**Pharming Group issues statement regarding the events surrounding Silicon Valley Bank**

**Leiden, the Netherlands, March 12, 2023:** Pharming Group N.V. ("Pharming" or "the Company")(Euronext Amsterdam: PHARM / Nasdaq: PHAR) is aware that the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") has been appointed receiver of Silicon Valley Bank ("SVB US") and that the Bank of England, barring any intervening events, intends to put Silicon Valley Bank UK Limited ("SVB UK") into insolvency.

Pharming has total cash and cash equivalents, together with restricted cash, of approximately US$209 million as of December 31, 2022. Pharming holds US$26 million in SVB US and US$19 million in SVB UK. Pharming's deposits with SVB US are largely uninsured and its deposits with SVB UK largely exceed the applicable protected limit.

Given Pharming's strong balance sheet and cash flows from its operations, the Company is confident that the closure of SVB US and insolvency of SVB UK will not materially impact Pharming's operating plans or convertible debt service obligations and other material cash requirements for the next twelve months and beyond.

As necessary, Pharming will actively work to recover its cash deposited with SVB US and SVB UK. However, at this time, Pharming does not know to what extent and the timing with which such recovery will be possible. Pharming continues to actively monitor the situation.
