**Alumis Reports First Quarter 2026 Financial Results and <br>Highlights Recent Achievements**

*– Late-breaking oral presentation of Phase 3 envudeucitinib data in moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis (PsO) at the 2026 American Academy of Dermatology (AAD) Annual Meeting demonstrating early and robust improvements in skin clearance, quality of life, and symptoms –*

*– Data showed robust PASI responses by Week 16, with significant continued improvements by Week 24 in PASI 90 (68.0%, 62.1%) and PASI 100 (41.0%, 39.5%) –*

*– Data continue to underscore envudeucitinib's potential as a leading oral therapy for PsO; plans to submit NDA in 4Q 2026 remain on track –*

*– Potentially pivotal Phase 2b topline data for envudeucitinib in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) anticipated 3Q 2026 –* 

SOUTH SAN FRANCISCO, Calif., May 14, 2026 – Alumis Inc. (Nasdaq: ALMS), a late-stage biopharmaceutical company developing next-generation targeted therapies for patients with immune-mediated diseases, today reported financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2026, and highlighted recent achievements and upcoming milestones.

"Alumis delivered a focused and productive first quarter, building on the Phase 3 clinical validation of envudeucitinib in moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis and reinforcing the differentiated potential of maximal TYK2 inhibition," said Martin Babler, President and Chief Executive Officer of Alumis. "Late-breaking Phase 3 data at the 2026 American Academy of Dermatology Annual Meeting demonstrated leading skin-clearance outcomes and meaningful improvements in patient-reported quality-of-life measures, supporting a compelling emerging profile for physicians and patients, if approved, and further strengthening our confidence in envudeucitinib's potential to reshape the psoriasis treatment landscape."

Babler added, "We remain on track for our NDA submission in the fourth quarter of this year, as well as the potentially pivotal LUMUS Phase 2b topline readout in SLE in the third quarter. With continued progress across both indications, envudeucitinib is emerging as a potential 'pipeline in a pill', supporting expansion into additional immune-mediated diseases. We are evaluating further indications under a unified TYK2 franchise strategy and expect to share further updates later this year."

**First Quarter 2026 and Recent Highlights**

**Envudeucitinib: a next-generation, highly selective oral tyrosine kinase 2 (TYK2) inhibitor, in patients with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● Late - breaking oral presentation of Phase 3 ONWARD1 and ONWARD2 envudeucitinib data at the 2026 American Academy of Dermatology (AAD) Annual Meeting (link to presentation)

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;o Envudeucitinib achieved robust PASI responses by Week 16, with significant continued improvements by Week 24, including PASI 90 responses of 68.0% and 62.1% and PASI 100 responses of 41.0% and 39.5%

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;o Quality-of-life improvements and itch relief emerged ahead of PASI 90 skin clearance, highlighting envudeucitinib's early onset and broad clinical benefit

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;o Clear or almost clear scalp psoriasis, a high-impact, difficult-to-treat area, emerged as early as Week 4 in more than 30% of patients, and was observed in approximately three out of four patients by Week 24 <sup>[1](#footnote-2)</sup>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;o Envudeucitinib demonstrated a favorable safety and tolerability profile consistent with the Phase 2 program

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● Company management participated in a virtual key opinion leader (KOL) event following the AAD presentation featuring leading dermatology and psoriasis expert Dr. Andrew Blauvelt (link to the presentation and webcast replay: https://shorturl.at/A4Dh2)

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● Narrative review published in peer-reviewed *Dermatology and Therapy* highlights envudeucitinib as a next - generation, oral, allosteric TYK2 inhibitor with strong molecular properties and favorable clinical efficacy and safety in psoriasis. The review synthesizes preclinical and clinical evidence demonstrating potent, sustained TYK2 inhibition and reinforces its potential across psoriasis and other immune-mediated diseases.

**Lonigutamab Update**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● Alumis has completed its strategic review of the lonigutamab program and decided to explore strategic alternatives for this asset.

**Anticipated 2026 Milestones**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● **Envudeucitinib in Moderate-to-Severe Plaque Psoriasis** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;o Long-term data - ONWARD3 topline data and Phase 2, two-year safety data (2H 2026)

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;o NDA submission (4Q 2026)

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● **Envudeucitinib in SLE** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;o Potentially pivotal Phase 2b SLE topline data (3Q 2026)

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● **TYK2 Franchise** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;o Update on unified TYK2 franchise development strategy, including evaluation of additional indications (2Q 2026)

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● **Next clinical candidate (new target)** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;o Initiate Phase 1 trial (2H 2026)

<sup>1</sup> Based on patients with baseline ss-PGA ≥3.

**First Quarter 2026 Financial Results**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● As of March 31, 2026, Alumis had cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities of $569.5 million.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● Revenue included collaboration revenue of $1.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to license revenue of $17.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, related to the collaboration and licensing agreement with Kaken Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● Research and development expenses were $81.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $96.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The decrease was primarily driven by lower contract research and clinical trial costs following completion of enrollment and reporting of positive topline results for the pivotal Phase 3 ONWARD1 and ONWARD2 clinical trials of envudeucitinib in patients with PsO in January 2026, partially offset by an increase in personnel-related expenses.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● General and administrative expenses were $18.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $22.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The decrease was primarily attributable to transaction costs related to the merger with ACELYRIN, Inc. in the three months ended March 31, 2025, partially offset by an increase in personnel-related expenses.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● Net loss was $93.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $99.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025.

**Financial Guidance**

● Based on the Company's current operating plan, Alumis continues to anticipate that its existing cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities as of March 31, 2026 are expected to fund operating expenses and capital expenditure requirements into the fourth quarter of 2027.
