The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.

OVERVIEW

We are a people-first global biopharmaceutical company striving to deliver first- and best-in-class therapies to transform the lives of patients facing serious diseases. Our commercial portfolio and clinical pipeline are organized around three therapeutic areas: Respiratory, Immunology & Inflammation, and Neuro & Other Rare. To complement our internal research and development, we also actively evaluate in-licensing and acquisition opportunities for commercial products, product candidates, and technologies. For a more complete discussion of our business, strategy, products and pipeline, see Part I, Item 1, “Business,” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.

Our Marketed Products

Our two commercial products, ARIKAYCE and BRINSUPRI, are both part of our Respiratory therapeutic area. ARIKAYCE is approved in the US as ARIKAYCE (amikacin liposome inhalation suspension), in Europe as ARIKAYCE Liposomal 590 mg Nebuliser Dispersion and in Japan as ARIKAYCE inhalation 590 mg (amikacin sulfate inhalation drug product). ARIKAYCE received accelerated approval in the US in September 2018 for the treatment of MAC lung disease as part of a combination antibacterial drug regimen for adult patients with limited or no alternative treatment options in a refractory setting. In October 2020, the EC approved ARIKAYCE Liposomal for the treatment of NTM lung infections caused by MAC in adults with limited treatment options who do not have CF. In March 2021, Japan's MHLW approved ARIKAYCE for the treatment of patients with NTM lung disease caused by MAC who did not sufficiently respond to prior treatment with a multidrug regimen. NTM lung disease caused by MAC (which we refer to as MAC lung disease) is a rare and often chronic infection that can cause irreversible lung damage and can be fatal. We are not aware of any other approve

ITEM 7.    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion also should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto contained elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. This discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. As a result of many factors, such as those set forth under the section entitled Risk Factors, Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements and elsewhere herein, our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements.

EXECUTIVE OVERVIEW

We are a people-first global biopharmaceutical company striving to deliver first- and best-in-class therapies to transform the lives of patients facing serious diseases. Our commercial portfolio and clinical pipeline are organized around three therapeutic areas: Respiratory, Immunology & Inflammation, and Neuro & Other Rare.

Our two commercial products, ARIKAYCE and BRINSUPRI, are both part of the Respiratory therapeutic area. ARIKAYCE is approved in the US as ARIKAYCE (amikacin liposome inhalation suspension), in Europe as ARIKAYCE Liposomal 590 mg Nebuliser Dispersion and in Japan as ARIKAYCE inhalation 590 mg (amikacin sulfate inhalation drug product). ARIKAYCE was approved in the US in September 2018, in the EU in October 2020 and in Japan in March 2021.

BRINSUPRI (brensocatib 25 mg and 10 mg tablets), an oral, once-daily treatment for NCFB in patients 12 years of age and older, was approved in the US in August 2025. In November 2025, the EC approved BRINSUPRI (brensocatib 25 mg tablets) for the treatment of NCFB in patients 12 years of age and older with two or more exacerbations in the prior 12 months.

Our Respiratory therapeutic area also includes the clinical-stage programs TPIP and INS1148. TPIP is an inhaled dry powder formulation of the treprostinil prodrug treprostinil palmitil that may offer a differentiated product profile for PH-ILD, PAH, PPF, and IPF. INS1148 is a monoclonal antibody targeting SCF248.

The clinical-stage program in our Inflammation & Immunology therapeutic area is brensocatib, a small molecule, oral, reversible inhibitor of DPP1, for the treatment of patients with HS.

The clinical-stage programs in our Neuro & Other Rare therapeutic area are INS1201, an intrathecally delivered gene therapy for patients with DMD, and INS1202, an intrathecally delivered gene therapy for patients with ALS.

Our pre-clinical research programs encompass a wide range of technologies and modalities, including gene therapy, AI-driven protein engineering, protein manufacturing, RNA end-joining, and synthetic rescue.

Refer to Part I, Item 1. "Business" for a detailed discussion of our ongoing commercial and clinical programs.

Prior to 2019, we had not generated significant revenue, and through December 31, 2025, we had an accumulated deficit of $5.6 billion. We have financed our operations primarily through the public offerings of our equity securities, debt financings and revenue interest financings. Although it is difficult to predict our future funding requirements, based upon our current operating plan, we anticipate that our cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities as of December 31, 2025 will enable us to fund our operations for at least the next 12 months.

Our ability to reduce our operating loss and begin to generate positive cash flow from operations depends on the continued success in commercializing our marketed products and achieving positive results from the ARIKAYCE confirmatory clinical trial program in order to obtain full approval of ARIKAYCE in the US and potentially reach more patients. Our continued success also depends on obtaining regulatory approval for brensocatib in an additional indication, bringing additional clinical stage products, such as TPIP, INS1148, INS1201, and INS1202, to market and advancing our pre-clinical research programs. We expect to continue to incur substantial expenses related to our research and development activities as we continue the ARIKAYCE confirmatory clinical program, conduct studies to explore the potential of brensocatib in HS, conduct trials of TPIP in PH-ILD, PAH, PPF, and IPF, and fund development of our pre-clinical research programs. We also expect to continue to incur significant costs related to the commercialization of our marketed products. Our financial results may fluctuate from quarter to quarter and will depend on, among other factors, the net sales of our marketed products; the scope and progress of our research and development efforts; and the timing of certain expenses. We cannot predict whether or when new products or new indications for marketed products will receive regulatory approval or, if any such approval is received, whether we will be able to successfully commercialize such products and whether or when we may become profitable.

KEY COMPONENTS OF OUR RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Product Revenues, Net

Product revenues, net, consist of net sales of ARIKAYCE and BRINSUPRI. We recognize revenue for product received by our customers net of allowances for customer credits, including prompt pay discounts, service fees, estimated rebates, including government rebates, such as Medicaid rebates and Medicare Part D reimbursements in the US, and chargebacks.

72

Cost of Product Revenues (Excluding Amortization of Intangible Assets)

Cost of product revenues (excluding amortization of intangible assets) consist primarily of direct and indirect costs related to the manufacturing of ARIKAYCE and BRINSUPRI sold, including third-party manufacturing costs, packaging services, freight, and allocation of overhead costs, in addition to royalty expenses.

Research and Development (R&D) Expenses

R&D expenses consist of salaries, benefits and other related costs, including stock-based compensation, for personnel serving in our research and development functions. R&D expenses also include other internal operating expenses, the cost of manufacturing product candidates, including the medical devices for drug delivery, for clinical study, the cost of conducting clinical studies, and the cost of conducting pre-clinical and research activities. In addition, R&D expenses include payments to third parties for the license rights to products in development (prior to marketing approval), and may include the cost of asset acquisitions. Our R&D expenses related to manufacturing our product candidates and medical devices for clinical study are primarily related to activities at CMOs that manufacture our product candidates and early-stage research activities. Our R&D expenses related to clinical trials are primarily related to activities at contract research organizations (CROs) that conduct and manage clinical trials on our behalf. These contracts with CROs set forth the scope of work to be completed at a fixed fee or billed at a per-unit cost, and increase proportionally to the volume of services rendered. Payments under these contracts with CROs primarily depend on performance criteria such as the successful enrollment of patients or the completion of clinical trial milestones as well as time-based fees. Expenses are accrued based on contracted amounts applied to the level of patient enrollment and to activity according to the clinical trial protocol. Deposits for goods or services that will be used or rendered for future research and development activities are deferred and capitalized. Such amounts are then recognized as an expense as the related goods are delivered or the services are performed.

Selling, General and Administrative (SG&A) Expenses

SG&A expenses consist of salaries, benefits and other related costs, including stock-based compensation, for our non-employee directors and personnel serving in our executive, finance and accounting, legal and compliance, commercial and pre-commercial, corporate development, field sales, information technology and human resource functions. SG&A expenses also include professional fees for legal services, consulting services, including commercial activities, insurance, board of director fees, tax and accounting services.

Amortization of Intangible Assets

Upon commercialization of each of ARIKAYCE and BRINSUPRI, the related intangible assets began to be amortized over their estimated useful lives. The fair values assigned to our intangible assets are based on estimates and assumptions we believe are reasonable based on available facts and circumstances. Unanticipated events or circumstances may occur that require us to review the assets for impairment.

Change in Fair Value of Deferred and Contingent Consideration Liabilities

In connection with the Business Acquisition, we recorded deferred and contingent consideration liabilities related to potential future milestone payments. Adjustments to the fair value are due to changes in the probability of achieving milestones, our stock price, or certain other estimated assumptions. The change in fair value of deferred and contingent consideration liabilities is calculated quarterly with gains and losses recorded in the consolidated statements of comprehensive loss. Our deferred consideration liabilities were fully settled in the third quarter of 2024. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, only contingent consideration liabilities exist.

Investment Income and Interest Expense

Investment income consists of interest and dividend income earned on our cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities. Interest expense consists primarily of contractual interest costs, Royalty Financing Agreement non-cash interest expense and the amortization of debt issuance costs related to our debt. Debt issuance costs are amortized to interest expense using the effective interest rate method over the term of the debt. Our consolidated balance sheets reflect debt, net of the debt issuance costs paid to the lender, and other third-party costs.

Change in Fair Value of Interest Rate Swap

We record derivative and hedge transactions in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the US (GAAP). In the fourth quarter of 2022, we entered into an interest rate swap contract (the Swap Contract) with a notional value of $350.0 million to economically hedge our variable rate-based term debt for three years, effectively changing the variable rate under the term debt to a fixed interest rate. Our interest rate swap was not designated as a hedging instrument for accounting purposes. We settled and terminated the Swap Contract in October 2024. All changes in the fair value of the Swap Contract were reported as change in fair value of interest rate swap in the consolidated statements of comprehensive loss.
