Sionna Therapeutics Reports Second Quarter 2026 Financial Results

PreciSION CF Phase 2a proof-of-concept trial evaluating NBD1 stabilizer SION-719 as an add-on to standard of care is on track for topline data summer of 2026

Phase 1 trial evaluating NBD1 stabilizer SION-451 in proprietary dual combinations with SION-2222 and with SION-109 also is on track for topline data summer of 2026

Maintained strong cash position with $268.3 million in cash and cash equivalents, expected to fund operations into 2028

WALTHAM, Mass., Aug 6, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) – Sionna Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: SION), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company on a mission to revolutionize the current treatment paradigm for cystic fibrosis (CF) today reported financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2026, and provided a business update.

“We continued to advance our clinical NBD1 stabilizer programs during the second quarter as we approach two important clinical milestones this summer,” said Mike Cloonan, President and Chief Executive Officer of Sionna. “We remain focused on execution and delivering topline data from both our Phase 2a proof-of-concept trial and our Phase 1 dual combination trial. Together, these studies have the potential to further validate our core belief that directly stabilizing NBD1 is central to restoring CFTR function and transforming the treatment paradigm for people living with cystic fibrosis."

Pipeline Updates

•PreciSION CF Phase 2a Proof-of-Concept Trial with SION-719 Is On Track: The PreciSION CF Phase 2a proof-of-concept (POC) trial (NCT07108153) is evaluating SION-719 as an add-on to standard of care (SOC) in CF participants. The trial is evaluating the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of SION-719 when administered with SOC and assessing change in CFTR function as measured by sweat chloride levels. In April 2026, Sionna announced it had completed enrollment. Topline data from this trial are on track for this summer.

•Phase 1 Dual Combination Trial with SION-451 and Complementary Modulators Is On Track: The Phase 1 trial (NCT07035990) is evaluating SION-451 in proprietary dual combinations with SION-2222 (galicaftor), a transmembrane domain 1 (TMD1)-directed CFTR corrector, and with SION-109, an intracellular loop 4 (ICL4)-directed CFTR corrector, in healthy volunteers. Topline data from this trial are on track for this summer.

•Presented Encore Data at 49th European Cystic Fibrosis Conference: In June 2026, Sionna presented encore clinical and nonclinical data at the 49th European Cystic Fibrosis Conference (ECFS) in Lisbon, Portugal. Presentations highlighted previously reported Phase 1 data for the Company's clinical-stage NBD1 stabilizers, SION-719 and SION-451, and nonclinical data demonstrating the potential of NBD1 stabilizers to increase F508del-CFTR protein half-life up to wild-type levels when used alone or in combination with complementary CFTR modulators. The same data will also be presented at the 16th Australasian Cystic Fibrosis Conference taking place August 7th-9th in Geelong, Australia.

Financial Results for the Quarter Ended June 30, 2026

Research and Development Expenses: Research and development expenses were $21.9 million for the second quarter of 2026, compared to $15.4 million for the second quarter of 2025. These increases were

mainly driven by development expenses to support the advancement of Sionna’s clinical pipeline and personnel-related costs, including stock-based compensation expenses, to support the Company’s continued growth and operational activities.

General and Administrative Expenses: General and administrative expenses were $10.6 million for the second quarter of 2026, compared to $6.5 million for the second quarter of 2025. These increases were primarily due to personnel-related costs, including stock-based compensation expenses, to support the Company’s continued growth and operational activities.

Net Loss: Net loss was $29.9 million for the second quarter of 2026, compared to a net loss of $18.1 million for the second quarter of 2025.

Cash and Cash Equivalents: Cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities totaled $268.3 million as of June 30, 2026. Sionna expects its current cash position to fund operations into 2028.

About Sionna Therapeutics

Sionna Therapeutics is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company on a mission to revolutionize the current treatment paradigm for cystic fibrosis (CF) by developing novel medicines that normalize the function of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) protein. Sionna’s goal is to deliver differentiated medicines for people living with CF that can restore their CFTR function to as close to normal as possible by directly stabilizing CFTR’s nucleotide binding domain 1 (NBD1), which Sionna believes is central to potentially unlocking dramatic improvements in clinical outcomes and quality of life for people with CF. Leveraging more than a decade of the co-founders’ research on NBD1, Sionna is advancing a pipeline of small molecules engineered to correct the defects caused by the F508del genetic mutation, which occurs in NBD1. Sionna is also developing a portfolio of complementary CFTR modulators that are designed to work synergistically with its NBD1 stabilizers to improve CFTR function. For more information about Sionna, visit www.sionnatx.com.

Accordingly, investors should monitor Sionna’s Investor Relations website, in addition to following Sionna’s press releases, SEC filings, public conference calls, presentations, and webcasts.
