(c) On April 30, 2026, Halozyme Therapeutics, Inc. (the “Company”) announced that Darren Snellgrove has been appointed to serve as the Company’s Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), effective June 8, 2026. Since May 2025, Mr. Snellgrove (age 52) has served as Vice President, Investor Relations at Johnson & Johnson, a multinational pharmaceutical, biotechnology and medical technologies corporation (“J&J”). From August 2021 to May 2025, he served as the CFO of J&J’s Pharmaceutical sector. Previously he served in other finance leadership positions at J&J, including as CFO, VP Finance and Operations Pharmaceutical R&D from 2017 to August 2021, and as CFO, J&J Innovation from 2013 to 2017. Prior to 2013, Mr. Snellgrove served in other positions of increasing responsibility at J&J, including serving as CFO, Janssen Alzheimer Immunotherapy. Mr. Snellgrove holds a B.A. Honors Degree in Economics and Philosophy from Southampton University, England and an M.B.A. from Villanova University. Effective as of June 8, 2026, David Ramsay, the Company’s current Interim CFO, will assume an advisory role with the Company to assist during a brief transition period.
In his role as CFO, Mr. Snellgrove will be paid an annual salary of $670,000 and he will be eligible to participate in the Company’s executive officer incentive plans, with a bonus target equal to 50% of his base salary, which will be prorated in 2026. Beginning in 2027, Mr. Snellgrove will be eligible to receive long-term incentive awards in accordance with the Compensation Committee’s equity award grant practices for the Company’s executive officers. Mr. Snellgrove’s 2027 long-term incentive award will have a minimum total grant date value of $4,000,000.
Upon joining the Company, Mr. Snellgrove will receive equity awards with a total grant date value of $7,200,000. This includes $3,200,000 in restricted stock units (“RSUs”), which is intended to make Mr. Snellgrove whole for equity value forfeited in connection with his acceptance of employment at Halozyme following 27 years of service at J&J, and vests one-third on each of the first three anniversaries of the date of grant. It also includes $4,000,000 in stock options that will vest 25% after one year and then in equal monthly installments over the next three years in accordance with the Company’s standard equity award practices for the Company’s executive officers. The equity award will be granted under, and be subject to the terms and conditions of, the Company’s 2021 Stock Plan. As is customary and prevalent competitive practice when hiring an experienced executive of Mr. Snellgrove’s caliber, the Compensation Committee provided the make-whole equity grant in RSUs ($3.2 million), while the balance of his new-hire equity awards was provided in stock options, which will deliver no value to Mr. Snellgrove absent an increase in our share price following his start date, in line with the Company’s pay-for-performance philosophy.
Additionally, a sign-on cash bonus of $350,000 will be provided to Mr. Snellgrove upon joining the Company to make him whole for forgone cash compensation at his former employer. A prorated portion of the sign-on cash bonus is subject to repayment if, within 24 months of hire, Mr. Snellgrove voluntarily terminates his employment or is terminated for misconduct.
There are no family relationships between Mr. Snellgrove and any director, executive officer or person nominated or chosen by the Company to become a director or executive officer. Mr. Snellgrove does not have a direct or indirect material interest in any transaction or arrangement in which the Company is a participant.
On April 30, 2026, the Company issued a press release announcing the appointment of Mr. Snellgrove as CFO. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.

Exhibit 99.1
Halozyme Appoints Darren Snellgrove as Chief Financial Officer
SAN DIEGO, April 30, 2026 -- Halozyme Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ: HALO) (“Halozyme” or the “Company”) today announced the appointment of Darren Snellgrove as Chief Financial Officer (CFO), effective June 8, 2026.
Mr. Snellgrove will be responsible for leading Halozyme’s financial operations and strategy, including capital allocation, corporate development and investor relations. Darren will report to Helen Torley, President and Chief Executive Officer.
“I am delighted to have a financial leader of Darren’s experience and caliber join Halozyme at this exciting time. He is a highly respected finance leader with deep experience and an expansive skillset, demonstrated by successful leadership across major portfolio investments and a strong, well-established record of investor engagement,” said Dr. Helen Torley, President and Chief Executive Officer of Halozyme. “I look forward to having Darren join our leadership team and contribute to the acceleration of value creation for our shareholders.”
Mr. Snellgrove brings more than 30 years of exceptional financial leadership, strategic insight, and operational excellence across the biopharmaceutical and medtech sectors. Most recently, he led investor relations at Johnson & Johnson, a Fortune 50 healthcare company. In that role, he reshaped corporate messaging and investor engagement strategies, strengthened analyst and shareholder relationships, and supported strong market performance.
Previously, Mr. Snellgrove served as Chief Financial Officer of Johnson & Johnson’s Pharmaceuticals sector, where he provided global financial leadership for a business generating more than $50 billion in annual revenue. During his tenure, he delivered impressive financial results, leading large global teams across commercial operations, R&D, supply chain, and business development, and played a central role in major portfolio investments, restructuring initiatives, and business development transactions.
Earlier in his career, Mr. Snellgrove held CFO and senior finance leadership roles across pharmaceutical R&D, innovation, and M&A at Johnson & Johnson, as well as progressive finance roles at Centocor prior to its acquisition.
“I am thrilled to join Halozyme at such an important time in the Company’s evolution,” said Mr. Snellgrove. “Halozyme’s technology has dramatically improved the delivery of biologics for patients, and the company has built a broad technology portfolio with strong partners, durable
royalty streams, and significant long‑term opportunity. I look forward to working with Helen and the entire team to drive sustainable growth and value creation for shareholders.”
Mr. Snellgrove holds an MBA from Villanova University and a BA Honors degree from the University of Southampton in England.
