Prime Medicine (PRME) – Q2 2025 10-Q Snapshot

Revenue: $1.1 m collaboration revenue (none in Q2 24); H1 revenue $2.6 m (+335% YoY).
Expenses: R&D $41.4 m (-4% YoY); G&A $13.1 m (+4%). Total op-ex $54.5 m; loss from operations $53.4 m.
Net loss: $52.6 m or $0.41/sh vs $55.3 m ($0.46) prior-year; H1 loss $104.5 m.
Liquidity: Cash & cash equivalents $53.8 m (-70% YTD); investments $48.0 m; total liquid resources $101.8 m. Post-period Aug-25 equity raise added net $138.2 m, giving management >12-month runway.
Balance sheet shifts: Right-of-use assets up to $120.2 m and non-current lease liabilities to $112.5 m following new Cambridge & Watertown facilities. Stockholders’ equity fell to $60.9 m (vs $153.1 m YE24) on continuing losses.
Strategic updates: Focus pivots to in-vivo liver programs (Wilson’s, AATD) targeting INDs 1H-26; additional $24 m funding commitment from Cystic Fibrosis Foundation, incl. $6 m equity.
Risks: Ongoing arbitration with Beam Therapeutics over AATD program could impose damages or halt development; high cash burn (~$90 m H1) and dilution from stock issuance remain concerns.

Management believes current cash plus August offering funds operations through at least Q3 26 while programs advance toward first clinical filings.

Insights

TL;DR Narrowing loss, but cash burn heavy; August raise prevents near-term liquidity crunch while pipeline pivots to liver franchise.

PRME trimmed quarterly loss by 5 % YoY and slowed R&D spend, yet still consumed $90 m operating cash in H1. Liquid funds fell to $102 m before the quarter-end; the $138 m follow-on closed in August restores ~$240 m of available capital, buying roughly 18-24 months at current burn. Revenue remains immaterial, so valuation hinges on delivering INDs for Wilson’s disease and AATD in 2026. Deferred revenue of $68 m from BMS collaboration provides modest non-dilutive funding. Investors should monitor execution of cost-control measures (option repricing, workforce reduction) and progress toward liver INDs, as further equity raises are likely once current runway is exhausted.

TL;DR Beam arbitration and lease obligations add material risk despite fresh capital and CF Foundation support.

The Beam dispute threatens PRME’s flagship AATD program; an adverse ruling could require program transfer or damages, undermining the liver strategy. Lease liabilities ballooned to $120 m ROU assets with $195 m undiscounted payments, creating fixed-cost rigidity. Although the CF Foundation’s $24 m commitment validates pulmonary indications, it is milestone-dependent and modest relative to burn. Equity dilution (44 m shares issued at $3.30) and option repricing reflect limited financing alternatives. Overall risk profile remains elevated until litigation clarity and clinical proof-of-concept emerge.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

1.Nature of the Business and Basis of Presentation

Prime Medicine, Inc., together with its consolidated subsidiary (the “Company”) is a biotechnology company committed to delivering a new class of differentiated one-time curative genetic therapies. The Company is deploying Prime Editing technology, which it believes is a versatile, precise, and efficient gene editing technology. The Company was incorporated in the State of Delaware in September 2019. Its principal offices are in Cambridge, Massachusetts.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Since its inception, the Company has devoted substantially all of its resources to building its Prime editing platform and advancing development of its portfolio of programs, establishing and protecting its intellectual property, conducting research and development activities, organizing and staffing the company, business planning, raising capital and providing general and administrative support for these operations. To date, the Company has funded its operations primarily with proceeds from sales of preferred stock, from public offerings, and private placement of its common stock, and through payments from its collaboration partners.

In August 2025, the Company issued and sold 43,700,000 shares of its common stock, including 5,700,000 shares pursuant to the exercise of the underwriters’ option to purchase additional shares, at a price to the public of $3.30 per share. As a result of the offering, the Company received approximately $138.2 million in net proceeds, after deducting underwriting discounts, commissions and estimated offering costs of $6.0 million.

Since its inception, the Company has incurred substantial losses and, as of June 30, 2025, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $791.7 million. The Company expects to generate operating losses and negative operating cash flows for the foreseeable future. The Company further expects that its cash, cash equivalents, and investments as of June 30, 2025 of $101.8 million, along with the $138.2 million in net proceeds received from the sale of common stock in August 2025 discussed above, will be sufficient to fund its operations for at least the next twelve months from the date of issuance of these financial statements.

Risks and Uncertainties

The Company is subject to risks and uncertainties common to early stage companies in the biotechnology industry, including, but not limited to, completing preclinical studies and clinical trials, obtaining regulatory approval for product candidates, market acceptance of products, development by competitors of new technological innovations, dependence on key personnel, the ability to attract and retain qualified employees, reliance on third-party organizations, protection of proprietary technology, compliance with government regulations, and the ability to raise additional capital to fund operations. The Company’s product candidates currently under development will require significant additional research and development efforts, including extensive preclinical and clinical testing and regulatory approval prior to commercialization. These efforts require significant amounts of additional capital, adequate personnel and infrastructure, and extensive compliance-reporting capabilities. Even if the Company’s development efforts are successful, it is uncertain when, if ever, the Company will realize significant revenue from product sales.

The Company will need to raise additional capital to support its continuing operations and to pursue its growth strategy. Until such time as the Company can generate significant revenue from product sales, if ever, it expects to finance its operations through a combination of private and public equity offerings, debt financings, collaborations, strategic alliances, licensing, or other arrangements with third parties, or other similar transactions. The Company may be unable to raise additional capital or enter into such other agreements when needed on favorable terms or at all. The inability to raise capital as and when needed would have a negative impact on the Company’s financial

condition and its ability to pursue its business strategy. The Company will need to generate significant revenue to achieve profitability, and it may never do so.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements reflect the operations of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary. Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). Any reference in these notes to applicable guidance is meant to refer to the authoritative GAAP as found in the ASC and Accounting Standards Updates (“ASU”) of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”).

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of Prime Medicine, Inc. are unaudited. The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the audited annual consolidated financial statements and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments, necessary for the fair statement of the Company’s financial position as of June 30, 2025, the results of its operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, the condensed consolidated statements of stockholders’ equity for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, and its cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024. The financial data and other information disclosed in these notes related to the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 are also unaudited. The results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2025, any other interim periods, or any future year or period. The condensed consolidated balance sheet data as of December 31, 2024 was derived from our audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP. These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2024, and notes thereto, which are included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K that was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on February 28, 2025.

2.Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The Company’s significant accounting policies are disclosed in Note 2, Summary of significant accounting policies, in the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024, and notes thereto, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K that was filed with the SEC on February 28, 2025. Since the date of those financial statements, there have been no material changes to its significant accounting policies, except as noted below.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Significant estimates and assumptions reflected within these condensed consolidated financial statements include, but are not limited to, the valuation of the Company’s common stock and stock-based awards. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience, known trends and other market-specific or other relevant factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates its estimates, as there are changes in circumstances, facts and experience. Actual results may differ materially from those estimates or assumptions.

Segment Information

Under ASC 280, Segment Reporting, operating segment is a component of a public entity that 1) engages in business activities from which it may recognize revenues and incur expenses, 2) its operating results are regularly reviewed by the entity’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) to make decisions about resource allocation or performance assessment, and 3) its discrete financial information is available. The Company operates and manages its business as a single segment for the purposes of assessing performance and making operating decisions.

Our chief executive officer, who is the CODM, manages and allocates resources to the operations of our company on a total company basis by assessing the overall level of resources available and how to best deploy these resources across functions and research and development projects that are in line with our long-term company-wide strategic goals. In making these decisions, the CODM uses consolidated financial information for purposes of evaluating performance, forecasting future period financial results, allocating resources and setting incentive targets. The CODM performs this assessment based on the Company’s consolidated net loss. Through this analysis, the CODM assesses performance by comparing actual net loss verses the budget, and then decides how to allocate resources to invest in the Company’s research and development programs. The measure of segment assets is reported on the consolidated balance sheets as total assets.

The following table contains additional information on our consolidated net loss, including significant segment expenses:

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which requires enhanced income tax disclosures, including specific categories and disaggregation of information in the effective tax rate reconciliation, disaggregated information related to income taxes paid, income or loss from continuing operations before income tax expense or benefit, and income tax expense or benefit from continuing operations. This guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of this pronouncement on its related disclosures.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses, which requires more detailed information about specified categories of expenses included in certain expense captions presented on the face of the income statement. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and for interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments may be applied either (1) prospectively to financial statements issued for reporting periods after the effective date of this ASU or (2) retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this ASU will have on its disclosures.

Other accounting standards that have been issued by the FASB or other standards-setting bodies that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements upon adoption.

6.Leases

The Company leases office and laboratory space under various non-cancelable operating leases. The Company’s significant lease agreements are disclosed in Note 9, Leases, in the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024, and notes thereto, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K that was filed with the SEC on February 28, 2025. Since the date of those financial statements, there have been no changes to the Company’s significant agreements except as described below.

60 First Street, Cambridge, Massachusetts Lease

In November 2021, the Company entered into a lease for three floors of office and laboratory space in Cambridge, Massachusetts, with rent commencing in March 2024, subject to any credits pursuant to the terms of the lease (the “60 First Street Lease”). Subsequent to the initial non-cancelable term of the lease of ten years, the Company has an option to extend the lease for an additional period of ten years with the rent during the extension term being the then fair market rent. The Company secured the lease with a $13.1 million security deposit, which was recorded as restricted cash on the condensed consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

Accounting Considerations

The Company determined that the lease contained three separate lease components, each of which represents a right of use that the Company can benefit from on its own and neither of which are highly dependent nor highly related to each other. The Company allocated the consideration among the three lease components based on their relative fair market values.

In accordance with ASC 842, Leases, the lease commenced for one of the lease components in March 2024 and the Company recorded a right-of-use asset of $44.9 million, and a corresponding lease liability of $33.6 million on the lease commencement date; this included a reclass of $11.3 million from prepaid expenses to right-of-use asset related to build out costs which were determined to be owned by the lessor. In March 2025, the Company determined that the lease commenced on the remaining two lease components and recorded right-of-use assets of $76.8 million, and a corresponding lease liability of $78.6 million on the lease commencement date. As the exercise of the option to extend the lease term is not reasonably certain, the Company will recognize lease expense for all lease components through February 2034.

In June 2024, the Company filed a complaint in Massachusetts Superior Court against NW Cambridge Property Owner, LLC (“NWC”), the Company’s landlord at 60 First Street, alleging that NWC had breached the 60 First Street Lease by, among other reasons, refusing to provide the Company with certain rental credits for the late delivery of the leased space. While this lawsuit is pending, the Company continued to make the disputed payments under the 60 First Street Lease under protest. The disputed payments are recorded within other current assets on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. Total payments made under dispute was $13.9 million, and $10.8 million as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.

Arsenal Street, Watertown, Massachusetts Leases

In August 2024, the Company entered into the third amendment to its existing lease for approximately 16,000 square feet of combined laboratory and office space at 480 Arsenal Street, Watertown, Massachusetts (the “480 Arsenal Amendment”). In September 2024, the Company entered into a new lease for approximately 48,500 square feet of combined laboratory and office space at 500 Arsenal Street, Watertown, Massachusetts (the “500 Arsenal Lease”). The landlords of the spaces at 480 Arsenal Street and 500 Arsenal Street are affiliates.

The 480 Arsenal Amendment provides the Company with an additional 9,400 square feet of combined laboratory and office space (the “Expansion Space”) at no additional cost and also provides an early termination date for the existing space and the Expansion Space. The lease for space at 480 Arsenal Street, including the Expansion Space, terminated on April 30, 2025.

The 500 Arsenal Lease term commenced in December 2024 with a base term of 11 months. In December 2024, the Company began constructing improvements to the space, the construction for which was completed in 2025. Subsequent to the base term, the Company has an option to extend the lease through August 2028, which it exercised in February 2025. The Company secured the lease with a $0.6 million security deposit, which is recorded as restricted cash on the condensed consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2025. The 500 Arsenal Lease also provides a tenant improvement allowance of $2.4 million and an additional tenant improvement allowance of $1.2 million, which the Company would be obligated to repay to the landlord. The Company did not use the additional tenant improvement allowance.

Accounting Considerations

As the 480 Arsenal Amendment and the 500 Arsenal Lease meet the criteria for combining contracts under ASC 842, the Company determined that both 480 Arsenal Amendment and the 500 Arsenal Lease are modifications to its existing lease at 480 Arsenal Street. Within the combined contract the Company identified two separate lease components, each of which represents a right of use that the Company can benefit from on its own and none which are neither highly dependent nor highly related to the other. The Company allocated the consideration under the combined contract among the two lease components based on their relative fair market value. In calculating the allocable consideration and the fair market value of each lease component, the Company determined it is probable that it will exercise the option to extend the lease term provided under the 500 Arsenal Lease.

For accounting purposes, as the construction of the lessor assets were completed, the Company determined that the 500 Arsenal Lease commenced in March 2025 and recorded right-of-use assets of $7.0 million, and a corresponding lease liability of $5.5 million on the lease commencement date. Concurrently, the Company also determined that the termination of its leased space at 480 Arsenal Street was reasonably certain, and the Company recorded a $3.1 million reduction to the Company’s operating lease liability and its operating lease right-of-use asset on the condensed consolidated balance sheet.

The table below reconciles the undiscounted future annual lease payments to the total operating lease liabilities recorded in the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2025:


(in thousands)	Undiscounted Amounts
Undiscounted lease payments:
Remaining in 2025	$	10,494

2029	21,478

7.Stockholder’s Equity

Common Stock

Under the Company’s Third Amended and Restated of Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, the Company’s common stock had a par value of $0.00001 and each share of common stock entitles the holder to one vote on all matters submitted to the stockholders for a vote. The holders of common stock are entitled to receive dividends, if any, as declared by the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board of Directors”).

Pre-funded Warrants

In February 2024, the Company sold pre-funded warrants to purchase 3,200,005 shares of common stock at a public offering price of $6.24999 per pre-funded warrant, which represents the per share public offering price of each share of common stock less the $0.00001 per share exercise price for each pre-funded warrant. Subject to certain requirements, the pre-funded warrants can be exercised by the holder at any time.

In May 2025, the holder exercised all 3,200,005 of its pre-funded warrants on a cashless basis and received 3,199,984 shares of the Company’s common stock. Following this exercise, the Company has no pre-funded warrants outstanding.

August 2025 Offering

At-The-Market Equity Program

In November 2023, the Company entered into Open Market Sale AgreementSM (the “Sales Agreement”) with Jefferies LLC, acting as the Company’s agent and/or principal (the “Sales Agent”), with respect to an “at the market offering” program under which the Company may, from time to time, at its sole discretion, issue and sell shares of its common stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $300.0 million through the Sales Agent.

Effective July 30 2025, the Company terminated the sales agreement prospectus (the “ATM Prospectus”) filed with the shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-275321) and related to the shares of the Company’s common stock issuable pursuant to the Sales Agreement. As a result, the Company will not make any sales of its common stock pursuant to the Sales Agreement, unless and until a new prospectus, prospectus supplement or a new

registration statement is filed. Other than the termination of the ATM Prospectus, the Sales Agreement remains in full force and effect.

As of June 30, 2025 and as of the date these condensed consolidated financial statements are issued, the Company has not sold any shares of common stock under the ATM Prospectus.

8.Stock-Based Compensation

2019 Stock Option and Grant Plan

The Company’s 2019 Stock Option and Grant Plan (the “2019 Plan”) provides for the Company to grant incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options, unrestricted stock awards, restricted stock awards and other stock-based awards to the officers, employees, consultants and other key persons of the Company. The 2019 Plan was administered by the Board of Directors, or at the discretion of the Board of Directors, by a committee of the Board of Directors. The exercise prices, vesting and other restrictions are determined at the discretion of the Board of Directors, or its committee if so delegated.

In October 2022, in connection with the closing of the Company’s initial public offering (“IPO”), the Board of Directors determined that no further awards would be granted under the 2019 Plan.

2022 Stock Option and Incentive Plan

On February 9, 2022, the Board of Directors adopted, and on October 10, 2022, the Company’s stockholders approved, the 2022 Stock Option and Incentive Plan (the “2022 Plan”), which became effective on October 18, 2022. The 2022 Plan allows the Company to make equity-based and cash-based incentive awards to its officers, employees, directors, and consultants. The 2022 Plan provides for the grant of incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock awards, restricted stock units and other stock-based awards.

The shares of common stock underlying any awards under the 2022 Plan and the 2019 Plan that are forfeited, cancelled, held back upon exercise or settlement of an award to satisfy the exercise price or tax withholding, reacquired by the Company prior to vesting, satisfied without the issuance of stock, expire, or are otherwise terminated (other than by exercise) will be added back to the shares of common stock available for issuance under the 2022 Plan. The number of shares reserved and available for issuance under the 2022 Plan increased on January 1, 2023 and will increase on each January 1 hereafter, by five percent of the outstanding number of shares of common stock on the immediately preceding December 31 or such lesser number of shares as determined by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. On January 1, 2025, the annual increase resulted in an additional 6,558,042 shares authorized being added to the 2022 Plan. As of June 30, 2025, the Company had 28,080,152 shares reserved under the 2022 Plan and the 2019 Plan, and 9,478,749 shares available for issuance under the 2022 Plan.

2022 Employee Stock Purchase Plan

On February 9, 2022, the Board of Directors adopted, and on October 10, 2022, the Company’s stockholders approved, the 2022 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “2022 ESPP”), which became effective on October 18, 2022.

The number of shares of common stock that may be issued under the 2022 ESPP cumulatively increased beginning on January 1, 2023 and shall increase on each January 1 hereafter through January 1, 2032, by the least of (i) 971,350 shares of common stock, (ii) one percent of the outstanding number of shares of common stock on the immediately preceding December 31, or (iii) such number of shares of common stock as determined by the administrator of the 2022 ESPP. There was no annual increase for the 2022 ESPP on January 1, 2025. As of June 30, 2025, the Company had 1,619,579 shares available for issuance under the 2022 ESPP.

During the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company issued 133,612 shares of the Company’s common stock under the 2022 ESPP.

Repricing of Certain Outstanding Stock Options

On June 22, 2025, the Board of Directors approved, and on August 1, 2025 (the “Repricing Date”), the Company’s stockholders approved, a one-time repricing (the “Option Repricing”) of certain outstanding stock options granted to, and held by, certain of the Company’s current employees, including its executive officers, and members of the Board of Directors through the Repricing Date (collectively, the “Eligible Optionholders”), under the 2019 Plan and 2022 Plan (collectively, the “Plans”). The Option Repricing impacted up to an aggregate of 8,285,387 shares of common stock (such options, the “Eligible Options”) that have exercise prices in excess of $4.04 (the “Repriced Exercise Price”), which was the closing trading price per share of the Company’s common stock on The Nasdaq Global Market on the Repricing Date.

Effective as of the Repricing Date, the per share exercise price of each Eligible Option held by an Eligible Optionholder on the Repricing Date was automatically reduced to the Repriced Exercise Price. Under the terms of the Option Repricing, a Repriced Option will revert to its original exercise price per share if:

i.exercised prior to the 18-month anniversary of the Repricing Date for Repriced Options held by members of the Board of Directors or executive officers of the Company, as applicable, or the one-year anniversary of the Repricing Date for Repriced Options held by all other employees of the Company (each, a “Retention Date”);

ii.an Eligible Optionholder’s Service Relationship (as defined in the Plans) is terminated by the Company for Cause (as defined in the applicable award agreement) prior to the applicable Retention Date; or

iii.an Eligible Optionholder resigns from the Company (including as a member of the Board of Directors) for any reason prior to the applicable Retention Date, other than described below.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Repriced Option shall retain the Repriced Exercise Price, to the extent it has not otherwise reverted to its original exercise price per share in accordance with the foregoing, and the ability to exercise such Repriced Option may be accelerated to earlier than the applicable Retention Date in the event of:

i.a Sale Event (as defined in the Plans) prior to the applicable Retention Date;

ii.the termination of the Eligible Optionholder’s Service Relationship by the Company without Cause or for “good reason,” or resignation by the Eligible Optionholder for “good reason,” to the extent provided for in the Eligible Optionholder’s employment agreement, offer letter or severance plan (as applicable); or

iii.the Eligible Optionholder’s death or disability (as determined in accordance with the Plans, as applicable)..

Except as modified by the Option Repricing, all other terms and conditions of the Repriced Options, including, without limitation, any provisions with respect to vesting and term of the Repriced Options, will remain in full force and effect. The Company is in the process of evaluating the accounting impact of the Option Repricing.

Cystic Fibrosis Foundation

In July 2025, the Company entered into an agreement with the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation (“CFF”), under which CFF has agreed to provide up to $24 million in additional funding to accelerate the development of Prime Editors designed to permanently correct cystic fibrosis-related lung disease. The $24 million funding will be provided in two equal tranches, subject to certain closing conditions and scientific milestones. The first tranche includes a $6 million equity investment in the Company, which was received as part of the August 2025 offering.

CFF’s additional investment builds on initial funding received under the Company’s therapeutic development agreement with CFF in January 2024.

Beam Collaboration Agreement — Related Party

The Company is currently engaged in arbitration proceedings with Beam Therapeutics, Inc. (“Beam”) regarding the parties’ collaboration and license agreement (the “Agreement”). A dispute arose between the parties following the Company’s March 18, 2025 announcement that it is developing a Prime Editing-based treatment for alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency (“AATD”). On April 16, 2025, Beam filed an arbitration demand with the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), alleging that the Company has breached the Agreement by developing a product for the treatment of AATD and by allegedly not complying with certain obligations to transfer technical information to Beam pursuant to the Agreement. Beam also makes related claims for trade secret misappropriation and various business torts based on similar allegations, including allegations made on information and belief. Beam seeks both declaratory, injunctive, and monetary relief, but has not yet quantified the amount of damages it seeks. On April 18, 2025, the Company filed an arbitration demand with the AAA seeking a declaration that the Company’s AATD program is within our “Field” as defined by the Agreement. The arbitrations have been consolidated, and the consolidated proceeding remains in its early stages. If the final resolution of the matter is adverse to the Company, the arbitration panel may provide Beam with relief including, among other things, monetary damages and/or an order that the Company cease work on its AATD program and transfer such program to Beam.

For purposes of this calculation, preferred stock, unvested restricted stock and stock options to purchase common stock were considered common stock equivalents but had been excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share available to common stockholders as their effect was anti-dilutive. In periods in which the Company reports a net loss available to common stockholders, diluted net loss per share available to common stockholders is the same as basic net loss per share available to common stockholders, since dilutive common shares are not assumed to have been issued if their effect is anti-dilutive.

The following common stock equivalents were excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share applicable to common stockholders for the periods indicated because including them would have had an anti-dilutive effect:


	As of June 30,
	2025	2024
Anti-dilutive common stock equivalents:
Options to purchase common stock	17,685,319	12,007,443
Unvested restricted common stock	3,472,546	3,729,877
Total anti-dilutive common stock equivalents:	21,157,865	15,737,320

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

You should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations together with our condensed consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and our audited consolidated financial statements and notes and Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, filed with the SEC on February 28, 2025. As discussed in the section titled “Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements,” the following discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties, such as statements regarding our plans, objectives, expectations, intentions, or projections, as well as assumptions that, if they never materialize or prove incorrect, could cause our results to differ materially from those discussed in these forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed in the “Risk Factors” section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024. Our historical results are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any period in the future.

Overview

We are a biotechnology company committed to delivering a new class of differentiated one-time curative genetic therapies. We are deploying Prime Editing technology, which we believe is a versatile, precise, and efficient gene editing technology.

Going forward, we will focus our resources on advancing our in vivo liver franchise, where we are advancing programs to cure two of the largest genetic liver diseases, Wilson’s Disease and Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Deficiency, or AATD. Both programs are currently in late stages of pre-clinical development and are on track for IND and/or CTA filings in the first half of 2026 for Wilson’s Disease and the middle of 2026 for AATD. We intend to leverage the modularity of our platform to expeditiously and efficiently develop these programs supported by our universal liver lipid nanoparticle along with potential regulatory, clinical and other synergies from our modular technology.

We will also continue our in vivo Cystic Fibrosis program with support from the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation, and our efforts to develop Prime Edited CAR-T products for hematology, immunology and oncology in partnership with Bristol-Myers Squibb Company. In addition, we will continue to pursue additional business development opportunities to accelerate innovation, ensure the broadest application of Prime Editing, and further bolster our financial resources.

For example, in July 2025, we announced that the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation has agreed to provide us with up to $24 million in additional funding to accelerate the development of Prime Editors designed to permanently correct cystic fibrosis-related lung disease. The Cystic Fibrosis Foundation’s additional investment builds on initial funding received under our therapeutic development agreement with the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation in January 2024, and reflects its interest in Prime Editing as a potentially curative approach for cystic fibrosis. We intend to leverage the technology’s versatility and modularity to address multiple disease-causing mutations, potentially treating the vast majority of people with cystic fibrosis. We will initially focus on a program targeting G542X, one of the most prevalent cystic fibrosis-causing nonsense mutations and one for which there are no available therapies. In addition, we will continue to advance hotspot and PASSIGE-based approaches for other mutations with funding received from the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation under its initial commitment in 2024.

We recently announced initial data from the first patient dosed in our Phase 1/2 trial in chronic granulomatous disease, or CGD. In this patient dosed, a single dose of PM359, our candidate for the treatment of CGD, led to 58% dihydrorhodamine positivity by Day 15, 66% by Day 30 and 71% by Day 60, exceeding levels of dihydrohomadine positivity believed to be potentially curative. In the second patient dosed in the trial, a single dose of PM359 led to a 70% dihydrorhodamine positivity by day 15 and 80% by day 30. In both patients, we also observed successful manufacturing from a single mobilization, no serious adverse events related to PM359 and rapid neutrophil and platelet engraftment when compared to other commercially available autologous genetic therapy benchmarks. We continue to believe PM359 has the potential to transform the care of p47phox CGD. We are planning to have regulatory interactions based on the current data set.

Components of Our Results of Operations

Revenues

To date, we have not generated any revenue from product sales and do not expect to generate any revenue from the sale of products for the foreseeable future. Our revenues to date have been generated through research collaboration and license agreements. We recognize revenue over the expected performance period under each agreement. We expect that our revenue for the next several years will be derived primarily from our current collaboration agreements and any additional collaborations that we may enter into in the future. To date, we have not received any royalties under any of our existing collaboration agreements.

Research and Development Expenses

Research and development expenses consist primarily of costs incurred in connection with the development and research of our immediate target indications and our differentiation target indications. These expenses include:

•personnel-related expenses, including salaries, bonuses, benefits and stock-based compensation for employees engaged in manufacturing, research and development functions;

•expenses incurred in connection with continuing our current research programs and preclinical and clinical development of any product candidates we may identify, including under agreements with third parties, such as consultants and contractors;

•the cost of developing and validating our manufacturing process for use in our preclinical and clinical studies;

•laboratory supplies and research materials;

•facilities, depreciation and other expenses related to research and development activities, which include direct or allocated expenses for rent and maintenance of facilities, and utilities;

•the cost allocated to acquire in-process research and development, with no alternative future use associated with asset acquisitions or transactions to license intellectual property, such as our Broad License Agreement; and

•expenses incurred in connection with our Pledge to Broad Institute.

We expense all research and development costs in the periods in which they are incurred. Most of our research and development expenses have been related to early stage development activities. In the future, external research and development costs for any individual product candidate will be tracked commencing upon product candidate nomination. We do not allocate employee costs, costs associated with our discovery efforts, laboratory supplies, and facilities expenses, including depreciation or other indirect costs, to specific product development programs because these costs are deployed across multiple programs and our platform and, as such, are not separately classified.

Upfront and milestone payments made are accrued for and expensed when the achievement of the milestone is probable up to the point of regulatory approval. Milestone payments made upon regulatory approval will be capitalized and amortized over the remaining useful life of the related product.

We expect our research and development expenses to continue to increase substantially for the foreseeable future with our planned research and development activities related to developing any future product candidates, including investments in manufacturing, as we advance any product candidates we may identify and begin to conduct clinical trials, and with our obligations under the BMS Collaboration Agreement.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses consist of salaries and personnel-related costs, including stock-based compensation, for our personnel in executive, legal, finance and accounting, human resources and other administrative functions. General and administrative expenses also include legal fees relating to patents and

corporate matters; professional fees paid for accounting, auditing, consulting and tax service; insurance costs; office and information technology costs; and facilities, depreciation and other general and administrative expenses, which include direct or allocated expenses for rent and maintenance of facilities and utilities.

We anticipate that our general and administrative expenses will increase in the future as we increase our headcount to support research and development activities; increased accounting, legal, insurance, and investor and public relations costs as we continue to operate as a public company; and additional intellectual property-related expenses as we file patent applications to protect innovations arising from our research and development activities.

Other Income (Expense)

Other income (expense), net primarily consists of interest and other income earned on our short-term investments and the change in the fair value of our short-term investment in Beam Therapeutics Inc. (“Beam”), a related party, in connection with the Beam Collaboration Agreement, which is discussed in greater detail in Note 9, License and Collaboration Agreements, to the audited consolidated financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.

The $1.7 million decrease in research and development expense for the three months ended June 30, 2025 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2024 was primarily driven by:

•$3.3 million decrease in research costs due to the deprioritization of our CGD programs as we strategically focus our internal efforts on advancing our in vivo liver franchise;

•$1.8 million decrease in personnel expenses, driven primarily by a decrease of $1.0 million in stock-based compensation expense and fewer R&D personnel resulting from workforce reduction; and

•$1.1 million decrease in clinical expenses due to the deprioritization of our CGD programs and discontinuation of our efforts to independently advance our PM359 program to focus on our liver franchise and programs funded through external partnerships.

These were offset by:

•$2.5 million increase in facility-related expense primarily due to the expansion and build out of our laboratory space at 60 First Street and 500 Arsenal Street; and

•$1.6 million increase in license and IP costs as we advance our in vivo liver franchise and pipeline.

The $1.1 million increase in research and development expense for the six months ended June 30, 2025 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2024 was primarily driven by:

•$6.1 million increase in facility-related expense primarily due to the expansion and build out of our laboratory space at 60 First Street and 500 Arsenal Street; and

•$1.3 million increase in license and IP costs as we advance our in vivo liver franchise and pipeline.

This is offset by:

•$3.9 million decrease in research costs due to the deprioritization of our CGD programs as we strategically focus our internal efforts on advancing our in vivo liver franchise; and

•$2.0 million decrease in personnel expenses, driven primarily by a decrease of $0.9 million in stock-based compensation expense and fewer R&D personnel resulting from the workforce reduction.

Accretion (amortization of investments

Accretion (amortization) of investments for each of the periods presented is a result of increase (decrease) in the value of the our marketable securities purchased at a discount (premium) to their face value.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Since our inception, we have incurred significant operating losses. We expect to incur significant expenses and operating losses for the foreseeable future as we advance the preclinical development of our current research programs, commence the clinical development of any product candidates we may identify, and continue our platform development and early-stage research activities. We have not yet commercialized any products and we do not expect to generate revenue from sales of products for several years, if at all. To date, we have funded our operations primarily with proceeds from sales of preferred stock and from our public offerings and through payments from our collaboration partners. As of June 30, 2025, we had cash, cash equivalents, and investments of $101.8 million, excluding our restricted cash, or $115.4 million, including restricted cash.

In November 2023, we entered into an Open Market Sale AgreementSM (the “Sales Agreement”) with Jefferies LLC (“Jefferies”) under which we may, from time to time, issue and sell shares of our common stock having aggregate sales proceeds of up to $300.0 million, in a series of one or more at-the-market equity offerings (the “ATM Program”). Effective July 30, 2025, we terminated the sales agreement prospectus (the “ATM Prospectus”) filed with the shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-275321) and related to the shares of our common stock issuable pursuant to the Sales Agreement. As a result, we will not make any sales of our common stock pursuant to the Sales Agreement, unless and until a new prospectus, prospectus supplement or a new registration statement is filed. Other than the termination of the ATM Prospectus, the Sales Agreement remains in full force and effect. As of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we have not sold any shares of common stock under the 2023 ATM program.

In August 2025, we issued and sold 43,700,000 shares of our common stock, including 5,700,000 shares pursuant to the exercise of the underwriters’ option to purchase additional shares, at a price to the public of $3.30 per share. As a result of the offering, we received approximately $138.2 million in net proceeds, after deducting underwriting discounts, commissions and offering costs of approximately $6.0 million.

Cash Flows

The following table summarizes our sources and uses of cash for each of the periods presented:


	Six Months Ended June 30,
(in thousands)	2025		2024
Net change in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash:
Net cash used in operating activities	$	(90,269)	$	(113,198)
Net cash used in investing activities	(44,971)		(30,138)
Net cash provided by financing activities	6,197		157,362
Net change in cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash	$	(129,043)	$	14,026

Operating Activities

Net cash used in operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2025 was driven primarily by the following uses of cash:

•$104.5 million net loss;

•$2.4 million change in deferred revenue — related party;

•$2.1 million change in lease liabilities

•$1.7 million change in accrued expenses and other current liabilities; and

•$1.5 million change in accounts payable.

These were offset by $21.3 million of non-cash amounts included in net loss, which primarily consisted of stock-based compensation expense, non-cash lease expense, depreciation expense, and change in fair value of short-term investment — related party.

Net cash used in operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was driven primarily by the following uses of cash:

•$101.1 million net loss;

•$13.5 million change in accrued settlement payment — related party;

•$9.2 million change in accounts payable;

•$5.7 million change in lease liabilities;

•$3.9 million change in accrued expenses and other current liabilities; and

•$2.5 million change in prepaid and other current assets.

These were offset by $22.8 million of non-cash amounts included in net loss, which primarily consisted of stock-based compensation expense, non-cash lease expense, and depreciation expense.

Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2025 was driven primarily by the following:

•$41.0 million of purchases of marketable securities, net of maturities; and

•$4.0 million of purchases of property and equipment.

Net cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was driven primarily by the following:

•$25.9 million of purchases of marketable securities, net of maturities; and

•$4.2 million of purchases of property and equipment.

Financing Activities

Net cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2025 was driven by $6.0 million of proceeds received under our agreement with Cystic Fibrosis Foundation.

Net cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was driven primarily by the following:

•$132.1 million of proceeds from issuances of common stock in our February 2024 public offering;

•$18.8 million of proceeds from issuance of pre-funded warrants contemporaneous with our February 2024 public offering; and

•$6.0 million of proceeds received under our agreement with Cystic Fibrosis Foundation.

Funding Requirements

To date, we have not generated any revenue from product sales. We do not expect to generate revenue from product sales unless and until we successfully complete preclinical and clinical development of, receive regulatory approval for, and commercialize a product candidate and we do not know when, or if at all, that will occur. We expect our expenses to increase in connection with our ongoing activities, particularly as we advance the preclinical activities and studies and initiate clinical trials. In addition, if we obtain regulatory approval for any product candidates, we expect to incur significant expenses related to product sales, marketing, and distribution to the extent that such sales,

marketing and distribution are not the responsibility of potential collaborators. Further, we have incurred, and expect to continue to incur, costs associated with operating as a public company. The timing and amount of our operating expenditures will depend largely on the factors set out above. For more information, refer to the section titled “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, and the “Risk Factors” section of subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q.

We believe our existing cash, cash equivalents, and investments, including funds from our August 2025 offering, will be sufficient to fund our operating expenses and capital expenditure requirements into 2027. We have based this estimate on assumptions that may prove to be wrong, and we could exhaust our available capital resources sooner than we expect. We expect that we will require additional funding to:

•continue our current research development activities;

•identify product candidates;

•evaluate strategic alternatives and potential partnership opportunities for PM359, including our ability to execute and realize the anticipated benefits of any strategic alternatives we may pursue;

•develop, maintain, expand and protect our intellectual property portfolio and defend intellectual property-related claims;

•maintain existing collaborations or strategic relationships and identify and enter into future license agreements and collaborations with third parties;

•initiate preclinical testing and clinical trials for our future product candidates we identify;

•further develop our Prime Editing platform; and

•hire additional personnel to support our strategic priorities.

If we receive regulatory approval for any of our product candidates, we expect to incur significant commercialization expenses related to product manufacturing, sales, marketing and distribution, depending on where we choose to commercialize ourselves.

Until such time, if ever, as we can generate substantial product revenue, we expect to finance our cash needs through a combination of private and public equity offerings, debt financings, additional collaborations, strategic alliances, and marketing, distribution or licensing arrangements with third parties. To the extent that we raise additional capital through the sale of equity or convertible debt securities, ownership interest may be materially diluted, and the terms of such securities could include liquidation or other preferences that adversely affect your rights as a common stockholder. Debt and equity financing, if available, may involve agreements that include restrictive covenants that limit our ability to take specified actions, such as incurring additional debt, making capital expenditures or declaring dividends. If we raise funds through collaborations, strategic alliances or marketing, or distribution or licensing arrangements with third parties, we may have to relinquish valuable rights to our technologies, any future revenue streams, research programs or product candidates or grant licenses on terms that may not be favorable to us. If we are unable to raise additional funds through equity or debt financings or other arrangements when needed, we may be required to delay, reduce or eliminate our product development or future commercialization efforts, or grant rights to develop and market product candidates that we would otherwise prefer to develop and market ourselves.

Contractual Obligations and Other Commitments

We enter into contracts in the normal course of business with contract organizations and other vendors to assist in the performance of our research and development activities, and other services and products for operating purposes. These contracts generally provide for termination on notice, and therefore are cancellable contracts and not included in the table of contractual obligations and commitments.

During the six months ended June 30, 2025, except for the minimum lease commitments disclosed in Note 6, Leases, to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, there

were no significant changes to our contractual obligations and commitments described under Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.

Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Judgments and Estimates

Our management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses incurred during the reporting periods. We base our estimates on historical experience, known trends and events, and various other factors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities recorded revenues and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. We evaluate our estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

During the six months ended June 30, 2025, there were no material changes to our critical accounting policies and significant judgements described under Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Judgments and Estimates which are included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.

Recently Issued and Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

A description of recently issued accounting pronouncements that may potentially impact our financial position and results of operations is disclosed in Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, to our audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024, and notes thereto, included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K and in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Emerging Growth Company Status

The Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 permits an “emerging growth company” such as us to take advantage of an extended transition period to comply with new or revised accounting standards applicable to public companies until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. We have elected not to “opt out” of such extended transition period, which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, we will adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard and will do so until such time that we either (i) irrevocably elect to “opt out” of such extended transition period or (ii) no longer qualify as an emerging growth company. As a result of this election, our condensed consolidated financial statements may not be comparable to other public companies that comply with new or revised accounting pronouncements as of public company effective dates. We may choose to early adopt any new or revised accounting standards whenever such early adoption is permitted for private companies.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Interest Rate Risk

We are exposed to market risk related to changes in interest rates of our investment portfolio of cash equivalents and investments. As of June 30, 2025, we held cash, cash equivalents, investments, and restricted cash of $115.4 million, which consisted of cash, money market funds, equity securities, and debt securities. Our primary exposure to market risk is interest income sensitivity, which is affected by changes in the general level of U.S. interest rates. The fair value of our cash equivalents, consisted of our money market funds, and investments are subject to change as a result of potential changes in market interest rates. Due to the short-term maturities of our cash equivalents and investments and the low risk profile of our investments, an immediate 10 percent change in interest rates would not have a material effect on the fair market value of our cash equivalents or investments.

Effects of Inflation

Inflation generally affects us by increasing our cost of labor and research and development costs. Although we do not believe that inflation has had a material impact on our financial position or results of operations to date, we may experience some effect in the near future (especially if inflation rates continue to rise) due to an impact on the costs to conduct research and development, labor costs we incur to attract and retain qualified personnel, and other operational costs. Inflationary costs could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

We have established disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer (who serves as both our principal executive officer and principal financial officer), to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.

Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer (who serves as both our principal executive officer and principal financial officer), evaluated, as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act). Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2025. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Our disclosure controls and procedures have been designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the three months ended June 30, 2025 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Part II - Other Information

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

We are currently engaged in arbitration proceedings with Beam Therapeutics, Inc. (“Beam”) regarding the parties’ collaboration and license agreement (the “Agreement”). A dispute arose between the parties following our March 18, 2025 announcement that we are developing a Prime Editing-based treatment for alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency (“AATD”). On April 16, 2025, Beam filed an arbitration demand with the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), alleging that we have breached the Agreement by developing a product for the treatment of AATD and by allegedly not complying with certain obligations to transfer technical information to Beam pursuant to the Agreement. Beam also makes related claims for trade secret misappropriation and various business torts based on similar allegations, including allegations made on information and belief. Beam seeks both declaratory, injunctive, and monetary relief, but has not yet quantified the amount of damages it seeks. On April 18, 2025, we filed an arbitration demand with the AAA seeking a declaration that our AATD program is within our “Field” as defined by the Agreement. The arbitrations have been consolidated, and the consolidated proceeding remains in its early stages. If the final resolution of the matter is adverse to us, the arbitration panel may provide Beam with relief including, among other things, monetary damages and/or an order that we cease work on our AATD program and transfer such program to Beam.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

Investing in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. For a detailed discussion of the risks and uncertainties related to our business, please refer to the section titled “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024. There have been no material changes from the risk factors set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, except as set forth below.

Healthcare and other reform legislation may increase the difficulty and cost for us and any collaborators we may have to obtain marketing approval of and commercialize any product candidates we may develop and affect the prices we, or they, may obtain.

In the United States and some foreign jurisdictions, there have been and continue to be ongoing efforts to implement legislative and regulatory changes regarding the healthcare system. Such changes could prevent or delay marketing approval of any product candidates that we may develop, restrict or regulate post-approval activities and affect our ability to profitably sell any product candidates for which we obtain marketing approval. Although we cannot predict what healthcare or other reform efforts will be successful, such efforts may result in more rigorous coverage criteria, in additional downward pressure on the price that we, or our future collaborators, may receive for any approved products or in other consequences that may adversely affect our ability to achieve or maintain profitability.

Within the United States, the federal government and individual states have aggressively pursued healthcare reform, as evidenced by the passing of the Affordable Care Act, as amended by the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010 (the “ACA”), and the ongoing efforts to modify or repeal that legislation. The ACA substantially changed the way healthcare is financed by both governmental and private insurers and contains a number of provisions that affect coverage and reimbursement of drug products and/or that could potentially reduce the demand for pharmaceutical products such as increasing drug rebates under state Medicaid programs for brand name prescription drugs and extending those rebates to Medicaid managed care and assessing a fee on manufacturers and importers of brand name prescription drugs reimbursed under certain government programs, including Medicare and Medicaid. Other aspects of healthcare reform, such as expanded government enforcement authority and heightened standards that could increase compliance-related costs, could also affect our business. Modifications have been implemented under the former Trump administration and additional modifications or repeal may occur.

The continuing efforts of the government, insurance companies, managed care organizations and other payers of healthcare services to contain or reduce costs of healthcare may adversely affect:

•the demand for any of our product candidates, if approved;

•the ability to set a price that we believe is fair for any of our product candidates, if approved;

•our ability to generate revenues and achieve or maintain profitability;

•the level of taxes that we are required to pay; and

•the availability of capital.

Legislative and regulatory proposals have been made to expand post-approval requirements and restrict sales and promotional activities for pharmaceutical and biologic products. We cannot be sure whether additional legislative changes will be enacted, or whether FDA regulations, guidance or interpretations will be changed, or what the impact of such changes on the marketing approvals of our product candidates, if any, may be. In addition, increased scrutiny by Congress of the FDA’s approval process may significantly delay or prevent marketing approval, as well as subject us to more stringent product labeling and post-marketing testing and other requirements.

Moreover, increasing efforts by governmental and third-party payors in the United States and abroad to cap or reduce healthcare costs may cause such organizations to limit both coverage and the level of reimbursement for newly approved products and, as a result, they may not cover or provide adequate payment for our product candidates. There has been increasing legislative and enforcement interest in the United States with respect to specialty drug pricing practices. Specifically, there have been several recent U.S. Congressional inquiries and proposed and enacted federal and state legislation designed to, among other things, bring more transparency to drug pricing, reduce the cost of prescription drugs under Medicare, review the relationship between pricing and manufacturer patient programs, and reform government program reimbursement methodologies for drugs. For example, the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (the “IRA”) that was signed into law in August 2022, contains several provisions that are intended to limit prices of pharmaceutical and biologic products, including creating a $2,000 out-of-pocket cap for Medicare Part D beneficiaries, imposing new manufacturer financial liability on all drugs in Medicare Part D, allowing the U.S. government to negotiate Medicare Part B and Part D pricing for certain high-cost pharmaceutical and biologic drugs without generic or biosimilar competition, requiring companies to pay rebates to Medicare for drug prices that increase faster than inflation, and delaying until January 1, 2032 the implementation of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (“HHS”) rebate rule that would have limited the fees that pharmacy benefit managers can charge. Further, under the IRA, orphan drugs were previously exempted from the Medicare drug price negotiation program; however, this exemption was restricted to drugs with only one orphan designation and for which the only approved indication is for that disease or condition. If a product received multiple orphan designations or had multiple approved indications, it would not qualify for the orphan drug exemption. Under the One Big Beautiful Bill Act of 2025, this restriction was eliminated; and effective for the 2028 initial price applicability year, all orphan drugs, regardless of the number of orphan designations or indications, are exempt from the Medicare drug price negotiation program. The effects of the IRA on our business and the healthcare industry in general is not yet known.

On April 15, 2025, the Trump Administration published Executive Order 14273, “Lowering Drug Prices by Once Again Putting Americans First,” which generally directs the HHS to take measures to reduce drug prices, including eliminating the so-called “pill penalty” under the IRA that creates a distinction between small molecule and large molecule products for purposes of determining when a drug may be eligible for drug price negotiation. On May 12, 2025, the Trump Administration published Executive Order 14297, “Delivering Most-Favored-Nation Prescription Drug Pricing to American Patients” which generally, among other things, directs certain executive officials to establish and communicate most-favored-nation price targets to pharmaceutical manufacturers to bring prices for American patients in line with comparably developed nations. Further, the Executive Order directs the federal government to support regulatory paths to allow direct-to-patient sales for companies that meet these targets. It also states that the Administration will take additional aggressive action (for example, examining whether marketing approvals should be modified or rescinded or opening the door for individual drug importation waivers) should manufacturers fail to offer American consumers the most-favored-nation lowest price. It also directs the Secretary of Commerce and the U.S. Trade Representative to “take all necessary and appropriate action to ensure foreign countries are not engaged in any act, policy, or practice that may be unreasonable or discriminatory or that may impair United States national security . . . including by suppressing the price of pharmaceutical products below fair market value in foreign countries.” Notably, a similar “Most Favored Nation” pricing rule enacted under the first

Trump Administration was subject to an injunction resulting from judicial challenges to the rule, which was formally rescinded by the former Biden Administration in August 2021.

In addition, at the state level, legislatures have increasingly passed legislation and implemented regulations similar to those under consideration at the federal level, as well as laws designed to control pharmaceutical and biotherapeutic product pricing, including restrictions on pricing or reimbursement at the state government level, limitations on discounts to patients, marketing cost disclosure and transparency measures, restrictions or other limitations on patient assistance, and, in some cases, policies to encourage importation from other countries (subject to federal approval) and bulk purchasing. Certain states are also pursuing cost containment efforts through Prescription Drug Affordability Boards and similar entities.

We expect that the healthcare reform measures that have been adopted and may be adopted in the future may result in more rigorous coverage criteria and in additional downward pressure on the price that we receive for any approved product and could seriously harm our future revenues. We cannot be sure whether additional legislative changes will be enacted, or whether FDA regulations, guidance or interpretations will be changed, or what the impact of such changes on the marketing approvals of our products and future product candidates, if any, may be. In addition, increased scrutiny by Congress of the FDA’s approval process may significantly delay or prevent marketing approval, as well as subject us to more stringent product labeling and post-marketing testing and other requirements. Any reduction in reimbursement from Medicare or other government programs may result in a similar reduction in payments from private payors. The implementation of cost containment measures or other healthcare reforms may prevent us from being able to generate revenue, attain profitability or commercialize our products.

The U.S. Congress, the Trump administration, or any new administration may make substantial changes to fiscal, tax, and other federal policies that may adversely affect our business.

Since the start of the Trump Administration in 2025, U.S. policy changes have been implemented at a rapid pace and additional changes are likely. For example, the U.S. government has adopted new approaches to trade policy and in some cases may renegotiate, or potentially terminate, certain existing bilateral or multi-lateral trade agreements. The U.S. government has also imposed substantial tariffs on most countries throughout the world and has further threatened to continue to broadly impose tariffs, which could lead to corresponding punitive actions by the countries with which the U.S. trades. While certain tariffs have subsequently been suspended, modified or temporarily reduced, we cannot predict the results of the U.S. government’s trade negotiations or the outcome of ongoing legal challenges to specific tariff policies. Changes to U.S. policy implemented by the U.S. Congress, the Trump administration or any new administration have impacted and may in the future impact, among other things, the U.S. and global economy, international trade relations, unemployment, immigration, healthcare, taxation, the U.S. regulatory environment, inflation and other areas. Although we cannot predict the impact, if any, of these changes to our business, they could adversely affect our business. Until we know what policy changes are made, whether those policy changes are challenged and subsequently upheld by the court system and how those changes impact our business and the business of our competitors over the long term, we will not know if, overall, we will benefit from them or be negatively affected by them.

Changes in tax laws or in their implementation or interpretation may adversely affect our business and financial condition.

The rules dealing with U.S. federal, state and local income taxation are constantly under review by persons involved in the legislative process and by the Internal Revenue Service, the U.S. Treasury Department and non-U.S. taxing authorities. For example, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (the “OBBBA”) was signed into law on July 4, 2025 and made significant changes to U.S. federal tax law. Changes to tax laws (which changes may have retroactive application) could adversely affect our business and our financial condition. For example, under Section 174 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, in taxable years beginning after December 31, 2021, expenses that are incurred for research and development performed outside the U.S. will be capitalized and amortized, which may have an adverse effect on our cash flow. The OBBBA provides that for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2024, expenses that are incurred for research and development performed in the U.S. may, at the taxpayer’s election, be immediately deducted or capitalized and amortized. In addition, the OBBBA provides that for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2021 and before January 1, 2025, certain eligible taxpayers generally may elect to

retroactively deduct expenses for research and development performed in the U.S. in such taxable years by filing amended tax returns for such taxable years, and all other taxpayers that are not eligible to make such an election and that amortized expenses for research and development performed in the U.S. in such taxable years generally may elect to accelerate and deduct the remaining unamortized amounts of such research and development expenses (i) in the first taxable year beginning after December 31, 2024, or (ii) ratably over the two-taxable year period beginning with the first taxable year beginning after December 31, 2024. In recent years, many such changes have been made and changes are likely to continue to occur in the future. We cannot predict whether, when, in what form or with what effective dates, tax laws, regulations and rulings may be enacted, promulgated or decided or whether they could increase our tax liability or require changes in the manner in which we operate in order to minimize increases in our tax liability.

Our future success depends on our ability to retain our key employees and to attract, retain and motivate qualified personnel.

We are highly dependent on our key executives and other principal members of our management, scientific and clinical team. Although we have entered into employment agreements and/or offer letters with our executive officers, they are engaged “at will,” meaning we or they may terminate the relationship at any time. We do not maintain “key person” insurance for any of our executives or other employees. The loss of the services of any of these persons could impede the achievement of our research, development and commercialization objectives.

Recruiting and retaining qualified scientific, clinical, manufacturing and sales and marketing personnel will also be critical to our success. In addition, our company-building efforts and establishment of a company culture will also be important to developing an innovative company in a high-evolving area. We may not be able to succeed in these efforts to build Prime Medicine as an attractive and exciting place to build a career or to attract and retain these types of personnel on acceptable terms given the competition among numerous pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies for similar personnel. We also experience competition for the hiring of scientific and clinical personnel from universities and research institutions. In addition, we rely on consultants and advisors, including scientific and clinical advisors, to assist us in formulating our research and development and commercialization strategy. Our consultants and advisors, may be employed by employers other than us and may have commitments under consulting or advisory contracts with other entities that may limit their availability to us. The inability to recruit, or loss of services of, certain executives, key employees, consultants or advisors, may impede the progress of our research, development and commercialization objectives and have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

To motivate and retain qualified employees, executive officers and directors who we believe best represent our Company values and can make meaningful contributions towards achieving our purpose of delivering a new class of differentiated one-time curative genetic therapies to address the widest spectrum of diseases by deploying our Prime Editing technology, in addition to salary and cash incentives, as applicable, we have provided stock options that vest over time. The value to employees and directors of stock options that vest over time may be significantly affected by movements in our stock price that are beyond our control and may at any time be insufficient to counteract more lucrative offers from other companies. To the extent our stock price declines, our ability to incentivize, retain or attract qualified talent could be negatively impacted. For example, in recent years, the stock market in general, and the market for pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies in particular, has experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations, often unrelated or disproportionate to changes in the operating performance of the affected companies. As a biotechnology company, the market price of our common stock has historically been volatile, reflecting the risks and uncertainties inherent in the development of product candidates. Since 2024, the market price of our common stock has experienced material fluctuations and declined from a high of approximately $9.39 on February 27, 2024 to a low of approximately $1.15 on April 8, 2025. As a result, certain of our employees and directors now hold options with exercise prices meaningfully above the recent trading range of our common stock (often referred to as “underwater” or “out-of-the-money”), rendering the options a less effective means of incentivizing and retaining such holders.

We also recently announced a strategic restructuring, including the deprioritization of our CGD programs, as well as a cost and workforce reduction to focus on our liver franchise and programs funded through external partnerships, placing additional pressure on the retention of qualified talent. Although we continue to believe that stock options

are an important component of the Company’s compensation program, underwater options may be perceived by their holders as having little or no incentive or retention value due to the disparity between the exercise prices and the current stock price. To provide added incentives to retain and motivate key contributors and to improve morale among our employees and directors to ensure alignment and motivation to execute on the Company’s reprioritized strategy, our stockholders approved a one-time repricing of certain outstanding stock options that have been granted under our 2019 Stock Option and Grant Plan and/or the 2022 Stock Option and Incentive Plan at the special meeting of stockholders held on August 1, 2025. Despite this, we may have difficulty retaining key personnel, which could adversely affect our business and further development of our product candidates.

If conflicts arise between us and our collaborators or strategic partners, these parties may act in a manner adverse to us and could limit our ability to implement our strategies or we could lose license rights that are important to our business.

We are and expect to continue to be reliant upon certain patent rights and proprietary technology we have licensed from third parties that may be important or necessary to the development of our Prime Editing technology and product candidates. If conflicts arise between our corporate or academic collaborators or strategic partners and us, the other party may act in a manner adverse to us and could limit our ability to implement our strategies or we could lose license rights that are important to our business. For instance, we have entered into license and collaboration agreements with Beam and Broad Institute related to the research, development, delivery, manufacturing, and commercialization of Prime Editing technology and certain product candidates we may develop.

The agreements under which we currently license intellectual property rights from Beam and Broad Institute are complex, and certain provisions in such agreements may be susceptible to multiple interpretations. The resolution of any contract interpretation disagreement that may arise under our existing license agreements or future license agreements into which we may enter could narrow what we believe to be the scope of our rights to the relevant intellectual property or technology or broaden what we believe to be the scope of the licensor’s rights to our intellectual property and technology, or increase what we believe to be our financial or other obligations under the relevant agreement, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects. For example, we have exclusively licensed and sublicensed certain of our owned and licensed intellectual property rights to Beam pursuant to a license and collaboration agreement, or the Beam Collaboration Agreement, in certain fields. The parties have presented differing contractual interpretations, the resolution of which could expand the field of exclusivity or other rights that we believe were granted to Beam and therefore, narrow what we believe to be our field of exclusivity or rights with respect to such licensed intellectual property rights.

For example, we are currently engaged in arbitration proceedings with Beam regarding the Beam Collaboration Agreement. A dispute arose between the parties following our March 18, 2025 announcement that we are developing a Prime Editing-based treatment for AATD. On April 16, 2025, Beam filed an arbitration demand with the American Arbitration Association, or the AAA, alleging that we have breached the Beam Collaboration Agreement by developing a product for the treatment of AATD and by allegedly not complying with certain obligations to transfer technical information to Beam pursuant to the Beam Collaboration Agreement. On April 18, 2025, we filed an arbitration demand with the AAA seeking a declaration that our AATD program is within our “Field” as defined by the Beam Collaboration Agreement. The arbitrations have been consolidated, and the consolidated proceeding remains in its early stages. If the final resolution of the matter is adverse to us, the arbitration panel may provide Beam with relief including, among other things, monetary damages and/or an order that we cease work on our AATD program and transfer such program to Beam. Such a relief could have a material adverse effect on our competitive position, business, financial condition, results of operations and growth prospects.

Our strategic restructuring and the associated workforce reduction announced in May 2025 may not result in anticipated cost savings, could result in total costs and expenses that are greater than expected and could disrupt our business.

In May 2025, we announced a strategic restructuring, including the deprioritization of our CGD programs, to focus on our liver franchise and programs funded through external pipelines. The strategic restructuring includes cost reduction measures and reduction of our organizational headcount by approximately 25%, which are designed to

significantly decrease our operating expenses and cash burn, reducing anticipated cash needs by almost half through 2027. The estimates of the charges and cash expenditures that we expect to incur in connection with the strategic restructuring and related workforce reduction, and the timing thereof, are subject to a number of assumptions, and we may incur costs that are greater than we currently expect. We may not realize, in full or in part, the anticipated benefits, savings and improvements in our operating structure from our new strategic efforts due to unforeseen difficulties, delays or unexpected costs. If we are unable to realize the expected operational efficiencies and cost savings from the strategic restructuring, our results of operation and financial condition would be adversely affected. We also cannot guarantee that we will not have to undertake additional workforce reductions or related activities in the future. Such cost reduction efforts may in the future adversely affect our ability to attract and retain employees, and may adversely affect our culture and impact our ability to effectively pursue our business strategy. Furthermore, our strategic restructuring may be disruptive to our operations. For example, our workforce reductions could yield unanticipated consequences, such as attrition beyond planned staff reductions, increased difficulties in our day-to-day operations and reduced employee morale. If employees who were not affected by the reduction in force seek alternate employment, this could result in us seeking contract support which may result in unplanned additional expense or harm our productivity. Our workforce reductions could also harm our ability to attract and retain qualified management, scientific, and clinical personnel who are critical to our business. Any failure to attract or retain qualified personnel could prevent us from successfully developing our product candidates in the future.
