CARLSBAD, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--August 06, 2026-- 

Lineage Cell Therapeutics, Inc. (NYSE American and TASE: LCTX), a clinical-stage biotechnology company developing novel, allogeneic, "off the shelf", cell therapies for serious medical conditions, today reported its second quarter 2026 financial and operating results. The Company will host a conference call today at 4:30 p.m. Eastern Time to discuss these results and to provide a business update.

"As we continue to support our collaboration with Roche and Genentech for their clinical development of OpRegen, Lineage remains focused on building out our allogeneic cell transplant pipeline. Our most recent advancement is COR1, our wholly-owned corneal endothelial cell (CEnC) therapy preclinical program, which we believe highlights the value of our pluripotent cell-based therapeutic platform to be able to generate novel assets with differentiated and potentially superior characteristics," stated Brian M. Culley, Lineage CEO. "COR1 benefits from our existing ophthalmology and manufacturing expertise and represents a natural next application of our platform. Notably, only nine months after internal lab work began, we successfully utilized our proprietary AlloSCOPE$(TM)$ 5D technology to achieve seamless bioreactor-based precursor expansion and differentiation to support large-scale CEnC production. We believe this expansion and differentiation capability, together with a thaw-and-inject formulation, can support the development of an exciting and potentially disruptive asset in corneal disease."

"The COR1 program, together with others in our pipeline, reflects Lineage's balanced business strategy: to provide manufacturing support for Roche and Genentech's clinical development of RG6501 while also prioritizing programs that we believe can potentially generate meaningful data from early clinical trials, which could allow us to evaluate clinical potential earlier, optimize capital allocation, and accelerate value creation," added Mr. Culley.

   --  Positive RG6501 (OpRegen cell therapy) Phase 1/2a clinical study 3 year 
      results encore featured at Foundation Fighting Blindness' Retinal 
      Therapeutics Innovation Summit 2026, suggest evidence of sustained gains 
      in best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) and partial structural restoration 
      of the retina, including regions with re-appearance of an RPE layer and 
      features associated with recovery of photoreceptors. 
 
   --  Positive long-term clinical outcomes reported following a single 
      administration of OpRegen cell therapy. 
 
          --  Clinical data reported at 12-, 24-, and 36-months for Cohort 4 
             (less advanced disease) of the Phase 1/2a study (12 patients) has 
             continued to demonstrate a consistent and durable treatment effect, 
             with OpRegen-treated eyes exhibiting mean BCVA scores above 
             baseline at each of these timepoints in these patients. Five 
             patients who received extensive coverage of OpRegen cell therapy 
             across their geographic atrophy (GA) lesion are demonstrating 
             long-term outcomes consistent with meaningful disease 
             stabilization and even improvement through 36 months.

      endothelial cell therapy (CEnC) program, a wholly-owned preclinical asset 
      which benefits from our existing ophthalmology and manufacturing 
      expertise and which represents a natural next application of our 
      technology platform. 
 
   --  Utilizing Lineage's proprietary cell manufacturing and expansion 
      platform, AlloSCOPE, the Company successfully achieved seamless 
      bioreactor-based precursor expansion and differentiation to support CEnC 
      production which, together with a thaw-and-inject formulation, may 
      demonstrate a potentially superior product profile, and which meets 
      Lineage's internal criteria for continued preclinical advancement. 
 
   --  Lineage has also elected to advance the COR1 program into in-vivo 
      animal testing with initial preclinical data expected to be generated in 
      2026. 
 
   --  Applicable indications for COR1 are expected to include Fuchs 
      Endothelial Corneal Dystrophy (FECD) and Bullous Keratopathy. 

- OPC1 Program (Spinal Cord Injury)

   --  Currently enrolling participants in the DOSED (Delivery of 
      Oligodendrocyte Progenitor Cells (OPCs) for Spinal Cord Injury: 
      Evaluation of a Novel Device) clinical study. The DOSED study is 
      evaluating the safety and utility of a novel delivery device developed to 
      deliver OPC1 directly to the area of injury and will enroll both subacute 
      (between 21 to 42 days following injury) and chronic (between 1 to 5 
      years following injury) SCI participants. 
 
   --  Two successful administrations using the novel delivery system have 
      been completed in chronic SCI participants. Participants experienced no 
      unexpected procedural, product, or device-related adverse events and no 
      significant design changes are required for continuation of the DOSED

      manufacturing initiative, advancing from 0.5L to multi-liter scale using 
      a fully suspension-based process for generating undifferentiated 
      pluripotent cells using one of our proprietary cell lines, which supports 
      further and continued development. 
 
   --  The goal of ILT1 is to establish a production modality that can support 
      an expansion through differentiation process, entirely in a dynamic 
      culturing system, which if successful and applied to islet cell 
      differentiation, could potentially solve a major hurdle to production and 
      commercialization of an islet cell therapy product candidate for the 
      potential treatment of Type 1 Diabetes.

Balance Sheet Highlights

Cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities of $50.8 million as of June 30, 2026 is expected to support planned operations into Q3 2028.

Second Quarter Operating Results

Revenues: Revenue is generated primarily from collaboration revenues, royalties, and other revenues. Total revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2026 were $1.1 million, a net decrease of $1.7 million as compared to $2.8 million for the same period in 2025. The decrease was primarily driven by lower collaboration revenue recognized from deferred revenues under the Roche Agreement reflective of measured progress toward completion of the first performance obligation, as well as lower revenues recognized associated with the prior year termination of the VAC platform-related collaboration agreement, partially offset by an increase in revenue related to our new research collaboration agreement with WDI.

Operating Expenses: Operating expenses are comprised of research and development ("R&D") expenses and general and administrative ("G&A") expenses. Total operating expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2026 were $10.0 million, a decrease of $12.5 million as compared to $22.5 million for the same period in 2025. The overall decrease was primarily driven by the $14.8 million expense recognized in the prior year for the loss on impairment for the intangible asset related to the VAC platform.

R&D Expenses: R&D expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2026 were $4.8 million, an increase of $1.7 million as compared to $3.1 million for the same period in 2025. The net increase was primarily driven by our preclinical programs and other undisclosed programs.

G&A Expenses: G&A expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2026 were $5.2 million, an increase of $0.7 million as compared to approximately $4.5 million for the same period in 2025. The net increase was primarily driven by personnel costs and stock-based compensation expense.

Loss from Operations: Loss from operations for the three months ended June 30, 2026 were $8.9 million, a decrease of $10.9 million as compared to $19.8 million for the same period in 2025. This decrease was primarily driven by the prior year non-cash impairment expense related to the VAC platform of $14.8 million, which was a non-recurring transaction.

Other Income/(Expenses): Other income/(expenses) for the three months ended June 30, 2026 reflected other income of $10.5 million, compared to other expense of ($10.6) million for the same period in 2025. The net change was primarily attributable to the quarterly fair value non-cash remeasurement of the warrant liabilities driven by a decrease in our share price as compared to an increase in the prior year's quarter, partially offset by exchange rate fluctuations related to Lineage's international subsidiaries.

Net Income/(Loss) Attributable to Lineage: The net income/(loss) attributable to Lineage for the three months ended June 30, 2026 was net income of $1.5 million, or $0.01 earnings per share (basic) and ($0.03) loss per share (diluted), compared to a net loss of ($30.5) million, or ($0.13) loss per share (basic and diluted), for the same period in 2025. The change was primarily driven by the prior year non-cash loss on impairment expense related to a 2019 acquisition and the quarterly fair value remeasurement of the warrant liabilities.

About the AlloSCOPE(TM) (Allogeneic, Scalable, Consistent, Off-the-shelf, Pluripotent Cell Engineering) Platform

The AlloSCOPE (Allogeneic, Scalable, Consistent, Off-the-shelf, Pluripotent Cell Engineering) platform highlights the key attributes of Lineage's in-house technology and describes a differentiation and production modality from which Lineage can manufacture millions of doses of an allogeneic, cell-based product derived from a single initial pluripotent cell line, conferring consistent, cost-effective, and scalable cell-based production and which can be applied across multiple programs. From our proprietary AlloSCOPE platform, we successfully completed a current Good Manufacturing Practice ("cGMP") production run from a custom, two-tiered cell banking system, featuring a genetically-stable master cell bank $(MCB)$ created from a single, well-characterized pluripotent cell line, which generated a working cell bank (WCB), which then provided the source material for two final cell-based product candidates. AlloSCOPE "5D" describes an application of AlloSCOPE with the goal of higher scale production with reduced manipulation.

About Lineage Cell Therapeutics, Inc.

Lineage Cell Therapeutics is a clinical-stage biotechnology company developing novel allogeneic, or "off the shelf", cell therapies for serious medical conditions. Lineage's programs are based on its proprietary cell-based technology platform, AlloSCOPE(TM) (Allogeneic, Scalable, Consistent, Off-the-shelf, Pluripotent Cell Engineering), and associated development and manufacturing capabilities. From this proprietary AlloSCOPE platform, Lineage develops, manufactures, and tests specialized human cells with anatomical and physiological functions similar or substantially identical to cells found naturally in the human body. These cells are created by applying directed differentiation protocols to established, well-characterized, and self-renewing pluripotent cell lines. These protocols generate cells with characteristics associated with specific and desired developmental lineages, and in some instances may be designed to have additional beneficial properties. Cells derived from such lineages are transplanted into patients in an effort to replace or support cells that are absent or dysfunctional due to degenerative disease, aging, or traumatic injury, and to restore or augment the patient's functional activity. Lineage's pipeline currently includes: (i) OpRegen$(R)$ cell therapy, a retinal pigment epithelial cell therapy in Phase 2a development under a worldwide collaboration with Roche and Genentech, a member of the Roche Group, for the treatment of geographic atrophy secondary to age-related macular degeneration; (ii) OPC1, an oligodendrocyte progenitor cell therapy in Phase 1/2a development for the treatment of spinal cord injuries; (iii) ReSonance(TM) (ANP1), an auditory neuronal progenitor cell therapy in preclinical development under a collaboration with William Demant Invest A/S for the potential treatment of auditory neuropathy; (iv) PNC1, a photoreceptor neural cell therapy research initiative being evaluated for development for the potential treatment of vision loss due to photoreceptor dysfunction or damage; (v) RND1, a novel hypoimmune induced pluripotent stem cell line being evaluated for development under a gene editing partnership; (vi) ILT1, a cell therapy manufacturing initiative focused on the issue of large-scale production of undifferentiated pluripotent cells, which if successful could be evaluated for the production of islet cells to support a potential treatment of Type 1 Diabetes; and (vii) COR1, a corneal endothelial disease cell therapy in preclinical development for the potential treatment of corneal endothelial disease.
