Mannkind Corporation Announces First Patient Enrolled in Inhale-1St Pediatric Study Evaluating Afrezza®? for Youth with Newly-Diagnosed Type 1 Diabetes (T1d) MannKind Corporation announced that the first patient has been enrolled in INHALE-1ST, a clinical study evaluating the initiation of Afrezza (insulin human) Inhalation Powder shortly after a type 1 diabetes diagnosis in pediatric patients. INHALE-1ST is designed to assess the safety and efficacy of Afrezza used in combination with subcutaneously injected basal insulin once-daily in youth aged 10 to In October 2025, the FDA accepted for review a supplemental Biologics License Application (sBLA) for Afrezza Inhalation Powder in children and adolescents living with type 1 or type 2 diabetes, with a PDUFA target action date of May 29, 2026. If approved, it would be the first needle-free insulin option for pediatric patients in 100+ years of insulin therapy. Afrezza (ins insulin human) Inhalation Powder is a rapid-acting inhaled human insulin indicated to improve glycemic control in adults with diabetes mellitus. Limitations of Use: Not recommended for the treatment of diabetic ketoacidosis or in patients that smoke or have recently stopped smoking. Acute bronchospasm has been observed in Afrezza-treated patients with asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD); Afrezza is contraindicated in patients with chronic lung disease such as asthma or COPD; Before initiating Afrezza, perform a detailed medical history, physical examination, and spirometry (FEV1) to identify potential lung disease in all patients. Most common adverse reactions are hypoglycemia, cough, and throat pain or irritation. Announcement • Jan 26
MannKind Corporation Announces FDA Approval of Updated Afrezza Label Providing Starting Dose Guidance When Switching from Multiple Daily Injections (MDI) or Insulin Pump Mealtime Therapy MannKind Corporation announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved an update to the Prescribing Information for Afrezza®? (insulin human) Inhalation Powder, revising recommendations for the starting mealtime dosage when patients switch from subcutaneous mealtime insulin regimens. The updated labeling was supported by modeling data and in vivo results from the Dose Optimization study and the INHALE-3 trial that demonstrated improved postprandial glucose outcomes following conversion to inhaled insulin using the now-approved conversion dose. The revised dosing recommendations, provided in the table below, include recommended dose conversions from injected mealtime insulin or insulin pump bolus dosing to the appropriate mealtime dosage of Afrezza and are intended to support a clinically appropriate and safe transition for adult patients initiating Afrezza. Please see the Full Prescribing Information for additional details. Afrezza (pronouncedUh-frezz-uh) Inhalation Powder is the only ultra rapid-acting inhaled insulin approved by the U.S. food and Drug Administration to improve glycemic control in adult patients with diabetes mellitus. Administration at the beginning of meals using a small, portable inhaler, Afrezza delivers insulin via MannKind's proprietary Technosphere®? technology, enabling ultra-rapid absorption through the lungs. Afrezza causes a decline in lung pulmonary function over time as measured by FEV1. In clinical trials excluding patients with chronic lung disease and lasting up to 2 years, Afrezza-treated patients experienced a small (40mL) but greater FEV1 decline than comparator-treated patients. Assess pulmonary function with spirometry at baseline, after the first 6 mon ths of therapy and annually thereafter even in the absence of pulmonary symptoms. If symptoms persist, discontinue Afrezza. In clinical trials, 2 cases of lung cancer were observed in patients exposed to Afrezza while no cases were reported for the comparators. In both cases, a prior history of heavy tobacco use was identified as a risk factor for lung cancer. In patients with active lung cancer, a prior history of lung cancer, or in patients at risk of lung cancer, consider whether the benefits of Afrezza use outweigh this potential risk. In clinical trials enrolling patients with type 1 diabetes, diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) was more common in Afrezza-treated patients (0.43%; n=13) than in comparator-treated patients (0.14%; n=3). Patients with type 1 diabetes should always use Afrezza concomitantly with basal insulin. These forward-looking statements are based upon MannKind's current expectations. Actual results and the timing of events could differ materially from those anticipated in such forward-looking statements as a result of various risks and uncertainties, which include, without limitation, risks associated with developing and commercializing product candidates and other risks detailed in MannKind's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), including under the "R Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC").

MannKind Corporation Shares FUROSCIX®? Business Updates MannKind Corporation announced two business updates--approval of the FUROSCIX®? (furosemide) On-body Infusor for pediatric patients and issuance of additional intellectual property protection for the investigational-stage FUROSCIX ReadyFlow™? Autoinjector, which is currently under review by the U.S. FDA. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved a supplemental New Drug Application (sNDA) for FUROSCIX (furosemide) on-body Infusor, expanding the indication of this product to include pediatric patients weighing 43 kg or more. FUROSCIX was previously approved for the treatment of edema associated with chronic heart failure (CHF) and chronic kidney disease (CKD) in adults. This additional approval fulfills all post-marketing requirements outlined in the original approval letter under the Pediatric Research Equity Act. The U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) issued five patents with claims that protect the FUROSCIX Ready flow Autoinjector. These patents cover the high-concentration liquid compositions of furosemide and associated methods of treatment potentially through 2040, further reinforcing MannKind's intellectual property position around this innovative drug-device combination. The patents would be listed in the FDA's Orange Book, if the FUROSCIX readyFlow Autoinjector is approved by the FDA. The newly issued patents complement previously issued patents supporting FUROSCIX and the FUROSCIXReadyFlow Autoinjector, creating a robust IP portfolio that is designed to protect the formulation and delivery approach for years to come.

MannKind Corporation Announces U.S. FDA Accepts for Review its Supplemental New Drug Application of FUROSCIX ReadyFlow Autoinjector for the Treatment of Edema in Adults with Chronic Kidney Disease MannKind Corporation announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has accepted the sNDA seeking approval for FUROSCIX ReadyFlow™? Autoinjector (SCP-111), developed to deliver a subcutaneous furosemide injection in under 10 seconds as an investigational alternative to the FDA-approved FUROSCIX®? (furosemide) On-body Infusor for treatment of edema in adult patients with chronic heart failure (CHF) or chronic kidney disease (CKD). The application has been assigned a Prescription Drug User Fee Act (PDUFA) target action date of July 26, 2026. If approved, FUROSCIX Ready flow Autoinjector would provide a new option for patients with CHF or CKD to manage fluid buildup episodes from the convenience of their home rather than in a hospital setting. The FDA-approved FUROScIX On-body Infusor was approved for adult patients with edema in chronic heart failure in 2022 and in chronic kidney disease in 2025. The ReadyFlow Autoinjector would reduce administration time from five hours to under 10 seconds. The sNDA is supported by positive study results announced in August 2024. Furosemide via the ReadyFlow Autoinjector demonstrated a bioavailability of 107.3% (90% CI: 103.9 - 110.8), achieving the 90% confidence interval limit of 80 to 125%. Additionally, participants who utilized ReadyFlow Autoinjector had similar fluids, urinary sodium excretion and urinary potassium excretion at 6, 8, and 12 hours compared to IV furosemide, and was generally well tolerated with respect to injection site pain. Contact with water or other fluids and certain patient movements during treatment may cause the On-body Infusor to prematurely terminate infusion. Ensure patients can detect and respond to alarms. The most common adverse reactions with FUROSCIX administration in clinical trials were site and skin reactions including erythema, bruising, edema, and injection site pain. Announcement • Nov 11
MannKind Corporation Announces Discontinuing its Phase 3 Clinical Trial Evaluating Nebulized Inhalation Suspension of Clofazimine On November 10, 2025, MannKind Corporation announced that it is discontinuing its Phase 3 clinical trial evaluating nebulized inhalation suspension of clofazimine (MNKD-101") for the treatment of refractory nontuberculous mycobacterial (NTM) lung disease (the ICoN-1 Study). The decision to discontinue the trial follows an analysis of sputum culture conversion data, conducted as part of routine study monitoring and in accordance with the trial protocol, for the first 46 participants who had completed the double-blind treatment phase of the study. None of these 46 participants showed evidence of sputum culture conversion, raising concerns regarding the likelihood of achieving the study's key primary endpoint. Following an ad hoc meeting of the data safety monitoring board ("DSMB") for the ICoN-1 Study on November 8, 2025, the DSMB reviewed the data and agreed with the decision to discontinue the trial due to futility. In this meeting and in all pastDSMB meetings, no safety issues were found. The Company intends to investigate the reasons for this outcome and use the findings to help guide the ongoing development of MNKD-102, the dry powder formulation of clofazimine, which is in the process of advancing from pre-clinical development towards Phase 1.

Members of MannKind's Clinical Education Team will be available for scientific exchange in the medical section of the booth. INHALE-1 is a Phase 3, randomized controlled trial in children and teenagers aged 4-17 with type 1 or type 2 diabetes to evaluate the efficacy and safety of inhaled insulin in combination with basal insulin versus multiple daily injections of rapid acting insulin in combination with basal insulin. The 26-week, open-label clinical trial randomized 230 pediatric subjects to one of two groups: Afrezza or multiple daily injections (MDI) of rapid acting insulin analog (RAA) in combination with basal insulin. the primary endpoint was a non-inferior change in HbA1c levels after 26 weeks. The 17-week results shared that the study met its primary efficacy endpoint of a non-inferior Change in HbA1c between baseline and week 17 compared to the usual care group. The 30-week results from the study expanded upon the positive 17-week data and showed that more people living with T1D were able to reach target A1c levels when they remain on Afrezza (plus basal insulin) or switch to Afrezza from usual care. The signature technologies - dry- powder formulations and inhalation devices - offer rapid and convenient delivery of medicines to the deep lung where they can exert an effect locally or enter the systemic circulation, depending on the target indication. Actual results and the timing of events could differ materially from those anticipated in such forward-looking statements as a result of various risks and uncertainties, which include, without limitation, the risk that issues that develop in the review by the FDA may subject to unanticipated delays or prevent from obtaining the expanded indication as well as other risks detailed in MannKind's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including under the "Risk Factors" heading of its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.

MannKind Announces Six-Month Results From Phase 3 INHALE-1 Pediatric Diabetes Trial Utilizing Inhaled Insulin (Afrezza®) MannKind Corporation announced six-month results from its Phase 3 INHALE-1 study of Afrezza (insulin human) Inhalation Powder in children and adolescents (aged 4-17 years of age). MannKind expects to submit a request for a supplemental new drug application (sNDA) meeting with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 1H 2025 to discuss the data and filing timeline. The INHALE-1 study is a 26-week, open-label clinical trial that randomized 230 subjects to one of two groups: Afrezza or multiple daily injections (MDI) of rapid acting insulin analog (RAA) in combination with basal insulin. The primary endpoint was a non-inferior change in HbA1c levels after 26 weeks. A 26-week extension phase in which all remaining MDI patients switched to Afrezza is still ongoing. Results were as follows: mITT analysis excludes one outlier from the primary ITT endpoint who failed to adhere to the study protocol. An analysis of the full intent-to-treat population (ITT) found that the between-group difference in mean HbA1c change over 26 weeks exceeded the prespecified non-inferiority margin of 0.4% (0.435%), largely driven by the variability of a single patient who did not adhere to the study protocol. A modified ITT (mITT) analysis, which excluded this subject, did not exceed the predetermined threshold of 0.4% (0.370%), thereby establishing the non-inferiority of Afrezza to MDI, which was the primary endpoint of the study. Over 26 weeks of treatment, no difference in lung function parameters were seen between the treatment groups. The Afrezza-treated patients had a mean FEV1 of 2.901 liters (99.6% of predicted) at baseline and 2.934 liters (96.6% of predicted) at 26 weeks. MDI-treated patients had corresponding mean FEV1 values of 2.948 liters (102.3% of predicted) and 2.957 liters (98% of predicted), respectively. Additional safety findings, including for hypoglycemia, did not show any significant concerns or differences between the treatment groups. Reported Earnings • Nov 08

New minor risk - Shareholder dilution The company's shareholders have been diluted in the past year. Increase in shares outstanding: 2.5% This is considered a minor 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 Interest payments are not well covered by earnings (2.0x net interest cover). Negative equity (-US$226m).

New minor risk - Share price stability The company's share price has been volatile over the past 3 months. It is more volatile than 75% of German stocks, typically moving 7.0% a week. This is considered a minor risk. Share price volatility indicates 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. It also 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. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Interest payments are not well covered by earnings (1.5x net interest cover). Negative equity (-US$230m). Minor Risks Share price has been volatile over the past 3 months (7.0% average weekly change). Shareholders have been diluted in the past year (3.0% increase in shares outstanding).

MannKind Corporation Announces Positive 17-Week Results from the INHALE-3 Study MannKind Corporation announced positive 17-week results from the INHALE-3 study, a Phase 4 U.S. clinical trial evaluating Afrezza® (plus basal insulin) vs. usual care (defined as multiple daily injections (MDI), an automated insulin delivery system, (AID) or a pump without automation) utilizing a higher initial conversion dose from mealtime injectable insulin to inhaled insulin. The study, which was presented by the INHALE-3 investigational team at the American Diabetes Association’s (ADA) 84th Scientific Sessions in Orlando, met its primary efficacy endpoint of a non-inferior change in HbA1c between baseline and week 17 compared to the usual care group. Key sub-analysis findings included: More subjects utilizing inhaled insulin achieved glycemic targets: 30% of inhaled insulin group reached <7% (HbA1c) at 17 weeks vs. 17% of the usual care group; 21% of inhaled insulin group vs. 0% of usual care group met A1c goal of <7% if baseline was >7%; 24% of the Afrezza group and 13% of the usual care group achieved TIR above 70% with no increased hypoglycemia in the inhaled insulin group. No difference in CGM-measured hypoglycemia between the groups; Study helps to establish a titrated basal-bolus ratio that is approximately 70/30 inhaled insulin to basal vs. 50/50 for usual care; While more people met the glycemic target of A1c (less than 7%) with Afrezza, some subjects worsened when switching from usual care to inhaled insulin, potentially due to missing doses of inhaled insulin during the day and/or underdosing going into bedtime; More than 50% of subjects at the end of the study expressed an interest in continuing to use Afrezza. The INHALE-3 study is a 17-week, randomized controlled trial with a 13-week extension conducted across 19 U.S. sites. The study, which enrolled 141 patients (123 randomized), assigned participants over 18 years of age with T1D who are using MDI, an automated insulin delivery system, or a pump without automation to either continue their standard of care or initiate an insulin regimen of a daily basal injection plus Afrezza for boluses (mealtime and corrections). Both arms utilized continuous glucose monitoring to assess glucose control. A1c levels were obtained at baseline, 17 and 30-weeks. The full 30-week results of INHALE-3 will be presented at future conferences. Reported Earnings • May 09

Mannkind Corporation Launches Inhale-3 Study to Address the Most Important Unmet Need in Adults Living with Type 1 Diabetes (T1d) MannKind Corporation announced that it is launching the INHALE-3 study to address the most important unmet need in adults living with T1D. INHALE-3 is a 17-week randomized controlled trial with a 13-week extension. The study will randomly assign participants over 18 years of age with T1D who are using MDI, an automated insulin delivery (AID) system, or a pump without automation to either continue their usual care or adopt an insulin regimen of basal injections plus Afrezza. Both arms will utilize continuous glucose monitoring to assess mealtime control and A1c levels. Severe hypoglycemia can cause seizures, may be life-threatening, or cause death. Hypoglycemia can impair concentration ability and reaction time; this may place an individual and others at risk in situations where these abilities are important (e.g., driving or operating other machinery). Hypoglycemia can happen suddenly, and symptoms may differ across patients and change over time in the same patient. Patients and caregivers should be educated to recognize and manage hypoglycemia. Self-monitoring of blood glucose plays an essential role in the prevention and management of hypoglycemia. Decline in Pulmonary Function: AFREZZA causes a decline in lung pulmonary function over time as measured by FEV1. In clinical trials excluding patients with chronic lung disease and lasting up to 2 years, AFREZZA-treated patients experienced a small (40 mL) but greater FEV1 decline than comparator-treated patients. Assess pulmonary function with pulmonary function at baseline, after the first 6 months of therapy and annually thereafter even in the absence of pulmonary symptoms. In patients who have a decline of =20% in FEV1 from baseline, consider discontinuing AFREZZA. Consider more frequent lung function assessment in patients with pulmonary symptoms, e.g., wheezing, bronchospasm, breathing difficult, or persistent or recurring cough. If symptoms persist, discontinue AFREZZA. In clinical trials, 2 cases of lung cancer were observed in patients exposed to AFREZZA while no cases were reported for the comparators. In both cases, a prior history of heavy tobacco use was identified as a risk factor for lung cancer. Two additional cases of lung cancer (squamous cell and lung blastoma) were reported in non-smokers exposed to AFREZZA after the trial completion. These data are insufficient to determine whether AFREZZA has an effect on lung or respiratory tract tumors. In patients with active lung cancer, a prior history of lung cancer, or in patients at risk of lung cancer, consider whether the benefits of AFREZZA use outweigh this potential risk.

MannKind Corporation Announces its Inhaled Clofazimine Will Advance to an Adaptive Phase 2/3 Study For Potential Treatment of Rare Lung Disease MannKind Corporation announced clofazimine inhalation suspension (MNKD 101) will advance to an adaptive Phase 2/3 study. Additionally, a paper has been published in the American Society for Microbiology journal Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy examining the potential for treatment of nontuberculous mycobacterial (NTM) infection through direct delivery of inhaled clofazimine to the lungs, overcoming the systemic toxicity witnessed in oral treatments. Pulmonary NTM infection is recognized as a major global health concern due to its rising prevalence worldwide. It is a serious infection that is caused by bacteria common in the environment that can lead to a reduction in lung function, cough, fatigue, and quality of life. It is estimated that approximately 86,000-180,000 people in the U.S. alone are living with NTM lung disease, and it is on the rise growing 8% each year with women, the elderly, and those with underlying lung conditions at greatest risk. MNKD-101 has been designated by the FDA as both an orphan lung and a qualified infectious disease product (QIDP) for the treatment of pulmonary NTM infections. The 28-day preclinical toxicology study included toxicokinetic analyses on days 29, 56, and 84. The findings indicated: Significant residual drug in lung tissue, and long lung residence post-dosing at all three dose levels. Drug concentrations in the lung remained well above the average NTM minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC, for MAC and Mabsc) at all time points, with measurable clofazimine levels at 28- and 56-days post-dosing. Study MKC-CI-001 was a Phase I randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, single- (SAD) and multiple-ascending dose (MAD) study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of MNKD-101. The dosing study evaluated low, mid, and high doses of clofazimine administered using a jet nebulizer. The key safety findings of the study included: Clofazimine inhalation solution found to be generally well tolerated at daily doses of up to 90 mg. No lab abnormalities, QT prolongation, or serious adverse events were identified. Board Change • Nov 16
