Speaker #4: Thank you, Sofia. So let me start with the operating momentum. Net sales reached SEK 31.1 million in the quarter, up 62% year-on-year, while first half sales increased 74% to SEK 56.5 million.

Henrik Bergentoft: Thank you, Sofia. Let me start with the operating momentum. Net sales reached SEK 31.1 million in the quarter, up 62% year-on-year, while H1 sales increased 74% to SEK 56.5 million. The 98% gross margin for the H1 shows that this growth converts efficiently into gross profit and reinforces the scalability of our business model. We are pairing that momentum with disciplined cost management. H1 operating expenses decreased 2% to SEK 146.9 million, combined with the sales growth, helping improve the EBIT loss to SEK 86.2 million from SEK 116.1 million. Key message is that the business is moving in the right direction with sales uptake, strong margins, and tight cost control. We are not buying growth at any price. We are scaling revenue while constantly monitoring the quality of every krona spent. Our approach to cost is very selective and execution-led.

We are scaling revenue while constantly monitoring the quality of every krona spent. Our approach to cost is very selective and execution-led. Quarterly operating expenses were SEK 81.1 million, with commercial investments focused on the European markets already generating growth, Germany, Spain, and Italy. Sales and marketing spend of SEK 40.8 million therefore supports a clear revenue objective.

Henrik Bergentoft: Quarterly operating expenses were SEK 81.1 million, with commercial investments focused on the European markets already generating growth, Germany, Spain, and Italy. Sales and marketing spend of SEK 40.8 million therefore supports a clear revenue objective. At the same time, G&A costs decreased to SEK 16.7 million from SEK 18.6 million, demonstrating tangible cost control. R&D was SEK 23.5 million in the quarter, with efforts now focused on advancing our pipeline into clinic with the glioblastoma Window of Opportunity work. Across the H1, total operating expenses were down 2% year-on-year. As communicated, the Q2 cost base is higher than the Q1, mainly due to additional congresses. All in all, our cost base is to be perceived as disciplined allocation to protect commercial momentum, control overhead costs, and preserve the programs with the strongest potential. Spending our funds to grow revenue today and build high-value options for tomorrow.

All in all, our cost base should be seen as disciplined allocation to protect commercial momentum, control overhead costs, and preserve the programs with the strongest potential.

Henrik Bergentoft: All in all, our cost base is to be perceived as disciplined allocation to protect commercial momentum, control overhead costs, and preserve the programs with the strongest potential. Spending our funds to grow revenue today and build high-value options for tomorrow. We ended the quarter with SEK 158 million in cash. The rights issue completed in March contributed SEK 167 million after transaction cost, materially strengthening the liquidity position and providing a firmer financial base for execution towards a positive cash flow during 2027. Over to you again, Sofia.

Speaker #3: Thank you, Henrik. The foundation of Oncopeptides is built on our commercial execution in Europe, targeting an estimated SEK 1.5 billion market potential under our current label.

Sofia Heigis: Thank you, Henrik. The foundation of Oncopeptides is built on our commercial execution in Europe, targeting an estimated SEK 1.5 billion market potential under our current labels. In parallel, we are unlocking additional geographic markets through commercial partnerships. Long term, our PDC platform can unlock multiple indication potential in difficult-to-treat cancers, headlined by our CNS tumor program with initial focus on glioblastoma, addressing a global market expected to grow to $8 billion based on the high unmet need. Our execution during the Q2 has advanced every key pillar of this investment thesis. Commercial momentum delivered 62% revenue growth in Q2 compared to the same period last year. We formally submitted our Type II variation to enter the third line of multiple myeloma. The glioblastoma Window of Opportunity study was initiated and first patient dosed.

Sofia Heigis: We expanded our European reach via the Salus distribution partnership in Central and Eastern Europe, while continuing active business development discussions in Japan and other regions. Turning to our commercial performance across Europe, the contribution during the quarter comes from Germany, strong uptake in Italy, and a level up in Spain. More than 1,000 patients have now been treated with Pepaxti across Europe since our EMA approval. This growing real-world clinical experience is generating peer-to-peer advocacy and validation. Furthermore, our 1B recommendation in the EHA-ESMO guidelines continues to play an important role in defining Pepaxti's unique clinical position in a complex treatment landscape. In a rapidly evolving market with many options being launched, it is critical to identify a unique position supported by both real-world data and experience. For Pepaxti, data consistently points to three distinct patient profiles where Pepaxti delivers clear value.

Sofia Heigis: In a rapidly evolving market with many options being launched, it is critical to identify a unique position supported by both real-world data and experience. For Pepaxti, data consistently points to three distinct patient profiles where Pepaxti delivers clear value. First, for patients unable to receive immunotherapy due to, for example, frailty, advanced age, comorbidities, or concerns about the risk for severe infections. As an ideal bridge between immune-based therapies offering a non-cross-resistant disease control while allowing the immune system and the T cells to recover.

Speaker #3: For Perplexity, data consistently points to three distinct patient profiles where Perplexity delivers clear value. First, for patients unable to receive immunotherapy due to, for example, frailty, advanced age, comorbidities, or concerns about the risk for severe infections.

Sofia Heigis: First, for patients unable to receive immunotherapy due to, for example, frailty, advanced age, comorbidities, or concerns about the risk for severe infections. As an ideal bridge between immune-based therapies offering a non-cross-resistant disease control while allowing the immune system and the T cells to recover. As an effective post-immunotherapy salvage option for patients who have relapsed or become refractory to almost all other drugs, including BCMA-targeted agents and CAR T-cell therapies. During EHA in Stockholm in June, we hosted a symposium titled "Beyond Immunotherapy: Redefining the Treatment Class of PDC and Clinical Realities," shared by Professor Maria Kraut and featuring six leading hematologists from Germany, Spain, and Italy. The symposium addressed sequencing strategies and highlighted how Pepaxti's unique PDC mechanism offer an outpatient-friendly solution that does not rely on host immune fitness.

I was, of course, attending myself, and I enjoyed meeting and listening to all the experts sharing their views and experience.

Sofia Heigis: The symposium addressed sequencing strategies and highlighted how Pepaxti's unique PDC mechanism offer an outpatient-friendly solution that does not rely on host immune fitness. I was, of course, attending myself, and I enjoyed meeting and listening to all the experts sharing their views and experience. Seven slightly different perspectives based on the country and the setting they came from, all confirming the unmet need and the use of Pepaxti and the positions in which we believe we can make the most difference for patients through external validation.

Sofia Heigis: I was, of course, attending myself, and I enjoyed meeting and listening to all the experts sharing their views and experience. Seven slightly different perspectives based on the country and the setting they came from, all confirming the unmet need and the use of Pepaxti and the positions in which we believe we can make the most difference for patients through external validation. In addition to the symposium, we had a Swedish-themed booth. We launched digital engagement campaigns throughout EHA, and we had a high number of qualitative face-to-face interactions with healthcare professionals, mainly from our key markets, but also from other markets across the globe. These activities reinforced our core messaging around the necessity of the importance for patients to gain access to Pepaxti as they need therapy options complementing immunotherapy. Today, we have several collaborations with key experts underway based on the Congress activities.

Speaker #3: Seven slightly different perspectives based on the country and the setting they came from, all confirming the unmet need and the use of PEPAXTO in the positions in which we believe we can make the most difference for patients.

Speaker #3: True external validation. In addition to the symposium, we had a Swedish-themed booth. We launched digital engagement campaigns throughout EHA, and we had a high number of qualitative, face-to-face interactions with healthcare professionals.

Speaker #3: Today, we have several collaborations with key experts underway, based on the Congress activities. In Germany, commercial momentum stepped up during the quarter, with steady gains in monthly new patient starts and an expanding prescriber base across university hospitals and office-based practices.

Sofia Heigis: In Germany, commercial momentum stepped up during the quarter with steady gains in monthly new patient starts and an expanding prescriber base across university hospitals and office-based practices. We also enrolled the first patient into the prospective MARINA RWE study, strengthening our office-based data generation. With strict cost control and volume growth, Germany is progressing towards country-level profitability for the full year. We should be honest and say that it is only the experienced prescribers that do use Pepaxti in the exact right position and in fourth line in Germany. This means that once physicians gain experience, they gain confidence and move from very late lines to the right position. It also means we still have work to do to ensure we get more use in early lines, which commonly means even longer treatment duration. In short, a lot of potential to grab still in Germany.

It also means we still have work to do to ensure we get more use in early lines, which commonly means even longer treatment duration. In short, a lot of potential to grab still in Germany. The German Pepaxti prescriber base continues to demonstrate steady growth. With a high number of multiple myeloma prescribers in Germany, we still have many more left to gain. Our focus is naturally unlocking sites with the highest potential.

Speaker #3: In short, there is still a lot of potential to capture in Germany. The German PEPAXTO prescriber base continues to demonstrate steady growth. With a high number of multiple myeloma prescribers in Germany, we still have many more left to gain.

Sofia Heigis: The German Pepaxti prescriber base continues to demonstrate steady growth. With a high number of multiple myeloma prescribers in Germany, we still have many more left to gain. Our focus is naturally unlocking sites with the highest potential. Italy continues to perform exceptionally well and remains a key growth driver. It represents our most mature market in terms of prescriber experience and fourth-line usage, showing the highest estimated average number of treatment cycles per patient. We are seeing a continuous broadening of the hospital accounts throughout the country. In Spain, we have worked hard to actively manage the local dynamics in a very stressed market. Spain has not only experienced many launches in a very short period, but also unusual limitation in access to HCPs due to the strike that has been ongoing during the full period.

Speaker #3: Spain has not only experienced many launches in a very short period, but also unusually limited access to HCPs due to the strike that has been ongoing during the entire period.

Speaker #3: We do start to see results of our resilience and all the efforts, with a clear step-up in commercial uptake at the end of Q2, achieving an all-time high monthly sales level in June.

Sofia Heigis: We do start to see results of our resilience and all the efforts with a clear step up in commercial uptake end Q2, achieving an all-time high monthly sales level in June. We are continuing to work closely with key opinion leaders as peer-to-peer recommendations is key in a pressured market to sustain this positive momentum. Our phased roll out across Europe covers an estimated SEK 1.5 billion market potential under the current label, protected by market exclusivity until 2037. With direct commercial operations established in the phase 1 and part of the phase 2 markets, a recent agreement with Salus accelerates entry into Central and Eastern Europe. I will get back to CEE in a short while. First, let's focus on a brief update on where we stand with the Type II variation submitted to EMA.

Speaker #3: We are continuing to work closely with key opinion leaders, as peer-to-peer recommendations are key in a pressured market to sustain this positive momentum.

I will get back to CEE in a short while. First, let's focus on a brief update on where we stand with the Type II variation submitted to EMA. Our submission to move from fourth line into third line represents a transformative opportunity.

Speaker #3: But first, let's focus on a brief update on where we stand with the type II variation submitted to the EMA. Our submission to move from fourth line into third line represents a transformative opportunity.

Sofia Heigis: Our submission to move from fourth line into third line represents a transformative opportunity. It can shift our indication from adult patients that are refractory to PI, IMiD, and anti-CD38 monoclonal antibody up to patients with at least two prior lines of therapy and only being refractory to lenalidomide and their last line of therapy. Moving one line up and removing the triple class refractory requirement allows clinicians to identify and treat patients earlier. Expanding into third-line therapy acts as a commercial and clinical multiplier, coming with the opportunity to double the target patient population in Europe. In addition, the potential to double average treatment duration based on the phase III OCEAN data. Important to note is that the established German basket model supports innovative pricing. Maybe most important, we do fulfill an unmet need with a mode of action complementary to other therapies.

Speaker #3: It can shift our indication from adult patients who are refractory to PI, IMiD, and anti-CD38 monoclonal antibody up to patients with at least two prior lines of therapy and only being refractory to lenalidomide in their last line of therapy.

Following our submission between May and July, we expect the CHMP opinion sometime between September to November.

Speaker #3: In addition, there is the potential to double average treatment duration based on the Phase 3 OCEAN data. It's important to note that the established German basket model supports innovative pricing.

Speaker #3: And maybe most important, we do fulfill an unmet need with a mode of action complementary to other therapies. Following our submission, between May and July, we expect to see HMP opinion sometime between September and November.

Sofia Heigis: Following our submission between May and July, we expect the CHMP opinion sometime between September to November. In case of a positive opinion, that can lead to an easy decision which will come +30 to 60 days after a potential positive opinion. Timing on the CHMP opinion will depend on complexity and extent of feedback from EMA. Should we gain this approval, we will submit reimbursement dossiers in our key markets as soon as administratively possible after the approval. In Germany, a company can, according to local rules, start to sell on a new indication right after reimbursement dossier has been submitted. In Italy and Spain, a price needs to be concluded for the new indication before on-label sales to third-line patients is possible. We will, of course, keep you updated on the progress. Our partnership strategy allow us to scale globally and capital efficiently.

Our partnership strategy allow us to scale globally and capital efficiently. The Salus agreement announced during Q2 covers 11 CEE countries, representing an estimated addressable market with SEK 150 million potential under current label. Just like we did a launch sequence across Europe, Salus has assessed and made a launch sequence across CEE.

Speaker #3: We will, of course, keep you updated on the progress. Our partnership strategy allows us to scale globally and in a capital-efficient manner. The Salus agreement announced during Q2 covers 11 CEE countries, representing an estimated addressable market with 150 million SEK potential under the current label.

Sofia Heigis: The Salus agreement announced during Q2 covers 11 CEE countries, representing an estimated addressable market with SEK 150 million potential under current label. Just like we did a launch sequence across Europe, Salus has assessed and made a launch sequence across CEE. Slovenia was first on that list. It is a small market, but most important from a referring pricing perspective. To achieve a list price in Slovenia already now in August confirms that Salus is a partner with the right competence and drive. Sales in Slovenia can start once a price negotiation is concluded. Regarding launch sequence in CEE, Croatia and Czech Republic are next up. In parallel with our current partnerships, we remain very engaged in active partnership discussions in Japan and in other territories. Our pipeline leverages our proprietary PDC and SPiKE platforms.

Speaker #3: Just like we did a launch sequence across Europe, Salus has assessed and made a launch sequence across CEE. Slovenia was first on that list.

Sofia Heigis: Slovenia was first on that list. It is a small market, but most important from a referring pricing perspective. To achieve a list price in Slovenia already now in August confirms that Salus is a partner with the right competence and drive. Sales in Slovenia can start once a price negotiation is concluded.

Speaker #3: Our pipeline leverages our proprietary PDC and SPIKES platforms. Key assets include OPD5, currently focused on glioblastoma; OPDC3, designed for enhanced selectivity in solid tumors; and OPSP1, a novel natural killer cell engager.

Sofia Heigis: Key assets include OPD5, currently focused on glioblastoma, OPDC3, designed for enhanced selectivity in solid tumors, and OPSP1, our novel and natural killer-cell engager. The first major obstacle in brain cancer is crossing the blood-brain barrier. Based on preclinical data, we believe we can overcome this barrier. This, however, needs to be confirmed in clinic and through our 10-patient Window of Opportunity study at Oslo University Hospital, we are using an approved PDC probe to rapidly be able to demonstrate human brain tumor penetration in a cost-efficient manner, aiming to generate the clinical validation needed for us to take the next step. We communicated the first patient into the study during Q2. The first step to allow further recruitment of patients was an assessment by the safety review committee. This is completed, and recruitment of additional patients has been initiated. We will keep you posted on the progress.

Speaker #3: This is completed, and recruitment of additional patients has been initiated. We will keep you posted on the progress. To put our glioblastoma opportunity into perspective, the current standard-of-care drug, temozolomide, is an alkylating agent.

Sofia Heigis: We will keep you posted on the progress. To put our glioblastoma opportunity into perspective, the current standard of care drug, temozolomide, is an alkylating agent. This means alkylators are today considered to be the most effective drug class to use in glioblastoma patients. Glioblastoma is a sturdy and cold tumor, and so far, for example, immunotherapy has been very difficult to get to work. Despite the treatment with temozolomide, the prognosis is poor and unmet need high, mainly due to three additional barriers.

Glioblastoma is a sturdy and cold tumor, and so far, for example, immunotherapy has been very difficult to get to work. Despite the treatment with temozolomide, the prognosis is poor and unmet need high, mainly due to three additional barriers. Poor delivery. Only around 30% of the drug crosses the blood-brain barrier and reaches the brain. Limited potency. It has relatively low cancer killing power. This is partly due to the last barrier, which is high and rapid resistance development. The tumor cells quickly adapt and learn to repair the damage temozolomide causes.

This is partly due to the last barrier, which is high and rapid resistance development. The tumor cells quickly adapt and learn to repair the damage temozolomide causes. In fact, 60% of the patients do already at diagnosis have a mutation that is supporting the tumor to repair the single-stranded DNA damage caused in the nucleus. All glioblastoma patients need new treatment options, but these patients do have a high need already in the first line.

All glioblastoma patients need new treatment options, but these patients do have a high need already in the first line. Our PDCs do kill through alkylation but is engineered to overcome all three challenges. In preclinical testing, it demonstrates 100% blood-brain barrier penetration. In vitro and in vivo trials demonstrate high glioblastoma cytotoxicity that seems to be independent of the most common mutation for DNA repair. We do believe this is due to the high blood-brain barrier penetration in combination with the dual mechanism of action, damaging DNA double-stranded in the nucleus and in the mitochondrias, allowing the PDCs to overcome resistance development.

Sofia Heigis: This makes our PDC a uniquely differentiated alkylating drug candidate designed to overcome the most common barriers and treat hard-to-reach aggressive brain tumors where other therapies fall short. If we succeed, we have the opportunity to make a huge difference for patients, which makes me excited about this program. To summarize, Q2 2026 has been marked by strong execution across all fronts, 62% revenue growth in Q2 compared to the same period last year, a strengthened cash position supporting our pathway to 2027 cash flow positivity, regulatory submission to EMA with a purpose to potentially double the number of addressable patients and increase treatment duration, strategic partnership expansion across 11 CEE markets, and clinical progress in glioblastoma, targeting a disease with a very high unmet need and a growing global market potential. Thank you for your time, and we will now open the line for questions.

Speaker #1: The next question comes from Richard Romanius from Red Eye. Please go ahead.

Speaker #2: Good morning. My first question is about the sales situation in Spain. How do you see that working out over the next part of this year?

Rickard Romanus: Good morning. My first question is about the sales situation in Spain. How do you see that working out over the next part of this year?

Richard Ramanius: Good morning. My first question is about the sales situation in Spain. How do you see that working out over the next part of this year?

Speaker #3: Good morning, Richard. So, as I said during the call, we did see a level up in Spain towards the end of the quarter. It's uncertain, to be honest, about access to HCPs in the second half of the year, because there is no clarity on whether they will start the strike again. What we do know is that there is no resolution to the issue. In terms of HCP availability during summer, that has been tough, if you read in media, etc.

Sofia Heigis: Good morning, Rickard. As I said during the call, we did see a level up in Spain towards the end of the quarter, and it is uncertain, to be honest, about access to HCPs the H2 of the year because there is no clarity on if they will start the strike again. What we do know is that there is no resolution to the issue and that in terms of HCP availability during summer, that has been tough if you read in media, et cetera. Our tactic has been to engage the top experts to ensure that even though we do not have the same access and even though the competition is fierce, they always recommend Pepaxti in the right position.

Speaker #3: Our tactic has been to engage the top experts to ensure that, even though we don't have the same access and even though the competition is fierce, they always recommend Pepaxto in the right position.

Speaker #3: And we have been working really, really hard and have had several initiatives and projects running together with all the top KOLs in Spain, and I believe that is what we are starting to see the impact of at the end of Q2.

Sofia Heigis: And we have been working really hard and had several initiatives and projects running together with all the top KOLs in Spain. I believe that is what we start to see impact of at the end of Q2. We will obviously continue, as I said, with these collaborations and these projects to ensure that we maintain the momentum we have.

Speaker #3: And we will obviously continue, as I said, with these collaborations and these projects to ensure that we maintain the momentum we have.

Speaker #2: Okay. Then I was wondering about the collaboration with Sailors Group. When do you think that can start to generate revenue?

Rickard Romanus: Okay. Then I was wondering about the collaboration with Salus Group. When do you think that can start to generate revenue?

Richard Ramanius: Okay. Then I was wondering about the collaboration with Salus Group. When do you think that can start to generate revenue?

Speaker #3: Yes. So as I said, the first milestone is to get a list price in Slovenia, because Slovenia is referencing Germany. And that means that the full region of CEE will look at the German or the Slovenian list price.

Sofia Heigis: As I said, the first milestone is to get a list price in Slovenia, because Slovenia is referencing Germany. That means that the full region of CEE will look at the German or the Slovenian list price. When it comes to launch sequence, even though Slovenia is a small market, that is also the first market where we negotiate price or where Salus will negotiate price. That process is ongoing now. It is always tricky to know exactly how it runs, because price negotiations can be unpredictable. I think it is fair to say that first sales should come sometimes in 2027.

Speaker #3: But when it comes to the launch sequence, even though Slovenia is a small market, that is also the first market where we negotiate price, or where Saulus will negotiate price.

Speaker #3: And that process is ongoing now. It's always tricky to know exactly how it runs, because price negotiations can be unpredictable. But I think it's fair to say that first sales should come sometime in 2027.

Speaker #2: Okay, then a final question about finances, more specifically operating costs. Those came in about on trend, as I saw in the graph. Should we expect them to decline a bit towards trending lower in the next quarters this year?

Rickard Romanus: Okay. Then a final question about finances and more specifically operating costs, which came in above trend as I saw in the graph. Should we expect them to decline a bit towards trend in the next quarters this year?

Richard Ramanius: Okay. Then a final question about finances and more specifically operating costs, which came in above trend as I saw in the graph. Should we expect them to decline a bit towards trend in the next quarters this year?

Speaker #4: Yes, good morning, Richard, and thank you for that question. What we have communicated earlier is that we expect the full-year operating expenses to be in the vicinity of what we had for 2025, i.e., around SEK 300 million.

Henrik Bergentoft: Yes. Good morning, Rickard, and thank you for that question. What we had communicated earlier is that we'd expect the full year operating expenses to be in the vicinity of what we had for 2025, i.e., around about 300 million SEK. The split between the quarters varies a little bit where typically Q2 and Q4 are more heavy weighted towards cost due to congresses. Mark that full year expense guidance from us and also mark how you can expect the quarters to vary, which also means that yes, we expect Q3 to be slightly lower than Q2.

Speaker #4: Now then, the split between the quarters varies a little bit, where typically Q2 and Q4 are more heavily weighted towards cost due to congresses.

Speaker #4: So, mark that full-year expense guidance from us, and also note how you can expect the quarters to vary. Which also means that, yes, we expect Q3 to be slightly lower than Q2.

Speaker #2: Great. Thanks for answering my questions.

Rickard Romanus: Great. Thanks for answering my questions.

Richard Ramanius: Great. Thanks for answering my questions.

Speaker #3: Thank you so much.

Sofia Heigis: Thank you so much.

Speaker #1: So I hand the conference back to the speakers for any written questions and closing comments.

Speaker #4: There are a few written questions. The first one is: Sofia, maybe elaborate a bit on the status in Japan.

Henrik Bergentoft: There is a few written questions. The first one is, Sofia, maybe elaborate a bit on the status in Japan.

[Company Representative] (Oncopeptides): There is a few written questions. The first one is, Sofia, maybe elaborate a bit on the status in Japan.

Speaker #3: Yes, so thank you for that question. When it comes to Japan, we have previously communicated that we had one specific partner to whom we gave exclusivity.

Sofia Heigis: Yes. Thank you for that question. When it comes to Japan, we have previously communicated that we had one specific partner that we gave exclusivity. We went to Japan earlier this year. We discussed with them, but we also opened up discussions with other partners because we believe there has been way too many delays in the process. Even though the partner we had selected for exclusivity still has an interest, we see further delays based on their organization and what is going on in their company, basically. As that is out of our control, we have initiated new discussions in parallel, and we have several companies that we are discussing with currently.

Speaker #3: We went to Japan earlier this year. We discussed with them, but we also opened up discussions with other partners because we believe there have been way too many delays in the process.

Speaker #3: And even though the partner we had selected for exclusivity still has an interest, we see further delays based on their organization and what's going on in their company, basically.

Speaker #3: So, as that is out of our control, we have initiated new discussions in parallel. We have several companies that we are currently discussing with, and in fact, we're going back to Japan this fall to meet with them and others, and also to continue to engage the KOLs, which is important work that is running in parallel with the partnership discussions.

Sofia Heigis: As that is out of our control, we have initiated new discussions in parallel, and we have several companies that we are discussing with currently. In fact, we are going back to Japan also this fall to meet with them, others, and also continue to engage the KOLs, which is important work that is running in parallel with the partnership discussions.

Sofia Heigis: In fact, we are going back to Japan also this fall to meet with them, others, and also continue to engage the KOLs, which is important work that is running in parallel with the partnership discussions.

Speaker #4: Okay. A question on cash flow positivity. Can you specify when in 2027 you expect positive cash flow, as communicated?

Henrik Bergentoft: Okay. A question on cash flow positivity. Can you specify when in 2027 you expect positive cash flow as communicated? Well, thank you for that question. The short answer is that we are repeating what we said. It will be during 2027. Of course, that is related to the fact that it is difficult exactly how fast sales are going to grow and in what quarter that is going to happen. So we remain on that statement that it is during 2027. We expect sales to cover operating expenses, hence having a cash flow positive business. Thank you. Greece was mentioned during our last report. What is the status there now in Q2?

[Company Representative] (Oncopeptides): Okay. A question on cash flow positivity. Can you specify when in 2027 you expect positive cash flow as communicated?

Speaker #2: Well, thank you for that question. I mean, the short answer is that we are repeating what we said—it'll be during 2027. Of course, that is related to the fact that it is difficult to know exactly how fast sales are going to grow and in which quarter that's going to happen.

Henrik Bergentoft: Well, thank you for that question. The short answer is that we are repeating what we said. It will be during 2027.

Speaker #2: So, we remain on that statement—that it is during 2027 we expect sales to cover operating expenses, hence having a cash-flow positive business.

Speaker #4: Thank you. Greece was mentioned during our last report. What's the status there now in Q2?

[Company Representative] (Oncopeptides): Thank you. Greece was mentioned during our last report. What is the status there now in Q2?

Speaker #3: Yes. So, as I mentioned, the contribution in the second quarter actually did only come from our key markets. Putting the growth into perspective, we did have some catch up in Q1 from Q4.

Sofia Heigis: Yeah. As I mentioned, the contribution in Q2 actually did only come from our key markets. Putting the growth into perspective, we did have some catch up in Q1 from Q4. I would like to come back to the type of sales we have in Greece. It is an authority ordering, and they are highly dependent on, of course, identification of patients. The patient identification is according to our partner, running smoothly. Greece is a small market and we are capturing almost the patients that we can capture as is now. The authority have different budget constraints. We of course expected to get some orders in Q2, but they got budget restrictions and reshuffled the stock across the country, which meant that Greece actually did not contribute at all in Q2.

Speaker #3: And I would like to come back to the type of sales we have in Greece. It is an authority ordering, and they are highly dependent on, of course, identification of patients. The patient identification is, according to our partner, running smoothly.

Of course, putting the growth into perspective because it only comes from our key markets which I see is a strength in a way.

Speaker #3: Of course, putting the growth into perspective, because it only comes from our key markets, which I see as a strength in a way.

Sofia Heigis: Of course, putting the growth into perspective because it only comes from our key markets which I see is a strength in a way.

Speaker #4: Yes, interesting focus on the US. Is that not a focus anymore at the moment?

Henrik Bergentoft: Shifting focus to the US, is that not a focus anymore at the moment?

[Company Representative] (Oncopeptides): Shifting focus to the US, is that not a focus anymore at the moment?

Speaker #3: So, currently, we are not focusing on the US market. Maybe a bit of history here: we did have a quite lengthy process where we were in discussions with the FDA. At the end of the day...

Sofia Heigis: Currently we are not focusing on the US market. Maybe a bit of history here. We did have a quite lengthy process where we were in discussions with the FDA. At the end of the day, they concluded to pull the accelerated approval based on that we had this in a different target population than we got approved in EMA and the target population that the OCEAN study confirmed. For now, what we have been doing is exploring partnerships from the US partly. But we have not a great focus on the US as we do believe there is a quite long way to that market, and we do believe that the European commercialization is more prioritized as well as concluding a partnership in Japan, where we do know that the regulatory authorities have quite small requirements for us to get an approval.

Speaker #3: They concluded to pull the accelerated approval based on the fact that we had it in a different target population than what we got approved in the EMA and the target population that the OCEAN study confirmed.

Speaker #3: So for now, what we have been doing is exploring partnerships in the US, partly. But we have not had as great a focus on the US, as we do believe there is quite a long way to go in that market, and we do believe that European commercialization is more prioritized, as well as concluding a partnership in Japan.

Sofia Heigis: But we have not a great focus on the US as we do believe there is a quite long way to that market, and we do believe that the European commercialization is more prioritized as well as concluding a partnership in Japan, where we do know that the regulatory authorities have quite small requirements for us to get an approval.

Speaker #3: Where we do know that the regulatory authorities have quite small requirements for us to get an approval.

Speaker #4: Last question. Can you say something about Q3?

[Company Representative] (Oncopeptides): Last question. Can you say something about Q3?

Speaker #3: So I would like to refrain from commenting on the current quarter, as we always do. Q3 ordering dynamic is always a bit strange.

Sofia Heigis: I would like to refrain from commenting on the current quarter as we always do. Q3 ordering dynamic is always a bit strange. Even if I would have wanted to comment on a quarter, Q3 is not the right quarter to comment on because due to the vacation period of both HCPs and patients and staff, the orders come a bit uneven during the quarter. We will get back to that once we announce the Q3 results.

Speaker #3: So even if I would have wanted to comment on the quarter, Q3 is not the right quarter to comment on, because due to the vacation period of both HCPs and patients and staff, the orders come a bit uneven during the quarter.

Speaker #3: So, we will get back to that once we announce the Q3 results.

Speaker #4: And that's all the questions we had. Thank you, Sofia. And maybe some final conclusions from you?

[Company Representative] (Oncopeptides): That is all the questions we had. Thank you, Sofia, and maybe some final conclusions from you.

Speaker #3: Thank you so much. Thanks to everyone that has listened in and participated today. We at Oncopeptides are excited about our commercial and clinical momentum, and we are really looking forward to keeping you updated on our continued progress during Q3.

Sofia Heigis: Thank you so much. Thanks to everyone that has listened in and participating today. We at Oncopeptides are excited about our commercial and clinical momentum, and we are really looking forward to keep you updated on our continued progress during Q3. By that, I wish you a nice day.

Speaker #3: And by that, I wish you a nice day.
