SAN DIEGO – November 6, 2025 – Crinetics Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Nasdaq: CRNX), a global pharmaceutical company focused on the discovery, development and commercialization of novel therapeutics for endocrine diseases and endocrine-related tumors, today reported financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2025.

"September 25, 2025 was a historic day for Crinetics with the approval of Palsonify for the treatment of people with acromegaly,” said Scott Struthers, Ph.D., Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Crinetics. “For years, acromegaly patients have endured significant challenges with existing therapies. Since approval, our team has executed seamlessly to get Palsonify to patients and the launch is off to a very good start. Healthcare providers both at pituitary centers and in the community have written prescriptions, and we are seeing uptake in patients switching from prior therapies and in those newly initiating medical therapy. With the approval milestone, we are now a fully integrated pharmaceutical company. Five clinical trials across our deep pipeline are advancing and our financial position remains robust. We are executing with speed and focus on our mission to bring life-changing treatments to the patients who need them most."

Third Quarter 2025 and Recent Highlights:

•PALSONIFY was approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) on September 25, 2025 for the first-line treatment of adults with acromegaly who had an inadequate response to surgery and/or for whom surgery is not an option. Crinetics’ field force has called on over 95% of the top priority healthcare provider targets. Additionally, approximately 95% of filled prescriptions are from switch patients and 5% are from naïve patients, reflecting the demographics of the acromegaly population. Payer reimbursement has not been a barrier to treatment, with approximately 50% of filled prescriptions reimbursed.

•Presented three abstracts from clinical development programs at North American Neuroendocrine Tumor Society Annual Meeting (NANETS 2025), highlighting neuroendocrine tumor research progress. Crinetics shared data showing investigator-assessed progression free survival rate of 74% following one year of treatment with paltusotine and details from the first-in-human study of the nonpeptide drug conjugate (NDC) candidate CRN09682 in patients with somatostatin receptor 2-expressing tumors.

Key Upcoming Milestones:

•Crinetics expects the first patients to randomize in the CAREFNDR Phase 3 trial of paltusotine in carcinoid syndrome in the fourth quarter of 2025.

•Crinetics is making continued progress on the development program for atumelnant across multiple trials. Crinetics expects the first patients to randomize in the CALM-CAH Phase 3 study in adults with congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) and the BALANCE-CAH Phase 2/3 study in pediatrics in the fourth quarter of 2025. Glucocorticoid reduction data from Cohort 4 of the Phase 2 study and 13-week data from the Phase 2 open-label extension study will be shared early in 2026.

•Planning, including regulatory interactions, for the next study of atumelnant in ACTH-dependent Cushing’s syndrome (ADCS) is underway. Initiation of the Phase 2/3 study is expected to begin in the first half of 2026.

•Crinetics expects the first patient to receive CRN09682 in the dose escalation phase of a Phase 1/2 study in the fourth quarter of 2025. This is the first candidate from the NDC platform and the study will include an

expansion phase for the treatment of metastatic or locally advanced SST2-positive neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) and other SST2-expressing solid tumors.

•Based on emerging data from Investigational New Drug (IND)-enabling studies, focus of the thyroid stimulating hormone receptor (TSHR) antagonist program has shifted to bringing forward an alternative candidate with a superior profile. There is also follow-up preclinical work needed on the IND-enabling studies for the SST3 program that will postpone its IND submission.

Third Quarter 2025 Financial Results:

•Revenues were $0.1 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2025. All revenues were derived from the paltusotine licensing agreement with Sanwa Kagaku Kenkyusho Co., Ltd. There were no revenues for the same period in 2024.

•Research and development expenses were $90.5 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2025, compared to $61.9 million for the same period in 2024. The increases were primarily attributable to an increase in personnel costs of $10.9 million and increased clinical and manufacturing activities costs of $10.2 million, driven by the advancement of our clinical programs and the expansion of our preclinical portfolio.

•Selling, general and administrative expenses were $52.3 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2025, compared to $25.9 million for the same period in 2024. The increases were primarily driven by an increase in personnel costs of $10.2 million primarily due to the increase in headcount and an increase in outside services costs of $12.0 million to support our overall growth and the commercial launch of PALSONIFY.

•Net loss for the quarter ended September 30, 2025, was $130.1 million, compared to a net loss of $76.8 million for the same period in 2024.

•Cash, cash equivalents, and investments totaled $1.1 billion as of September 30, 2025, compared to $1.4 billion as of December 31, 2024. Based on current projections, Crinetics expects that its cash, cash equivalents and investments will be sufficient to fund its current operating plan into 2029. For 2025, Crinetics continues to anticipate cash used in operations to be between $340 and $370 million.
