Positive Outlook
- Anticipates a $175 million milestone payment from Sanofi upon BLA approval for COVID-19 Vaccine Product in pre-filled syringe from U.S. FDA.

- Entered into an Amended Takeda CLA, improving financial terms, including a $20 million upfront payment and annual milestone payments plus royalties on net sales.
- Signed an additional Material Transfer Agreement (MTA) for Matrix-M® with a top-tier pharmaceutical company, expanding scope to viral pathogens and entering a preclinical collaboration for cancer vaccine candidate.
- Completed enrollment for Phase 3 trial of COVID-19-Influenza Combination and stand-alone seasonal influenza vaccine candidates, with initial cohort data expected by mid-2025.
Challenges Ahead
- Potential for further delays in U.S. FDA approval for prototype vaccine and NVX-CoV2601 due to information requests for post-marketing commitments.
- Risk of not receiving further information requests or agreement on proposed study design from U.S. FDA.
- Uncertainty regarding the ability to file a supplemental application for an updated strain in time for the upcoming 2025-2026 vaccination season.
