Evan Wang Key Message: We came away away from yesterday's Obesity Day in NYC with increased
evan.wang@guggenheimpartners.com confidence that MBX 4291 (GLP-1/GIP dual agonst) has the potential to achieve a 212 651 9756
competitive tolerability and weight loss profile with once-monthly dosing in MBX's 12-
Alana Lelo, Ph.D. week unblinded 4Q26 data release. Importantly, we confirmed that the full tolerability
alana.lelo@guggenheimpartners.com profile for 4291, including injection site reactions (ISR), raised no concerns. Early 212 518 9955 PoC for once-monthly MBX 4291 offers positive readthrough (again, albeit early) to the
Colleen Garvey, Ph.D. asset's 4Q26 update, justifying investment in the obesity PEP platform, with amycretin
colleen.garvey@guggenheimpartners.com (DC nominated) and triple G (DC nomination expected by mgmt in 3Q26) advancing to
617 859 4664 IND. We continue to believe 4291's 4Q26 update holds significant upside potential should
MBX's early data continue to perform in line with this initial result. Select details below.
