-- European Partnership with Recordati Established to Maximize VAZKEPA® in Europe; Global Corporate Restructuring Implemented with Anticipated $70 Million in Operating Expense Savings Over Next 12 Months -- -- Q2 2025 Financial Performance Reflects Incremental Progress for VASCEPA®/VAZKEPA® in Ex-U.S. Markets, and Continued Stability in U.S. Market -- -- Cash Position Sufficient to Fund Company’s Future Growth Path -- DUBLIN and BRIDGEWATER, N.J., July 30, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Amarin Corporation plc (NASDAQ: AMRN) today announced financial and operational results for the second quarter of 2025. “The strategic actions taken in the second quarter – our partnership with Recordati to accelerate VAZKEPA® commercialization in Europe and the associated global restructuring to reduce operating expenses and cash burn for the future – are significant steps to increase value for shareholders,” said Aaron Berg, President & CEO, Amarin. “Operationally, our second quarter results reflect important progress in advancing the growth and impact of VASCEPA®/VAZKEPA® (icosapent ethyl) globally as well as our continued focus on operational efficiency and balance sheet management. The steps we have taken, combined with our performance during the quarter, position the Company for future growth, powered by our key strengths: VASCEPA/VAZKEPA, a product with proven science and significant growth potential globally; a global business with multiple efficient revenue streams; and significant financial assets, including nearly $300 million in cash and no debt. We continue to be committed to generating value from these assets and, at the same time, pursuing potential additional strategic opportunities. We are excited about the potential for this next chapter of the Amarin story and look forward to reporting on our continued progress in the future.” Recent Strategic Actions European Partnership with Recordati In June, the Company announced the signing of an exclusive long-term license and supply agreement with Recordati S.p.A. to commercialize VAZKEPA across 59 countries, focused in Europe. This strategic partnership agreement is a significant shift for the Company and builds on the substantial regulatory, pricing and reimbursement and early launch progress made by the Amarin team for VAZKEPA in Europe. With this transaction, Recordati and its experienced cardiovascular organization are well positioned to accelerate the breadth and pace of adoption of VAZKEPA for patients at risk of a cardiovascular event across this large market opportunity. Since establishing the partnership, both parties have been focused on a smooth and speedy commercial transition, which is expected to be largely completed by the end of 2025. Global Restructuring In direct response to establishing the European partnership with Recordati, the Company immediately initiated a global restructuring to drive an estimated $70 million in cost savings over the next 12 months in pursuit of further right-sizing the Company’s go-forward operating footprint. The vast majority of the anticipated cost savings are expected to be realized from the elimination of commercial roles in the Company’s European operations.

Looking ahead, and as a result of the recent steps we’ve taken, we expect accelerated in-market demand in Europe and decreased operating expenses to a level appropriate for our partnership-dominant business model, as well as, in the short term, slowing the cash decline experienced in previous periods. We are now on an accelerated path to achieving positive free cash flow in the future.” Q2 2025 Financial Performance Revenues ($ in millions)Q2 2025Q2 2024% ChangeProduct Revenue, net: U.S.$36.5$43.8-17%Europe$6.6$3.585%Rest-of-World (RoW)$3.5$0.2*Total Product Revenue, net$46.6$47.5-2%Licensing & Royalties$26.1$20.031%Total Net Revenue$72.7$67.58% * % Change is greater than +/- 100% Total Net Revenue: For Q2 2025, total net revenue increased $5.3 million, or 8%, compared with Q2 2024. The increase was primarily due to the up-front payment associated with licensing the European business to Recordati. Net Product Revenue: For Q2 2025, net product revenue decreased by $0.9 million, or 2%, compared with Q2 2024. The decrease was primarily due to reduced U.S. sales, offset almost entirely by increased demand in Europe and RoW markets. Additional insight is as follows: U.S.: All major exclusive accounts were retained through the end of the quarter and represent the vast majority of all the sales in this market segment.Europe: While the pace of commercialization remains steady yet comparatively early relative to the overall market opportunity, in-market demand continued to grow in every launch market, with revenues primarily driven by Spain and the UK, consistent with prior quarters. The European partnership with Recordati is expected to accelerate growth for VAZKEPA across the market.Rest of World (RoW): The pace of commercialization continues to gain momentum, evidenced by all partners across RoW markets experiencing increased in-market demand driven by a strategic focus on high-risk patients across many of these markets, while ongoing regulatory and market access efforts continued to advance across Southeast Asia. Licensing and Royalty Revenue: For Q2 2025, licensing and royalty revenue increased $6.1 million, or 31%, compared with Q2 2024. The increase was primarily due to recognition of the upfront payment as part of the European licensing and supply agreement with Recordati as well as increased royalty revenues from our partners’ in-market sales. The current period increases were offset by milestone payments related to obtaining cardiovascular risk reduction (CVRR) approval in China and full recognition of previously received partnership milestones. Operating Expenses1 ($ in millions) Q2 2025 Q2 2024 % Change COGS$22.4$24.7-9%SG&A$38.7$38.50%R&D$4.9$4.74%Restructuring$22.8 --* * % Change is greater than +/- 100% 1 Excluding $22.8 million of restructuring charges, Q2 2025 total operating expenses were $43.6 million. COGS: For Q2 2025, cost of goods sold decreased $2.3 million, or 9%, compared with Q2 2024. The decrease was primarily due to lower sales volumes during the quarter. Q2 2025 gross margin was $50.4 million, or 52%, versus $42.8 million or 48% for Q2 2024. SG&A: For Q2 2025, selling general and administrative expense increased $0.1 million, essentially flat compared with Q2 2024, reflecting continued disciplined management of spending commitments and priorities. R&D: For Q2 2025, research and development expense increased $0.2 million, or 4%, compared with Q2 2024. The increase was primarily due to ongoing data generation and medical affairs efforts to support regulatory processes. Restructuring: In Q2 2025, the Company recognized $22.8 million in restructuring charges related to the global reorganization immediately initiated in conjunction with the June 2025 announcement of the licensing agreement with Recordati. Overall, the Company will maintain adequate operating expense levels necessary to support the global VASCEPA/VAZKEPA brand and its partners, including expenses for medical affairs, research and regulatory requirements and other product-specific costs, as well as public company related costs. Additional Financial Information Net (Loss) Income: For Q2 2025, the Company reported a net loss of $14.1 million, or $0.03 loss per share, compared with net income of $1.5 million, or $0.00 earnings per share for Q2 2024. Cash: As of the end of Q2 2025, the Company reported aggregate cash and investments of $298.7 million. Debt: As of the end of Q2 2025, the Company remained debt free.

About VASCEPA®/VAZKEPA® (icosapent ethyl) Capsules VASCEPA (icosapent ethyl) capsules are the first prescription treatment approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) comprised solely of the active ingredient, icosapent ethyl (IPE), a unique form of eicosapentaenoic acid. VASCEPA was launched in the United States in January 2020 as the first drug approved by the U.S. FDA for treatment of the studied high-risk patients with persistent cardiovascular risk despite being on statin therapy. VASCEPA was initially launched in the United States in 2013 based on the drug’s initial FDA approved indication for use as an adjunct therapy to diet to reduce triglyceride levels in adult patients with severe (≥500 mg/dL) hypertriglyceridemia. Since launch, VASCEPA has been prescribed more than twenty-five million times. In addition to the United States, VASCEPA is approved and sold in Canada, China, Australia, Lebanon, the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Bahrain, and Kuwait. In Europe, in March 2021 marketing authorization was granted to icosapent ethyl in the European Union for the reduction of risk of cardiovascular events in patients at high cardiovascular risk, under the brand name VAZKEPA. In April 2021 marketing authorization for VAZKEPA (icosapent ethyl) was granted in Great Britain (applying to England, Scotland and Wales). VAZKEPA (icosapent ethyl) is currently approved and sold in Europe in Sweden, Finland, England/Wales, Spain, Netherlands, Scotland, Greece, Portugal, Italy, Denmark and Austria. United States Indications and Limitation of Use VASCEPA is indicated: As an adjunct to maximally tolerated statin therapy to reduce the risk of myocardial infarction, stroke, coronary revascularization and unstable angina requiring hospitalization in adult patients with elevated triglyceride (TG) levels (≥ 150 mg/dL) andestablished cardiovascular disease ordiabetes mellitus and two or more additional risk factors for cardiovascular disease.As an adjunct to diet to reduce TG levels in adult patients with severe (≥ 500 mg/dL) hypertriglyceridemia. The effect of VASCEPA on the risk for pancreatitis in patients with severe hypertriglyceridemia has not been determined. Important Safety Information VASCEPA is contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity (e.g., anaphylactic reaction) to VASCEPA or any of its components.VASCEPA was associated with an increased risk (3% vs 2%) of atrial fibrillation or atrial flutter requiring hospitalization in a double-blind, placebo-controlled trial. The incidence of atrial fibrillation was greater in patients with a previous history of atrial fibrillation or atrial flutter.It is not known whether patients with allergies to fish and/or shellfish are at an increased risk of an allergic reaction to VASCEPA. Patients with such allergies should discontinue VASCEPA if any reactions occur.VASCEPA was associated with an increased risk (12% vs 10%) of bleeding in a double-blind, placebo-controlled trial. The incidence of bleeding was greater in patients receiving concomitant antithrombotic medications, such as aspirin, clopidogrel or warfarin.Common adverse reactions in the cardiovascular outcomes trial (incidence ≥3% and ≥1% more frequent than placebo): musculoskeletal pain (4% vs 3%), peripheral edema (7% vs 5%), constipation (5% vs 4%), gout (4% vs 3%), and atrial fibrillation (5% vs 4%).Common adverse reactions in the hypertriglyceridemia trials (incidence >1% more frequent than placebo): arthralgia (2% vs 1%) and oropharyngeal pain (1% vs 0.3%).Adverse events may be reported by calling 1-855-VASCEPA or the FDA at 1-800-FDA-1088.Patients receiving VASCEPA and concomitant anticoagulants and/or anti-platelet agents should be monitored for bleeding.
