On January 9, 2026, Intellia Therapeutics, Inc. (the “Company”) updated its corporate presentation for use in meetings with investors, analysts and others. A copy of the presentation is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.

The information under this Item 7.01, including Exhibit 99.1 hereto, is being furnished herewith and shall not be deemed “filed” for the purposes of Section 18 of the Exchange Act, or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall such information be deemed incorporated by reference into any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.

As the Company reported on October 27, 2025, Grade 4 liver transaminases and increased total bilirubin were reported in a patient who was dosed with nexiguran ziclumeran (“nex-z”) in the MAGNITUDE trial of nex-z for the treatment of transthyretin (“ATTR”) amyloidosis with cardiomyopathy (“ATTR-CM”). This case met the trial’s protocol-defined pausing criteria, and the United States Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”) subsequently placed a clinical hold on the Investigational New Drug applications for the MAGNITUDE and MAGNITUDE-2 Phase 3 clinical trials of nex-z.

As previously reported, the patient passed away on November 5, 2025. It was reported by the principal investigator that the patient died due to septic shock secondary to a perforated duodenal ulcer. The patient’s complicated clinical course also included acute liver injury and its treatment with corticosteroids. An autopsy report supported the clinical diagnoses.

To date, more than 650 patients with ATTR-CM are enrolled in MAGNITUDE, and 47 patients with hereditary ATTR amyloidosis with polyneuropathy (“ATTRv-PN”) are enrolled in MAGNITUDE-2. Grade 4 liver transaminase elevations have been reported in less than one percent of all patients enrolled in MAGNITUDE, and no Grade 4 liver transaminase elevations have been reported in MAGNITUDE-2. The onset of each of the Grade 4 events occurred within 3-5 weeks of dosing and, apart from the aforementioned case, resolved within several weeks of onset and without reported clinical sequelae.

The Company plans to provide an update after it has finalized a plan with regulators on the path forward for nex-z.
