Recent Business Highlights
The FDA accepted Alvotech’s Biologics License Application (BLA) for AVT80, a proposed biosimilar to Entyvio
®
(vedolizumab) in prefilled syringe and autoinjector presentations for subcutaneous administration. Alvotech is responsible for development and manufacturing, while Teva has licensed the U.S. commercial rights.
Alvotech and its commercial partner Advanz Pharma submitted the first known regulatory submission worldwide for a proposed biosimilar to Eylea HD (aflibercept 8 mg). The marketing application was submitted to the European Medicines Agency.
Alvotech signed an agreement with Lotus Pharmaceuticals covering the commercialization rights in the U.S. and selected Asian markets for AVT34, a proposed biosimilar to Imfinzi
®
(durvalumab) and AVT87, a proposed biosimilar to Hemlibra
®
(emicizumab). Alvotech retains the right to also commercialize both products directly in the U.S. alongside Lotus.
Alvotech and LOTTE Biologics entered a long-term partnership under which LOTTE biologics will manufacture drug substance for multiple biosimilars at its facility in Syracuse, New York. The arrangement expands Alvotech’s U.S. manufacturing footprint, adding additional capacity and flexibility to its global supply network.
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved a new process for manufacturing Simlandi
®
, Alvotech’s biosimilar to Humira
®
, in the Reykjavik manufacturing facility. The new process more than doubles output per batch, allowing the same quantity of Simlandi to be produced in fewer batches and thus freeing up manufacturing capacity for other products.
The FDA also approved the production of drug substance for Simlandi
®
in a second production suite at Alvotech’s Reykjavik site, resulting in added flexibility and increased manufacturing capacity.
Lisa Graver, Chief Executive Officer, comments:
“Our commercial performance strengthened in the third quarter, with product and service revenue reaching $58 million, up 6% sequentially and 78% year over year. Following the completion of the manufacturing improvement program in the first half of the year, we are continuing to increase supply to meet strong underlying demand across our markets.
“The two recent FDA approvals for Simlandi at our Reykjavík facility represent significant milestones. The addition of a second approved manufacturing suite and an enhanced process that more than doubles output per batch give us greater capacity and operational flexibility to support our expanding commercial portfolio.
“We have also made important advances in our pipeline, including regulatory milestones for our proposed biosimilars to Entyvio and high-dose Eylea. Our agreement with Lotus creates an opportunity for Alvotech to participate directly in U.S. commercialization, while our partnerships with LOTTE Biologics and Fujifilm strengthen our future manufacturing network. Our priority now is to translate this progress into planned product deliveries in the fourth quarter, while continuing to build the platform for long-term growth.”
Outlook for the Full Year 2026
Alvotech maintains its full-year 2026 guidance for total revenue of $650-$700 million and EBITDA of $180-$220 million, with performance now expected toward the lower end of the range. The Company remains focused on executing planned product deliveries in the fourth quarter, as production and commercial supply continue to ramp up following the manufacturing improvement program completed in the first half of the year.

Forward Looking Statements
Certain statements in this communication may be considered “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, as amended. Forward-looking statements include, for example, Alvotech’s expectations regarding competitive advantages, business prospects and opportunities including pipeline product development, future plans and intentions, regulatory submissions, review and interactions, the potential approval and commercial launch of its product candidates, the timing of regulatory approval, market launches and financial projections. Such forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties, and other factors which could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are based upon estimates and assumptions that, while considered reasonable by Alvotech and its management, are inherently uncertain and are inherently subject to risks, variability, and contingencies, many of which are beyond Alvotech’s control. Factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from current expectations include, but are not limited to factors set forth in the sections entitled “Risk Factors” and “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” in documents that Alvotech may from time-to-time furnish with the SEC. There may be additional risks that Alvotech does not presently know or that Alvotech currently believes are immaterial that could also cause actual results to differ from those contained in the forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are provided for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to serve as, and must not be relied on by an investor as, a guarantee, assurance, prediction or definitive statement of a fact or probability. Alvotech does not undertake any duty to update these forward-looking statements or to inform the recipient of any matters of which any of them becomes aware of which may affect any matter referred to in this communication. Alvotech disclaims any and all liability for any loss or damage (whether foreseeable or not) suffered or incurred by any person or entity as a result of anything contained or omitted from this communication and such liability is expressly disclaimed.
Non IFRS Financial Measures
This Presentation may include projections of certain financial measures not presented in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) including, but not limited to, Adjusted Revenues, EBITDA and certain ratios and other metrics derived therefrom. These non-IFRS financial measures are not measures of financial performance in accordance with IFRS and may exclude items that are significant in understanding and assessing the Company’s financial results. Therefore, these measures should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to net income, cash flows from operations or other measures of profitability, liquidity or performance under IFRS. You should be aware that the Company’s presentation of these measures may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures used by other companies. The Company believes these non-IFRS measures of financial results provide useful information to management and investors regarding certain financial and business trends relating to the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. The Company believes that the use of these non-IFRS financial measures provide an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating ongoing operating results and trends and in comparing the Company’s financial measures with other similar companies, many of which present similar non-IFRS financial measures to investors. These non-IFRS financial measures are subject to inherent limitations as they reflect the exercise of judgments by management about which expense and income are excluded or included in determining these non-IFRS financial measures. Due to the high variability and difficulty in making accurate forecasts and projections of some of the information excluded from these projected measures, together with some of the excluded information not being ascertainable or accessible, the Company is unable to quantify certain amounts that would be required to be included in the most directly comparable IFRS financial measures without unreasonable effort. Consequently, no disclosure of estimated comparable IFRS measures is included and no reconciliation of the forward-looking non-IFRS financial measures is included. For the same reasons, the Company is unable to address the probable significance of the unavailable information, which could be material to future results.
