Summary • Continued momentum demonstrated as company executes against business plan o AMZEEQ script trends have recovered and are growing on a week/week basis o Prescriber trends are robust and recent formulary addition strengthens coverage o FDA approval of ZILXI in rosacea complements our existing commercial infrastructure • FCD105 showed highly statistically significant improvement in disease burden versus vehicle foam for absolute change in inflammatory lesion count and IGA treatment success (IGA0/1) at Week 12. Numerical superiority was demonstrated between FCD105 and Vehicle for absolute change in non - inflammatory lesion counts at Week 12. o Numerical superiority of FCD105 over both 3% minocycline foam and 0.3% adapalene foam was observed across all endpoints with majority of comparisons being statistically significant • Treatment emergent adverse events were few in type and frequency; most were mild in severity and no serious adverse events were reported, and subject discontinuations due to a TEAE were low. • ≥93% of subjects receiving FCD105 had scores of 0 “none” or 1 “mild” for local skin tolerability assessments at Week 12. • Data is suggestive of a potential best - in - class treatment of moderate - to - severe acne vulgaris. 27
