Saint-Herblain (France), June 3, 2022Valneva SE (Nasdaq: VALN; Euronext Paris: VLA), a specialty vaccine company, today announced that its senior management will present and participate in 1-on-1 meetings with institutional investors at the Jefferies Healthcare Conference which will take place from June 8 to 10, 2022 in New York.

Valneva’s Chief Executive Officer Thomas Lingelbach and Chief Financial Officer Peter Bühler will notably discuss the Company’s late-stage vaccine candidates against Lyme disease (VLA15), chikungunya (VLA1553) and COVID-19 (VLA2001).

Valneva was recently granted Conditional Marketing Authorization in the United Kingdom for its inactivated COVID-19 vaccine candidate VLA2001[1] and filed a Marketing Authorization Application with the European Medicines in May 2022[2]. The Company also recently commenced the pre-submission process with the US Food and Drug Administration for its single-shot chikungunya vaccine candidate VLA1553 after reporting final positive pivotal Phase 3 results[3] and lot-to-lot data[4]. Additionally, in April 2022, Valneva and its partner Pfizer reported first positive pediatric results for their Lyme disease vaccine candidate VLA15[5]. These positive data build on the strong immunogenicity profile reported for adult participants (18-65 years old) in February 2022, and the two companies expect to proceed with a Phase 3 clinical trial in participants age 5-65, which is planned to start in the third quarter of 2022.

The fireside chat at the Jefferies conference will take place on June 9, 2022 at 11:30am EDT (17:30 CEST) and will be accessible live via the following link, https://wsw.com/webcast/jeff240/valn/1848225.
