Financial Performance First Three Months of 2026

• Revenue was $896 million for the first three months of 2026 compared to $715 million for the first three months of 2025. The increase of $181 million, or 25%, was primarily driven by higher DARZALEX^® and Kesimpta^® royalties achieved under our collaborations with Johnson & Johnson (J&J) and Novartis Pharma AG (Novartis), respectively, and higher EPKINLY net product sales.
• Royalty revenue was $742 million in the first three months of 2026 compared to $589 million in the first three months of 2025, an increase of $153 million, or 26%. The increase in royalties was driven by higher net sales of DARZALEX and Kesimpta.
• Net sales of DARZALEX, including sales of the subcutaneous (SC) product (daratumumab and hyaluronidase-fihj, sold under the tradename DARZALEX FASPRO^® in the U.S.) by J&J were $3,964 million in the first three months of 2026 compared to $3,237 million in the first three months of 2025, an increase of $727 million or 22%.
• Cost of product sales were $65 million for the first three months of 2026 compared to $42 million for the first three months of 2025. The increase of $23 million, or 55%, was primarily driven by the profit-sharing amounts payable to AbbVie Inc. (AbbVie) related to EPKINLY sales.
• Operating expenses, excluding Acquisition and integration related charges, were $606 million for the first three months of 2026 compared to $485 million for the first three months of 2025. The increase of $121 million, or 25%, was primarily driven by the expansion of our product pipeline, including advancement of Rina-S and petosemtamab, and the continued investment in Genmab’s global commercialization capabilities to prepare for the upcoming projected launches of Rina-S and petosemtamab.
• Acquisition and integration related charges, which related primarily to severance and retention in connection with the acquisition of Merus, were $45 million in the first three months of 2026.
• Amortization of acquired intangible assets was $12 million for the first three months of 2026 compared to $3 million for the first three months of 2025. The increase of $9 million, was primarily driven by the amortization of the Merus technology platform acquired in December 2025.
• Operating profit was $180 million in the first three months of 2026 compared to $188 million in the first three months of 2025. Operating Profit excluding Acquisition and integration related charges and Amortization of acquired intangible assets, was $237 million in the first three months of 2026 compared to $191 million in the first three months of 2025.
