Explanatory notes to the condensed consolidated interim financial statements
1.    General Information
Molecular Partners AG ("Company") and its subsidiary (collectively "Molecular Partners" or "Group") is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company pioneering designed ankyrin repeat proteins (DARPin) candidates to treat serious diseases, with a current focus on oncology and virology. The Company was founded on November 22, 2004, and is domiciled at Wagistrasse 14, 8952 Schlieren, Canton of Zurich, Switzerland. It is subject to the provisions of the articles of association and to article 620 et seq. of the Swiss Code of Obligations, which describe the legal requirements for limited companies (“Aktiengesellschaften”).
Molecular Partners Inc. is a wholly owned subsidiary of Molecular Partners AG. Molecular Partners Inc. was incorporated in the United States in the State of Delaware on October 8, 2018. Molecular Partners Inc. is based in Cambridge, Massachusetts.
The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2025 were approved for issuance by the Audit and Finance Committee on May 12, 2025.
The Company’s shares are listed on the SIX Swiss Exchange (Ticker: MOLN) since November 5, 2014 and on the Nasdaq Global Select Market (Ticker: MOLN) since June 16, 2021.
2.    Basis of Preparation
These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting and should be read in conjunction with the Group's last annual consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended December 31, 2024. They do not include all the information required for a complete set of consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS® Accounting Standards ("IFRS") as issued by the IASB. However, selected explanatory notes are included to explain events and transactions that are significant to gain an understanding of the changes in the Group's financial position and performance since the last annual consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended December 31, 2024.
The accounting policies set forth in the notes to those annual consolidated financial statements have been consistently applied to all periods presented.
The condensed consolidated interim financial statements are presented in thousands of Swiss Francs (TCHF), unless stated otherwise.
The business is not subject to any seasonality. Revenues largely depend on the underlying alliance contracts and the achievement of agreed milestones, while expenses are largely affected by the phase of the respective projects, particularly with regard to external research and development expenditures.
Due to rounding, the numbers presented in the financial statements might not precisely equal the accompanying notes.
3.    New or Revised IFRS Standards and Interpretations
A number of new or amended standards became applicable for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2025. These standards are not expected to have any significant impact on the Group’s accounting policies and did not require any retrospective adjustments.
4.    Accounting estimates and judgments
The condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. In preparing these condensed consolidated interim financial statements, management
5


made judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
5.    Other explanatory notes
5.1    Revenue and other group-wide disclosures
On January 5, 2024, the Group announced it entered into a co-development agreement with Orano Med to co-develop 212Pb-based Radio Darpin Therapies (RDT). Under the terms of the co-development agreement, Molecular Partner’s previously disclosed RDT target DLL3 (delta-like ligand 3) will be included in the collaboration with Orano Med. Both companies agree to share the cost of preclinical and clinical development with additional commitments to supply their respective materials. The cost sharing in the first quarter of 2025 resulted in a reimbursement of expenses from OranoMed of TCHF830 reported under research and development expenses compared to a reimbursement by MP to OranoMed of TCHF 355 in the first quarter of 2024.
On December 14, 2021, the Group entered into a License and Collaboration Agreement with Novartis to develop DARPin-conjugated radioligand therapeutic candidates for oncology. The collaboration activities ended in the third quarter of 2024. During the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Group recognized no revenue in relation to this agreement (three months ended March 31, 2024: TCHF 2,738).
Revenues in the table below are attributable to individual countries and are based on the location of the Group’s collaboration partners.

5.4    Share-based compensation
As of March 31, 2025, a total of 2,247,930 PSUs and 345,798 Restricted Stock Units ("RSUs") were outstanding, of which none were vested (as of December 31, 2024 a total of 2,247,267 PSUs and 345,798 RSUs were outstanding).
The changes in the number of share-based awards (RSUs and PSUs) outstanding during the three month period ended March 31, 2025, is as follows:

Exchange results primarily represent unrealized foreign exchange results on the cash and short-term time deposit balances held in USD.
5.6    Income taxes
The Group has in recent years reported operating losses, with the exception of the year ended December 31, 2022, that resulted in a tax loss carry-forward in Switzerland of TCHF 195,126 as of December 31, 2024. No deferred tax assets have been recognized for these tax loss carry forwards, because it is not probable that such loss carry forwards can be utilized in the foreseeable future. In addition, no deferred tax positions were recognized on other deductible temporary differences (e.g. pension liabilities under IAS 19) due to the significant tax loss carry forwards.

Weighted average number of shares used in computing basic and diluted earnings per share36,874,641 32,868,901 
5.8    Other Comprehensive result
In order to recognize remeasurements of the net defined benefit obligation in the period in which they arise, the Group utilizes its independent actuaries to update the calculation of the defined benefit obligation and plan assets at each reporting date. The primary component of the remeasurement as of and for the three month period ended March 31, 2025, relates to an increase in the assets held by our main pension provider.
5.9    Related parties
The Group did not enter into any related party transactions in the interim periods presented.
5.10    Events after the balance sheet date
No events occurred between the balance sheet date and the date on which these condensed consolidated interim financial statements were approved for issuance by the Audit and Finance Committee that would require adjustment to these condensed consolidated interim financial statements or disclosure under this section.
