Dear Fellow
Shareholders:
As I re ect on the past year, I am proud to share
the remarkable progress and signi cant growth
Halozyme achieved in 2024. This year has been
a testament to our unyielding commitment
to advancing our innovative drug delivery
solutions for patients and delivering exceptional
value to our shareholders.
TOUCHING LIVES AND REINVENTING
THE PATIENT EXPERIENCE
We are incredibly proud to share that an estimated
one million patients have now received drugs
delivered subcutaneously with ENHANZE . This
milestone is not just a number; it represents one million
lives potentially positively impacted by our proprietary
drug delivery technology. Each patient who bene ts
from ENHANZE is a demonstration of our commitment
to improving the patient treatment experience and
potentially outcomes. The broad adoption and use
has also established an unsurpassed safety database,
providing invaluable insights to inform regulators and
new partners.
RECORD-BREAKING FINANCIAL
PERFORMANCE
In 2024, we achieved a signi cant milestone by
exceeding $1 billion in total revenue for the rst time,
representing 22% growth over the prior year. Our 2024
royalty revenue increased 27% year-over-year to $571
million, driven by continued strong growth of DARZALEX FASPRO and PHEGSO , and growing momentum
from VYVGART HYTRULO. Through diligent expense
oversight and management, net income increased

ADVANCING OUR
PATIENT-CENTRIC MISSION AND
GROWING OUR PORTFOLIO
At the foundation of our success is an organization that
champions our patient-centric mission. Together, as One
Team, we made signi cant advancements seeking to
improve the lives of patients battling diseases such as
cancer, autoimmune disease, HIV, and neurodegenerative
disorders.
We now have nine approved partner products with ENHANZE , including four products or new indications with
ENHANZE receiving regulatory approval in a major region
throughout 2024, including VYVGART HYTRULO for Chronic In ammatory Demyelinating Polyneuropathy (CIDP),
TECENTRIQ HYBREZA , OCREVUS ZUNOVO and Opdivo
Qvantiq . In addition, current partners nominated ve
new ENHANZE targets for future advancement into the
clinic for subcutaneous (SC) development.
As the inventor of the use of hyaluronidases for large volume subcutaneous drug delivery, we are proud that subcutaneous delivery with ENHANZE of our partners innovative products can not only improve the patient treatment
experience through reduced treatment times, it also has
been demonstrated to reduce Health Care Practitioner
resource utilization and cost to the system. In 2024, we also
announced the availability to license our modi ed hyaluronidase patents for companies who cannot or do not
wish to license ENHANZE and who are utilizing or planning
to utilize our pioneering intellectual property.
FINANCIAL GROWTH
AND OUTLOOK
ROBUST CAPITAL
ALLOCATION STRATEGY
In 2024, Halozyme launched our third $750 million share
repurchase program, executing a $250 million accelerated share repurchase, underscoring our con dence
in our nancial strength and revenue durability. Since
the inception of the rst share repurchase program
in 2019, we have returned $1.55 billion in share repurchases, an average of approximately $250 million a
year. As disciplined stewards of free cash ow, we will
continue to evaluate share repurchase opportunities
that offer a compelling return, in addition to other
capital deployment approaches.
In 2025, we project total revenue of $1,150 million to
$1,225 million, representing year-over-year growth of
13% to 21%, adjusted EBITDA of $755 million to $805
million, representing year-over-year growth of 19% to
27% and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share of $4.95
to $5.35, representing year-over-year growth of 17% to
26%.
From 2024 to 2028, we project royalty revenue, adjusted EBITDA and non-GAAP earnings per share will
more than double while total revenue comes close to
doubling, increasing to $1.7 to $1.9 billion by 2028.
The momentum and opportunity we have across our
business gives us con dence that we are rmly on
track to deliver another record year in 2025 and meet
our targets this year and beyond.

treatment burden for patients treated with ENHANZE , improving patient outcomes and lowering healthcare system costs,
partner development programs and potential approvals of partnered products and additional opportunities for licensing
the Company s Mdase patents. These forward-looking statements are typically, but not always, identi ed through use of the
words believe, enable, may, will, could, intends, estimate, project , anticipate, plan, predict, probable, potential, possible, should, continue, and other words of similar meaning and involve risk and uncertainties
that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements. Actual results could differ
materially from the expectations contained in these forward-looking statements as a result of several factors, including
unexpected levels of revenues, expenditures and costs, unexpected delays in the execution of the Company s share repurchase program or other potential capital allocation strategies, unexpected results or delays in the development, regulatory
review or commercialization of the Company s partnered or proprietary products, and unexpected patient experiences or
outcomes. These and other factors that may result in differences are discussed in greater detail in the Company s most recently led Annual Report on Form 10-K led with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Except as required by law, the

their respective owners.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures: In addition to disclosing nancial measures prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles
( GAAP ), these materials contain certain non-GAAP nancial measures. The Company reports non-GAAP diluted earnings per share, non-GAAP diluted shares,
earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization ( EBITDA ), Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin and expectations of those measures in addition to,
and not as a substitute for, or superior to, nancial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP diluted earnings per share excludes share-based
compensation expense, amortization of debt discount, intangible asset amortization, one-time changes, if any, such as changes in contingent liabilities, inventory adjustments, impairment charges, and certain adjustments to income tax expense The Company calculates non-GAAP diluted shares excluding the dilutive
impact of convertible notes which is used in calculating non-GAAP diluted earnings per share. EBITDA excludes from earnings interest, taxes, depreciation and
amortization. The Company calculates adjusted EBITDA by excluding one-time items, if any, such as changes in contingent liabilities, inventory adjustments and
impairment charges. The Company uses Non-GAAP nancial information in assessing what it believes is a meaningful and comparable set of nancial performance measures to evaluate operating trends, as well as in establishing portions of our performance-based incentive compensation programs. The Company
does not provide reconciliations for forward-looking adjusted measures to GAAP due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying certain amounts that
are necessary for such reconciliation, including adjustments that could be made for changes in contingent liabilities, share based compensation expense and the
effects of any discrete income tax items. For the same reasons, the Company is unable to address the probable signi cance of the unavailable information. The
Company provides non-GAAP nancial measures that it believes will be achieved, however it cannot accurately predict all of the components of the adjusted
calculations and the U.S. GAAP measures may be materially different than the non-GAAP measures. Reconciliations between GAAP and non-GAAP nancial
measures are included in these materials.
