New major risk - Revenue and earnings growth Earnings are forecast to decline by an average of 26% per year for the foreseeable future. This is considered a major risk. Ultimately, shareholders want to see a good return on their investment and that generally comes from sharing in the company's profits. If profits are expected to decline, then in most cases the share price will decline over time as well. In addition, if the company pays dividends it will also likely need to reduce or cut them, striking a dual blow to total shareholder returns. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Earnings are forecast to decline by an average of 26% per year for the foreseeable future. Revenue is less than US$1m (kr848k revenue, or US$83k). Market cap is less than US$10m (kr46.2m market cap, or US$4.50m). Minor Risks Currently unprofitable and not forecast to become profitable over next 2 years (kr220m net loss in 2 years).

New major risk - Market cap size The company's market capitalization is less than US$10m. Market cap: kr74.9m (US$6.73m) This is considered a major risk. Companies with a small market capitalization are most likely businesses that have not yet released a product to market or are simply a very small company without a wide reach. Either way, risk is elevated with these companies because there is a chance the product may not come to fruition or the company's addressable market or demand may not be as large as expected. In addition, if the company's size is the main factor, it is less likely to have many investors and analysts following it and scrutinizing its performance and outlook. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Less than 1 year of cash runway based on free cash flow trend (-kr139m free cash flow). Share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months (26% average weekly change). Earnings are forecast to decline by an average of 24% per year for the foreseeable future. Shareholders have been substantially diluted in the past year (45% increase in shares outstanding). Revenue is less than US$1m (kr521k revenue, or US$47k).

BerGenBio ASA Announces Discinuation of 1L STK11M NSCLC Study and Exploration of Strategic Alternatives BerGenBio ASA announced its decision to close its BGBC016 study of bemcentinib in combination with standard of care therapy in first line (1L) non-squamous Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) patients with a mutation in the STK11 gene (STK11m). In 2024, the company announced the completion of enrollment in the Ph1b portion of the study which demonstrated acceptable safety in 1L NSCLC patients regardless of STK11 mutational status, as evaluated by an independent Data Safety Monitoring Board (DSMB). Early encouraging data were seen in three STK11m patients, including one patient who experienced a complete response and who remains in response and on treatment after nearly two years. The company, in agreement with the independent DSMB, determined that these initial results warranted the continuation of the study into the Ph2a portion. In March 2024, the company initiated the Ph2a portion of the study designed to recruit 40 evaluable 1L STK11m NSCLC patients. The primary endpoint for the Ph2a was overall response rate (ORR). To determine the feasibility of obtaining near-term funding, the company performed a preliminary analysis of the responses in the 10 efficacy evaluable STK11m patients. While there was 1 response in the Ph1b the company did not observe additional responses in the Ph2a patients. Consequently, the company has decided to discontinue the BGBC016 study. The Board of Directors has now initiated an exploration of strategic alternatives. As part of this process, the board will consider a range of options for the company including, among other things, a potential sale, merger, or other strategic transaction. There can be no assurance that this exploration process will result in any transaction. New Risk • Jan 16
New major risk - Shareholder dilution The company's shareholders have been substantially diluted in the past year. Increase in shares outstanding: 45% This is considered a major risk. Shareholder dilution occurs when there is an increase in the number of shares on issue that is not proportionally distributed between all shareholders. Often due to the company raising equity capital or some options being converted into stock. All else being equal, if there are more shares outstanding then each existing share will be entitled to a lower proportion of the company's total earnings, thus reducing earnings per share (EPS). While dilution might not always result in lower EPS (like if the company is using the capital to fund an EPS accretive acquisition) in a lot cases it does, along with lower dividends per share and less voting power at shareholder meetings. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Less than 1 year of cash runway based on free cash flow trend (-kr139m free cash flow). Share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months (20% average weekly change). Earnings are forecast to decline by an average of 24% per year for the foreseeable future.

Bergenbio Asa Announces First Patient Enters into Advanced Adenocarcinoma Lung Cancer Trial BerGenBio ASA announced that the first patient has been included in a clinical trial sponsored by the Mays Cancer Center at The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio (UT Health San Antonio). The study is led by Josephine A. Taverna, MD, a thoracic oncologist at the Mays Cancer Center and Associate Professor in the Division of Hematology and Oncology at UT Health San Antonio. The trial is designed to study BerGenBio's bemcentinib in combination with pacritinib, which is a JAK2 inhibitor indicated for treatment of the bone marrow disorder myelofibrosis in patients with platelet counts below 50 x 109/L. It works by blocking certain growth factors and cytokines. Pacritinib is marketed in the United States as VONJO and owned by Swedish Orphan Biovitrum AB (Sobi), a specialized international biopharmaceutical company. Bemcentinib is a first-in-class, selective, oral once-a-day inhibitor of AXL receptor tyrosine kinase, a promising therapeutic target for serious diseases. The study will include patients with lung adenocarcinoma, the most common type of lung cancer in the United States, accounting for approximately 40% of all lung cancers. The study is funded by a grant from the National Cancer Institute (NCI) of the National Institutes of Health (NIH). Ankündigung • Dec 16

New major risk - Share price stability The company's share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months. It is more volatile than 90% of Norwegian stocks, typically moving 15% a week. This is considered a major risk. Share price volatility increases the risk of potential losses in the short-term as the stock tends to have larger drops in price more frequently than other stocks. It may also indicate the stock is highly sensitive to market conditions or economic conditions rather than being sensitive to its own business performance, which may also be inconsistent. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Less than 1 year of cash runway based on free cash flow trend (-kr139m free cash flow).

BerGenBio ASA Announces Safety Data from Dose Escalation Phase 1b in First Line NSCLC Patients BerGenBio ASA announced preliminary safety data from the Phase 1b portion of the BGBC016 study in first-line (1L) Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) patients. The Phase 1b part of the study evaluated three escalating doses of BerGenBio's selective AXL inhibitor bemcentinib in combination with standard chemo-immunotherapy (CIT), doublet chemotherapy and pembrolizumab, Keytruda, for the 1L treatment of advanced/metastatic NSCLC patients. The primary endpoint was the assessment of the safety profile of the combination in NSCLC patients regardless of their STK11 mutational status. Key conclusions include: All three selected doses demonstrated that the triplet combination is well tolerated with no new safety signals identified, supporting the further clinical development of bemcentinib and CIT in 1L NSCLC patients. No dose-related impact on electrocardiographic changes (QTc), a known class effect of tyrosine kinase inhibitors, was reported for bemcentinib during the observation period. Pharmacokinetic analyses confirmed adequate plasma exposure of bemcentinib, achieving levels consistent with that previously observed in responders in BerGenBio's BGBC008 study of bemcentinib and pembrolizumab in second-line NSCLC patients.
