Business Development Updates

•
In September, the Company announced an exclusive licensing agreement for GE HealthCare to develop, manufacture, and commercialize Lantheus’ piflufolastat F 18 in Japan (PYLARIFY® in the U.S. market) for prostate cancer diagnostics and companion diagnostic use. Under the terms of the agreement, GE HealthCare paid an upfront license fee and will pay Lantheus for development milestones and tiered royalties based on product sales in Japan.
Radiopharmaceutical Pipeline Updates
•
In October, the Company announced the FDA established a Prescription Drug User Fee Act (PDUFA) target action date of March 29, 2026 for LNTH-2501 (Gallium-68 edotreotide), the Company’s diagnostic kit for the preparation of Ga 68 edotreotide Injection, indicated for use with PET imaging for localization of SSTR+ NETs in adult and pediatric patients.
•
In October, the Company announced the FDA has accepted its New Drug Application (NDA) for MK-6240, the Company’s F 18-labeled tau-targeted PET imaging agent. MK-6240 previously received Fast Track designation from the FDA for its potential to address an unmet medical need in Alzheimer’s disease diagnostics. The FDA has set a PDUFA target action date of August 13, 2026.
•
In August, the Company announced the FDA acceptance of its NDA for a new formulation of piflufolastat F 18 PSMA PET imaging agent.

The FDA has set a PDUFA target action date of March 6, 2026.

acquisition related expenses, purchase accounting fair value adjustments, and any one-time, non-recurring charges. These items are uncertain, depend on various factors, and could be material to results computed in accordance with GAAP. As a result, it is the Company’s view that a quantitative reconciliation of adjusted fully diluted EPS on a forward-looking basis is not available without unreasonable effort.
Conference Call and Webcast
As previously announced, the Company will host a conference call and webcast on Thursday, November 6, 2025, at 8:00 a.m. ET. To access the conference call or webcast, participants should register online at https://investor.lantheus.com/news-events/calendar-of-events.

Internet Posting of Information
The Company routinely posts information that may be important to investors in the “Investors” section of its website at www.lantheus.com. The Company encourages investors and potential investors to consult its website regularly for important information about the Company.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Company uses non-GAAP financial measures, such as adjusted net income and its line components; adjusted net income per share - fully diluted; adjusted operating income, and free cash flow. The Company’s management believes that the presentation of these measures provides useful information to investors. These measures may assist investors in evaluating the Company’s operations, period over period. However, these measures may exclude items that may be highly variable, difficult to predict and of a size that could have a substantial impact on the Company’s reported results of operations for a particular period. Management uses these and other non-GAAP measures internally for evaluation of the performance of the business, including the evaluation of results relative to employee performance compensation targets. Investors should consider these non-GAAP measures only as a supplement to, not as a substitute for or as superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.
