(NASDAQ: OABI) today reported financial results for the three\nmonths ended March 31, 2026, provided operating and partner program updates,\nand increased 2026 financial guidance.\n\n“OmniAb experienced strong momentum during the first quarter as multiple\npartnered programs advanced into later-stage clinical development, reinforcing\nthe diversity and value of our portfolio. With a very strong start to the\nyear, we are raising our 2026 revenue guidance,” stated Matt Foehr, Chief\nExecutive Officer of OmniAb. “Continued progression of partner programs\nhighlights the value of our technology platform and positions our business\nwell for the future. Our innovation efforts continue to differentiate our\nplatform as demonstrated by the launch of OmniUltra(™) and our\nxPloration(®) partner access program.”\n\nFirst Quarter 2026 Financial Results\n\nRevenue for the first quarter of 2026 was $14.4 million, compared with $4.2\nmillion for the same period in 2025, with the increase primarily related to\nmilestone revenue.\n\nResearch and development expense was $9.6 million for the first quarter of\n2026, compared with $12.6 million for the same period in 2025, with the\ndecrease due to lower personnel expense, share-based compensation expense, and\nexternal expenses associated with legacy small molecule ion channel programs.\nGeneral and administrative expense was $6.6 million for the first quarter of\n2026, compared with $7.9 million for the same period in 2025, with the\ndecrease primarily due to lower personnel expense, share-based compensation\nexpense, and legal fees.\n\nAmortization of intangibles increased to $6.0 million for the first quarter of\n2026, compared with $3.2 million for the same period in 2025, primarily due to\na $2.9 million non-cash impairment related to the discontinuation of certain\nlegacy small-molecule ion channel programs.\n\nTotal costs and operating expenses were $22.3 million for the first quarter of\n2026, compared with $23.0 million for the same period in 2025.

Highlights\n\nConference Call Begins at 4:30 p.m. Eastern Time Today\n\nOmniAb, Inc. (NASDAQ: OABI) today reported financial results for the three\nmonths ended March 31, 2026, provided operating and partner program updates,\nand increased 2026 financial guidance.\n\n“OmniAb experienced strong momentum during the first quarter as multiple\npartnered programs advanced into later-stage clinical development, reinforcing\nthe diversity and value of our portfolio. With a very strong start to the\nyear, we are raising our 2026 revenue guidance,” stated Matt Foehr, Chief\nExecutive Officer of OmniAb. “Continued progression of partner programs\nhighlights the value of our technology platform and positions our business\nwell for the future. Our innovation efforts continue to differentiate our\nplatform as demonstrated by the launch of OmniUltra(™) and our\nxPloration(®) partner access program.”\n\nFirst Quarter 2026 Financial Results\n\nRevenue for the first quarter of 2026 was $14.4 million, compared with $4.2\nmillion for the same period in 2025, with the increase primarily related to\nmilestone revenue.\n\nResearch and development expense was $9.6 million for the first quarter of\n2026, compared with $12.6 million for the same period in 2025, with the\ndecrease due to lower personnel expense, share-based compensation expense, and\nexternal expenses associated with legacy small molecule ion channel programs.\nGeneral and administrative expense was $6.6 million for the first quarter of\n2026, compared with $7.9 million for the same period in 2025, with the\ndecrease primarily due to lower personnel expense, share-based compensation\nexpense, and legal fees.\n\nAmortization of intangibles increased to $6.0 million for the first quarter of\n2026, compared with $3.2 million for the same period in 2025, primarily due to\na $2.9 million non-cash impairment related to the discontinuation of certain\nlegacy small-molecule ion channel programs.\n\nTotal costs and operating expenses were $22.3 million for the first quarter of\n2026, compared with $23.0 million for the same period in 2025. Cash costs and\noperating expenses were $12.3 million for the first quarter of 2026, compared\nwith $14.7 million for the same period in 2025 (see note regarding \"Use of\nNon-GAAP Financial Measure\" below for further discussion of this non-GAAP\nmeasure).\n\nNet loss for the first quarter of 2026 was $7.7 million, or $0.06 per share,\ncompared with a net loss of $18.2 million, or $0.17 per share, for the same\nperiod in 2025.\n\n2026 Financial Guidance\n\nOmniAb revises 2026 financial guidance and now expects revenue to be in the\nrange of $28 million to $33 million, versus $25 million to $30 million\npreviously, and costs and operating expenses to be in the range of $83 million\nto $88 million, versus $80 million to $85 million previously. Cash costs and\noperating expenses remain unchanged and are expected to be in the range of $50\nmillion to $55 million (see note regarding \"Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measure\"\nbelow for further discussion of this non-GAAP measure). The Company now\nexpects to end the year with cash and cash equivalents in the range of $33\nmillion to $38 million, versus $30 million to $35 million previously. The\nfull-year 2026 effective tax rate is expected to be approximately 0%.\n\nFirst Quarter 2026 and Recent Business Highlights\n\nDuring the first quarter of 2026, OmniAb entered into a new license agreement\nwith Florida State University. As of March 31, 2026, the Company had 107\nactive partners and 409 active programs, including 32 OmniAb-derived programs\nin clinical development or being commercialized.\n\nBusiness and partner highlights from the first quarter of 2026 and recent\nweeks included the following:\n\nIMVT-1402 & batoclimab\n\n\n * The potentially registrational trial with IMVT-1402 in difficult-to-treat\nrheumatoid arthritis is fully enrolled, with topline data expected in the\nsecond half of this year. Topline data from the proof-of-concept trial with\nIMVT-1402 in cutaneous lupus erythematosus is also expected in the second half\nof this year.\n\n * Potentially registrational studies with IMVT-1402 in Graves’ disease (GD),\nmyasthenia gravis (MG), chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy and\nSjögren’s disease remain on track with topline data in GD and MG expected\nin 2027.\n\n * Immunovant announced topline data from its two Phase 3 studies evaluating\nbatoclimab as a treatment for active, moderate-to-severe thyroid eye disease\nand intends to review future plans for the development of batoclimab with its\npartner HanAll Biopharma Co. Immunovant remains focused on rapidly advancing\nthe clinical development of IMVT-1402.\n\nTEV- '408\n\n\n * Teva Pharmaceuticals announced a funding agreement with Royalty Pharma of up\nto $500 million to accelerate the clinical development of Teva’s anti-IL-15\nantibody TEV-'408 for vitiligo.\n\n * Topline results of the Phase 1b trial evaluating TEV-'408 for vitiligo are\nexpected in the first half of this year. Topline results of the Phase 2a trial\nevaluating TEV-'408 for celiac disease are expected in the second half of this\nyear.\n\nPrecemtabart tocentecan (M9140)\n\n\n * At the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) Gastrointestinal Cancers\nSymposium, pooled data on precemtabart tocentecan, a novel anti‑CEACAM5\nantibody‑drug conjugate with a topoisomerase 1 inhibitor payload, from the\nPROCEADE-CRC-01 study in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer were\npresented that showed an objective response rate of 26.8% and median\nprogression-free survival of 6.9 months. The overall safety profile was\nconsistent with earlier data with no new or unexpected treatment-emergent\nadverse events.\n\n * Merck KGaA indicated that based on Phase 1 data, it plans to advance\nprecemtabart tocentecan directly to Phase 3 trials in metastatic colorectal\ncancer, with study initiation anticipated in the second or third quarter of\n2026.\n\nOmniAb expects that multiple partner programs will be highlighted at the ASCO\nAnnual Meeting taking place May 29 - June 2, 2026.\n\nConference Call and Webcast\n\nOmniAb management will host a conference call with accompanying slides today\nbeginning at 4:30 p.m. Eastern time (1:30 p.m. Pacific time) to discuss this\nannouncement and answer questions.

Non-GAAP financial measures are not an\nalternative for financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. However,\nOmniAb believes the presentation of actual and projected non-GAAP cash costs\nand operating expenses, when viewed in conjunction with GAAP figures, provides\ninvestors with a more meaningful understanding of our operating performance.\nCash costs and operating expense is not intended to be considered in isolation\nor as a substitute for costs and operating expenses. A reconciliation between\nactual and projected GAAP costs and operating expenses and non-GAAP costs and\noperating expenses is provided later in this press release.\n\n[Tables Follow]\n OMNIAB, INC.
