**CONTINEUM THERAPEUTICS REPORTS FIRST-QUARTER 2026 FINANCIAL RESULTS; AFFIRMS KEY CLINICAL DEVELOPMENT MILESTONES**

SAN DIEGO – May 5, 2026 – Contineum Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ: CTNM) (Contineum or the Company), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company pioneering differentiated therapies for the treatment of neuroscience, inflammation and immunology (NI&I) indications, today reported its first-quarter 2026 financial results and affirmed its key clinical development milestones.

"We're excited to have recently shared positive topline results from our chronic pain trial," said Carmine Stengone, CEO, Contineum Therapeutics. "We continue to steadily enroll PROPEL-IPF, a global Phase 2 trial evaluating PIPE-791 for the treatment of patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). With a projected cash runway that extends through mid-2029, which is approximately one year past the estimated completion of our IPF trial, we are maintaining a disciplined approach to capital allocation that prioritizes our lead clinical indication, while thoughtfully considering the advancement of other programs."

**Key Clinical Development Milestones** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• On April 30, 2026, the Company reported positive topline data from its exploratory Phase 1b trial of PIPE-791 for the non-opioid treatment of chronic osteoarthritis pain or chronic low back pain. The trial met its primary objective of assessing safety and tolerability, demonstrating an adverse event profile generally consistent with previous PIPE-791 clinical trials. In addition, patients treated with PIPE-791 generally demonstrated improvements from baseline in pain that were numerically greater than the placebo arm. Contineum believes these data support further evaluation and development of PIPE-791 for the potential treatment of chronic pain. More information on this trial can be found at <u>https://clinicaltrials.gov</u> (NCT06810245).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The Company initiated patient dosing in PROPEL-IPF, a global Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating PIPE-791 for the treatment of patients with IPF, in the first quarter of 2026. PROPEL-IPF is a 26-week, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial evaluating the efficacy, safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of once-daily, oral PIPE-791 in approximately 324 IPF patients. The primary efficacy endpoint is the change from baseline through week 26 in absolute forced vital capacity (FVC mL). More information on this trial can be found at <u>https://clinicaltrials.gov</u> (NCT07284459).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• In December 2024, Johnson & Johnson began recruiting an estimated 124 adult participants for a Phase 2 Moonlight-1 trial of PIPE-307/JNJ-89495120. Estimated trial completion is June 2026. This randomized, double-blind, multicenter, placebo-controlled, proof-of-concept trial is evaluating the efficacy, safety and tolerability of PIPE-307/JNJ-89495120 as monotherapy in adult participants with major depressive disorder (MDD). More information on this trial can be found at <u>https://clinicaltrials.gov</u> (NCT06785012).

**First-Quarter 2026 Financial Results**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities were $246.3 million as of March 31, 2026. Contineum believes its cash resources are sufficient to fund its planned operations through mid-2029.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Research and development expenses were $11.6 million, a 15 percent decrease from the first quarter of 2025. This decrease was primarily driven by a reduction in expenses related to the completion of the Company's PIPE-307 VISTA trial and lower costs related to the PIPE-791 PET trial, partially offset by increased expenses for the PIPE-791 IPF program and higher employee-related costs.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• General and administrative expenses were $5.3 million, a 20 percent increase from the first quarter of 2025. The increase was primarily driven by higher stock-based compensation and employee-related costs.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Net loss was $14.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to $16.0 million for the first quarter of 2025.
