Pharvaris Reports Third Quarter 2024 Financial Results and Highlights Recent Business Updates
•Positive long-term extension data highlighting the differentiated profile of deucrictibant for the prevention and treatment of HAE attacks presented at recent medical congresses
•Intend to engage in clinical development of deucrictibant for the treatment of acquired angioedema due to C1-INH deficiency (AAE-C1INH)
•Initiation of CHAPTER-3 global pivotal Phase 3 clinical study of deucrictibant for the prophylactic treatment of HAE using once-daily extended-release tablet expected by YE2024
•Operating from a strong financial position with cash and cash equivalents of €305 million as of September 30, 2024
ZUG, Switzerland, November 13, 2024 -- Pharvaris (Nasdaq: PHVS), a late-stage biopharmaceutical company developing novel, oral bradykinin B2 receptor antagonists to prevent and treat hereditary angioedema (HAE) attacks, today announced financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2024, and highlighted recent business updates.
“Enrollment in our pivotal Phase 3 on-demand study, RAPIDe-3, progresses as planned, and we are preparing for the initiation of our pivotal Phase 3 prophylaxis study, CHAPTER-3, by year-end,” said Berndt Modig, Chief Executive Officer of Pharvaris. “Our recently presented positive long-term extension data from our CHAPTER-1 and RAPIDe-2 Phase 2 studies reinforces deucrictibant’s differentiated profile and its potential to provide people living with HAE the tools to confidently control their condition. Together with the data from our randomized clinical trials, we believe deucrictibant’s injectable-like efficacy, placebo-like tolerability, and oral convenience uniquely position it to address unmet need in both the prophylactic and on-demand HAE treatment settings. Our team is now focused on the successful execution of our Phase 3 HAE clinical studies.”
Recent Highlights and Clinical Study Updates
Development Pipeline
•Anticipated initiation of CHAPTER-3 (NCT06669754) by YE2024. CHAPTER-3 is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase 3 study of orally administered deucrictibant extended-release tablet for the prophylactic treatment of HAE attacks. The study aims to enroll approximately 81 adult and adolescent participants (12 years and older) with HAE and randomize them in a 2:1 ratio to receive deucrictibant extended-release tablet (40 mg/day) or placebo once daily for 24 weeks. The primary endpoint of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of deucrictibant compared to placebo for prophylaxis against angioedema attacks as measured by the time-normalized number of investigator-confirmed HAE attacks during the 24-week treatment period. Other objectives of the study include evaluating additional clinically relevant outcomes, deucrictibant’s safety and tolerability, pharmacokinetics and its impact on health-related quality of life measures in the prophylactic setting.
•Enrollment in RAPIDe-3 (NCT06343779) is progressing as planned. Advancement of RAPIDe-3, a global pivotal Phase 3 study of deucrictibant immediate-release capsule for the on-demand treatment of HAE attacks, is progressing as planned with a target enrollment of approximately 120 participants. The primary efficacy endpoint is time to onset of symptom relief, as measured by Patient Global Impression of Change (PGI-C) rating of at least “a little better” for two consecutive timepoints within 12 hours post-treatment. Other efficacy endpoints include time to End of Progression (EoP) in attack symptoms, substantial symptom relief, complete attack resolution and proportion of attacks achieving symptom resolution with one dose of deucrictibant as measured by Patient Global Impression of Severity (PGI-S) and by Angioedema Symptom Rating Scale (AMRA).
•Presentations at Bradykinin Symposium 2024, HAEi Global Angioedema Forum, and American College of Allergy, Asthma, & Immunology (ACAAI) Annual Meeting highlighted positive long-term extension data for deucrictibant for both prophylactic and on-demand treatment. Extension data confirm the observed safety and tolerability profile from Phase 2 randomized studies and further support the potential for deucrictibant to become a preferred therapy for the management of HAE. Long-term prophylaxis extension data of deucrictibant (CHAPTER-1 OLE) show attack reduction is maintained for over one year with open-label extension participants experienced a 93% reduction in attacks compared to baseline. Long-term on-demand extension data of deucrictibant immediate-release capsule (RAPIDe-2 OLE) show median onset of symptom relief in ~1.1 hours, with 85.8% of attacks resolving
completely within 24 hours. The full posters and presentation slides are available on the Investors section of the Pharvaris website at https://ir.pharvaris.com/news-events/publications.
•Announced plans to expand clinical development of deucrictibant into acquired angioedema due to C1-INH deficiency (AAE-C1INH) following publication of compelling data from an investigator-initiated trial. Data in the July 2024 publication of the Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology explored the potential for deucrictibant to address the unmet medical need for effective and well-tolerated therapies for the prophylactic and on-demand treatment of AAE-C1INH. Currently, there are no approved therapies to address AAE-C1INH. A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study was conducted by Investigators at the Amsterdam University Medical Center (Amsterdam UMC). Three persons living with AAE-C1INH were enrolled; the individual mean monthly attack rates were 2.0, 0.6, and 1.0 during the placebo period and 0.0 across all participants during treatment with deucrictibant. There were no severe adverse events and one self-limiting treatment-emergent adverse event (abdominal pain).

Overview
Pharvaris is a late-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on the development and commercialization of innovative therapies for rare diseases with significant unmet need, initially focused on bradykinin-mediated angioedema and other bradykinin-mediated diseases. Our first molecule, deucrictibant (PHA121, PHA-022121), is a novel, small-molecule bradykinin B2 receptor antagonist for the treatment of hereditary angioedema (“HAE”) attacks. Bradykinin B2 receptor inhibition is a clinically validated mechanism for the treatment of HAE, as demonstrated by icatibant, which is a bradykinin B2 receptor antagonist approved in Europe in 2008 and in the United States in 2011 (branded as FIRAZYR). Deucrictibant demonstrated over 4000-fold selectivity for the bradykinin B2 receptor when compared to approximately 170 other molecular targets, including the bradykinin B1 receptor.
Currently approved HAE therapies are limited by burdensome routes of administration (injection or infusion), variable efficacy, or side effects. We believe deucrictibant has the potential to provide an efficacious, well-tolerated, and easy-to-administer option for both prophylactic and on-demand treatments of HAE attacks in the form of (i) an extended-release tablet, to provide protection from attacks in a single daily dose, and (ii) an immediate-release capsule, to enable rapid achievement of therapeutic exposure. We believe deucrictibant may address a broader range of bradykinin-mediated angioedema types than plasma kallikrein inhibitors. This expectation is based on our understanding that deucrictibant, as a bradykinin B2 receptor antagonist, will block all pathways that involve bradykinin-mediated activation of the bradykinin B2 receptor, and subsequent bradykinin-mediated angioedema. In contrast, plasma kallikrein inhibitors only target plasma kallikrein-mediated bradykinin generation. Therefore, by blocking the action of bradykinin at the bradykinin B2 receptor, we have the potential to prevent its aberrant signaling regardless of the pathway that generates bradykinin.
In our completed Phase 1 trials to date, we have observed that deucrictibant was orally bioavailable and well-tolerated at all doses studied, with approximately dose-proportional exposure. We also have successfully demonstrated proof-of-concept through a clinical pharmacodynamics ("PD") assessment with the bradykinin challenge, which had been utilized as a validated surrogate assessment for dose selection in the icatibant development program.
We plan to efficiently progress deucrictibant through clinical development for prophylactic and on-demand use with our prophylactic extended-release product candidate and on-demand immediate-release product candidate, respectively.
We have demonstrated clinical efficacy and tolerability in a Phase 2 study (RAPIDe-1) treating attacks of HAE. The data allowed us to compare the projected therapeutic performance of deucrictibant with that of icatibant. However, we have not conducted a head-to-head comparison of icatibant to deucrictibant in a clinical study. We commenced our RAPIDe-1 Phase 2 clinical trial of deucrictibant in February 2021 and reported topline Phase 2 data for the on-demand treatment of attacks in people with HAE in December 2022. In March, 2024, we initiated a pivotal Phase 3 clinical study of deucrictibant immediate-release capsules (20 mg) and placebo to evaluate the efficacy and safety of deucrictibant in the on-demand treatment of HAE attacks for people (12 years and older) living with HAE.
We have also demonstrated clinical efficacy and tolerability in a Phase 2 study (CHAPTER-1) for prophylactic treatment of HAE attacks. We commenced this CHAPTER-1 Phase 2 clinical trial in 2021 using twice-daily dosing of the deucrictibant immediate-release capsules as a proof-of-concept and announced positive topline data in December 2023. Our primary objective with this trial was to assess the efficacy and safety profile of deucrictibant for prophylactic treatment in people living with HAE. In the CHAPTER-1 Phase 2 study, deucrictibant was well-tolerated and significantly reduced the monthly attack rate, the occurrence of moderate and severe attacks and the number of attacks treated with on-demand medications. In February 2022, we reported Phase 1 clinical data of deucrictibant demonstrating pharmacokinetics of the extended-release formulation and in healthy volunteers, showing a single dose of deucrictibant was well tolerated with an extended-release profile supporting once-daily dosing.
Recently, we sought feedback and reached alignment on key elements of a proposed Phase 3 pivotal prophylactic study (the “Phase 3 Clinical Program”) of deucrictibant during End-of-Phase 2 meetings with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the European Union Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP), and the Japanese Pharmaceuticals and Medical Devices Agency (PMDA). CHAPTER-3 is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase 3 study of orally administered deucrictibant extended-release tablets for the prophylactic treatment of HAE. The study aims to enroll 81 adult and adolescent participants (over 12 years old) with HAE and randomize them in a 2:1 ratio to receive deucrictibant (40 mg/day) or placebo daily for 24 weeks. The primary endpoint of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of deucrictibant compared to placebo for prophylaxis against angioedema attacks as measured by the time-normalized number of investigator-confirmed HAE attacks during the 24-week treatment period. Other objectives of the study include evaluating the safety and tolerability, the pharmacokinetics, and the impact on health-related quality of life of deucrictibant in a prophylactic setting. In addition, we also plan to run an open-label extension study in the prophylactic setting with both rollover and non-rollover subjects to collect long-term safety data.
A wide variety of events beyond our control, including natural or man-made disasters, power shortages, fires, extreme weather conditions, pandemics, epidemics or outbreaks of infectious diseases, political instability or other events could disrupt our business or operations or those of our development partners, manufacturers, regulators or other third parties with whom we conduct business now or in the future. These events may cause businesses and government agencies to be shut down, supply chains to be interrupted, slowed, or rendered inoperable, and individuals to become ill, quarantined, or otherwise unable to work and/or travel due to health reasons or governmental restrictions.
In addition, unforeseen global events, such as the armed conflict between Russia and Ukraine and the Hamas attack against Israel and the ensuing war, could adversely impact our business and operations. The invasion of Ukraine and the Hamas attack against Israel and the retaliatory measures that have been taken, or could be taken in the future, by the United States, the NATO alliance, and other countries have created global security concerns that could result in regional conflicts and also adversely affect our ability to conduct ongoing and future clinical trials of our product candidates. For example, our studies include a significant number of patients in Germany, Poland and Bulgaria, and one patient in Israel. A further escalation of the conflict in Ukraine and the Middle-East may potentially impact our ability to complete our ongoing and planned clinical trials in these countries on a timely basis, or at all. Clinical trials in these countries could be suspended or terminated, and we may be prevented from obtaining data on patients already enrolled at affected sites. Our ability to conduct clinical trials in these regions may also become restricted under applicable sanctions laws, which may require us to identify alternative trial sites. Any of the foregoing could impede the execution of our clinical development plans, which could materially harm our business.
In August 2022, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) placed a hold on the clinical trials of deucrictibant in the U.S. based on its review of nonclinical data. The FDA requested that we conduct an additional long-term rodent toxicology study and update the Investigator’s Brochure. We participated in a Type A meeting with the FDA to discuss paths to address the on-demand and prophylactic holds and aligned on a protocol for a 26-week rodent toxicology study. Following review of data from a preplanned interim analysis of the ongoing 26-week nonclinical rodent study, the FDA lifted the clinical hold on the IND application for deucrictibant for the on-demand treatment of HAE in June 2023. In January 2024, the FDA lifted the clinical hold on the IND application for deucrictibant for the prophylactic treatment of HAE attacks following review of the full data set from the completed 26-week rodent toxicology study.
Additional trials may be required by the FDA, EMA or other regulators even with positive data from RAPIDe-1 and CHAPTER-1.
Financial Operations Overview
Revenues
We did not record any revenues during the period covered by the historical financial information included in this Report. We do not expect to recognize any revenues before we are able to commercialize our first product.
Research and development expenses
We are focused on the clinical development of deucrictibant. Since our inception, we have devoted substantially all of our resources to research and development efforts relating to the development of deucrictibant and our product candidates deucrictibant extended-release tablets and deucrictibant immediate-release capsules We expect that we will continue to incur significant research and development expenses as we seek to complete the clinical development of, and achieve regulatory approval for, our product candidates, and in connection with discovery and development of any additional product candidates.
Research and development expenses consist of the following:
•employee benefits expenses, which includes salaries, pensions, share-based compensation expenses, bonus plans and other related costs for research and development staff;
•nonclinical expenses, which include costs of conducting and managing our outsourced discovery and nonclinical development studies;
•clinical expenses, which includes costs of conducting and managing our sponsored clinical trials, including clinical investigator cost, costs of clinical sites, and costs for Contract Research Organizations ("CROs") assisting with our clinical development programs;
•manufacturing expenses, which include costs related to manufacturing of active pharmaceutical ingredients and manufacturing of the products used in our clinical trials and research and development activities;
•costs related to regulatory activities, including collecting data, preparing and submitting filings, communicating with regulatory authorities and reviewing the design and conduct of clinical trials for compliance with applicable requirements;
•costs in connection with investigator-sponsored clinical trials, evaluations and collaborative studies;
•advisers’ fees, including discovery, nonclinical, clinical, chemistry, manufacturing, and controls-related and other consulting services;
•intellectual property costs, which includes costs associated with obtaining and maintaining patents and other intellectual property; and
We expect that our total research and development expenses will continue to increase in 2024 as we continue to focus on the development of our deucrictibant product candidates, as well as explore potential expansion programs.
There is a risk that any clinical development or product discovery program may not result in commercial approval. To the extent that we fail to obtain approval to commercialize our product candidate in a timely manner, we would need to continue to conduct nonclinical studies or clinical trials over a longer period of time, and we anticipate that our research and development expenses may further increase.
Clinical development timelines and associated costs may vary significantly and the successful development of our product candidate is highly uncertain. At this time, we cannot reasonably estimate the nature, timing and estimated costs of the efforts, including patient recruitment and selection that will be necessary to complete the development of, or the period, if any, in which material net cash inflows may commence from, our product candidates.
Moreover, we cannot assure that we will be able to successfully develop or commercialize our product candidates, if approved for marketing. This is due to numerous risks and uncertainties associated with developing drugs. See “Item 3. Key Information—D. Risk factors” in our Annual Report and under “Risk factors” in any other periodic filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission for a discussion of these risks and uncertainties.
Selling and distribution expenses
Historically, we have not incurred any selling and distribution expenses. If our product candidates are approved for registration and marketing, we anticipate incurring substantial selling and distribution expenses in future periods in order to establish an infrastructure for marketing and distribution. In addition, we anticipate incurring substantial expenses for the manufacturing of commercial quantities of active pharmaceutical ingredients and drug products.
General and administrative expenses
We anticipate that we will continue to incur significant general and administrative expenses as we advance our research and development portfolio. General and administrative expenses consist of the following:
•employee benefits, including salaries, pensions, share-based compensation expenses, bonus plans and other related costs for staff and independent contractors in executive and operational functions;
•independent auditors’ and advisers’ fees, including accounting, tax, legal and other consulting services;
•rental expenses, insurance, facilities and IT expenses and other general expenses relating to our operations; and
•expenses related to the build-out of our commercial organization, including assessments of the HAE market landscape, pricing research and congress attendance.
We anticipate that the continuing development of our business and the expense of maintaining directors’ and officer’s liability insurance, will contribute to future increase in general and administrative expenses. We also expect that general and administrative expenses will increase in the future as we continue to incur additional costs associated with being a public company in the United States.
Share-based compensation expenses
In 2016, we implemented an Equity Incentive Plan ("the Plan"), in order to advance the interests of our shareholders by enhancing our ability to attract, retain and motivate persons who are expected to make important contributions to us and by providing such persons with performance-based incentives that are intended to better align the interests of such persons with those of our shareholders. In order to incentivize our directors and employees, our Board adopted the Pharvaris N.V. 2021 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2021 Plan”) for employees, consultants and directors prior to the completion of our initial public offering (“IPO”). The 2021 Plan became effective upon our conversion from Pharvaris B.V. into Pharvaris N.V., which occurred prior to the consummation of our IPO. The 2021 Plan provides for the grant of options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, RSUs, performance stock awards, other stock-based awards, performance cash awards and substitute awards. The fair values of these instruments are recognized as personnel expenses in either research and development expenses or general and administrative expenses.

Research and development expenses increased from €18.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023 to €25.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024. The increase in the research and development expenses is primarily due to increased clinical expenses and increased personnel related costs, which is offset by a decrease in nonclinical expenses.
For the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, clinical expenses were €15.4 million and €8.9 million, respectively. The increase in clinical expenses is primarily due to higher expenses on the prophylaxis and on-demand Phase 3 Clinical Program.
For the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, personnel expenses were €7.4 million and €4.8 million, respectively. The increase is primarily due to the increased headcount to support the increased clinical and regulatory activities and yearly merit pay adjustments. Personnel expenses in this period in 2024 also included an amount of €2.3 million of share-based compensation versus €1.4 million in the prior-year period.
For the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, nonclinical expenses were €0.3 million and €2.3 million, respectively. The decrease is primarily due to exploratory work and studies to lift the clinical hold.

General and administrative expenses increased from €7.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023 to €12.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024. The increase in general and administrative expenses was primarily due to increased personnel expenses and an increase in other expenses.
For the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, personnel expenses were €5.3 million and €3.5 million, respectively. The increase is primarily due to an increase in share-based compensation expense from €1.5 million in the prior-year quarter to €2.8 million in the current-year quarter. The share-based compensation expense increase is the result of additional hiring during the current quarter and a grant to an existing member of key management.
For the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, other expenses were €1.4 million and €0.5 million respectively. The increase is primarily due to increased commercial and market access outside activities related to product launch preparation.
Finance income - net / (expense)
Finance expense for the three months ended September 30, 2024 was €3.6 million, compared to finance income of €2.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The amounts primarily relate to unrealized foreign exchange losses of €5.5 million offset by interest income of €2.0 million for 2024, compared to unrealized foreign exchange income of €2.7 million and interest income of €0.1 million for 2023. The unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses primarily result from translating the Company’s bank balances held in USD to EUR, which is the functional currency of the Company.
Income taxes
Income taxes are accounted for in accordance with IAS 34. The interim period is considered part of a larger financial year, where the income tax is recognized in each interim period based on the best estimate of the weighted average annual income tax rate expected for the full financial year. The estimated tax expenses are determined based on a full-year basis and subsequently allocated using the expected full-year effective tax rate. The one-off
items are recognized in full in the interim period in which they emerge. In the total interim tax charge, no distinction is made between current and deferred tax expenses/income.
The tax expense over the three months ended September 30, 2024 relates to the Company's U.S. and Dutch fiscal unity.
Comparison of the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023.

General and administrative expenses increased from €22.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, to €33.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The increase in general and administrative expenses was primarily due to increased personnel expenses, professional fees, accounting, tax and auditing fees and other expenses.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, personnel expenses were €13.0 million and €10.3 million, respectively. The increase is primarily due to an increase in share-based compensation expense from €4.3 million in the prior-year quarter to €6.2 million in the current-year quarter. The share-based compensation expense increase is the result of additional hiring during the current quarter and a grant to an existing member of key management.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, professional expenses were €5.6 million and €3.5 million, respectively. The increase is primarily due to increased legal fees associated with corporate and regulatory disclosures and governance, and commercial and market access consulting activities related to launch preparation.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, accounting, tax and auditing fees were €3.0 million and €1.2 million, respectively. The increase is primarily due to taxation advisory services, SOX implementation and contractor expenses to support the accounting function.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, other expenses were €4.4 million and €1.8 million, respectively. The increase is primarily due to increased commercial and market access outside activities related to product launch preparation.
Finance income
Finance income for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 was €1.7 million and €1.9 million, respectively. The amounts primarily relate to unrealized foreign exchange losses of €2.4 million offset by interest income of €4.2 million for 2024, compared to unrealized foreign exchange income of €1.8 million and interest income of €0.2 million for 2023. The unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses primarily result from translating the Company’s bank balances held in USD to EUR, which is the functional currency of the Company.

The interim period is considered part of a larger financial year, where the income tax is recognized in each interim period based on the best estimate of the weighted average annual income tax rate expected for the full financial year.

The one-off items are recognized in full in the interim period in which they emerge. In the total interim tax charge, no distinction is made between current and deferred tax expenses/income.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Since inception, we have incurred significant operating losses. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, we incurred losses of €99.5 million and €68.1 million, respectively. Since inception, we have not generated any revenues or net cash flows from sales. We will not receive any revenues or net cash flows from sales until we successfully develop a product candidate, obtain regulatory approval and successfully commercialize it. There is no assurance that we will be able to do so.
On September 30, 2024, the Company’s authorized share capital amounted to €14.1 million divided into 117,500,000 ordinary shares each with a nominal value of twelve eurocents (€0.12).
As of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the total number of issued and fully paid shares was 54,233,105 and 52,290,212, respectively. As of September 30, 2024 the issued share capital totaled €6.5 million (September 30, 2023: €4.9 million). On December 31, 2023, the issued share capital totaled €6.3 million.
In March 2022, the Company filed a Form F-3 Registration Statement and prospectus with the Securities and Exchange Commission, allowing the Company to sell up to $350 million of its securities. This Registration Statement was supplemented by a prospectus supplement covering an at-the-market program providing for the sales from time to time of up to $75 million of its ordinary shares pursuant to a Sales Agreement with Leerink Partners.
To date, we have relied solely on the issuance of equity securities to finance our operations and internal growth. On March 1, 2022, we entered into a sales agreement (the "2022 Sales Agreement") with Leerink Partners (formerly known as SVB Securities LLC), pursuant to which we may sell ordinary shares having an aggregate offering price of up to $75 million from time to time through Leerink Partners. On April 12, 2024, we terminated the 2022 Sales Agreement and entered into a new sales agreement with Leerink Partners, pursuant to which we may sell ordinary shares having an aggregate offering price of up to $175 million from time to time through Leerink Partners (the “2024 Sales Agreement”). In April 2024, we filed a Form F-3 ASR Registration Statement (the “F-3 ASR”) and prospectus with the Securities and Exchange Commission, allowing us to sell an unspecified amount of its securities. The F-3 ASR was supplemented by a prospectus supplement covering an at-the-market program providing for the sales from time to time of up to $175 million of its ordinary shares pursuant to the April 2024 Sales Agreement. As of September 30, 2024, the Company has not sold any securities under the April 2024 Sales Agreement.
As of September 30, 2024, we have sold a total of 593,927 ordinary shares under the 2022 Sales Agreement and the April 2024 Sales Agreement generating total net proceeds of $9.8 million (€9.3 million), after deducting $0.3 million (€0.3 million), which was payable to Leerink Partners as commission in respect of such sales.
In June 2023, we sold a total of 6,951,340 ordinary shares, par value €0.12 per share, in a private placement at a purchase price of $10.07 per ordinary share. The sale generated total proceeds of approximately $70 million (€64.2 million).
During December 2023, we entered into an underwriting agreement with Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC and Leerink Partners as underwriters, pursuant to which we agreed to issue and sell (i) 11,125,000 ordinary shares, par value €0.12 per share and (ii) pre-funded warrants to purchase up to 1,375,000 ordinary shares in an underwritten offering. The offering closed on December 8, 2023, and we generated net proceeds of $282.0 million (€261.6 million), after deducting bank fees of $18.0 million (€16.7 million). The pre-funded warrants were exercised in January 2024 for gross exercise proceeds of $0.01 million and resulted issuance of 1,375,000 ordinary shares.
In March 2024, the Company received a partial reimbursement for certain of its expenses in connection with the
December 2023 offering which have been accounted for in the share premium.
As of September 30, 2024 we held cash and cash equivalents of €305.2 million. Of the cash on hand, €0.07 million relates to guarantees. We do not expect positive operating cash flows in the foreseeable future and remain dependent on additional financing to fund our research and development expenses, general and administrative expenses and financing costs. We believe that the available cash balances are sufficient to execute our operating plan and strategies and to meet the anticipated working capital requirements and settle all expected liabilities for at least twelve months from the issuance date of the consolidated statements of loss and comprehensive loss. Accordingly, the consolidated statements of loss and comprehensive loss have been prepared on a going concern basis.
Our future viability is dependent on our ability to raise additional capital to finance operations. We will need to finance our operations through public or private securities offerings, debt financings or other sources, which may include licensing, collaborations or other strategic transactions or arrangements. Although we have been successful in raising capital in the past, there is no assurance that we will be successful in obtaining such additional financing on terms acceptable to us, if at all. If we are unable to obtain funding, we could be forced to delay, reduce, or eliminate some or all of our research and development programs for product candidates, product portfolio expansion or commercialization efforts, which could adversely affect our business prospects, or we may be unable to continue operations.
Our contractual obligations and commitments as of September 30, 2024 amounted to €85.5 million, primarily related to research and development contracts.

Operating activities
Net cash flows used in operating activities reflects our results for the period adjusted for, among other things, depreciation, unrealized foreign exchange results, share-based compensation arrangements, changes in working capital and accruals.
Net cash used in operating activities was €85.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, an increase of €15.9 million compared to €69.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. Operating cash is adjusted for non-cash items such as the increase in share-based compensation of €1.4 million and a change in net foreign exchange (gains) losses of (€4.8) million. Working capital decreased by €87.3 million, in part due to the change of current assets by €85.6 million, a change in trade payables of €1.3 million and increased accrued liabilities of €1.0 million.
Financing activities
Net cash flows provided by financing activities decreased by €61.6 million from €63.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, to €2.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The decrease is primarily due to €1.7 million financing proceeds in 2024 as compared to €64.2 million from financing proceeds in 2023.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of September 30, 2024, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements other than the disclosed commitments.
Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, there were no significant changes to our quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk from those reported in “Item 11. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” in the Annual Report.
Critical Accounting Estimates and Judgments
There have been no material changes to the significant accounting policies and estimates described in Note 2.19 to our consolidated financial statements in the Annual Report.
Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
Certain statements in this management’s discussion and analysis are or may be forward-looking statements with respect to us, our industry and our business that involve substantial risks and uncertainties. All statements other than
statements of historical fact contained in this management’s discussion and analysis, including statements regarding our future financial condition, results of operations and/or business achievements, including, without limitation, statements containing the words “believe,” “anticipate,” “expect,” “estimate,” “may,” “could,” “should,” “would,” “will,” “intend” and similar expressions are forward-looking statements. We have based these forward-looking statements largely on our current expectations and projections about future events and trends that we believe may affect our financial condition, results of operations, business strategy and financial needs. Such forward-looking statements involve unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause our actual results, financial condition, performance or achievements, or industry results, to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements.
Factors that might cause such a difference include, but are not limited to:
•uncertainty in the outcome of our interactions with regulatory authorities, including the FDA, with respect to clinical trials in the U.S. and our ability to resolve any issues to the satisfaction of the FDA or any regulatory agency in a timely manner;
•the expected timing, progress, or success of our clinical development programs, especially for deucrictibant extended-release tablets and immediate-release capsules, which are in late-stage global clinical trials;
•our ability to replicate the efficacy and safety demonstrated in the RAPIDe-1 and CHAPTER-1 Phase 2 study in ongoing and future nonclinical studies and clinical trials;
•risks arising from epidemic diseases, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, which may adversely impact our business, nonclinical studies and clinical trials, the outcome and timing of regulatory approvals and the value of our ordinary shares;
•the timing, costs and other limitations involved in obtaining regulatory approval for our deucrictibant product candidates or any other product candidate that we may develop in the future;
•our ability to market, commercialize and achieve market acceptance for our deucrictibant product candidates or any of our other product candidates that we may develop in the future, if approved;
•our ability to produce sufficient amounts of drug product candidates for the commercialization;
•our ability to establish commercial capabilities or enter into agreements with third parties to market, sell and distribute our product candidates;
•our dependence on third parties to perform critical activities related to the research, nonclinical safety and toxicology studies, development and manufacturing of our product candidates;
•disruptions at the FDA and other government agencies;
•the expense, time and uncertainty involved in the development and consistent manufacturing and supply of our product candidates, some or all of which may never reach the regulatory approval stage;
•our ability to raise capital when needed and on acceptable terms;
•our ability to enter into any new licensing agreements or to maintain any licensing agreements with respect to our product candidates;
•our reliance on collaboration partners and licensees, whose actions we cannot control;
•the willingness of private insurers and other payors to provide reimbursement for our products;
•regulatory developments in the United States, the European Union and other jurisdictions;
•the outcome and timing of price negotiations with governmental authorities;
•our ability to compete in the pharmaceutical industry, including with respect to existing therapies, emerging potentially competitive therapies and with competitive generic products;
•our ability to protect our intellectual property and know-how and operate our business without infringing the intellectual property rights or regulatory exclusivity of others;
•side effects or adverse events associated with the use of our product candidates;
•our ability to defend against costly and damaging liability claims resulting from the testing of our product candidates in the clinic or, if, approved, any commercial sales;
•the loss of any of our key personnel;
•our estimates of market sizes and anticipated uses of our product candidates;
•our estimates of future performance;
•our estimates regarding anticipated operating losses, future revenues, expenses, capital requirements and our needs for additional financing;
•our ability to comply with existing or future laws and regulations in a cost-efficient manner;
•our ability to manage negative consequences from changes in applicable laws and regulations, including tax laws and the Biosecure Act;
•our ability to successfully remediate the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting and to maintain an effective system of internal control over financial reporting;
•our expectations regarding the time during which we will be an emerging growth company under the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act or a foreign private issuer; and
•changes and uncertainty in general market, political and economic conditions, including as a result of inflation and the current conflict between Russia and Ukraine and the Hamas attack against Israel and the ensuing war, or natural disasters and weather-related events, including earthquakes, typhoons, floods and fires.
You should refer to “ITEM 3. Key information—D. Risk factors.” section of our Annual Report and under “Risk factors” in any other periodic filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission for a discussion of important factors that may cause our actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by our forward-looking statements. As a result of these factors, we cannot assure you that the forward-looking statements in this management’s discussion and analysis will prove to be accurate. Furthermore, if our forward-looking statements prove to be inaccurate, the inaccuracy may be material.
In light of the significant uncertainties in these forward-looking statements, you should not regard these statements as a representation or warranty by us or any other person that we will achieve our objectives and plans in any specified time frame or at all.
We undertake no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.
In addition, statements that “we believe” and other similar statements reflect our belief and opinions on the relevant subject. These statements are based upon information available to us as of the date of this management’s discussion and analysis, and while we believe such information forms a reasonable basis for such statements, such information may be limited or incomplete, and our statements should not be read to indicate that we have conducted an exhaustive inquiry into, or review of, all potentially available relevant information. These statements are inherently uncertain and investors are cautioned not to unduly rely upon these statements.

2. Summary of significant accounting policies
2.1 Basis of preparation
The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and should be read in conjunction with the Group’s annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023 (“last annual financial statements”). These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements do not include all the information required for a complete set of financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS as issued by the IASB.
However, selected explanatory notes are included to explain events and transactions that are significant to an understanding of the changes in the Group’s financial position and performance since the last annual financial statements.
The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis. Unless otherwise stated, the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements are presented in euros and all values are rounded to the nearest EUR (€), except per share amounts.
2.2 Going concern
Management assessed the Company’s ability to fund its operations for a period of at least one year after the date the financial statements are issued. Management has not identified a material uncertainty relating to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least a year from the issuance of these financial statements. The financial statements of the Company have been prepared on the basis of the going concern assumption based on its existing funding, taking into account the Company’s current cash position and the projected cash flows based on the activities under execution on the basis of Pharvaris’ business plan and budget.
2.3 Use of judgements and estimates
In preparing these unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements, management has made judgements and estimates that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expense. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The significant judgements made by management in applying the Group’s accounting policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those described in the last annual financial statements.
2.4 Change in material accounting policies
The accounting policies applied in these unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements are the same as those applied in the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023.
New standards and interpretations issued not yet effective
In April 2024, the IASB issued IFRS 18 Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements (“IFRS 18”) which replaces IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements. IFRS 18 requires an entity to classify all income and expenses within its statement of profit or loss into one of five categories: operating; investing; financing; income taxes; and discontinued operations. The first three categories are new. These categories are complemented by the requirement to present subtotals and totals for “operating profit or loss”, “profit or loss before financing income and taxes” and “profit or loss”. IFRS 18, and the amendments to the other standards, is effective for reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2027, but earlier application is permitted. The Group is currently evaluating the impact of this amendment.
There are no other IFRS or IFRIC interpretations that are not yet effective and that are expected to have a material impact to the interim consolidated financial statements.

7. Income taxes
Income taxes are accounted for in line with IAS 34. The interim period is considered part of a larger financial year, where the income tax is recognized in each interim period based on the best estimate of the weighted average annual income tax rate expected for the full financial year. The estimated tax expenses are determined based on a full-year basis (P&L) and subsequently allocated using the expected full year effective tax rate. The discrete items are recognized in full in the interim period in which they emerge. In the total interim tax charge, no distinction is made between current and deferred tax expenses/ income.

Income tax expense is recognized based on management’s estimate of the weighted average effective annual income tax rate expected for the full financial year, bearing in mind the impact of non-discrete and discrete items. Non discrete items in the income tax expense are recognized based on management’s estimate of the weighted average effective annual income tax rate expected for the full financial year. Discrete items in the income tax expense are recognized at the applicable statutory tax rate.
The (estimated) average annual tax rate used for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 was (0.6%), compared to (0.5%) for the nine months ended September 30, 2023.
The current period losses for which no deferred tax asset has been recognized mainly consists of the unrecognized tax effect of losses incurred in Switzerland. The differences in the overseas tax rates are due to the lower tax rate in Switzerland compared to the statutory income tax rate in the Netherlands.
Pharvaris N.V. is the head of the fiscal unity including Pharvaris Netherlands B.V. and Pharvaris Holdings B.V.
Deferred tax
Deferred taxes have been recognized to the extent that management concludes that there is sufficient probability as per IAS 12 that there will be future taxable profits available in the foreseeable future against which the unused tax losses and deductible temporary differences can be utilized.
Deferred tax assets relating to losses carried forward have not been recognized, and deferred tax assets on deductible temporary differences in excess of deferred tax liabilities on taxable temporary differences have not been recognized in the consolidated statement of profit and loss and other comprehensive income for the Dutch fiscal unity.

All of the Company’s potential dilutive securities have been excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share attributable to ordinary stockholders as the effect of including them would be antidilutive.
