FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS This presentation contains forward-looking statements within the
meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. All statements other than statements of historical facts are forward-looking statements. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terms such as “may,”

expressions, although not all forward-looking statements contain these words. The forward-looking statements in this presentation relate to, among other things, statements regarding the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval, the number
of marketed products by 2027, the strategic partnership with Galderma, progress on our innovative earlier stage programs, including the anticipated timing of the data read out for SGT-510 and SGT-310 and the NDA submission for SGT-510,
SGT-310 and SGT-210, the future markets for various skin diseases, and, our expectations regarding our liquidity and ability to fund operational and capital expenditure requirements. These statements are neither promises nor guarantees, but
involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other important factors that may cause our actual results, performance, or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance, or achievements expressed or implied
by the forward-looking statement, including but not limited to the following: risks relating to the timing of the PDUFA action date for EPSOLAY, the timing of FDA approval, if any, of EPSOLAY; the risk that we will not be successful in
marketing additional products and the timing of such marketing; the risk that we will not receive the anticipated benefits of the strategic partnership with Galderma; the risk that we don’t progress on our innovative earlier stage programs,
the risk of a delay in the data read out for SGT-510 and SGT-310 and the NDA submission for SGT-510, SGT-310 and SGT-210, if any; the risk that our estimate of the markets for psoriasis and plaque psoriasis are inaccurate; the fact that we
have and expect to continue to incur significant losses; our need for additional funding, which may not be available; our ability to complete the development of, and obtain marketing approval for, our product candidates; our ability to obtain
and maintain regulatory approvals for our product candidates in our target markets and the possibility of adverse regulatory or legal actions relating to our product candidates even if regulatory approval is obtained; our ability to
commercialize and launch our product candidates at all or on a timely basis; our ability to obtain and maintain adequate protection of our intellectual property; our ability to manufacture our product candidates in commercial quantities, at
an adequate quality or at an acceptable cost; acceptance of our product candidates by healthcare professionals and patients; the possibility that we may face third-party claims of intellectual property infringement; the timing and results of
clinical trials that we may conduct or that our competitors and others may conduct relating to our or their products; delays in the launch of product candidates and generic drugs; intense competition in our industry; potential product
liability claims; potential adverse federal, state, and local government regulation in the United States, Europe, or Israel; the impact of pandemics, such as COVID-19 (coronavirus); and loss or retirement of key executives and research
scientists. These and other important factors discussed in the Company's Annual Report on Form 20-F filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 4, 2021, and in our other reports filed with the SEC, could cause actual
results to differ materially from those indicated by the forward-looking statements made in this presentation. Any such forward-looking statements represent management’s estimates as of the date of this presentation. While we may elect to
update such forward-looking statements at some point in the future, unless required by applicable law, we disclaim any obligation to do so, even if subsequent events cause our views to change. Thus, one should not assume that our silence over
time means that actual events are bearing out as expressed or implied in such forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as representing our views as of any date subsequent to the date of this
presentation. This presentation contains trademarks, trade names, and service marks of other companies, which are the property of their respective owners. We do not intend our use or display of other parties' trademarks, trade names, or
