Conference Call to be Held at 8:00 a.m. ET Today

ImmunoGen, Inc. (Nasdaq: IMGN), a leader in the expanding field of antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) for the treatment of cancer, today reviewed recent progress in the business and reported financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2022.

“With approval expected on or before our November 28, 2022 PDUFA date, we have completed our preparations to launch mirvetuximab this month,” said Mark Enyedy, ImmunoGen’s President and Chief Executive Officer. “Our commercial and medical teams are in the field, our distribution network is in place, and our patient support infrastructure is ready to deliver mirvetuximab to ovarian cancer patients with platinum-resistant FRα-positive disease.”

Enyedy continued, “Top-line data from the ongoing MIRASOL study are expected in early 2023, and we advanced the broader mirvetuximab program with the initiation of the GLORIOSA and 0420 studies to further explore its potential in platinum-sensitive disease. Turning to pivekimab, our second pivotal program, we reported encouraging initial data from the CADENZA study in frontline BPDCN and look forward to presenting initial data from our triplet expansion cohorts in AML in an oral presentation at ASH. We are also progressing our earlier-stage portfolio and expect to share initial data for IMGN936 and to enroll the first patient in the IMGN151 trial before year-end. With an intense focus on execution, we are well positioned to transform ImmunoGen into a fully-integrated oncology company this year.”

RECENT PROGRESS

• Presented additional data from the mirvetuximab program at the 2022 European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO) Congress, the 2022 Annual Global Meeting of the International Gynecologic Cancer Society (IGCS), and the 23^rd Congress of the European Society of Gynaecological Oncology (ESGO)
• Advanced accrual in PICCOLO, a single-arm study of mirvetuximab monotherapy in folate receptor alpha (FRα)-high recurrent platinum-sensitive ovarian cancer.
• Initiated two combination studies for mirvetuximab in platinum-sensitive ovarian cancer: Trial 0420, a single-arm Phase 2 trial of mirvetuximab in combination with carboplatin followed by mirvetuximab continuation in FRα-low, medium, and high patients; and GLORIOSA, a randomized Phase 3 trial of mirvetuximab in combination with bevacizumab maintenance in FRα-high recurrent second-line platinum-sensitive ovarian cancer.
• Supported investigator-sponsored trials of mirvetuximab plus carboplatin in a single-arm study in the neoadjuvant setting and a randomized study in patients with recurrent platinum-sensitive ovarian cancer.
• Reported initial data from the pivotal Phase 2 CADENZA study of pivekimab sunirine (pivekimab) in frontline de novo blastic plasmacytoid dendritic cell neoplasm (BPDCN) and in BPDCN patients with a prior or concomitant hematologic malignancy (PCHM).
• Presented efficacy data for the pivekimab triplet with Vidaza^® (azacitidine) and Venclexta^® (venetoclax) in genetic sub-types of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) at the Society of Hematologic Oncology (SOHO) Annual Meeting.

• Report top-line data for MIRASOL in early 2023.
• Present efficacy data from the SORAYA trial by sequence of treatment at the Society of Gynecologic Oncology (SGO) 2023 Annual Meeting.

FINANCIAL RESULTS

Total revenues were $15.4 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2022 compared to $9.2 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2021. The increase was due to greater license and milestone fee revenue driven by fees recognized pursuant to license agreements with Lilly and Novartis and higher non-cash royalty revenue.

Operating expenses for the quarter ended September 30, 2022 were $92.8 million, compared with $43.4 million for the same quarter in 2021. Research and development expenses rose to $59.2 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2022 compared to $33.1 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2021, driven by increases in personnel and temporary staffing costs, contract services, and external manufacturing costs largely incurred in anticipation of a potential US launch of mirvetuximab, as well as greater clinical trial costs. Selling, general, and administrative expenses increased to $33.6 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2022 compared to $10.3 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2021, due primarily to building commercial capabilities, including the hiring of personnel, in preparation for a potential US launch of mirvetuximab.

Net loss for the third quarter of 2022 was $77.8 million, or $0.31 per basic and diluted share, compared to a net loss of $37.3 million, or $0.18 per basic and diluted share, for the third quarter of 2021. Weighted average shares outstanding increased to 253.5 million for the 2022 period from 204.8 million in the prior year.

ImmunoGen had $309.5 million in cash and cash equivalents as of September 30, 2022, compared with $478.8 million as of December 31, 2021. Cash used in operations was $169.6 million for the first nine months of 2022, compared with cash used in operations of $123.5 million for the same period in 2021. Capital expenditures were $1.1 million in each of the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021.

FINANCIAL GUIDANCE

ImmunoGen has updated its financial guidance for 2022 and now expects:

• revenues between $80 million and $90 million;
• operating expenses between $320 million and $330 million; and
• cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 2022 to be between $230 million and $240 million.

Revenue guidance does not reflect potential product sales from mirvetuximab.

The increase in operating expense guidance is largely attributable to faster than expected hiring, preparation for commercialization, and strong clinical trial startup and execution.

ImmunoGen expects that its current cash, combined with anticipated product and collaboration revenues, will fund operations into 2024.
