Forward Looking Statement

This presentation contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Any statement describing Acumen's goals, expectations, financial or other projections, intentions or beliefs is a forward- looking statement and should be considered an at-risk statement. Words such as "believes," "expects," "anticipates," "could," "should," "would," "seeks," "aims," "plans," "potential," "will," "milestone" and similar expressions are intended to identify

forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements contain these identifying words. Forward-looking statements include statements concerning: Acumen's business; the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, target engagement and other clinical measures associated with Acumen's product candidate, ACU193, including its performance against other antibodies. These statements are based upon the current beliefs and expectations of Acumen management, and are subject to certain factors, risks and uncertainties, particularly those inherent in the process of discovering, developing and commercializing safe and effective human therapeutics. Such risks may be amplified by the impacts of geopolitical events and macroeconomic conditions, such as rising inflation and interest rates, supply disruptions and uncertainty of credit and financial

markets. These and other risks concerning Acumen's programs are described in additional detail in Acumen's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), including in Acumen's most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, and in subsequent filings with the SEC, including Acumen's most recent Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Copies of these and other documents are available from Acumen. Additional information will be made available in other filings that Acumen makes from time to time with the SEC. These forward-looking statements speak only as of the date hereof, and Acumen expressly

disclaims any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statement, except as otherwise required by law, whether, as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Clear ACU193 Concentration Target-Engagement Profile in the CSF

  • Clear concentration- response profile in CSF
  • These lumbar samples were taken while drug levels were falling, so they represent the lowest target engagement levels
    (something like "trough levels"); within dosing interval target engagement will be higher
  • These results motivated the development of a PK/PD model for ACU193 effect on target engagement in the CSF
