Interim Report for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2026 Highlights
Epcoritamab approved in Europe (as TEPKINLY®) and Japan (as EPKINLY®) in combination with R² for the treatment of adult patients with relapsed or refractory FL
Initiation of two new Phase 3 trials for petosemtamab in first- and second-line CRC
Genmab revenue increased 22% compared to the first nine months of 2025, to $3,238 million
"The third quarter of 2026 reinforced the breadth of our late-stage portfolio. TEPKINLY plus R2 became the first bispecific-based therapy approved in Europe for second-line FL, extending epcoritamab's reach as a core therapy across B-cell malignancies. We also broadened our petosemtamab program with new Phase 3 studies in CRC, underscoring our confidence in this asset beyond head and neck cancer. As anticipated, we are now in our data-rich fourth quarter, where we have delivered pivotal readouts across our three late-stage assets, epcoritamab, Rina-S® (rinatabart sesutecan) and petosemtamab, supporting multiple regulatory submissions and potential launches in 2027," said Jan van de Winkel, Ph.D., Chief Executive Officer of Genmab.
Financial Performance First Nine Months of 2026Revenue was $3,238 million for the first nine months of 2026 compared to $2,662 million for the first nine months of 2025. The increase of $576 million, or 22%, was primarily driven by higher DARZALEX® and Kesimpta® royalties and higher EPKINLY® net product sales.
Royalty revenue was $2,699 million in the first nine months of 2026 compared to $2,219 million in the first nine months of 2025, an increase of $480 million, or 22%. The increase in royalties was driven by higher net sales of DARZALEX and Kesimpta.
Net sales of DARZALEX by J&J were $12,410 million in the first nine months of 2026 compared to
$10,448 million in the first nine months of 2025, an increase of $1,962 million or 19%.
Global net sales of EPKINLY/TEPKINLY® were $491 million in the first nine months of 2026 compared to $333 million in the first nine months of 2025, an increase of $158 million or 47%.
Cost of product sales were $234 million for the first nine months of 2026 compared to $157 million for the first nine months of 2025. The increase of $77 million, or 49%, was primarily driven by the profit-sharing amounts payable to AbbVie related to EPKINLY sales.
Acquisition and integration related charges related to the integration of Merus were $87 million in the first nine months of 2026.
Amortization of acquired intangible assets was $35 million for the first nine months of 2026 compared to
$9 million for the first nine months of 2025. The increase of $26 million, was primarily driven by the amortization of the Merus technology platform.
Operating expenses were $2,018 million in the first nine months of 2026 compared to $1,498 million in the first nine months of 2025, an increase of $520 million or 35%.
Adjusted operating expenses, which exclude Acquisition and integration related charges and Amortization of acquired intangible assets, were $1,896 million for the first nine months of 2026 compared to $1,489 million for the first nine months of 2025. The increase of $407 million, or 27%, was primarily driven by investment in our product pipeline, including the advancement of Rina-S and petosemtamab, and our global commercialization capabilities in preparation for their anticipated launches.
Operating profit was $986 million in the first nine months of 2026 compared to $1,007 million in the first nine months of 2025. Adjusted operating profit, which excludes Acquisition and integration related charges and Amortization of acquired intangible assets, was $1,108 million in the first nine months of 2026 compared to $1,016 million in the first nine months of 2025.
Non-IFRS Financial MeasuresOur Adjusted operating expenses and adjusted operating profit excludes acquisition and integration related charges and amortization of acquired intangible assets. These charges were recognized in current as well as prior periods and will likely reoccur in future periods. These items are excluded from operating expenses and
operating profit because the Company believes they neither relate to the ordinary course of the Company's business nor reflect the Company's underlying business performance.
Non-IFRS information is intended to portray the results of our baseline performance, supplement or enhance management's, analysts' and investors' overall understanding of our underlying financial performance and facilitate comparisons among current, past and future periods. This information is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the related financial measures prepared in accordance with IFRS and may not be the same as or comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies due to possible differences in method and in the items being adjusted. We encourage investors to review our financial statements and publicly-filed reports in their entirety and not to rely on any single financial measure.

Genmab is maintaining its 2026 financial guidance published August 6, 2026.
RevenueGenmab expects its 2026 revenue to be in the range of $4.33 - 4.53 billion. Genmab's projected revenue growth for 2026 is driven by higher royalties, net product sales and collaboration revenue.
Royalty growth relates mainly to DARZALEX and Kesimpta net sales growth. Net product sales/Collaboration revenue growth is driven by strong performance for EPKINLY.
Genmab's projected revenue for 2026 primarily consists of DARZALEX royalties of approximately $2.83 billion at the midpoint. Such royalties are based on estimated DARZALEX 2026 net sales of $16.50 - 16.90 billion.
DARZALEX royalties are partly offset by Genmab's share of J&J's royalty payments to Halozyme Therapeutics, Inc. (Halozyme) in connection with subcutaneous (SC) net sales as well as royalty reduction in countries and territories where there is no Genmab patent coverage.
The remainder of Genmab's revenue consists primarily of royalties from TEPEZZA®, RYBREVANT®, TECVAYLI®, TALVEY®, TEPKINLY and BIZENGRI®, net product sales of EPKINLY and collaboration revenue from Tivdak, reimbursement revenue and milestones.
Adjusted Operating ExpensesGenmab is maintaining its 2026 adjusted operating expenses to be in the range of $2.81 - 2.95 billion. The increase in adjusted operating expenses is primarily related to investments in late-stage programs and launch readiness in key markets.
Adjusted Operating ProfitGenmab is maintaining its 2026 adjusted operating profit to be in the range of $1.07 - 1.39 billion.
Outlook: Risks and AssumptionsIn addition to factors already mentioned, the estimates above are subject to change due to numerous reasons, including but not limited to: the achievement of certain milestones associated with Genmab's collaboration agreements; the timing and variation of development activities (including activities carried out by Genmab's collaboration partners) and related income and costs; DARZALEX, DARZALEX FASPRO, Kesimpta, TEPEZZA, RYBREVANT, TECVAYLI, TALVEY, TEPKINLY and BIZENGRI net sales and royalties paid to Genmab; changing rates of inflation; and currency exchange rates (the 2026 guidance assumes a USD/DKK exchange rate of 6.2). The financial guidance assumes that no significant new agreements are entered into during 2026
that could materially affect the results. Refer to the section "Significant Risks and Uncertainties" in this interim report for matters that may cause Genmab's actual results to differ materially from 2026 Guidance.
The factors discussed above, as well as other factors that are currently unforeseeable, may result in further material adverse impacts on Genmab's business and financial performance, including unfavorable impacts on the sales of Tivdak and EPKINLY/TEPKINLY, and on the net sales of DARZALEX, Kesimpta, TEPEZZA, RYBREVANT, TECVAYLI, TALVEY and BIZENGRI by Genmab's collaboration partners and on Genmab's royalties, collaboration revenue, reimbursement revenue and milestone revenue therefrom.
PRODUCT PIPELINE AND TECHNOLOGY PROGRESS NINE MONTHS OF 2026At the end of the first nine months of 2026, Genmab's proprietary pipeline, where we are responsible for at least 50% of development, consisted of multiple antibody products in active clinical development from early- to late-stage development, including our late-stage programs Rina-S and petosemtamab. Our approved medicines are EPKINLY/TEPKINLY, which Genmab is co-developing and co-commercializing in the U.S. and Japan in collaboration with AbbVie and Tivdak, which Genmab is co-developing globally and co-promoting in the U.S. in collaboration with Pfizer Inc.

Clinical data to date for petosemtamab has demonstrated meaningful anti tumor activity in both 1L and later line HNSCC settings. The FDA has granted FTD in recurrent/metastatic HNSCC and BTD for both 1L PD-L1 positive and 2L+ recurrent/metastatic HNSCC. The program includes four Phase 3 LiGeR trials: in first-line PD-L1+ r/m HNSCC (LiGeR-HN1; NCT06525220); in 2L/3L r/m HNSCC (LiGeR-HN2; NCT06496178), in first-line RAS/BRAF wild-type, unresectable or metastatic, left-sided CRC (LiGeR-CRC1; NCT07702032); and in second-line RAS/BRAF wild-type recurrent, unresectable or metastatic CRC (LiGeR-CRC2; NCT07775287). An ongoing Phase 1/2 trial evaluates petosemtamab across advanced solid tumors (NCT03526835). In November 2025, Merus announced that they had entered a global collaboration and license agreement with Halozyme to develop a SC formulation of petosemtamab.

SIGNIFICANT RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIESAs a biotech company, Genmab faces a number of risks and uncertainties. These are common for the industry and relate to operations, intellectual property, research and development, commercialization, and financial activities.
For further information about risks and uncertainties that Genmab faces, refer to the 2025 Annual Report filed with the Nasdaq Copenhagen and the Form 20-F filed with the U.S. SEC, both of which were filed in February 2026. At the date of this interim report, there have been no significant changes to Genmab's overall risk profile since the publication of these reports. See Genmab's Form 20-F for a detailed summary of risks related to our collaborations.
FINANCIAL REVIEWThe interim report is prepared on a consolidated basis for Genmab A/S (parent company) and its subsidiaries. The symbol "$" is used throughout this interim report to refer to the U.S. dollar. The Genmab consolidated Group is referenced herein as "Genmab" or the "Company."
On December 12, 2025, Genmab closed the acquisition of Merus, including its late-stage breakthrough therapy asset petosemtamab. In order to finance the acquisition, Genmab borrowed $5.5 billion and utilized cash on hand. Genmab's financial results for the first nine months of 2026 reflect the impact of these transactions.
RevenueGenmab's revenue was $3,238 million for the first nine months of 2026 compared to $2,662 million for the first nine months of 2025. The increase of $576 million, or 22%, was primarily driven by higher DARZALEX and Kesimpta royalties achieved under our collaborations with J&J and Novartis, respectively, and increased EPKINLY net product sales. This increase was partly offset by $35 million of reduced milestone revenue achieved under our collaborations, primarily AbbVie and J&J.

Royalty revenue amounted to $2,699 million in the first nine months of 2026 compared to $2,219 million in the first nine months of 2025. The increase of $480 million, or 22%, was primarily driven by higher DARZALEX and Kesimpta royalties achieved under our collaborations with J&J and Novartis, respectively. The table below summarizes Genmab's royalty revenue by product.

J&J's net sales of DARZALEX were $12,410 million in the first nine months of 2026 compared to $10,448 million in the first nine months of 2025. The increase of $1,962 million, or 19%, was driven by market share gains and market growth in all regions. Royalty revenue on net sales of DARZALEX was $2,057 million in the first nine months of 2026 compared to $1,744 million in the first nine months of 2025, an increase of $313 million, or 18%. The percentage increase in royalties is lower than the percentage increase in the underlying net sales primarily due to Genmab's Halozyme royalty reductions in connection with the increase in SC product net sales and royalty reductions on net sales in countries and territories where there is no Genmab patent
coverage. Under our license agreement with Janssen for DARZALEX, for purposes of calculating royalties due to Genmab, DARZALEX net sales for non-U.S. dollar denominated currencies are translated to U.S. dollar at a specified annual Currency Hedge Rate.
Novartis' net sales of Kesimpta were $4,072 million in the first nine months of 2026 compared to $3,198 million in the first nine months of 2025. The increase of $874 million, or 27%, was primarily driven by increased demand and strong access. Royalty revenue on net sales of Kesimpta was $408 million in the first nine months of 2026 compared to $320 million in the first nine months of 2025, an increase of $88 million, or 28%.
Amgen's net sales of TEPEZZA were $1,592 million in the first nine months of 2026 compared to $1,446 million in the first nine months of 2025, an increase of $146 million, or 10%. Royalty revenue on net sales of TEPEZZA was $93 million in the first nine months of 2026 compared to $75 million in the first nine months of 2025, an increase of $18 million, or 24%. The percentage increase in royalties is higher than the percentage increase in underlying net sales primarily due to the timing of adjustments recognized during the respective periods.
Other royalties consist of royalties from net sales of RYBREVANT, TECVAYLI, TALVEY, TEPKINLY and BIZENGRI. These royalties were not material for the first nine months of 2026 or 2025.
Royalty revenue fluctuations from period to period are driven by the level of product net sales, foreign currency exchange rate movements and more specifically to DARZALEX, the contractual arrangement related to annual Currency Hedge Rate, Genmab's share of J&J's royalty payments to Halozyme in connection with SC product net sales and the level of royalty reductions on net sales in countries and territories where there is no patent protection.
Net Product SalesGlobal net product sales include sales of EPKINLY in the U.S. and Japan and Tivdak in Japan and Europe.
EPKINLY/TEPKINLY
Global net sales of EPKINLY/TEPKINLY were $491 million in the first nine months of 2026 compared to $333 million in the first nine months of 2025, an increase of $158 million or 47%, driven by strong growth in both 3L+ DLBCL and 3L+ FL, as well as 2L FL, which was approved in the U.S. in November 2025. Net product sales of EPKINLY in the U.S. and Japan recorded by Genmab were $381 million in the first nine months of 2026 compared to $272 million in the first nine months of 2025.

Tivdak
Global net product sales of Tivdak were $131 million in the first nine months of 2026 compared to $120 million in the first nine months of 2025, an increase of $11 million or 9%. Net product sales of Tivdak in Japan and Europe recorded by Genmab were $29 million in the first nine months of 2026 compared to $8 million in the first nine months of 2025. Tivdak was approved in Japan in May 2025 and became available for prescribing in Europe starting in September 2025.
Genmab records 50% of gross profit from net sales of Tivdak by Pfizer in the U.S. Net sales of Tivdak in the
U.S. were $102 million in the first nine months of 2026 compared to $112 million in the first nine months of 2025, a decrease of $10 million or 9%.
Reimbursement RevenueReimbursement revenue, mainly comprised of the reimbursement of certain research and development costs related to the development work under Genmab's collaboration agreements, amounted to $35 million in the nine months of 2026 compared to $43 million in the first nine months of 2025. The decrease of $8 million, or 19%,
was driven primarily by the acasunlimab program, partly offset by reimbursement revenue recognized related to the AbbVie and Gilead agreements.
Milestone RevenueMilestone revenue was $31 million in the first nine months of 2026 compared to $66 million in the first nine months of 2025, a decrease of $35 million, or 53%. Milestone revenue in the first nine months of 2026 was primarily driven by $28 million of milestones received from collaboration partners acquired as part of the Merus acquisition compared to milestones achieved under our collaborations with AbbVie for $30 million, J&J for $20 million and Novo Nordisk for $13 million in the first nine months of 2025.
Milestone revenue may fluctuate significantly from period to period due to both the timing of achievements and the varying amount of each individual milestone under our license and collaboration agreements.
Collaboration RevenueCollaboration revenue, which primarily reflects 50% of gross profit from net sales of Tivdak in the U.S. by Pfizer, was $53 million in the first nine months of 2026 compared to $54 million in the first nine months of 2025, a decrease of $1 million, or 2%. The decrease was primarily driven by lower Tivdak net sales, partially offset by Genmab's 50% share of a $10 million milestone received by Pfizer following regulatory approval of Tivdak in China during the second quarter of 2026.
Key Developments to Revenue - Third Quarter of 2026Genmab's revenue was $1,187 million for the third quarter of 2026 compared to $1,022 million for the third quarter of 2025. The increase of $165 million, or 16%, was primarily driven by higher DARZALEX and Kesimpta royalties achieved under our collaborations with J&J and Novartis, respectively, and increased EPKINLY net product sales. These increases were partly offset by decreased milestones received from collaboration partners.
RoyaltiesRoyalty revenue on net sales of DARZALEX was $751 million in the third quarter of 2026 compared to $656 million in the third quarter of 2025, an increase of $95 million, or 14%.

Interest and Other Financial Income is comprised of interest income on cash and marketable securities and other financial gains. The decrease of $15 million for the first nine months of 2026 compared to the first nine months of 2025, was primarily driven by a $49 million decrease in interest income on marketable securities due to the liquidation of all marketable securities to contribute to the funding of the Merus acquisition completed in December 2025. This decrease was partially offset by an increase of $23 million due to a modification gain related to the Term B Loans Amended Credit Agreement entered into in June 2026 and other financial gains related to the term loans.
Refer to Financial Statement Note 8 in this interim report for further details about borrowings.
Interest and Amortization Expense on BorrowingsThe increase of $324 million for the first nine months of 2026 compared to the first nine months of 2025, was due to $256 million of interest expense and $68 million of amortization of fees associated with the debt issued in December 2025 in connection with the financing of the Merus acquisition as well as the Term B Loans Amended Credit Agreement in June 2026. There was no interest expense or amortization of fees on borrowings for the first nine months of 2025 as Genmab did not have any borrowings prior to December 2025.
Refer to Financial Statement Note 8 in this interim report for further details about borrowings.
Gain on Marketable Securities, NetGain on marketable securities, net, which includes the impact of foreign exchange rate movements, decreased
$63 million in the first nine months of 2026 compared to the first nine months of 2025. There were no gains or losses on marketable securities for the first nine months of 2026 due to the liquidation of all marketable securities to contribute to the funding of the Merus acquisition in December 2025.
Foreign Exchange Rate Loss/Gain, NetForeign exchange rate loss, net, was $10 million in the first nine months of 2026 compared to foreign exchange rate gain, net of $7 million in the first nine months of 2025. The decrease was primarily driven by foreign exchange rate movements impacting Genmab's EUR and DKK denominated assets and liabilities. The EUR and DKK weakened against the USD in the first nine months of 2026 compared to strengthening against the USD in the first nine months of 2025.
Key Developments to Net Financial Items - Third Quarter of 2026 Interest and Other Financial IncomeInterest and Other Financial Income is comprised of interest income on cash and marketable securities and
other financial gains. The decrease of $7 million for the third quarter of 2026 compared to the third quarter of 2025, was primarily driven by the decrease in interest income on marketable securities due to the liquidation of all marketable securities to contribute to the funding of the Merus acquisition completed in December 2025.
Refer to Financial Statement Note 8 in this interim report for further details about borrowings.
Interest and Amortization Expense on BorrowingsThe increase of $107 million for the third quarter of 2026 compared to the third quarter of 2025, was due to $82 million of interest expense and $25 million of amortization of fees associated with the debt issued in December 2025 in connection with the financing of the Merus acquisition as well as the Term B Loans Amended Credit Agreement in June 2026. There was no interest expense or amortization of fees on borrowings for the third quarter of 2025 as Genmab did not have any borrowings prior to December 2025.
Refer to Financial Statement Note 8 in this interim report for further details about borrowings.
Gain on Marketable Securities, NetGain on marketable securities, net, which includes the impact of foreign exchange rate movements, decreased
$6 million in the third quarter of 2026 compared to the third quarter of 2025. There were no gains or losses on marketable securities for the third quarter of 2026 due to the liquidation of all marketable securities to contribute to the funding of the Merus acquisition in December 2025.
Foreign Exchange Rate Loss/Gain, NetForeign exchange rate gain, net, was $4 million in the third quarter of 2026 compared to foreign exchange rate loss, net of $10 million in the third quarter of 2025. The increase was primarily driven by reduced foreign currency exposure on Genmab's foreign denominated assets and liabilities in the third quarter of 2026 compared to the third quarter of 2025, partly offset by negative foreign exchange rate movements impacting Genmab's foreign denominated assets and liabilities.
The third quarter result included reductions of $13 million in foreign exchange gains and $17 million in foreign exchange losses, presented within financial income and financial expenses, respectively, consistent with their year-to-date classification.
Corporate TaxCorporate tax expense for the first nine months of 2026 was $25 million compared to $217 million for the first nine months of 2025. The decrease in corporate tax expense is the result of Genmab's lower net profit before tax and decrease in the estimated annual effective tax rate in the first nine months ended 2026 to 3.4%, compared to 18.9% in the first nine months of 2025. The lower estimated annual effective tax rate was primarily attributable to the Merus integration that allows for the partial recognition of previously unrecognized tax benefits. Accordingly, the estimated annual effective tax rate for the first nine months ended 2026 is not indicative of the Company's expected annual effective tax rate in future periods. The annual effective tax rate may experience further volatility from the statutory rate as Merus integration continues.
Key Developments to Corporate Tax - Third Quarter of 2026Corporate tax expense for the third quarter of 2026 was $12 million compared to $81 million for the third quarter of 2025. The decrease in corporate tax expense is the result of Genmab's lower net profit before tax and decrease in the estimated annual effective tax rate to 3.4% in the third quarter of 2026 compared to 18.9% in the third quarter of 2025. The lower estimated annual effective tax rate was primarily attributable to the Merus integration that allows for the partial recognition of previously unrecognized tax benefits. Accordingly, the estimated annual effective tax rate for the third quarter of 2026 is not indicative of the Company's expected annual effective tax rate in future periods. The annual effective tax rate may experience further volatility from the statutory rate as Merus integration continues.
Net ProfitNet profit for the first nine months of 2026 was $698 million compared to $932 million in the first nine months of 2025. The decrease was driven by the items described above. Net profit for the third quarter of 2026 was $342 million compared to $401 million in the third quarter of 2025. The decrease was driven by the items described above.

Net cash provided by operating activities is primarily related to our operating profit, changes in operating assets and liabilities, reversal of net financial items, adjustments related to non-cash transactions, interest received and paid and corporate taxes paid. Net cash provided by operating activities was $574 million for the first nine months of 2026. This was primarily driven by Genmab's operating profit generated during the period of $986 million, adjustments for non-cash transactions of $233 million, and interest received of $42 million. These increases were partly offset by $354 million of unfavorable changes in working capital, interest paid of $231 million, primarily related to borrowings, and taxes paid of $97 million. Net cash provided by operating activities was $885 million for the first nine months of 2025. This was primarily driven by Genmab's operating profit generated during the period of $1,007 million, adjustments for non-cash transactions of $143 million, and interest received of $84 million. These increases were partly offset by taxes paid of $317 million and unfavorable working capital changes of $28 million. The $311 million decrease in net cash provided by operating activities in the first nine months of 2026 compared to the first nine months of 2025 is primarily driven by higher working capital outflows and interest payments, partly offset by lower corporate taxes paid.
Net cash used in investing activities primarily reflects differences between the proceeds received from the sale and maturity of our investments and amounts invested, and the cash paid for investments in tangible and intangible assets. The $55 million decrease in net cash used in investing activities was primarily driven by the absence of marketable securities activity during the first nine months of 2026 following the liquidation of all marketable securities to contribute to the funding of the Merus acquisition completed in December 2025, compared to net marketable securities purchased of $26 million in the first nine months of 2025, lower investments in intangible and tangible assets of $23 million, as well as distributions from our fund investments of
$8 million during the first nine months of 2026 compared to the first nine months of 2025.
Net cash used in financing activities is primarily related to the repayments of borrowings, purchase of treasury shares, exercise of warrants, lease payments, and payment of withholding taxes on behalf of employees on net settled Restricted Stock Units (RSUs). The $37 million decrease in net cash used in financing activities between the periods was primarily driven by $334 million of higher cash paid for the purchase of treasury shares during the first nine months of 2025 compared to the first nine months of 2026 due to the timing of share repurchases, partially offset by $288 million of cash principal repayments on borrowings during the first nine months of 2026 compared to none in the first nine months of 2025 as Genmab did not have any borrowings prior to December 2025.
Balance SheetAs of September 30, 2026, total assets were $12,936 million compared to $12,873 million on December 31, 2025. The increase of $63 million was primarily driven by an increase in cash and cash equivalents, receivables and other current assets and right-of-use assets, partly offset by a decrease in other intangible assets. Cash and cash equivalents increased by $145 million due to the operating profit generated during the period, partly offset by working capital movements, repayments of principal and interest related to borrowings and corporate taxes paid. Receivables and other current assets increased $129 million due to higher DARZALEX and Kesimpta royalties achieved under our collaborations with J&J and Novartis, driven by higher net sales in the third quarter of 2026 as compared to the fourth quarter of 2025, as well as higher trade receivables resulting from increased EPKINLY sales during the same period. Right-of-use assets increased $58 million, primarily related to the commencement of a lease for a manufacturing facility in the U.S. These increases were partly offset by a decrease of $281 million related to other intangible assets due to negative foreign exchange rate impacts from the weakening of the EUR against the USD on our EUR denominated intangible assets.
As of September 30, 2026, total liabilities were $6,603 million compared to $7,026 million on December 31, 2025. The decrease in total liabilities of $423 million was primarily driven by a decrease in current other payables, non-current and current borrowings and taxes payable, partly offset by an increase in non-current and current lease liabilities. The decrease in current other payables of $137 million, was primarily driven by higher accruals recorded at year-end 2025 related to accrued termination costs associated with the discontinuance of the acasunlimab and other programs during the fourth quarter of 2025, accrued compensation and bonuses and accrued withholding tax on Merus related option payments paid in the first nine months of 2026. Non-current and current borrowings decreased $282 million, primarily driven by principal repayments on term loans A and B, as well as a decrease in corporate tax payable of $43 million. These decreases were partly offset by an increase in non-current and current lease liabilities of $54 million related to the commencement of a lease for a manufacturing facility in the U.S.
Shareholders' equity as of September 30, 2026, was $6,333 million compared to $5,847 million on December 31, 2025. The increase of $486 million, or 8%, was primarily driven by Genmab's net profit for the period and share-based compensation expenses, partly offset by negative foreign exchange rate impacts affecting the translation of our subsidiaries into USD, mainly the EUR based subsidiaries as a result of the weakening of the EUR against the USD and the purchase of treasury shares.
EmployeesEmployees comprise individuals who are employed by Genmab and excludes contractors and consultants. As of September 30, 2026, the total number of employees was 3,244 compared to 2,681 as of September 30,
2025. The increase was primarily driven by the continued investment and expansion of our R&D product portfolio and global commercialization capabilities, primarily related to Rina-S and petosemtamab. Also contributing to the increase in employees was the acquisition of Merus, which occurred during the fourth quarter of 2025.

Genmab is involved in pending legal proceedings arising out of the normal conduct of its business, the most significant of which are described below. These matters involve highly complex issues which are often subject to substantial uncertainties and, therefore, the probability of a loss, if any, being sustained and/or an estimate of the amount of any loss is difficult to ascertain. In cases that have been settled or adjudicated, or where quantifiable fines and penalties have been assessed and which, in each case, are not subject to appeal, or where a loss is probable and we are able to make a reasonable estimate of the loss, Genmab records the loss absorbed or makes a provision for its best estimate of the expected loss. Management has assessed the claims below on that basis and no provisions have been recorded.
Chugai Patent Infringement ComplaintIn 2024, Chugai filed a lawsuit in the Tokyo District Court in Japan against AbbVie's and Genmab's Japanese subsidiaries asserting that their activities related to EPKINLY (epcoritamab) in Japan infringe two Japanese patents held by Chugai and claiming damages and injunctive relief. In September 2025, Chugai filed two further lawsuits in the same court, against the same parties and with similar assertions, based on two newly granted Japanese patents held by Chugai which are similar to the patents from the original lawsuit.
Genmab and AbbVie believe that all four of the patents are invalid and/or not infringed and intend to vigorously defend the claims.
AbbVie Rina-S Trade Secret ComplaintDuring the first quarter of 2025, AbbVie filed a complaint in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Washington (Seattle) naming Genmab A/S; ProfoundBio U.S. Co.; ProfoundBio (Suzhou) Co., Ltd.; and former AbbVie employees as defendants. AbbVie alleges that the defendants have misappropriated AbbVie's alleged trade secrets relating to the use of disaccharides to improve the hydrophilicity of drug-linkers in ADCs in connection with Rina-S and other ADC pipeline products of ProfoundBio. AbbVie is seeking damages and broad injunctive relief. AbbVie is not asserting or enforcing any patent rights against the defendants, and to Genmab's knowledge, AbbVie has not pursued any development of products incorporating their alleged trade secrets.
During the fourth quarter of 2025, AbbVie filed a complaint with the U.S. International Trade Commission (ITC) under Section 337 of the Tariff Act against ProfoundBio US Co.; ProfoundBio (Suzhou) Co., Ltd.; Genmab A/S; Genmab B.V.; and Genmab US, Inc., seeking to exclude certain antibody drug conjugate products from importation into the United States. The ITC complaint was based on allegations substantially similar to those asserted in the Washington district court action. During the second quarter of 2026, AbbVie withdrew its ITC complaint and filed an unopposed motion to terminate the investigation and in July 2026, the ITC issued a Final Determination which ended the investigation. AbbVie has now resumed its case in the district court which had been stayed during the ITC investigation.
Genmab categorically refutes these allegations and will vigorously defend the company against AbbVie's claims.

These interim financial statements of the Genmab Group (Genmab or the Company) have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 (Interim Financial Reporting) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and in accordance with IAS 34 as endorsed by the European Union (EU) and additional Danish disclosure requirements for interim reports of listed companies. The interim report has not been audited or reviewed by Genmab's external auditors.
The interim report has been prepared using the same accounting policies as outlined in Section 1 - Basis of Presentation in the financial statements in the Genmab 2025 Annual Report (Annual Report), except as noted below. A number of amended standards became applicable for the current reporting period. There was no impact to Genmab's financial statements as a result of adopting these amended standards. These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Annual Report.
(In all accompanying tables, amounts of U.S. dollars are expressed in millions, except per share amounts, unless otherwise noted).
Derivative Financial InstrumentsThe Company is exposed to certain risks relating to its ongoing financial arrangements. The risk managed using derivative instruments is to reduce variability in interest cash flows on its floating-rate debt. Interest rate swaps are entered into to manage interest rate risk associated with the Company's floating-rate debt. The use of financial derivatives is governed by the Company's policies approved by the Board of Directors, which provide written principles on the use of financial derivatives consistent with the Company's risk management strategy.
As a matter of policy, Genmab does not use highly leveraged derivative instruments, nor does Genmab use financial instruments for speculative purposes.
IFRS 9 "Financial Instruments" requires entities to recognize all derivative instruments as either assets or liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value. The accounting for changes in the fair value (i.e., gains or losses) of a derivative instrument depends on whether it has been designated and qualifies as part of a hedging relationship and, further, on the type of hedging relationship.
The derivatives are designated as cash flow hedges and qualify for hedge accounting treatment. Changes in the fair value of derivative hedging instruments are initially recognized in Other Comprehensive Income ("OCI") to the extent that the hedge is effective, and accumulated in Other reserves (net of taxes), a component of equity. Amounts accumulated in equity are subsequently reclassified to net profit in the period(s) in which the hedged item affects net profit, and are presented in the same line item in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income as the underlying hedged item (i.e., in "interest expense on borrowings" when the hedged transactions are interest cash flows associated with floating-rate debt).To the extent that the hedge is ineffective, changes in fair value are recognized in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income within Financial Income/Financial Expense.
Hedge effectiveness is determined at the inception of the hedge relationship and through periodic prospective effectiveness assessments to ensure that an economic relationship exists between the hedged item and hedging instrument at inception of and throughout the hedged term.
The hedge ratio for each designation will be established by comparing the quantity of the hedging instrument and the quantity of the hedged item to determine their relative weighting. For all of the Company's existing hedge relationships the hedge ratio has been determined as 1:1. Designated hedges are expected to be effective and therefore the impact of ineffectiveness on profit and loss is not expected to be material.
Hedge accounting is discontinued prospectively when the hedging instrument expires or is sold, terminated, exercised or no longer qualifies for hedge accounting. When hedge accounting is discontinued, any gain or loss
recognized in Other Comprehensive Income at that time remains in equity and is recognized in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income when the hedged transaction is ultimately recognized in profit or loss.
If it becomes probable that a forecasted transaction will not occur, previously deferred gains and losses related to those forecasted transactions would be recognized in profit or loss in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income in the current period.
Genmab's designated derivative contracts consist of interest rate swap agreements, which effectively modify the Company's exposure to interest rate risk by converting a portion of the Company's floating-rate debt to a fixed-rate basis (for interest rate swap arrangements) for approximately two years, thus reducing the impact of interest-rate changes on future interest expense. These agreements involve the receipt of floating-rate amounts in exchange for fixed-rate interest payments without an exchange of the underlying notional amount.
Information about Geographical AreasGenmab is managed and operated as one business unit, which is reflected in the organizational structure and internal reporting. Resources are allocated and performance is assessed on a consolidated basis. No separate lines of business or separate business entities have been identified with respect to any licensed products, product candidates, product sales or geographical markets. Refer to Note 2.2 in the Annual Report for further details.
ReclassificationsBeginning in the third quarter of 2026, Genmab presents Amortization of acquired intangible assets as a separate line item in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income to provide greater transparency regarding these expenses. Comparative amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, $3 million and $9 million, respectively, were reclassified from Research and development expenses to Amortization of acquired intangible assets. These reclassifications had no effect on operating profit, net profit or earnings per share.
Note 2 - Acquisitions MerusDuring the fourth quarter of 2025, Genmab completed the acquisition of Merus, a clinical-stage biotechnology company developing petosemtamab, for $97 per share in an all-cash transaction representing a transaction value of approximately $8.0 billion. The transaction was accounted for as an asset acquisition, as substantially all of the fair value of the acquired gross assets was concentrated in a single identifiable asset, petosemtamab.
Refer to Note 5.5 of the 2025 Annual Report for further details regarding the acquisition and the related accounting.

*Excludes Genmab's Net product sales
**Other consists of royalties from net sales of RYBREVANT, TECVAYLI, TALVEY, TEPKINLY and BIZENGRI as well as milestones from collaboration partners
Net Product SalesGenmab recognized net product sales of $410 million during the first nine months of 2026 compared to $280 million in the first nine months of 2025. The increase in net products sales was primarily driven by sales of EPKINLY in the U.S. and Japan of $381 million in the first nine months of 2026 compared to $272 million in the first nine months of 2025.
Contract LiabilitiesGenmab has contract liabilities primarily associated with the AbbVie Agreement and Gilead Agreement (assumed through the acquisition of Merus in the fourth quarter of 2025). As part of the continued evaluation of these contract liabilities during the first nine months of 2026, Genmab's classification of contract liabilities reflects the current estimate of research and development activities as of September 30, 2026. Contract liabilities, primarily related to AbbVie and Gilead, have been recognized as reimbursement revenue in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income as the performance obligations have been satisfied. Reimbursement revenue recognized related to the AbbVie and Gilead agreements was $18 million in the first nine months of 2026. Reimbursement revenue recognized in the first nine months of 2025 was immaterial.
Refer to Note 2.1 in the Annual Report for further details regarding revenue.

The decrease in the gross carrying value of other intangible assets during the first nine months of 2026 was primarily driven by negative foreign exchange rate movements resulting from the weakening of the EUR against the USD, mainly related to petosemtamab (acquired IPR&D) and the technology platform acquired as part of the Merus acquisition completed in December 2025.
Amortization expense was $37 million for the first nine months of 2026 and $11 million for the first nine months of 2025.
For the first nine months of 2026, $35 million was recorded in Amortization of acquired intangible assets in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income. Of the $35 million of amortization, $30 million
related to technology platforms and $5 million related to commercialized intangible assets, acquired through the Merus and ProfoundBio acquisitions. The remaining $2 million was recorded in Research and development expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income.
In the first nine months of 2025, $9 million was recorded in Amortization of acquired intangible assets in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income, which entirely related to the technology platform acquired through the ProfoundBio acquisition. The remaining $2 million was recorded in Research and development expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income.
GoodwillThe carrying amount of goodwill, which relates to the acquisition of ProfoundBio during the second quarter of 2024, was $355 million as of both September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025.
Note 5 - Financial InstrumentsThe table below shows the fair value measurements by level for Genmab's financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss:

Derivative financial instruments consists exclusively of interest rate swaps and are based on quotes from the market makers that derive fair values from market data and are classified as Level 2. The non-current portion of
$5 million and the current portion of $11 million are recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Balances sheets in Receivables & other non-current assets and Receivables & other current assets, respectively. Refer to Note 1 and Note 9 in this interim report for further details regarding Genmab's derivative financial instruments.
Other InvestmentsOther investments primarily consist of investments in certain strategic investment funds. Genmab's share of the fair value of these fund investments is determined based on the valuation of the underlying investments included in the fund. Investments in publicly traded equity securities included in these strategic investment funds are valued based on the most recent sale price or official closing price reported on the exchange or over-the-counter market on which they trade, while investments in non-publicly traded equity securities are based on other factors, including but not limited to, type of the security, the size of the holding, the initial cost of the security, the price and extent of public trading in similar securities of the comparable companies, an analysis of the company's or issuer's financial statements and with respect to debt securities, the maturity and creditworthiness. As such, these fund investments have been characterized as Level 3 investments as fair values are based on significant unobservable inputs.
There were no transfers into or out of Level 3 during the first nine months of 2026 or 2025. Acquisitions (capital calls), distributions and fair value changes on Level 3 investments in 2026 and 2025 were as follows:

Share-Based Compensation ExpenseShare-based compensation expenses related to Genmab's RSU and warrant programs for the first nine months of 2026 were $124 million compared to $92 million for the first nine months of 2025.
Share RepurchasesAt Genmab's Annual General Meeting on March 12, 2025, the Board of Directors was authorized to allow Genmab to acquire treasury shares with a total nominal value of up to 10% of the share capital in the period until and including March 11, 2030. The purchase price for the relevant shares may not deviate by more than 10% from the price quoted on Nasdaq Copenhagen at the time of the acquisition. Such shares may only be acquired to the extent that the Company's total holding of treasury shares does not at any time exceed a nominal value of 10% of the share capital. The authorization replaced existing previously provided authorizations to purchase treasury shares.
As announced on February 17, 2026, Genmab initiated a share buy-back program to honor our commitments under the RSU program. During the first nine months of 2026, Genmab acquired 342,130 of its own
shares under the program, representing approximately 0.5% of share capital as of December 31, 2025. The total amount incurred to acquire the shares, including directly attributable costs, was $96 million and was recognized as a deduction to shareholders' equity. These shares are classified as treasury shares and are
presented within retained earnings on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of September 30, 2026. As of September 30, 2026, 5,329,268 shares were available for repurchase, and 911,318 treasury shares were held by Genmab.
As announced on March 25, 2025, Genmab initiated a share buy-back program to reduce capital and to honor our commitments under the RSU program. During the first nine months of 2025, Genmab acquired 2,200,000 of its own shares under the program, representing approximately 3.3% of share capital as of December 31, 2024. The total amount incurred to acquire the shares, including directly attributable costs, was $430 million and was recognized as a deduction to shareholders' equity. These shares are classified as treasury shares and are presented within retained earnings on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of September 30, 2025. As of September 30, 2025, 3,781,534 shares were available for repurchase, and 2,639,101 treasury shares were held by Genmab.
Share Capital ReductionAt Genmab's Annual General Meeting on March 19, 2026, shareholders approved the cancellation of 1,900,000 treasury shares, each with a nominal value of DKK 1, reducing the Company's nominal share capital by DKK 1,900,000. The Board of Directors resolved to complete the capital reduction on April 17, 2026, after which it was registered with the Danish Business Authority. The cancellation resulted in immaterial reductions in share capital and share premium. The corresponding reclassifications within retained earnings offset each other, with no net impact on retained earnings or total equity.

In June 2026, Genmab entered into an amendment to the Credit Agreement executed in December 2025 (the "Amended Credit Agreement"), modifying the interest terms of the Term B Loans. The Amended Credit Agreement reduced the applicable interest margin from 3.00% to 2.00%. At the time of the Amended Credit Agreement, the nominal value on the Term B Loans was $1,950 million, which represented the initial nominal value less life to date principal repayments. Subsequent to the Amended Credit Agreement, the nominal value was $1,900 million. All other terms of the Amended Credit Agreement remain materially consistent with the Credit Agreement. The amendment did not result in derecognition of the financial liability. A modification adjustment of $23 million was made to the carrying amount of the Term B Loans, with the corresponding gain
recognized in other finance income. Other adjustments during the period pertain to capitalized deferred financing fees.
The Term A Loans are subject to financial covenants. As of September 30, 2026, Genmab was in compliance with these covenants.
Refer to Note 4.8 in the Annual Report for further details.
Note 9 - Derivative Financial InstrumentsThe Company uses derivative instruments to manage its exposure to floating-rate debt indexed to 3-month Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR). The Company has entered into interest rate swap agreements designated as cash flow hedges. These agreements are used to manage interest rate risk associated with a portion of the Company's floating-rate debt. The Company follows established risk management policies, including the use of derivatives to hedge interest rates. The counterparties in these derivative instruments are banks which the Company considers the risk of non-performance as minimal.
If the hedge ratio for risk management purposes is no longer optimal but the risk management objective remains unchanged and the hedge continues to qualify for hedge accounting, the hedge relationship will be rebalanced by adjusting either the volume of the hedging instrument or the volume of the hedged item so that the hedge ratio aligns with the ratio used for risk management purposes. Hedge ineffectiveness is measured each reporting date and recognized immediately in profit or loss in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income. Rebalancing the hedge relationship may give rise to additional hedge ineffectiveness.

Deferred Hedging Gains and Losses on Cash Flow Hedges:
Based on valuation at September 30, 2026, and assuming market rates remain constant through contract maturities, it is expected that transfers to earnings of the existing gain or losses reported in Other Comprehensive Income on interest rate cash flow hedges during the next twelve months will correspond to the
current assets portion of the derivative as disclosed in Note 5 in this interim report. No hedge ineffectiveness was recognized in profit or loss during the period.

The $132 million increase in receivables and other assets was primarily due to higher DARZALEX and Kesimpta royalties achieved under our collaborations with J&J and Novartis, driven by higher net sales in the third quarter of 2026 as compared to the fourth quarter of 2025, as well as higher trade receivables resulting from increased EPKINLY sales during the same period. Receivables related to DARZALEX and Kesimpta were
$899 million at September 30, 2026 compared to $822 million at December 31, 2025, an increase of $77 million or 9%.
