May 8, 2025 Copenhagen, Denmark;

Interim Report for the First Quarter Ended March 31, 2025

Highlights

   -- EPKINLY$(R)$ (epcoritamab) approved by the Japan Ministry of Health, Labour 
      and Welfare $(MHLW.SI)$ for additional indication as a treatment for relapsed 
      or refractory follicular lymphoma $(FL)$ 
 
   -- Rinatabart sesutecan (Rina-S(R)) continues to show encouraging antitumor 
      activity in patients with advanced ovarian cancer in data presented at 
      the 2025 Society of Gynecologic Oncology Annual Meeting on Women's 
      Cancer(R) $(SGO.AU)$ 
 
   -- Tivdak(R) (tisotumab vedotin) approved by the Japan MHLW and by the 
      European Commission $(EC)$ as the first and only antibody-drug conjugate 
      $(ADC)$ approved in both Japan and the European Union $(EU)$ for the 
      treatment of recurrent or metastatic cervical cancer after prior therapy 
 
   -- Genmab revenue increased 19% compared to the first quarter of 2024, to 
      $715 million 

"Our commitment to advancing our late-stage programs was reflected in the progress we made in the first quarter of the year. Both EPKINLY and Tivdak expanded their reach with approvals in additional territories and the updated Rina-S data presented at SGO reinforces its potential as a treatment option for patients with advanced ovarian cancer," said Jan van de Winkel, Ph.D., Chief Executive Officer of Genmab.

Financial Performance First Quarter of 2025

   -- Revenue was $715 million for the first three months of 2025 compared to 
      $603 million for the first three months of 2024. The increase of $112 
      million, or 19%, was primarily driven by higher DARZALEX(R) and 
      Kesimpta(R) royalties achieved under our collaborations with Johnson & 
      Johnson (J&J) and Novartis Pharma AG (Novartis), respectively, and 
      EPKINLY net product sales. 
 
   -- Royalty revenue was $589 million in the first three months of 2025 
      compared to $452 million in the first three months of 2024, an increase 
      of $137 million, or 30%. The increase in royalties was driven by higher 
      net sales of DARZALEX and Kesimpta. 
 
   -- Net sales of DARZALEX (daratumumab), including sales of the subcutaneous 
      (SC) product (daratumumab and hyaluronidase-fihj, sold under the 
      tradename DARZALEX FASPRO(R) in the U.S.) by J&J were $3,237 million in 
      the first three months of 2025 compared to $2,692 million in the first 
      three months of 2024, an increase of $545 million or 20%. 
 
   -- Total costs and operating expenses were $527 million in the first three 
      months of 2025 compared to $487 million in the first three months of 
      2024. The increase of $40 million, or 8%, was driven by the expansion of 
      our product pipeline, including Rina-S, the continued development of 
      Genmab's broader organizational capabilities as well as profit-sharing 
      amounts payable to AbbVie Inc. (AbbVie) related to EPKINLY sales. 
 
   -- Operating profit was $188 million in the first three months of 2025 
      compared to $116 million in the first three months of 2024. 
 
   -- Net financial items resulted in income of $56 million for the first three 
      months of 2025 compared to $133 million in the first three months of 
      2024. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in foreign exchange 
      impacts driven by the change in functional currency of Genmab A/S on 
      January 1, 2025.
