From Oct 2024 to Dec 2024
Webcast presentation on October 31, 2024, at 13:00 CET / 8:00 am ET, www.glpg.com
Mechelen, Belgium; October 30, 2024, 21:01 CET; regulated information – Galapagos NV (Euronext & NASDAQ: GLPG) today announced financial results for the first nine months of 2024 and provided a business update.
“I am proud of our team’s commitment in executing our Forward, Faster strategy,” said Paul Stoffels1, MD, Galapagos’ CEO and Chair of the Board of Directors. “The FDA's clearance of the ATALANTA-1 study of GLPG5101, produced on our decentralized manufacturing platform in patients with relapsed/refractory non-Hodgkin lymphoma, marks a pivotal step towards realizing our vision of transforming patient outcomes through life-changing science and innovation. This is the first-ever FDA clearance for a clinical study in the U.S. with a fresh CAR-T product candidate delivered in a median vein-to-vein time of seven days. We remain focused on advancing our clinical pipeline in 11 indications and our potential best-in-class early-stage programs across multiple modalities and indications.”
“With more than 20 active cell therapy and small molecule programs in oncology and immunology, we are accelerating our internal pipeline while we continue to assess business development opportunities. We reaffirm our 2024 cash burn guidance in the range of €370-410 million,” Thad Huston, Galapagos’ CFO and COO, added.

DETAILS OF THE FINANCIAL RESULTS FOR THE FIRST NINE MONTHS OF 2024
As a consequence of the transfer of our Jyseleca® business to Alfasigma, the revenues and costs related to Jyseleca® for the first nine months of 2024 are presented separately from the results of our continuing operations in the line ‘Net profit from discontinued operations, net of tax’ in our consolidated income statement. The comparative first nine months of 2023 have been restated accordingly for the presentation of the results related to the Jyseleca® business.
Results from our continuing operations
Total operating loss from continuing operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, was €125.6 million, compared to an operating loss of €41.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023.
Net financial income in the first nine months of 2024 amounted to €103.5 million, compared to net financial income of €90.3 million for the first nine months of 2023.
Net tax income in the first nine months of 2024 amounted to €1.7 million, compared to net tax expenses of €12.2 million for the first nine months of 2023. The net tax expenses in 2023 were primarily due to the re-assessment of net deferred tax liabilities and corporate income tax payables as a result of a one-off intercompany transaction.
Net loss from continuing operations for the first nine months of 2024 was €20.4 million, compared to a net profit from continuing operations of €36.2 million for the first nine months of 2023.

1 Throughout this press release, ‘Dr. Paul Stoffels’ should be read as ‘Dr. Paul Stoffels, acting via Stoffels IMC BV’.
i The operational cash burn (or operational cash flow if this liquidity measure is positive) is equal to the increase or decrease in our cash and cash equivalents (excluding the effect of exchange rate differences on cash and cash equivalents), minus:
• the net proceeds, if any, from share capital and share premium increases included in the net cash flows generated from/used in (-) financing activities
• the net proceeds or cash used, if any, related to the acquisitions or disposals of businesses; the acquisition of financial assets held at fair value through other comprehensive income; the movement in restricted cash and movement in current financial investments, if any, the cash advances and loans given to third parties, if any, included in the net cash flows generated from/used in (-) investing activities
• the cash used for other liabilities related to the acquisition or disposal of businesses, if any, included in the net cash flows generated from/used in (-) operating activities.
This alternative liquidity measure is in our view an important metric for a biotech company in the development stage. The operational cash burn for the first nine months of 2024 amounted to €321.3 million and can be reconciled to our cash flow statement by considering the decrease in cash and cash equivalents of €111.8 million, adjusted by (i) the net sale of current financial investments amounting to €260.2 million, (ii) the cash-out related to the sale of subsidiaries of €13.8 million, and (iii) the acquisition of financial assets held at fair value through other comprehensive income of €36.9 million.
