Statements made herein are as of the date of the filing of this Quarterly Report with the SEC and should not be relied upon as of any subsequent date. We disclaim any obligation, except as specifically required by law and the rules of the SEC, to publicly update or revise any such statements to reflect any change in our expectations or in events, conditions or circumstances on which any such statements may be based or that may affect the likelihood that actual results will differ from those set forth in the forward-looking statements.

The following discussion and analysis of the financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report and the consolidated financial statements and related notes in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.

Overview

Savara Inc. (together with its subsidiaries “Savara,” the “Company,” “we,” “our” or “us”) is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on rare respiratory diseases. Our sole program, MOLBREEVI[1], an inhaled biologic, is a granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (“GM-CSF”) in development for autoimmune pulmonary alveolar proteinosis ("autoimmune PAP"). Savara previously announced positive topline results from IMPALA-2, the Phase 3 clinical trial of MOLBREEVI for the treatment of autoimmune PAP and the submission of the Biologics License Application ("BLA") to the FDA for MOLBREEVI in autoimmune PAP. In February 2026, the FDA formally filed the BLA for MOLBREEVI and granted Priority Review. In March 2026, the European Medicines Agency (“EMA”) validated the submission of the MOLBREEVI marketing authorization application (“MAA”) in autoimmune PAP which will be reviewed by the Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use. In April 2026, Savara announced that the U.K. Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (“MHRA”) validated the submission of the MOLBREEVI MAA for the treatment of autoimmune PAP in the U.K. subject to Accelerated Review with a 150-day assessment duration. In April 2026, Savara announced that the FDA extended the review period for the MOLBREEVI BLA to allow the FDA additional time to complete their review. The FDA determined that the Company’s responses to recent information requests by the Agency during their review constituted a major amendment to the BLA, resulting in a three-month extension of the Prescription Drug User Fee Act ("PDUFA") target action date to November 22, 2026. MOLBREEVI for the treatment of autoimmune PAP has been granted Fast Track and Breakthrough Therapy Designations by the FDA, Orphan Drug Designation by the FDA and the EMA, as well as Innovation Passport ("IP") and Promising Innovative Medicine ("PIM") designations by the MHRA. Savara, together with its wholly-owned subsidiaries, which include Aravas Inc. and Savara ApS, operate in one segment with its principal office in Yardley, Pennsylvania, though a majority of our employees work remotely.

Since inception, we have devoted our efforts and resources to identifying and developing our product candidates, recruiting personnel, and raising capital. We have incurred operating losses and negative cash flow from operations and have no product revenue from inception to date. From inception to June 30, 2026, we have raised net cash proceeds of approximately $738.1 million, primarily from underwritten offerings of our common stock, private placements of common stock, and debt financings.

[1] MOLBREEVI is the proposed trade name for molgramostim inhalation solution. It is not approved in any indication. MOLBREEVI is a trademark of Savara Inc.

We have never been profitable and have incurred operating losses every year since inception. Our net losses for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 were $40.2 million and $30.4 million, respectively. The net loss for the year ended December 31, 2025 was $118.8 million. As of June 30, 2026, we had an accumulated deficit of approximately $685.6 million. Our operating losses primarily resulted from expenses attributed to our research and development programs and from general and administrative costs associated with our operations.

We have chosen to operate by outsourcing our manufacturing and most of our clinical operations. We expect to incur significant additional expenses and continue to incur operating losses for at least the next several years as we continue the clinical development of, and seek regulatory approval for, and prepare for the commercialization of our primary product candidate. We expect that our operating losses will fluctuate significantly from quarter to quarter and year to year due to the timing of clinical development programs and efforts to achieve regulatory approval.

As of June 30, 2026, we had cash and cash equivalents of $41.8 million and short-term investments of $131.2 million. We will continue to require additional capital to continue our clinical development and potential commercialization activities. Although we have sufficient capital to fund many of our planned activities, we may need to continue to raise additional capital to further fund the development of, and seek regulatory approvals for, our product candidate and begin to commercialize any approved product. The amount and timing of our future funding requirements will depend on many factors, including the pace and results of our clinical development efforts and regulatory and commercial variability. Failure to raise capital as and when needed, on favorable terms or at all, would have a negative impact on our financial condition and our ability to develop our product candidate.

Financial Operations Overview

Research and Development Expenses

We recognize all research and development costs as they are incurred. Research and development expenses consist primarily of the following:

• expenses incurred under agreements with contract research organizations (“CROs”), consultants, and clinical trial sites that conduct research and development activities on our behalf;
• laboratory and vendor expenses related to the execution of our clinical trials;
• contract manufacturing expenses, primarily for the production of clinical supplies; and
• internal costs that are associated with activities performed by our research and development organization, consisting primarily of:
• personnel costs, which include salaries, benefits, and stock-based compensation expense;
• facilities and other expenses, which include expenses for maintenance of facilities and depreciation expense; and
• regulatory expenses and technology license fees related to development activities.

We expect research and development expenses will remain significant in the future as we advance our MOLBREEVI product candidate through clinical trials and pursue regulatory approvals, which will require a significant increased investment in regulatory support and contract manufacturing activities, including investing in the development of a second source manufacturer and CMC supplies.

The process of conducting clinical trials necessary to obtain regulatory approval is costly and time consuming. We may never succeed in timely developing and achieving regulatory approval for our product candidate. The probability of success of our product candidate may be affected by numerous factors, including clinical data, competition, intellectual property rights, manufacturing capability, and commercial viability. As a result, we are unable to accurately determine the duration and completion costs of our development projects or when and to what extent we will generate revenue from the commercialization and sale of MOLBREEVI.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative ("G&A") expenses consist primarily of salaries, benefits and other related costs, including stock-based compensation, for our non-employee directors and employees primarily serving in our executive, finance, legal, commercial and human resources functions. G&A expenses also include but are not limited to professional fees for legal services, insurance, facility lease, investor relations, business development, board of director fees, consulting services, including information technology and tax and accounting services.

Other Income (Expense), Net

Other income (expense) includes amortization expense related to capitalized debt issuance costs and debt discount under our loan agreements. Refer to Note 6. Debt Facility in the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report. Interest expense is typically reported net of interest income which includes interest earned on our cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investment balances. Other income (expense) also includes net unrealized and realized gains and losses from foreign currency transactions, loss on extinguishment of debt, refundable tax credits generated by some of our foreign subsidiaries, and securities subject to fair value accounting as well as any other non-operating gains and losses.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

There have not been any material changes during the six months ended June 30, 2026, to the methodology applied by management for critical accounting policies previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025. Please read Part II, Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, for further description of our critical accounting policies.

Results of Operations – Comparison of Three Months Ended June 30, 2026 and 2025

(in thousands)

Research and Development

Research and development expenses increased by $1.2 million, or 5.8%, to $22.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 from $20.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025. The increase was primarily due to $2.0 million of higher personnel costs, mainly related to increased stock-based compensation expense; partially offset by the performance of tasks related to our MOLBREEVI program, which includes a decrease of $0.2 million of costs related to our chemistry, manufacturing, and controls activities, primarily driven by activity at our drug substance manufacturer, and a decrease of $0.6 million of costs related to regulatory affairs consulting and quality assurance consulting costs.

General and Administrative

General and administrative expenses increased by $8.3 million, or 78.2%, to $19.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 from $10.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025. The increase was primarily attributable to $7.5 million of higher personnel costs, driven by increased stock-based compensation expense as well as increased headcount growth as we build out our commercial team ahead of and in support of our planned product launch, in addition to an increase of $0.8 million in certain commercial activities. These investments reflect our strategy to establish the commercial infrastructure necessary to support an effective and timely launch.

Other Income, Net

There were no significant changes in Other income, net for the three months ended June 30, 2026 from the three months ended June 30, 2025.

Results of Operations – Comparison of Six Months Ended June 30, 2026 and 2025

(in thousands)

Research and Development

Research and development expenses increased by $5.4 million, or 13.6%, to $45.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 from $39.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025. The increase was primarily due to $5.0 million of higher personnel costs, mainly related to increased stock-based compensation expense.

General and Administrative

General and administrative expenses increased by $14.7 million, or 73.6%, to $34.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 from $19.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025. The increase was primarily attributable to $13.6 million of higher personnel costs, driven by increased stock-based compensation expense as well as increased headcount growth as we build out our commercial team ahead of and in support of our planned product launch; an increase of $0.5 million in certain commercial activities and an increase of $0.6 million in departmental overhead. These investments reflect our strategy to establish the commercial infrastructure necessary to support an effective and timely launch.

Other Income, Net

There were no significant changes in Other Income, Net for the six months ended June 30, 2026 from the six months ended June 30, 2025.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of June 30, 2026, we had $41.8 million of cash and cash equivalents, $131.2 million in short-term investments, and an accumulated deficit of approximately $685.6 million. As discussed in Note 6. Debt Facility in the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report, on March 26, 2025, we entered into the Hercules Loan Agreement, which, as amended, provides for a loan facility of up to $105 million. Proceeds from the initial $30 million tranche drawn under the Hercules Loan Agreement, with a carrying value of $30.1 million, were used to repay all outstanding obligations under the SVB Loan, pay certain expenses incurred in connection with the financing, and for general corporate purposes. Subject to satisfaction of certain conditions, including attainment of FDA approval of MOLBREEVI for the treatment of autoimmune PAP, we may draw future tranches under the Hercules Loan Agreement, as amended, and the royalty purchase and sale agreement with RTW Investments, LP, as discussed in Note 9. Commitments and Contingencies, to fund our ongoing business operations including the development, regulatory approval, marketing and commercialization of MOLBREEVI. Refer to Note 6. Debt Facility of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q for additional discussion.

We have used and intend to use our liquidity and capital for working capital and general corporate purposes, which include, but are not limited to, the funding of clinical development of and pursuing regulatory approval for MOLBREEVI, investing in our commercialization infrastructure and supply, commercial launch preparation activities in the United States and European Union and general and administrative expenses.

Cash Flows

The following table summarizes our cash flows for the periods indicated:

(in thousands)

Cash flows from operating activities

Cash used in operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2026 was $62.8 million, consisting of a net loss of $77.5 million and net $3.1 million in changes to operating assets and liabilities, offset by $17.8 million of net noncash charges. Net noncash charges are comprised primarily of stock-based compensation, accretion on discount to short-term investments, and amortization of debt issuance costs.

Cash flows from investing activities

Cash provided by investing activities of $71.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 was primarily associated with proceeds from maturities of short-term investments and purchases and sales of short-term investments.

Cash flows from financing activities

Cash used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2026 was not significant and primarily composed of funds used by the Company to repurchase shares of common stock in order to cover respective tax liabilities from RSU award vesting, partially offset by proceeds received for the exercise of stock options.

Future Funding Requirements

We have not generated any revenue from product sales. We do not know when, or if, we will generate any revenue from product sales. We do not expect to generate any revenue from product sales unless and until we obtain regulatory approval for and commercialize our product candidate. At the same time, we expect our expenses to increase in connection with our ongoing development and manufacturing activities, particularly as we continue the research, development, manufacture, and clinical trials of, and seeking regulatory approval for, our product candidate. In addition, subject to obtaining regulatory approval of our product candidate, we anticipate we may need additional funding in connection with our continuing operations.

As of June 30, 2026, we had cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments of approximately $173.0 million. Although we have sufficient capital to fund our planned activities, including those discussed in Note 9. Commitments – Manufacturing and Other Commitments and Contingencies, in the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report, we may need to raise additional capital to further fund the development of, and seek regulatory approvals for, our product candidate and to begin commercialization of any approved product.

The amount and timing of our future funding requirements will depend on many factors, including the pace and results of our clinical development efforts. Failure to raise capital as and when needed, on favorable terms or at all, would have a negative impact on our financial condition and our ability to develop our product candidate.

Although we believe we are well capitalized based on our current operations, until we can generate a sufficient amount of product revenue to finance our cash requirements, we may finance our future cash needs primarily through the issuance of additional equity securities and potentially through borrowings, grants, and strategic alliances with partner companies. If we are unable to raise additional funds through equity or debt financings when needed, we may be required to delay, limit, reduce, or terminate our product development or commercialization efforts or grant rights to develop and market our product candidate to third parties that we would otherwise prefer to develop and market ourselves.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Except as set forth in Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies – Recent Accounting Pronouncements of the condensed consolidated financial statements in this Quarterly Report, there have been no material changes in our critical accounting policies and use of estimates during the six months ended June 30, 2026 as compared to those disclosed in “Part II, Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.

Market Risk

We have market risk exposure related to our cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investment securities. Such interest-earning instruments carry a degree of interest rate risk; however, we have not been exposed, nor do we anticipate being exposed, to material risks due to changes in interest rates. A hypothetical 1% change in interest rates during any of the periods presented would not have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements. Additionally, our investment securities are fixed income instruments denominated and payable in U.S. dollars and have short-term maturities, typically less than twelve months, and typically carry credit ratings of “A” at a minimum by two of three Nationally Recognized Statistical Rating Organizations, specifically Moody’s, Standard & Poor’s, or Fitch. As such, we do not believe that our cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investment securities have significant risk of default or illiquidity.

Interest Rate Risk

We also have interest rate exposure related to our long-term debt. Refer to Note 6. Debt Facility of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q for additional discussion. The Hercules Loan Agreement, as amended, bears interest equal to the prime rate reported in The Wall Street Journal ("WSJ"), subject to a WSJ prime rate floor of 6.0%, plus 1.45%, which was 8.2% on June 30, 2026. Changes in the prime rate would have impacted our interest expense associated with our secured term loan. If a 10% change in interest rates from the interest rates on June 30, 2026, were to have occurred, this change would not have had a material effect on our interest expense with respect to outstanding borrowed amounts.

Foreign Currency Exchange Risk

We use the U.S. Dollar ("USD") as our functional and reporting currency, and therefore, are subject to the risk of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. The financial statements of the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiaries are recorded in their functional currency and translated into USD. Our foreign currency exchange rate risk is primarily related to translation of our assets and liabilities from our foreign subsidiaries' functional currencies to USD. The cumulative effect of changes in exchange rates between the foreign entity’s functional currency and the reporting currency is reported in Accumulated other comprehensive gain (loss) in the condensed consolidated balance sheet.

Additionally, we have vendors in Denmark, elsewhere in Europe, and the United Kingdom and pay those vendors in local currency, Danish Krone, Euros, or British Pound Sterling, respectively. Accordingly, our results of operations and cash flows are subject to fluctuations due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates, particularly changes in the Euro, British Pound Sterling and Danish Krone. Our expenses are generally denominated in the currencies of the jurisdictions in which we conduct our operations, which are primarily in the United States as well as the European Union and the United Kingdom. Our results of operations and cash flows may be adversely affected due to an expansion of non-U.S. dollar denominated contracts, growth of our international entities and operations and changes in foreign exchange rates or a weakening or strengthening of the USD against the Euro, British Pound Sterling and Danish Krone.

For the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, we recognized a loss on foreign currency transactions of $0.2 million and a gain on foreign currency transactions $0.8 million, respectively, recorded as a component of other comprehensive income (loss) in our condensed statements of operations. In general, the effect of a hypothetical 10% change in foreign currency exchange rates applicable to our business on June 30, 2026 would not have a material impact on our results of operations or financial condition. We are currently not engaged in any hedging strategies. As our international operations grow, we will continue to reassess our approach to manage the risk relating to fluctuations in currency rates.

Inflation Risk

Additionally, inflation generally affects us by increasing our cost of labor, supplies and clinical trial costs. We do not believe that inflation has had a material effect on our results of operations during the periods presented.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management has evaluated, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Operations and Financial Officer, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2026, pursuant to and as required by Rule 13a-15(b) under the Exchange Act. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Operations and Financial Officer have concluded that, as of June 30, 2026, our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined by Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act, were effective and designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act (i) is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms and (ii) information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Operations and Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the six months ended June 30, 2026 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

In addition to the other information set forth in this Quarterly Report, you should carefully consider the risk factors and other cautionary statements described under the heading “Item 1A. Risk Factors” included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, and the risk factors and other cautionary statements contained in our other filings with the SEC, which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, or future results. There have been no material changes in our risk factors from those described in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 or our other SEC filings.
