(“Perspective,” the “Company,” “we,” “us,” and “our”) (NYSE AMERICAN: CATX), a radiopharmaceutical development company pioneering advanced treatments for cancers throughout the body, today provided a business update and announced results for the quarter ended June 30, 2026. “The team at Perspective is highly energized as we continue to build on the significant clinical progress we're making across our pipeline, prepare for our first Phase 3 study, and advance our flagship Chicago manufacturing facility toward completion,” said Thijs Spoor, Perspective's CEO. “As precision oncology continues to evolve, long-term leadership will require differentiated science, integrated manufacturing, and the ability to reliably deliver these therapies at commercial scale. We are continuing to bring the platform that delivers.” **Recent Program Updates** We advanced our four-program 212Pb pipeline, expanded our manufacturing network and attracted strong leadership. - **Bamzireotide navoxetan (VMT-α-NET) in SSTR2-positive neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) and meningioma**: 76 NETs patients across four cohorts and one meningioma patient treated as of July 31. ASCO 2026 interim data were consistent with prior findings and showed continued deepening of response. Updated data on NETs patients will be presented at ESMO on October 23. By late 2026, all 46 Cohort 2 patients will have had the opportunity for at least 60 weeks of follow-up, which is expected to inform the Phase 3 study design.Preparing for a Phase 3 study evaluating a proposed cumulative 20 mCi (740 MBq) dose administered in up to four treatments every eight weeks. Additional dose cohorts could provide optionality and opportunity to further define VMT-α-NET’s therapeutic window. Phase 3 site activation targeted around year-end 2026, subject to regulatory feedback and protocol finalization. - **Lapemelanotide zapixetar (VMT01) in MC1R-positive melanoma**: 27 patients enrolled across multiple dose cohorts either as monotherapy or in combination with the immune checkpoint inhibitor nivolumab as of July 31. We are focused on a cumulative 9 mCi (333 MBq) dose administered in up to three treatments every eight weeks. Seven patients received this treatment regimen as a monotherapy, and six patients received this dose in combination with nivolumab.Data presented at ASCO 2026 showed two partial responses among seven patients treated with 3.0 mCi monotherapy; safety data from 27 patients showed treatment was generally well tolerated. Six nivolumab combination patients are expected to reach at least 24 weeks of follow-up by late 2026. - **PSV359 in FAP-α-positive solid tumors**: 17 patients treated across three dose cohorts as of July 31. Cohort 3 opened and closed during 2Q 2026. The next clinical update is planned in 2027. - **PSV594 in CCK2R-positive solid tumors**: Preclinical data and first-in-human biodistribution observations support continued pre-IND development of PSV594. **Manufacturing**: We expect the Chicago metro site to complete construction in early 2027, followed by the Los Angeles metro site in 2H 2027, expanding the network to four regional sites by the end of 2027. We believe we have sufficient capacity and isotope access to support ongoing studies and the planned VMT-α-NET Phase 3 study. **Corporate update**: In July 2026, we announced that Paul Lyne, Ph.D. was appointed as Chief Science Officer. **Second Quarter 2026 Financial Summary** **Cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments** as of June 30, 2026, were approximately $237 million as compared to approximately $145 million as of December 31, 2025. We believe our cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments are sufficient to fund our current planned clinical milestones and operational investments into late 2027. - **Research and development expenses** were $21.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $16.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025. - **General and administrative expenses** were $7.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $7.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025. - **Net loss** for the three months ended June 30, 2026, was $26.8 million, or $0.22 per basic and diluted share, compared to a net loss of $21.5 million, or $0.29 per basic and diluted share, for the same period in 2025. **About Perspective Therapeutics, Inc.** Perspective Therapeutics, Inc. is a radiopharmaceutical development company pioneering advanced treatments for cancers throughout the body. The Company has proprietary technology that utilizes the alpha-generating isotope 212Pb to deliver powerful radiation specifically to cancer cells via specialized targeting moieties. The Company is also developing complementary imaging techniques that incorporate the same targeting moieties, which provides the opportunity to personalize treatment and optimize patient outcomes. This "theranostic" approach enables visualization of the specific tumor and subsequent treatment, potentially improving efficacy and minimizing toxicity. The Company is advancing a portfolio of clinical-stage programs in the U.S., including VMT-α-NET (neuroendocrine tumors), VMT01 (melanoma), and PSV359 (solid tumors). The Company is expanding its regional finished drug product candidate supply network, enabled by its proprietary 224Ra/212Pb generator platform used to manufacture clinical drug product candidates, to support the delivery of patient-ready drug product candidates for clinical trials and, if approved, commercial operations.
