BNT-113

MAINZ, Germany, September 05, 2024 – BioNTech SE (Nasdaq: BNTX, “BioNTech” or “the Company”) will present clinical trial data for selected assets from its multi-platform oncology pipeline at the European Society for Molecular Oncology (“ESMO”) Congress 2024 in Barcelona, Spain from September 13-17, 2024. The oral and poster presentations will feature programs across BioNTech’s clinical pipeline, including mRNA-based cancer vaccines, next-generation immunomodulators and targeted therapy approaches. “We believe that the future of cancer treatment will be driven by the combination of modalities, including immunomodulators, targeted and mRNA-based therapies,” said Prof. Özlem Türeci, M.D., Co-Founder and Chief Medical Officer at BioNTech. “At this year’s ESMO, we will present data from three clinical trials with BNT327/PM8002, one of the key backbones for our combination treatment strategy. This bispecific antibody will be an element in multiple novel combination treatment approaches that may open up new synergistic mechanisms of action. Our mRNA platforms are another important component of our combination strategy. At ESMO, we will present clinical data that further support the proof of concept of our mRNA-based FixVac approach, which targets non-mutated tumor-associated antigens, showing early clinical activity across various indications.” Highlights of BioNTech’s clinical stage programs to be presented at ESMO Congress 2024: Updates on several Phase 2 and Phase 1/2 clinical trials evaluating BNT327/PM8002 in various indications as monotherapy and in combination with chemotherapy will be presented. BNT327/PM8002 is an investigational bispecific antibody combining PD-L1 checkpoint inhibition with VEGF-A neutralization for vascular normalization and immunostimulation in the microenvironment of the tumor. Two oral presentations and one poster will provide clinical data updates for cohorts with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (“NSCLC”), locally advanced/metastatic triple-negative breast cancer (“TNBC”) and advanced renal cell carcinoma. BNT327/PM8002 is being developed in collaboration with Biotheus Inc. (“Biotheus”).Preliminary data from an ongoing clinical Phase 2 trial (NCT04534205) evaluating BNT113 in combination with PD-1 blockade and data from an investigator-initiated Phase 1/2 clinical trial (NCT03418480) evaluating BNT113 as monotherapy in HPV16-driven cancers will be presented. The data show immunogenicity and antitumor activity in heavily pre-treated patients in several HPV16-positive indications, including head and neck cancer, and a manageable safety profile. BNT113 is an investigational lipoplex-formulated uridine mRNA immunotherapy encoding E6 and E7 antigens of HPV16.Preliminary data of the randomized Phase 2 clinical trial (NCT05446298) with BNT316/ONC-392 (gotistobart), an investigational anti-CTLA-4 antibody, in combination with pembrolizumab in patients with platinum-resistant recurrent ovarian cancer (“PROC”) will be presented in a late-breaking session. BNT316/ONC-392 is being developed in collaboration with OncoC4, Inc. (“OncoC4”).Follow-up data of activity and immune responses from the ongoing first-in-human Phase 1 clinical trial (NCT04503278) with BNT211 in patients with relapsed/refractory CLDN6+ solid tumors will be presented. BNT211 combines autologous CAR-T cells directed against the oncofetal antigen Claudin-6 (“CLDN6”) and an CLDN6-encoding CAR-T cell amplifying mRNA vaccine (“CARVac”). The data update shows signs of antitumor activity across all indications and an increased persistence of cancer-specific CAR-T cells when combined with CARVac, for example in patients with testicular and ovarian cancers. The safety profile is consistent with the previously published data of CAR-T therapies. BioNTech has established a diversified clinical oncology pipeline including mRNA-based therapeutic cancer vaccines, targeted therapies comprising cell therapies and ADCs, and novel immunomodulators in unmet medical need solid tumor indications. These investigational treatments are currently being evaluated in more than 32 clinical trials, including eight programs in advanced Phase 2 trials and two assets in pivotal Phase 3 trials globally. BioNTech is advancing the Company’s key programs into late-stage development with the aim of having ten or more potentially registrational trials in its oncology pipeline by the end of 2024.

These readouts reinforce the potential of our platform technologies including our individualized and off-the-shelf mRNA vaccine platforms, iNeST and FixVac. We have also advanced our strategy by initiating clinical trials evaluating novel combinations of synergistic drug candidates. Notably, we dosed the first patient in a trial evaluating the combination of the TROP2 antibody-drug conjugate BNT325/DB-1305 and the PD-L1-VEGF-A bispecific BNT327/PM8002, aiming to harness the potent anti-tumor activity of antibody drug conjugates along with the sustained benefit of immunomodulators,” said Prof. Ugur Sahin, M.D., CEO and Co-Founder of BioNTech. “In addition, we have started commercializing variant-adapted COVID-19 vaccines for the upcoming season, while accelerating our clinical development efforts to realize the full potential of our technologies. We are making progress towards our goal of becoming a company with marketed medicines for cancer and infectious diseases.” Financial Review for Second Quarter and First Half of 2024 in millions €, except per share data Second Quarter 2024 Second Quarter 2023 First Half 2024 First Half 2023Revenues 128.7 167.7 316.3 1,444.7Net Profit / (Loss) (807.8) (190.4) (1,122.9) 311.8(Loss) / Diluted Earnings per Share (3.36) (0.79) (4.67) 1.28 Revenues reported were €128.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, compared to €167.7 million for the comparative prior year period. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, revenues were €316.3 million, compared to €1,444.7 million for the comparative prior year period. The year-over-year change was mainly due to lower revenues from the sales of the Company’s COVID-19 vaccines worldwide resulting from the continued shift in demand from a pandemic to a seasonal endemic COVID-19 vaccine market. Cost of sales were €59.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, compared to €162.9 million for the comparative prior year period. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, cost of sales were €118.9 million, compared to €258.9 million for the comparative prior year period. The change was mainly due to COVID-19 vaccine production in line with demand. Research and development (“R&D”) expenses were €584.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, compared to €373.4 million for the comparative prior year period. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, R&D expenses were €1,092.1 million, compared to €707.4 million for the comparative prior year period. R&D expenses were mainly influenced by progressing clinical studies for the Company’s late-stage oncology pipeline candidates. Further contributions to the increase came from wages, benefits and social security expenses resulting from an increase in headcount. Sales, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses2, in total, amounted to €183.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, compared to €137.9 million for the comparative prior year period. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, SG&A expenses were €316.4 million, compared to €261.9 million for the comparative prior year period. SG&A expenses were primarily driven by increased expenses for IT environment and wages, benefits, and social security expenses resulting from an increase in headcount. Other operating result amounted to €266.7 million negative operating result during the three months ended June 30, 2024, compared to €56.8 million negative operating result for the comparative prior year period. For the six months ended June 30, 2023, other operating result amounted to €262.3 million negative operating result compared with €125.4 million negative operating result for the prior year period. This change was primarily due to the recording of a provision related to a contractual dispute. Income taxes were accrued with an amount of €2.0 million of tax expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2024, compared to €221.8 million of realized tax income for the comparative prior year period. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, income taxes were realized with an amount of €14.7 million of tax income for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to €16.3 million of realized tax income for the comparative prior year period. The effective income tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2024, was approximately 1.3%. Net loss was €807.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, compared to €190.4 million loss for the comparative prior year period. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, loss was €1,122.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to a profit of €311.8 million for the comparative prior year period. Cash and cash equivalents plus security investments as of June 30, 2024, reached €18,485.1 million, comprising €10,376.7 million cash and cash equivalents, €6,916.7 million current security investments and €1,191.7 million non-current security investments. This position increased during the second quarter of 2024 largely attributable to a cash payment received from BioNTech’s collaboration partner Pfizer Inc. (“Pfizer”). Loss per share was €3.36 for the three months ended June 30, 2024, compared to €0.79 for the comparative prior year period. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, loss per share was €4.67, compared to diluted earnings per share of €1.28 for the comparative prior year period. Shares outstanding as of June 30, 2024 were 237,766,235, excluding 10,785,965 shares held in treasury. “Our second quarter revenues correspond to the current demand of a seasonal endemic COVID-19 vaccine market,” said Jens Holstein, CFO of BioNTech. “Supported by our strong financial position, we will continue to focus on our long-term growth strategy throughout the remainder of the year. This includes our clinical pipeline for individualized therapies, the build-out of our manufacturing capacities and capabilities to support additional late-stage trials as well as our commercialization activities. These investments build the foundation for the next stage of growth and the transformation of BioNTech into a multi-product company.” 2024 Financial Year Guidance3 Reiterated The Company reiterates its prior outlook for the financial year: Total revenues for the 2024 financial year €2.5 billion - €3.1 billion BioNTech expects revenues for the full 2024 financial year to be in the range of €2.5 to €3.1 billion. The range reflects certain assumptions and expectations, including, but not limited to: the timing and granting of regulatory approvals and recommendations; COVID-19 vaccine uptake and price levels; inventory write-downs by BioNTech’s collaboration partner Pfizer that would negatively influence BioNTech’s revenues; seasonal variations in SARS-CoV-2 circulation and vaccination uptake, which are expected to lead to demand peaks in the autumn and winter compared to other seasons; and revenues from a pandemic preparedness contract with the German government as well as revenues from the BioNTech Group service businesses, namely InstaDeep Ltd., JPT Peptide Technologies GmbH, and in Idar-Oberstein at BioNTech Innovative Manufacturing Services GmbH. Generally, the Company continues to remain largely dependent on revenues generated in its collaboration partner’s territories in 2024. Planned 2024 Financial Year Expenses and Capex: R&D expenses4 €2.4 billion - €2.6 billion SG&A expenses €700 million - €800 million Capital expenditures for operating activities €400 million - €500 million The full interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements can be found in BioNTech’s Report on Form 6-K for the period ended June 30, 2024, filed today with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and available at https://www.sec.gov/.

It does not include potential payments resulting from the outcomes of ongoing and/or future legal disputes or related activity, such as judgements or settlements, which may have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations and/or cash flows. BioNTech continues to expect to report a loss for the 2024 financial year and expects to recognize the vast majority of its full year revenues mostly in the fourth quarter. 4 Numbers include effects identified from additional collaborations or potential M&A transactions to the extent disclosed and are subject to update due to future developments. Operational Review of the Second Quarter 2024, Key Post Period-End Events and Outlook Variant-adapted Monovalent COVID-19 Vaccines (COMIRNATY®) In April 2024, the World Health Organization (“WHO”), the European Medicines Agency (“EMA”) and, subsequently, other health authorities, provided guidance highlighting that updated vaccines targeting Omicron JN.1 or JN.1 sublineages may contribute to maintaining protection against COVID-19 during the upcoming fall and winter seasons. On June 27, 2024, BioNTech and Pfizer announced that the Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (“CHMP”) of the EMA recommended marketing authorization for the companies’ Omicron JN.1-adapted monovalent COVID-19 vaccine (COMIRNATY® JN.1) for active immunization to prevent COVID-19 caused by SARS-CoV-2 in individuals six months of age and older. On July 3, 2024, the European Commission (“EC”) adopted a decision following the CHMP’s recommendation. Shortly following the EC decision, the updated vaccine was made available to ship to EU member states.On June 6, 2024, the U.S. FDA’s Vaccines and Related Biological Products Advisory Committee (“VRBPAC”) issued guidance recommending the manufacturing of a JN.1-adapted monovalent COVID-19 vaccine for the 2024/2025 fall and winter seasons. On June 13, 2024, the U.S. FDA announced the KP.2 strain as the preferred JN.1-lineage for COVID-19 vaccines (2024-2025 Formula). In June 2024, BioNTech and Pfizer submitted regulatory applications to the U.S. FDA for the companies’ Omicron JN.1-adapted monovalent vaccine, and initiated a rolling sBLA for an Omicron KP.2-adapted monovalent vaccine. The companies plan to prepare shipments in the United States of KP.2-adapted monovalent COVID-19 vaccines for fast delivery following potential regulatory approval, currently expected in September 2024.On July 24, 2024, the United Kingdom’s Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (“MHRA”) approved the companies’ Omicron JN.1-adapted vaccine. COVID-19 – Influenza Combination Vaccine Program BNT162b2 + BNT161 is an mRNA-based combination vaccine program against COVID-19 and influenza being developed in collaboration with Pfizer. Top-line data from the Phase 1/2 trial (NCT05596734) demonstrated robust immune responses to influenza A, influenza B, and SARS-CoV-2 strains and that the safety profile of the candidates was consistent with the profile of the companies’ COVID-19 vaccine. A Phase 3 clinical trial (NCT06178991) is fully enrolled and data are expected later this year. Select Oncology Pipeline Highlights Cancer Vaccine Programs BNT111 is based on BioNTech’s FixVac platform, and is a wholly owned, systemically administered, off-the-shelf uridine mRNA-lipoplex based cancer vaccine candidate encoding shared melanoma associated antigens. A randomized Phase 2 clinical trial (NCT04526899) being conducted in collaboration with Regeneron Pharmaceuticals Inc. (“Regeneron”) is ongoing to evaluate BNT111 in combination with cemiplimab, BNT111 alone, or cemiplimab alone in anti-PD-1-/anti-PD-L1 refractory/relapsed, unresectable stage III or IV melanoma.In July 2024, BioNTech announced that the study met its primary efficacy outcome measure, demonstrating a statistically significant improvement in overall response rate (“ORR”) in patients treated with BNT111 in combination with the anti-PD-1 checkpoint inhibitor, cemiplimab, as compared to a historical control in this indication and treatment setting. The ORR in the cemiplimab monotherapy arm was in line with the historical control of anti-PD-L1 or anti-CTLA-4 treatments in this patient group. The treatment was well tolerated and the safety profile of BNT111 in combination with cemiplimab in this trial was consistent with previous clinical trials assessing BNT111 in combination with anti-PD-L1-containing treatments. The Phase 2 trial will continue as planned to further assess the secondary endpoints which were not mature at the time of the primary analysis.BioNTech plans to present data from this trial at an upcoming medical conference. BNT113 is a cancer vaccine candidate based on FixVac’s platform encoding for shared antigens associated with Human Papilloma Virus (“HPV16+”) head and neck cancer. A global, randomized Phase 2 clinical trial (NCT04534205) evaluating BNT113 in combination with pembrolizumab versus pembrolizumab monotherapy as a first-line treatment in patients with unresectable recurrent or metastatic HPV16+ head and neck squamous cell carcinoma expressing PD-L1 is ongoing. Data updates are expected to be presented at the 2024 Congress of the European Society of Medical Oncology (“ESMO”) taking place from September 13-17, 2024 in Barcelona, Spain.

Ottensmeier Autogene cevumeran (BNT122) is a uridine mRNA-lipoplex based cancer vaccine candidate for individualized neoantigen-specific immunotherapy (“iNeST”) being developed in collaboration with Genentech, Inc. (“Genentech”), a member of the Roche Group (“Roche”). Autogene cevumeran is being evaluated in ongoing Phase 2 trials in adjuvant resected pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (“PDAC”) (NCT05968326), first-line melanoma (NCT03815058) and adjuvant colorectal cancer (“CRC”) (NCT04486378). A Phase 2 clinical trial in an additional indication is planned.In June 2024, epidemiologic data were presented at the American Society of Clinical Oncology (“ASCO”) Annual Meeting, including data on post-operative circulating tumor DNA (“ctDNA”) prevalence and prognostic value in disease-free survival, from an observational study (NCT04813627) in patients with resected high-risk stage II/III CRC. These epidemiological and prognostic data are supportive of the ongoing interventional Phase 2 clinical trial (NCT04486378).Also in June 2024, at the 2024 European Society for Medical Oncology Gastrointestinal Cancers (“ESMO-GI”) Congress, immunogenicity data were presented from the biomarker cohort of the ongoing Phase 2 (NCT04486378) that enrolled patients irrespective of post-surgical ctDNA status. The data indicate that autogene cevumeran is highly immunogenic and induces de novo polyepitopic, ex vivo detectable T-cell responses in all evaluable patients with resected​ stage II (high risk) or III CRC after completion of adjuvant chemotherapy.​ Among patients included in the immunogenicity analysis, all (12/12) were disease-free at data cut off.Preliminary data from the ongoing Phase 2 clinical trial (NCT04486378) in stage II (high risk) and III ctDNA+ adjuvant CRC is expected in late 2025 or 2026. Next-Generation Immune Checkpoint Immunomodulator Programs BNT327/PM8002 is a bispecific antibody candidate combining PD-L1 checkpoint inhibition with VEGF-A neutralization and is being developed in collaboration with Biotheus Inc. (“Biotheus”). BNT327/PM8002 is currently being evaluated in multiple Phase 2 and Phase 3 clinical trials in China to assess the efficacy and safety of the candidate as monotherapy or in combination with chemotherapy in various indications.In June 2024, at the 2024 ASCO Annual Meeting, monotherapy data were presented from an ongoing Phase 1/2 clinical trial (NCT05918445) for cohorts of patients with advanced cervical cancer (“CC”), platinum-resistant recurrent ovarian cancer (“PROC”), and advanced non-small cell lung cancer (“NSCLC”). Data on 48 patients with advanced CC showed an ORR of 42.2% (52.4% in patients with PD-L1-positive tumors), a disease control rate (“DCR”) of 93.3%, and a median progression-free survival (“mPFS”) of 8.3 months. Data on 39 patients with PROC showed an ORR of 20.6%, a DCR of 67.7%, and a mPFS of 5.5 months.

Sheng BNT311/GEN1046 (acasunlimab) is a potential first-in-class bispecific antibody candidate combining PD-L1 checkpoint inhibition with 4-1BB costimulatory activation that is being developed for the treatment of solid tumors. A Phase 2, multi-center, randomized, open-label clinical trial (NCT05117242) of BNT311/GEN1046 (acasunlimab) as monotherapy and in combination with pembrolizumab is ongoing in patients with relapsed/refractory metastatic NSCLC and a tumor PD-L1 expression of tumor proportion score, or TPS, of ≥1% after treatment with standard of care therapy with an immune checkpoint inhibitor. The primary endpoint is ORR according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors, or RECIST v1.1. Secondary endpoints include duration of response (“DOR”), time to response (“TTR”), progression-free survival (“PFS”), overall survival “OS” and safety.Data from the ongoing Phase 2 trial (NCT05117242) evaluating BNT311/GEN1046 (acasunlimab) in combination with pembrolizumab in pretreated NSCLC patients were presented at the 2024 ASCO Annual Meeting. The results showed a 12-month OS rate of 69%, a median OS (“mOS”) of 17.5 months, and a 30% ORR (confirmed ORR 17%) at the time of data cut-off in patients treated with the combination of BNT311/GEN1046 (acasunlimab) and pembrolizumab every 6 weeks. Anti-tumor activity was observed in patients with tumor proportion score (“TPS”) of 1–49% and ≥50%, in patients with <6 months and ≥6 months of previous immune checkpoint inhibitor (“CPI”) treatment, and in patients with squamous and non-squamous histology. Adverse events were consistent with the safety profiles of the individual drugs and TRAEs were primarily Grade 1 and 2.Updated data from this ongoing trial is expected to be presented at the 2024 World Conference on Lung Cancer (“WCLC”) taking place from September 7-10, 2024 in San Diego, California, U.S. Abstract Title: Dosing Regimen for Acasunlimab (DuoBody-PD-L1x4-1BB) In Combination with Pembrolizumab Poster Presentation Date & Time: September 9, 2024, 18:30-20:00 PDT Presentation Number: 845Author: G.

Paz-Ares While the emerging clinical profile of BNT311/GEN1046 (acasunlimab) is encouraging, for reasons relating to portfolio strategy, BioNTech opted not to participate in the further development of the program, including a planned Phase 3 trial. BioNTech and Genmab A/S (“Genmab”) will continue their collaboration under the existing agreements which was expanded in 2022. ADC Programs BNT323/DB-1303 is an ADC candidate targeting Human Epidermal Growth Factor 2 (“HER2”) that is being developed in collaboration with Duality Biologics (Suzhou) Co. Ltd. (“DualityBio”). BNT323/DB-1303 is being evaluated in a Phase 1/2 clinical trial (NCT05150691) in patients with advanced/unresectable, recurrent or metastatic HER2-expressing solid tumors. A potentially registrational cohort with HER2-expressing (IHC3+, 2+, 1+ or ISH-positive) patients with advanced/recurrent endometrial carcinoma has completed enrollment. Data from this cohort are expected in 2025.A confirmatory Phase 3 trial (NCT06340568) in patients with advanced endometrial cancer is planned to start in 2024.A pivotal Phase 3 trial (NCT06018337) evaluating BNT323/DB-1303 in patients with Hormone Receptor-positive (“HR+”) and HER2-low metastatic breast cancer (“BC”) that have progressed on hormone therapy and/or cyclin-dependent kinase 4/6 (“CDK4/6”) inhibition is ongoing.Topline data from the ongoing Phase 3 trial in HR+ and HER2-low metastatic BC that have progressed on hormone therapy and/or CDK4/6 inhibition are expected as early as 2025. BNT324/DB-1311 is an ADC candidate targeting B7H3 that is being developed in collaboration with DualityBio. A first-in-human, open-label Phase 1/2a clinical trial (NCT05914116) evaluating BNT324/DB-1311 in patients with advanced solid tumors is ongoing.In June 2024, BioNTech and DualityBio announced that BNT324/DB-1311 was granted Fast Track designation by the U.S. FDA for the treatment of patients with advanced/unresectable or metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer who have progressed on or after standard systemic regimens.In July 2024, the U.S. FDA granted Orphan Drug designation to BNT324/DB-1311 for the treatment of patients with advanced or metastatic esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. BNT326/YL202 is an ADC candidate targeting HER3 that is being developed in collaboration with MediLink Therapeutics (Suzhou) Co., Ltd. (“MediLink”). A multicenter, international, open-label, first-in-human Phase 1 clinical trial (NCT05653752), sponsored by MediLink, evaluating BNT326/YL202 as a later-line treatment in patients with locally advanced or metastatic EGFR-mutated NSCLC or HR+ and HER2-negative BC is on partial clinical hold by the U.S. FDA, as announced on June 17, 2024. BioNTech and MediLink are working to address the U.S. FDA’s requirements and resolve the partial clinical hold.Preliminary data from this study were presented at the 2024 ASCO Annual Meeting. BNT326/YL202 demonstrated encouraging activity in heavily pretreated locally advanced/metastatic NSCLC and BC with an ORR of 42.3% (22 out of 52 evaluable patients) and a DCR of 94.2% (49/52), with responses seen from the first dose level at 0.5 mg/kg. The safety profile of BNT326/YL202 was consistent with its mechanism of action and dose-dependent. The most common TRAEs were due to hematologic toxicity and gastrointestinal disorders. 7.3% (4/55) of patients discontinued treatment due to TRAEs, and there were 3 treatment-related Grade 5 events (deaths) at higher doses. Further clinical development is expected to focus on dose levels below 4.0 mg/kg, where the safety profile was manageable and encouraging clinical activity was observed. Cell Therapy Programs BNT211 consists of two investigational medicinal products: a CAR-T cell product candidate targeting Claudin-6 (“CLDN6”)-positive solid tumors in combination with a CAR-T cell-amplifying RNA vaccine (“CARVac”) encoding CLDN6. A first-in-human, open-label, multi-center Phase 1 dose escalation and dose expansion basket trial (NCT04503278) evaluating CLDN6 CAR-T cells as monotherapy or in combination with CLDN6 CARVac in patients with CLDN6-positive relapsed or refractory solid tumors, including ovarian cancers and testicular germ cell tumors, is ongoing.A data update is expected to be presented at the 2024 ESMO Congress.
