TBPHHIGH SIGNALRISK10-K

TBPH's ampreloxetine Phase 3 CYPRESS study failed to meet its primary endpoint, triggering a full program wind-down and an accelerated strategic review including a potential sale of the company.

The failure of ampreloxetine — previously described as a potential first-in-class therapy and the company's primary late-stage pipeline asset — eliminates what was a core driver of long-term valuation for TBPH. With that program discontinued, the Strategic Review Committee is now working with urgency alongside Lazard to evaluate value-maximizing alternatives, including an outright sale, which signals the board may view standalone operations as insufficient to justify the company's continued independence. Investors face meaningful binary-event risk resolution: while a sale process could surface a control premium, the absence of a key pipeline asset materially weakens TBPH's negotiating position and strategic optionality.

FINANCIAL ANALYSIS

Revenue declined substantially year-over-year, falling from $48.6M to $15.4M, consistent with a business that has lost or is winding down a key commercial contributor — the prior filing had highlighted YUPELRI net sales growth that is no longer referenced. Operating loss improved meaningfully, narrowing from -$46.9M to -$3.6M, though this likely reflects reduced pipeline spend rather than underlying business strength. On the balance sheet, stockholders' equity expanded to $296.7M from $175.5M and total assets grew by 37.1%, while share buyback activity essentially ceased (down over 99%), suggesting the company preserved capital — potentially in anticipation of the strategic review process — even as the revenue base contracted sharply.

Recent Significant Developments Ampreloxetine Phase 3 Clinical Study Top-line Results On March 3, 2026, we announced that our ampreloxetine Phase 3 clinical study (CYPRESS) in development for the treatment of symptomatic neurogenic orthostatic hypotension in patients with multiple system atrophy did not meet its primary endpoint in the Orthostatic Hypotension Symptom Assessment composite score.
As a result of this outcome, we have decided to wind down the ampreloxetine program.
Strategic Review Committee In connection with the CYPRESS study results, the Strategic Review Committee of our Board of Directors (the "Committee") is accelerating its ongoing review of alternatives to maximize value for shareholders.
Since its formation in 2024, the Committee has been working on an ongoing basis with Lazard, its independent financial advisor, to evaluate opportunities available to the Company, including under multiple potential outcomes for the CYPRESS study.
Building upon this work, the Committee will act with urgency to evaluate a broad range of value maximizing and tax efficient alternatives, including but not limited to a sale of the Company.
There can be no assurance that the Committee's strategic review process will result in any transaction.
We do not intend to disclose further developments on this review process unless and until it determines that such disclosure is appropriate or necessary.
As we proceed with the orderly wind down of the ampreloxetine program, we will complete additional analyses of the CYPRESS dataset and Phase 3 program, in consultation with external experts, to assess whether the data merits further regulatory discussion.
This assessment is intended to provide the Committee with additional clarity regarding any remaining value in ampreloxetine for our shareholders.

Ampreloxetine, our late-stage investigational once-daily norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor in development for the treatment of symptomatic neurogenic orthostatic hypotension ( nOH ) in patients with Multiple System Atrophy ( MSA ), has the potential to be a first in class therapy effective in treating a constellation of cardinal symptoms in MSA patients.
Recent Significant Developments YUPELRI Net Sales Growth In 2024, YUPELRI experienced net sales growth and reached launch-to-date highs in annual net sales and brand profitability.
Through the combined commercialization efforts with our partner Viatris Inc.
( Viatris ), total YUPELRI net sales increased by 8% to $238.6 million in 2024 compared to 2023.
Hospital volumes, which we are directly responsible for, grew 41% in 2024 compared to 2023 and continued to be a meaningful contributor to YUPELRI s overall net sales growth for the year.
Continued Enrollment in Ampreloxetine Phase 3 Clinical Study We continued to make steady progress with the open-label enrollment of our ampreloxetine Phase 3 clinical study (CYPRESS) in MSA patients with symptomatic nOH, using the Orthostatic Hypotension Symptom Assessment Scale ( OHSA ) composite score as the primary endpoint.
Current enrollment is in-line with expectations for completion in mid-2025, with data anticipated to be available approximately six months later.
TRELEGY s 2024 global net sales of $3.46 billion would exceed the threshold required to achieve $50.0 million of milestones in 2025 (based on $3.41 billion of global net sales) with only 2% growth required to achieve $100.0 million of milestones in 2026 (based on $3.51 billion of global net sales).
There can be no assurance that the Company s strategic review process will result in any transaction.
