Juvmo (tavapadon) Royalty Transaction
On September 29, 2026, DRI Healthcare completed the acquisition of royalty participation rights in the U.S. net sales of Juvmo (tavapadon) from funds managed by Bain Capital and NovaQuest Capital Management for a purchase price of $316 million. The transaction entitles DRI Healthcare to tiered royalties on annual U.S. net sales of Juvmo, certain sales-based milestone payments, and four annual fixed payments of approximately $23.4 million each, with aggregate receipts subject to a contractual cap of $437.5 million. The purchase price was funded through a combination of cash on hand and borrowings under the credit facility. Royalty receipts will be collected quarterly on a one-quarter lag, with the first receipt expected in the quarter following the first commercial sale of Juvmo in the U.S.
Ekterly Disposition
On July 6, 2026, DRI Healthcare exercised its Put Option with respect to its royalty participation right in Ekterly, for a total net repurchase price of $178.2 million. The Put Option has been exercised following the acquisition of KalVista Pharmaceuticals, Inc. by Chiesi Group on June 11, 2026. On August 7, 2026, the Put Price payment was received in accordance with the terms of the royalty agreement and upon receipt, DRI Healthcare ceased to be entitled to any royalty participation rights in Ekterly and is no longer liable for the potential sales-based milestone payment to KalVista.
Lumvoa and elegrobart Royalty Transaction
On June 26, 2026, the FDA approved Lumvoa for the treatment of thyroid eye disease (“TED”). In connection with this approval, DRI Healthcare recognized a milestone payable of $75 million to Viridian during the nine months ended September 30, 2026, which, together with $40 million of pre-specified clinical milestones relating to elegrobart that were not achieved, reduced DRI Healthcare’s maximum remaining potential milestone obligation to $130 million. The milestone payment was funded using cash on hand and borrowings under the credit facility on July 10, 2026.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures and non-GAAP ratios for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 and September 30, 2025 to the most directly comparable measures calculated in accordance with IFRS are presented below.
Total Cash Receipts, Normalized Total Cash Receipts and Total Cash Royalty Receipts
Total Cash Receipts refers to Total Cash Royalty Receipts plus cash receipts from all products. Total Cash Receipts includes cash receipts from interest as well as non-recurring cash receipts.
Total Cash Royalty Receipts refers to aggregate cash royalty receipts and milestone royalty receipts from our portfolio of royalty assets and forms part of Total Cash Receipts. Because of the lag between when we record royalty income and receive the corresponding cash payments on our royalties and milestones, we believe Total Cash Receipts and Total Cash Royalty Receipts are useful measures when evaluating our operations, as they represent actual cash generated in respect of all royalty assets held during a period. We also present Normalized Total Cash Receipts, which refers to Total Cash Receipts adjusted to remove cash receipts that are not expected to recur in the normal course of our operations. We believe that Normalized Total Cash Receipts will assist readers in evaluating the period-over-period performance of our royalty portfolio since Normalized Total Cash Receipts only includes cash receipts generated by royalties and other amounts payable pursuant to the terms of our royalty assets. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, Total Cash Receipts were adjusted for the proceeds from disposition of the Ekterly royalty asset, as described on page 5 of DRI Healthcare’s third quarter 2026 MD&A, to calculate Normalized Total Cash Receipts.

Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin
We believe Adjusted EBITDA provides meaningful information about our operating cash flows as it eliminates the effects of other noncash expenses and accruals and income and expenses not expected to recur that have been recorded on the interim condensed consolidated statements of net earnings (loss) and comprehensive earnings (loss). We refer to EBITDA when reconciling our net earnings (loss) and comprehensive earnings (loss) to Adjusted EBITDA, but we do not use EBITDA as a measure of our performance.
The reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to its most directly comparable measures calculated in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards as issued by the IASB is presented below.
