MESOBLAST REPORTS 44% INCREASE IN RYONCIL® NET REVENUE AND 85% IMPROVEMENT IN NET OPERATING CASH SPEND IN FIRST FISCAL QUARTER OVER PRIOR YEAR PERIOD New York, USA: October 15 and Melbourne, Australia: October 16, 2026: Mesoblast Limited (ASX:MSB; Nasdaq:MESO), global leader in allogeneic cellular medicines for inflammatory diseases, today reported a 44% increase in net revenue from sales of Ryoncil® (remestemcel-L-rknd) and 85% improvement in net operating cash spend for the period ended September 30 versus the prior year period, underpinning its strong cash position. September experienced the highest number of new patient starts per month, following the expected seasonality from summer recess-related treatment scheduling that occurs each July and August. For the first fiscal quarter 2026, net revenues from sales of RYONCIL increased by 44% to US$28 million compared with US$19 million for the prior year period. Net operational cash spend improved by 85% to just US$2.3 million compared with US$14.9 million for the prior year period. Revenue growth and disciplined cash allocation underpinned a strong cash position of US$99 million at September 30, 2026. “We see strong year-on-year increase in net revenues and plan for continued growth by increasing penetration and adoption across the 54 onboarded sites,” said Mesoblast Chief Executive Dr. Silviu Itescu. “In parallel, we will continue to show disciplined capital allocation for our commercial manufacturing needs and late-stage clinical programs, in order to maximize shareholder value.” Ryoncil® is the first mesenchymal stromal cell (MSC) product approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for any indication and is the only FDA-approved product for children under age 12 with steroid-refractory acute graft-versus-host disease (SR-aGvHD).1 The results presented herein are based on management’s preliminary estimates and remain subject to completion of customary closing and audit procedures. About Mesoblast Mesoblast (the Company) is a world leader in developing allogeneic (off-the-shelf) cellular medicines for the treatment of severe and life-threatening inflammatory conditions. The therapies from the Company’s proprietary mesenchymal lineage cell therapy technology platform respond to severe inflammation by releasing anti-inflammatory factors that counter and modulate multiple effector arms of the immune system, resulting in significant reduction of the damaging inflammatory process. Mesoblast’s Ryoncil® (remestemcel-L-rknd) for the treatment of steroid-refractory acute graft versus host disease (SR-aGvHD) in pediatric patients 2 months and older is the first FDA-approved mesenchymal stromal cell (MSC) therapy. Please see the full Prescribing Information at www.ryoncil.com. Mesoblast is committed to developing additional cell therapies for distinct indications based on its remestemcel-L and rexlemestrocel-L allogeneic stromal cell technology platforms. Ryoncil® is being developed for additional inflammatory diseases including SR-aGvHD in adults and biologic-resistant inflammatory bowel disease. Rexlemestrocel-L is being developed for heart failure and chronic low back pain. The Company has established commercial partnerships in Japan, Europe and China.
