"We were pleased to recently present additional positive AMT-101 translational data at ECCO for our Phase 2 FILLMORE monotherapy trial in patients with chronic pouchitis," said Tahir Mahmood, Ph.D., chief executive officer and co-founder of AMT. "We remain focused on exploring a strategic partnership to advance AMT-101 for this important indication which has been granted Orphan Drug Designation by the FDA."

**Recent Business Highlights and Anticipated Milestones**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;◦ Presented additional Phase 2 FILLMORE trial translational data in patients with chronic pouchitis at the European Crohn's and Colitis Organisation (ECCO) '23 Congress

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;◦ U.S. Food and Drug Administration granted Orphan Drug Designation for AMT-101 for the treatment of patients with pouchitis, an indication with significant unmet medical need and no current FDA-approved products

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;◦ CASTRO combination trial with anti-TNFα in patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis who are partial or non-responders to anti-TNFα therapy; top-line data readout anticipated in 2023

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Second clinical asset AMT-126 (oral fusion of IL-22):

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;◦ Completed a Phase 1a clinical trial for AMT-126 in 2022

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;◦ Evaluating next steps for the program

**Financial Results for the Fourth Quarter and Full Year Ended December 31, 2022**

**Research and development (R&D) expenses.** Research and development expenses increased by $18.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to the year ended December 31, 2021. The overall increase was primarily driven by external costs related to the FILLMORE, LOMBARD and MARKET Phase 2 clinical trials and an increase in personnel-related expenses, including employee separation costs related to our strategic plan which was announced in May 2022 (Strategic Plan) and stock-based compensation expense.

**General and administrative (G&A) expenses**. General and administrative expenses increased by $8.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to the year ended December 31, 2021. The increase was primarily due to higher personnel-related expenses, mainly from stock-based compensation expense and employee separation costs related to our Strategic Plan.

**Net loss.** Net loss for the fourth quarter of 2022 was $22.6 million, compared to a net loss of $30.2 million for the same period in 2021. Net loss for the year ended December 31, 2022 was $126.3 million, compared to $100.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2021.

**Cash and cash equivalents**. As of December 31, 2022, cash and cash equivalents were $61.1 million compared to $159.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2021.

**About AMT-101**

AMT-101 is a novel GI-selective, oral fusion of IL-10 and AMT's proprietary carrier molecule, currently in development in Phase 2 clinical trials for chronic pouchitis and RA. AMT-101 is designed to cross the intestinal epithelial (IE) barrier with

------

limited entry into the bloodstream, thereby focusing IL-10 at the primary site of inflammation in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), along the intestinal tissue lamina propria, potentially avoiding the side effects observed with systemic administration.

**About Applied Molecular Transport Inc.**

AMT is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company developing novel oral biologic product candidates, by leveraging its technology platform to design and advance a multi-product pipeline. AMT is developing its oral biologic product candidates in patient-friendly oral dosage forms that are designed to either target local intestinal tissue or enter systemic circulation to precisely address the relevant pathophysiology of disease. AMT's proprietary technology platform allows it to exploit existing natural cellular trafficking pathways to facilitate the active transport of diverse therapeutic modalities across the IE barrier. Active transport is an efficient mechanism that uses the cell's own machinery to transport materials across the IE barrier.
