## Exhibit 99.1

EXHIBIT 99.1

**Silence Therapeutics Highlights Recent Business Achievements and Reports Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2025 Financial Results**

*Topline results for Phase 2 SANRECO trial of divesiran, a first-in-class siRNA for polycythemia vera (PV), on-track for third quarter of 2026*

5 March 2026

LONDON, Silence Therapeutics plc, Nasdaq: SLN, a global clinical-stage company developing novel siRNA (short interfering RNA) therapies, today reported financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2025, and provided an update on recent business achievements.

"The past year was focused on clinical execution, demonstrated by the expedited enrollment in the Phase 2 SANRECO trial of divesiran in PV which is on-track for topline results in third quarter of 2026," said Iain Ross, Chairman and Interim Principal Executive Officer at Silence. "Divesiran is a first-in-class siRNA product candidate in PV with broad potential in blood disorders and this program is our highest priority. We believe we are well positioned today with excellent optionality and multiple near-term value drivers ahead."

**<u>Business Highlights</u>**

***Divesiran: First-in-class siRNA for PV***

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Accelerated timing for topline results in the Phase 2 SANRECO trial of divesiran, a first-in-class siRNA for PV; now anticipated in 3Q'26 (formerly 2H'26) due to faster than expected enrollment.

***Zerlasiran: Phase 3 ready program for cardiovascular disease due to high Lp(a)***

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Completed core Phase 3 readiness activities; program is well positioned for a potential third-party partner to initiate Phase 3 development.

***SLN312: Phase 1 siRNA with a competitive profile for dyslipidemia***

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•AstraZeneca shared results from an interim analysis of a Phase 1 randomized, single-blind, placebo-controlled trial of SLN312, an siRNA silencing ANGPTL3 discovered using Silence's mRNAi GOLD™ platform and developed by AstraZeneca, in 98 patients with dyslipidemia. Data highlights include:

oSLN312 demonstrated durable dose-dependent reductions in ANGPTL3, triglycerides and atherogenic lipoproteins after single and multiple doses.

oStrong durability profile observed supporting potential for infrequent dosing.

oSLN312 was well tolerated with no safety concerns identified.

oPhase 1 data presentations are planned for medical and research congresses in 2026.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•On March 4, 2026, AstraZeneca notified Silence that they will not pursue further development of SLN312 beyond Phase 1. Silence will re-gain exclusive rights globally to this clinical asset following Phase 1 and is evaluating plans for further development. AstraZeneca and Silence maintain a broader collaboration leveraging Silence's mRNAi GOLD™ platform for cardiovascular, cardiometabolic, renal and respiratory diseases.

***Discovery Pipeline*** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Generated promising preclinical data for two new mRNAi GOLD™ platform programs.

oSLN365, a potential first-in-class siRNA silencing GPR146, a novel mechanism-of-action for cholesterol management independent of LDL-C receptor function.

------

oSLN098, an siRNA silencing INHBE, a novel target for obesity supported by human genetics and strong pre-clinical data.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Advanced extra-hepatic cell targeting leveraging the Company's proprietary siRNA platform, generating promising preliminary results in several cell types.

***Anticipated 2026 Milestones***

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Topline results for Phase 2 SANRECO trial of divesiran in PV in third quarter of 2026.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Additional preclinical data for SLN365 (GPR146) in second quarter of 2026.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Additional preclinical data for SLN098 (INHBE) in second quarter of 2026.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Phase 1 data presentations for SLN312 at medical and research congresses in 2026.

***Corporate Updates***

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•On December 15, 2025, Iain Ross, Chairman of the Board of Directors, was announced as Interim Principal Executive Officer following the departure of the Company's former CEO; a search is underway for a new CEO.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•In December 2025, James Ede Golightly, a former Silence Non-Executive Director, was reappointed to the Board. Additionally, Rhonda Hellums, CFO of Silence, was appointed to the Board as an Executive Director.

**<u>Full Year 2025 Financial Results</u>**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•**Cash Position:** Cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments were $85.1 million as of December 31, 2025. This includes cash and cash equivalents of $11.3 million and short-term investments of $73.8 million.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•**Collaboration Revenue:** Collaboration revenue was $0.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $43.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The decrease for 2025 was primarily due to revenue associated with the Hansoh collaboration that concluded in 2024 and a $17.4 million decrease in revenue related to the AstraZeneca collaboration.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•**R&D Expenses:** Research and development (R&D) expenses were $67.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $67.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2024.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•**G&A Expenses:** General and administrative (G&A) expenses were $22.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $26.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The decrease for 2025 was primarily a result of a decrease in SEC reporting requirements and other cost-savings initiatives.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•**Net Loss:** Net loss was $88.6 million, or $0.63 basic and diluted net loss per share for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to a net loss of $45.3 million, or $0.33 basic and diluted net loss per share for the year ended December 31, 2024.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Total outstanding shares were 141,701,848 ordinary shares (including shares in the form of American Depositary Shares) as of December 31, 2025.

Myeloproliferative neoplasm characterized by the excessive production of red blood cells (RBCs) Elevated hematocrit (HCT) is a hallmark of the disease, indicating overproduction of RBCs Associated with JAK2 gain-of-function driver mutation in hematopoietic stem cells in over 90% of patients Serious, chronic disease associated with increased thrombotic and cardiovascular risks1-3 Rare disease with ~150,000 in the US and ~3.5m worldwide 4 Diagnosed typically in individuals 50-70 years of age Median survival ~20 years Polycythemia Vera (PV) is a Rare Blood Cancer with Significant Unmet Needs Treatment goal is to control HCT <45% to reduce CV and major thrombotic events 1.

People Living with PV Have Significant Unmet Needs Inconsistent HCT Control Patients with HCT between 45-50% are ~4x more likely to die from CV causes or have major thrombotic events than those <45%1 Most patients have uncontrolled HCT with tests ≥45%2 Iron Deficiency Most patients with PV are iron deficient due to depleted bone marrow iron levels3 Some treatments exacerbate disease-related symptoms by inducing iron deficiency3,4 Disease Burden Patients with elevated HCT often require frequent phlebotomies to manage condition 30-40% of PV patients who receive cytoreductive therapy have a suboptimal response and toxicity issues5 Patients have burdensome symptoms, including fatigue and concentration problems5 1.
