Cash and cash equivalents totaled €61.6 million as of June 30, 2024, excluding the €48.7 million milestone invoiced in June 2024 (received in August 2024) upon first sale of Ipsen’s Iqirvo® (elafibranor) in the U.S. for the treatment of Primary Biliary Cholangitis (PBC)€59.0 million in revenues, including the €48.7 million milestone invoiced in June 2024 Positive opinion from the European Medicines Agency Committee in July 2024, with final decision on marketing authorization for Iqirvo anticipated in the second half of 2024, clearing the path to an additional €26.5 million milestone payment expected upon Iqirvo’s pricing and reimbursement approval in three European countries Lille (France), Cambridge (Massachusetts, United States), (Zurich, Switzerland); September 19, 2024 – GENFIT (Nasdaq and Euronext: GNFT), a late-stage biopharmaceutical company dedicated to improving the lives of patients with rare and life-threatening liver diseases, today announced its first half-year 2024 financial results and provided a corporate update. Pascal Prigent, CEO of GENFIT, commented: “The approval of Iqirvo in the United States was a very significant milestone for the entire GENFIT team. We are proud to have developed elafibranor from its initial discovery through late-stage trials and are thrilled to now see it prescribed to U.S. patients. We believe Iqirvo can potentially address a significant unmet need for people living with PBC. Following the positive CHMP opinion in July 2024, we also anticipate a final decision on authorization in Europe by the end of the year.” Mr. Prigent continued, “We believe the recent approval in the U.S. of Iqirvo demonstrates our robust drug development capabilities and, along with our strong financial position enabled by our partnership with Ipsen, we are well positioned to continue to develop innovative therapies for challenging and underserved liver conditions that are life-threatening.” I. 1H24 Business highlights1 PBC Accelerated approval of Ipsen’s Iqirvo®2 (elafibranor) was granted on June 10, 2024 by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (U.S. FDA), as a first-in-class treatment for PBC in combination with ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) in adults with an inadequate response to UDCA, or as monotherapy in patients unable to tolerate UDCA. Following Ipsen’s commercial launch in the U.S. in June 2024, first royalty invoicing began and a €48.7 million milestone payment was made. On July 25, 2024, Ipsen announced an “encouraging early start for Iqirvo in the U.S.” and indicated that “50% of Healthcare Professionals surveyed one week post launch were very likely to prescribe Iqirvo”. Ipsen also reported “early positive coverage determinations from commercial and government payer segments”3. On July 26, 2024, the Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) of the European Medicines Agency's (EMA) issued a positive opinion for the treatment of PBC in combination with ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) in adults with an inadequate response to UDCA or as a monotherapy in patients unable to tolerate UDCA. Acute on-Chronic Liver Failure (ACLF) franchise The UNVEIL-IT®2 Phase 2 trial for VS-01 progressed, with the opening of several new clinical investigation sites and geographic expansion into the U.S. However, the initial uptake of recruitment was below our expectations, and we have been working closely with investigators to address this. As a result, we have modified our protocol to better account for the logistics of the care for these patients, as well as their many comorbidities. We feel that the latest version of the protocol addresses the initial challenges and should allow us to maintain our timeline of having preliminary results before the end of the year. We will monitor the impact of the implementation of the new protocol and will update this guidance as appropriate. During the EASL congress in June 2024, GENFIT presented blood and peritoneal metabolomics data suggesting that VS-01 actively captures metabolites associated with ACLF. Data indicating that NTZ (nitazoxanide) directly protects from stress-induced cell death to alleviate liver damage in preclinical models of ACLF were also presented. June 2024 also marked the start of a research collaboration between GENFIT and the European Foundation for the Study of Chronic Liver Failure (EF CLIF), reinforcing our leadership in advancing the understanding of ACLF. MASH diagnostics In June 2024, new European Clinical Practice Guidelines on managing metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) recognized NIS2+®2 as a key tool for detecting at-risk MASH4. This highlights the potential of our technology in identifying those who may benefit from emerging MASH treatments. Corporate governance updates Following the death of Mr. Xavier Guille des Buttes in April 2024, Vice-Chairman of the Board of Directors, the composition of the Board of Directors of the Company changed. In accordance with the succession plan, Mr. Éric Baclet become Vice-Chairman of the Board of Directors. He was also appointed Chairman of the Nominations and Compensation Committee. Mr. Jean-François Tiné joined the Audit Committee. In May 2024, the Board of Directors appointed Ms. Katherine Kalin as member of the ESG Committee. II. 2H24 and beyond: key milestones and outlook PBC Following the positive CHMP recommendation, the European Commission is expected to take a final decision on marketing authorization for Iqirvo in the second half of 2024. After the €13.3 million milestone payment received in February 2024 and the €48.7 million milestone payment received in August 2024, a €26.5 million milestone payment is expected to be received upon Iqirvo’s pricing and reimbursement approval in three European countries. Over the Summer of 2024, Iqirvo's competitive landscape evolved as expected, reinforcing confidence in our revenue projections. We intend to provide royalty revenue forecasts once additional information is received from our commercial partner Ipsen5. ACLF franchise Previous guidance is reiterated: VS-01-ACLF: Phase 2 interim data readout still targeted for 2H24, taking into account the implementation of the new protocol NTZ in ACLF: reformulation and Phase 2 under preparation with a proof-of-concept study initiation targeted for 1H25SRT-015: First-in-Human study initiation targeted 1Q25CLM-022: preclinical Proof of Concept expected to be obtained by end of 2024VS-02-HE: completion of Investigational New Drug (IND) enabling studies expected in 2025 Other indications Previous guidance is reiterated: Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA): The GNS561 Phase 1b/2a clinical trial is currently ongoing and preliminary data from Phase 1b is targeted by the end of 2024VS-01 Urea Cycle Disorder (UCD) and Organic Acidemia (OA): Following completion of the non-clinical feasibility study, we plan to develop formulation optimization for specific pediatric implementation and conduct IND enabling nonclinical studies with a target to complete such non-clinical studies in 2024. MASH Diagnostics The first-ever approved drug for MASH was approved in early 2024 and we anticipate that this should increase the focus on diagnosis over the coming years and the need for a non-invasive test such as NIS2+. III. 1H24 Financial highlights Cash and cash equivalents As of June 30, 2024, GENFIT had €61.6 million in cash and cash equivalents compared with €77.8 million as of December 31, 2023. Cash and cash equivalents as of June 30, 2024 exclude the €48.7 million milestone invoiced in June 2024 upon first sale of Ipsen’s Iqirvo® (elafibranor) in the U.S. for the treatment of PBC, as this balance was received in August 2024. We expect that our existing cash and cash equivalents will enable us to fund our operating expenses and capital expenditure requirements until at least the start of the fourth quarter of 2025. This is based on current assumptions and programs and does not include exceptional events. This estimation includes our expectations to receive future milestone revenue, subject to approval by applicable regulatory authorities and European commercial launches of elafibranor in PBC by Ipsen, representing a total of approximately €26.5 million. In the first half of 2024, cash utilization is mainly the result of our research and development efforts, notably for Elative, our Phase 3 clinical trial of elafibranor in PBC (approved by the FDA in June 2024); UNVEIL-IT, our Phase 2 clinical trial of VS-01 in ACLF; GNS561, as part of our cholangiocarcinoma program; NTZ, as part of our ACLF program; and SRT-015, also as part of our ACLF program. Revenues and other income Revenues and other income amounted to €61.2 million in the first half of 2024, compared to €15.4 million in the first half of 2023. Substantially all revenue is attributable to our Collaboration and License Agreement with Ipsen and related Transition Services Agreement. Revenue growth is due to a €48.7 million milestone invoiced to Ipsen in June 2024 following the first commercial sale of Iqirvo in the U.S. The milestone was collected in August 2024. Operating expenses Operating expenses amounted to €30.0 million in the first half of 2024 (compared to €34.7 million in the first half of 2023). Substantially all of the decrease in operating expenses is due to research and development expenses, which amounted to €19.0 million in the first half of 2024 (compared to €25.6 million in the first half of 2023). Specifically, there was a decrease in: Contracting costs which amounted to €7.8 million in the first half of 2024 (compared to €14.4 million in the first half of 2023), primarily reflecting decreased activities related to Elative, following the FDA approval in June 2024, andOther expenses (maintenance, fees, travel and other taxes) which amounted to €2.8 million in the first half of 2024 (compared to €3.3 million in the first half of 2023), reflecting decreased activity as previously noted. Financial results For the half-year ended June 30, 2024, financial income amounted to a loss of €0.9 million, compared to a loss of €1.1 million for the same period in 2023. Net loss The first half of 2024 resulted in a net profit of €30.3 million, compared with a net loss of €20.9 million in the first half of 2023.

Revenues For the half-year ended June 30, 2024, revenue amounted to €58,973 compared with €11,482 for the same period in 2023. Revenue is primarily composed of: Licensing Agreement (Ipsen). In December 2021, GENFIT and Ipsen entered into an exclusive licensing agreement for elafibranor (marketed as Iqirvo), a Phase 3 asset evaluated in PBC, as part of a long-term global partnership ("Collaboration and License Agreement"). During the first six months of 2024: €48.7 million was attributable to a milestone invoiced to Ipsen in June 2024 following the first commercial sale of Iqirvo/elafibranor in the U.S.€9.3 million was attributable to the partial recognition of deferred revenue as noted in Note 20 - "Deferred income and revenue".€0.2 million was attributable to royalty revenue from U.S. sales of Iqirvo. During the first six months of 2023: €8.2 million was attributable to the partial recognition of deferred revenue as noted in Note 20 - "Deferred income and revenue". Transition Services Agreement (Ipsen). GENFIT and Ipsen entered into the Transition Services Agreement and Part B Transition Services Agreement, signed in April 2022 and September 2023 respectively, in order to facilitate the transition of certain services related to the Phase 3 Elative clinical trial until the complete transfer of the responsibility of the trial to Ipsen. During the first six months of 2024, services provided under this contract generated €0.8 million in revenue.During the first six months of 2023, services provided under this contract generated €3.2 million in revenue. Research Tax Credit (CIR) During the first six months of 2024, the CIR amounted to €2,108 in 2024 including €177 of legally required related interest, (€3,547 for the same period in 2023), due to a reduction in eligible research and development expenses. The CIR receivable amounted to €7,738 as of June 30, 2024, which comprises balances from 2023 onward (compared to €12,200 for the same period in 2023). Previously withheld balances from 2021 and 2022 have since been reimbursed on May 28, 2024 in the amount of €6,570 which includes legally required related interest of €177. We were subject to a tax audit by the French tax authorities on our tax returns or operations subject to review on the 2019 and 2020 periods (including the CIR claimed for these periods), which started on December 10, 2021 and is still ongoing at the date of this document. Other operating income During the first six months of 2024, the Group recognized €97 in “Other operating income” (€263 for the same period in 2023), mainly comprised of exchange gains on trade receivables. (2) Operating expenses by destination The tables below break operating expenses down by destination, mainly into research and development expenses, general and administrative expenses, and marketing and market access expenses.

They include the following: Research and development expenses For the first six months of 2023, research and development expenses totaled €25.6 million. These expenses were comprised of €14.4 million in contracted research and development conducted by third parties, €6.3 million in employee expenses, €3.3 million in other expenses, €0.7 million in depreciation, amortization and impairment charges and €1.0 million in raw materials and consumables. For the first six months of 2024, research and development expenses totaled €19.0 million. These expenses were comprised of €7.8 million in contracted research and development conducted by third parties, €6.6 million in employee expenses, €2.8 million in other expenses, €0.7 million in depreciation, amortization and impairment charges and €1.1 million in raw materials and consumables. The decrease of €6.6 million in contracted research and development conducted by third parties is mainly due to: Decreasing costs related to the Elative product candidate (approved by the FDA in the US in June 2024 and marketed under the name Iqirvo) of €7.4 million,Increasing costs related to the SRT-015 product candidate of €0.5 million, andIncreasing costs related to the VS-01 product candidate of €0.3 million. The increase of €0.3 million in employee expenses, consisting of wages, salaries, social security, pension costs and share-based compensation paid to employees in the research and development function, relates primarily to the increase in workforce (from 96 to 106 employees at June 30, 2023 and 2024, respectively). The decrease of €0.5 million in other expenses is mainly due to decreasing costs related to maintenance costs of €0.3 million and decreasing costs related to consultants of €0.2 million. General and administrative expenses For the first six months of 2023, general and administrative expenses totaled €9.1 million. These expenses were mainly comprised of €3.9 million in employee expenses and €4.6 million in other expenses. For the first six months of 2024, general and administrative expenses totaled €10.6 million. These expenses were mainly comprised of €4.4 million in employee expenses and €5.8 million in other expenses. The increase of €0.5 million in employee expenses in the general and administrative function was mainly due to the increase in workforce (from 56 to 61 employees at June 30, 2023 and 2024, respectively). The increase of €1.2 million in other expenses in the general and administrative function was mainly due to increases in i) maintenance costs of €0.7 million, ii) consulting costs of €0.2 million, iii) donations of €0.2 million, et iv) recruiting fees of €0.1 million. Marketing and market access expenses For the first six months of 2023, marketing and market access expenses totaled €0.5 million. These expenses were mainly comprised of €0.3 million in employee expenses and €0.2 million in other expenses. For the first six months of 2024, marketing and market access expenses totaled €0.4 million. These expenses were mainly comprised of €0.3 million in employee expenses and €0.1 million in other expenses. Marketing and market access expenses remained stable period over period. Reorganization and restructuring income (expenses) During the first half of 2023, the Group reversed the entire remaining RESOLVE-IT® provision consisting of unused building space, which are now in use. There was no reorganization and restructuring expense in 2024. (3) Financial income (expense) For the half-year ended June 30, 2024, financial income amounted to a loss of €0.9 million, compared to a loss of €1.1 million for the same period in 2023. For the first six months of 2024, this is primarily the result of interest expense of €2.3 million, realized and unrealized foreign exchange loss of €0.6 million, and €1.7 million in accrued and realized interest income. For the first six months of 2024, this is primarily the result of interest expense of €2.3 million, realized and unrealized foreign exchange loss of €42 thousand, and €1.3 million in accrued and realized interest income. (4) Net income (loss) The first half of 2024 resulted in net profit of €30,311 thousand compared with a net loss of €20,854 thousand in the first half of 2023. Comments on the Group’s Cash Flows for the periods ended June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2024. As of June 30, 2024, cash and cash equivalents amounted to €61,645. Over the period, change in cash flow by type of flow was as follows: Half-year ended (in € thousands) 2023/06/30 2024/06/30 Cash flows provided by (used in) operating activities (25,074) (11,187) Cash flows provided by (used in) investment activities 2,682 (687) Cash flows provided by (used in) financing activities (1,764) (4,225) (24,155) (16,100) (1) Cash flows provided by (used in) operating activities Cash flow used in operating activities amounted to an outflow of €11,187 thousand for the half-year ended June 30, 2024 compared with an outflow of €25,074 thousand for the half-year ended June 30, 2023. In the first half of 2024, this amount mainly stems from our research and development efforts; notably for Elative, our Phase 3 clinical trial of elafibranor in PBC (approved by the FDA in June 2024); UNVEIL-IT®, our Phase 2 clinical trial of VS-01 in ACLF; GNS561, as part of its cholangiocarcinoma program; and NTZ, as part of its ACLF program. In the first half of 2023, this amount mainly stems from our net loss of €20.9 million, which is largely the result of our research and development efforts; notably for Elative, our Phase 3 clinical trial of elafibranor in PBC; UNVEIL-IT®, our Phase 2 clinical trial of VS-01 in ACLF; GNS561, as part of its cholangiocarcinoma program; and NTZ, as part of its ACLF program. The change between the first half of 2024 and 2023 is further explained by the receipt of a milestone of €13.3 million from IPSEN in 2024 (incurred and recorded in 2023, upon the acceptance of the new drug application filing with the FDA and the filing of the marketing authorization application with the EMA for the accelerated approval of elafibranor). These cash flows reflect GENFIT’s business, which requires significant research and development efforts, and generates expenses that change in line with progress on the Company’s research programs, net of its operating revenues. (2) Cash flows provided by (used in) investing activities Cash flow used in investing activities amounted to €-687 thousand in the first half of 2024, compared with €2,682 thousand in cash flow provided in the first half of 2023. These cash flows include acquisitions, disposals and repayments of fixed assets and financial assets. (3) Cash flows provided by (used in) financing activities Cash flow used in financing activities amounted to €-4,225 thousand in the first half of 2024, compared with €-1,764 thousand in the first half of 2023. In the first half of 2024, these cash flows mainly reflect financial interest received and paid. The decrease is mainly explained by loan repayments for the period.

Cash and cash equivalents totaled €61.6 million as of June 30, 2024, excluding the €48.7 million milestone invoiced in June 2024 (received in August 2024) upon first sale of Ipsen’s Iqirvo® (elafibranor) in the U.S. for the treatment of Primary Biliary Cholangitis (PBC) €59.0 million in revenues, including the €48.7 million milestone invoiced in June 2024 Positive opinion from the European Medicines Agency Committee in July 2024, with final decision on marketing authorization for Iqirvo anticipated in the second half of 2024, clearing the path to an additional €26.5 million milestone payment expected upon Iqirvo’s pricing and reimbursement approval in three European countries Lille (France), Cambridge (Massachusetts, United States), (Zurich, Switzerland); September 19, 2024 – GENFIT (Nasdaq and Euronext: GNFT), a late-stage biopharmaceutical company dedicated to improving the lives of patients with rare and life-threatening liver diseases, today announced its first half-year 2024 financial results and provided a corporate update. Pascal Prigent, CEO of GENFIT, commented: “The approval of Iqirvo® in the United States was a very significant milestone for the entire GENFIT team. We are proud to have developed elafibranor from its initial discovery through late-stage trials and are thrilled to now see it prescribed to U.S. patients. We believe Iqirvo® can potentially address a significant unmet need for people living with PBC. Following the positive CHMP opinion in July 2024, we also anticipate a final decision on authorization in Europe by the end of the year.” Mr. Prigent continued, “We believe the recent approval in the U.S. of Iqirvo® demonstrates our robust drug development capabilities and, along with our strong financial position enabled by our partnership with Ipsen, we are well positioned to continue to develop innovative therapies for challenging and underserved liver conditions that are life-threatening.” I. 1H24 Business highlights1 PBC Accelerated approval of Ipsen’s Iqirvo®2 (elafibranor) was granted on June 10, 2024 by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (U.S. FDA), as a first-in-class treatment for PBC in combination with ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) in adults with an inadequate response to UDCA, or as monotherapy in patients unable to tolerate UDCA. Following Ipsen’s commercial launch in the U.S. in June 2024, first royalty invoicing began and a €48.7 million milestone payment was made. On July 25, 2024, Ipsen announced an “encouraging early start for Iqirvo in the U.S.” and indicated that “50% of Healthcare Professionals surveyed one week post launch were very likely to prescribe Iqirvo”. Ipsen also reported “early positive coverage determinations from commercial and government payer segments”3. On July 26, 2024, the Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) of the European Medicines Agency's (EMA) issued a positive opinion for the treatment of PBC in combination with ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) in adults with an inadequate response to UDCA or as a monotherapy in patients unable to tolerate UDCA. Acute on-Chronic Liver Failure (ACLF) franchise The UNVEIL-IT®2 Phase 2 trial for VS-01 progressed, with the opening of several new clinical investigation sites and geographic expansion into the U.S. However, the initial uptake of recruitment was below our expectations, and we have been working closely with investigators to address this. As a result, we have modified our protocol to better account for the logistics of the care for these patients, as well as their many comorbidities. We feel that the latest version of the protocol addresses the initial challenges and should allow us to maintain our timeline of having preliminary results before the end of the year. We will monitor the impact of the implementation of the new protocol and will update this guidance as appropriate. During the EASL congress in June 2024, GENFIT presented blood and peritoneal metabolomics data suggesting that VS-01 actively captures metabolites associated with ACLF. Data indicating that NTZ (nitazoxanide) directly protects from stress-induced cell death to alleviate liver damage in preclinical models of ACLF were also presented. June 2024 also marked the start of a research collaboration between GENFIT and the European Foundation for the Study of Chronic Liver Failure (EF CLIF), reinforcing our leadership in advancing the understanding of ACLF. MASH diagnostics In June 2024, new European Clinical Practice Guidelines on managing metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) recognized NIS2+®2 as a key tool for detecting at-risk MASH4. This highlights the potential of our technology in identifying those who may benefit from emerging MASH treatments. Corporate governance updates Following the death of Mr. Xavier Guille des Buttes in April 2024, Vice-Chairman of the Board of Directors, the composition of the Board of Directors of the Company changed. In accordance with the succession plan, Mr. Éric Baclet become Vice-Chairman of the Board of Directors. He was also appointed Chairman of the Nominations and Compensation Committee. Mr. Jean-François Tiné joined the Audit Committee. In May 2024, the Board of Directors appointed Ms. Katherine Kalin as member of the ESG Committee. II. 2H24 and beyond: key milestones and outlook PBC Following the positive CHMP recommendation, the European Commission is expected to take a final decision on marketing authorization for Iqirvo in the second half of 2024. After the €13.3 million milestone payment received in February 2024 and the €48.7 million milestone payment received in August 2024, a €26.5 million milestone payment is expected to be received upon Iqirvo’s pricing and reimbursement approval in three European countries. Over the Summer of 2024, Iqirvo's competitive landscape evolved as expected, reinforcing confidence in our revenue projections. We intend to provide royalty revenue forecasts once additional information is received from our commercial partner Ipsen5. ACLF franchise Previous guidance is reiterated: VS-01-ACLF: Phase 2 interim data readout still targeted for 2H24, taking into account the implementation of the new protocol NTZ in ACLF: reformulation and Phase 2 under preparation with a proof-of-concept study initiation targeted for 1H25 SRT-015: First-in-Human study initiation targeted 1Q25 CLM-022: preclinical Proof of Concept expected to be obtained by end of 2024 VS-02-HE: completion of Investigational New Drug (IND) enabling studies expected in 2025 Other indications Previous guidance is reiterated: Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA): The GNS561 Phase 1b/2a clinical trial is currently ongoing and preliminary data from Phase 1b is targeted by the end of 2024 VS-01 Urea Cycle Disorder (UCD) and Organic Acidemia (OA): Following completion of the non-clinical feasibility study, we plan to develop formulation optimization for specific pediatric implementation and conduct IND enabling nonclinical studies with a target to complete such non-clinical studies in 2024. MASH Diagnostics The first-ever approved drug for MASH was approved in early 2024 and we anticipate that this should increase the focus on diagnosis over the coming years and the need for a non-invasive test such as NIS2+. III. 1H24 Financial highlights Cash and cash equivalents As of June 30, 2024, GENFIT had €61.6 million in cash and cash equivalents compared with €77.8 million as of December 31, 2023. Cash and cash equivalents as of June 30, 2024 exclude the €48.7 million milestone invoiced in June 2024 upon first sale of Ipsen’s Iqirvo® (elafibranor) in the U.S. for the treatment of PBC, as this balance was received in August 2024. We expect that our existing cash and cash equivalents will enable us to fund our operating expenses and capital expenditure requirements until at least the start of the fourth quarter of 2025. This is based on current assumptions and programs and does not include exceptional events. This estimation includes our expectations to receive future milestone revenue, subject to approval by applicable regulatory authorities and European commercial launches of elafibranor in PBC by Ipsen, representing a total of approximately €26.5 million. In the first half of 2024, cash utilization is mainly the result of our research and development efforts, notably for Elative, our Phase 3 clinical trial of elafibranor in PBC (approved by the FDA in June 2024); UNVEIL-IT, our Phase 2 clinical trial of VS-01 in ACLF; GNS561, as part of our cholangiocarcinoma program; NTZ, as part of our ACLF program; and SRT-015, also as part of our ACLF program. Revenues and other income Revenues and other income amounted to €61.2 million in the first half of 2024, compared to €15.4 million in the first half of 2023. Substantially all revenue is attributable to our Collaboration and License Agreement with Ipsen and related Transition Services Agreement. Revenue growth is due to a €48.7 million milestone invoiced to Ipsen in June 2024 following the first commercial sale of Iqirvo in the U.S. The milestone was collected in August 2024. Operating expenses Operating expenses amounted to €30.0 million in the first half of 2024 (compared to €34.7 million in the first half of 2023). Substantially all of the decrease in operating expenses is due to research and development expenses, which amounted to €19.0 million in the first half of 2024 (compared to €25.6 million in the first half of 2023). Specifically, there was a decrease in: Contracting costs which amounted to €7.8 million in the first half of 2024 (compared to €14.4 million in the first half of 2023), primarily reflecting decreased activities related to Elative, following the FDA approval in June 2024, and Other expenses (maintenance, fees, travel and other taxes) which amounted to €2.8 million in the first half of 2024 (compared to €3.3 million in the first half of 2023), reflecting decreased activity as previously noted. Financial results For the half-year ended June 30, 2024, financial income amounted to a loss of €0.9 million, compared to a loss of €1.1 million for the same period in 2023. Net loss The first half of 2024 resulted in a net profit of €30.3 million, compared with a net loss of €20.9 million in the first half of 2023.

All financial information (unless indicated otherwise) is presented in thousands of euros (€). Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Position Assets Shareholders’ equity and liabilities Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations Condensed Statement of Cash Flows Comments on the condensed statement of net income for the periods ended June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2024 (1) Revenue and other income The Company’s revenue and other income mainly comprises revenue, the research tax credit, and other operating revenue. For the half-year ended June 30, 2024, total revenues and other income amounted to €61,199, compared with €15,374 for the same period in 2023. Revenues For the half-year ended June 30, 2024, revenue amounted to €58,973 compared with €11,482 for the same period in 2023. Revenue is primarily composed of: Licensing Agreement (Ipsen). In December 2021, GENFIT and Ipsen entered into an exclusive licensing agreement for elafibranor (marketed as Iqirvo), a Phase 3 asset evaluated in PBC, as part of a long-term global partnership ("Collaboration and License Agreement"). During the first six months of 2024: €48.7 million was attributable to a milestone invoiced to Ipsen in June 2024 following the first commercial sale of Iqirvo/elafibranor in the U.S. €9.3 million was attributable to the partial recognition of deferred revenue as noted in Note 20 - "Deferred income and revenue". €0.2 million was attributable to royalty revenue from U.S. sales of Iqirvo. During the first six months of 2023: €8.2 million was attributable to the partial recognition of deferred revenue as noted in Note 20 - "Deferred income and revenue". Transition Services Agreement (Ipsen). GENFIT and Ipsen entered into the Transition Services Agreement and Part B Transition Services Agreement, signed in April 2022 and September 2023 respectively, in order to facilitate the transition of certain services related to the Phase 3 Elative clinical trial until the complete transfer of the responsibility of the trial to Ipsen. During the first six months of 2024, services provided under this contract generated €0.8 million in revenue. During the first six months of 2023, services provided under this contract generated €3.2 million in revenue. Research Tax Credit (CIR) During the first six months of 2024, the CIR amounted to €2,108 in 2024 including €177 of legally required related interest, (€3,547 for the same period in 2023), due to a reduction in eligible research and development expenses. The CIR receivable amounted to €7,738 as of June 30, 2024, which comprises balances from 2023 onward (compared to €12,200 for the same period in 2023). Previously withheld balances from 2021 and 2022 have since been reimbursed on May 28, 2024 in the amount of €6,570 which includes legally required related interest of €177. We were subject to a tax audit by the French tax authorities on our tax returns or operations subject to review on the 2019 and 2020 periods (including the CIR claimed for these periods), which started on December 10, 2021 and is still ongoing at the date of this document. Other operating income During the first six months of 2024, the Group recognized €97 in “Other operating income” (€263 for the same period in 2023), mainly comprised of exchange gains on trade receivables. (2) Operating expenses by destination The tables below break operating expenses down by destination, mainly into research and development expenses, general and administrative expenses, and marketing and market access expenses. For the half-year ended June 30, 2024 operating expenses amounted to €29,977 (€34,673 for the same period in 2023). They include the following: Research and development expenses For the first six months of 2023, research and development expenses totaled €25.6 million. These expenses were comprised of €14.4 million in contracted research and development conducted by third parties, €6.3 million in employee expenses, €3.3 million in other expenses, €0.7 million in depreciation, amortization and impairment charges and €1.0 million in raw materials and consumables. For the first six months of 2024, research and development expenses totaled €19.0 million. These expenses were comprised of €7.8 million in contracted research and development conducted by third parties, €6.6 million in employee expenses, €2.8 million in other expenses, €0.7 million in depreciation, amortization and impairment charges and €1.1 million in raw materials and consumables. The decrease of €6.6 million in contracted research and development conducted by third parties is mainly due to: Decreasing costs related to the Elative product candidate (approved by the FDA in the US in June 2024 and marketed under the name Iqirvo) of €7.4 million, Increasing costs related to the SRT-015 product candidate of €0.5 million, and Increasing costs related to the VS-01 product candidate of €0.3 million. The increase of €0.3 million in employee expenses, consisting of wages, salaries, social security, pension costs and share-based compensation paid to employees in the research and development function, relates primarily to the increase in workforce (from 96 to 106 employees at June 30, 2023 and 2024, respectively). The decrease of €0.5 million in other expenses is mainly due to decreasing costs related to maintenance costs of €0.3 million and decreasing costs related to consultants of €0.2 million. General and administrative expenses For the first six months of 2023, general and administrative expenses totaled €9.1 million. These expenses were mainly comprised of €3.9 million in employee expenses and €4.6 million in other expenses. For the first six months of 2024, general and administrative expenses totaled €10.6 million. These expenses were mainly comprised of €4.4 million in employee expenses and €5.8 million in other expenses. The increase of €0.5 million in employee expenses in the general and administrative function was mainly due to the increase in workforce (from 56 to 61 employees at June 30, 2023 and 2024, respectively). The increase of €1.2 million in other expenses in the general and administrative function was mainly due to increases in i) maintenance costs of €0.7 million, ii) consulting costs of €0.2 million, iii) donations of €0.2 million, et iv) recruiting fees of €0.1 million. Marketing and market access expenses For the first six months of 2023, marketing and market access expenses totaled €0.5 million. These expenses were mainly comprised of €0.3 million in employee expenses and €0.2 million in other expenses. For the first six months of 2024, marketing and market access expenses totaled €0.4 million. These expenses were mainly comprised of €0.3 million in employee expenses and €0.1 million in other expenses. Marketing and market access expenses remained stable period over period. Reorganization and restructuring income (expenses) During the first half of 2023, the Group reversed the entire remaining RESOLVE-IT® provision consisting of unused building space, which are now in use. There was no reorganization and restructuring expense in 2024. (3) Financial income (expense) For the half-year ended June 30, 2024, financial income amounted to a loss of €0.9 million, compared to a loss of €1.1 million for the same period in 2023. For the first six months of 2024, this is primarily the result of interest expense of €2.3 million, realized and unrealized foreign exchange loss of €0.6 million, and €1.7 million in accrued and realized interest income. For the first six months of 2024, this is primarily the result of interest expense of €2.3 million, realized and unrealized foreign exchange loss of €42 thousand, and €1.3 million in accrued and realized interest income. (4) Net income (loss) The first half of 2024 resulted in net profit of €30,311 thousand compared with a net loss of €20,854 thousand in the first half of 2023. Comments on the Group’s Cash Flows for the periods ended June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2024. As of June 30, 2024, cash and cash equivalents amounted to €61,645. Over the period, change in cash flow by type of flow was as follows: (1) Cash flows provided by (used in) operating activities Cash flow used in operating activities amounted to an outflow of €11,187 thousand for the half-year ended June 30, 2024 compared with an outflow of €25,074 thousand for the half-year ended June 30, 2023. In the first half of 2024, this amount mainly stems from our research and development efforts; notably for Elative, our Phase 3 clinical trial of elafibranor in PBC (approved by the FDA in June 2024); UNVEIL-IT®, our Phase 2 clinical trial of VS-01 in ACLF; GNS561, as part of its cholangiocarcinoma program; and NTZ, as part of its ACLF program. In the first half of 2023, this amount mainly stems from our net loss of €20.9 million, which is largely the result of our research and development efforts; notably for Elative, our Phase 3 clinical trial of elafibranor in PBC; UNVEIL-IT®, our Phase 2 clinical trial of VS-01 in ACLF; GNS561, as part of its cholangiocarcinoma program; and NTZ, as part of its ACLF program. The change between the first half of 2024 and 2023 is further explained by the receipt of a milestone of €13.3 million from IPSEN in 2024 (incurred and recorded in 2023, upon the acceptance of the new drug application filing with the FDA and the filing of the marketing authorization application with the EMA for the accelerated approval of elafibranor). These cash flows reflect GENFIT’s business, which requires significant research and development efforts, and generates expenses that change in line with progress on the Company’s research programs, net of its operating revenues. (2) Cash flows provided by (used in) investing activities Cash flow used in investing activities amounted to €-687 thousand in the first half of 2024, compared with €2,682 thousand in cash flow provided in the first half of 2023. These cash flows include acquisitions, disposals and repayments of fixed assets and financial assets. (3) Cash flows provided by (used in) financing activities Cash flow used in financing activities amounted to €-4,225 thousand in the first half of 2024, compared with €-1,764 thousand in the first half of 2023. In the first half of 2024, these cash flows mainly reflect financial interest received and paid. The decrease is mainly explained by loan repayments for the period. ABOUT GENFIT GENFIT is a late-stage biopharmaceutical company committed to improving the lives of patients with rare, life-threatening liver diseases whose medical needs remain largely unmet. GENFIT is a pioneer in liver disease research and development with a rich history and a solid scientific heritage spanning more than two decades. Today, GENFIT has built up a diversified and rapidly expanding R&D portfolio of programs at various stages of development. The Company focuses on Acute-on-Chronic Liver Failure (ACLF). Its ACLF franchise includes five assets under development: VS-01, NTZ, SRT-015, CLM-022 and VS-02-HE, based on complementary mechanisms of action using different routes of administration. Other assets target other serious diseases, such as cholangiocarcinoma (CCA), urea cycle disorder (UCD) and organic acidemia (OA). GENFIT's expertise in the development of high-potential molecules from early to advanced stages, and in pre-commercialization, was demonstrated with the success of the 52-week Phase 3 Elative study evaluating elafibranor in Primary Biliary Cholangitis (PBC). Elafibranor, a 'first-in-class' molecule developed by GENFIT from initial discovery to the conclusion of a 52-week Phase 3 study, is now marketed and commercialized in the United States by Ipsen under the trademark Iqirvo® since June 2024. Beyond therapies, GENFIT also has a diagnostic franchise, including NIS2+® in Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH, formerly known as NASH for non-alcoholic steatohepatitis) and TS-01 focusing on blood ammonia levels. GENFIT is headquartered in Lille, France and has offices in Paris (France), Zurich (Switzerland) and Cambridge, MA (USA). The Company is listed on the Nasdaq Global Select Market and on the Euronext regulated market in Paris, Compartment B (Nasdaq and Euronext: GNFT). In 2021, Ipsen became one of GENFIT's largest shareholders, acquiring an 8% stake in the Company's capital.
