What Arbutus Biopharma Corp does.

Arbutus Biopharma Corporation (“Arbutus”, the “Company”, “we”, “us”, and “our”) is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on infectious disease. We are currently developing imdusiran (AB-729), our proprietary, GalNAc-conjugated, subcutaneously-delivered ribonucleic acid interference (RNAi) therapeutic, and AB-101, our proprietary oral PD-L1 inhibitor, for the treatment of chronic hepatitis B (cHBV).

We continue to protect and defend our intellectual property, which is the subject of our ongoing lawsuit against Pfizer Inc. and BioNTech SE (collectively, Pfizer/BioNTech) for their use of our patented lipid nanoparticle (LNP) technology in their COVID-19 messenger ribonucleic acid interference (mRNA)-LNP vaccines. The court issued a claim construction ruling in September 2025, which construed the disputed claim terms in a manner we generally consider to be favorable. The parties are awaiting further scheduling in the litigation.

On March 3, 2026, we, along with Genevant Sciences GmbH and its parent (collectively, Genevant), entered into a settlement agreement (the Moderna Settlement Agreement) to resolve all patent infringement litigation and patent revocation proceedings involving Moderna, Inc. and its affiliates (collectively, Moderna) pending in the United States and internationally (the Moderna LNP Litigation). Under the terms of the Moderna Settlement Agreement, Moderna will make an aggregate $950.0 million noncontingent lump sum payment (the Noncontingent Settlement Payment) to us and Genevant on or before July 8, 2026. In addition, Moderna is obligated to pay us and Genevant an additional aggregate contingent lump sum payment of $1.3 billion (the Contingent Settlement Payment) upon a ruling that is favorable to us and Genevant in a limited appeal related to 28 U.S.C. §1498 (§1498) that Moderna is allowed to file pursuant to the Moderna Settlement Agreement (the Moderna §1498 Appeal). Under our license with Genevant, we are entitled to receive, after deduction of litigation costs, 20% of the Noncontingent Settlement Payment. In addition, as of the date of this annual report, we own approximately 16% of the outstanding common equity of Genevant. We are currently evaluating a return of capital to our shareholders in the third quarter of calendar year 2026, following the receipt of our portion of the Noncontingent Settlement Payment.
