1. Corporate Information
CureVac N.V. (CureVac or CV or the Company) is the parent company of CureVac Group (Group) and, along with its subsidiaries, is a global biopharmaceutical company developing a new class of transformative medicines based on the messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) that has the potential to improve the lives of people.
Following a comprehensive operational assessment in 2023 and the 2024 GSK Agreement (refer to Note 3.1. for further information), we have implemented in 2024 an organizational restructuring to focus our resources on mRNA opportunities in oncology, infectious diseases and other selected areas of substantial unmet medical need. The change in strategy included an approximately 30% headcount reduction, streamlined our structures across most areas of the Company and resulted in a change in the activities of the organization towards research and development. Subsequent to this change "Costs of sales" include only costs of product sales or costs to fulfill other performance obligations under the Group's license and collaboration agreements. Prior to the change in strategy, cost of sales additionally included costs related to the Group's manufacturing organization. Such costs, subsequent to the change in strategy, are recognized as "Research and Development Expenses".
The Company is incorporated in the Netherlands and is registered in the commercial register at the Netherlands Chamber of Commerce under 77798031. The Company's registered headquarters is Friedrich-Miescher-Strasse 15, 72076 T bingen, Germany. Dievini Hopp BioTech holding GmbH & Co. KG (dievini), which is an investment company dedicated to the support of companies in health and life sciences, is the largest shareholder of CureVac. Together with its related parties, dievini has held shares and voting rights in CureVac of appr. 37 % during that period. dievini is thus considered to be the de facto parent of the Group. Dietmar Hopp, Daniel Hopp and Oliver Hopp are the ultimate controlling persons (of the main shareholders) of dievini, and, therefore, control the voting and investment decisions of dievini.
2. Basis of preparation

On June 29, 2024, CureVac and Glaxosmithkline Biologicals SA (GSK) entered into a new Licensing Agreement (2024 GSK Agreement) to amend and restate their existing collaboration agreements (CLA1 and CLA2). Under the agreement, CureVac granted GSK a worldwide, non-transferable, royalty-free, sublicensable, exclusive license to use the CureVac licensed intellectual property (IP) for the development and manufacture of the GSK products, as well as a worldwide, royalty-bearing, sublicensable exclusive license to use the CureVac licensed IP for the commercialization of the GSK products. CureVac identified one performance obligation in granting of licenses, whereas the licenses are accounted for as a right to use CureVac's IP, and one in activities related to the transition and wind down of the GSK program. The new Licensing Agreement replaces all previous financial considerations from the prior collaboration agreements between CureVac and GSK. In the three months ended March 31, 2025, revenue consisted of EUR 306k recognized under the 2024 GSK Agreement.
Prior to the 2024 GSK Agreement, CureVac entered into two collaborations with GSK, CLA1 and CLA2, wherein GSK and CureVac have developed mRNA vaccine candidates for infectious diseases including seasonal influenza, COVID-19 and avian influenza. Under the previous CLA1 and CLA2 agreements, CureVac recognized revenue over time for the combined performance obligation where CureVac grants its customer a license which was bundled with research and development services relating to the technology. The group accounted for this as a single obligation overtime. The upfront payment, attributable to the IP license, was recognized straight-line from the effective date of the collaboration agreement through to the agreed estimated submission date for authority approval. The second performance obligation, only applicable to CLA 1, consisted of research and development project work which was recognized over time. In the three months ended March 31, 2024, revenue consisted of EUR 8,895k recognized under both collaboration agreements with GSK.
The Group has received upfront and milestone payments which were initially deferred and are subsequently recognized as revenue as the Group renders services over the performance period. Below is a summary of such payments and the related revenues recognized:

Amortization and depreciation ( 1,028 ) -
Other ( 333 ) -
Total ( 41,690 ) ( 875 )
For the three months ended March 31, 2025, cost of sales decreased significantly in comparison to the corresponding period in 2024. This change was primarily attributable to the changed corporate strategy (associated with the 2024 GSK Agreement), resulting to a change in the activities of the Group towards R&D. Accordingly, the costs of the manufacturing organization subsequent to this change are recognized as R&D expenses rather than cost of sales. Third-party services for the three months period ended March 31, 2024, included the increase of a CMO (contract manufacturing organization) provision (refer to Note 6 for further information).
3.3 Research and development expenses
R&D expenses consist of the following:

Maintenance and lease ( 2,021 ) ( 2,466 )
Other ( 201 ) ( 574 )
Total ( 27,825 ) ( 37,593 )
During the three months ended March 31, 2025, research and development expenses increased in comparison to the same period of 2024. As described above, the costs of the Company's manufacturing organization are recognized as R&D expenses rather than cost of sales following the change in strategy. Consequently, personnel costs, among other costs categories, increased compared to the same period of 2024. In addition, research and development expenses increased in comparison to the same period of 2024 due to increased expenses related to the IP litigations.
3.4 General and administrative expenses

During the three months ended March 31, 2025, general and administrative expenses decreased in comparison to the same period of 2024 due to decreased personnel expenses related to the implemented workforce reduction as part of the strategic restructuring in 2024.

On February 24, 2025, the Group awarded 284,909 options to the Supervisory Board members and 2,461,018 Options to the Executive Board and various key employees. The grant was made under the terms of the long-term incentive plan (LTIP) put in place
by CureVac N.V. Options will be settled in shares of CureVac N.V. A Monte Carlo simulation has been used to measure the fair value at the grant date. The inputs used in the measurement of the fair value at grant date were as follows:
Weighted average fair value per option EUR 1.54
Weighted average share price (10-days VWAP before grant date) EUR 3.34
Exercise price (USD 3.48 ) EUR 3.34
Expected volatility (%) 70.0 %
Expected life (years) 3.51
Risk-free interest rate (%) 4.21 %
No options were exercised within the three months ended March 31, 2025.
6. Other liabilities and provisions
During the three months ended March 31, 2025, the decrease of EUR 1,373k in other liabilities and provisions (current and non-current) was primarily due to the usage of restructuring provisions in an amount of EUR 1,259k recorded as of December 31, 2024, mainly for severance payments related to the strategic restructuring of the organization in 2024.
The corresponding period in 2024 was affected by the Group's involvement in disputes with former contract manufacturing organizations (CMO) in connection with the adjustment of the Group's external European manufacturing network after the withdrawal of the EMA dossier for CureVac's vaccine candidate, CVnCoV. In April 2022, Celonic Deutschland GmbH & Co.KG initiated arbitration proceedings according to the procedural rules of the German Arbitration Institute against CureVac also requesting payments based on a terminated agreement. The proceedings were decided by final arbitral award in May 2024. The arbitration tribunal granted part of Celonic's claims (approx. 65%) and rejected part of them (approx. 35%). The award exceeded the amount previously provisioned leading to an additional charge of EUR 17,000k recorded in cost of sales for the three months ended March 31, 2024.
The income tax expense for the three months ended March 31, 2025, of EUR 429k was primarily attributable to deferred tax expenses of CureVac N.V. In addition to the tax expense recorded in the statement of operations and other comprehensive loss, an amount of EUR 1,122k was credited in equity for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The credit in equity results from the recognition of deferred tax assets for loss carryforwards, which itself originated from expenses for transaction costs previously recorded in equity.
Income taxes for the three months ended March 31, 2025, were calculated based on estimated annual effective income tax rates on ordinary income before tax adjusted by the tax effect of any discrete items. For the three months ended March 31, 2025, the plan tax rate for CureVac N.V. was approximately 30%. The effective tax rate considers the impact on current tax expenses, the usage of loss carryforwards and management's assessment of the requirements in IAS 12.
8. Earnings per share
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the Company's consolidated net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding in the fiscal period.
The weighted average number of common shares outstanding (basic) for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2025 was 224,349,604 and 225,150,339 respectively.
Diluted earnings per share is calculated using CureVac's weighted-average outstanding common shares including the dilutive effect of share-based awards as determined under the treasury stock method. The average market price is computed using the closing daily market prices for the period during which the options were outstanding. In periods in which the Company reports net losses, share-based payment awards are excluded from the calculation of earnings per share as their inclusion would have an antidilutive effect. Then, diluted net loss per common share is the same as basic net loss per common share.
Share options and RSUs of 722,095 and 7,199,489 were excluded from the computation of diluted weighted average number of shares for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2025, respectively, because their effect would have been antidilutive.
9. Related party disclosures
Parent and ultimate controlling party
Dievini Hopp BioTech holding GmbH & Co, KG (dievini), which is an investment company dedicated to the support of companies in health and life sciences, was the largest shareholder of CureVac. Together with its related parties, dievini has held shares and voting rights in CureVac of approximately 37% during the last twelve months, dievini is thus the de facto parent of the Group. Dietmar Hopp, Daniel Hopp and Oliver Hopp are the ultimate controlling persons (of the main shareholders) of dievini, and, therefore, control the voting and investment decisions of dievini.
The total amount of transactions with dievini Hopp BioTech holding GmbH & Co. KG or entities controlled by them had no significant impact on our unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to the details disclosed in Note 17 to our audited consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 20-F as of and for the year ended December 31, 2024.
