**CARLSBAD, CA – March 5, 2026** - Lineage Cell Therapeutics, Inc. (NYSE American and TASE: LCTX), a clinical-stage biotechnology company developing novel allogeneic, or "off the shelf", cell therapies for serious medical conditions, today reported its fourth quarter and full year 2025 financial and operating results and will host a conference call today at 4:30 p.m. Eastern Time to discuss these results and to provide a business update.

"2025 was a very productive year for the Lineage team," stated Brian M. Culley, Lineage CEO. "Our mission is to pioneer the emerging field of allogeneic cell therapy outside of oncology by applying our proprietary cell manufacturing technology platform, AlloSCOPE (Allogeneic, Scalable, Consistent, Off-the-shelf, Pluripotent Cell Engineering), to the production and transplantation of differentiated cell types, which are intended to replace the cells which a patient has lost, or lost function of, due to various conditions. Throughout 2025, we made meaningful progress in strengthening our scientific, operational and strategic foundations, and reported notable events in support of our mission including:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Continued progress with the OpRegen cell therapy program, including achievement of the first of the $620 million of milestone payments available under our collaboration with Roche and Genentech; a milestone rooted in our manufacturing expertise and reflecting years of investment to optimize our in-house production processes.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Solidified our position as a leader in allogeneic cell process development by demonstrating success with our proprietary AlloSCOPE manufacturing platform, reporting current Good Manufacturing Practice (cGMP) production for each of two programs, from a master and working cell bank system which we expect, in its current form, should enable a production capability of millions of doses of a single-administration product, all from our in-house facility.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Entered a research collaboration with William Demant Invest A/S, intended to fund all currently planned preclinical development of our ReSonance program, demonstrating the ability of our technology platform to produce partnerable programs efficiently, rapidly, and economically.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Launched a new cell therapy research initiative, with our initial focus on addressing the issue of large-scale production of undifferentiated pluripotent cells, which if successful could be evaluated for the production of islet cells to support a potential treatment of Type 1 Diabetes.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Treated the first ever chronic spinal cord injury (SCI) patient in the DOSED (Delivery of Oligodendrocyte Progenitor Cells for Spinal Cord Injury: Evaluation of a Novel Device) clinical study, the third clinical study of OPC1, a study evaluating a potentially superior delivery system, designed to deliver our proprietary cells over several minutes and without the need for stopping patient ventilation during administration."

Mr. Culley continued, "2026 will be an exciting year as we advance our therapeutic candidates and pursue our long-term goal of creating a pipeline of similar cell-based assets, some of which we might choose to develop internally and some which we might seek to partner, but all based on our core technology and platform. Our priorities in 2026 will include achieving key clinical and financial milestones, advancing our manufacturing capability, and maintaining the organizational focus necessary to execute with consistency against these goals."

**Select Business Highlights**

-**RG6501 (OpRegen Cell Therapy)** 

oAchieved the first milestone available under worldwide collaboration with Roche and Genentech, based on manufacturing and clinical advancements related to the OpRegen cell therapy program.

oPositive RG6501 (OpRegen cell therapy) Phase 1/2a clinical study 36 month results featured at *Clinical Trials at the Summit (CTS) 2025*, suggest evidence of sustained gains in visual acuity and structural support of the retina.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;▪Positive long-term clinical outcomes reported following a single administration of OpRegen cell therapy.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Clinical data reported at 12-, 24-, and 36-months for Cohort 4 of the Phase 1/2a study (12 patients) continues to demonstrate a consistent and durable treatment effect, with OpRegen-treated eyes exhibiting mean best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) scores above baseline at each of these timepoints in these patients with less advanced disease.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Notably, five patients who received significant coverage of OpRegen cell therapy across their geographic atrophy (GA) lesion are demonstrating long-term outcomes consistent with meaningful disease stabilization and even improvement.

oOngoing execution of Lineage's contributions to its collaboration with Roche and Genentech. The ongoing Phase 2a GAlette Study is currently enrolling at 17 clinical sites in the U.S. and Israel.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;▪In addition to testing other surgical parameters, Genentech currently plans to evaluate proprietary surgical delivery devices that have potential advantages over available off-the-shelf devices in the Phase 2a GAlette Study.

oOngoing efforts to further support development of OpRegen cell therapy under a separate services agreement with Genentech, signed May 2024, including: (i) activities to support the ongoing Phase 1/2a study long term follow-up and the currently enrolling Phase 2a GAlette

------

Study; and (ii) additional technical training and materials related to our cell therapy technology platform to support commercial manufacturing strategies.

-**ReSonance (ANP1)** 

oAnnounced research collaboration with William Demant Invest A/S (WDI) to jointly advance preclinical development of ReSonance (ANP1) over a term of three years; up to $12 million of development costs to be contributed by WDI in a collaboration which is intended to cover planned preclinical development activities, including cell manufacturing, proof-of-concept studies, translational/functional models, delivery development, outcome measures, regulatory strategy, and market analysis.

-**Demonstrated AlloSCOPE Platform Manufacturing Capability** 

oSuccessfully completed a production run for two product candidates, each produced from a customized, two-tiered cGMP cell banking system, highlighting the application of the Lineage platform across multiple programs.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;▪This production process utilizes a genetically-stable master cell bank created from a single, well-characterized pluripotent cell line, to generate a working cell bank, which then provides the source material for a final cell-based product candidate.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;▪This demonstrated cGMP production process should enable the ability to produce millions of doses of a cost-effective, scalable and consistent supply of an allogeneic, cell-based product derived from a single initial cell line, that can be applied across multiple programs.

-**ILT1**

oLaunched new cell therapy research initiative, inverting the risk profile of traditional cell therapy development, focused on deploying the company's manufacturing capability to address the issue of large-scale production of undifferentiated pluripotent cells, with the initial goal of establishing a production modality that can support the entire production process through differentiation in a dynamic culturing system, which if successful could potentially solve a major hurdle to commercialization of islet cell therapy product candidates.

-**OPC1**

oFirst chronic SCI participant treated in the DOSED study.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;▪First treated participant was a neurologically complete SCI injury (American Spinal Injury Association Impairment Scale [AIS] grade A), with a single neurological level of injury (NLI) from levels T1 to T10, and the novel delivery system successfully administered a one-time injection of OPC1.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;▪No significant safety events were reported 180 days following treatment in the first chronic SCI participant.

oOpened second clinical site in the DOSED study, Rancho Research Institute, in conjunction with Rancho Los Amigos National Rehabilitation Center.

oLineage resubmitted its Clinical Trial (CLIN2) grant application to support the DOSED study to the California Institute for Regenerative Medicine (CIRM) in January 2026, and CIRM continues to review Lineage's application.

**Balance Sheet Highlights**

------

Cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities of $55.8 million as of December 31, 2025, together with the approximate $5.4 million in proceeds from warrant exercises in March 2026, is expected to support planned operations into Q2 2028.

**Fourth Quarter Operating Results**

Revenues: Revenue is generated primarily from collaboration revenues, royalties, and other revenues. Total revenues for the three months ended December 31, 2025 were approximately $6.6 million, a net increase of $3.7 million as compared to $2.9 million for the same period in 2024. The increase was primarily driven by higher collaboration revenue recognized under our worldwide collaboration and license agreement with Roche (the "Roche Agreement") following the achievement of the first milestone, along with the new research collaboration agreement with WDI.

Operating Expenses: Operating expenses are comprised of research and development ("R&D") expenses and general and administrative ("G&A") expenses. Total operating expenses for the three months ended December 31, 2025 were $13.2 million, an increase of $5.2 million as compared to $8.0 million for the same period in 2024.

R&D Expenses: R&D expenses for the three months ended December 31, 2025 were $8.2 million, an increase of $4.8 million as compared to $3.4 million for the same period in 2024. The net increase was primarily driven by $2.1 million for our OpRegen program expenses and $2.7 million for our preclinical and other undisclosed programs.

G&A Expenses: G&A expenses for the three months ended December 31, 2025 were approximately $4.8 million, an increase of $0.4 million as compared to $4.4 million for the same period in 2024. The net increase was primarily driven by personnel costs.

Loss from Operations: Loss from operations for the three months ended December 31, 2025 was $6.5 million, an increase of $1.4 million as compared to $5.1 million for the same period in 2024.

Other Income/(Expenses): Other income/(expenses) for the three months ended December 31, 2025 reflected other income of $2.2 million, compared to other income of approximately $1.9 million for the same period in 2024. The net increase was primarily driven by exchange rate fluctuations related to Lineage's international subsidiaries and no warrant-related financing transaction costs incurred as compared to the prior year's quarter, partially offset by the non-cash quarterly fair value remeasurement expense of the warrant liabilities.

Net Income/Loss Attributable to Lineage: The net income/loss attributable to Lineage for the three months ended December 31, 2025 was net income of $0.9 million, or $0.004 per share (basic and diluted), compared to a net loss of $3.3 million, or $0.02 per share (basic and diluted), for the same period in 2024.

**Full Year Operating Results**

Revenues: Revenue is generated primarily from collaboration revenues, royalties, and other revenues. Total revenues for the year ended December 31, 2025 were $14.6 million, a net increase of $5.1 million as compared to $9.5 million for the same period in 2024. The increase was primarily driven by higher collaboration revenue recognized under the Roche Agreement following the achievement of the first milestone, along with the new research collaboration agreement with WDI.

Operating Expenses: Operating expenses are comprised of R&D expenses and G&A expenses. Total operating expenses for the year ended December 31, 2025 were $51.2 million, an increase of $20.2 million

------

as compared to $31.0 million for the same period in 2024. The increase was primarily driven by $14.8 million expense recognized during the year for the loss on impairment for the intangible asset related to the VAC platform.

R&D Expenses: R&D expenses for the year ended December 31, 2025 were $17.7 million, an increase of approximately $5.2 million as compared to $12.5 million for the same period in 2024. The increase was primarily driven by $1.6 million for our OpRegen program, $0.7 million increase for our ANP1 program, $0.2 million for our OPC1 program and $2.8 million for our preclinical programs and other undisclosed programs.

G&A Expenses: G&A expenses for the year ended December 31, 2025 were $18.5 million, an increase of approximately $0.3 million as compared to $18.2 million for the same period in 2024. The net increase was primarily driven by $0.2 million in personnel costs and $0.1 million for services provided by third parties.

Loss from Operations: Loss from operations for the year ended December 31, 2025 was $36.6 million, an increase of $15.1 million as compared to $21.5 million for the same period in 2024.

Other Income/(Expenses): Other income (expenses) for the year ended December 31, 2025 reflected other expense of $32.0 million, compared to other income of $2.9 million for the same period in 2024. The net change of $34.9 million was largely attributable to the non-cash fair value remeasurement expense of the warrant liabilities of $37.9 million, primarily due to an increase in our share price as compared to the prior year period. This increase in expense was partially offset by exchange rate fluctuations related to Lineage's international subsidiaries and lower warrant-related transaction costs incurred as compared to the prior year in connection with the November 2024 financing.

Net Loss Attributable to Lineage: The net loss attributable to Lineage for the year ended December 31, 2025 was $63.5 million, or $0.28 per share (basic and diluted), compared to a net loss of $18.6 million, or $0.09 per share (basic and diluted), for 2024. The difference was primarily driven by the non-cash fair value remeasurement of the warrant liabilities and the loss on impairment expense related to a 2019 acquisition.

**About the AlloSCOPE™ (Allogeneic, Scalable, Consistent, Off-the-shelf, Pluripotent Cell Engineering) Platform**

The AlloSCOPE (Allogeneic, Scalable, Consistent, Off-the-shelf, Pluripotent Cell Engineering) platform highlights the key attributes of Lineage's in-house technology and describes a differentiation and production modality from which Lineage can manufacture millions of doses of an allogeneic, cell-based product derived from a single initial cell line, conferring consistent, cost-effective, and scalable cell-based production and which can be applied across multiple programs. From our proprietary AlloSCOPE platform, we successfully completed a current Good Manufacturing Practice ("cGMP") production run from a custom, two-tiered cell banking system, featuring a genetically-stable master cell bank (MCB) created from a single, well-characterized pluripotent cell line, which generated a working cell bank (WCB), which then provided the source material for two final cell-based product candidates.
