Forward-Looking Statements
This overview contains forward-looking statements. These statements relate to, among other things, the sufficiency of our cash position to fund advancement of a broad pipeline; the continued advancement of our discovery, preclinical, and clinical pipeline, and expected milestones in 2023, 2024, and beyond; our goal to continue building a biology-directed engine targeting protein dysregulation; our potential to advance, initiate, and complete IND enabling studies for our discovery and preclinical programs; the treatment potential, designs, proposed mechanisms of action, and potential administration of birtamimab, prasinezumab, NNC6019 (formerly PRX004), PRX005, PRX012, and PRX123; potential indications and attributes of epitopes and antibodies we have identified in our programs; plans for ongoing and future clinical studies of birtamimab, prasinezumab, NNC6019, PRX005, PRX012, and PRX123 (including the filing of an IND application); the expected timing of reporting data from clinical studies of birtamimab, prasinezumab, NNC6019, and PRX012; and amounts we might receive under our partnerships and collaborations with Roche, BMS, and Novo Nordisk. These statements are based on estimates, projections and assumptions that may prove not to be accurate, and actual results could differ materially from those anticipated due to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, including but not limited to those described in the "Risk Factors" sections of our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on August 3, 2023 and discussions of potential risks, uncertainties, and other important factors in our subsequent filings with the SEC. This overview is made as of August 3, 2023, and we undertake no obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements contained in this press release as a result of new information, future events, or changes in our expectations.

Our Team has Pioneered Multiple Scientific
Advances in Protein Dysregulation
OUR LEGACY INCLUDES FOUNDATIONAL DISCOVERIES IN THE UNDERSTANDING OF ALZHEIMER'S DISEASE
1986
Athena Neurosciences founded
1996
Athena acquired by Elan
2012
Prothena spins-out
from Elan with a wholly-owned drug discovery platform
Pioneered fundamental discoveries elucidating the roles of beta amyloid (Aβ), gamma secretase and beta secretase play in disease1
First to show that anti-Aβ immunotherapy prevented and cleared amyloid plaques in the brains of transgenic mice2
First to demonstrate plaque clearance by an n-terminusantibody in brains from AD patients3
Discovered biological cause of ARIA and vascular recovery following anti-Aβ immunotherapy4
Developed PRX012, best-in-classanti-Aβ product candidate, with ~10X greater binding potency to fibrillar Aβ vs. aducanumab5 and ~20X greater binding potency against protofibrils vs. lecanemab6
