Your request rate has exceeded the SEC’s maximum allowable requests per second. Your access to SEC.gov will be limited for 10 minutes.

Current guidelines limit each user to a total of no more than 10 requests per second, regardless of the number of machines used to submit requests. To ensure that SEC.gov remains available to all users, we reserve the right to block IP addresses that submit excessive requests.

NEWARK,

Calif., May 5, 2026 – Protagonist Therapeutics (Nasdaq: PTGX) (“Protagonist” or “the Company”) today reported financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2026, and provided a corporate update.

“The first quarter of 2026 marked a series of landmark achievements for Protagonist, highlighted by the U.S. approval of ICOTYDE, FDA granting Priority Review for rusfertide, and advancement of our highly differentiated and fully-owned peptides PN-881 and PN-477,” said Dinesh V. Patel, Ph.D., the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer. “These accomplishments, together with the additional financial resources afforded by our rusfertide opt-out election and future milestones and royalty payments from ICOTYDE and rusfertide, position Protagonist for meaningful near-, medium and long-term value creation through rapid progression of clinical stage assets and further expansion into new internal discovery programs. In addition, we look forward to implementing an efficient capital return strategy at the appropriate time.”

First Quarter 2026 Recent Developments and Upcoming Milestones

Rusfertide

On March 2, Takeda and Protagonist announced that the U.S. FDA accepted the New Drug Application for rusfertide and granted Priority Review. The application is supported by data from the positive 32-week primary analysis and 52-week results from the Phase 3 global randomized VERIFY study, as well as four-year efficacy and safety data from the Phase 2 REVIVE study and long-term extension THRIVE study. The FDA set a PDUFA goal date in August 2026.

On April 28, Protagonist announced that it exercised its right to opt out of the U.S. profit and loss sharing arrangement under the terms of its collaboration agreement with Takeda for rusfertide. The opt-out election triggers a $200 million payment to Protagonist, with an additional $200 opt-out fee and a separate $75 million milestone for FDA approval of rusfertide. The opt-out election also increases downstream economics payable to Protagonist, including up to $775 million in sales milestone payments and tiered worldwide royalties ranging from 14% to 29%. At $1.5 billion in annual net sales, the weighted-average royalty rate is approximately 21%, with the 29% tier applying to annual sales above $1.5 billion.

ICOTYDE™

(icotrokina)

On March 18, Protagonist announced that Johnson & Johnson received U.S. Food and Drug Administration approval for ICOTYDE for the treatment of moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis in adults and pediatric patients 12 years of age and older who weigh at least 40 kg and are candidates for systemic therapy or phototherapy. The FDA approval triggered a $50 million milestone payment to Protagonist in the first quarter of 2026. Under the collaboration, Protagonist remains eligible to receive up to $580 million in potential additional regulatory and sales milestone payments, as well as tiered royalties ranging from 6% to 10% on global net sales with an approximate 7.25% weighted-average royalty rate at $4 billion in annual net sales and a 10% tier applying to the incremental annual sales above $4 billion. ICOTYDE is the first and only FDA-approved targeted oral peptide for moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis

On March 28, Protagonist announced presentation of new one-year Phase 3 ICOTYDE results at the 2026 American Academy of Dermatology Annual Meeting. Data from the Phase 3 ICONIC-ADVANCE 1 and 2 and ICONIC-LEAD studies further supported the potential of ICOTYDE as a differentiated oral therapy for patients with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis, demonstrating durable efficacy and a favorable safety profile in a once-daily pill.
