MAINZ, Germany, March 27, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- BioNTech SE (Nasdaq: BNTX, “BioNTech” or the “Company”) today reported financial results for the three months and full year ended December 31, 2022, and provided an update on its corporate progress.

“We made significant progress in 2022 by advancing our pipeline and launching the world’s first Omicron BA.4/BA.5 adapted bivalent COVID-19 vaccine. In addition, multiple new modalities achieved encouraging clinical data and we progressed nine new programs into clinical trials,” said Prof. Ugur Sahin, M.D., CEO and Co-Founder of BioNTech. “As we look to 2023 and beyond, we plan to continue investing in our transformation with a focus on building commercial capabilities in oncology and working towards registrational trials. Our mid-term goal is to seek approval for multiple oncology products in cancer indications with high unmet medical need.”

Financial Review for the Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2022 Financial Results
in millions, except per share dataFourth Quarter 2022Fourth Quarter 2021Full Year 2022Full Year 2021
Total Revenues1
€4,278.3€5,532.5€17,310.6€18,976.7
Net Profit€2,278.7€3,166.2€9,434.4€10,292.5
Diluted Earnings per Share€9.26€12.18€37.77€39.63

Total revenues reported were €4,278.3 million1 for the three months ended December 31, 2022, compared to €5,532.5 million1 for the comparative prior year period. For the year ended December 31, 2022, total revenues were €17,310.6 million1, compared to €18,976.7 million1 for the comparative prior year period. The change corresponds with the demand for COVID-19 vaccines.

Cost of sales were €183.5 million for the three months ended December 31, 2022, compared to €583.2 million for the comparative prior year period. For the year ended December 31, 2022, cost of sales were €2,995.0 million, compared to €2,911.5 million for the comparative prior year period. Cost of sales were impacted by expenses arising from inventory write-offs and expenses for production capacities derived from agreements with contract manufacturing organizations that became redundant. In addition, during the three months ended December 31, 2022, cost of sales were impacted by the release of provisions.

Research and development expenses were €509.8 million for the three months ended December 31, 2022, compared to €271.5 million for the comparative prior year period. For the year ended December 31, 2022, research and development expenses were €1,537.0 million, compared to €949.2 million for the comparative prior year period. The increase was mainly due to expenses in connection with the development and production of BioNTech’s and Pfizer’s Omicron-adapted bivalent COVID-19 vaccines and from progressing the clinical studies for BioNTech’s pipeline candidates. The increase was further driven by a higher headcount in the R&D area and expenses incurred under BioNTech’s share-based-payment arrangements.

General and administrative expenses were €122.9 million for the three months ended December 31, 2022, compared to €130.9 million for the comparative prior year period. For the year ended December 31, 2022, general and administrative expenses were €484.7 million, compared to €285.8 million for the comparative prior year period. The increase was mainly due to increased expenses for IT and purchased external services as well as an increase in headcount.

Income taxes were accrued in an amount of €893.9 million of tax expenses for the three months ended December 31, 2022, compared to €1,547.7 million of tax expenses for the comparative prior year period. For the year ended December 31, 2022, income taxes accrued were €3,519.7 million of tax expenses, compared to €4,753.9 million of tax expenses for the comparative prior year period. The derived annual effective income tax rate for the year ended December 31, 2022, was 27.2%.

Net profit was €2,278.7 million for the three months ended December 31, 2022, compared to €3,166.2 million for the comparative prior year period. For the year ended December 31, 2022, net profit was €9,434.4 million, compared to €10,292.5 million for the comparative prior year period.

Cash and cash equivalents were €13,875.1 million as of December 31, 2022. Subsequent to the end of the reporting period, the payment settling BioNTech’s gross profit share for the third quarter of 2022 (as defined by the contract) in the amount of €1,816.5 million was received from our collaboration partner as of January 12, 2023. The contractual settlement of the gross profit share under the COVID-19 collaboration with Pfizer has a temporal offset of more than one calendar quarter. As Pfizer’s fiscal quarter for subsidiaries outside the United States differs from BioNTech’s financial reporting cycle, it creates an additional time lag between the recognition of revenues and the payment receipt.

Shares Outstanding: Shares outstanding as of December 31, 2022, were 243,215,169.

“Our COVID-19 vaccine revenues, driven by the delivery of our Omicron-adapted bivalent vaccines, have ensured another strong financial performance in 2022,” said Jens Holstein, CFO of BioNTech. “We believe that the Company’s financial success in 2022 will provide a springboard to accelerate and build upon our diversified clinical pipeline and fuel our research and development in the coming years. The announced acquisition of InstaDeep and the recent license and collaboration agreement with OncoC4, which adds a clinical program to our existing portfolio aim to create future value for BioNTech mid- to long-term. We anticipate our COVID-19 franchise will further support our already existing financial strength in the years to come. As a science and innovation driven company, we plan to continue to invest heavily in R&D and are willing to invest in mergers and acquisitions as well as collaborations to create future growth for the Company.”

Outlook for the 2023 Financial Year:

The Company’s outlook contains the following components:

This revenue estimate reflects expected revenues related to BioNTech’s share of gross profit from COVID-19 vaccine sales in the collaboration partner’s territories, from direct COVID-19 vaccine sales to customers in BioNTech’s territory and expected revenues from sales to collaboration partners which may be influenced by costs like inventory write-offs once materialized and shared with the collaboration partner Pfizer.
Revenue guidance is based on various assumptions including but not limited to the expected transition from an advanced purchase agreement environment to commercial market ordering starting in 2023 and a regulatory recommendation to adapt the COVID-19 vaccines to address newly circulating variants or sublineages of SARS-CoV-2. The estimated BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine revenues reflect expected deliveries under existing or committed supply contracts and anticipated sales through traditional commercial orders. A re-negotiation of the existing supply contract with the European Commission is ongoing, with the potential for a rephasing of deliveries of doses across multiple years and/or a volume reduction. While a vaccine adaptation is expected to lead to an increased demand, fewer primary vaccinations and lowered population-wide levels of boosting are anticipated. Seasonal demand is assumed, moving expected revenue generation significantly to the second half of the year 2023.
Planned 2023 Financial Year Expenses and Capex:
R&D expenses€2,400 million - €2,600 million
SG&A expenses€650 million - €750 million
Capital expenditures€500 million - €600 million
Estimated 2023 Financial Year Tax Assumptions:
BioNTech Group estimated annual cash effective income tax rate~27%
Numbers reflect current base case projections, include potential effects caused or driven by additional collaborations or potential M&A transactions to the extent they have been disclosed and are calculated based on constant currency rates.

Operational Review of the Fourth Quarter and Key Post Period-End Events

COVID-19 Vaccine Programs – BNT162 (COMIRNATY)

Commercial updates

In December 2022, BioNTech and Pfizer announced that approximately 2 billion doses of COMIRNATY were invoiced globally in 2022 between the two companies, including approximately 550 million doses of the Original/Omicron BA.4-5-adapted bivalent COVID-19 vaccine, as of mid-December 2022.
In January 2023, BioNTech and Pfizer announced that negotiations were ongoing for the re-phasing of delivery timelines for the COMIRNATY supply agreement with the European Commission (EC). The agreement with the EC was signed in May 2021 and a rephasing agreement was previously reached in May 2022.
As part of BioNTech’s and Pfizer's 2-billion-doses-pledge to support equitable access to medicines, the companies have delivered approximately 1.7 billion doses of COMIRNATY to low- and middle-income countries in line with demand. The deliveries include both the Original/Omicron BA.4-5-adapted bivalent COVID-19 vaccine and the original COVID-19 vaccine.

Clinical development and regulatory updates

Original COVID-19 vaccine
In October 2022, BioNTech and Pfizer received EC approval for the conversion of the conditional Marketing Authorization (CMA) to full Marketing Authorization (MA). The

conversion applies to all existing indications and formulations of the COMIRNATY product group authorized in the European Union, including Original/Omicron BA.1- and BA.4-5-adapted bivalent COVID-19 vaccines as booster doses for individuals aged 12 years and older.
In October 2022, BioNTech and Pfizer received EC approval for full MA for a 3-µg dose of the original COVID-19 vaccine as a three-dose series for children aged six months through four years.
In October 2022, BioNTech and Pfizer received EC approval for a fourth dose booster of the original COVID-19 vaccine in individuals 12 years of age and older at an interval of at least three months between the administration of the original COVID-19 vaccine and the last prior dose of a COVID-19 vaccine.
Original/Omicron BA.4-5-adapted bivalent COVID-19 vaccine booster
In the second half of 2022, BioNTech and Pfizer received approval or authorization of a 30-µg booster dose of the Original/Omicron BA.4-5-adapted bivalent COVID-19 vaccine for individuals aged 12 years and older, granted by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) (August), European Commission (EC) (September), Health Canada (October), and Health Bureau of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region of the People's Republic of China (November). The Original/Omicron BA.4-5-adapted bivalent COVID-19 vaccine was approved or authorized for use in more than 65 countries and regions in 2022. Authorization of a 10-µg booster dose of Original/Omicron BA.4-5-adapted bivalent COVID-19 vaccine in children five through 11 years of age was granted by U.S. FDA (EUA) (October) and EC (November).
In November 2022, BioNTech and Pfizer reported updated 30-day clinical data from the randomized Phase 2/3 clinical trial evaluating the safety, tolerability and immunogenicity of the companies’ Original/Omicron BA.4-5-adapted bivalent COVID-19 vaccine, given as a 30-µg booster dose. The data demonstrated a robust and broadly neutralizing immune response one month after a 30-µg booster dose. There was a substantially higher increase in Omicron BA.4/BA.5-neutralizing antibody titers compared to pre-booster levels for those who received the bivalent vaccine compared to the original COVID-19 vaccine, with similar favorable safety and tolerability profile demonstrated between both vaccines.
In November 2022, BioNTech and Pfizer announced results from an analysis examining the immune response induced by the Original/Omicron BA.4-5-adapted bivalent COVID-19 vaccine against newer Omicron sublineages with enhanced escape mechanisms, including BA.4.6, BA.2.75.2, BQ.1.1 and XBB.1. The published data (Zou et al. Neutralization of BA.4–BA.5, BA.4.6, BA.2.75.2, BQ.1.1, and XBB.1 with Bivalent Vaccine; N Engl J Med 2023; 388:854-857) indicated that the bivalent vaccine elicits a greater increase in neutralizing antibody titers than the original COVID-19 vaccine against these emerging Omicron sublineages.
In December 2022, BioNTech and Pfizer received U.S. FDA EUA for their Original/Omicron BA.4-5-adapted bivalent COVID-19 vaccine as the third 3-µg dose in the three-dose primary series for children six months through four years of age.

Next-generation COVID-19 vaccine
In November 2022, BioNTech and Pfizer initiated a Phase 1 clinical trial to evaluate the safety, tolerability and immunogenicity of BNT162b4, a next-generation COVID-19 vaccine candidate that aims to enhance SARS-CoV-2 T cell responses and potentially broaden protection against upcoming variants and increase durability of protection.
COVID-19 – Influenza Combination mRNA Vaccine Program (BNT162b2 + BNT161)
In October 2022, BioNTech and Pfizer initiated a Phase 1 open-label, dose-finding clinical trial to evaluate the safety, tolerability and immunogenicity of a combination of the COVID-19 and influenza mRNA vaccines to help protect individuals against influenza and COVID-19 with a single injection. A data update from this trial is expected in 2023.
In December, BioNTech and Pfizer received Fast Track Designation from the U.S. FDA for their mRNA-based combination vaccine candidate.

Fourth Quarter 2022 Infectious Disease Pipeline Update and Outlook

HSV-2 Vaccine Program – BNT163
In December 2022, BioNTech initiated a Phase 1 clinical trial of BNT163, a herpes simplex virus (HSV) vaccine candidate for the prevention of genital lesions caused by HSV-2 and potentially HSV-1. The trial will evaluate the safety, tolerability and immunogenicity of BNT163. A data update is expected in 2H 2023.

Malaria Vaccine Program – BNT165
In December 2022, BioNTech initiated a Phase 1 clinical trial of BNT165b1, the first candidate from the Company’s BNT165 program to develop a multi-antigen malaria vaccine candidate. This first clinical trial (NCT05581641) will evaluate the safety, tolerability and exploratory immunogenicity of the vaccine candidate. A data update is expected in 2H 2023.

Shingles Vaccine Program – BNT167
In February 2023, BioNTech and Pfizer initiated a randomized controlled, dose-selection Phase 1/2 clinical trial of BNT167, the companies’ mRNA vaccine candidates against shingles (also known as herpes zoster). The clinical trial (NCT05703607) will evaluate the safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of mRNA vaccine candidates against shingles. A data update is expected in 2023.

Fourth Quarter 2022 Oncology Pipeline Update and Outlook

In 2022, BioNTech started five first-in-human clinical trials:
BNT116, a FixVac program for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC),
BNT141 and BNT142, two RiboMabs for CLDN18.2-positive and CLDN6-positive solid tumors and
BNT313, a HexaBody targeting CD27, and BNT322 (undisclosed target), two new antibody candidates from its collaboration with Genmab being evaluated in solid tumors.

BNT113, a candidate based on BioNTech’s FixVac off-the-shelf mRNA-based cancer immunotherapy approach, is being developed as a first-line treatment for patients with unresectable recurrent or metastatic HPV16+ head and neck squamous cell carcinoma, or HNSCC, expressing PD-L1. BNT113 has not previously been combined with anti-PD1 therapy.
In December 2022, BioNTech presented preliminary safety data from the run-in portion (Part A) of the ongoing Phase 2 trial designed to demonstrate the safety of the combination of BNT113 and pembrolizumab at the annual European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO) Immuno-Oncology Congress. As of July 5, 2022, of 15 treated patients, 12 had completed the safety run-in (pembrolizumab + four BNT113 doses). Data showed safety was acceptable and in line with the safety profile of BNT113 and pembrolizumab as single agents; no new safety signals were observed for the combination. The randomized Part B is ongoing.

Autogene cevumeran (BNT122) is a candidate based on an individualized neoantigen-specific immunotherapy (iNeST) approach developed for the treatment of adjuvant and metastatic cancers in collaboration with Genentech, a member of the Roche Group. Each autogene cevumeran dose includes up to 20 different neoantigens selected on a patient-by-patient basis.
In 2023, BioNTech and Genentech are expecting a data update from an ongoing open-label Phase 2 trial evaluating the efficacy and safety of autogene cevumeran in combination with pembrolizumab versus pembrolizumab alone in patients with previously untreated advanced melanoma.
·A Phase 2 clinical trial of autogene cevumeran in the adjuvant setting in patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is planned to open in 2023.

BNT211 is a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) directing T cells against the novel target CLDN6 that is tested alone and in combination with a CAR-T cell Amplifying RNA Vaccine, or CARVac, encoding CLDN6. CARVac is intended to drive in vivo expansion of transferred CAR-T cells to increase their persistence and efficacy.
Page 5

https://cdn.kscope.io/3b7b360dd1c0648c08d434dd1e67b77a-image_0.jpg
In 2023, BioNTech expects to provide a data update on the ongoing Phase 1/2 dose escalation and expansion, evaluating CLDN6 CAR-T cells with or without CLDN6 CARVac in patients with CLDN6-positive relapsed or refractory advanced solid tumors.
·In September 2022, BioNTech provided a data update from the ongoing study at the ESMO Congress, which demonstrated signs of anti-tumor activity and a manageable safety profile across both dose levels. An efficacy assessment of 21 evaluable patients showed an overall response rate, or ORR, of 33% and a disease control rate, or DCR, of 67% with one complete response, six partial responses and seven patients with stable disease. Particularly encouraging clinical responses were seen in patients with testicular cancer treated with dose level 2 after lymphodepletion (n=7), where one complete response, three partial responses and two stable diseases were observed, representing an ORR of 57% and a DCR of 85%.
·The Company expects a Phase 2 study of BNT211 in patients with 2L+ platinum resistant testicular cancer to start in 2024.

BNT312 (GEN1042) is a first-in-class bispecific antibody candidate designed to induce conditional immune activation by crosslinking CD40 and 4-1BB positive cells.
In December 2022, BioNTech and Genmab presented updated data from the safety run-in and expansion cohorts of the Phase 1/2 study of BNT312 combination therapy at the ESMO Immuno-Oncology Annual Congress. The data demonstrated that BNT312 + pembrolizumab (PEM) ± chemotherapy (CTx) was well tolerated with no reported dose-limiting toxicity. Most adverse events were grade 1/2 and manageable. BNT312 (GEN1042) + PEM + CTx showed encouraging early activity in patients with advanced/metastatic HNSCC, with responses observed in 4/4 evaluable patients. The observed immune activity mediated by BNT312 retained with combination therapy. Enrollment in this trial is ongoing in all cohorts (NSCLC, pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, and HNSCC). 

BNT313 (GEN1053) is a monospecific antibody candidate targeting CD27 to address malignant solid tumors. It is based on Genmab's HexaBody technology and is engineered to induce clustering of CD27 on the plasma membrane of T cells with the aim of enhancing T cell activation, proliferation and differentiation without depleting T cells.
In November 2022, the Company initiated a Phase 1 clinical trial to evaluate the safety, tolerability and preliminary efficacy of BNT313 for the treatment of malignant solid tumors.
Preclinical data characterizing the mechanism of action of BNT313 were presented at the 37th Annual Meeting of the Society for Immunotherapy of Cancer (SITC) in November 2022. In the in vitro experiments, BNT313 exhibited CD27 agonist activity independently of Fc gamma receptor-mediated crosslinking. BNT313 enhanced activation, proliferation and proinflammatory cytokine secretion of human CD4+ and CD8+ T cells as well as CD8+ T cell mediated cytotoxic activity towards tumor cells in vitro. In mice expressing human CD27 protein, it enhanced expansion and IFN-γ secretion of antigen-specific CD8+ T cells in vivo. Overall, the data supported a mechanism of action that distinguishes BNT313 from benchmark monoclonal antibodies targeting CD27.

COMIRNATY®▼(the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine) has been granted standard marketing authorization (MA) by the European Commission to prevent coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) in the population aged 6 months and older. In people from 5 years of age and older the vaccine is administered as a 2-dose series, 3 weeks apart. Adults and adolescents from the age of 12 are given 30 micrograms per dose; children aged 5 to 11 years are given 10 micrograms per dose. There is a pediatric formulation containing 3 micrograms per dose available for infants and children 6 months to 4 years of age. In this age group, COMIRNATY can be given as primary vaccination consisting of three doses (of 3 micrograms each); the first two doses are given 3 weeks apart, followed by a third dose given at least 8 weeks after the second dose. In addition, the MA has been expanded to include a booster dose (third dose) of 30 micrograms at least 3 months after the second dose in individuals 12 years of age and older. A booster dose of COMIRNATY 10 micrograms may be given to children from5 to 11 years of age at least 6 months after the primary vaccination course. A third primary course dose may be administered at least 28 days after the second dose to people aged 5 years and older with a severely weakened immune system. The European Medicines Agency’s (EMA’s) Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) has completed its rigorous evaluation of COMIRNATY, concluding by consensus that sufficiently robust data on the quality, safety and efficacy of the vaccine are now available. COMIRNATY® ▼(the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine), Bivalent: COMIRNATY Original/Omicron BA.1, COMIRNATY Original/Omicron BA.4-5 In addition, COMIRNATY has also been granted standard MA for two Omicron subvariant adapted vaccines: COMIRNATY Original/Omicron BA.1, which contains mRNA encoding for the spike protein of the wild-type and of the Omicron BA.1 subvariant of SARS-CoV-2; and COMIRNATY Original/Omicron BA.4-5, which contains mRNA encoding for the spike protein of the wild-type and of the Omicron BA.4/BA.5 subvariant of SARS-CoV-2. COMIRNATY Original/Omicron BA.1 or COMIRNATY Original/Omicron BA.4-5 (30 micrograms per dose) may be administered as a booster in people aged 12 years and older who have received at least a primary vaccination course against COVID-19. A booster dose of COMIRNATY Original/Omicron BA.4-5 (10 micrograms per dose) may be given to people aged from 5 years to 11 years after primary vaccination or a booster dose with a COVID-19 vaccine. There should be an interval of at least 3 months between administration of COMIRNATY Original/Omicron BA.1 or COMIRNATY Original/Omicron BA.4-5 and the last prior dose of a COVID-19 vaccine. IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION: • Events of anaphylaxis have been reported. Appropriate medical treatment and supervision should always be readily available in case of an anaphylactic reaction following the administration of the vaccine. • There is an increased, but very rare risk (<1/10,000 cases) of myocarditis and pericarditis following vaccination with COMIRNATY. These conditions can develop within just a few days after vaccination and have primarily occurred within 14 days. They have been observed more often after the second vaccination, and more often in younger males. Available data suggest that the course of myocarditis and pericarditis following vaccination is not different from myocarditis or pericarditis in general. From post-marketing experience very rare adverse reactions of myocarditis and pericarditis, Rarecases of acute peripheral facial paralysis; uncommon incidence of insomnia, hyperhidrosis and night sweats, dizziness common incidence of vomiting, very common diarrhoea and unknown incidence (wcan not be estimated from available data) anaphylaxis, of paraesthesia, hypoaesthesia and erythema multiforme, extensive swelling of vaccinated limb, facial swelling (in vaccine recipients with a history of injection of dermatological fillers) and heavy menstrual bleeding(most case appeared to be non-serious and temporary in nature) have been identified after post-marketing experience.Anxiety-related reactions, including vasovagal reactions (syncope), hyperventilation or stress‐related reactions (e. g. dizziness, palpitations, increases in heart rate, alterations in blood pressure,paresthesia, hypoesthesia and sweating) may occur in association with the vaccination process itself. Stress-related reactions are temporary and resolve on their own. Individuals should be advised to bring symptoms to the attention of the vaccination provider for evaluation. It is important that precautions are in place to avoid injury from fainting. • Vaccination should be postponed in individuals suffering from acute severe febrile illness or acute infection. The presence of a minor infection and/or low-grade fever should not delay vaccination. • As with other intramuscular injections, the vaccine should be given with caution in individuals receiving anticoagulant therapy or those with thrombocytopenia or any coagulation disorder (such as haemophilia) because bleeding or bruising may occur following an intramuscular administration in these individuals. • The efficacy, safety and immunogenicity of the vaccine has not been assessed in immunocompromised individuals, including those receiving immunosuppressant therapy. The efficacy of COMIRNATY, COMIRNATY Original/Omicron BA.1 or COMIRNATY Original/Omicron BA.4-5 may be lower in immunosuppressed individuals. • As with any vaccine, vaccination with COMIRNATY, COMIRNATY Original/Omicron BA.1 or COMIRNATY Original/Omicron BA.4-5 may not protect all vaccine recipients. Individuals may not be fully protected until 7 days after their second dose of the vaccine. • Adverse reactions observed during clinical studies and identified after post authorization experience are listed below according to the following frequency categories: Very common (≥ 1/10), Common (≥ 1/100 to < 1/10), Uncommon (≥ 1/1,000 to < 1/100), Rare (≥ 1/10,000 to < 1/1,000), Very rare (< 1/10,000), • Very common side effects: injection site pain, injection site swelling, , headache, muscle pain, chills, joint pain, diarrhea, fever, chills, fatigue • Common side effects: injection site redness, nausea, vomiting • Uncommon side effects: enlarged lymph nodes (more frequently observed after the booster dose), feeling unwell, arm pain, insomnia, dizziness, injection site itching, allergic reactions such as rash,itching, urticaria or angioedema, feeling weak or lack of energy/sleepy, decreased appetite, excessive sweating, night sweats • Rare side effects: temporary one-sided facial drooping • Very rare side effects: inflammation of the heart muscle (myocarditis) or inflammation of the lining outside the heart (pericarditis), which can result in breathlessness, palpitations or chest pain. • Not known indicence (cannot be estimated from the available data): anaphylaxis, extensive swelling of vaccinated limbs; facial swelling, pins andneedles/tingling, reduced sense of touch or sensation, a skin reaction that causes red spots or patches on the skin, heavy menstrual bleeding • A large amount of observational data from pregnant women vaccinated with the initially approved COMIRNATY vaccine during the second and third trimester have not shown an increase in adverse pregnancy outcomes. While data on pregnancy outcomes following vaccination during the first trimester are presently limited, no increased risk for miscarriage has been seen. COMIRNATY can be used during pregnancy. No effects on the breast-fed newborn/infant are anticipated since the systemic exposure of breast-feeding woman to the initially approved COMIRNATY vaccine is negligible. Observational data from women who were breast- feeding after vaccination have not shown a risk for adverse effects in breast-fed newborns/infants. COMIRNATY can be used during breast-feeding. • No data are available yet regarding the use of COMIRNATY Original/Omicron BA.1 or COMIRNATY Original/Omicron BA.4-5 during pregnancy. Since differences between products are confined to the spike protein sequence, and there are no clinically meaningful differences in reactogenicity between those COMIRNATY variant adapted vaccines that have been clinically evaluated, COMIRNATY Original/Omicron BA.1 or COMIRNATY Original/Omicron BA.4-5 can be used during pregnancy. • No data are available yet regarding the use of COMIRNATY Original/Omicron BA.1 or COMIRNATY Original/Omicron BA.4-5 during breast-feeding. Observational data from women who were breast-feeding after vaccination with the initially approved COMIRNATY vaccine have not shown a risk for adverse effects in breast-fed newborns/infants. COMIRNATY Original/Omicron BA.1 or COMIRNATY Original/Omicron BA.4-5 can be used during breast-feeding • Interactions with other medicinal products or concomitant administration of COMIRNATY, COMIRNATY Original/Omicron BA.1 or COMIRNATY Original/Omicron BA.4-5 with other vaccines has not been studied. • Animal studies with COMIRNATY Original do not indicate direct or indirect harmful effects with respect to reproductive toxici ty. • In an analysis of Study 3 (Phase 2/3), 1,776 infants (1,178 Comirnaty 3 mcg and 598 placebo) were 6 to 23 months of age. The most frequent adverse reactions in infants 6 to 23 months of age that received any primary course dose included irritability (> 60%), drowsiness (> 40%), decreased appetite (> 30%), tenderness at the injection site (> 20%), injection site redness and fever (> 10%). • The most frequent adverse reactions in children 2 to 4 years of age that received any primary course dose included pain at injection site and fatigue (> 40%), injection site redness and fever (> 10%). • The overall safety profile of Comirnaty in participants 5 to 11 years of age was similar to that seen in participants 16 years of age and older. The most frequent adverse reactions in children 5 to 11 years of age that received 2 doses were injection si te pain (> 80%), fatigue (> 50%), headache (> 30%), injection site redness and swelling (≥ 20%), myalgia, chills, and diarrhoea (> 10%). • The overall safety profile for the booster dose was similar to that seen after the primary course. The most frequent adverse reactions in children 5 to 11 years of age were injection site pain (> 70%), fatigue (> 40%), headache (> 30%), myalgia, chills, injection site redness and swelling (> 10%) • The overall safety profile of Comirnaty in adolescents 12 to 15 years of age was similar to that seen in participants 16 years of age and older. The most frequent adverse reactions in adolescents 12 to 15 years of age that received 2 doses were injection site pain (> 90%), fatigue and headache (> 70%), myalgia and chills (> 40%), arthralgia and pyrexia (> 20%) • The most frequent adverse reactions in participants 16 years of age and older that received 2 doses were injection site pain (> 80%), fatigue (> 60%), headache (> 50%), myalgia (> 40%), chills (> 30%), arthralgia (> 20%), pyrexia and injection site swel ling (> 10%) and were usually mild or moderate in intensity and resolved within a few days after vaccination. A slightly lower frequency of reactogenicity events was associated with greater age. • The safety of a COMIRNATY Original/Omicron BA.1 booster dose in individuals from 18 to ≤ 55 years of age is extrapolated from safety data from a subset of 315 adults 18 to ≤ 55 years of age who received a booster (fourth dose) of Omicron BA.1 30 µg (monovalent) after completing 3 doses of COMIRNATY. The most frequent adverse reactions in these participants 18 to ≤ 55 years of age were injection site pain (> 70%), fatigue (> 60%), headache (> 40%), myalgia (> 30%), chills (> 30%) and arthralgia (> 20%). • In a subset from Study 4 ( Phase 3) , 305 adults > 55 years of age who had completed 3 doses of COMIRNATY, received a booster of COMIRNATY Original/Omicron BA.1 after receiving Dose 3. The overall safety profile for the COMIRNATY Original/Omicron BA.1 booster (fourth dose) was similar to that seen after the COMIRNATY booster (third dose). The most frequent adverse reactions in participants greater than 55 years of age were injection site pain (> 50%), fatigue (> 40%), headache (> 30%), myalgia (> 20%), chills and arthralgia (> 10%). No new adverse reactions were identified for COMIRNATY Original/Omicron BA.1. • The safety of a booster dose of COMIRNATY Original/Omicron BA.4-5 is inferred from safety data for a booster dose of COMIRNATY Original/Omicron BA.1 in individuals 18 years of age and older, as well as for a booster dose of COMIRNATY Original in individuals 5 years of age and older. • The duration of protection afforded by the vaccine is unknown as it is still being determined by ongoing clinical trials. As with any vaccine, vaccination with Comirnaty Original/Omicron BA.1 or COMIRNATY Original/Omicron BA.4-5 may not protect all vaccine recipients • For complete information on the safety of COMIRNATY, COMIRNATY Original/Omicron BA.1 and COMIRNATY Original/Omicron BA.4-5, always make reference to the approved Summary of Product Characteristics and Package Leaflet available in all the languages of the European Union on the EMA website. The black equilateral triangle ▼ denotes that additional monitoring is required to capture any adverse reactions. This will allow quick identification of new safety information. Individuals can help by reporting any side effects they may get. Side effects can be reported to EudraVigilance or directly to BioNTech using email medinfo@biontech.de, telephone +49 6131 9084 0, or via the website www.biontech.de 3 Safety Information

It is also authorized as a third primary series dose to individuals 12 years of age and older who have certain kinds of immunocompromise • The COVID-19 vaccine is FDA authorized under Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) for use in individuals 6 months and older to provide: • the first 2 doses of the 3-dose primary series for children 6 months through 4 years of age. • a 2-dose primary series to individuals 5 years through 11 years of age • a third primary series dose to individuals 5 years and older with certain kinds of immunocompromise Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine, Bivalent (Original and Omicron BA.4/BA.5) • Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine, Bivalent (Original and Omicron BA.4/BA.5) is FDA-authorized under Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) to prevent COVID-19 as: • the third dose of the 3-dose primary series following 2 doses of the monovalent* Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine in children 6 months through 4 years of age; or • a single booster dose in children 6 months through 4 years of age at least 2 months after completion of primary vaccination with 3 doses of the monovalent Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine; or • a single booster dose at least 2 months after completion of either primary vaccination with any authorized or approved COVID-19 vaccine or receipt of the most recent booster dose with any authorized or approved monovalent COVID-19 vaccine in individuals 5 years of age and older. EMERGENCY USE AUTHORIZATION Emergency uses of the vaccines have not been approved or licensed by FDA but have been authorized by FDA under an Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) to prevent Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) in individuals aged 6 months and older for the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine and 5 y ears and older for the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine, Bivalent. The emergency uses are only authorized for the duration of the declaration that circumstances exist justifying the authorization of emergency use of the medical product under Section 564(b)(1) of the FD&C Act unless the declaration is terminated or authorization revoked sooner. IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine, Bivalent (Original and Omicron BA.4/BA.5), COMIRNATY® (COVID-19 Vaccine, mRNA) and Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine • Do not administer Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine to individuals with known history of a severe allergic reaction (e.g., anaphylaxis) to any component of the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine or the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine, Bivalent. • Warnings: • Management of Acute Allergic Reactions: Appropriate medical treatment used to manage immediate allergic reactions must be immediately available in the event an acute anaphylactic reaction occurs following administration of Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine or the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine, Bivalent. • Monitor Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine recipients for the occurrence of immediate adverse reactions according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) guidelines (https://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/covid-19/clinicalconsiderati ons/managing-anaphylaxis.html) • Myocarditis and Pericarditis: Postmarketing safety data with Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine or the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine, Bivalent are relevant because these vaccines are manufactured using the same process. • Postmarketing data with authorized or approved Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine or the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine, Bivalent, demonstrate increased risks of myocarditis and pericarditis, particularly within the first week following receipt of the second primary series dose or first booster dose, with most booster doses likely administered at least 5 months after completing primary vaccination. For the Pfizer -BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine, the observed risk is higher among adolescent males and adult males under 40 years of age than among females and older males, and the observed risk is highest in males 12 through 17 years of age. Although some cases required intensive care support, available data from short-term follow-up suggest that most individuals have had resolution of symptoms with conservative management. Information is not yet available about potential long-term sequelae. The CDC has published considerations related to myocarditis and pericarditis after vaccination, including for vaccination of individuals with a history of myocarditis or pericarditis (https://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/covi d-19/cli nical-consi derations /myocarditis.html). • Syncope • Syncope (fainting) may occur in association with administration of injectable vaccines, in particular in adolescents. Procedures should be in place to avoid injury from fainting. • Altered Immunocompetence • Immunocompromised persons, including individuals receiving immunosuppressant therapy, may have a diminished immune response to the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine or the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine, Bivalent. • Limitation of Effectiveness • Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine or the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine, Bivalent may not protect all vaccine recipients. • Adverse reactions reported with the vaccine include: • Adverse Reactions in Clinical Trials • Adverse reactions following administration of a booster dose of the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine or the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine, Bivalent that have been reported in clinical trials include injection site pain, fatigue, headache, muscle pain, chills, joint pain, injection site swelling, fever, injection site redness, lymphadenopathy, nausea, malaise, pain in extremity, rash, decreased appetite, vomiting, diarrhea (see Full EUA Prescribing Information). • Adverse Reactions Identified in Post Authorization Experience • Severe allergic reactions, including anaphylaxis, and other hypersensitivity reactions (e.g., rash, pruritus, urticaria, angioedema), diarrhea, vomiting, pain in extremity (arm), syncope, and dizziness have been reported following administration of the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine. • Myocarditis and pericarditis have been reported following administration of the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine or the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine, Bivalent. • Additional adverse reactions, some of which may be serious, may become apparent with post-authorization use of the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine or the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine, Bivalent. • Use with Other Vaccines • There is no information on the co-administration of the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine or the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine, Bivalent, with other vaccines. 4 Safety Information
