Our upcoming inclusion in the Swiss Market Index, Switzerland’s leading blue-chip equity index, effective September 21, is an important milestone in our journey as a listed company and further recognition of Galderma’s progress. Building on this momentum, we are raising our full-year net sales growth guidance as we continue to advance our dermatology powerhouse ambition.” FLEMMING ØRNSKOV, M.D., MPH CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER GALDERMA Galderma is on a strong trajectory in 2026 to deliver on another year of opportunities, as it continues to execute on its proven, growth-driven integrated dermatology strategy. Growth for the year is expected to be broad-based across its portfolio, complemented by new launches and geographic expansion. For the first half of 2026, Galderma achieved net sales of 3,134 million USD, surpassing 3 billion USD for the first time in the first six months of a year. Year-on-year net sales growth was 24.6% at constant currency, predominantly driven by volume and complemented by favorable mix. Excluding the anticipated effects of Nemluvio’s gross-to-net pricing evolution, price contributed positively to growth. Growth remained strong in the second quarter of the year, with net sales up 23.8% year-on-year at constant currency. Net sales growth remained broad-based, with double-digit growth in most of Galderma’s top 10 markets and across all product categories. Galderma continued to outperform the market in each of its product categories. Injectable Aesthetics Injectable Aesthetics net sales for the first six months were 1,437 million USD, with year-on-year growth of 12.1% at constant currency. U.S. phasing effects, favorable in the first quarter, unwound in the second quarter. Neuromodulators delivered net sales of 826 million USD, up 13.4% year-on-year at constant currency. Executing on its Neuromodulator portfolio strategy, Galderma continued to gain market share in both the U.S. and International markets. Dysport® continued to grow in all top markets, with particularly strong performance across Asia and Latin America as well as continued double-digit growth in Europe where Relfydess has been launched. Relfydess built further momentum in existing markets, supported by positive feedback from healthcare professionals and patients, and was launched in three additional markets, including its first Asian market, Hong Kong. Galderma also continued to advance Relfydess regulatory reviews, with the product now approved in 33 markets and regulatory filings ongoing in additional territories. As announced on July 1, Galderma received a recent Complete Response Letter (CRL) from the U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA) addressing remaining observations on the manufacturing site and analytical method optimization. Galderma is fully committed to resolving these topics promptly and to continue working constructively with the FDA; advancing RelabotulinumtoxinA in the U.S. remains a top priority. In light of strong Neuromodulators momentum in both International markets and the U.S., Galderma does not expect the U.S. CRL to impact its ability to deliver on its 2023-2027 mid-term guidance, as updated in March 2026. Fillers & Biostimulators achieved net sales of 611 million USD, up 10.5% year-on-year at constant currency, despite continued softness in the Fillers market. Galderma gained share in both the U.S. and International markets in Fillers & Biostimulators, with continued double-digit growth for Sculptra® in both geographies. Galderma also advanced its portfolio and geographic expansion, including ongoing scaling of Sculptra in China and new Restylane® indications in the U.S. In Fillers, Galderma rolled out the Restylane SkinBoosters™ SmartClick™ syringe in China and received its third approval for Restylane SHAYPE™, now approved in Thailand for chin augmentation. In Biostimulators, Sculptra was launched in Indonesia and approved in India, as well as in Australia for body indications, enabling training for use in the gluteal area, posterior thighs, décolletage, and upper arms. Dermatological Skincare Dermatological Skincare net sales for the first six months were 848 million USD, with year-on-year growth of 16.4% at constant currency. Galderma maintained strong growth momentum across its Dermatological Skincare flagship brands, Cetaphil® and Alastin®. As anticipated, growth was strong benefitting from a lower comparable base in the period. Growth was positive in both the U.S. and International markets, with double-digit growth for Cetaphil in fast-growing International markets and for Alastin in both geographies. Market outperformance continues to be driven by focused execution, innovation and portfolio synergies, with e-commerce remaining the fastest-growing channel. Cetaphil performance remains outstanding in China, while markets globally are benefitting from scaling existing innovation, including Cetaphil Skin Activator in the U.S., Cetaphil Baby in India, and Cetaphil Purifying Acne serum in China. Alastin continues to outperform the physician-dispensed market in the U.S. while Galderma continues to invest in its expansion in International markets, with recent launches in China, Australia and now Japan and Taiwan. Therapeutic Dermatology Therapeutic Dermatology net sales for the first six months were 848 million USD, up 67.9% year-on-year at constant currency. Growth remained very strong, driven by the ramp-up of Nemluvio, complemented by higher-than-expected growth from the mature Therapeutic Dermatology portfolio during the period against a low comparative base and benefitting from delayed generic entries. Nemluvio continues on a strong launch trajectory globally, with net sales for the first half of the year of 433 million USD. The U.S. continues to represent the vast majority of sales, with a greater contribution from atopic dermatitis than prurigo nodularis. Nemluvio also contributed more than half of Therapeutic Dermatology net sales overall for the first time. In the U.S., Nemluvio paid new patient starts (NBRx) from mid-June to early July 2026 trended at approximately 42% market share in prurigo nodularis and 9% in atopic dermatitis. Underlying demand remains strong, as the majority of patients starting treatment continue to be new to biologics. In International markets, which represent only a small portion of total Nemluvio sales, the launch trajectory continues to be even stronger. In addition, regulatory reviews and approvals for Nemluvio continue to progress, including the recent approval in Brazil for both prurigo nodularis and atopic dermatitis, alongside additional reimbursement wins in key International markets that support broader patient access. Galderma is committed to its mature Therapeutic Dermatology portfolio globally, continuing to expand through new geographic launches and lifecycle management of its molecules, even in the face of strong generic pressures. This includes the recent U.S. FDA approval of Differin® Epiduo® Acne Gel (Adapalene 0.1% and Benzoyl Peroxide 2.5% Acne Treatment) for over-the-counter (OTC) use in ages 12 years and older, marking an important Prescription-to-OTC transition in acne care. Galderma continues to reinforce its science-led innovation and medical education in dermatology. This includes advancing its R&D pipeline across product categories, while exploring external opportunities. It also includes generating new scientific data and insights to be presented at global congresses and company-led medical education events. In terms of its innovative R&D pipeline, Galderma progressed two clinical-stage Biostimulator assets in Injectable Aesthetics, multiple development programs with differentiated innovation in Dermatological Skincare, and potential new indications for nemolizumab in Therapeutic Dermatology. For nemolizumab specifically, this includes the completion of enrollment in the Phase II Chronic Pruritus of Unknown Origin (CPUO) trial and ongoing enrollment in the Phase II Systemic Sclerosis (SSc) trial, with a new SSc publication in the Journal of Scleroderma and Related Disorders. It also includes the ongoing submission preparation of nemolizumab in children aged 2 to 11 with moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis in the U.S., following clinically meaningful late-breaking data presented in the first quarter. Galderma leveraged its leading presence at global congresses and company-led platforms to present new clinical data and real-world insights. At the European Academy of Allergy and Clinical Immunology (EAACI) Congress 2026, Galderma presented late-breaking Nemluvio data including insights on fast onset of action in adolescents with moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis. Additionally, Galderma shared insights from two large-scale global surveys underscoring the patient needs addressed by its Injectable Aesthetics portfolio, including the world’s most extensive skin quality profiling survey and a survey on patient and healthcare professional expectations with anti-wrinkle treatments. For the first half of 2026, Galderma delivered 802 million USD in Core EBITDA, growing 42.8% year-on-year at constant currency. Core EBITDA margin expanded to 25.6%, representing a significant 328 basis point improvement at constant currency compared to the first half of 2025. Core EBITDA growth outpaced net sales growth, ahead of expectations for the period reflecting strong net sales growth, phasing of operating expenses, and a one-time tariff refund. Improvements in operating expenses more than offset the gross margin impact of product mix and the anticipated gross-to-net evolution and higher royalty rates on Nemluvio as it continues its strong ramp-up.Growth was even greater in Core net income4 and Core EPS, driven by strong Core EBITDA and lower financing costs, benefitting from the successful refinancing in March of the Term Loan via a Eurobond issuance. Core net income for the first half was 547 million USD, up 66.3%, and Core EPS was 2.34 USD, up 68.5%. In addition to the dividend payment of 104 million USD, Galderma continued to support shareholder returns with share repurchases of 302 million USD, held in treasury, executed in March during the final accelerated bookbuild offering of Galderma shares by the EQT-led consortium of investors. Strong cash generation combined with the strong EBITDA growth allowed Galderma to further enhance its financial profile, with net leverage5 reduced to 1.2x at the end of June 2026. 2026 remains a key year to capitalize on opportunities and drive net sales growth. The five key opportunity areas for the year include 1) significant launches, including the strong uptake of Nemluvio and Relfydess, the geographic expansion of Restylane and Sculptra, and ongoing innovation in Dermatological Skincare, 2) further market share gains, 3) a strengthened financial profile, 4) a shift to long-term growth with increasing strategic optionality, and 5) dynamic commercial investments to continue to drive growth. Based on a stronger-than-anticipated trajectory in the first half of the year, especially in Dermatological Skincare, Therapeutic Dermatology and Neuromodulators, Galderma is raising its net sales guidance for the full year. Net sales growth is now expected in the range of 19-21% at constant currency, up from previously 17-20%. Galderma is confirming its margin expansion expectation for the year, with a Core EBITDA margin of approximately 26% at constant currency, with the intent to continue investing behind growth opportunities in the second half. The 2026 full-year guidance factors in Galderma’s manageable exposure to announced U.S. tariffs and expected effects from recent related proclamations, along with the ability to absorb potential consumer demand deterioration in the second half of 2026 given the volatile political and macroeconomic environment. While guidance is at constant currency, based on spot rates at the end of June 2026, foreign exchange is expected to have a positive impact on net sales and Core EBITDA absolutes, but a negative impact on reported Core EBITDA margin. The evolution of Galderma’s exposure to key foreign exchange currency pairs is available in the Appendix. Galderma now plans to provide mid-term guidance beyond 2027 in the first quarter of 2027, following discussions expected later this year with the U.S. FDA on the BLA resubmission of RelabotulinumtoxinA. Galderma will host a financial results call today at 13:00 CEST to discuss its first half 2026 results and respond to questions from financial analysts.

For nemolizumab specifically, this includes the completion of enrollment in the Phase II Chronic Pruritus of Unknown Origin (CPUO) trial and ongoing enrollment in the Phase II Systemic Sclerosis (SSc) trial, with a new SSc publication in the Journal of Scleroderma and Related Disorders. It also includes the ongoing submission preparation of nemolizumab in children aged 2 to 11 with moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis in the U.S., following clinically meaningful late-breaking data presented in the first quarter. Galderma leveraged its leading presence at global congresses and company-led platforms to present new clinical data and real-world insights. At the European Academy of Allergy and Clinical Immunology (EAACI) Congress 2026, Galderma presented late-breaking Nemluvio data including insights on fast onset of action in adolescents with moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis. Additionally, Galderma shared insights from two large-scale global surveys underscoring the patient needs addressed by its Injectable Aesthetics portfolio, including the world’s most extensive skin quality profiling survey and a survey on patient and healthcare professional expectations with anti-wrinkle treatments. Financial scorecard For the first half of 2026, Galderma delivered 802 million USD in Core EBITDA, growing 42.8% year-on-year at constant currency. Core EBITDA margin expanded to 25.6%, representing a significant 328 basis point improvement at constant currency compared to the first half of 2025. Core EBITDA growth outpaced net sales growth, ahead of expectations for the period reflecting strong net sales growth, phasing of operating expenses, and a one-time tariff refund. Improvements in operating expenses more than offset the gross margin impact of product mix and the anticipated gross-to-net evolution and higher royalty rates on Nemluvio as it continues its strong ramp-up. Growth was even greater in Core net income 4 and Core EPS, driven by strong Core EBITDA and lower financing costs, benefitting from the successful refinancing in March of the Term Loan via a Eurobond issuance. Core net income for the first half was 547 million USD, up 66.3%, and Core EPS was 2.34 USD, up 68.5%. In addition to the dividend payment of 104 million USD, Galderma continued to support shareholder returns with share repurchases of 302 million USD, held in treasury, executed in March during the final accelerated bookbuild offering of Galderma shares by the EQT-led consortium of investors. Strong cash generation combined with the strong EBITDA growth allowed Galderma to further enhance its financial profile, with net leverage 5 reduced to 1.2x at the end of June 2026. Outlook 2026 remains a key year to capitalize on opportunities and drive net sales growth. The five key opportunity areas for the year include 1) significant launches, including the strong uptake of Nemluvio and Relfydess, the geographic expansion of Restylane and Sculptra, and ongoing innovation in Dermatological Skincare, 2) further market share gains, 3) a strengthened financial profile, 4) a shift to long-term growth with increasing strategic optionality, and 5) dynamic commercial investments to continue to drive growth. Based on a stronger-than-anticipated trajectory in the first half of the year, especially in Dermatological Skincare, Therapeutic Dermatology and Neuromodulators, Galderma is raising its net sales guidance for the full year. Net sales growth is now expected in the range of 19-21% at constant currency, up from previously 17-20%. Galderma is confirming its margin expansion expectation for the year, with a Core EBITDA margin of approximately 26% at constant currency, with the intent to continue investing behind growth opportunities in the second half. The 2026 full-year guidance factors in Galderma’s manageable exposure to announced U.S. tariffs and expected effects from recent related proclamations, along with the ability to absorb potential consumer demand deterioration in the second half of 2026 given the volatile political and macroeconomic environment. While guidance is at constant currency, based on spot rates at the end of June 2026, foreign exchange is expected to have a positive impact on net sales and Core EBITDA absolutes, but a negative impact on reported Core EBITDA margin. The evolution of Galderma’s exposure to key foreign exchange currency pairs is available in the Appendix. Galderma now plans to provide mid-term guidance beyond 2027 in the first quarter of 2027, following discussions expected later this year with the U.S. FDA on the BLA resubmission of RelabotulinumtoxinA.

All ratios, subtotals and variances are calculated using the underlying amount rather than the presented rounded amount. Constant currency year-on-year growth is defined as the annual growth rate of net sales excluding the impact of exchange rates movements. The impact of changes in foreign exchange rates are excluded by translating all reported revenues during the two periods at average exchange rates in effect during the previous year. Core EBITDA is defined as EBITDA excluding the following items that are deemed non-core: acquisition and disposal; integration and carve-out related income and expenses; onerous contracts; business disposal gains and losses; litigation related items as well as impairment of PPE and intangible assets. In addition, non-Core items include other income and expense items that management considers non-Core, as well as restructuring and reorganization items expected to accumulate within approximately a year to be over a 2 M USD threshold. Items that management considers non-Core may include, but are not limited to carve-out and build-up-related project costs as well as post-acquisition-related accounting impacts Core EPS is calculated as Core net income divided by the weighted average number of outstanding shares during the period. Core Net Income is defined as net income adjusted for the same items that are treated as exceptional for purposes of defining Core EBITDA, as well as amortization of intangible assets and foreign exchange gains and losses on financing activities. Taxes on the adjustments between IFRS net income and Core Net Income take into account, for each individual item included in the adjustment, the tax rate that will finally be applicable to the item based on the jurisdiction where the adjustment will finally have a tax impact. Leverage is defined as Total Net Indebtedness divided by Core EBITDA on a twelve-months rolling basis. H1 2025 adjustments include 4 M USD litigation, 6 M USD onerous items, 2 M USD M&A, 9 M USD impairments, 4 M USD restructuring, 13 M USD for operating FX losses. H1 2026 adjustments include 11 M USD litigation, 5 M USD restructuring, 2 M USD other items; offset by 9 M USD for operating FX gains. Indebtedness includes financial debt and lease liabilities. Includes assumptions for other income and expenses related to tangible asset impairments, ongoing litigation and onerous items, restructuring charges and others, excluding M&A fees and the impact from Operating Fx. On reported profit before tax. Includes a one-time, non-cash benefit from recognizing deferred tax assets on past tax losses Includes interest income and interest expense, excluding Fx impact.
