Organization and Basis of Presentation
Organization and Basis of Presentation	1. Organization and Basis of Presentation The Company MeiraGTx Holdings plc and subsidiaries (the “Company” or “Meira Holdings”), an exempted company incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands, is a vertically integrated, clinical-stage genetic medicines company with a broad pipeline of late-stage clinical programs, including Parkinson's disease, radiation-induced xerostomia and AIPL1-associated retinal dystrophy. MeiraGTx clinical programs use targeted local delivery of small doses of genetic medicines to treat both inherited and more common conditions with severe unmet need. The successful development of the clinical pipeline is supported by the Company’s internal end-to-end manufacturing capabilities. The Company has two viral vector production facilities for good manufacturing practices (“GMP”), internal plasmid production for GMP, as well as an in-house Quality Control hub for stability and release, all fit for IND through commercial supply. In addition, the Company has developed a proprietary manufacturing platform with leading yield and quality aspects and commercial readiness. The Company’s core capabilities in viral vector and capsid optimization allow increased potency, decreased dose and significantly reduced cost of goods for its genetic medicines. The Company has developed a transformative gene regulation platform using bespoke synthetic riboswitch technology invented in-house that allows for the precise, dose-responsive expression of any transgene under the control of oral small molecules. The Company is focusing the riboswitch platform on in vivo delivery of biologic therapeutics such as the metabolic peptides GLP-1, GIP, glucagon, amylin, PYY and leptin via oral small molecules, as well as cell therapy for oncology and autoimmune diseases, and long-term intractable pain. The Company has developed unique comprehensive technology capabilities to apply genetic medicine to more common diseases, increasing efficacy, addressing novel targets, and expanding access in some of the largest disease areas where the unmet need remains high.

Basis of Presentation The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). Any reference in these notes to applicable guidance is meant to refer to the authoritative United States generally accepted accounting principles as found in the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) and Accounting Standards Updates (“ASU”) of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”). Interim Financial Statements The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of management, the condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) necessary in order to make the condensed consolidated financial statements not misleading. Operating results for the three-month period ended March 31, 2025 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2025. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2024 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 (the “Form 10-K”).

In addition, development activities, clinical and preclinical testing, and commercialization of the Company’s product candidates will require significant additional financing. The Company’s accumulated deficit at March 31, 2025 totaled $742.0 million, and management expects to incur substantial losses in future periods. The success of the Company is subject to certain risks and uncertainties, including, among others: uncertainty of product development; competition in the Company’s field of use; uncertainty of capital availability; uncertainty in the Company’s ability to enter into agreements and consummate transactions with collaborative partners; expanding and protecting the Company’s intellectual property portfolio; dependence on third parties; and dependence on key personnel. For the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company used $36.8 million in cash flows from operations and there are no assurances that the Company will generate positive cash flows in the future. Additionally, there are no assurances that the Company will be successful in obtaining an adequate level of financing for the development and commercialization of its product candidates. As of March 31, 2025, the Company had cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash in the amount of $68.6 million, which consisted of depository and money market accounts held at large international banks. The Company estimates that its cash and cash equivalents on-hand, tax incentive receivable and accounts receivable – related party at March 31, 2025, together with the proceeds from the anticipated closing of the strategic collaboration with Hologen Limited, will be sufficient to cover its expenses for at least the next twelve months from the date of issuance of these condensed consolidated financial statements. Risks and Uncertainties The Company operates in an industry that is subject to intense competition, government regulation and rapid technological change. The Company’s operations are subject to significant risk and uncertainties including financial, operational, technological, regulatory and other risks, including the potential risk of business failure. The Company’s capital resources and operations to date have been funded primarily with the proceeds from the Collaboration Agreement, Asset Purchase Agreement and private and public equity offerings, as well as the proceeds from the debt financing described in Note 10. In the future, the Company may seek to raise additional capital through equity offerings, debt financings, marketing and distribution arrangements and other collaborations, strategic alliances and licensing arrangements or other sources to enable it to complete the development and potential commercialization of its product candidates.
