NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

SEPTEMBER 30, 2016

Note 1. The Company

Cellectis S.A. (hereinafter “Cellectis” or “we”) is a limited liability company (“société anonyme”) registered and domiciled in Paris, France. We are a gene-editing company, employing our core proprietary technologies to develop products in the emerging field of immuno-oncology. Our product candidates, based on gene-edited T-cells that express chimeric antigen receptors, or CARs, seek to harness the power of the immune system to target and eradicate cancers. Our gene-editing technologies allow us to create allogeneic CAR T-cells, meaning they are derived from healthy donors rather than the patients themselves. In addition to our focus on immuno-oncology, we are exploring the use of our gene-editing technologies in other therapeutic applications, as well as to develop healthier food products for a growing population.

We view our operations and manage our business in two operating and reportable segments that are engaged in the following activities: (1) Therapeutics, which is focused on the development of products in the field of immuno-oncology and of novel therapies outside immuno-oncology to treat other human diseases; (2) Plants, which is focused on the development of new generation plant products in the field of agricultural biotechnology on our own or through alliances with other companies in the agricultural industry.

Note 2. Basis of presentation and statement of compliance

All financial information (unless indicated otherwise) is presented in thousands of euros.

2.1 Compliance with the IFRS accounting framework

IFRS include International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”), International Accounting Standards (“the IAS”), as well as the interpretations issued by the Standards Interpretation Committee (“the SIC”), and the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (“IFRIC”).

The Interim Consolidated Financial Statements as of and for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2016 have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting, as endorsed by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”).

The Interim Consolidated Financial Statements as of and for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2016 have been prepared using the same accounting policies and methods as those applied for the year ended December 31, 2015.

These Interim Consolidated Financial Statements as of and for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2016 were approved by our Board of Directors on November 22, 2016.

10

Cellectis reclassified certain expenses related to the year ended December 31, 2015 from SG&A expenses to R&D expenses in the fourth quarter of 2015. This reclassification is effective starting in 2015, and is due to the increased level of efforts towards our R&D activities in order to develop product candidates and work toward clinical phases. Starting in 2015, we classify personnel and other costs related to information technology, human resources, business development, legal, intellectual property and general management in Research and development expenses based on the time that employees spent contributing to research and development activities versus general and administrative activities. We approved the reclassification in Q4 2015 and assess the performance of the consolidated company based on this new classification.

2.2 Application of new or amended standards or new amendments

The following pronouncements and related amendments have been adopted by us from January 1, 2016 but had no significant impact on the Interim Consolidated Financial Statements:

• The Annual Improvements to IFRSs for the 2012-2014 Cycle.

• Disclosure Initiative (Amendments to IAS1)

• IFRS 9 Financial Instruments

2.3 Standards, interpretations and amendments issued but not yet effective

The following pronouncements and related amendments are applicable for first quarter accounting periods beginning after January 1, 2017. We do not anticipate that the adoption of these pronouncements and amendments will have a material impact on our results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

• Amendments to IAS 7 “Statement of Cash Flows”

• Amendments to IAS 12 “Income Taxes”

IFRS 15 “Revenue from Contracts” with Customers establishes a comprehensive framework for determining whether, how much and when revenue is recognized. It replaces existing revenue recognition guidance, including IAS 18 “Revenue”. IFRS 15 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2018, with early adoption permitted. We are assessing the potential impact on our consolidated financial statements resulting from the application of IFRS 15.

In January 2016, the IASB issued IFRS 16 “Leases”, which is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2019. This new standard aligns the accounting treatment of operating leases with that already applied to finance leases (i.e. recognition in the balance sheet of future lease payments and the associated rights of use).

Note 3. Consolidated entities

As at December 31, 2015 and for the nine months ended September 30, 2016, the consolidated group of companies (sometimes referred to as the “Group”) includes Cellectis S.A., Cellectis, Inc. and Calyxt, Inc. Cellectis, Inc. and Calyxt, Inc. are fully owned by Cellectis S.A.

11

Our Interim Consolidated Financial Statements for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 include the operations of Cellectis S.A.; our two French subsidiaries, Cellectis Bioresearch and Ectycell; our three U.S. subsidiaries, Calyxt, Inc., Cellectis, Inc. and Cellectis Bioresearch Inc. Non-controlling shareholders held a 24.5% interest in Cellectis Bioresearch, Cellectis Bioresearch Inc. and Ectycell until May 18, 2015.

The following internal reorganization was completed in 2015:

• Ectycell was merged into, and absorbed by Cellectis Bioresearch in August 2015 with retroactive effect as at January 1, 2015 for French tax purposes;

• Cellectis Bioresearch was merged into, and absorbed by, Cellectis S.A in December 2015 with retroactive effect as at January 1, 2015 for French tax purposes;

• Cellectis Bioresearch Inc. was merged into Cellectis Inc. in September 2015.

Note 4. Reportable segments

Reportable segments are identified as components of an enterprise that have discrete financial information available for evaluation by the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”), for purposes of performance assessment and resource allocation.

Cellectis’ CODM is composed of:

• The Chairman and Chief Executive Officer;

• The Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer;

• The Executive Vice President Corporate Development;

• The Chief Scientific Officer;

• The Chief Financial Officer;

• The Vice President Business Development;

• The General Counsel; and

• The Chief Executive Officer of Calyxt, Inc.

We view our operations and manage our business in two operating and reportable segments that are engaged in the following activities:

• Therapeutics: This segment is focused on the development of products in the field of immuno-oncology and of novel therapies outside immuno-oncology to treat other human diseases. This approach is based on our gene editing and Chimeric Antigen Receptors (“CARs”) technologies. All these activities are supported by Cellectis S.A. and Cellectis, Inc. The operations of Cellectis S.A., the parent company, are presented entirely in the Therapeutics segment which also comprises research and development, management and support functions.

• Plants: This segment is focused on applying our gene-editing technologies to develop new-generation plant products in the field of agricultural biotechnology through our own efforts or through alliances with other companies in the agricultural market. It corresponds to the activity of our U.S.-based subsidiary, Calyxt, Inc., which is based in New Brighton, Minnesota.

There are inter-segment transactions between the two reportable segments, including allocation of corporate general and administrative expenses by Cellectis S.A. to its subsidiaries and allocation of research and development expenses to the reportable segments.

These inter-segment transactions are generally priced based on provisions of service agreements signed between our legal entities, according to which services are to be allocated at cost plus a mark-up of between 4% and 10%, depending on the nature of the service. According to a cash pooling agreement with our subsidiaries, interest is allocated/paid to segments at 12-month Euribor plus 5%.

Information related to each reportable segment is set out below. Segment revenues and other income, Research and development expenses, Selling, general and administrative expenses, and Royalties and other operating income and expenses, and Operating income (loss) before tax (which does not include non-cash stock-based expense) are used by the CODM to measure performance. The CODM does not review any asset or liability information by segment or by region. The Operating income or loss before tax includes the impact of the operations between segments while the intra-segment operations are eliminated.

9.1 Current financial assets

Current financial assets that are measured at fair value through profit or loss in accordance with IAS 39 include the following:

• Financial assets including embedded derivatives for which Cellectis elected to designate at fair value through profit or loss;

• Financial assets managed on a fair value basis; and

• Derivative instruments that are not documented in hedging relationships.

IFRS 13 (Fair Value Measurement) requires counterparty and own credit risk to be taken into account when measuring the fair value of financial instruments. This risk is estimated on the basis of observable, publicly-available statistical data.

Current financial assets are measured at fair value through profit or loss and are classified as follows within the fair value hierarchy:

• Instruments classified under level 1 are measured with reference to quoted prices in active markets; they consist of notes with baskets of fixed income and diversified equity funds, and amount to €77.4 million of such current financial assets as of September 30, 2016;

• Instrument classified under level 2 are measured with reference to observable valuation inputs; they consist in zero premium collars and accumulators, and amount to €0.3 million of such current financial assets as of September 30, 2016.

Cash and cash equivalents are held for the purpose of meeting short-term cash commitments, rather than for investment or other purposes. Money market funds earn interest and are refundable overnight. Fixed bank deposits have fixed terms that are less than three months or are readily convertible to a known amount of cash.

* The plans pursuant to which Calyxt stock options are issued require the occurrence of an IPO or a “triggering event” as a condition for the exercise of vested stock options and, in some circumstances, as a condition to vesting. If the condition is expected to occur during the service period, then it is a non-market performance condition. A triggering event is designed as any transaction that would result in Cellectis losing control of Calyxt, Inc.

The Calyxt options issued on April 7, 2016 shall vest as follows:

C-Level; “VP” and Consultants

With respect to awards of stock options granted to executive-level officers, vice presidents and consultants of Calyxt:

• 20% of the total Number of Shares on April 7, 2016;

• 10% of the total Number of Shares on April 7, 2017;

• 5% of the total Number of Shares on the last day of each calendar quarter beginning from the second quarter 2017;

• 25% of additional vesting in case of triggering event or initial public offering; and

• 100% in the event of termination without cause or resignation for good reason in the case of a change of control.

Heads of department and Analysts

With respect to awards of stock options granted to employees designated as “head of” a department within Calyxt or as an analyst:

• 20% of the total Number of Shares on April 7, 2017;

• 10% of the total Number of Shares on April 7, 2018;

• 5% of the total Number of Shares on the last day of each calendar quarter beginning from the second quarter 2018; and

Item 2. Management’s Discussion & Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Overview

We are a pioneering gene-editing company, employing our core proprietary technologies to develop best-in-class products in the emerging field of immuno-oncology. Our product candidates, based on gene-edited T-cells that express chimeric antigen receptors, or CARs, seek to harness the power of the immune system to target and eradicate cancers. We believe that CAR-based immunotherapy is one of the most promising areas of cancer research, representing a new paradigm for cancer treatment. We are designing next-generation immunotherapies that are based on gene-edited CAR T-cells. Our gene-editing technologies allow us to create allogeneic CAR T-cells, meaning they are derived from healthy donors rather than the patients themselves. We believe that the allogeneic production of CAR T-cells will allow us to develop cost-effective, “off-the-shelf” products and are capable of being stored and distributed worldwide. Our gene-editing expertise also enables us to develop product candidates that feature additional safety and efficacy attributes, including control properties designed to prevent them from attacking healthy tissues, to enable them to tolerate standard oncology treatments, and to equip them to resist mechanisms that inhibit immune-system activity. In addition to our focus on immuno-oncology, we are exploring the use of our gene-editing technologies in other therapeutic applications, as well as to develop healthier food products for a growing population.

We currently conduct our operations through two business segments, Therapeutics and Plants. Our Therapeutics segment is focused on the development of products in the field of immuno-oncology and of novel products outside immuno-oncology to treat other human diseases. Our Plants segment focuses on applying our gene-editing technologies to develop new generation plant products in the field of agricultural biotechnology through its own efforts or through alliances with other companies in the agricultural market.

Since our inception in early 2000, we have devoted substantially all of our financial resources to research and development efforts. Our current research and development focuses primarily on our CAR T-cell immunotherapy product candidates, including preparing to conduct clinical studies of our product candidates, providing general and administrative support for these operations and protecting our intellectual property. In addition, by leveraging our plant-engineering platform and the transformative potential of gene editing, we aim to create food products with consumer health benefits, adaptations for climate change or nutritional enhancements that address the needs of a growing population. We do not have any products approved for sale and have not generated any revenues from immunotherapy or agricultural biotechnology product sales.

In February 2014, we entered into an alliance with Servier for the development of UCART19 and other product candidates directed at four additional molecular targets. In November 2015, we entered into an amendment to our initial collaboration agreement with Servier, which allowed for an early exercise of Servier’s option with respect to UCART19 and other product candidates. Pursuant to this amendment, Servier has exercised its option to acquire the exclusive worldwide rights to further develop and commercialize UCART19. In addition, Pfizer and Servier have announced that they have entered into an exclusive global license and collaboration agreement to co-develop and commercialize UCART19. In December 2015, we filed a CTA in the United Kingdom requesting approval to initiate a Phase 1 clinical trial on UCART19 in acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) which has been approved and is being conducted by Servier. In connection with the entry into the amendment to the collaboration agreement, Servier made an upfront payment of €35.6 million ($38.5 million), excluding taxes. As of December 31, 2015, Cellectis was eligible to receive up to €895 million ($974 million) in potential option exercise fees, development, clinical and sales milestones, in addition to royalties on sales and research and development costs reimbursements. During the three months ended June 30, 2016, collaboration revenue was recognized in relation to the achievement of two milestones under our collaboration agreement with Servier with respect of UCART19. The previously recognized milestone payments were received during the three months ended September 30, 2016. In September 2016, Cellectis entered into an agreement with Servier pursuant to which Cellectis will provide Servier with materials and GMP- and R&D-grade UCART19 products.

29

Our alliance with Pfizer, which commenced in June 2014, addresses the development of other CAR T-cell immunotherapies in the field of oncology. This strategic alliance is potentially worth up to $2.9 billion in payments by Pfizer to us, including an $80 million upfront payment and $2.8 billion in potential clinical and commercial milestone payments. In addition, we invoice research and development costs assigned to our projects in common with Pfizer. Pfizer also purchased 10% of our then-outstanding equity in connection with this collaboration for €25.8 million. We believe that both of these strategic transactions position us to compete in the promising field of immuno-oncology and add additional clinical and financial resources to our programs.

We have also entered into research and development alliances with each of Weill Cornell Medical College and The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center. Pursuant to these strategic alliances, we will collaborate with these two centers to accelerate the development of our lead product candidates UCART123, UCARTCS1, UCART22 and UCART38 in AML, BPDCN, multiple myeloma, B-cell and T-cell ALL.

In addition, in March 2016, we entered into a research collaboration and license agreement with MabQuest SA pertaining to the development of a new class of monoclonal antibodies targeting PD-1. The agreement included a collaboration phase funded by Cellectis for the joint pursuit of preclinical research on several candidate antibodies. Under the agreement, MabQuest granted an exclusive option to Cellectis to pursue the clinical development and commercialization of the selected antibody, and to obtain a worldwide exclusive rights over the family of PD-1 antagonist antibodies developed under the collaboration for all fields, and further potential derivatives of these antibodies. In October 2016, we decided not to exercise the option and therefore terminated the research collaboration and license agreement with MabQuest SA.

In addition to our cash generated by operations (including payments under our strategic alliances), we have funded our operations primarily through private and public offerings of our equity securities, grant revenues, payments received under intellectual property licenses, and reimbursements of research tax credits. Our ordinary shares have traded on the Alternext market of Euronext in Paris since February 7, 2007. From January 1, 2013 through December 31, 2014, we received €61.0 million through sales of equity and €73.7 million in payments made to us under our collaboration agreements with Pfizer and Servier. In March 2015, we completed our U.S. initial public offering of 5,500,000 American Depositary Shares on the Nasdaq Global Market for gross proceeds of $228.2 million. In 2015, we received €46.9 million in payments pursuant to the Pfizer and Servier collaborations and for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2016, we received €14.8 million of such payments.

Emerging Growth Company Status

As of June 30, 2016, we had a public float of greater than U.S. $700 million and will therefore no longer be considered an “emerging growth company” under the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act as of our Annual Report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2016. We will become a large accelerated filer as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act at December 31, 2016.

Financial Operations Overview

We have incurred net losses in nearly each year since our inception. Substantially all of our net losses resulted from costs incurred in connection with our development programs and from selling, general and administrative expenses associated with our operations. As we continue our intensive research and development programs, we expect to continue to incur significant expenses and may again incur operating losses in future periods. We anticipate that such expenses will increase substantially if and as we:

• continue the research and development of our immuno-oncology product candidates;

• continue the research and development of our agricultural product candidates;

• initiate clinical studies for, or additional pre-clinical development of, our immuno-oncology product candidates;

• multiply field trials of our agricultural product candidates;

32

• further develop and refine the manufacturing process for our immuno-oncology product candidates;

• change or add additional manufacturers or suppliers of biological materials;

• seek regulatory and marketing approvals for our product candidates, if any, that successfully complete development;

• establish a sales, marketing and distribution infrastructure to commercialize any products for which we may obtain marketing approval;

• seek to identify and validate additional product candidates;

• acquire or in-license other product candidates, technologies, germplasm or other biological material;

• make milestone or other payments under any in-license agreements;

• maintain, protect and expand our intellectual property portfolio;

• secure manufacturing arrangements for clinical and commercial production;

• seek to attract and retain new and existing skilled personnel;

• create additional infrastructure to support our operations as a public company; and

• experience any delays or encounter issues with any of the above.

We do not expect to generate material revenues from sales of our product candidates unless and until we successfully complete development of, and obtain marketing approval for, one or more of our product candidates, which we expect will take a number of years and is subject to significant uncertainty. Accordingly, we anticipate that we will need to raise additional capital prior to completing clinical development of any of our product candidates. Until such time that we can generate substantial revenues from sales of our product candidates, if ever, we expect to finance our operating activities through a combination of milestone payments received pursuant to our strategic alliances, equity offerings, debt financings, government or other third-party funding and collaborations, and licensing arrangements. However, we may be unable to raise additional funds or enter into such arrangements when needed on favorable terms, or at all, which would have a negative impact on our financial condition and could force us to delay, limit, reduce or terminate our development programs or commercialization efforts or grant to others rights to develop or market product candidates that we would otherwise prefer to develop and market ourselves. Failure to receive additional funding could cause us to cease operations, in part or in full.

Results of Operations

Comparisons for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2015 and 2016

Revenues: During the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2016, we recorded €23.4 million and €32.9 million, respectively, in revenues. The increase of €9.5 million primarily reflects an increase of €9.2 million in revenues under our collaboration agreement with Servier.

Other income: During the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2016, we recorded €3.8 million and €6.1 million, respectively, in other income. The increase of €2.2 million reflects an increase of €3.1 million in research tax credit, partly offset by a decrease of €0.9 million in research subsidies, resulting from the termination of related research programs.

Royalty expenses: During the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2016, we recorded royalty expenses of €1.2 million and €1.0 million, respectively.

Research and development expenses: For the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2016, research and development expenses increased by €15.8 million from €36.4 million in 2015 to €52.2 million in 2016, respectively. Personnel expenses increased by €8.4 million from €24.3 million in 2015 to €32.7 million in 2016, notably due to a €1.9 million increase in wages and salaries, and a €12.6 million increase in non-cash stock based compensation expense, partly offset by a €6.1 million decrease in social charges on stock option and free shares grants. Purchases and external expenses increased by €7.6 million from €11.0 million in 2015 to €18.6 million in 2016, due to increased expenses related to innovation and platform development, including payments to third parties participating in product development, purchases of biological raw materials and expenses associated with the use of laboratories and other facilities. Other expenses relate to continuing leasing and other commitments and amounted to €1.1 million in 2015 and €1.0 million in 2016.

Selling, general and administrative expenses: During the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2016, we recorded €19.1 million and €27.8 million, respectively, of selling, general and administrative expenses. The increase of €8.7 million primarily reflects (i) an increase of €7.4 million in personnel expenses from €14.0 million to €21.4 million, attributable, among other things, to an increase of €9.9 million of non-cash stock-based compensation expense, partly offset by a decrease of €3.0 million of social charges on stock options and free share grants, and (ii) an increase of €1.0 million in purchases and external expenses.

Other operating income: During the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2016, our other operating income amounted to €0.5 million and €0.4 million, respectively. Other operating income for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 included (i) a one-off tax reimbursement and (ii) reversals of provisions related to ordinary course personnel litigations and the settlement of a commercial litigation matter with a former supplier.

Redundancy plan: During the nine months ended September 30, 2015 we recorded net income of €0.3 million. This amount was null for the nine months ended September 30, 2016.

Other operating expenses: During the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2016, our other operating expenses amounted to €0.4 million and €0.2 million respectively, mainly reflecting changes in provisions for commercial litigation.

Financial gain (loss): Financial gain was €0.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 compared with financial loss of €6.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. The change in financial result was primarily attributable to the effect of exchange rate fluctuations on our U.S. dollar cash and cash equivalent accounts. During the nine-months ended September 30, 2016, we entered into financial derivative agreements (primarily zero premium collar and accumulator instruments) to mitigate the impact of currency exchange rate fluctuations on a portion of our cash and cash equivalent denominated in US dollars that we will need to convert into Euros over a certain period in the future.

Net income (loss): During the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2016, we recorded net losses of €28.6 million and €48.3 million, respectively. The change in net loss of €19.7 million was mainly due to (i) the €6.8 million change in financial result, (ii) a €22.4 million increase in non-cash stock-based compensation expense, partially offset by €9.0 decrease in social charges on stock options and free share grants.

Gain/Loss attributable to non-controlling interests: During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, we recognized a gain of €0.2 million attributable to non-controlling interests.

Information related to each of our reportable segments is set out below. Segment revenues and other income, Research and development expenses, Selling, general and administrative expenses, Royalties and other operating income and expenses, and Operating income/loss are used by the CODM to measure segment performance. Segment operating income includes the impact of the operations between separate segments, while the intra-segment operations are eliminated. The operations of Cellectis S.A. are presented entirely in the Therapeutics segment. We do not focus on any asset or liability information by segment or region to measure performance.

There are inter-segment transactions between the two reportable segments, including allocations of (i) corporate, general and administrative expenses and (ii) research and development expenses allocable to our subsidiaries. These inter-segment expenses are priced at cost, plus a mark-up of 4-10%, depending on the nature of the service.

Therapeutics segment

External revenues in our Therapeutics segment increased by €12.0 million, from €26.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 to €38.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. The increase was primarily due to an increase of €9.6 million in collaboration agreement revenues and higher research tax credit, in connection with higher research expenses. The increase in operating expenses of €21.0 million from the nine months ended September 30, 2015 to the nine months ended September 30, 2016 resulted primarily from higher personnel expenses, attributable, among other things, to the increase in non-cash stock-based compensation expenses, as well as the increase in external expenses for product development. Segment operating loss before tax increased by €9.0 million, from €27.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 to €36.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016.

Plants segment

External revenues in our Plants segment decreased by €0.3 million, from €0.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 to €0.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. The increase in operating expenses of €3.6 million from the nine months ended September 30, 2015 to the nine months ended September 30, 2016 resulted primarily from a significant increase in Calyxt, Inc. activities, as well as an increase of €0.7 million in non-cash stock-based compensation expenses. Segment operating loss before tax increased by €3.9 million from €2.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 to €5.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Introduction

We have incurred losses and cumulative negative cash flows from operations since our inception in 2000, and we anticipate that we will continue to incur losses for at least the next several years. We expect that our research and development and selling, general and administrative expenses will continue to increase and, as a result, we will need additional capital to fund our operations, which we may raise through a combination of equity offerings, debt financings, other third-party funding, marketing and distribution arrangements and other collaborations, strategic alliances and licensing arrangements.

We have funded our operations since inception primarily through private and public offerings of our equity securities, grant revenues, payments received under patent licenses, reimbursements of research tax credit claims and payments under our strategic alliances with Pfizer and Servier. Our ordinary shares have been traded on the Alternext market of Euronext in Paris since February 7, 2007 and our ADSs have traded on the Nasdaq Global Market in New York since March 25, 2015.

Liquidity management

As of September 30, 2016, we had cash and cash equivalents of €186.3 million and current financial assets of €77.7 million.

Cash in excess of immediate requirements is invested in accordance with our investment policy, primarily with a view to liquidity and capital preservation. Currently, our cash and cash equivalents are held in bank accounts, money market funds, fixed bank deposits primarily in France and are primarily denominated in U.S. Dollars ($164.8 million as of September 30, 2016). Current financial assets denominated in U.S. Dollars amounted to $88.0 million as of September 30, 2016.

Historical Changes in Cash Flows

The table below summarizes our sources and uses of cash with respect to continuing operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2016:

	For the nine-month period ended September 30,
	2015			2016
	€ in thousands
Net cash flows provided by (used in) operating activities		(21,983	)		(30,806	)
Net cash flows provided by (used in) investing activities		(6,070	)		(90,156	)
Net cash flows provided by (used in) financing activities		195,661			385
Total		167,608			(120,577	)

For the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2016, our net cash flows used in operating activities were €22.0 million and €30.8 million, respectively. The increase in net cash flows used was due to the increase in our net loss from continuing operations and the relevant factors with respect to this net loss, described above, plus several advance payments made for manufacturing activities.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2016, our net cash flows used in investing activities were €6.1 million and €90.2 million, respectively. This increase primarily reflects our use of $10.0 million (€8.9 million) for the acquisition of land by Calyxt and the building of its greenhouse, and the acquisition of $88.0 million (€78.8 million) of financial current assets at Cellectis S.A.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2016, our net cash flows provided by financing activities were €195.7 million and €0.4 million, respectively. The 2015 figure reflects the effect of our Initial Public Offering on the Nasdaq Global Market in New York.

Operating capital requirements

To date, we have not generated any revenues from therapeutic or agricultural product sales. We do not know when, or if, we will generate any revenues from product sales. We do not expect to generate significant revenues from product sales unless and until we obtain regulatory approval of and commercialize one of our current or future product candidates. We anticipate that we will continue to generate losses for the foreseeable future, and we expect the losses to increase as we continue the development of, and seek regulatory approvals for, our product candidates, and begin to commercialize any approved products. We are subject to all risks incident in the development of new gene therapy products, and we may encounter unforeseen expenses, difficulties, complications, delays and other unknown factors that may adversely affect our business. We are also subject to all risks incident in the development of new agricultural products, and we may encounter unforeseen expenses, difficulties, complications, delays and other unknown factors that may adversely affect our business. We also anticipate substantial expenses related to audit, legal, regulatory and tax-related services associated with our public company obligations in the United States and our continued compliance with applicable U.S. exchange listing and SEC requirements. We anticipate that we will need additional funding in connection with our continuing operations, including for the further development of our existing product candidates and to pursue other development activities related to additional product candidates.

Until we can generate a sufficient amount of revenues from our products, if ever, we expect to finance a portion of future cash needs through public or private equity or debt offerings. Additional capital may not be available on reasonable terms, if at all. If we are unable to raise additional capital in sufficient amounts or on terms acceptable to us, we may have to significantly delay, scale back or discontinue the development or commercialization of one or more of our product candidates. If we raise additional funds through the issuance of additional debt or equity securities, it could result in dilution to our existing shareholders, increased fixed payment obligations and these securities may have rights senior to those of our ordinary shares. If we incur indebtedness, we could become subject to covenants that would restrict our operations and potentially impair our competitiveness, such as limitations on our ability to incur additional debt, limitations on our ability to acquire, sell or license intellectual property rights and other operating restrictions that could adversely impact our ability to conduct our business. Any of these events could significantly harm our business, financial condition and prospects.

37

Our assessment of the period of time through which our financial resources will be adequate to support our operations is a forward-looking statement and involves risks and uncertainties, and actual results could vary as a result of a number of factors. We have based this estimate on assumptions that may prove to be wrong, and we could use our available capital resources sooner than we currently expect. Our future funding requirements, both near and long-term, will depend on many factors, including, but not limited to:

• the initiation, progress, timing, costs and results of pre-clinical and clinical studies for our product candidates;

• the initiation, progress, timing, costs and results of field trials for our agricultural product candidates;

• the outcome, timing and cost of regulatory approvals by U.S. and non-U.S. regulatory authorities, including the possibility that regulatory authorities will require that we perform more studies than those that we currently expect;

• the ability of our product candidates to progress through clinical development successfully;

• the ability of our agricultural product candidates to progress through late stage development successfully, including through field trials;

• the cost of filing, prosecuting, defending and enforcing any patent claims and other intellectual property rights;

• our need to expand our research and development activities;

• our need and ability to hire additional personnel;

• our need to implement additional infrastructure and internal systems, including manufacturing processes for our product candidates;

• the effect of competing technological and market developments; and

• the cost of establishing sales, marketing and distribution capabilities for any products for which we may receive regulatory approval.

If we cannot expand our operations or otherwise capitalize on our business opportunities because we lack sufficient capital, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially adversely affected.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

During the periods presented, we did not and do not currently have any off-balance sheet arrangements as defined under Securities and Exchange Commission rules.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risks

Interest Rate Risk

We seek to engage in prudent management of our cash and cash equivalents, mainly cash on hand and common financial instruments (typically short- and mid-term deposits). Furthermore, the interest rate risk related to cash, cash equivalents and common financial instruments is not significant based on the quality of the financial institutions with which we work.

Foreign Currency Exchange Risk

We derive a significant portion of our revenues, including payments under our collaboration agreement with Pfizer in U.S. dollars. Since the beginning of fiscal year 2015, we have been significantly expanding our activities in the United States, but there continues to be a currency mismatch in our cash flows since most of our expenses remain denominated primarily in Euros. Our financial condition and results of operations are measured and recorded in the relevant local base currency and then translated each month into Euros for inclusion in our Consolidated Financial Statements. We translate balance sheet amounts at the exchange rates in effect on the date of the balance sheet, while income and cash flow items are translated at the average rate of exchange in effect for the relevant period. Our exposure to currencies other than the U.S. dollar is negligible.

38

For the nine months ended September 30, 2016, our revenues denominated in U.S. dollars notably related to the Pfizer collaboration agreement and revenues from our Plants segment. Our cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities denominated in U.S dollars amounted to $164.8 million as of September 30, 2016. Current financial assets denominated in U.S. dollars amounted to $88.0 million as of September 30, 2016.

Financial gain was €0.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 compared with financial loss of €6.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2016, we subscribed to zero premium collars ($20 million nominal value) and accumulators ($20 million nominal value) and we transferred $70 million to Cellectis Inc. which has transactions mainly denominated in dollars. The change in financial result was primarily attributable to the effect of exchange rate fluctuations on our U.S. dollars cash and cash equivalent accounts.

Inflation Risk

We do not believe that inflation has had a material effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations. If our costs were to become subject to significant inflationary pressures, we may not be able to fully offset such higher costs through price increases. Our inability or failure to do so could harm our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

We must maintain effective internal control over financial reporting in order to accurately and timely report our results of operations and financial condition. In addition, as a public company, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, or the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, requires, among other things, that we assess the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures and the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting at the end of each fiscal year. We are first required to issue management’s annual report on internal control over financial reporting, pursuant to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, as of December 31, 2016.

The rules governing the standards that must be met for our management to assess our internal control over financial reporting pursuant to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act are complex and require significant documentation, testing and possible remediation.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

From time to time, we may be involved in various claims and legal proceedings relating to claims arising out of our operations. We are not currently a party to any legal proceedings that, in the opinion of our management, are likely to have a material adverse effect on our business. Regardless of outcome, litigation can have an adverse impact on us because of defense and settlement costs, diversion of management resources and other factors.
