Q: How does Halozyme plan to manage its capital allocation, particularly in terms of debt reduction and potential buybacks, following the Elektrofi acquisition? A: Helen Torley, CEO, mentioned that Halozyme is actively seeking opportunities similar to Elektrofi to optimize patient treatment experiences. Nicole Labrosse, CFO, added that the company expects to pay down debt quickly due to robust cash flows, while maintaining a balanced approach to capital allocation, including share repurchases and funding acquisitions.

Q: What is the awareness level of Elektrofi's technology among Halozyme's current ENHANZE partners, and what feedback has been received? A: Helen Torley, CEO, stated that while the deal hasn't closed, there is a good awareness of Elektrofi's Hypercon technology among partners. Feedback has been positive, especially from partners working with both companies, indicating strong support for potential collaborative opportunities.

A: Helen Torley, CEO, expressed confidence in securing a new ENHANZE deal this year, driven by ongoing discussions.

Q: How is Halozyme planning to maintain growth momentum into 2026, and could the current trajectory suggest exceeding previous 2026 guidance ranges?

Q: How does Halozyme conduct outreach for prospective partners between ENHANZE and Hypercon, and are these efforts parallel?
