Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

The following discussion of the financial condition and results of operations of Compass Therapeutics, Inc. should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes to those statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026. Some of the information contained in this discussion and analysis, including information with respect to our plans and strategy for our business, includes forward-looking statements that involve risk, uncertainties and assumptions. You should read the “Risk Factors” section of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the “Risk Factors” section included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, for a discussion of important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the results described in or implied by the forward-looking statements contained in the following discussion and analysis.

Overview

We are a clinical-stage, oncology-focused biopharmaceutical company developing proprietary antibody-based therapeutics to treat multiple human diseases. Our scientific focus is on the relationship between angiogenesis, the immune system, and tumor growth. Our pipeline of novel product candidates is designed to target multiple components required for an effective anti-tumor response. These include modulation of the microvasculature via angiogenesis-targeted agents, induction of a potent immune response via activators on effector cells in the tumor microenvironment, and alleviation of immunosuppressive mechanisms used by tumors to evade immune surveillance. We plan to advance our product candidates through clinical development as both standalone therapies and in combination with proprietary pipeline antibodies based on supportive clinical and nonclinical data.

Our pipeline comprises four clinical product candidates. Our lead product candidate, tovecimig (formerly known as CTX-009), is a bispecific antibody targeting Delta-like ligand 4 (“DLL4”), a ligand of Notch-1, and vascular endothelial growth factor A (“VEGF-A”). Simultaneous blockade of the VEGF-A and the Notch pathways is known to turn productive angiogenesis into non-productive angiogenesis, which leads to tumor shrinkage and apoptosis. CTX-471 is an agonistic antibody targeting a member of the tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily (TNFRSF9), also known as CD-137, a co-stimulatory receptor which is mostly expressed on activated, but not on resting, T-cells and NK cells. CTX-8371 is a bispecific antibody targeting the programmed cell death protein-1 (“PD-1”), an inhibitory immune checkpoint receptor and its ligand PD-L1, two validated immune-oncology targets. CTX-10726 is a bispecific antibody targeting PD-1 and VEGF-A, also two validated immune-oncology targets. For a more detailed description, see our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025.

Recent Developments

Tovecimig Results in COMPANION-002 Phase 2/3 Study in the Second Line Setting for Patients with BTC

In April 2026, we announced survival and safety data from our Phase 2/3 randomized trial of tovecimig in combination with paclitaxel in patients with biliary tract cancer (“BTC”) treated in the second-line setting. We expect feedback from the FDA in the third quarter regarding the COMPANION-002 Phase 2/3 data, prior to a potential BLA filing later this year.

The study met the primary endpoint of overall response rate (“ORR”) with 18.0% in the tovecimig combination arm compared to 5.3% in the paclitaxel control arm, including one complete response in the tovecimig arm. In the final data analysis, the ORR improved to 18.0% (20/111 patients) in the tovecimig combination arm from a previously reported 17.1%. One patient initially characterized as “Non-CR / Non-PD” due to target lesion characteristics was ultimately adjudicated by blinded independent central review to be a partial response. With this change, the p-value also improved to 0.0228 compared to paclitaxel alone (vs previously reported p=0.031). The tovecimig combination arm also demonstrated a highly statistically significant improvement versus paclitaxel alone in the secondary endpoint of median progression-free survival (PFS) of 4.7 months versus 2.6 months, providing a 56% reduction in the risk of progression (hazard ratio=0.44, p0.0001). Secondary endpoint analyses of overall survival (OS) were confounded by both high crossover (54%) and notably prolonged survival in crossover patients randomized to the control arm then treated with tovecimig and, therefore, did not meet statistical significance.

In July 2026, we announced data from this study has been selected for a proffered paper oral presentation at the 2026 ESMO Congress.

Tovecimig Investigator Sponsored Trials

The previously disclosed investigator sponsored trial (“IST”) of tovecimig in combination with the current first-line, standard-of-care regimen of gemcitabine, cisplatin, and durvalumab in patients with BTC (NCT06548412) is ongoing with expansion to additional sites expected.

Two additional ISTs have been initiated, including a study of tovecimig plus FOLFIRI in patients with colorectal cancer in the second line setting (NCT07662031) and a study of tovecimig plus CTX-471 in patients with glioblastoma in the second line setting (NCT07392957). We are evaluating additional studies for tovecimig in other indications, including both ISTs and Company-sponsored studies.

CTX-8371 (PD-1 x PD-L1 bispecific) Phase 1 Expansion Cohorts Enrolling

Phase 1 cohort expansions are actively enrolling patients with triple-negative breast cancer (“TNBC”), Hodgkin lymphoma (“HL”) and non-small cell lung cancer (“NSCLC”) at two dose levels: 3.0 mg/kg and 10.0 mg/kg. The evaluation of an RP2D for further development. Additional data from the cohort expansions are expected in the fourth quarter of 2026.

At the ASCO Annual Meeting in May 2026, we presented data from the dose-escalation portion of this Phase 1, open-label, first-in-human study evaluating CTX-8371 in patients with metastatic or locally advanced malignancies.

[[GREPCENT_TABLE]]
[["","\u25cf","15 patients completed the dose-limiting toxicity (\u201cDLT\u201d) evaluation period and had at least one post-baseline disease assessment in the dose escalation cohort."]]
[[/GREPCENT_TABLE]]

[[GREPCENT_TABLE]]
[["","\u25cf","There were three responses: one patient with TNBC achieved 90% reduction in target tumor lesions at Week 8, one patient with HL achieved a decrease in metabolic activity of target lesions at Week 24 (partial metabolic response), and one patient with NSCLC achieved complete resolution of target lesions at Week 16 after initial pseudo-progression."]]
[[/GREPCENT_TABLE]]

[[GREPCENT_TABLE]]
[["","\u25cf","At the two highest dose levels (3.0 and 10.0 mg/kg), the ORR was 33% (2 of 6 evaluable patients). The responses at the two highest dose levels were durable: 10.5+ months for TNBC and 7.5+ months HL as of May 2026."]]
[[/GREPCENT_TABLE]]

[[GREPCENT_TABLE]]
[["","\u25cf","CTX-8371 was generally well tolerated with no DLTs. All treatment-related adverse events were mild Grade 1 or Grade 2, with the exception of one asymptomatic Grade 3 lipase increase."]]
[[/GREPCENT_TABLE]]

CTX-10726 (PD-1 x VEGF-A bispecific) Phase 1 Dose-Escalation Study Enrolling

The first patients have been dosed in the Phase 1 dose-escalation study of CTX-10726 with locally advanced, unresectable or metastatic renal cell carcinoma, gastroesophageal cancer, hepatocellular carcinoma, or endometrial cancer, in whom standard of care therapies have failed. Clinical data from the dose-escalation cohort is expected in the fourth quarter of 2026.

OPERATING ACTIVITIES

We have funded our operations primarily with proceeds from the sale of our equity securities. Through June 30, 2026, we have received $568 million in gross proceeds from the sale of equity securities.

We have incurred significant operating losses since inception and have not generated any revenue from the sale of products and we do not expect to generate any revenue from the sale of products in the near future, if at all. Our ability to generate product revenue sufficient to achieve profitability will depend heavily on the successful development and eventual commercialization of our therapies and any future product candidates. Our net losses were $25.2 million and $19.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. Our net losses were $43.5 million and $36.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. We had an accumulated deficit of $475 million on June 30, 2026. We expect to continue to incur significant expenses for at least the next several years as we advance through clinical development, develop additional product candidates and seek regulatory approval of any product candidates that complete clinical development. In addition, if we obtain marketing approval for any product candidates, we expect to incur significant commercialization expenses related to product manufacturing, marketing, sales and distribution. We may also incur expenses in connection with the in-licensing or acquisition of additional product candidates.

14

As a result, we will need substantial additional funding to support our continuing operations and pursue our growth strategy. Until such time as we can generate significant revenue from product sales, if ever, we expect to finance our operations through equity and debt financings, or other capital sources, which may include collaborations with other companies or other strategic transactions. As of June 30, 2026, we had $180 million in cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities. We expect that such cash resources will enable us to fund our operating expenses and capital expenditure requirements into 2028. We may be unable to raise additional funds or enter into such other agreements or arrangements when needed on favorable terms, or at all. If we fail to raise capital or enter into such agreements as and when needed, we may have to significantly delay, reduce or eliminate the development and commercialization of one or more of our product candidates or delay our pursuit of potential in-licenses or acquisitions.

Because of the numerous risks and uncertainties associated with product development, we are unable to predict the timing or amount of increased expenses or when, or if, we will be able to achieve or maintain profitability. Even if we are able to generate product sales, we may not become profitable. If we fail to become profitable or are unable to sustain profitability on a continuing basis, then we may be unable to continue our operations at planned levels and be forced to reduce or terminate our operations. Our financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

At-The-Market (“ATM”) Offering

In the first six months of 2026, there were no issuances of common stock through our Open Market Sale AgreementSM with Jefferies LLC (“Jefferies ATM Agreement”). In December 2025, we entered into a Sales Agreement for our ATM offering with Leerink Partners LLC and Cantor Fitzgerald & Co. (the “2026 ATM Agreement”), and the prior Jefferies ATM Agreement was terminated. In the first six months of 2026, we did not sell any shares of common stock under the 2026 ATM Agreement.

Components of Results of Operations

Research and Development

Research and development expenses consist primarily of costs incurred in connection with the development of our product candidates, tovecimig, CTX-471, CTX-8371 and CTX-10726. We expense research and development costs as incurred. These expenses include:

We plan to advance our product candidates through clinical development and commercialization as both standalone therapies and in combination with proprietary pipeline antibodies based on supportive clinical and nonclinical data.

Financial Overview

Since our inception, we have devoted substantially all of our efforts to organizing and staffing our Company, business planning, raising capital, research and development activities, building our intellectual property portfolio and providing general and administrative support for these operations. We have funded our operations primarily with proceeds from the sale of equity securities of $568 million through December 31, 2025.

We have incurred significant operating losses since inception. We have not generated any revenue since our inception and do not expect to generate any revenue from the sale of products in the near future, if at all. Our ability to generate product revenue sufficient to achieve profitability will depend heavily on the successful development and eventual commercialization of our therapies and any future product candidates. Our net losses were $66 million and $49 million for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and as of December 31, 2025, we had an accumulated deficit of $431 million. We expect to continue to incur significant expenses for at least the next several years as we advance through clinical development, develop additional product candidates and seek regulatory approval of any product candidates that complete clinical development. In addition, if we obtain marketing approval for any product candidates, we expect to incur significant commercialization expenses related to product manufacturing, marketing, sales and distribution. We may also incur expenses in connection with the in-licensing or acquisition of additional product candidates.

Until such time as we can generate significant revenue from product sales, if ever, we expect to finance our operations through equity and debt financings, or other capital sources, which may include collaborations with other companies or other strategic transactions. As of December 31, 2025, we had $209 million in cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities. Based on our research and development plans, we expect that these cash resources will enable us to fund our operating expenses and capital expenditures requirements into 2028. We may be unable to raise additional funds or enter into such other agreements or arrangements when needed on favorable terms, or at all. If we fail to raise capital or enter into such agreements as and when needed, we may have to significantly delay, reduce or eliminate the development and commercialization of one or more of our product candidates or delay our pursuit of potential in-licenses or acquisitions.

Because of the numerous risks and uncertainties associated with product development, we are unable to predict the timing or amount of increased expenses or when or if we will be able to achieve or maintain profitability. Even if we are able to generate product sales, we may not become profitable. If we fail to become profitable or are unable to sustain profitability on a continuing basis, then we may be unable to continue our operations at planned levels and be forced to reduce or terminate our operations. Our financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market

On November 2, 2021, shares of our common stock were approved for trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “CMPX”.

Private Investment in Public Entity (“PIPE”) Offering

On November 2, 2023, we entered into a securities purchase agreement ("the "Securities Purchase Agreement") with certain accredited investors (the "Investors") pursuant to which we agreed to sell and issue to the Investors in a PIPE financing an aggregate of 25,000,000 shares of our common stock at a purchase price of $3.21 per share. The 25,000,000 shares were issued on November 4, 2023. The gross proceeds to us from the PIPE are $80.3 million (before deducting placement agent fees and other expenses in connection with the offering).

In connection with the PIPE offering, we paid $4.5 million to the underwriters and for other legal and accounting costs, for net proceeds of $75.8 million.

The PIPE offering was made pursuant to our registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-268652), filed with the SEC on December 2, 2023, and declared effective by the SEC on January 20, 2024, including a prospectus thereto that was filed with the SEC on January 24, 2024.

The PIPE offering was exempt from registration under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and/or Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated by the SEC thereunder. The common stock in the PIPE offering was sold to “accredited investors”, as defined in Regulation D.

At-The-Market (“ATM”) Offering

In 2025, there were no issuances of common stock through our Open Market Sale AgreementSM with Jefferies LLC (“Jefferies ATM Agreement”). In December 2025, we entered into a Sales Agreement for our ATM offering with Leerink Partners LLC and Cantor Fitzgerald & Co and the prior Jefferies ATM Agreement was terminated.

In the first quarter of 2024, we sold, through our Jefferies ATM Agreement, 9,790,577 shares of common stock at an average price of $1.85 for total proceeds of $18.1 million and net proceeds of $17.6 million.

Underwritten Offering

On August 12, 2025, we entered into an underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with Jefferies LLC, Piper Sandler & Co., and Guggenheim Securities, LLC, as representatives (the “Representatives”) of the underwriters named therein (the “Underwriters”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue and sell an aggregate of (a) 33,290,000 shares (the “Firm Shares”) of its common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), at a price to the public of $3.00 per share, and (b) pre-funded warrants to purchase up to 6,710,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock (the “Pre-Funded Warrants”), at a price to the public of $2.9999 per warrant with an exercise price of $0.0001 per share (the “Offering”). Pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, the Company granted the underwriters a 30-day option, which the underwriters exercised, to purchase up to an additional 6,000,000 shares of its Common Stock (the “Optional Shares”, and together with the Firm Shares, the “Shares”) at the public offering price, less underwriting discounts and commissions. The Company received aggregate net proceeds of $129.3 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions of $8.3 million and other offering costs of $0.4 million.
