CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS This presentation contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Statements in this presentation that are not statements of historical fact are forward-looking statements. Words such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “expect,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “seek,” “could,” “intend,” “target,” “aim,” “project,” “designed to,” “estimate,” “believe,” “predict,” “potential” or “continue” or the negative of these terms or other similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements, though not all forward-looking statements contain these identifying words. Forward- looking statements include statements concerning, among other things, our belief that our existing cash resources will be sufficient to support operating runway into the second half of 2024; the future of the COVID-19 landscape; our ongoing research and clinical development plans, including with respect to VYD222; the timing, progress and results of our preclinical studies and clinical trials of our product candidates, including our VYD222 program; our expectation that our platform will rapidly and perpetually deliver a stream of monoclonal antibodies (“mAbs”) to keep pace with viral evolution and protect the vulnerable from COVID-19; our expectation to engage in continuous monitoring of viral evolution coupled with rapid antibody discovery and engineering to address the evolving SARS-CoV-2 threat; our expectations regarding the size of target patient populations and the potential market opportunity for our product candidates, as well as our market position; our beliefs regarding the clinical utility of anti- SARS-CoV-2 mAbs and our product candidates; the anticipated broad activity and prolonged utility of VYD222, including its design properties; our expectations regarding the scope of any approved indication for our product candidates; our belief that there is a strong scientific rationale for using surrogates of clinical efficacy in clinical trials, potentially accelerating development of VYD222 and future candidates; the possibility for mAb candidates to follow a rapid development pathway using immunobridging via a surrogate endpoint enabled by previously generated clinical trial data from a prototype mAb; our plans to use an immunobridging approach to a VYD222 pivotal clinical trial that would leverage previously generated adintrevimab clinical trial data, through the use of a surrogate marker (serum neutralizing titers) in the primary endpoint; our plans to initiate a VYD222 pivotal clinical trial to rapidly generate data for a potential EUA submission; our vision for a future ‘plug and play’ approach for viral-directed mAbs, pending alignment with global regulators; the potential for an emergency use authorization (“EUA”) or other regulatory approval of any of our product candidates; our plans to generate a robust pipeline of product candidates which, if authorized or approved, could be used in prevention or treatment of serious viral diseases, starting with COVID-19 and expanding into influenza and other high-need indications; and other statements that are not historical fact. We may not actually achieve the plans, intentions or expectations disclosed in our forward-looking statements and you should not place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual results to differ materially from the results described in or implied by the forward-looking statements, including, without limitation: our ability to gain complete alignment with the applicable regulatory authorities on the clinical trial design and development pathway for VYD222, including the use of an immunobridging approach, and the timing thereof; whether adintrevimab is able to serve as a prototype mAb and we are able to leverage previously generated adintrevimab data in connection with the development of VYD222; the timing and progress of our discovery, preclinical and clinical development activities, including the company’s ability to initiate a VYD222 pivotal clinical trial and rapidly generate data for a potential EUA submission; our ability to generate and utilize tools to discover and develop a pipeline of antibodies to treat current and potential future SARS-CoV-2 variants; the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business and those of our collaborators, our clinical trials and our financial position; unexpected safety or efficacy data observed during preclinical studies or clinical trials; the predictability of clinical success of VYD222 or other product candidates based on neutralizing activity in preclinical studies; the risk that results of preclinical studies or clinical trials may not be predictive of future results in connection with current or future clinical trials; variability of results in models used to predict activity against SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern; clinical trial site activation or enrollment rates that are lower than expected; changes in expected or existing competition; changes in the regulatory environment; the uncertainties and timing of the regulatory approval process, including the outcome of our discussions with regulators about our clinical trials and platform-based approach to development; whether we are able to successfully monitor, analyze, engineer and optimize new product candidates and create a stream of mAbs to keep pace with viral evolution and protect the vulnerable from COVID-19; whether VYD222 or any other product candidate or combination of candidates is able to demonstrate and sustain neutralizing activity against predominant SARS-CoV-2 variant(s); whether we are able to successfully submit an EUA in the future, and the outcome of any such EUA submission; whether our research and development efforts will identify and result in safe and effective therapeutic options for infectious diseases other than COVID-19; and whether we have adequate funding to meet future operating expenses and capital expenditure requirements. Other factors that may cause our actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements in this presentation are described under the heading “Risk Factors” in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), and in our other filings with the SEC, and in our future reports to be filed with the SEC and available at www.sec.gov. Such risks may be amplified by the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. Forward-looking statements contained in this presentation are made as of this date, and we undertake no duty to update such information whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required under applicable law. © 2023 Invivyd, Inc.
