Cash and Cash Equivalents

DBV continues to engage in productive dialogue with the FDA on the key elements of the VITESSE protocol. As previously disclosed, the Company will communicate key elements of the VITESSE trial design and projected timelines once this process has concluded.

Operating Income is primarily generated from DBV’s Research Tax Credit (French Crédit Impôt Recherche, or CIR) and from revenue recognized by DBV under its collaboration agreement with Nestlé Health Science. Operating income was $4.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $1.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The variation in operating income is primarily attributable to the revision of the revenue recognized under Nestlé’s collaboration agreement conducted as part of the existing contract, as the Company updated the measurement of progress of its Phase II APTITUDE milk-diagnostic tool clinical study.
