Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
You should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations together with our condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes appearing in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. This discussion and other parts of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contain forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties, such as statements of our plans, objectives, expectations and intentions. As a result of many factors, including those factors set forth in the “Risk Factors” section of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, our actual results could differ materially from the results described in, or implied by, the forward-looking statements contained in the following discussion and analysis.
Objective
The following Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations is intended to provide information necessary to understand our condensed consolidated financial statements and highlight certain other information which, in the opinion of management, will enhance a reader’s understanding of our financial condition, changes in financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows. In particular, the discussion is intended to provide an analysis of significant trends and material changes in our financial position and the operating results of our business during the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 as compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2025. This discussion should be read in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q as well as our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, which includes detailed discussions of various items impacting our business, results of operations and financial condition.
Overview
We are a biopharmaceutical company driven by science and compassion to revolutionize care for patients with challenging respiratory and vascular diseases such as pulmonary arterial hypertension (“PAH”) and pulmonary hypertension associated with interstitial lung disease (“PH-ILD”). We operate through our wholly owned operating subsidiaries, Liquidia Technologies, Inc. and Liquidia PAH, LLC, formerly known as RareGen.
We currently generate revenue through the sale of YUTREPIA (treprostinil) inhalation powder (“YUTREPIA”) and pursuant to a promotion agreement with Sandoz Inc. (“Sandoz”), dated as of August 1, 2018, as amended (the “Promotion Agreement”), under which we share profit derived from the sale of Sandoz’s generic treprostinil injection (“Treprostinil Injection”) in the United States.
We employ a targeted commercial field force calling on healthcare providers involved in the treatment of PAH and PH-ILD in the United States, as well as key stakeholders involved in the distribution and reimbursement of medicines to treat these patients.
YUTREPIA is an inhaled dry powder formulation of treprostinil designed with our proprietary PRINT technology, a particle engineering platform that enables precise production of uniform drug particles, to improve the therapeutic profile of treprostinil by enhancing deep lung delivery while using a convenient, low effort dry-powder inhaler (“DPI”) and by achieving higher dose levels than the labeled doses of other marketed inhaled treprostinil therapies. YUTREPIA was approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) in May 2025 for the treatment of both PAH and PH-ILD, and began commercialization in June 2025.
Treprostinil Injection is a fully-substitutable generic treprostinil for parenteral administration in the United States. We have the exclusive rights to conduct commercial activities for Treprostinil Injection and work jointly with Sandoz on commercial strategy for the product. Sandoz retains all rights in and to Treprostinil Injection and holds the Abbreviated New Drug Application (“ANDA”) for Treprostinil Injection.
We also conduct research, development and manufacturing of novel products by applying our subject matter expertise in respiratory and vascular diseases. For example, we are currently developing L606, an investigational, liposomal formulation of treprostinil, which we licensed from Pharmosa Biopharm Inc. (“Pharmosa”), that is administered twice-

daily with a short-duration next-generation nebulizer. L606 is currently being evaluated in an open-label study in the United States for treatment of PAH and PH-ILD and in a worldwide, placebo-controlled pivotal study for the treatment of PH-ILD. We are also planning to conduct clinical studies to evaluate YUTREPIA for the treatment of pulmonary hypertension associated with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (“PH-COPD”), idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (“IPF”), progressive pulmonary fibrosis (“PPF”) and Raynaud’s phenomenon associated with systemic sclerosis (“SSc-RP”).
We have historically incurred significant annual operating losses. Our net losses were $68.9 million and $128.3 million for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. As of June 30, 2026, we had an accumulated deficit of $498.7 million. We expect to incur significant expenses for the foreseeable future as we continue commercialization of YUTREPIA and advance our product candidates through clinical trials, seek regulatory approval of such product candidates and pursue commercialization of any such approved product candidates. These efforts require significant amounts of capital, adequate personnel and infrastructure, and extensive compliance-reporting capabilities. It is uncertain whether and when, if ever, we will realize sustained revenue from sales of such additional product candidates. Additionally, our HCR Agreement contains fixed quarterly payments and minimum cash covenants that require us to maintain cash and cash equivalents in an amount at least equal to $15.0 million for the remainder of the payment term, which based on amounts funded as of June 30, 2026, is expected to conclude in 2033.
Our future funding requirements will be heavily determined by whether we are able to successfully maintain FDA approval for and commercialize YUTREPIA and the resources needed to support further development of our products and product candidates. Based on current operating plans and excluding any additional external financing, we will have sufficient cash and cash equivalents to fund operating expenses and capital requirements and meet our minimum cash covenants beyond one year from the issuance of these condensed consolidated financial statements. We have based this estimate on assumptions that may prove to be wrong, and we could be limited in our ability to continue to commercialize YUTREPIA and/or we could utilize our available capital resources sooner than we currently expect, which would have a material impact on our operations.
Components of Statements of Operations
Product Sales, Net
We began generating revenue from the sales of YUTREPIA in June 2025, following the FDA approval on May 23, 2025, for the treatment of PAH and PH-ILD. Revenues from product sales are recognized net of variable consideration due to rebates, chargebacks, trade discounts and allowances, sales returns, and other incentives. Provisions for estimated reductions to revenue are provided for in the same period the related sales are recorded and are based on contractual terms, actual utilization data, forecasted payor mix, total prescriptions and industry data. We expect product sales to increase if we are able to maintain FDA approval for YUTREPIA and gain market share.
Service Revenue, Net
We primarily generate service revenue pursuant to the Promotion Agreement, under which we receive a 50% share in the profit derived from the sale of Treprostinil Injection in the United States. Liquidia PAH has the exclusive rights to conduct commercial activities to encourage the appropriate use of Treprostinil Injection. To administer Treprostinil Injection through subcutaneous injection, patients currently must use the CADD-MS 3 infusion pump manufactured by ICU Medical. ICU Medical no longer manufactures or supports the CADD-MS 3 infusion pump. Although we believe that the number of available CADD-MS 3 infusion pumps will be sufficient to serve patients through at least the end of 2026, it is possible that the availability of CADD-MS 3 infusion pumps could end earlier. Due to this limitation in the availability of pumps, specialty pharmacies will limit the number of patients that they place on subcutaneous Treprostinil Injection therapy in order to ensure that patients placed on subcutaneous administration of Treprostinil Injection will not have to discontinue such treatment due to the unavailability of CADD-MS infusion pumps. Until we and/or Sandoz are able to obtain a pump to replace the CADD-MS 3 infusion pump, if ever, the number of patients that can receive subcutaneous administration of Treprostinil Injection will continue to be constrained. Revenue will continue to be impacted unless and until alternative pumps are available.

Cost of Product Sales
Cost of product sales includes direct and indirect costs related to the manufacturing of inventory products sold, including third-party manufacturing costs, packaging services, freight, storage costs, allocation of overhead costs of employees involved with manufacturing and net sales-based royalty expense. As of June 30, 2026, we have sold through all inventory previously expensed to research and development and accordingly, our future cost of product sales of will reflect the full cost of manufacturing YUTREPIA.
Cost of Service Revenue
Cost of service revenue consists of (i) an allocation of the cost of our commercial field force associated with calling on healthcare providers involved in the treatment of PAH with Treprostinil Injection, as well as key stakeholders involved in the distribution and reimbursement of Treprostinil Injection and (ii) amortization of the intangible asset associated with the Promotion Agreement. We amortize the intangible asset associated with the Promotion Agreement in a manner consistent with our recognition of the related revenue.
Research and Development Expenses
Research and development expenses are incurred in connection with the development of our products and product candidates. We expense research and development costs as incurred. These expenses include employee-related expenses and stock-based compensation for personnel in research and development functions as well as regulatory costs, third-party costs related to conducting clinical trials, such as expenses incurred under agreements with CROs, and the cost of clinical trial materials. Research and development expenses also include costs of acquired product licenses and related technology rights where there is no alternative future use.
We expect our research and development expenses to increase related to planned clinical trials and development of L606, however, levels of research and development spending are inherently uncertain and highly dependent upon the progression of projects and may vary. This uncertainty is due to the numerous risks and uncertainties associated with the duration and cost of clinical trials and the terms and timing of regulatory approvals.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Selling, general and administrative expenses primarily consist of salaries and related costs, including stock-based compensation, for personnel in executive, administrative, finance, legal, commercial and technical operations functions. Selling, general and administrative expenses also include corporate infrastructure and software costs, patent filing and prosecution costs and professional fees for marketing, litigation, auditing and tax services and insurance. Commercial costs inclu

Based on current operating plans and excluding any additional external financing, we will have sufficient cash and cash equivalents to fund operating expenses and capital requirements and meet our minimum cash covenants beyond one year from the issuance of these consolidated financial statements. We have based this estimate on assumptions that may prove to be wrong, and we could be limited in our ability to continue to commercialize YUTREPIA and/or we could utilize our available capital resources sooner than we currently expect, which would have a material impact on our operations.
Components of Statements of Operations
Product Sales, Net
We began generating revenue from the sales of YUTREPIA in June 2025, following the FDA approval on May 23, 2025, for the treatment of PAH and PH-ILD. Revenues from product sales are recognized net of variable consideration due to rebates, chargebacks, trade discounts and allowances, sales returns, and other incentives. Provisions for estimated reductions to revenue are provided for in the same period the related sales are recorded and are based on contractual terms, actual utilization data, forecasted payor mix, total prescriptions and industry data. We expect product sales to increase if we are able to maintain FDA approval for YUTREPIA and gain market share.
Service Revenue, Net
We primarily generate service revenue pursuant to the Promotion Agreement, under which we receive a 50% share in the profit derived from the sale of Treprostinil Injection in the United States. Liquidia PAH has the exclusive rights to conduct commercial activities to encourage the appropriate use of Treprostinil Injection. To administer Treprostinil Injection through subcutaneous injection, patients currently must use the CADD-MS 3 infusion pump manufactured by ICU Medical. ICU Medical no longer manufactures or supports the CADD-MS 3 infusion pump. Although we believe that the number of available CADD-MS 3 infusion pumps will be sufficient to serve patients through at least the end of

2026, it is possible that the availability of CADD-MS 3 infusion pumps could end earlier. Due to this limitation in the availability of pumps, specialty pharmacies will limit the number of patients that they place on subcutaneous Treprostinil Injection therapy in order to ensure that patients placed on subcutaneous administration of Treprostinil Injection will not have to discontinue such treatment due to the unavailability of CADD-MS infusion pumps. Until we and/or Sandoz are able to obtain a pump to replace the CADD-MS 3 infusion pump, if ever, the number of patients that can receive subcutaneous administration of Treprostinil Injection will continue to be constrained. Revenue will continue to be impacted unless and until alternative pumps are available.
Cost of Product Sales
Cost of product sales includes direct and indirect costs related to the manufacturing of inventory products sold, including third-party manufacturing costs, packaging services, freight, storage costs, allocation of overhead costs of employees involved with manufacturing and net sales-based royalty expense. We expect to use inventory previously expensed to research and development within the next three months, and accordingly, we expect our cost of product sales of YUTREPIA to increase as a percentage of product sales in future periods as we produce and sell inventory that reflects the full cost of manufacturing YUTREPIA.
Cost of Service Revenue
Cost of service revenue consists of (i) an allocation of the cost of our commercial field force associated with calling on healthcare providers involved in the treatment of PAH with Treprostinil Injection, as well as key stakeholders involved in the distribution and reimbursement of Treprostinil Injection and (ii) amortization of the intangible asset associated with the Promotion Agreement. We amortize the intangible asset associated with the Promotion Agreement in a manner consistent with our recognition of the related revenue.
Research and Development Expenses
Research and development expenses are incurred in connection with the development of our products and product candidates. We expense research and development costs as incurred. These expenses include employee-related expenses and stock-based compensation for personnel in research and development functions as well as regulatory costs, third-party costs related to conducting clinical trials, such as expenses incurred under agreements with CROs and the cost of clinical trial materials. Research and development expenses also include costs of acquired product licenses and related technology rights where there is no alternative future use.
We expect our research and development expenses to increase related to planned clinical trials and development of L606, however, levels of research and development spending are inherently uncertain and highly dependent upon the progression of projects and may vary. This uncertainty is due to the numerous risks and uncertainties associated with the duration and cost of clinical trials and the terms and timing of regulatory approvals.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Selling, general and administrative expenses primarily consist of salaries and related costs, including stock-based compensation, for personnel in executive, administrative, finance, legal, commercial and technical operations functions. Selling, general and administrative expenses also include corporate infrastructure and software costs, patent filing and prosecution costs and professional fees for marketing, litigation, auditing and tax services and insurance. Commercial costs include bona fide service fees related to distribution of YUTREPIA and the cost of certain patient support programs.
Other Income (Expense)
Other income (expense) is comprised of interest income and expense. Interest income consists of interest earned on our cash equivalents. Interest expense consists of non-cash interest charges on long-term debt.
