Forward Looking Statements Some of the
statements in this presentation constitute "forward looking statements" under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including, but not limited to, our development plans, potential approval of SER-109 by the FDA, the
potential number of patients who could be treated by SER-109, the ability of SER-109 to transform the treatment of CDI, the potential requirements by the FDA for additional safety data, the promise and potential impact of any of our microbiome
therapeutics or clinical trial data, the ability of our clinical trials and resulting data to support approval, the timing of clinical studies, and the potential benefits of Seres' collaborations. Such statements are subject to important
factors, risks and uncertainties, such as those discussed under the caption "Risk Factors" in the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed on July 28, 2020, and its other filings with the SEC, that may cause actual results to differ
materially from those expressed or implied by such forward looking statements. Any forward looking statements included herein represent our views as of today only. We may update these statements, but we disclaim any obligation to do so.

SER-109 ECOSPOR III Phase 3 Top-line
Study Results - Recurrent C. Difficile Infection
SER-109: First Ever Positive Pivotal
Study For Targeted Microbiome Therapeutic Candidate Primary endpoint met with substantial efficacy benefit observed Favorable safety profile observed We believe study can serve as efficacy basis for BLA submission Highly stat. sig. reduction in CDI
recurrence rate: 11.1%; p<0.001; 30.2% absolute deltaSER-109 vs. 41.3% placebo at 8 weeks SER-109 Number Needed to Treat (NNT) was approximately 3 No clinically meaningful imbalance in incidence of AEs between SER-109 and placebo arms SER-109
safety profile observed comparable to placebo Relative risk: 0.27 (95% CI=0.15 to 0.51) vs. placebo; superior to 0.833 bar communicated by FDA as threshold of potential for BLA submission with single study Potential to be a first-in-class therapy
Seres to seek FDA Breakthrough Therapy Designation meeting as soon as possible to discuss path to SER-109 BLA submission
ECOSPOR III Phase 3 Study Primary

Current CDI Treatment Options Are
Suboptimal Primary C. difficile infection: Recurrence in 25% of patients within 1 to 3 weeks of antibiotic completion Bezlotoxumab recommended only for those at high-risk for recurrence Recurrent infection: Retreatment with same drugs: lower
efficacy observed Unapproved fecal microbiota transplant (FMT): Unproven efficacy due to lack of controlled clinical trials Safety risks including transmission of infectious agents In July 2020, the largest U.S. provider of FMT quarantined supply,

FMT Safety Concerns Highlight The
Need For Improved, FDA-approved Treatment Options For C. Difficile Infection In contrast to FMT, SER-109 is comprised of a highly purified consortia of spore-based bacteria manufactured under GMP conditions to ensure product quality and consistency
Unique manufacturing process to inactivate potential pathogens Process inactivates many emerging potential pathogens where diagnostic assays may not yet be widely available, such as SARS-CoV-2
