Armata Pharmaceuticals Announces Second Quarter 2025 Results and Provides Corporate Update

Entered into secured credit agreement with Innoviva for $15 million maturing in 2029

Announced positive topline results from the Phase 1b/2a diSArm trial for AP-SA02

LOS ANGELES, CA, August 12, 2025 - Armata Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NYSE American: ARMP) (“Armata” or the “Company”), a clinical-stage biotechnology company focused on the development of high-purity, pathogen-specific bacteriophage therapeutics for the treatment of antibiotic-resistant and difficult-to-treat bacterial infections, today announced financial results for its second quarter ended June 30, 2025, and provided a corporate update.

Second Quarter 2025 and Recent Developments:

On August 11, 2025, entered into a secured credit agreement with Innoviva Strategic Opportunities LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Innoviva, Inc., Armata’s largest shareholder, for a loan of $15.0 million that will mature on January 11, 2029
oProceeds from the new financing transaction will be used to continue to advance development of Armata’s lead Staphylococcus aureus (“S. aureus”) therapeutic phage candidate, AP-SA02, a novel intravenously administered multi-phage therapeutic for the treatment of complicated S. aureus bacteremia
On May 19, 2025, announced positive topline results from the Phase 1b/2a diSArm trial which evaluated AP-SA02
oStudy met all primary endpoints for safety, tolerability, and clinical response in the intent-to-treat population
oThe AP-SA02 arm significantly improved clinical outcomes and prevented relapse compared to best available antibiotic therapy
oNo treatment-related serious adverse events were observed with AP-SA02 administered intravenously every six hours for five days
oArmata plans to hold an end-of-Phase 2 Meeting with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) in the second half of this year to align on a superiority trial design that the Company intends to begin enrolling patients in a Phase 3 pivotal trial in 2026
Received an additional $4.65 million of non-dilutive funding pursuant to a previously announced U.S. Department of Defense award through the Medical Technology Enterprise Consortium (“MTEC”) and managed by the Naval Medical Research Command – Naval Advanced Medical Development with funding from the Defense Health Agency and Joint Warfighter Medical Research Program
oSupports diSArm study close-out activities, as well as the preparation and execution of an end-of-Phase 2 meeting with FDA
Further advanced bacteriophage science through presentations at:
o2025 Military Health System Research Symposium (MHSRS), held on August 6 in Kissimmee, FL
o26th Biennial Evergreen Phage Meeting, held on August 7 in Knoxville, TN

“We achieved another significant milestone during the second quarter with positive topline data from our Phase 1b/2a diSArm study of AP-SA02, our high-purity, multi-phage therapeutic candidate that we are developing as a treatment for complicated S. aureus bacteremia,” stated Dr. Deborah Birx, Chief Executive Officer of Armata. “Notably, these data are the first clear evidence in a randomized controlled trial of the effectiveness of phage in treating a serious systemic bacterial infection, with demonstrated efficacy regardless of antibiotic resistance patterns or site of infection. Findings from the diSArm study, including the favorable safety and tolerability profile of AP-SA02, will inform the design of a larger definitive efficacy study to demonstrate superiority of AP-SA02 in treating complicated S. aureus bacteremia, and will form the basis for an End of Phase 2 meeting with the FDA which the Company intends to hold later this year. Importantly, Armata’s planned superiority pivotal trial design will have the potential to change standard of care for a serious systemic pathogen that is responsible for significant morbidity and mortality in the United States. We are very grateful for the ongoing support of Innoviva and the U.S. Department of Defense for providing critical funding to enable us to continue to advance this promising program.”

“Together with previously announced promising trial results for our second clinical candidate, AP-PA02, a novel, inhaled multi-phage therapeutic for the treatment of chronic pulmonary Pseudomonas aeruginosa infections in people with cystic fibrosis and non-cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis, I continue to be very pleased with our progress. With two promising therapeutic candidates and a state-of-the-art manufacturing platform that can achieve the high purity necessary for clinical success, we are very well positioned to address areas of high unmet need while creating significant long-term value for our company,” Dr. Birx concluded.
