Recent Strategic Highlights

• On January 31, 2025, completed upsized initial public offering and concurrent private placement, raising approximately $206.0 million in net proceeds to the company.
• Announced that effective February 1, 2025, Prime Therapeutics has added the iLet Bionic Pancreas and associated monthly supplies to its largest national commercial formulary.
  • Beta Bionics is actively working with the health plans that partner with Prime Therapeutics to drive coverage of iLet under their pharmacy benefit, per Prime's recommendation to the health plans.
  • For plans that cover the iLet Bionic Pancreas under their pharmacy benefit, this decision significantly reduces the potentially large up-front cost of the pump for both the patient and the plan, while easing the administrative burden for the physician when prescribing the iLet Bionic Pancreas.
• Initiated enrollment in March for the glucagon pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic bridging trial in Canada.
  • The trial is intended to enable Beta Bionics to bridge previous bihormonal clinical data, which tested prior formulations of glucagon in three pre-pivotal inpatient and six pre-pivotal outpatient clinical trials, to Beta Bionics' glucagon candidate developed by Xeris Pharmaceuticals for use in the bihormonal configuration of the iLet.
• Announced an investor event on June 22, 2025, to be hosted in conjunction with the 85th Scientific Sessions of the American Diabetes Association.
  • Agenda to include updates on commercial and financial performance, a demonstration of the patch pump in development, a review of the adaptive closed-loop algorithm, and new real-world data.

2025 Full Year Guidance

• Estimated total revenue of approximately $82 million to $87 million (previously $80 million to $85 million).
• Estimated 22% to 25% of new patient starts reimbursed through the PBP channel (previously greater than 20%).
• Estimated gross margin of 50% to 53% (previously at least 50%).

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Beta Bionics, Inc. (the "Company") prepares and presents the Company's financial statements in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP"). The Company believes adjusted EBITDA as a non-GAAP measure is useful in evaluating the Company's operating performance and uses adjusted EBITDA to evaluate ongoing operations and for internal planning and forecasting purposes. The Company believes that this non-GAAP financial measure, when taken together with the corresponding GAAP financial measures, provide meaningful supplemental information regarding the Company's performance by excluding certain items that may not be indicative of the Company's business, results of operations, or outlook. However, non-GAAP financial information is presented for supplemental informational purposes only, has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with GAAP. In addition, other companies, including companies in the Company's industry, may calculate similarly-titled non-GAAP measures differently or may use other measures to evaluate their performance, all of which could reduce the usefulness of the Company's non-GAAP financial measures as tools for comparison. A reconciliation is provided below for adjusted EBITDA to the most directly comparable financial measure stated in accordance with GAAP in Table E below.

The Company calculates adjusted EBITDA as net loss adjusted to exclude (i) depreciation and amortization expense, (ii) stock-based compensation expense, (iii) interest income, (iv) provision for state taxes and (v) change in fair value of warrant liabilities.

Some of the limitations of adjusted EBITDA include: (i) adjusted EBITDA does not properly reflect capital commitments to be paid in the future and (ii) although depreciation and amortization expense are non-cash charges, the underlying assets may need to be replaced and adjusted EBITDA does not reflect these capital expenditures. The Company's adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies because they may not calculate adjusted EBITDA in the same manner as the Company calculates the measure, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure. In evaluating adjusted EBITDA, you should be aware that in the future the Company will incur expenses similar to the adjustments in this presentation. The Company's presentation of adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an inference that the Company's future results will be unaffected by these expenses or any unusual or non-recurring items. When evaluating the Company's performance, you should consider adjusted EBITDA alongside other financial performance measures, including the Company's net loss and other GAAP results.

Investors are encouraged to review the related GAAP financial measures and the reconciliation of this non-GAAP financial measure to its most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, and not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate the Company's business. This non-GAAP measure has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be construed as an inference that the Company's future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items. Therefore, this non-GAAP financial measure should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, or in isolation from, measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.
