SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties, and assumptions. Forward-looking statements are all statements, other than statements of historical facts, that discuss our current expectation and projections relating to our strategy, future operations, future financial position, future revenues, projected costs, prospects, plans, and objectives of management. These statements may be preceded by, followed by or include the words "aim," "anticipate," "believe," "can," "could," "estimate," "expect," "forecast," "intend," "likely," "may," "might," "outlook," "plan," "potential," "predict," "project," "seek," "should," "will," "would," the negatives or plurals thereof, and other words and terms of similar meaning, although not all forward-looking statements contain these identifying words.

We have based these forward-looking statements on our current expectations and projections about future events. Although we believe that our assumptions made in connection with the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot assure you that the assumptions and expectations will prove to be correct. You should understand that the following important factors could affect our future results and could cause those results or other outcomes to differ materially from those expressed or implied in our forward-looking statements:

•the scope, progress, results and costs of clinical trials for our drug candidates;

•the cost of manufacturing drug supply for our commercial, clinical and preclinical studies, including the cost of manufacturing Pombiliti® (also referred to as "ATB200" or "cipaglucosidase alfa");

•the future results of preclinical research and subsequent clinical trials for pipeline candidates we may identify from time to time, including our ability to obtain regulatory approvals and commercialize such therapies;

•the costs, timing, and outcome of regulatory review of our product candidates;

•any changes in regulatory standards relating to the review of our product candidates;

•any changes in laws, rules or regulations affecting our ability to manufacture, transport, test, develop, or commercialize our products, including Galafold®, Pombiliti® + Opfolda®, or our product candidates;

•the costs of commercialization activities, including product marketing, sales, and distribution;

•the emergence of competing technologies and other adverse market developments;

•the estimates regarding the potential market opportunity for our products and product candidates;

•our ability to successfully commercialize Galafold® (also referred to as "migalastat HCl");

•our ability to successfully commercialize Pombiliti® + Opfolda® (together, also referred to as "AT-GAA") in the E.U., U.K., and U.S., and elsewhere, if regulatory applications are approved;

•our ability to manufacture or supply sufficient clinical or commercial products, including Galafold® and Pombiliti® + Opfolda®;

•our ability to obtain reimbursement for Galafold® and Pombiliti® + Opfolda®;

•our ability to satisfy post-marketing commitments or requirements for continued regulatory approval of Galafold® and Pombiliti® + Opfolda®;

•our ability to obtain market acceptance of Galafold® and Pombiliti® + Opfolda®, or any other product developed or acquired that has received regulatory approval;

•the costs of preparing, filing, and prosecuting patent applications and maintaining, enforcing, and defending intellectual property-related claims, including Hatch-Waxman litigation;

•the impact of litigation that has been or may be brought against us or of litigation that we are pursuing or may pursue against others, including Hatch-Waxman litigation;

•the extent to which we acquire or invest in businesses, products, and technologies;

•our ability to successfully integrate acquired products and technologies into our business, or successfully divest or license existing products and technologies from our business, including the possibility that the expected benefits of the transactions will not be fully realized by us or may take longer to realize than expected;

•our ability to establish licensing agreements, collaborations, partnerships or other similar arrangements and to obtain milestone, royalty, or other economic benefits from any such collaborators;

•the costs associated with, and our ability to comply with, emerging environmental, social and governance standards, including climate reporting requirements at the local, state and national levels;

•our ability to successfully protect our information technology systems and maintain our global operations and supply chain without interruption;

•our ability to accurately forecast revenue, operating expenditures, or other metrics impacting profitability;

•fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates; and

•changes in accounting standards.

In light of these risks and uncertainties, 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. Actual results or events could differ materially from the plans, intentions, and expectations disclosed in the forward-looking statements we make. We have included important factors in the cautionary statements included in Part I Item 1A — Risk Factors of the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, that we believe could cause actual results or events to differ materially from the forward-looking statements that we make. Those factors and the other risk factors described herein are not necessarily all of the important factors that could cause actual results or developments to differ materially from those expressed in any of our forward-looking statements. Other unknown or unpredictable factors also could harm our results. Our forward-looking statements do not reflect the potential impact of any future collaborations, alliances, business combinations, partnerships, strategic out-licensing of certain assets, the acquisition of preclinical-stage, clinical-stage, marketed products or platform technologies or other investments we may make. Consequently, there can be no assurance that actual results or developments anticipated by us will be realized or, even if substantially realized, that they will have the expected consequences to, or effects on, us. Given these uncertainties, investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements.

You should read this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 (including the documents incorporated by reference therein) completely and with the understanding that our actual future results may be materially different from what we expect. These forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this report. We undertake no obligation, and specifically decline any obligation, to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, even if experience or future developments make it clear that projected results expressed or implied in such statements will not be realized, except as may be required by law.

1. Description of Business

Amicus Therapeutics, Inc. (the "Company") is a global, patient-dedicated biotechnology company focused on discovering, developing, and delivering novel medicines for rare diseases. The Company seeks to deliver the highest quality therapies that have the potential to obsolete current treatments, provide significant benefits to patients, and be first- or best-in-class. The Company's two marketed therapies are Galafold®, the first oral monotherapy for people living with Fabry disease who have amenable genetic variants, and Pombiliti® + Opfolda®, a novel treatment designed to improve uptake of active enzyme into key disease relevant tissues for adults living with late-onset Pompe disease.

Galafold® (also referred to as "migalastat"), is approved in over 40 countries around the world, including the United States ("U.S."), European Union ("E.U."), United Kingdom ("U.K."), and Japan. Additionally, Galafold® has been granted orphan drug designation in the U.S., E.U., U.K., Japan and several other countries.

Pombiliti® + Opfolda® (also referred to as "cipaglucosidase alfa-atga/miglustat"), is approved in the U.S., the E.U., the U.K., and Switzerland. Multiple regulatory submissions and reimbursement processes with global health authorities are currently underway. Additionally, Pombiliti® + Opfolda® has been granted orphan drug designation in the U.S., E.U., U.K., Japan and several other countries.

The Company had an accumulated deficit of $2.7 billion as of June 30, 2024 and anticipates incurring losses through the fiscal year ending December 31, 2024. The Company has historically funded its operations through stock offerings, product revenues, debt issuances, collaborations, and other financing arrangements.

Based on its current operating model, which includes expected revenues, the Company believes the current cash position is sufficient to fund the Company's operations and ongoing research programs for at least the next 12 months. Potential business development opportunities, pipeline expansion, and investment in manufacturing capabilities could impact the Company's long-term capital requirements.

Accordingly, certain financial information that is normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, but that is not required for interim reporting purposes, has been omitted. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements reflect all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the Company's interim financial information. Management has determined that the Company operates in one segment focused on the discovery, development, and commercialization of advanced therapies to treat a range of devastating rare and orphan diseases.

The accompanying unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with the Company's financial statements and related notes as contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023. For a complete description of the Company's accounting policies, please refer to the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023.

Consolidation

The Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. Intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.

Foreign Currency Transactions

The functional currency for most of the Company's foreign subsidiaries is their local currency. For non-U.S. subsidiaries that transact in a functional currency other than the U.S. dollar, assets and liabilities are translated at current rates of exchange at the balance sheet date. Income and expense items are translated at the weighted average foreign exchange rates for the

period. Adjustments resulting from the translation of the financial statements of the Company's foreign operations into U.S. dollars are excluded from the determination of net income and are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income, a separate component of stockholders' equity. Transactions which are not in the functional currency of the entity are remeasured into the functional currency with gains or losses resulting from the remeasurement recorded in other expense.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash, Cash Equivalents, Marketable Securities, and Restricted Cash

The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with a maturity of three months or less at the date of acquisition to be cash equivalents. Marketable securities consist of fixed income investments with a maturity of greater than three months and other highly liquid investments that can be readily purchased or sold using established markets. These investments are classified as available-for-sale and are reported at fair value on the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets. Unrealized holding gains and losses are reported within other comprehensive gain in the Company's Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Loss. Fair value is based on available market information including quoted market prices, broker or dealer quotations, or other observable inputs.

Restricted cash consists primarily of funds held to satisfy the requirements of certain agreements that are restricted in their use and is included as a component of other non-current assets on the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Concentration of Credit Risk

The Company's financial instruments that are exposed to concentration of credit risk consist primarily of cash, cash equivalents, marketable securities, and accounts receivable.

The Company maintains its cash and cash equivalents in bank accounts, which, at times, exceed federally insured limits. The Company invests its marketable securities in high-quality commercial financial instruments. The Company has not recognized any losses from credit risks on such accounts during any of the periods presented. The Company believes it is not exposed to significant credit risk on its cash, cash equivalents, or marketable securities.

The Company's accounts receivable at June 30, 2024 have primarily arisen from Galafold® sales in Europe, the U.S., and Japan. The Company periodically assesses the financial strength of its customers to establish allowances for anticipated losses, if any. For accounts receivable that have arisen from named patient sales, the payment terms are predetermined, and the Company evaluates the creditworthiness of each customer on a regular basis. As of June 30, 2024, the Company's allowance for doubtful accounts was $0.4 million.

Revenue Recognition

The Company has recorded revenue on sales where its products are available either on a commercial basis or through a reimbursed early access program. Product orders are generally received from distributors and pharmacies.

The Company recognizes revenue when its performance obligation to its customers have been satisfied, which occurs at a point in time when the pharmacies or distributors obtain control of the products. The transaction price is determined based on fixed consideration in the Company's customer contracts and is recorded net of estimates for variable consideration, which primarily consist of third-party discounts and rebates. The identified variable consideration is recorded as a reduction of revenue at the time revenue from the sale is recognized. The Company recognizes revenue to the extent that it is probable that a significant revenue reversal will not occur in a future period. These estimates may differ from actual consideration received. The Company evaluates these estimates each reporting period to reflect known changes.

Total net product sales	$	126,669	$	94,503	$	237,072	$	180,773

Inventories and Cost of Goods Sold

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realizable value, determined by the first-in, first-out method. Inventories are reviewed periodically to identify slow-moving or obsolete inventory based on projected sales activity as well as product shelf-life. In evaluating the recoverability of inventories produced, the probability that revenue will be obtained from the future sale of the related inventory is considered and inventory value is written down for inventory quantities in excess of expected requirements. Expired inventory is disposed of and the related costs are recognized as cost of goods sold in the Company's Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Cost of goods sold includes the cost of inventory sold, manufacturing and supply chain costs, product shipping and handling costs, provisions for excess and obsolete inventory, as well as royalties payable. A portion of Pombiliti® + Opfolda® inventory was expensed as research and development costs prior to regulatory approval and as such, the cost of goods sold and related gross margins are not necessarily indicative of future costs of goods sold and gross margin.

Recent Accounting Developments - Guidance Adopted in 2024

In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued the Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. The amendments expand reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. The amendments require, among other things, disclosure of the title and position of the chief operating decision maker and require that public entities with a single reportable segment provide all disclosures required by this update and existing segment disclosures in Topic 280. Annual disclosures are required for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023 and interim disclosures are required for periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Retrospective application is required unless it is impracticable, and early adoption is permitted. The Company adopted this guidance on January 1, 2024. This ASU applies to disclosure requirements only, and the Company will provide required annual disclosures as part of the 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K and required interim disclosures as part of 2025 Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q.

Recent Accounting Developments - Guidance Not Yet Adopted

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. The ASU requires disclosure of disaggregated income taxes paid, prescribes standard categories for the components of the effective tax rate reconciliation, and modifies other income tax-related disclosures. ASU 2023-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, must be applied prospectively with an option to apply retrospectively, and early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

3. Cash, Cash Equivalents, Marketable Securities, and Restricted Cash

As of June 30, 2024, the Company held $209.3 million in cash and cash equivalents and $50.7 million of marketable securities which are reported at fair value on the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets. Unrealized holding gains and losses are generally reported within other comprehensive gain in the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Loss. If a decline in the fair value of a marketable security below the Company's cost basis is determined to be other-than-temporary or if an available-for-sale debt security’s fair value is determined to be less than the amortized cost and the Company intends or is more than likely to sell the security before recovery and it is not considered a credit loss, such security is written down to its estimated fair value as a new cost basis and the amount of the write-down is included in the Consolidated Statements of Operations as an impairment charge. If the unrealized loss of an available-for-sale debt security is determined to be a result of credit loss, the Company would recognize an allowance and the corresponding credit loss would be included in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

The Company regularly invests excess operating cash in deposits with major financial institutions, money market funds, notes issued by the U.S. government, as well as fixed income investments and U.S. bond funds, both of which can be readily purchased and sold using established markets. The Company believes that the market risk arising from its holdings of these financial instruments is mitigated as, in accordance with Company policy, such securities are of high credit rating. Investments that have original maturities greater than three months but less than one year are classified as current.

Cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities are classified as current unless mentioned otherwise below and consisted of the following:


	As of June 30, 2024

Total cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities	$	286,190	$	14	$	(4)	$	286,200

For both the six months ended June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2023, there were no realized gains or losses. The cost of securities sold is based on the specific identification method.

Unrealized loss positions in the marketable securities as of June 30, 2024 reflect temporary impairments and are not a result of credit loss. Additionally, as these positions have been in a loss position for less than twelve months and the Company does not intend to sell these securities before recovery, the losses are recognized as a component of other comprehensive gain. The fair value of these marketable securities in unrealized loss positions are $45.7 million and $11.4 million as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.

The following table provides a reconciliation of cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash reported within the Consolidated Balance Sheets that sum to the total shown in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

Amortization of deferred financing	$	124	$	297	$	233	$	583

6. Restructuring

In the first quarter of 2024, restructuring charges were primarily related to an initiative to reduce operating costs by abandoning one of the Company's leases that it no longer believes is necessary to conduct its operations. There were no restructuring charges in the second quarter of 2024.

The associated liabilities are recorded in accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. Total charges incurred are summarized as follows:


(in thousands)	Other Facility and Non-Lease Costs		Accelerated Depreciation		Total

Balance as of June 30, 2024	$	2,262	$	—	$	2,262

7. Stock-Based Compensation

The Amended and Restated 2007 Equity Incentive Plan (the "Plan") provides for the granting of restricted stock units and options to purchase common stock in the Company to employees, directors, advisors, and consultants at a price to be determined by the Board of Directors. The Plan is intended to encourage ownership of stock by employees and consultants of the Company and to provide additional incentives for them to promote the success of the business. The Board of Directors, or its committee, is responsible for determining the individuals to be granted options, the number of options each individual will receive, the option price per share, and the exercise period of each option.

Stock Option Grants

The fair value of the stock options granted were estimated on the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions:


	Three Months Ended June 30,						Six Months Ended June 30,
	2024			2023			2024			2023
Expected stock price volatility	56.6		%	59.2		%	57.2		%	59.3		%
Risk free interest rate	4.3		%	3.8		%	4.0		%	3.9		%
Expected life of options (years)	5.6			5.5			5.6			5.5
Expected annual dividend per share	$	—		$	—		$	—		$	—

A summary of the Company's stock options for the six months ended June 30, 2024 were as follows:


	Number of Shares	Weighted Average Exercise Price		Weighted Average Remaining Years	Aggregate Intrinsic Value
	(in thousands)				(in millions)
Options outstanding, December 31, 2023	23,002	$	11.69
Granted	4,521	$	13.79
Exercised	(576)	$	7.50
Forfeited	(305)	$	12.61
Expired	(106)	$	15.44
Options outstanding, June 30, 2024	26,536	$	12.11	6.3	$	8.6
Vested and non-vested expected to vest, June 30, 2024	24,787	$	12.07	6.1	$	8.5
Exercisable at June 30, 2024	16,639	$	11.67	4.9	$	8.3

As of June 30, 2024, the total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested stock options granted was $49.7 million and is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of three years.

Restricted Stock Units and Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units (collectively "RSUs")

RSUs awarded under the Plan are generally subject to graded vesting and are contingent on an employee's continued service. RSUs are generally subject to forfeiture if employment terminates prior to the release of vesting restrictions. The Company expenses the cost of the RSUs, which is determined to be the fair market value of the shares of common stock underlying the RSUs at the date of grant, ratably over the period during which the vesting restrictions lapse. A summary of non-vested RSU activity under the Plan for the six months ended June 30, 2024 is as follows:


	Number of Shares	Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value		Weighted Average Remaining Years	Aggregate Intrinsic Value
	(in thousands)				(in millions)
Non-vested units as of December 31, 2023	10,033	$	13.37
Granted	3,430	$	15.07
Vested	(3,503)	$	13.36
Forfeited	(415)	$	14.57
Non-vested units as of June 30, 2024	9,545	$	13.90	2.4	$	94.7

As of June 30, 2024, there was $70.0 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested RSUs with service-based vesting conditions. These costs are expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of two years.

Compensation Expense Related to Equity Awards

The following table summarizes information related to compensation expense recognized in the Company's Consolidated Statements of Operations related to the equity awards:


	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,
(in thousands)	2024		2023		2024		2023

Total equity compensation expense	$	16,197	$	16,577	$	47,000	$	51,471

8. Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value

The Company's financial assets and liabilities are measured at fair value and classified within the fair value hierarchy, which is defined as follows:

Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date.

Level 2 — Inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.

Level 3 — Inputs that are unobservable for the asset or liability.

A summary of the fair value of the Company's recurring assets and liabilities aggregated by the level in the fair value hierarchy within which those measurements fall as of June 30, 2024 are identified in the following tables:


(in thousands)	Level 1		Level 2		Total
Assets:
Commercial paper	$	—	$	45,657	$	45,657
Treasury bill	—		4,918		4,918
U.S. government agency bonds	—		1		1
Money market	7,441		—		7,441
	$	7,441	$	50,576	$	58,017

Liabilities:
Deferred compensation plan liability	$	7,341	$	—	$	7,341
	$	7,341	$	—	$	7,341

A summary of the fair value of the Company's recurring assets and liabilities aggregated by the level in the fair value hierarchy within which those measurements fall as of December 31, 2023 are identified in the following tables:


(in thousands)	Level 1		Level 2		Total
Assets:
Commercial paper	$	—	$	14,663	$	14,663
Treasury bill	—		12,946		12,946

Money market	7,631		—		7,631
	$	7,631	$	39,055	$	46,686


(in thousands)	Level 1		Level 2		Total
Liabilities:
Deferred compensation plan liability	7,531		—		7,531
	$	7,531	$	—	$	7,531

Deferred compensation plan liability is recorded as a component of other non-current liabilities on the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company did not have any Level 3 assets or liabilities as of June 30, 2024 or December 31, 2023.

Cash, Money Market Funds, and Marketable Securities

The Company classifies its cash and money market funds within the fair value hierarchy as Level 1 as these assets are valued using quoted prices in an active market for identical assets at the measurement date. The Company considers its investments in marketable securities as available-for-sale and classifies these assets within the fair value hierarchy as Level 2 primarily utilizing broker quotes in a non-active market for valuation of these securities.

9. Basic and Diluted Net Loss per Common Share

The following table provides a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator used in computing basic and diluted net loss attributable to common stockholders per common share:


	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,
(in thousands, except per share amounts)	2024		2023		2024		2023
Numerator:
Net loss attributable to common stockholders	$	(15,697)	$	(43,232)	$	(64,116)	$	(96,164)
Denominator:
Weighted average common shares outstanding — basic and diluted	303,773,922		292,797,002		303,336,787		292,071,201

Dilutive common stock equivalents would include the dilutive effect of outstanding common stock options and non-vested RSUs. Potentially dilutive common stock equivalents were excluded from the diluted earnings per share denominator for all periods because of their anti-dilutive effect. Weighted average common shares outstanding includes outstanding pre-funded warrants with an exercise price of $0.01.

The table below presents potential shares of common stock that were excluded from the computation as they were anti-dilutive using the treasury stock method:


	As of June 30,
(in thousands)	2024	2023
Options to purchase common stock	26,536	23,408
Non-vested restricted stock units	9,545	10,365
Total number of potentially issuable shares	36,081	33,773

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements and the notes thereto included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the audited Consolidated Financial Statements and the notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023. Some of the statements we make in this section are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws. For a complete discussion of forward-looking statements, see the section in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q entitled “Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements”. Certain risk factors may cause actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from those expressed or implied by the following discussion. For a discussion of such risk factors, see the section in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 entitled “Risk Factors”.

Overview

We are a global, patient-dedicated biotechnology company focused on discovering, developing, and delivering novel medicines for rare diseases. We seek to deliver the highest quality therapies that have the potential to obsolete current treatments, provide significant benefits to patients, and be first- or best-in-class. Our two marketed therapies are Galafold®, the first oral monotherapy for people living with Fabry disease who have amenable genetic variants, and Pombiliti® + Opfolda®, a novel treatment designed to improve uptake of active enzyme into key disease relevant tissues for adults living with late-onset Pompe disease.

Galafold® (also referred to as "migalastat") is approved in over 40 countries around the world, including the United States ("U.S."), European Union ("E.U."), United Kingdom ("U.K."), and Japan. Additionally, Galafold® has been granted orphan drug designation in the U.S., E.U., U.K., Japan and several other countries.

Pombiliti® + Opfolda® (also referred to as "cipaglucosidase alfa-atga/miglustat") is approved in the U.S., the E.U., the U.K., and Switzerland. Multiple regulatory submissions and reimbursement processes with global health authorities are currently underway. Additionally, Pombiliti® + Opfolda® has been granted orphan drug designation in the U.S., E.U., U.K., Japan and several other countries.

Our Strategy

Our strategy is to create, manufacture, test, and deliver the highest quality medicines for people living with rare diseases through internally developed, jointly developed, acquired, or in-licensed products and product candidates. We are leveraging our global capabilities to develop and broaden our franchises in Fabry and Pompe disease, with focused discovery work on next generation therapies and novel technologies.

Highlights of our progress include:

•Commercial success in Fabry disease. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, Galafold® revenue was $210.2 million of consolidated revenue, which represented an increase of $29.7 million compared the same period in the prior year. We continue to see strong commercial momentum and expansion into additional geographies.

•Commercial and regulatory success in Pompe disease. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, Pombiliti® + Opfolda® revenue was $26.9 million of consolidated revenue. Pombiliti® + Opfolda® was approved by the European Commission ("EC") in June 2023, the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency ("MHRA)" of the United Kingdom in August 2023, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration ("FDA") in September 2023, and the Swissmedic of Switzerland in July 2024.

•Pipeline advancement and growth. We are leveraging our global capabilities to develop and broaden our franchises in Fabry and Pompe disease, with focused discovery work on next generation therapies and novel technologies.

•Financial strength. Total cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities as of June 30, 2024 was $260.1 million.

Our Commercial Products and Product Candidates

Galafold® (migalastat HCl) for Fabry Disease

Our oral precision medicine, Galafold®, was granted accelerated approval by the FDA in August 2018 for the treatment of adults with a confirmed diagnosis of Fabry disease and an amenable galactosidase alpha gene ("GLA") variant based on in vitro assay data. Galafold® was approved in the E.U. and U.K. in May 2016 as a first-line therapy for long-term treatment of adults and adolescents, aged 16 years and older, with a confirmed diagnosis of Fabry disease and who have an amenable variant. Marketing authorization approvals as well as approvals for adolescents aged 12 years and older weighing 45 kg or more have been granted in over 40 countries around the world. We plan to continue to launch Galafold® in additional countries, including for adolescents aged 12 years and older, upon receipt of marketing authorization.

As an orally administered monotherapy, Galafold® is designed to bind to and stabilize an endogenous alpha-galactosidase A ("alpha-Gal A") enzyme in those patients with genetic variants identified as amenable in a Good Laboratory Practice ("GLP") cell-based amenability assay.

Pombiliti® (cipaglucosidase alfa-atga) + Opfolda® (miglustat) for Pompe Disease

We have leveraged our biologics capabilities to develop Pombiliti® + Opfolda®, a novel treatment paradigm for late-onset Pompe disease. Pombiliti® + Opfolda® was approved by the EC in June 2023, the MHRA in August 2023, the FDA in September 2023, and the Swissmedic in July 2024. Additional regulatory submissions and reimbursement processes with global health authorities are currently underway.

Pombiliti® + Opfolda® consists of a uniquely engineered rhGAA enzyme, cipaglucosidase alfa-atga, with an optimized carbohydrate structure to enhance lysosomal uptake, administered in combination with miglustat that functions as an enzyme stabilizer. Miglustat binds to and stabilizes cipaglucosidase alfa-atga reducing inactivation of rhGAA in circulation to improve the uptake of active enzyme into key disease relevant tissues. Miglustat is not an active ingredient that contributes directly to glycogen reduction.

In addition, clinical studies are ongoing in pediatric patients for both the late-onset Pompe disease ("LOPD") and infantile-onset Pompe disease ("IOPD") populations.

Next Generation Therapies

We are committed to continued innovation for all people living with Fabry or Pompe disease. As part of our long-term commitment, we are also continuing discovery for next-generation genetic medicines for Fabry and Pompe disease.

Strategic Alliances and Arrangements

We will continue to evaluate business development opportunities as appropriate to build stockholder value and provide us with access to the financial, technical, clinical, and commercial resources and intellectual property necessary to develop and market technologies or products with a focus on rare and orphan diseases. We are exploring potential collaborations, alliances, and various other business development opportunities on a regular basis. These opportunities may include business combinations, partnerships, the strategic out-licensing of certain assets, or the acquisition of preclinical-stage, clinical-stage, or marketed products or novel technologies consistent with our strategic plan to develop and provide therapies to patients living with rare and orphan diseases.

Net loss attributable to common stockholders	$	(15,697)		$	(43,232)		$	27,535

Net Product Sales. Net product sales increased $32.2 million during the three months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the same period in the prior year. The increase was primarily due to both the continued growth of Galafold® in Europe and the U.S. as well as the launch of Pombiliti® + Opfolda® in Europe and the U.S., partially offset by the $1.5 million unfavorable impact of foreign currency exchange.

Research and Development Expense. The following table summarizes our principal development programs and the out-of-pocket, third-party expenses incurred:


(in thousands)	Three Months Ended June 30,
Projects	2024		2023
Third party direct project expenses
Galafold® (Fabry Disease)	$	2,225	$	3,822
Pombiliti® + Opfolda® (Pompe Disease)	9,093		13,117
Pre-clinical and other programs	832		865
Total third-party direct project expenses	12,150		17,804
Other project costs
Personnel costs	9,675		13,662
Other costs	2,858		3,683
Total other project costs	12,533		17,345
Total research and development costs	$	24,683	$	35,149

The $10.5 million decrease in research and development costs was primarily driven by our Pombiliti® + Opfolda® commercial launch, decreasing both clinical spend and the number of employees supporting research and development efforts.

Selling, General, and Administrative Expense. Selling, general, and administrative expense increased $8.2 million, primarily driven by personnel costs resulting from an increase in the number of employees to support our commercial launch activities and external costs required to support the manufacture and sale of our commercial products.

Other Expense. The $7.2 million variance was primarily related to movement in foreign exchange rates caused by remeasurement of foreign-denominated balances.

Income Tax Expense. We are subject to income taxes in various jurisdictions. Our tax liabilities are largely dependent on the mix of pre-tax earnings among the many jurisdictions in which we operate and differences in the timing of the recognition of such earnings under the relevant accounting standards and tax rules.

Net loss attributable to common stockholders	$	(64,116)		$	(96,164)		$	32,048

Net Product Sales. Net product sales increased $56.3 million during the six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the same period in the prior year. The increase was primarily due to both the continued growth of Galafold® in Europe and the U.S. as well as the launch of Pombiliti® + Opfolda® in Europe and the U.S., partially offset by the $1.6 million unfavorable impact of foreign currency exchange.

Cost of goods sold. Cost of goods sold includes manufacturing costs as well as royalties associated with net product sales. Cost of goods sold as a percentage of net product sales increased 1.6% primarily due to inventory write-offs associated with validation efforts in the current period.

Research and Development Expense. The following table summarizes our principal development programs and the out-of-pocket, third-party expenses incurred:


(in thousands)	Six Months Ended June 30,
Projects	2024		2023
Third party direct project expenses
Galafold® (Fabry Disease)	$	4,040	$	6,466
Pombiliti® + Opfolda® (Pompe Disease)	20,413		28,893
Pre-clinical and other programs	1,449		1,465
Total third-party direct project expenses	25,902		36,824
Other project costs
Personnel costs	21,580		31,914
Other costs	5,530		7,910
Total other project costs	27,110		39,824
Total research and development costs	$	53,012	$	76,648

The $23.6 million decrease in research and development costs was primarily driven by our Pombiliti® + Opfolda® commercial launch, decreasing both clinical spend and the number of employees supporting research and development efforts.

Selling, General, and Administrative Expense. Selling, general, and administrative expense increased $22.2 million, primarily driven by personnel costs resulting from an increase in the number of employees to support our commercial launch activities, external costs required to support the manufacture and sale of our commercial products, and third-party professional fees.

Restructuring Charges. In the first quarter of 2024, restructuring charges were primarily related to an initiative to reduce operating costs by abandoning a lease that we no longer believe is useful in our operations. There were no restructuring charges in the second quarter of 2024.

Other Expense. The $8.2 million variance was primarily related to movement in foreign exchange rates caused by remeasurement of foreign-denominated balances.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As a result of our significant research and development expenditures, as well as expenditures to build a commercial organization to support the launch of Galafold® and Pombiliti® + Opfolda®, we have not been profitable and have generated operating losses since we were incorporated in 2002. We have historically funded our operations through stock offerings, product revenues, debt issuance, collaborations, and other financing arrangements.

Sources of Liquidity

In November 2022, we entered into a Sales Agreement with The Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC to create an at-the-market equity program ("ATM program"), pursuant to which we may offer to sell shares of our common stock having an aggregate offering gross proceeds of up to $250.0 million. As of June 30, 2024, an aggregate of $184.4 million worth of shares remain available to be issued and sold under the ATM program.

Cash Flow Discussion

As of June 30, 2024, we had cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities of $260.1 million. We invest cash in excess of our immediate requirements in regard to liquidity and capital preservation in a variety of interest-bearing instruments, including obligations of U.S. government agencies and money market accounts. Wherever possible, we seek to minimize the potential effects of concentration and degrees of risk. Although we maintain cash balances with financial institutions in excess of insured limits, we do not anticipate any losses with respect to such cash balances. For more details on the cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities, refer to "— Note 3. Cash, Cash Equivalents, Marketable Securities, and Restricted Cash," in our Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Net Cash Used in Operating Activities
