Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with the rules of the SEC. These rules generally attribute beneficial ownership of securities to persons who possess sole or shared voting power or investment power with respect to those securities and include ordinary shares that can be acquired within 60 days of March 15, 2025. The percentage ownership information shown in the table is based upon 65,897,071 ordinary shares outstanding as of March 15, 2025.
Except as otherwise indicated, all of the shares reflected in the table are ordinary shares or ADSs, and all persons listed below have sole voting and investment power with respect to the shares beneficially owned by them, subject to applicable community property laws. The information is not necessarily indicative of beneficial ownership for any other purpose. 
In computing the number of ordinary shares beneficially owned by a person and the percentage ownership of that person, we deemed outstanding ordinary shares subject to subscription rights held by that person that are immediately exercisable or exercisable within 60 days of March 15, 2025. We did not deem these shares outstanding, however, for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of any other person. Beneficial ownership representing less than 1% is denoted with an asterisk (*). The information in the table below is based on information known to us or ascertained by us from public filings made by the shareholders. 
Except as otherwise indicated in the table below, addresses of the members of the Board of Directors, members of our Executive Committee and named beneficial owners are in care of Galapagos NV, Generaal De Wittelaan L11 A3, 2800 Mechelen, Belgium.
