes the compensation paid to our employees, and decreased by €1.4 million, to €4.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to €5.8 million for six months ended June 30, 2022. This decrease of €1.4 million is mainly due to on the one hand, a reduction of administrative workforce.
Non-scientific advisory and consulting expenses mostly consist of auditing, accounting, taxation and legal fees as well as consulting fees in relation to business strategy and operations and hiring services. Non-scientific advisory and consulting expenses decreased by €0.6 million, or 25.9%, to €1.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to €2.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. This decrease is mainly due to the decrease in fees in connection with a limited use of recruitment agencies and strategic consulting in first half 2023 compared to first half 2022.
The fall in other expenses of €1.0m mainly results from a decrease on leasing and maintenance for €0.5 million for the benefit of research and development enabling a more consistent allocation of support expenses to the
Innate Pharma |Half-year financial report June 30, 2023 | 10
company's research laboratory as well as a decrease of €0.2 million on external communication and investor relations service providers.
C.Net financial income (loss)
We recognized a net financial income of €2.1 million in the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to a net financial loss of €2.1 million in the six months ended June 30, 2022. This variance mainly results from the variance in fair value of our financial instruments (net gain of €1.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to a net loss of €2.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022) and a net foreign exchange gain of €0.4 million for the first half of 2023 as compared to a net foreign exchange gain of €0.1 million for the first half of 2022.
The table below presents the components of our net financial income (loss) for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022:
| (in thousands of euro) | June 30, 2023 | June 30, 2022 | ||||||
| Interests on financial assets | 965 | 198 | ||||||
| Change in valuation allowance on financial instruments | 1,044 | 53 | ||||||
| Foreign exchange gains | 1,073 | 3,797 | ||||||
| Other financial income | — | — | ||||||
| Financial income | 3,083 | 4,048 | ||||||
| Foreign exchange losses | (642) | (3,663) | ||||||
| Unrealized losses on financial assets | — | (2,309) | ||||||
| Interest on financial liabilities | (324) | (194) | ||||||
| Other financial expenses | — | — | ||||||
| Financial expenses | (966) | (6,166) | ||||||
| Net financial income (loss) | 2,116 | (2,118) | ||||||
For the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the foreign exchange gains and losses mainly result from the variance of the exchange rate between the Euro and the U.S. dollar on U.S. dollar-denominated cash and cash equivalents and financial assets. Unrealized losses on financial assets relate to unquoted instruments.
D.Net income (loss) from discontinued operations
As a reminder, a Termination and Transition Agreement was negotiated and executed, effective as of June 30, 2021 further to the Company's decision to return the rights of Lumoxiti back to AstraZeneca. Consecutively, activities related to Lumoxiti are presented as discontinued operations since October 1, 2021.

E.Balance sheet items
Cash, cash equivalents, short-term investments and non-current financial assets amounted to €124.7m as of June 30, 2023, as compared to €136.6m as of December 31, 2022. Net cash as of June 30, 2023 amounted to €83.6m (€99.4m as of December 31, 2022). Net cash is equal to cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments less current financial liabilities.
Since its incorporation in 1999, the Company has been primarily financed by revenue from its collaboration, licensing agreements (€557.6m in total, or $633.2m), and by issuing new shares (€306.4m in total excluding share-based payments and the costs the costs associated with capital increases). The Company has also benefited from the research tax credit (CIR) and fundings received from BPI France (ex-Oseo) in repayable advances not bearing interest and PTZI loan. As of June 30, 2023, the Company is not liable for any reimbursement in respect of these reimbursable advances and PTZI loan. The Company also has bank borrowings of €39.6m, including €28.7m of State Guaranteed Loans (“Prêts Garantis par l’Etat”) as of June 30, 2023, and €1.1m of lease liabilities.

Thus, the CIR for the years 2019 and 2020 represent a claim on the French Treasury which will be reimbursed to the company in 2023 and 2024 respectively. For the 2021 and 2022 financial years, The Company met again the definition of an SME Company according to the criteria of the European Union and therefore benefits from the early reimbursement of the CIR in 2022 and 2023 for the 2021 and 2022 tax years, respectively. Since its creation, the Company has benefited from the CIR to the tune of €134.8m, of which €100.1m have been reimbursed at the date of this report.

| Cash flows from / (used in) investing activities | (246) | (395) | ||||||
| Cash flows from / (used in) financing activities | (1,246) | (960) | ||||||
| Effect of the exchange rate changes | 145 | (670) | ||||||
| Net increase / (decrease) in cash and cash equivalents: | (12,811) | (808) | ||||||
Cash flows from / (used in) operating activities:
Net cash flow used in operating activities increased by €12.7 million to €11.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to net cash flow from operating activities of €1.2 million for the six months ended June June 30, 2022. The net cash flow used in operating activities includes (i) the €25,0 million upfront payment received from Sanofi in March 2023 following the effectiveness of the research collaboration and licensing agreement signed in December 2022 under which the Company granted Sanofi an exclusive license to Innate Pharma's B7-H3 ANKET® program and options on two additional targets, but also (ii) the €4.6 million ($5.0 million) upfront payment received from Takeda following the signing of an exclusive licensing agreement which the Company grants Takeda exclusive worldwide rights for the research and development of antibody drug conjugates (ADCs).

Restated for these transactions, net cash flow used in operating activities for the first half of 2023 increased by €0.5 million as compared to the first half of 2022. This change mainly results from the occurrence of exceptional cash flows in the first half of 2022, notably in connection with personnel costs and the BPI repayable advance. Net outflows in connection with the monalizumab and IPH5201 collaboration agreement were stable over the period.
Net cash flow consumed by operating activities in connection with the Lumoxiti discontinued operation are nil for the first half of 2023, as compared to €5.5 million for the first half of 2022.

F.Interim Condensed Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
1.The Company and key events
1.1The company
Innate Pharma SA (the “Company” and, with its subsidiary, referred to as the “Group”), is a global, clinical-stage biotechnology company developing immunotherapies for cancer patients. Its innovative approach aims to harness the innate immune system through therapeutic antibodies and its ANKET® (Antibody-based NK cell Engager Therapeutics) proprietary platform. Innate’s portfolio includes lead proprietary program lacutamab, developed in advanced form of cutaneous T cell lymphomas and peripheral T cell lymphomas, monalizumab developed with AstraZeneca in non small cell lung cancer, as well as ANKET® multi-specific NK cell engagers to address multiple tumor types. The Company has developed, internally and through its business development strategy, a broad and diversified portfolio including six clinical drug candidates and a robust preclinical pipeline. Innate has entered into collaborations with leaders in the biopharmaceutical industry, such as AstraZeneca and Sanofi. Innate Pharma believes its drug candidates and clinical development approach are differentiated from current immuno-oncology therapies and have the potential to significantly improve the clinical outcome for patients with cancer.
Since its creation, the Company has suffered losses due to its research and development ("R&D") activities. The first half of 2023 generated a net income of 1,718 thousand euros. As of June 30, 2023, shareholders' equity amounted to 57,863 thousand euros. Subject to receiving new milestone payments related to its collaboration agreements, the Company expects to incur additional losses until, if necessary, it can generate significant revenues from its drug candidates in development.
The Company’s future operations are highly dependent on a combination of factors, including: (i) the success of its R&D; (ii) regulatory approval and market acceptance of the Company’s future drug candidates; (iii) the timely and successful completion of additional financing; and (iv) the development of competitive therapies by other biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies. As a result, the Company is and should continue, in the short to mid-term, to be financed through partnership agreements for the development and commercialization of its drug candidates and through the issuance of new equity instruments.
The activity of the Company is not subject to seasonal effects.
As of June 30, 2023, the Company had one wholly owned subsidiary: Innate Pharma, Inc., incorporated under the laws of Delaware in 2009.
Innate Pharma is based in Marseille, France and listed on Euronext Paris and Nasdaq in the U.S., and had 191 employees as of June 30, 2023.

The results of the operations for the six months ended June 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2023 or for any other interim period or for any year in the future.
Except for number of shares and per share amounts, all amounts are expressed in thousands of euros, unless stated otherwise. Some amounts may be rounded for the calculation of financial information contained in the interim condensed consolidated financial statements. Accordingly, the totals in some tables may not be the exact sum of the preceding figures.
2.2Use of judgments and estimates
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with IFRS requires the Company to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period.
These estimates can be revised where the circumstances on which they are based change. The actual results may therefore differ from the estimates initially formulated. The estimates and judgments which are mainly used by the Company are detailed in note 18.1.1 in paragraph 2.w) of the appendix to the consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2022 of the Universal Registration Document published on April 6, 2023. Estimates and judgments which impact the condensed consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2023 are:
•accounting for collaboration and licensing agreements (note 6 and 13);
•estimate of the useful life of the acquired licenses (note 6).

•Amendements to IAS 8 : Accounting policies, Changes in accounting Estimates and Errors;

Cash and cash equivalents are mainly composed of current bank accounts, interest-bearing accounts and fixed-term accounts.
As of June 30, 2023, the Company also holds six units in “SICAVs” and shares in mutual funds. The risk profiles of these funds are rated from 1 to 7 by the financial institution that manages and markets these funds (1 being the lowest risk profile).When the maturity of shares in mutual funds is longer than one year, they are classified as non-current financial instruments.
Non-current financial assets generally include a guarantee of capital at the maturity date (which is always longer than one year). These instruments are defined by the Company as financial assets at fair value through profit or loss and classified as non-current due to their maturity.
As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the amount of cash, cash equivalents and financials assets denominated in US dollars amounted to €29,488 thousand and €34,735 thousand, respectively.

(1) The Research tax credit is recognized as other operating income in the year to which the eligible research expenditure relates. The amount of €43,936 thousand recognized in current receivables corresponds to the CIR for the 2019, 2020 and 2022 tax year as well as the first half of 2023. Following the fact that the Company no longer met the eligibility criteria for the SME status as of December 31, 2019, the CIR for the 2019 and 2020 tax years represented a non-current receivable which will in principle be offset against the French corporate income tax due by the Company with respect to the following years, or refunded if necessary upon expiry of such a period. Since December 31, 2020, the Company met again the eligibility criteria for the SME status. As such, it was eligible for the early repayment by the French treasury of the 2021 Research Tax Credit for an amount of €10,302 thousand in 2022 and also the 2022 Research Tax Credit for an amount of €9,167 thousand. These amounts was received by the Company on November 16,2022 and July 21, 2023, respectively. The Company is also eligible for a CIR refund in 2023 in respect to the 2019 tax year for an amount of €16,737 thousand, given the expiry of the three-year period. This amount had not yet been received by the Company as of June 30, 2023. In addition, the Company has also classified as a current receivable the CIR in respect of the 2020 tax year for an amount of €13,018 thousand , which is due to expire on December 31, 2023, and the CIR of the first half of 2023 for an amount of €5,014 thousand which is eligible for an early repayment.
(2) As of June 30,2023, the prepaid expenses includes include an amount of €1,131 thousand relating to the guarantee fees in line with the two State Guaranteed Loans from Société Générale and BNP Paribas. Following the extension of these two loans repayment for an additional period, the full amount of the guarantee fee over the additional five-year period has been recognized as an operating expense in 2022. As of June 30, 2023, an adjustment is made through the prepaid accounts to reflect the fact that the expenses are related to the fiscal year (see note 9).
The net book value of the receivables is considered to be a reasonable approximation of their estimated fair value. No valuation allowance was recognized on trade receivables and others as the credit risk of each debtor was considered as not significant.

(1) Following the Company's decision in December 2022 to stop the development of avdoralimab in bullous pemphigoid ("BP") indication in inflammation, only indication supporting the recoverable amount of the asset as of December 31, 2021 (as well that as of June 30, 2022), the rights relating to the intangible asset have been fully impaired for their net book value on the date of the decision, i.e. €41,000 thousand (see below "Avdoralimab (IPH5401) (anti-C5aR) rights acquired from Novo Nordisk A/S').
(2) This amount corresponds to the additional invoice received from Orega Biotech for the rights relating to IPH5201 following the first patient dosed in the Phase 2 MATISSE clinical trial in June 2023, in accordance to the agreement signed in 2019. This additional invoice is fully amortized as of June 30, 2023 and paid on July 2023.
Monalizumab rights under the 2014 monalizumab (NKG2A) Novo Nordisk agreement
Since their acquisition, monalizumab rights are amortized on a straight-line basis over the anticipated residual duration of the Phase II trials. The Company has reassessed the anticipated residual duration of the Phase 2 trials as of June 30, 2023 and estimated that it would be fully amortized by 2023, which is the same estimation as of December 31, 2022, as a result of the completion of some trials and by modifying the estimated end dates relating to certain cohorts.
The net book values of the monalizumab rights were €900 thousand and €1,551 thousand as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.
IPH5201 (Anti-CD39) rights acquired from Orega Biotech
On January 4, 2016, the Company and Orega Biotech entered into an exclusive licensing agreement by which Orega Biotech granted the Company full worldwide rights to its program of first-in-class anti-CD39 checkpoint inhibitors.
Innate Pharma |Half-year financial report June 30, 2023 | 28
The undisclosed upfront payment paid by the Company to Orega Biotech has been recognized as an intangible asset in the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2016. Criteria relating to the first development milestone were reached in December 2016. Consequently, the amount of this milestone was recognized as an intangible asset in addition to the initial payment, for a total of €1.8 million as of December 31, 2021. In June 2019, the Company also paid Orega Biotech €7.0 million in relation to the anti-CD39 program as consideration following the collaboration and option agreement signed on October 22, 2018 with AstraZeneca regarding IPH5201. Under this agreement, the Company also paid in April and June 2020, respectively €2.5 and €0.2 million to Orega Biotech following the first Phase 1 dosing relating to IPH5201.
This asset was amortized on a straight-line basis since November 1, 2018 (corresponding to the effective beginning date of the collaboration) until the date the Company expected to fulfill its commitment (end of fiscal year 2020). These collaboration commitments have all been fulfilled. Thus, the rights relating to IPH5201 have been fully amortized since December 31, 2020.
As a reminder, Orega Biotech claimed joint ownership of certain patents relating to IPH5201. The Company and Orega Biotech have resolved these claims in an arbitration proceeding, which decision was rendered in December 2021. As a result of this decision, the Company is required to pay a low-teen percentage of sub-licensing revenues received by the Company pursuant to its agreement with AstraZeneca regarding IPH5201. Following this arbitration decision, the Company paid in January 2022 an additional amount of €0.4 million to Orega. This additional payment was fully amortized as of December 31, 2021. The Company announced on June 3, 2022 the progress of IPH5201 towards a study of Phase 2 in lung cancer, of which the Company will be a sponsor. In accordance with the amendment signed on June 1, 2022, the Company was eligible for a milestone payment of $5 million by AstraZeneca, received in August 2022 by the Company. In October 2022, the Company therefore paid an additional €0.6 million to Orega Biotech.
On June 26, 2023, the Company announced the treatment of the first patient in the Phase 2 MATISSE trial, conducted in collaboration with AstraZeneca and evaluating IPH5201 in early-stage lung cancer. As a consequence, the Company made an additional payment of €2.0 million to Orega Biotech in July 2023, in accordance with the agreement signed in 2019.
Avdoralimab (IPH5401) (anti-C5aR) rights acquired from Novo Nordisk A/S
At the agreement inception, an upfront payment of €40 million for acquired rights were recorded as intangible asset. As part of this agreement, an additional amount of €1.0 million was paid in October 2020 to Novo Nordisk A / S following the launch of the first avdoralimab Phase II trial. As avdoralimab is still in clinical trial, the acquired rights are classified as intangible asset in progress. They were subject to annual impairment test. No impairment were recorded since inception. These acquired rights will be amortized when the Company obtains economic benefits.
According to the agreement, the Company will pay additional payments according to the reach of specific steps. As of June 30, 2023, according to the uncertainty of these potential future payments, no liability was recognized.
Development costs incurred by the Company are recognized as research and development expenses.
As a reminder, during 2022 fourth quarter, the Company was informed by the sponsor of the Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating avdoralimab in inflammation in bullous pemphigoid ("BP") indication of its decision to discontinue said trial. Consequently, the Company decided in December 2022 to stop the development of avdoralimab in bullous pemphigoid ("BP") indication in inflammation, only indication supporting the recoverable amount of the asset as of December 31, 2021 (as well that as of June 30, 2022).

(1) On January 5, 2022, the Company announced that it had obtained €28.7 million in non-dilutive financing in the form of two State Guaranteed Loans from Société Générale (€20.0 million) and BNP Paribas (€8.7 million). The Company received the funds related to these two loans on December 27 and 30, 2021 respectively. Both loans have an initial maturity of one year with an option to extend to five years usable from August, 2022. They are 90 % guaranteed by the French government as part of the package of measures put in place by the French government to support companies during the COVID-19 pandemic. In August 2022, the Company has requested the extension of these two loans repayment for an additional period of five years starting in 2022 and including a one-year grace period. Consequently, the Company has obtained agreements from Société Générale and BNP Paribas. The effective interest rates applied to these contracts during the additional period are 1.56 % and 0.95 % for Société Générale and BNP Paribas loans, respectively, excluding insurance and guarantee fees, with an amortization exemption for the entire year 2023. During this grace period, the Company will only be liable for the payment of interest and the guarantee fees, with amortization of the two loans starting in 2024 over a period of four years . The state guarantee fees amounts to €877 thousand and €379 thousand for Société Générale and BNP Paribas loans respectively.
(2) On July 3, 2017, the Company borrowed from the Bank “Société Générale” in order to finance the construction of its future headquarters. This loan amounting to a maximum of €15,200 thousand will be raised during the period of the construction in order to pay the supplier payments as they become due. As of December 31, 2018 and 2019, the loan was raised at an amount of €1,300
The loan release period was limited to August 30, 2019. On August 30, 2019, the Company drew down the remaining portion of the €15,200 thousand loan granted, for an amount of €13,900 thousand. The reimbursement of the capital has begun in August 30, 2019 and will proceed until August 30, 2031 (12 years). Given the development of its portfolio and in particular the refocusing of its activities on research and development, the Company has for the time being suspended the project to build its new head office on the land acquired in Luminy. In the meantime, the loan will be used to finance several structuring projects (improvement of the information system, development of a commercial platform, development of additional premises rented, etc.). As of June 30, 2023, the remaining capital of the loan amounted to €10,736 thousand. The Company authorized collateral over financial “Société Générale” instruments amounting to €15,200 thousand. The security interest on the pledge financial instruments will be released in accordance with the following schedule: €4,200 thousand in July 2024, €5,000 thousand in August 2027 and €6,000 thousand in August 2031.
This loan bears a fixed interest rate of 2.01 %. It is subject to a covenant based on the assumption that the total cash, cash equivalents and current and non-current financial assets are at least equal to principal as of financial year end.
(3) On March 13, 2023, the Company signed an amendment to the lease for the "Le Virage" building, reducing the surface area of the leased premises. The effective date of the lease amendment is March 15, 2023. As a result, and in accordance with IFRS 16, the impact on the consolidated balance sheet at the effective date of the lease amendment is as follows: write-off of a right of use (asset) of €0.5 million and a lease liability of €0.7 million.

11.Capital
11.1Share capital
The Company manages its capital to ensure that the Company will be able to continue as a going concern while maximizing the return to shareholders through the optimization of the debt and equity balance.
As of June 30, 2023, the Company’s share capital amounted to €4,026,536 divided into (i) 80,516,622 ordinary shares, each with a nominal value of €0.05 ; (ii) 6,514 “2016” preferred shares, each with a nominal value of €0.05 , and (iii) 7,581 “2017” preferred shares, each with a nominal value of €0.05 , respectively, fully paid up.
Share capital does not include BSAs, BSAAR, AGAs and AGAPs that have been granted to certain investors or natural persons, both employees and non-employees of the Company, but not yet exercised.
On October 21, 2019 and December 30, 2019, the retention period for the “2016 free preferred shares” has ended. The number of ordinary shares to which the conversion of one preferred share entitle has been determined according to the fulfilment of the performance criteria. Holders of “2016” preferred shares” are entitled to vote at our shareholders’ meetings, to dividends and to preferential subscription rights, on the basis of the number of ordinary shares to which they are entitled if they convert their preferred shares.
In April 3, 2021, the retention period for the "2017 free preferred shares" has ended. The number of ordinary shares to which the conversion of one preferred share entitle has been determined according to the fulfillment of the performance criteria. According to these same performance criteria, the Executive Board of April 7, 2021 noted that the "2017 preferred shares" did not give right to any ordinary shares. The “2017 preferred shares” will not be redeemed by the Company and will remain incorporated into the capital, unless subsequently decided by the Executive Board. As the conversion is void, the "2017 preferred shares" no longer give the right to vote at our general meetings, nor to receive dividends.
In the six months ended June 30, 2023, a capital increase of €15,228 occurred as a result of the Executive Board decisions on April 14, 2023 and July 6, 2023, subsequent to (i) the conversion of 47,100 “2012” BSAAR and (ii) the creation of 223,593 ordinary shares following the set-up of a company saving plan for the benefit of the Company’s employees, including 163,293 ordinary shares issued free of charge (top-up) and (iii) the conversion of 33,860 “2013” BSA. These events led to a net capital increase of €15,228 and an increase in share premium of €332,621 , broken down as follows: (i) a creation of 47,100 ordinary shares, with a nominal value of €0.05 , for an issue price of €2.04 , (ii) a creation of 163,293 ordinary shares, with a nominal value of €0.05 and a creation of 60,300 ordinary shares, with a nominal value of €0.05 , for an issue price of €2.85 per share, and (iii) a creation of 33,860 ordinary shares, with a nominal value of €0.05 , for an issue price of €2.36 .

STATUTORY AUDITORS' REVIEW REPORT ON THE HALF-YEARLY FINANCIAL INFORMATION
This is a free translation into English of the statutory auditors’ review report on the half-yearly financial information issued in French and is provided solely for the convenience of English-speaking users. This report includes information relating to the specific verification of information given in the Group’s half-yearly management report. This report should be read in conjunction with, and construed in accordance with, French law and professional standards applicable in France.
To the Shareholders of INNATE PHARMA,
In compliance with the assignment entrusted to us by your Annual General Meeting and in accordance with the requirements of article L. 451-1-2-III of the French Monetary and Financial Code ("code monétaire et financier"), we hereby report to you on:
•the review of the accompanying condensed half-yearly consolidated financial statements of Innate Pharma, for the period from January 1 to June 30, 2023,
•the verification of the information presented in the half-yearly management report.
These half-year condensed consolidated financial statements were prepared under the responsibility of the Executive Board. Our role is to express a conclusion on these financial statements based on our review.
Conclusion on the financial statements
We conducted our review in accordance with professional standards applicable in France. A review of interim financial information 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 professional standards applicable in France and consequently does 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 accompanying condensed half-yearly consolidated financial statements are not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with IAS 34, the IFRS standard as adopted by the European Union applicable to interim financial information.
Specific verification
We have also verified the information presented in the half-yearly management report commenting the condensed half-yearly consolidated financial statements subject to our review.
We have no matters to report as to its fair presentation and consistency with the condensed half-yearly consolidated financial statements.
