Speaker #3: Thanks, Jason, and good morning, everyone. We're delighted to share our business results and clinical progress with you today. One year ago, we launched Eutrepia and believed the medical community would find value in our differentiated approach to inhaled triphosphonil.

Roger Jeffs: Thanks, Jason, and good morning, everyone. We are delighted to share our business results and clinical progress with you today. One year ago, we launched YUTREPIA and believed the medical community would find value in our differentiated approach to inhaled treprostinil. One year later, we have the answer. Physicians are prescribing it, patients are starting to switch to it, and referrals and starts continue to accrue at a robust and sustained pace. As you saw in our numbers this morning, as of 31 July, we have received approximately 5,900 unique patient prescriptions, started more than 5,000 patients on therapy, and had more than 1,100 physicians write for the product. 30% of those physicians have prescribed to five or more patients. What is especially notable is where that growth is coming from.

Speaker #3: One year later, we have the answer: physicians are prescribing it, patients are starting to switch to it, and referrals and starts continue to accrue at a robust and sustained pace.

Speaker #3: As you saw in our numbers this morning, as of July 31, we have received approximately 5,900 unique patient prescriptions, started more than 5,000 patients on therapy, and had more than 1,100 physicians write for the product.

Speaker #3: Thirty percent of those physicians have prescribed to five or more patients. What's especially notable is where that growth is coming from. The overall inhaled prostacyclin market grew again this quarter from $573 million in Q1 to $607 million in Q2, or approximately 6 percent.

Roger Jeffs: The overall inhaled prostacyclin market grew again this quarter from $573 million in Q1 to $607 million in Q2, or approximately 6%. YUTREPIA's growth alone was larger than the growth of the entire category, even as we saw flat to declining use of oral, infused, and competing inhaled formulations. That tells us something important. Not only are the numbers of new starts for inhaled treprostinil growing, YUTREPIA has taken an ever-growing share of the total market for inhaled treprostinil. On a net revenue basis, YUTREPIA is approaching 30% of the entire inhaled market, a tremendous result just over a year into launch, especially as the market is growing in concert with YUTREPIA's growth. This implies the majority of new patient starts are coming to YUTREPIA. What matters more than the numbers is the impact we're seeing in patient lives.

Speaker #3: And Eutrepia's growth alone was larger than the growth of the entire category. Even as we saw flat to declining use of oral infused and competing inhaled formulations.

Speaker #3: That tells us something important: not only are the numbers of new starts for inhaled triphosphonil growing, Eutrepia has taken an ever-growing share of the total market for inhaled triphosphonil.

Speaker #3: This implies the majority of new patient starts are coming to Eutrepia. What matters more than the numbers is the impact we're seeing in patient lives.

Speaker #3: I spent my career in this field and have watched the delivery of process cycles move from complex IV and subcutaneous infusion to cumbersome nebulized therapy, to intolerable oral formulations, and now to inhaled dry powder delivery.

Roger Jeffs: I spent my career in this field, and I've watched the delivery of prostacyclin move from complex IV and subcutaneous infusion to cumbersome nebulized therapy to intolerable oral formulations, and now to inhaled dry powder delivery. Across that history, one simplistic but guiding principle has remained constant. Better tolerability enables higher dosing. Higher dosing can drive a greater efficacy, and greater efficacy can support durable clinical benefit. The linchpin in this therapeutic chain is solving first and foremost for tolerability, as the ability to drive dose and improve symptoms while minimizing both off and on-target adverse events is the Holy Grail. That's the lesson I've learned from my 30-plus years in the field, and to me, explains why YUTREPIA has had such broad adoption and early commercial success to date, as it offers all of these attributes.

Speaker #3: That's the lesson I've learned from my 30-plus years in the field, and to me, explains why Eutrepia has had such broad adoption and early commercial success to date as it offers all of these attributes.

Speaker #3: This critical link between tolerability, dose, and efficacy was beautifully demonstrated in our 24-week Ascent Study in PHLD patients. Specifically, progressively higher median doses of Eutrepia at weeks 8, 16, and 24 was accompanied by progressive improvements in 6-minute walk distance of 21.5, 31.5, and 41 meters, respectively, without worsening cough scores.

Roger Jeffs: This critical link between tolerability, dose, and efficacy was beautifully demonstrated in our 24-week ASCEND study in PH-ILD patients. Specifically, progressively higher median doses of YUTREPIA at weeks 8, 16, and 24 was accompanied by progressive improvements in six-minute walk distance of 21.5, 31.5, and 41 meters respectively, without worsening cough scores. The only caveat is that YUTREPIA requires a four-times-daily dose regimen, which is why we are going from strength to strength and aggressively building on these same principles with twice-daily L606, which we believe has the potential to raise the tolerability bar even further. As we've previously shown in our 48-week open label study, L606 patients titrated across a broad range while incurring a low burden of adverse events. Most notably, the lowest incidence of cough we are aware of in any study of an inhaled treprostinil formulation.

Speaker #3: As we've previously shown, in our 48-week open label study, L606 patients titrated across a broad range while incurring a low burden of adverse events.

Speaker #3: Most notably, the lowest incidence of cough we are aware of in any study of an inhaled triphosphonil formulation, and we were able to observe enduring clinical benefit as peak 6-minute walk improvements were preserved at trough or said another way, throughout the dosing interval.

Roger Jeffs: We were able to observe enduring clinical benefit as peak six-minute walk improvements were preserved at trough, or said another way, throughout the dosing interval. These results are especially impressive when you consider that patients enrolled reflected the prevalent population in the US and were on combinatory background standard of care. We are not aware of any other product in clinical development that has matched the dose range, tolerability, and durability that we have already seen with L606. We believe YUTREPIA and L606 have significantly raised the bar that every current and future product in this space will be measured against. It is with this confidence that we've stood up a thoughtful R&D plan to best elucidate the current and future uses of inhaled treprostinil across a wide array of indications.

Speaker #3: We believe Eutrepia and L606 have significantly raised the bar that every current and future product in this space will be measured against. And it is with this confidence that we've stood up a thoughtful R&D plan to best elucidate the current and future uses of inhaled triphosphonil across a wide array of indications, in fact, between Eutrepia and L606, we now have 10 clinical studies either underway or planned to begin over the next 12 months.

Roger Jeffs: In fact, between YUTREPIA and L606, we now have 10 clinical studies either underway or planned to begin over the next 12 months. As Mike will explain, we can confidently make these investments because of the cash flow that this business now generates. With that, I will turn it over to Mike.

Speaker #3: And as Mike will explain, we can confidently make these investments because of the cash flow that this business now generates. With that, I'll turn it over to Mike.

Speaker #2: Thank you, Roger, and good morning, everyone. I'm pleased to say the second quarter of financial performance continued to reflect the growth trajectory for Eutrepia we've described to date.

Michael Kaseta: Thank you, Roger, and good morning, everyone. I am pleased to say the Q2 financial performance continued to reflect the growth trajectory for YUTREPIA we have described to date. Quarterly sales of YUTREPIA have more than tripled over the last three quarters, and we have gone from reporting a net loss in Q2 2025 to four consecutive quarters of increasing profitability. Looking specifically at the Q2 2026, net product sales of YUTREPIA were $170.4 million, up over $40 million or 31% quarter-over-quarter. Net income increased to approximately $74.7 million, and non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA increased to approximately $96.3 million. Turning to cash, we entered the quarter with approximately $284.2 million in cash and cash equivalents, up $61.4 million from the Q1 and nearly $93.5 million since the start of the year.

Speaker #2: Quarterly sales of Eutrepia have more than tripled over the last three quarters, and we've gone from reporting a net loss in Q2 2025 to four consecutive quarters of increasing profitability.

Speaker #2: Looking specifically at the second quarter of 2026, net product sales of Eutrepia were $170.4 million, up over $40 million or 31 percent quarter over quarter.

Speaker #2: Net income increased to approximately $74.7 million, and non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA increased to approximately $96.3 million. Turning to cash, we entered the quarter with approximately $284.2 million in cash and cash equivalents, up $61.4 million from the first quarter, and nearly $93.5 million since the start of the year.

Speaker #2: A clear sign how we are seeing the operating leverage inherent in our business flow through to the balance sheet. I'd also like to note a few other financial metrics.

Michael Kaseta: A clear sign how we are seeing the operating leverage inherent in our business flow through to the balance sheet. I would also like to note a few other financial metrics. As we had previously forecasted to you, R&D and SG&A expenses both increased this quarter to support continued investment in our pipeline and the ongoing commercialization of YUTREPIA, which includes the expanded sales team that hit the field in June and additional patient support services. Going forward, I would note these two lines will behave differently. SG&A will increase as we scale commercially with certain components moving in proportion to revenue. We also expect R&D to increase in the coming quarters as enrollment ramps up in Re-Spire and we initiate multiple studies to inform the current and future use of YUTREPIA.

Speaker #2: As we had previously forecasted to you, R&D and SG&A expenses, both increased this quarter to support continued investment in our pipeline and the ongoing commercialization of Eutrepia.

Speaker #2: This includes the expanded sales team that hit the field in June and additional patient support services. Going forward, I'd note these two lines will behave differently.

Speaker #2: SG&A will increase as we scale commercially, with certain components moving in proportion to revenue. We also expect R&D to increase in the coming quarters as enrollment ramps up in RESPire and we initiate multiple studies to inform the current and future use of Eutrepiya.

Speaker #2: More specifically, we expect R&D expense in the second half of 2026 to be double the expense in the first half of the year, and to increase again in 2027 as we build the best inhaled treprostinil products for future and current patients.

Michael Kaseta: More specifically, we expect R&D expense in the H2 2026 to be double the expense in the H1 of the year and to increase again in 2027 as we build the best inhaled treprostinil products for future and current patients. In closing, we expect to continue to grow revenue consistent with quarterly growth we have observed to date, increase our investment in our pipeline, and even with that investment, continue to grow profitability at the same time. We have a commercial product that generates significant cash flow and a clear set of priorities for where we will invest it. With that, Roger, back to you.

Speaker #2: In closing, we expect to continue to grow revenue consistent with quarterly growth we've observed to date, increase our investment in our pipeline, and even with that investment, continue to grow profitability at the same time.

Speaker #2: We have a commercial product that generates significant cash flow, and a clear set of priorities for where we will invest it. With that, Roger, back to you.

Speaker #3: Thanks, Mike, for that summary. These results give us confidence that we're well on our way to more than a billion dollars in net revenue in 2027, and just as importantly, confidence that we're building the right foundation for the next decade of this franchise.

Roger Jeffs: Thanks, Mike, for that summary. These results give us confidence that we are well on our way to more than $1 billion in net revenue in 2027, and just as importantly, confidence that we are building the right foundation for the next decade of this franchise. We look forward to updating you on our progress in the quarters ahead. With that, operator, please open the line for questions.

Speaker #3: We look forward to updating you on our progress in the quarters ahead. With that, operator, please open the line for questions.

Speaker #1: Thank you. We will now begin the question-and-answer session. To ask a question, please press star, 11, on your telephone, and wait for your name to be announced.

Operator: Thank you. We will now begin the question and answer session. To ask a question, please press star 11 on your telephone and wait for your name to be announced. To withdraw your question, please press star 11 again. Please stand by while we compile the Q&A roster. Our first question comes from Amy Li with Jefferies. Your line is open.

Speaker #1: To withdraw your question, please press star, 11, again. Please stand by while we compile the Q&A roster. And our first question comes from Amy Lee with Jefferies.

Speaker #1: Your line is open.

Speaker #4: Hey. Thanks for taking our question, and congrats on all the continued momentum. I just wanted to start with two non-launch-related questions. The first one, on your 75-patient rewarm Raynaud study, what efficacy signal would you need to see the move this directly into a registrational trial, and how should we think about the design in that context?

Amy Li: Hey, thanks for taking our question and congrats on all the continued momentum. I just wanted to start with two non-launch related questions. The first one, on your 75-patient REWARM Raynaud study, what efficacy signal would you need to see to move this directly into a registrational trial? How should we think about the design in that context? Was the low dose arm primarily driven by tolerability considerations in this population, or is there a reason to believe that the efficacy threshold in Raynaud's may be below the dose needed than PAH and PH-ILD? Then finally, on L606, you suggested that the competitive advantage is not just the BID dosing, but also the combination of exposure and tolerability. So what evidence have you seen that higher achievable exposure and 24-hour coverage could translate to a clinically meaningful advantage compared to other long-acting inhaled treprostinil approaches?

Speaker #4: Was the low-dose arm primarily driven by tolerability considerations in this population, or is there a reason to believe that the efficacy threshold in Raynaud's may be below the dose-needed than PAH and PHALD?

Speaker #4: And then finally, on L606, you've suggested that the competitive advantage isn't just the BID dosing, but also the combination of exposure and tolerability. So what evidence have you seen that higher achievable exposure in 24-hour coverage could translate to a clinically meaningful advantage compared to other long-acting inhaled triphosphonil approaches?

Speaker #4: And what should we look for in the phase three to validate that thesis? Thanks so much.

Amy Li: What should we look for in the Phase III to validate that thesis? Thanks so much.

Speaker #3: Hi, Amy. Good morning. Thank you very much for the question. For the rewarm study on efficacy and dose, I'll ask Rajeev to answer that, and then I'll answer the question around L606 and more how we're thinking about that from a dose comparison versus anything else.

Roger Jeffs: Hi, Amy. Good morning. Thank you very much for the question. For the REWARM study on efficacy and dose, I will ask Rajeev to answer that, and then I will answer the question around L606 and more how we are thinking about that from a dose comparison versus anything else. Rajeev, could you talk about the REWARM study, please?

Speaker #3: So Rajeev, if you could talk about the rewarm study, please.

Speaker #5: Sure. Thanks, Roger. And thanks, Amy, for the question. So maybe just to step back, the rewarm study is going to be evaluating patients with systemic sclerosis-associated with Raynaud's phenomenon.

Rajeev Saggar: Sure. Thanks, Roger, and thanks, Amy, for the question. Maybe just to step back, the REWARM study is going to be evaluating patients with systemic sclerosis associated with Raynaud's phenomenon. Just for many that do not know, systemic sclerosis, of course, is a very rare autoimmune disease in which Raynaud's phenomenon effectively manifests in around 90% of those patients. Consistent with other conditions that affect our scleropathy and systemic sclerosis such as PAH and PH-ILD, Raynaud's is also a vasculopathy of the small digits, usually of the bilateral hands in nature. What is really interesting about this condition is that there are no FDA-approved therapies. However, there is plenty, decades of experience with prostacyclin and prostacyclin analogues that have been studied in this condition, including treprostinil, and many of those are actually used off-label to treat the moderate and severe complications of Raynaud's that manifest. These are life-saving therapies.

Speaker #5: Just for many that don't know, systemic sclerosis, of course, is a very rare autoimmune disease, in which Raynaud's phenomenon affects the manifests in around 90 percent of those patients.

Speaker #5: And consistent with other conditions, that affect arteriopathy and systemic sclerosis, such as PAH and PHALD, Raynaud's is also a vasculopathy of the small digits, usually of the bilateral hands in nature.

Speaker #5: What's really interesting about these conditions is that there's no FDA-approved therapies, however, there's plenty, decades of experience with prostocyclin and prostocyclin analogs that have been studied in this condition, including triphosphonil, and many of those are actually used off-label to treat the moderate and severe complications of Raynaud's that manifest.

Speaker #5: So these are life-saving therapies. One of the challenges with studies that have used prostocyclins is the tolerability of those very medications including parenteral and oral prostocyclins, which in those studies have been limited by dose tolerability issues.

Rajeev Saggar: One of the challenges with studies that have used prostacyclins is the tolerability of those very medications including parenteral and oral prostacyclins, which in those studies have been limited by dose tolerability issues. The purpose of REWARM, first and foremost, is to evaluate the typical doses that we use in YUTREPIA in both PAH and in PH-ILD, and to assess the tolerability profile. At the same time, we compare it against the lowest dose versus maximizing the dose titration of YUTREPIA in the study and seeing what is the clinical response to those doses. That will inform us of how to appropriately lead into the phase III study, depending on the results that we see. But we have a high, strong clinical suspicion that we anticipate that a very similar dosing profile will be used eventually in the management of systemic sclerosis associated with Raynaud's phenomenon.

Speaker #5: So the purpose of rewarm first and foremost is to evaluate the typical doses that we use in Eutrepia in both PAH and in PHALD, and to assess the tolerability profile at the same time we compare it against the lowest dose versus maximizing the dose titration of Eutrepia in the study, and seeing what is the clinical response to those doses that will inform us of how to appropriately lead into the phase three study, depending on the results that we see.

Speaker #5: But we have a high, strong clinical suspicion that we anticipate a very similar dosing profile will eventually be used in the management of systemic sclerosis associated with Raynaud's phenomenon.

Speaker #5: Great.

Roger Jeffs: Great. Thank you, Rajeev, on that. Amy, maybe what I will do is go back to the script a little bit when we make comparisons to tTip, and that it is, again, it is tolerability drives dose, price and specific efficacy drives durability, and the linchpin being tolerability. The only way to make comparisons is to sort of match on dose equivalents. Typically, that has been done today through labeling with YUTREPIA, for example, through breath equivalents to TYVASO and TYVASO DPI. Maybe just to clarify, because I think there might be some confusion in the field around tTip dosing in particular. If you look at tTip, if you took the 640 microgram dose, really only 64% of that is treprostinil mass because the 16 chain palmitoyl lipophilic carbon chain contributes about 35% of the mass.

Speaker #3: Thank you, Rajeev, on that. So Amy, maybe what I'll do is kind of go back to the script a little bit when we make comparisons to TPIP.

Speaker #3: And that it's, again, it's tolerability versus dose specific and efficacy drives durability and the linchpin being tolerability. And the only way to kind of make comparisons is to sort of match on dose equivalence.

Speaker #3: And typically, that's been done to date through labeling with Eutrepia, for example, through breath equivalence to Tyvaso and Tyvaso DPI. So maybe just to clarify, because I think there might be some confusion in the field around TPIP dosing in particular.

Speaker #3: So if you look at TPIP, if you took the 640-microgram dose, really only 64 percent of that is treprostinil mass, because the 16-chain polymethyl lipophilic carbon chain contributes about 30 percent of the mass.

Speaker #3: And then there's about an 85 percent emitted dose from the capsule. So you have to subtract that as well. So when you look at the 640, and we know that one breath of Tyvaso is 6 micrograms, so 15 breaths would be 90 micrograms.

Roger Jeffs: There is about an 85% admitted dose from the capsule, so you have to subtract that as well. When you look at the 640, and we know that one breath of TYVASO is 6 micrograms, so 15 breaths would be 90 micrograms. The 640 essentially, if you do the 640 times 0.64 times 0.85, you get to just about 90 equivalent, 90 micrograms or 15 breath equivalents. So that is what they are delivering with the 640, and the 1,280 obviously would be twice that, or 30 breath equivalents. When you look at L606 15 breath equivalents. And above that would be more. When you then make a comparison for R210, 15 breath equivalents in our open label study, 21% of patients had a, I am sorry. 71% of patients had a 15 breath equivalents or more, and 21% of patients had 30 breath equivalents or more.

Speaker #3: The 640 essentially, if you do the 640 times 0.64 times 0.85, you get just about 90 equivalent. 90, 90 micrograms for 15 breath equivalents.

Speaker #3: So that's what they're delivering with the 640, and then the 1280 obviously be twice that or 30 breath equivalents. Now, when you look at L606, comparable to 15 breath equivalents, and then above that would be more.

Speaker #3: So when you then make a comparison for R210, 15 breath equivalents and R open label study, 21 percent of patients had a I'm sorry, 71 percent of patients had a 15 breath equivalents or more, and 21 percent of patients had 30 breath equivalents or more.

Speaker #3: So how does that compare to TPIP? Well, they only had 21 percent above 640, or 15 breath equivalents, and only 8 percent reached 1,280, or 30 percent equivalents.

Roger Jeffs: How does that compare to tTip? Well, they only had 21% above 640 or 15 breath equivalents, and only 8% reached 1,280 or 30 equivalents. Significantly lower dose attainment on a percentage basis between the two trials. Now I am making cross-study comparisons, and it is difficult, and I think it is probably inappropriate in particular to talk about efficacy comparisons, because the efficacy is going to be driven by the sample that you are studying and what the selection bias is. Obviously, as we said, ours was a prevalent population in the US who had transitioned essentially from TYVASO or TYVASO DPI versus theirs, which was ex-US studies, perhaps not on background therapy and with a lower baseline walk. So those comparisons get complicated.

Speaker #3: So significantly lower dose attainment on a percentage basis, between the two trials. Now, I'm making cross-study comparisons, and it's difficult, and I think it's probably inappropriate in particular to talk about efficacy comparisons, because the efficacy is going to be driven by the sample that you're studying and what the selection bias is, and obviously, as we said, ours was a prevalent population in the US who had transitioned essentially from Tyvaso or Tyvaso DPI versus theirs, which was XUS studies perhaps not on background therapy and with a lower baseline walk.

Speaker #3: So those comparisons get complicated. But I think if you believe the paradigm, that tolerability drives dose, then what you can see with L606 is that we've already shown a favorable profile vis-à-vis TPIP.

Roger Jeffs: But I think if you believe the paradigm that tolerability drives dose, then what you can see with L606 is that we have already shown a favorable profile vis-a-vis T-deb, and the rest will sort itself out. Because as you achieve dose, you will get effect, and as you achieve that effect, you will get durability. So we feel very confident that L606 is extremely well-positioned in our Phase III Re-Spire trial to be successful and actually be incrementally enhanced compared to Cotadetin in development. So that is how we look at at least for today. And certainly, I do not want to make any performative statements around how we will share market or not until we get the Phase III results. But I think, again, we feel very confident about what we are building and very happy that the Phase III Re-Spire study is already enrolling patients and on target to meet its timeline.

Speaker #3: And the rest will sort itself out, because as you achieve dose, you will get effect, and as you achieve effect, you will get durability.

Speaker #3: So we feel very confident that L606 is extremely well-positioned in our phase three respiratory trial, to be successful, and actually be incrementally enhancing their competitiveness in development.

Speaker #3: So that's kind of how we look from the ability standpoint, at least for today. And certainly, I don't want to make any performative statements around kind of how we'll share market or not until we get the phase three results, but I think, again, we feel very confident about what we're building and very happy that the phase three respiratory study is already enrolling patients in on target to meet its timeline.

Roger Jeffs: Next question, please.

Speaker #3: So next question, please.

Speaker #1: Thank you. Our next question comes from Julian Harrison with BTIG. Your line is open.

Operator: Thank you. Our next question comes from Julian Harrison with BTIG. Your line is open.

Speaker #5: Hi, good morning. Congratulations on the progress, and thanks for taking the questions. I have three, and I'll just ask them all at once. First, considering your recently expanded Salesforce, I'm wondering how you're thinking about the balance between deepening relationships with existing prescribers of Eutrepia versus expanding your prescriber base going forward.

Julian Harrison: Hi, good morning. Congrats on the progress and thanks for taking the questions. I have three, and I will just ask them all at once. First, considering your recently expanded sales force, I am wondering how you are thinking about the balance between deepening relationships with existing prescribers of YUTREPIA versus expanding your prescriber base going forward. Second, with a little more than a year into YUTREPIA's launch, can you give us an update on where payer coverage stands? I am wondering if you are satisfied where access is today and if there are any remaining gaps or hurdles that when resolved could maybe even accelerate growth further. Third, maybe a refresher type of question, but can you walk us through the range of outcomes you are prepared for in the '327 patent trial and do you have any updated expectations in the timing of decisions there?

Speaker #5: Second, with a little more than a year into Eutrepia's launch, can you give us an update on where payer coverage stands? I'm wondering if you're satisfied with where access is today, and if there are any remaining gaps or hurdles that, when resolved, could maybe even accelerate growth further.

Speaker #5: Third, can you maybe refresh your type of question, but can you walk us through the range of outcomes you're prepared for in the three to seven trial?

Speaker #5: And do you have any updated expectations in the timing of decisions there?

Speaker #3: Great. Good to hear from you, Julian. Good morning. So Scott, if you wouldn't mind asking kind of your view on the Salesforce expansion, and where we're currently with payer coverage, and then Rusty, if you'll update on legal.

Roger Jeffs: Great. Good to hear from you, Julian. Good morning. Scott, if you would not mind asking kind of your view on the sales force expansion and where we currently are with payer coverage, and then Rusty, if you will update on legal.

Speaker #2: Yeah, good morning. Hi, Julian. So on the Salesforce expansion, I think the good news is we have a lot of opportunity both on the existing customer front as well as the expanding front, as you phrased it, Julian.

Scott Moomaw: Yeah, good morning. Hi, Julian. On the sales force expansion, I think the good news is we have a lot of opportunity both on the existing customer front as well as the expanding front, as you phrased it, Julian. We will be able to get more visits, more frequency, if you will, on the current customers. And we will be able to get deeper in the community, which is sort of our stated intent of doing the expansion. When you look at PAH centers, we still feel like we have an amazing amount of opportunity there to get in front of the oral prostacyclins and the inhaled prostacyclins to be the first PAH prostacyclin of choice. In the PH-ILD centers, there is both opportunity to get in front of the other inhaled prostacyclins and also patient identification.

Speaker #2: So we will be able to get more visits, more frequency, if you will, on the current customers and we will be able to get deeper in the community, which is sort of our stated intent of doing the expansion.

Speaker #2: So when you look at PAH centers, we still feel like we have an amazing amount of opportunity there to get in front of the oral process cyclones and the inhaled process cyclones to be the first PAH process cyclone of choice.

Speaker #2: In the PHILD centers, there is both opportunity to get in front of the other inhaled process cyclones and also patient identification. We still feel like those even the academic PHILD centers can do a better job of diagnosing the patients and then finally is the community which was, as I mentioned, one of the main reasons we did the expansion and this enables us to get further out into the community deeper where we know many of the 60,000 patients are.

Scott Moomaw: We still feel like those, even the academic PH-ILD centers can do a better job of diagnosing the patients. Then finally is the community, which was, as I mentioned, one of the main reasons we did the expansion. This enables us to get further out into the community deeper where we know many of these 60,000 patients are. They just need to be identified, and usually referred, but if they will diagnose them and treat them in that venue, then that's great as well. I think the answer is nice, which is that we have opportunities on both fronts. From the payer perspective, I think we feel good where we are. I think we've reached sort of a stasis. We have, I would say, very good availability across the board.

Speaker #2: They just need to be identified and usually referred, but if they will diagnose them and treat them in that venue, then that's great as well.

Speaker #2: So I think the answer is nice, which is that we have opportunities on both fronts. From the payer perspective, I think we feel good where we are.

Speaker #2: I think we've reached sort of a stasis. We have, I would say, very good availability across the board. I would say we are generally at parity across the board, and therefore, it just comes down to product choice.

Scott Moomaw: I would say we are generally at parity across the board, and therefore, it just comes down to product choice. As you can see from our numbers, and the revenue growth, we feel like folks are taking advantage of that product choice and choosing YUTREPIA. Thanks, Julian.

Speaker #2: And as you can see from our numbers and the revenue growth, we feel like folks are taking advantage of that product choice and choosing Eutrepia.

Speaker #2: So thanks, Julian.

Operator: Thank you. Our next question comes from Ben Burnett with Wells Fargo. Your line is open.

Speaker #1: Thank you. Our next question comes from Ben Burnett with Wells Fargo. Your line is open.

Speaker #6: Hi, hello. This is Tian Xi calling in for Ben. Congratulations on a quarter. So I have a question regarding the new patient ads. So based on our back of the envelope math, your new patients add during this period is still showing a about middle finger digit acceleration versus last period.

[Analyst] (Wells Fargo): Hi. Hello. This is Tianxi calling in for Ben. Congratulations on the quarter. I have a question regarding the new patient adds. Based on our back of the envelope maths, your new patient add during this period is still showing about middle single digit acceleration versus last period. Just thinking about for the remainder of the year, how should that growth trend for the rest of the year, and where do you see it kind of it lands over the long term? Thank you.

Speaker #6: So just thinking about for the remainder of the year, how should that growth trend for the rest of the year? And where do you see kind of it lands over the long term?

Speaker #6: Thank you.

Speaker #3: Yeah, I appreciate the question. Maybe first, Rusty, if you could answer Julian's question around the three to seven update, and then Mike, if you'll talk about patient numbers going forward.

Roger Jeffs: Yeah, appreciate the question. Maybe first, Rusty, if you could answer Julian's question around the '327 patent trial update, and then Mike, if you will talk about patient numbers going forward.

Speaker #2: Sure, happy to, and thanks for the question, Julian. So that's the two questions you asked me. First is the range of outcomes—no change there.

Rusty Schundler: Sure. Happy to. Thanks for the question, Julian. As the two questions you asked me, first is the range of outcomes. No change there. It is the same things we have been talking about for over a year now. Obviously in the upside scenario where we went on all claims, we continued forward as is, unimpeded.

Speaker #2: It's the same things we've been talking about for over a year now. Obviously, on the upside scenario where we went on all claims, we continued forward as is.

Speaker #2: Unimpeded. If the ruling goes against us, it's the full range of outcomes we've been talking about in the past. It could be a royalty, could be some form of adjunctive relief.

Rusty Schundler: If the ruling goes against us, full range of outcomes we have been talking about in the past. Could be a royalty, could be some form of injunctive relief. Again, no change on that front. We do not know. We do not have any visibility into what Judge Andrews' workload is, where he is in his process. I think looking at past data as to how long it typically has taken Judge Andrews to get to decisions following a bench trial, I would say our expectation is we could see a decision any day now. Again, it is hard for us to provide much more color than that just because we do not have visibility into this process. Thanks.

Speaker #2: So again, no change on that front. We don't know. We don't have any visibility into what the judge's workload is, where he is in sort of his process.

Speaker #2: I think looking at past data as to how long it typically has taken Judge Andrews to get to decisions following a bench trial, I'd say our expectation is we could see a decision any day now.

Speaker #2: But again, it's hard for us to provide much more color than that just because we don't have visibility into this process. Thanks.

Speaker #3: Yeah, and I would add that nothing has changed in our confidence based on the probability of success and the arguments that we made in court.

Roger Jeffs: Yeah, I would add that nothing has changed in our confidence based on the probability of success and the arguments that we made in court. Mike, if you want to talk about how we look at patient adds going forward and the implications that may have for down the road?

Speaker #3: So Mike, if you want to talk about kind of how we look at patient ads going forward and may implications that may have for down the road.

Speaker #1: Yeah, thanks, Roger. And thanks for the question. What we've seen since launch is really a linear trajectory of referrals and new patient starts really since the beginning of the launch last June.

Michael Kaseta: Yeah. Thanks, Roger, and thanks for the question. What we've seen since launch is really a linear trajectory of referrals and new patient starts really since the beginning of the launch last June. So we're very confident in what we're doing. As Scott had spoken earlier, increasing the size of our sales force, looking to increase our patient support services. We feel very confident that we can stay on the same trajectory that we're on right now. Roger has said in the prepared statements that we believe we'll be more than $1 billion in sales in 2027, and we say that with confidence and believe that we will stay on this same trajectory and see significant increases as we move forward.

Speaker #1: So we're very confident in what we're doing. As Scott had spoken earlier, we're increasing the size of our Salesforce and looking to increase our patient support services.

Speaker #1: We feel very confident that we can stay on the same trajectory that we're on right now, Roger has said in the prepared statements that we believe we'll be more than a billion dollars in sales in 2027, and we say that with confidence and believe that we will stay on this same trajectory and see significant increases as we move forward.

Speaker #3: Great. Thanks, Mike. Next question up there.

Roger Jeffs: Great. Thanks, Mike. Next question, operator.

Speaker #1: Thank you. Our next question comes from Ryan Deschner with Raymond James. Your line is open.

Operator: Thank you. Our next question comes from Ryan Deschner with Raymond James. Your line is open.

Speaker #7: Hi, thanks for the question and congrats on the impressive results this quarter. Two for me. Where are you seeing the biggest areas of script growth in terms of specific patient subpopulations in both PAH and PHILD at this point?

Ryan Deschner: Hi. Thanks for the question and congrats on the impressive results this quarter. Two for me. Where are you seeing the biggest areas of script growth in terms of specific patient subpopulations in both PAH and PH-ILD at this point? And then also in one of your PAH posters this year, you cite the diverse responsibilities of pharmacists, the diverse responsibilities that they have in supporting PH patients, including assistance with transitioning patients across different prostacyclins. How have those findings changed your commercial strategy with respect to pharmacist interactions? Thanks.

Speaker #7: And then also, in one of your PHA posters this year, you cite the diverse responsibilities of pharmacists. The diverse responsibilities that they have in supporting PAH patients, including assistance with transitioning patients across different process cyclones.

Speaker #7: How have those findings changed your commercial strategy with respect to pharmacist interactions? Thanks.

Speaker #3: Yeah, great. So, Scott, I think both of those are directed to your field.

Roger Jeffs: Yeah. Great. Scott, I think both of those are directed in your field.

Speaker #2: Yeah. So in terms of the growth, I think there's kind of a short and a long-term aspect to this. The short term is we still have loads of opportunity in the centers.

Scott Moomaw: Well, in terms of the growth, I think there is a short and a long-term aspect to this. The short-term is we still have loads of opportunity in the centers where these patients are coming in today and tomorrow. I think the flywheel of YUTREPIA is turning only more strongly as time goes along and more prescribers get a chance to try it. We have many examples of when one prescriber who has tried it and really found it to be satisfying, or better, has talked to another prescriber and said, "Look, it's not the same. You really need to try this." As that flywheel turns more in the short term, those physicians who are using prostacyclins and treating PH, whether that is PAH or PH-ILD, there is a lot of opportunity there.

Speaker #2: Where these patients are, coming in, today and tomorrow, and I think the flywheel of Eutrepia is turning only more strongly as time goes along and more prescribers get a chance to try it.

Speaker #2: And so we have many examples of when one prescriber who's tried it and really found it to be satisfying has talked to better, has talked to another prescriber and said, "Look, it's not the same.

Speaker #2: You really need to try this." And so as that flywheel turns more in the short term, those physicians who are using process cyclones and treating PH, whether that's PAH or PHILD, there's a lot of opportunity there.

Speaker #2: And of course, that's those patients, as I said, are coming in right now, and so therefore the prescriber has the opportunity to make that decision today or tomorrow.

Scott Moomaw: Of course, those patients, as I said, are coming in right now, and so therefore, the prescriber has the opportunity to make that decision today or tomorrow. Longer term is what I referenced earlier, which is the patients out in the community, and that tide will raise as the education around that takes place and as we get deeper out. It is rising right now. A lot of the PH-ILD academic centers are being overwhelmed by the number of patients that are coming in from the community because there is more awareness around this. It is starting. It is happening right now, but it is going to continue to happen. On the pharmacist question, Ryan, I was not quite sure I understood it. We have a very expansive care model. We work with especially pharmacies who are high touch with the patients and in touch with the patients all the time.

Speaker #2: Longer term, is what I referenced earlier, which is the patients out in the community and that tide will raise as the education around that takes place and as we get deeper out.

Speaker #2: It is rising right now. I mean, a lot of the PHILD academic centers are being overwhelmed by the number of patients that are coming in from the community because it's becoming more there's more awareness around this.

Speaker #2: So, it's starting. It's happening right now, but it's going to continue to happen. On the pharmacist question, Ryan, I wasn't quite sure I understood it.

Speaker #2: I mean, we have a we have a very expansive care model. We work with especially pharmacies who are high touch with the patients and in touch with the patients all the time.

Scott Moomaw: One of the things we found is early on, I think they were almost, despite our trying to convince them, I think they were almost stuck in the old paradigm of tolerability and dosing. As those folks have experienced the new paradigm where the dosing and the tolerability are better leading to, as Roger mentioned, the advocacy. I think the lights have gone on there a little bit as well, and so they have become believers as well. But feel free to elaborate, Ryan, on the question if I did not get it.

Speaker #2: One of the things we found is early on, I think they were almost despite our trying to convince them, I think they were almost sort of stuck in the old paradigm of tolerability and dosing.

Speaker #2: And as those folks have experienced, the new paradigm—where the dosing and the tolerability are better, leading to, as Roger mentioned, the efficacy—I think the lights have gone on there a little bit as well.

Speaker #2: And so they've become believers as well. But feel free to elaborate, Ryan, on the question if I didn't get it.

Speaker #3: Is Scott's regieve? Maybe I can just add in something right on that particular poster. So first of all, what we've recognized in the market is that the care team that provides care to patients with group one PH and PHILD is multifactorial from the physician to the nurse practitioner and to the pharmacist and the PH coordinators.

Rajeev Saggar: It is Scott Surjeet. Maybe I can just add in something, Ryan, on that particular poster. First of all, what we have recognized in the market is that the care team that provides care to patients with Group 1 PH and PH-ILD is multifactorial, from the physician to the nurse practitioner, and to the pharmacist and the PH coordinators. I think one of the key things that we are doing on the ground is heavy education about the benefits of YUTREPIA, the ease of prescribability, and the titratability of the drug respective to both conditions. The pharmacists are, I think, critical in many of the larger programs. They help coordinate the care of the patient, they manage the side effect profile, and they also support how to titrate those patients.

Speaker #3: So I think one of the key things that we're doing on the ground is heavy education about the benefits of Eutrepia, the ease of prescribability, and the titratability of the drug, respective to both conditions.

Speaker #3: So the pharmacists are, I think, critical in many of the larger programs. They help coordinate the care of the patient, and they manage the side effect profile.

Speaker #3: And they also support how to titrate those patients. So it's a key target for us. And I think the results have spoken is what you see here today at the earnings call.

Rajeev Saggar: It is a key target for us, and I think the results have spoken is what you see here today at the earnings call. Thanks.

Speaker #3: Thanks. Yeah, I think maybe I'll just add to both of the comments. So again, I think we're taking a fulsome approach to the centers, not just the physicians, the pharmacists, but also the nurse practitioners who are critical to the therapeutic success in this category.

Roger Jeffs: Yeah, I think maybe I will just add to both of the comments. Again, I think we are taking a fulsome approach to the centers, not just the physicians, the pharmacists, but also the nurse practitioners who are critical to the therapeutic success in this category. I think one thing on the numbers, we are starting to see a shift. If you just look, and we said a little bit about this in the prepared remarks. The inhaled category is now on a run rate of $600 million. The total prostacyclin pathway is about $1.2 billion in the quarter in total. You are getting into a $5 billion market, and half of that is in the inhaled segment, which is growing. That inhale is starting to infringe on the oral and parenteral category. If you look at the oral categories between UPTRAVI and Orenitram, that is about $500 million.

Speaker #3: I think one thing, on the numbers, we're starting to see a shift. If you just look—and we said a little bit about this in the prepared remarks—the inhaled category is now at a run rate of about $600 million.

Speaker #3: The total process cycle and pathway is about 1.2 billion. So in the quarter, in total. So you're getting into a $5 billion market, and half of that is in the inhaled segment, which is growing.

Speaker #3: So, the inhaled is starting to infringe on the oral and parenteral categories. So if you look at the oral categories, between Uptravi and the Remodulin, that's about $500 million.

Speaker #3: And if you look at Remodulin, it's about $100 million, and those are shrinking or flat. So the only growth that you're seeing is in the inhaled category.

Roger Jeffs: If you look at Remodulin, it is about $100 million. And those are shrinking or flat. The only growth that you are seeing is in the inhaled category, and the only reason for that growth is YUTREPIA launched. What we are starting to do is broadly take share, not only from the competitive inhaled brand, but also from oral and parenteral as people figure out that, again, this paradigm of tolerability is key and the linchpin to success for these patients. This is where the field is moving. So, a very attractive opportunity in PAH and PH-ILD, as Scott said, which is virtual white space still. So lots of upside, and I think just in the current indications that are approved, there is opportunity to grow beyond the $5 billion that is here today. So, a very attractive market, especially when you have a very attractive molecule like YUTREPIA.

Speaker #3: And the only reason for that growth is Eutrepia launched. So what we're starting to do is broadly take share not only from the competitive inhaled brand, but also from oral and parenteral as people figure out that, again, this paradigm of tolerability is key in the linchpin to success for these patients.

Speaker #3: This is where the field's moving. So a very attractive opportunity in PAH and PHILD, as Scott said, which is virtual white space still. So lots of upside, and I think just in the current indications that are approved, there's opportunity to grow beyond the $5 billion that's here today.

Speaker #3: So a very attractive market, especially when you have a very attractive molecule like Eutrepia. Next question, please.

Roger Jeffs: All right, the next question, please.

Speaker #1: Thank you. Our next question comes from Serge Bellinger with Needham. Your line is open.

Operator: Thank you. Our next question comes from Serge Belanger with Needham. Your line is open.

Speaker #4: Hi, good morning. Thanks for taking my question. I guess just one for probably for regieve. What is the current thinking for the development and regulatory path to potentially expand Eutrepia usage to PPF and IPF?

Serge Belanger: Hi, good morning. Thanks for taking my question. I guess just one probably for Rajeev. What is the current thinking for the development and regulatory path to potentially expand YUTREPIA usage to PPF and IPF?

Rajeev Saggar: Yes, sure, Serge. Thanks for the question. So obviously, just to remember, the safety profile of YUTREPIA has been studied in patients with pulmonary hypertension associated with a broad range of underlying interstitial lung disease, inclusive of IPF, autoimmune disease, and most likely progressive pulmonary fibrosis as well, given the definition of that condition. So I think there is a lot of confidence in the safety profile of YUTREPIA in these patients. I think as you see in the slides, we are going to be advancing a study in the first half of 2027 evaluating the safety, efficacy, and dose titratability of YUTREPIA. I think this is really critical to really highlight the fact that every study that has been done to date with inhaled treprostinil continues to highlight that dose absolutely matters.

Speaker #3: Yes, Serge, thanks for the question. So obviously, just to remember, the safety profile of Eutrepia has been studied in patients with pulmonary hypertension associated with a broad range of underlying interstitial lung disease, inclusive of IPF, autoimmune disease, and most likely progressive pulmonary fibrosis as well given the definition of that condition.

Speaker #3: So I think there's a lot of confidence in the safety profile of Eutrepia in these patients. I think as you see in the slides, we are going to be advancing a study in the first half of 2027 evaluating the safety efficacy and dose titratability of Eutrepia.

Speaker #3: I think this has really critical to really highlight the fact that every study that's been done to date with inhaled truprazole continues to highlight that dose absolutely matters and if you extrapolate what we saw in the increased study as well as in the Teton study, there is at least a minimally acceptable dose and anything above that still needs to be studied.

Rajeev Saggar: And if you extrapolate what we saw in the INCREASE study as well as in the TETON study, there is at least a minimally acceptable dose, and anything above that still needs to be studied. This is where we believe we can shine. So evaluating how high of a dose that we should use to treat those patients is going to be critical in that assessment. Also, we do acknowledge that the antifibrotic world with oral therapies has advanced with the new therapy in the mix, and we do want to see how YUTREPIA will respond on top of some of these therapies so that we can adequately power future studies as well and modify inclusion/exclusion criteria.

Speaker #3: This is where we believe we can shine. So, evaluating how high of a dose we should use to treat those patients is going to be critical in that assessment.

Speaker #3: Also, we do acknowledge that the antifibrotic world with oral therapies has advanced with the new therapy in the mix, and we do want to see what our how Eutrepia will respond on top of some of these therapies so that we can adequately power future studies as well.

Speaker #3: And modify inclusion exclusion criteria. So we're taking it, I think, in a very sophisticated approach. And we have a lot of support through KOL throughout the United States and the rest of the world to help guide us to the best trial design.

Rajeev Saggar: So we are taking it, I think, in a very sophisticated approach, and we have a lot of support through KOLs throughout the United States and the rest of the world to help guide us to the best trial design.

Speaker #3: Great. Operator, next question.

Roger Jeffs: Great. Operator, next question.

Speaker #1: Thank you. Our next question comes from Jason Gerbery with Bank of America. Your line is open.

Operator: Thank you. Our next question comes from Jason Gerberry with Bank of America. Your line is open.

Speaker #5: Hey, guys. Congrats on the quarter. Got a few questions. So, just thinking about the growth here, is it fair to say that most of the growth is coming from category expansion and less from switching from inhaled competitor agents?

Jason Gerberry: Hey, guys. Congrats on the quarter. Got a few. Thinking about the growth here, is it fair to say that most of the growth is coming from category expansion and limited more on the switch from inhaled competitor agents? As we think about the expanded pool of patients, do you have any anecdotes, any commentary to what extent patients with comorbid IPF are seeking treatment with inhaled options and that might be expanding the pie? Lastly, just a question around thinking about drug adherence. You have 5,000 patients treated roughly since the launch. If we think about 10% free drug, about maybe 10% drop-off, it gets you into that sort of patient number that could support the sales number for the quarter.

Speaker #5: And then as we think about the expanded pool of patients, do you have any anecdotes, any commentary to what extent patients with comorbid IPF are seeking treatment with inhaled options and that might be expanding the pie?

Speaker #5: And then lastly, just a question around thinking about drug adherence. You have roughly 5,000 patients treated since the launch. If we think about 10% free drug, and maybe about a 10% drop-off.

Speaker #5: It gets you into that sort of patient number that could support the sales number for the quarter. So are those the right ways to maybe think about patient adherence for some of those early patients who started drug at the early point of the launch?

Jason Gerberry: Are those the right ways to maybe think about patient adherence for some of those early patients who started drug at the early point of the launch? Thanks.

Speaker #5: Thanks.

Speaker #3: Yes. So maybe I'll take on the adherence, and then maybe Scott and Mike, you guys can talk about the growth and the pool of patients.

Roger Jeffs: Yeah. Maybe I will pick on the adherence and then maybe Scott and Mike, you guys can talk about the growth and the pool of patients. I will say, though, Jason, that I do not think IPF is yet sort of expanding the market. I think what we are seeing is on-label expansion. So nothing there from an IPF standpoint, although certainly in the future, I think there will be more interest in seeing what the value of YUTREPIA could be in that indication by physicians. In terms of drug adherence, really are not talking about it much. Obviously, we have said it over and over again that the tolerability to our therapy is best in class. I think because of that the adherence to the drug will be best in class. So we would expect it would be underneath sort of the typical discontinuation rate of competitive inhaled agents, for sure.

Speaker #3: I will say, though, Jason, that I don't think IPF is yet sort of expanding the market. I think what we're seeing is on label expansion.

Speaker #3: So nothing there from an IPF standpoint. Although certainly in the future, I think there'll be more interest in seeing what the value of Eutrepia could be in that indication by physicians.

Speaker #3: In terms of drug adherence, we really aren't talking about it much. Obviously, we've said it over and over again that the tolerability to our therapy is best in class.

Speaker #3: And I think because of that, that the adherence to the drug will be best in class. So we would expect that we'd be underneath sort of the typical discontinuation rate of competitive inhaled agents for sure.

Speaker #3: But we need more time to think about it. What we do know is that the AEs they manifest at first exposure. And if somebody's going to be intolerant to the drug, it's usually somewhat in the first one to three months that they become intolerant and we'll move off of the therapy if it's because of intolerance.

Roger Jeffs: But we need more time to think about it. What we do know is that the AEs, they manifest at first exposure. If somebody is going to be intolerant to the drug, it is usually somewhat in the first 1 to 3 months that they become intolerant and will move off of the therapy if it is because of intolerance. Again, let us remind ourselves this is a life-threatening disease. These patients are severely ill, and with ILD, they have comorbid disease, so patients do die and clip off at a pace just due to other comorbidities. So we are still looking at that, and I do not think you can do the kind of parallel match that you are trying to assign here in terms of what you were doing. Again, as we get more and more information, we will get a little bit more granular about that as we move forward.

Speaker #3: Again, let's remind ourselves this is a life-threatening disease. These patients are severely ill and with ILD, they have comorbid disease. So patients do die and clip off at a pace just due to other comorbidities.

Speaker #3: So we're still looking at that. And I don't think you can do the kind of parallel match that you're trying to assign here in terms of what you would do with what you were doing.

Speaker #3: So again, as we get more and more information, we'll get a little bit more granular about that as we move forward. But nothing's concerning in terms of our DC rate and again, it all because of our print-enabled formulation we're not getting discontinuation because of AEs at the rate that the competitive agents are.

Roger Jeffs: Nothing's concerning in terms of our DC rate. Again, it all, because of our PRINT-enabled formulation, we are not getting discontinuation because of AEs at the rate that the competitive agents are. Again, all good news there. I think one way that we can grow the revenues is to stack on patients quarter over quarter, and that is what you are seeing. That is why it looks to be quite linear. Then maybe Scott, if you want to talk about the growth specifically that Jason was asking about.

Speaker #3: So again, all good news there. And I think one way that we can grow the revenues is to stack on patients quarter over quarter.

Speaker #3: And that's what you're seeing. So that's why it looks to be quite linear. And then maybe Scott, if you want to talk about the growth specifically that Jason was asking about.

Speaker #2: Yeah. Hi, Jason. So I'll handle the switch part of that question first and then I'll come back to the kind of market expansion although obviously they're related.

Scott Moomaw: Yeah. Hi, Jason. I will handle the switch part of that question first, and then I will come back to the market expansion, although obviously they are related. I think we absolutely are still seeing switches. We are seeing switches from other inhaled therapies for the reasons we have been outlining since before launch. We are seeing switches from the oral prostacyclins as well. I think, generally because of the rough tolerability of those drugs and the inability to titrate to effect. Also with the decreased promotion in that sector coming from Johnson & Johnson backing away as well. I think that is propelling that. In terms of market expansion, I think if you walk through the math that Roger walked through earlier, I think you have to say that we are expanding the market just globally from a revenue standpoint.

Speaker #2: I mean, I think we absolutely are still seeing switches we're seeing switches from other inhaled therapies for the reasons we've been outlining since before launch.

Speaker #2: And we are seeing switches from the oral process cyclones as well. I think generally because of the rough tolerability of those drugs and the inability to titrate to effect, but also with the decreased promotion in that sector coming from J&J backing away as well, I think that's kind of propelling that.

Speaker #2: In terms of market expansion, I think if you walk through the math that Roger walked through earlier, I think you have to say that we are expanding the market just globally from a revenue standpoint.

Speaker #2: However, when I'm in the market, when I'm talking to folks, I think the dynamic is, yes, there are some switches when patients for the reasons I mentioned earlier.

Scott Moomaw: However, when I am in the market, when I am talking to folks, I think the dynamic is, yes, there are some switches when patients, for the reasons I mentioned earlier. More often than not, what happens is, a prescriber who used to use one of the other inhaleds first or oral prostacyclin first, and they have come around to the fact that this is a better therapy to use first. So now they are putting us ahead of those therapies, and that is how we are gaining share. The good news is both are happening, and as a student of the market, having been in it 16 years, I am fascinated to watch it happen. I think the answer is both are happening.

Speaker #2: But more often than not, what happens is it's a prescriber who used to use one of the other inhales first. Or an oral process cyclone first.

Speaker #2: And they've come around to the fact that this is a better therapy to use first. And so now, they are putting us ahead of those therapies, and that's how we are gaining share.

Speaker #2: So the good news is both are happening and there's sort of a student of the market having been in it 16 years. I'm fascinated to watch it happen.

Speaker #2: But I think the answer is both are happening. You can't argue with the math that the market is expanding. And I'm seeing it every day in terms of us gaining share within the market.

Scott Moomaw: You cannot argue with the math that the market is expanding, and I am seeing it every day in terms of us gaining share within the market.

Rajeev Saggar: Maybe I can just step in, just last comment. I think it is important, Jason, to recognize that the hemodynamic definition has just changed, and it has been slightly under 2 years since the hemodynamic profile of the definition of pulmonary hypertension has been modified. So that education, I think, is starting to become a lot more universal across both the centers and the community itself. I think we can learn a lot from that by a study designed by another company called FINDER, which essentially was looking at what is actually the prevalence of pulmonary hypertension in the setting of ILD, just highlighting the market growth potential here. These proactively performed right heart catheterization suggesting that actually the diagnosis of pulmonary hypertension was on the order of over 70%, of which precapillary pulmonary hypertension, using the new definition, was around 55%.

Speaker #4: Maybe I can just step in just last comment. I think it's important Jason to recognize that the hemodynamic definition has just changed and it's been slightly under two years since the hemodynamic profile of the definition of pulmonary hypertension has been modified.

Speaker #4: So that education I think is starting to become a lot more universal. Across both the centers and the community itself. And I think we can learn a lot from that by a study designed by one of our another company called Finder which essentially was looking at what is actually the prevalence of pulmonary hypertension in the setting of ILD just highlighting the market growth potential here and these proactively performed right heart catheterization suggesting that actually the diagnosis of pulmonary hypertension was on the order of over 70% of which pre-capillary pulmonary hypertension using the new definition was around 55%.

Speaker #4: I think that just highlights that the demand and the amount of pulmonary hypertension especially in group three is actually acutely being understood by the market.

Rajeev Saggar: I think that just highlights that the demand and the amount of pulmonary hypertension, especially in Group 3, is actually acutely being understood by the market. Because of the safety profile of YUTREPIA and the ability to titrate higher tita doses and modify this condition, I think is being well received in the marketplace and we continue to focus on that exclusive growth.

Speaker #4: There's there and because of the safety profile of Eutrepia and the ability to titrate higher titer doses and modify this condition, I think is being well received in the marketplace and continue to focus on that growth.

Speaker #3: Great. Thanks for that addition, Rajeev. Operator, next question.

Roger Jeffs: Great.

Scott Moomaw: Thank you.

Roger Jeffs: Thanks for that addition, Rajeev. Operator, next question.

Speaker #1: Thank you. Our next question comes from Gaurav. Many, with lifestyle capital, your line is open.

Operator: Thank you. Our next question comes from Gaurav Maini with LifeSci Capital. Your line is open.

Speaker #5: Hey, good morning. For us and another great quarter guys. So just a quick one from me here. As we think about Eutrepia growth moving forward, can you just give us a refresher on sort of the patient setting plan as we think about targets, right?

Gaurav Maini: Hey, good morning. Congrats on another great quarter, guys. Just a quick one from me here. As we think about YUTREPIA growth moving forward, can you just give us a refresher on sort of the patient setting plan as we think about targets? Do you see the community setting as still relatively under-penetrated, and is this going to be a key area of growth moving forward? Put another way, could we potentially see acceleration in patient adds as community penetration increases, especially with the recent salesforce expansion? Thanks.

Speaker #5: So do you see the community setting as still relatively under-penetrated? And is this going to be a key area of growth moving forward? And then put another way, could we potentially see acceleration in patient ads as community penetration increases, especially with the recent Salesforce expansion?

Speaker #5: Thanks.

Speaker #3: Yeah. Scott, if you wouldn't mind talking about that.

Roger Jeffs: Yeah, Scott, if you wouldn't mind talking about that.

Speaker #2: Yeah. There is absolutely a lot of room for growth in the community. I mean, we know those patients are out there. Rajeev talks about the prevalence of PHLD being whatever it is, 30 to 60 percent in ILD patients.

Scott Moomaw: Yeah. There is absolutely a lot of room for growth in the community. We know those patients are out there. Rajeev talks about the prevalence of PH-ILD being whatever it is, 30% to 60% in ILD patients. Clearly in all of those patients that are out there's an opportunity to better identify, diagnose, and refer or treat those patients. It's a little bit of a, I don't want to say a slow burn because it's going to happen this year and next year. There's definitely some work there to penetrate, which we're doing with the expansion. In terms of patient numbers, I don't think we're ready to say that the pace is going to increase as a result of that.

Speaker #2: And so clearly in all of those patients that are out there, there's an opportunity to better identify diagnosis and refer or treat those patients.

Speaker #2: And so it's a little bit of a I don't want to say a slow burn because it's going to happen this year. And next year.

Speaker #2: But there's definitely some work there to penetrate. Which we're doing with the expansion. In terms of patient numbers, I don't think we're ready to say that that's going to the pace is going to increase as a result of that.

Speaker #2: But clearly there is a lot of room in that 60,000 patients that are a lot of those are out there in the community and just haven't been identified yet.

Scott Moomaw: But clearly there is a lot of room in that 60,000 patients that a lot of those are out there in the community and just haven't been identified yet.

Speaker #3: Great. Thank you, Scott. Operator, next question.

Roger Jeffs: Great. Thank you, Scott. Operator, next question.

Speaker #1: Thank you. I'm showing no further questions at this time. Oh, now I'd like to turn it back to Dr. Roger Jeffs for closing remarks.

Operator: Thank you. I'm showing no further questions at this time. I would now like to turn it back to Dr. Roger Jeffs for closing remarks.

Speaker #3: Great. Thank you everyone for joining the call. We're very excited about the results and clinical update that we could provide today and look forward to updating you again in the near future.

Roger Jeffs: Great. Thank you everyone for joining the call. We're very excited about the results and clinical update that we could provide today and look forward to updating you again in the near future. Bye-bye.

Speaker #3: Bye-bye.

Operator: This concludes today's conference call. Thank you for participating. You may now disconnect.
