This Presentation shall not constitute an offer to sell, or the solicitation of an offer to buy, any securities, nor shall there be any sale of securities in any states or jurisdictions in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful. Forward Looking Statements Certain statements included in this Presentation that are not historical facts are forward-looking statements for purposes of the safe harbor provisions under the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward- looking statements generally are accompanied by words such as “believe,” “may,” “will,” “estimate,” “continue,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “expect,” “should,” “would,” “plan,” “predict,” “potential,” “seem,” “seek,” “future,” “outlook” and similar expressions that predict or indicate future events or trends or that are not statements of historical matters. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements by NewAmsterdam Pharma Company N.V. (“NewAmsterdam” or the “Company”) regarding estimates and forecasts of other financial and performance metrics and projections of market opportunity; expectations and timing related to the success, cost and timing of product development activities, including timing of initiation, completion and data readouts for clinical trials and the potential approval of the Company’s product candidate; the timing for enrolling patients; the timing and forums for announcing data; the size and growth potential of the markets for the Company’s product candidate; the therapeutic and curative potential of the Company’s product candidate; financing and other business milestones; the Company’s expected cash runway; and the Company’s plans for commercialization. These statements are based on various assumptions, whether or not identified in this Presentation, and on the current expectations of the Company’s management and are not predictions of actual performance. These forward-looking statements are provided for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to serve as and must not be relied on as a guarantee, an assurance, a prediction, or a definitive statement of fact or probability. Actual events and circumstances are difficult or impossible to predict and may differ from assumptions. Many actual events and circumstances are beyond the control of the Company. These forward- looking statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including changes in domestic and foreign business, market, financial, political, and legal conditions; risks related to the approval of NewAmsterdam’s product candidate and the timing of expected regulatory and business milestones; whether topline, initial or preliminary results from a particular clinical trial will be predictive of the final results of that trial and whether results of early clinical trials will be indicative of the results of later clinical trials; ability to negotiate definitive contractual arrangements with potential customers; the impact of competitive product candidates; ability to obtain sufficient supply of materials; global economic and political conditions, including the Russia-Ukraine conflict; the effects of competition on NewAmsterdam’s future business; and those factors discussed in documents filed by the Company with the SEC. Additional risks related to NewAmsterdam’s business include, but are not limited to: uncertainty regarding outcomes of the company’s ongoing clinical trials, particularly as they relate to regulatory review and potential approval for its product candidate; risks associated with the Company’s efforts to commercialize a product candidate; the Company’s ability to negotiate and enter into definitive agreements on favorable terms, if at all; the impact of competing product candidates on the Company’s business; intellectual property-related claims; the Company’s ability to attract and retain qualified personnel; and the Company’s ability to continue to source the raw materials for its product candidate, together with the risks described in the Company’s filings made with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission from time to time. If any of these risks materialize or NewAmsterdam’s assumptions prove incorrect, actual results could differ materially from the results implied by these forward-looking statements. There may be additional risks that are presently unknown by the Company or that NewAmsterdam currently believes are immaterial that could also cause actual results to differ from those contained in the forward-looking statements. In addition, forward-looking statements reflect NewAmsterdam’s expectations, plans, or forecasts of future events and views as of the date of this Presentation and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the cautionary statements herein. NewAmsterdam anticipates that subsequent events and developments will cause the Company’s assessments to change. These forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as representing NewAmsterdam’s assessments as of any date subsequent to the date of this Presentation. Accordingly, undue reliance should not be placed upon the forward-looking statements. Neither NewAmsterdam nor any of its affiliates undertakes any obligation to update these forward-looking statements, except as required by law. Market Data Certain information contained in this Presentation relates to or is based on third-party studies, publications, surveys and NewAmsterdam’s own internal estimates and research.

Selecting trials with shared features allows for a potentially more accurate comparison of the LDL-C lowering results, with factors being considered such as: a) presence of intensive LDL-lowering therapy including (high intensity) statins and PCSK9 inhibitors, b) patient population – ASCVD or ASCVD risk equivalent patients (including primary hypercholesterolemia and HefH) and c) where possible, selected studies where LDL-C measured by preparative ultracentrifugation (PUC ) as opposed to Friedewald; noted below are those instances where PUC was not used – this is important because at low LDL-C levels (< 50 mg/dL), calculated LDL-C by Friedewald is overestimated; certain significant deviations from these parameters are provided in the footnotes. Note: The above trials and data do not represent head-to-head comparisons. Actual results may differ from expectations. Sources: * Circulation. 2021;144:e564–e593 17065. 1. Bowman, L et al.

ACCELERATE, REVEAL and IMPROVE-IT support our belief that CVOT study duration should be long enough to see optimal MACE benefit Kaplan-Meier curves for these trial, with very similar absolute ApoB reductions, show separation later than 2 years, which is the point in time that ACCELERATE stopped MACE benefits impacted by 2 key factors: ABSOLUTE REDUCTION STUDY DURATION Curves are for the primary efficacy endpoint, which in IMPROVE-IT was defined as the composite of death from cardiovascular disease, a major coronary event (nonfatal myocardial infarction, documented unstable angina requiring hospital admission, or coronary revascularization occurring at least 30 days after randomization), or nonfatal stroke, in ACCELERATE as the composite of death from cardiovascular causes, myocardial infarction, stroke, coronary revascularization, or hospitalization for unstable angina, and in REVEAL as the composite of coronary death, myocardial infarction, or coronary revascularization. 23 Cannon CP, et al.
