Amounts consist of royalties associated with the UT License Agreement. The contract assets related to the royalties are included in prepaid expense and other current assets in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Pursuant to the UT License Agreement, the Company receives a 10% royalty on net sales of Tyvaso DPI. In December 2023, the Company sold a 1% royalty on future net sales of Tyvaso DPI to a royalty purchaser, with the Company retaining a 9% royalty. In August 2021, the Company and UT entered into the CSA, pursuant to which the Company is responsible for manufacturing and supplying to UT, and UT is responsible for purchasing from the Company on a cost-plus basis. In addition, UT is responsible for supplying treprostinil at its expense in quantities necessary to enable the Company to manufacture Tyvaso DPI as required by the CSA.

The activities and deliverables under the CSA and UT License Agreement resulted in distinct performance obligations which include the: (1) R&D Services and License, (2) Next-Gen R&D Services, and (3) Manufacturing Services. The revenue recognized under the CSA for manufacturing services is comprised of the sale of product to UT, recognition of previously deferred revenue, as well as reimbursements from other agreements for individual performance obligations. The portion of revenue related to each deliverable included in UT CSA revenue (in thousands) is as follows:

Sale of product included revenue related to fully reimbursable costs associated with product sales and other miscellaneous charges of $1.5 million and $5.8 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, and none in 2025.

There have been various amendments to the CSA since inception. As amended, the term of the CSA continues until December 31, 2031 (unless earlier terminated) and is thereafter renewed automatically for additional, successive two-year terms unless (i) UT

provides notice to the Company at least 24 months in advance of such renewal that UT does not wish to renew the CSA or (ii) the Company provides notice to UT at least 48 months in advance of such renewal that the Company does not wish to renew the CSA. The Company and UT each have normal and customary termination rights, including termination for material breach that is not cured within a specific timeframe or in the event of liquidation, bankruptcy or insolvency of the other party.

During 2024, the Company also entered into additional agreements for individual performance obligations which are accounted for separately as they are distinct from Manufacturing Services and offered at a standalone selling price, for which we received revenue of $1.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and $0.3 million and $1.7 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively. No revenue was received for the three months ended September 30, 2025. Revenue is recognized at a point in time as services are rendered.

Also during 2024, the Company fully recognized the Next-Gen R&D Services performance obligation. The pre-production activities under the CSA, such as facility expansion services that were bundled services under the Manufacturing Services performance obligation were completed in 2024 and are being amortized over the CSA contractual term.

Under the terms of the UT License Agreement, UT has an option to develop additional dry powder inhalation therapies. In August 2025, UT exercised its right, which was memorialized in an amendment to the UT License Agreement (the "First Amendment"). Under the First Amendment, the Company will formulate an investigational molecule using its proprietary Technosphere® platform, and United Therapeutics will conduct preclinical and clinical development. Per the First Amendment, the Company received an upfront payment of $5.0 million in 2025 and is eligible to receive up to $35.0 million in development milestones, of which approximately $10.0 million is probable of being earned based on the current stage of development and achievement criteria. The remaining $30.0 million in development milestones is considered constrained due to the inherent uncertainty in the timing and likelihood of achieving the associated milestones. The Company is also eligible to receive 10% royalties on net sales of any resulting product. As of September 30, 2025, the initial upfront payment is included within deferred revenue - long term on the Company's condensed consolidated balance sheets and no revenue has been recognized.

As of September 30, 2025, deferred revenue from UT consisted of $57.2 million, of which $10.0 million was classified as current and $47.2 million was classified as long-term on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. As of December 31, 2024, deferred revenue consisted of $62.4 million, of which $12.3 million was classified as current and $50.1 million was classified as long-term on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. The deferred revenue balance included $52.2 million and $61.3 million of UT funded pre-production activities under the CSA, such as facility expansion services and other administrative services as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. The Company determined that the deferred revenue should be combined with the Manufacturing Services performance obligation and relates solely to a single partially satisfied performance obligation pursuant to the CSA which will be recognized as product is delivered over the CSA term based on the measurement of progress.

Thirona Collaboration Agreement — In June 2021, the Company and Thirona entered into a collaboration agreement to evaluate the therapeutic potential of Thirona’s compound for the treatment of fibrotic pulmonary diseases. If initial studies had proven promising, the Company would have had the rights to seek a full license to the compound for clinical development and commercialization. The parties performed their respective obligations and provided reasonable support for research, clinical development and regulatory strategy. The collaboration agreement was accounted for under ASC 808, Collaborative Agreements; however, no consideration was exchanged between the parties. The costs incurred by the Company were expensed as R&D in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. In September 2025, Thirona initiated a cessation of operations following recent clinical trial results. The Company does not anticipate additional work to be performed or expenses to be incurred related to this agreement.

Biomm Supply and Distribution Agreement — In May 2017, the Company and Biomm S.A. ("Biomm") entered into a supply and distribution agreement for the commercialization of Afrezza in Brazil. Under this agreement, Biomm was responsible for pursuing regulatory approvals of Afrezza in Brazil, including from the Agência Nacional de Vigilância Sanitária (“ANVISA”) and, with respect to pricing matters, from the Camara de Regulação de Mercado de Medicamentos (“CMED”), both of which were received. Biomm commenced product sales in January 2020. No additional shipments of product were made to Biomm since 2020.

Cipla License and Distribution Agreement — In May 2018, the Company and Cipla Ltd. (“Cipla”) entered into an exclusive agreement for the marketing and distribution of Afrezza in India and the Company received a $2.2 million nonrefundable license fee. Under the terms of the agreement, Cipla is responsible for obtaining regulatory approvals to distribute Afrezza in India and for all marketing and sales activities of Afrezza in India. The Company is responsible for supplying Afrezza to Cipla. The Company is entitled to an additional regulatory milestone payment, minimum purchase commitment revenue and royalties on Afrezza sales in India once cumulative gross sales have reached a specified threshold. In December 2024, the Central Drugs Standard Control Organisation ("CDSCO") in India approved Afrezza for adults and, accordingly, the Company was entitled to the regulatory milestone payment from Cipla totaling $1.1 million, which was recognized as revenue from collaborations and services in the year ended December 31, 2024. The Company expects to ship product in the fourth quarter of 2025.

The initial $2.2 million nonrefundable licensing fee was recorded in deferred revenue and is being recognized in net revenue – collaborations over 15 years, representing the estimated period to satisfy the performance obligation.

As of September 30, 2025, the deferred revenue balance for Cipla was $1.1 million, of which $0.1 million was classified as current and $1.0 million was classified as long term in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. As of December 31, 2024, the deferred revenue balance was $1.2 million, of which $0.1 million was classified as current and $1.1 million was classified as long term in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Amphastar — During the quarter ended December 31, 2024, the Company entered into a co-promotion agreement which provides the terms and conditions upon which the Company's sales force shall promote Baqsimi (glucagon) nasal powder to designated health care professionals where the Company currently promotes Afrezza. Amphastar is obligated to pay fixed quarterly payments to the Company through December 2025. Either party may terminate the agreement or suspend performance upon written notice to the other party at any time during the contract term. The co-promotion agreement may be renewed or extended only upon the mutual written agreement of both parties.

The Company identified a single performance obligation that the Company will satisfy over time. The total transaction price of $2.5 million is considered fixed consideration of which $0.5 million and $1.5 million was recognized as revenue from collaborations and services in our condensed consolidated statement of operations in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively. The remaining $0.5 million will be recognized based on the measurement of progress as the performance obligation is satisfied through December 2025.
