Strategic Growth Toward 2030

• Incyte’s long-term vision includes more than ten impactful product launches by 2030.
• Key candidates include povorcitinib, which is being developed for multiple indications and has significant market opportunities.
• For moderate-to-severe hidradenitis suppurativa alone, Phase 3 data is expected in the first half of 2025, targeting a $3 billion U.S. market with over 300,000 affected patients.
• The drug is also being studied for extensive nonsegmental vitiligo and prurigo nodularis, which are underserved conditions with high market potential. Phase 3 data for these indications are expected in 2026, and combined market opportunities will exceed $4 billion.
