The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements and notes to those statements and other financial information appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, filed with the SEC on March 10, 2026 (the "2025 Form 10-K"). In addition to historical information, the following discussion and other parts of this Quarterly Report contain forward-looking information that involves risks and uncertainties. SIGA’s actual results could differ materially from those anticipated by such forward-looking statements due to a number of factors. See the factors set forth under the heading “Forward-Looking Statements” at the end of this Item 2, and in Item 1A. “Risk Factors” of the 2025 Form 10-K.
Overview
SIGA Technologies, Inc. (“SIGA” or the “Company”) is a commercial-stage pharmaceutical company. The Company sells its lead product, the oral formulation of TPOXX® (“oral TPOXX®,” also known as "tecovirimat," "Tecovirimat-SIGA," or "TEPOXX (tecovirimat)" in certain international markets), to the U.S. Government and international governments (including government affiliated entities). In certain international markets, the Company may sell TPOXX® through a distributor. Additionally, the Company sells the intravenous formulation of TPOXX® ("IV TPOXX®") to the U.S. Government.
TPOXX® is an antiviral drug for the treatment of human smallpox disease caused by variola virus. On July 13, 2018, the United States Food & Drug Administration (“FDA”) approved oral TPOXX® for the treatment of smallpox. The Company has been delivering oral TPOXX® to the U.S. Strategic National Stockpile ("Strategic Stockpile") since 2013.
On May 18, 2022, the FDA approved IV TPOXX® for the treatment of smallpox.
In addition to being approved by the FDA, oral TPOXX® (tecovirimat) has received regulatory approval from the European Medicines Agency ("EMA"), Health Canada, the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency ("MHRA") of the United Kingdom, and the Japanese Pharmaceuticals and Medical Devices Agency ("PMDA"). The EMA and MHRA have approved oral TPOXX® for the treatment of smallpox, cowpox, and vaccinia complications following vaccination against smallpox. PDMA has approved oral TPOXX® for the treatment of smallpox, monkeypox ("mpox"), cowpox, and vaccinia complications following vaccination against smallpox, and Health Canada has approved oral TPOXX® for the treatment of smallpox.
TPOXX® was authorized under “exceptional circumstances” by the EMA and the MHRA, under the brand name Tecovirimat-SIGA. These regulators granted marketing authorizations under “exceptional circumstances” because it was not possible to obtain complete efficacy and safety information about the product due to the rarity of smallpox and other orthopoxviruses and because ethical considerations prevented conducting the necessary clinical studies. The Tecovirimat-SIGA marketing authorizations under “exceptional circumstances” are subject to certain specific obligations to gather additional data post-approval to help confirm the product’s safety and efficacy. All “exceptional circumstances” marketing authorizations are subject to annual reassessments that consider whether data generated pursuant to the specific obligations continue to confirm its positive benefit-risk profile. These annual reassessments determine whether the product’s marketing authorization should be maintained, changed, suspended, or withdrawn based on its benefit-risk profile.
On July 24, 2025, the EMA’s Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use ("CHMP") closed its third annual reassessment for Tecovirimat-SIGA and initiated a referral procedure for the product following questions over its effectiveness in the treatment of mpox. These questions were raised following receipt of results from certain non-SIGA sponsored clinical trials evaluating tecovirimat as a potential mpox treatment including the PALM007 and STOMP clinical trials. In the referral procedure, CHMP reviewed all available data on the safety and efficacy of Tecovirimat-SIGA for all its authorized indications in order to make a recommendation to the European Commission whether the marketing authorization should be maintained, modified, suspended or withdrawn. On March 27, 2026, the CHMP issued its opinion following the conclusion of its review. CHMP confirmed the positive benefit-risk balance of Tecovirimat-SIGA as a treatment for smallpox, cowpox and vaccinia complications, and recommended, based on the results of the mpox clinical trials, that the product no longer be used for the treatment of mpox, and on May 29, 2026, the European Commission adopted the opinion of the CHMP. In April 2026, the MHRA requested SIGA align the Tecovirimat-SIGA label in the U.K. with the outcome of the referral procedure.
With respect to the regulatory approvals by the EMA, PMDA, MHRA and Health Canada, oral tecovirimat represents the same formulation approved by the FDA in July 2018 under the brand name TPOXX®.
In connection with a potential FDA label expansion of oral TPOXX® for an indication covering smallpox post-exposure prophylaxis (“PEP”), the Company has completed an immunogenicity trial and an expanded safety trial. The timing of a potential submission of a supplemental New Drug Application to the FDA (“Supplemental NDA”) for a smallpox PEP indication for oral TPOXX® will be based on the results of ongoing sample analyses from the immunogenicity trial; the Company is currently targeting a Supplemental NDA submission in the first half of 2027.
Macroeconomic Environment
Future macroeconomic volatility, including changes to and uncertainty regarding tariffs and trade policies, could cause cost increases resulting in an adverse effect on the Company’s operating results. The Company’s supply chain was designed to lessen the impact of macroeconomic volatility such as through development of a U.S. domestic supply chain including U.S. production of API and finished product, and minimal reliance on ex-U.S. components for API and oral TPOXX®.
With respect to IV TPOXX®, tariff activity or other trading restrictions involving the U.S. and Europe may materially increase raw material costs for IV TPOXX® and, in turn, may materially increase IV TPOXX® overall manufacturing costs.

Procurement Contracts with the U.S. Government
19C BARDA Contract
On September 10, 2018, the Company entered into a contract with the U.S. Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority ("BARDA") pursuant to which SIGA agreed to deliver up to 1,488,000 courses of oral TPOXX® to the Strategic Stockpile, and to manufacture and deliver to the Strategic Stockpile, or store as vendor-managed inventory, up to 212,000 courses of IV TPOXX®. In October 2023, the contract was modified so that a course of IV TPOXX® was redefined within the contract from being 14 vials to being 28 vials; as such, the 19C BARDA Contract currently specifies 106,000 courses of IV TPOXX® (for the same payment amount as originally specified). In addition to the delivery of TPOXX® courses, the contract includes funding from BARDA for a range of activities, including: advanced development of IV TPOXX®, post-marketing activities for oral and IV TPOXX®, development of a pediatric formulation, support for manufacturing activities, and procurement activities. On April 8, 2025, total payments contemplated under the contract with BARDA were increased by $14.3 million to add funding for activities supporting manufacturing. On June 3, 2025, total payments contemplated under the contract with BARDA were increased by $13.2 million in connection with the development of the pediatric formulation of TPOXX®. As of June 30, 2026, the contract with BARDA (as amended, modified, or supplemented from time to time, the "19C BARDA Contract") contemplates up to approximately $630 million of payments, of which approximately $79.2 million of payments are included within the base period of performance, approximately $545.2 million of payments are related to exercised options and up to approximately $5.6 million of payments are currently specified as unexercised options. BARDA may choose in its sole discretion when, or whether, to exercise any of the unexercised options. The period of performance for options is up to ten years from the date of entry into the 19C BARDA Contract and such options could be exercised at any time during the contract term.
The base period of performance specifies potential payments of approximately $79.2 million for the following activities: payments of approximately $11.1 million for the delivery of approximately 35,700 courses of oral TPOXX® to the Strategic Stockpile; payments of $8.0 million for the manufacture of 10,000 courses (as currently defined within the contract as being 28 vials) of final drug product of IV TPOXX® ("IV FDP"), of which $3.2 million of payments are related to the manufacture of bulk drug substance ("IV BDS") to be used in the manufacture of IV FDP; payments of approximately $59.5 million to fund reimbursed activities; and payments of approximately $0.6 million for supportive procurement activities. As of June 30, 2026, the Company had received $11.1 million for the delivery of approximately 35,700 courses of oral TPOXX® to the Strategic Stockpile, $3.2 million for the manufacture of IV BDS, $4.8 million for the delivery of IV FDP to the Strategic Stockpile and $37.4 million for other base period activities. IV BDS has been used for the manufacture of courses of IV FDP.
The options that have been exercised as of June 30, 2026, provide for payments up to approximately $545.2 million. As of June 30, 2026, there are exercised options for the following activities: payments up to $450.2 million for the manufacture and delivery of up to 1.5 million courses of oral TPOXX®; payments up to $76.8 million for the manufacture of courses of IV FDP; payments of up to approximately $3.6 million to fund post-marketing activities for IV TPOXX®; and payments of up to $14.6 million for funding of post-marketing activities for oral TPOXX®. As of June 30, 2026, a cumulative total of $450.2 million of oral TPOXX® has been delivered to the Strategic Stockpile and accepted; a cumulative total of $76.8 million of IV FDP has been delivered to the Strategic Stockpile and accepted (IV BDS that had been set aside and recorded as deferred revenue was recognized as revenue when the IV FDP, containing IV BDS, was delivered); and the Company has been cumulatively reimbursed $13.0 million in connection with post-marketing activities for oral and IV TPOXX®.
Unexercised options specify potential payments up to approximately $5.6 million in total (if all such options are exercised), all of which relates to supportive activities that we currently do not expect to be required.
The options related to IV TPOXX® were divided into two primary manufacturing steps. There were options related to the manufacture of bulk drug substance (“IV BDS Options”), and there were corresponding options (for the same number of IV courses) for the manufacture of final drug product (“IV FDP Options”). BARDA had the sole discretion to choose to exercise any, all, or none of these options. The 19C BARDA Contract included: three separate IV BDS Options, each providing for the bulk drug substance equivalent of 32,000 courses (as currently defined within the contract) of IV TPOXX®; and three separate IV FDP Options, each providing for 32,000 courses of final drug product of IV TPOXX®. BARDA had the sole discretion as to whether to simultaneously exercise IV BDS Options and IV FDP Options, or whether to exercise options at different points in time (or alternatively, to only exercise the IV BDS Option but not the IV FDP Option). To date, BARDA has exercised all three IV BDS options and all three IV FDP options. The Company estimates that sales of the IV formulation under this contract (under current terms), would have a gross margin (sales less cost of sales, as a percentage of sales) that is less than 40%.

U.S. Department of Defense Procurement Contracts
Since 2022, the Company has received three procurement contracts from the DoD, totaling $28 million in value, mostly in connection with the manufacture and delivery of oral TPOXX®. All deliveries specified under these contracts have been fulfilled.
International Sales Activity
In the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company recognized $13.0 million of international sales. In the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company recognized $5.8 million of international sales consisting of a delivery of oral TPOXX® to one country. There was no revenue recognized in connection with international contracts during the three months ended June 30, 2025.
International Commercial Agreements
MENA License Agreement
In March 2026, the Company entered into an exclusive license and distribution agreement with Hikma MENA FZE (“Hikma”) that gives Hikma the right to register and commercialize oral TPOXX® in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company will be the sole manufacturer of tecovirimat and will supply finished product to Hikma.
Meridian Agreement
Under the terms of the current International Promotion Agreement, which was amended on March 27, 2024, and effective June 1, 2024, and further amended on August 30, 2024, the Company had primary responsibility for the advertising, promotion and sale of oral TPOXX® in all geographic regions. Meridian had limited, non-exclusive rights to advertise, promote, offer for sale and sell oral TPOXX® in the European Economic Area, Australia, Japan, Switzerland, the United Kingdom and the Association of Southeast Asian Nations and its member states (collectively, the “Current Territory”). Meridian also performed non-promotional activities under specified contracts with third parties entered into prior to June 1, 2024, that provided for the sale of oral TPOXX® in the Current Territory. The International Promotion Agreement entitled Meridian to receive a fee equal to a high single digit percentage of collected proceeds (whether collected by Meridian or the Company), net of certain expenses, of sales of oral TPOXX® in the Current Territory in the field of use specified in the International Promotion Agreement. The International Promotion Agreement had a fixed term that expired on May 31, 2026.
Under the terms of the original International Promotion Agreement (“Pre-amendment International Promotion Agreement”), which had an initial term that expired on May 31, 2024, Meridian had been granted exclusive rights to market, advertise, promote, offer for sale, or sell oral TPOXX® in a field of use specified in the International Promotion Agreement in all geographic regions except for the United States (the “Territory”), and Meridian agreed not to commercialize any competing product, as defined in the Pre-amendment International Promotion Agreement, in the specified field of use in the Territory. Under the Pre-amendment International Promotion Agreement, as well as the current International Promotion Agreement, SIGA has always retained ownership, intellectual property, distribution and supply rights and regulatory responsibilities in connection with TPOXX®, and, in the United States market, also retained sales and marketing rights with respect to oral TPOXX®. SIGA’s consent is required prior to the entry by Meridian into any sales arrangement pursuant to the International Promotion Agreement.
Sales to international customers pursuant to the Pre-amendment International Promotion Agreement were invoiced and collected by Meridian, and such collections were remitted, less Meridian’s fees, to the Company under a quarterly process specified in the Pre-amendment International Promotion Agreement; and Meridian was entitled to a specified percentage of the collected proceeds of sales of oral TPOXX®, net of certain expenses, for calendar years in which customer collected amounts net of such expenses were less than or equal to a specified threshold, and to a higher specified percentage of such collected net proceeds for calendar years in which such net collected amounts exceeded the specified threshold. Subsequent to June 1, 2024, only specified procurement contracts for the Current Territory entered into prior to June 1, 2024, continue to involve Meridian invoicing and collecting proceeds, and retaining a fee pursuant to the International Promotion Agreement.
Mpox
In connection with the 2022 response to a global mpox outbreak, a series of observational and randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trials were initiated to assess the safety and efficacy of TPOXX® in participants with mpox. The purpose of these randomized clinical trials was to seek to collect data on the potential benefits of using TPOXX® as an antiviral treatment for active mpox disease. As of June 30, 2026, three of the randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trials reported topline results: a randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trial in the Democratic Republic of the Congo ("DRC") known as PALM 007 (Tecovirimat for Treatment of Monkeypox Virus - NCT05559099), which was funded and sponsored by the National Institutes of Health's (NIH) National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID); the Study of Tecovirimat for Human Mpox Virus (STOMP) clinical trial (NCT05534984), which was a randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind study also sponsored and funded by NIAID to evaluate the safety and efficacy of tecovirimat for the treatment of people with laboratory-confirmed or presumptive mpox disease that included enrollees from Argentina, Brazil, Japan, Mexico, Peru, Thailand, and the United States; and the UNITY clinical trial (Assessment of the Efficacy and Safety of Tecovirimat in Patients With Monkeypox Virus Disease - NCT NCT05597735), which was funded and sponsored by ANRS-Emerging Infectious Diseases, which included enrollees from Switzerland, Brazil, and Argentina. The PALM 007 study did not meet its primary endpoint of a statistically significant improvement in time to lesion resolution within 28 days post-randomization for patients in the DRC with mpox who received TPOXX® compared to patients who received placebo. Some improvement versus placebo was observed in patients receiving TPOXX® whose symptoms began five days or fewer before randomization and patients with severe or grave disease, defined by the World Health Organization (WHO) as having 100 or more skin lesions, however the significance of these data has not been established. Similarly, in the STOMP study, tecovirimat did not meet its primary endpoint of a statistically significant improvement in time to lesion resolution for adults with mild to moderate mpox and a low risk of developing severe disease. Additional analyses of subgroups, secondary and exploratory endpoints is ongoing in each of these studies. Topline data from the UNITY study, which was presented at a medical conference, also showed that the study did not meet its primary endpoint of a statistically significant improvement in time to lesion resolution for patients with mpox who received TPOXX® compared to patients who received placebo. In all three studies, TPOXX® exhibited a safety profile comparable to placebo. These safety results are consistent with prior studies and further support the strong safety profile that has been observed with tecovirimat over the past 15 years.
Two other randomized clinical trials, Platinum-CAN (Canada) and EPOXI (EU), which were started in response to the global mpox outbreak, are closed to enrollment and expected to yield similar results, given the design similarities across these trials.

Critical Accounting Estimates
The methods, estimates and judgments we use in applying our accounting policies have a significant impact on the results we report in our condensed consolidated financial statements, which we discuss under the heading “Results of Operations” following this section of our Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. Some of our accounting policies require us to make difficult and subjective judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates of matters that are inherently uncertain. Information regarding our critical accounting policies and estimates appears in Part II, Item 7, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of our 2025 Form 10-K. Our most critical accounting estimate is revenue recognition over time.
Results of Operations
The U.S. tariffs implemented in 2025 and continuing in 2026, and subsequently implemented retaliatory tariffs, did not materially impact our second quarter or six months ended June 30, 2026 results. While the long-term effects remain uncertain, we continue to closely monitor the evolving tariff policy environment which presents a mix of impacts, with the potential for higher product and operating costs.
Three Months Ended June 30, 2026 and 2025
For the three months ended June 30, 2026, revenues from product sales and supportive services were $37.9 million. Such revenues include $24.4 million of IV TPOXX® sales to the U.S. Government under the 19C BARDA Contract, $13.0 million of sales to two international countries, as well as $0.5 million of reimbursed supportive services in connection with a manufacturing technology transfer. For the three months ended June 30, 2025, revenues from product sales and supportive services were $79.1 million. Such revenues include $53.3 million of oral TPOXX® and $25.8 million of IV TPOXX® sales to the U.S. Government under the 19C BARDA contract.
Revenues from research and development activities for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, were $3.1 million and $2.0 million, respectively. The revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2026, were earned in connection with performance of research and development activities under the 19C BARDA Contract. The revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2025, were mostly earned in connection with performance of research and development activities under the 19C BARDA Contract. The increase of $1.1 million of revenue is primarily related to an increase in billable activities under the 19C BARDA Contract.
Cost of sales and supportive services for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 were $17.6 million and $25.6 million, respectively. Such costs in 2026 were primarily associated with costs for the manufacture and delivery of courses of IV TPOXX® to the U.S. Government under the 19C BARDA Contract, costs for the manufacture and delivery of oral TPOXX® to international countries as well as the costs of supportive services in connection with a manufacturing technology transfer. Such costs in 2025 were associated with the manufacture and delivery of courses of oral and IV TPOXX® to the U.S. Government under the 19C BARDA contract, as well as the write off of $0.9 million of inventory.
Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 were $5.1 million and $5.5 million, respectively. The decrease of $0.4 million primarily reflects lower corporate expenses across a range of functions and activities, including consulting activities, professional services, and international business development activities, partially offset by higher compensation costs.
Research and development (“R&D”) expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 were $4.4 million for both periods. While the total R&D expenses remained relatively flat, we incurred increased direct vendor related costs associated with the 19C BARDA Contract, as well as increased consulting costs, offset by lower self-funded research and development activities, compensation costs, and regulatory costs.
Other income, net for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 were $0.9 million and $1.6 million, respectively. These amounts reflect interest income earned on cash and cash equivalents.
For the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, we recorded a pre-tax income of $14.9 million and $47.3 million, respectively, and a corresponding income tax provision of $2.4 million and $11.8 million, respectively. The effective tax rates during the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 were 16.1% and 24.9%, respectively. Our effective tax rates for the periods ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 differ from the statutory rate primarily as a result of currently forecasted losses for the full year, state taxes and non-deductible executive compensation under Internal Revenue Code Section 162(m). With respect to currently forecasted losses for the full year, such forecast is based on orders received to date and is subject to update upon the receipt of new procurement orders.

Such revenues include $25.6 million of IV TPOXX® sales to the U.S. Government under the 19C BARDA Contract, $13.0 million of sales to two international countries, as well as $2.8 million of reimbursed supportive services in connection with a manufacturing technology transfer. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, revenues from product sales and supportive services were $84.9 million. Such revenues include $53.3 million of oral TPOXX® and $25.8 million of IV TPOXX® sales to the U.S. Government under the 19C BARDA contract and $5.8 million of oral TPOXX® sales to one international country.
Revenues from research and development activities for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, were $5.8 million and $3.2 million, respectively. The revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2026, were earned in connection with performance of research and development activities under the 19C BARDA Contract. The revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2025, were mostly earned in connection with performance of research and development activities under the 19C BARDA Contract. The increase of $2.6 million of revenue is primarily related to an increase in billable activities under the 19C BARDA Contract.
Cost of sales and supportive services for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 were $20.5 million and $25.7 million, respectively. Such costs in 2026 were primarily associated with the costs for the manufacture and delivery of courses of IV TPOXX® to the U.S. Government under the 19C BARDA Contract, costs for the manufacture and delivery of oral TPOXX® to international countries as well as the costs of supportive services in connection with a manufacturing technology transfer. Such costs in 2025 were associated with the manufacture and delivery of courses of oral and IV TPOXX® to the U.S. Government under the 19C BARDA contract.
Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 were $9.8 million and $11.2 million, respectively. The decrease of $1.4 million primarily reflects lower corporate expenses across a range of functions and activities, including consulting activities, professional services, and international business development activities, partially offset by higher compensation costs.
Research and development (“R&D”) expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 were $8.3 million and $7.9 million, respectively, reflecting an increase of approximately $0.4 million. The expense increase is primarily attributable to an increase in direct vendor related costs under the 19C BARDA Contract and costs incurred in connection with the EMA referral procedure that was focused on mpox, partially offset by lower self-funded research and development activities, compensation costs and regulatory activities.
Other income, net for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 were $2.2 million and $3.3 million, respectively. These amounts reflect interest income earned on cash and cash equivalents.
For the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, we recorded a pre-tax income of $10.8 million and $46.7 million, respectively, and a corresponding income tax provision of $1.8 million and $11.6 million, respectively. The effective tax rates during the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 were 16.6% and 24.9%, respectively. Our effective tax rates for the periods ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 differ from the statutory rate primarily as a result of currently forecasted losses for the full year, state taxes and non-deductible executive compensation under Internal Revenue Code Section 162(m). With respect to currently forecasted losses for the full year, such forecast is based on orders received to date and is subject to update upon the receipt of new procurement orders.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of June 30, 2026, we had $117.6 million in cash and cash equivalents, compared with $155.0 million at December 31, 2025. We believe that our liquidity and capital resources will be sufficient to meet our anticipated requirements for at least the next twelve months from the issuance of these financial statements.
Operating Activities
We prepare our condensed consolidated statement of cash flows using the indirect method. Under this method, we reconcile net income to cash flows from operating activities by adjusting net income for those items that impact net income but may not result in actual cash receipts or payments during the period. These reconciling items include but are not limited to stock-based compensation, deferred income taxes, and changes in the condensed consolidated balance sheet for working capital from the beginning to the end of the period.
Net cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 was $6.5 million and $70.1 million, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, the net cash provided by operating activities primarily relates to the receipt of approximately $11 million from sales of IV TPOXX® from the U.S. Government, $13 million from the sales of oral TPOXX® to international countries, and $2 million from investment income, partially offset by the use of cash (net of research development revenues) for customary operating activities and inventory. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, the receipt of approximately $80 million from sales of TPOXX® to the U.S. Government and an international customer, $20 million from sales of TPOXX® from accounts receivable at December 31, 2024, as well as the receipt of investment income on cash and cash equivalents, was partially offset by the payment of approximately $8 million of income taxes as well as for the use of cash (net of research development revenues) for inventory and customary operating activities.
Investing Activities
For the six months ended June 30, 2026, there were no cash-related investing activities; acquisitions of equipment during the six months ended June 30, 2026 were not billed as of June 30, 2026. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, there was minimal (less than $25,000) cash-related investing activities.
Financing Activities
Cash used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2026 was $43.9 million, which was mostly attributable to the payment of a special cash dividend of approximately $43.3 million as well as the payments of tax obligations in connection with stock issued to employees. Cash used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2025 was $43.1 million, which was mostly attributable to the payment of a special cash dividend of approximately $42.9 million.
Future Cash Requirements
As of June 30, 2026, we had outstanding purchase orders associated with manufacturing obligations in the aggregate amount of approximately $1.3 million.

The words “may,” “continue,” “estimate,” “intend,” “plan,” “will,” “believe,” “project,” “expect,” “seek,” “anticipate,” “could,” “should,” “target,” “goal,” “potential” and similar expressions may identify forward-looking statements, but the absence of these words does not necessarily mean that a statement is not forward-looking. Such forward-looking statements are subject to various known and unknown risks and uncertainties, and SIGA cautions you that any forward-looking information provided by or on behalf of SIGA is not a guarantee of future performance. SIGA’s actual results could differ materially from those anticipated by such forward-looking statements due to a number of factors, some of which are beyond SIGA’s control, including, but not limited to, (i) the risk that SIGA is not able to secure in a timely manner new contracts with the U.S. Government to substantially maintain or expand the U.S. Government stockpile of TPOXX®, (ii) the risk that SIGA may not complete performance under the 19C BARDA Contract (the "BARDA Contract"), with the U.S. Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority ("BARDA") on schedule or in accordance with contractual terms, (iii) the risk that the nascent international biodefense market does not develop to a degree that allows SIGA to continue to successfully market TPOXX® internationally, (iv) the risk that potential products, including potential alternative uses or formulations of TPOXX® that appear promising to SIGA or its collaborators, cannot be shown to be efficacious or safe in subsequent pre-clinical or clinical trials, (v) the risk that target timing for deliveries of product to customers, and the recognition of related revenues, are delayed or adversely impacted by the actions, or inaction, of contract manufacturing organizations, or other vendors, within the supply chain, or due to coordination activities between the customer and supply chain vendors, (vi) the risk that SIGA or its collaborators will not obtain or maintain appropriate or necessary governmental approvals to market these or other potential products or uses, (vii) the risk that SIGA may not be able to secure or enforce sufficient legal rights in its products, including intellectual property protection, (viii) the risk that any challenge to SIGA’s patent and other property rights, if adversely determined, could affect SIGA’s business and, even if determined favorably, could be costly, (ix) the risk that regulatory requirements applicable to SIGA’s products may result in the need for further or additional testing or documentation that will delay or prevent SIGA from seeking, obtaining, or maintaining needed approvals to market these products, (x) the risk that the volatile and competitive nature of the biotechnology industry may hamper SIGA’s efforts to develop or market its products, (xi) the risk that changes in domestic or foreign economic and market conditions may affect SIGA’s ability to advance its research or may affect its products adversely, (xii) the effect of federal, state, and foreign regulation, including drug regulation and international trade regulation, on SIGA’s businesses, (xiii) the impacts of significant recent shifts in trade policies, including the imposition of tariffs, retaliatory tariff measures, and subsequent modifications or suspensions thereof, and market reactions to such policies and resulting trade disputes, (xiv) the risk of disruptions to SIGA’s supply chain for the manufacture of TPOXX®, causing delays in SIGA’s research and development activities, causing delays or the re-allocation of funding in connection with SIGA’s government contracts, or diverting the attention of government staff overseeing SIGA’s government contracts, (xv) risks associated with actions or uncertainties surrounding the debt ceiling, or the changes in the U.S. administration, and (xvi) the risk that the U.S. or foreign governments' responses (including inaction) to national or global economic conditions or infectious diseases, are ineffective and may adversely affect SIGA’s business, as well as the risks and uncertainties included in Item 1A “Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 and SIGA's subsequent filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
