2024 A Note from Phathom’s President & CEO To Our Stockholders, It is an honor to address you for the first time as CEO of Phathom Pharmaceuticals. I’m excited to join Phathom at such a pivotal time. Less than 12 months into our full gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD)launch, over 20,000 healthcare providers have prescribed VOQUEZNA® (vonoprazan), resulting in more than 300,000 filledprescriptions. This strong early adoption reflects the significant unmet need in the market for millions of GERD sufferers, and thecore VOQUEZNA value proposition. VOQUEZNA is a game-changing product, providing rapid, potent, and durable clinical benefit. Clinically proven to deliver superiorand sustained acid control compared to a traditional proton pump inhibitor (PPI), VOQUEZNA directly addresses critical gaps inpatient care. In 2024, our FDA approval in Non-Erosive GERD expanded our ability to reach the largest GERD patient segment.With broad payer coverage exceeding 120 million commercial lives and strong prescription growth, VOQUEZNA is meeting theneeds of patients and physicians seeking a more effective alternative to legacy therapies. As Phathom’s new leader, my immediate focus is understanding the drivers of our early traction and helping the team leveragethese strengths to accelerate VOQUEZNA adoption. We are methodically analyzing both our gastroenterology (GI) and primarycare (PCP) customer segments and carefully evaluating each of our sales and marketing initiatives to identify opportunities foreven greater impact. Our talented team deserves recognition. The R&D team demonstrated a compelling clinical profile for VOQUEZNA, securedmultiple regulatory approvals and established superiority across key clinically meaningful endpoints, which now supports broadpatient adoption. The Market Access team has done excellent work securing commercial coverage, which has been crucial toour momentum. The commercial team has performed exceptionally in launching VOQUEZNA into a space that has gone virtuallyunchanged for three decades. Our sales force has demonstrated extraordinary effort and dedication in introducing this newproduct to the market and their ability to effectively communicate VOQUEZNA’s clinical value proposition has been instrumental inour early success. Financially, Phathom is well-positioned with $297 million in cash at the end of 2024. We believe our cash resources, includingexpected product revenues and the funds potentially available under our existing term loan, will be sufficient to fund operationsand enable Phathom to achieve cash flow positive operations. We will be disciplined in our capital allocation and focused on long-term value creation. As I begin my tenure at Phathom, I see my role as being of service to the patients and physicians who use our products, to ourtalented team, and to our shareholders who have entrusted us with their capital. This balance of purpose guides our strategicdecisions. Phathom is only beginning to unlock the potential of VOQUEZNA. With a talented team launching a novel, differentiated productwith clear clinical value, I believe 2025 will represent an inflection point in the evolution of our company. Thank you for your continued confidence and support. Our purpose remains clear: transform the standard of care in GI disordersand meaningfully improve the lives of millions of patients. Your investment enables our mission to bring innovative treatments topatients in need, and we are committed to rewarding your confidence in us.
