Exhibit 99.1

DBV Technologies Reports September 30, 2020 Cash Position

DBV Technologies (Euronext: DBV – ISIN: FR0010417345 – Nasdaq Stock Market: DBVT), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company, today reported its cash and cash equivalents and number of outstanding shares as of September 30, 2020.

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents as of September 30, 2020, were €189.1 million, compared to €225.9 million as of June 30, 2020.

Excluding expenses related to the Company’s ongoing global restructuring plan, DBV’s average monthly cash burn decreased in the third quarter of 2020 as compared to the second quarter of 2020. DBV expects continued deceleration in the average monthly cash burn through the second half of 2021. The Company expects full implementation of the organization-wide cost reduction measures to be completed by the second half of 2021, at which point DBV forecasts it will have reduced its average monthly cash burn by 40-50% as compared to the first half of 2020.

“In the third quarter of this year, DBV advanced the global restructuring plan announced at the end of June,” said Daniel Tassé, Chief Executive Officer of DBV Technologies. “The plan enables us to maintain operational latitude to progress the clinical development and regulatory review of investigational Viaskin^™ Peanut. Based on our current assumptions regarding the progress of our regulatory dossier and the implementation of our plan, these efforts should significantly extend our cash runway to the second half of 2022.”

Number of outstanding and fully diluted shares

As of September 30, 2020, DBV’s number of outstanding shares was 54,927,187 ordinary shares and on a fully diluted basis, the number of shares was 57,687,615.¹

¹  Fully diluted share capital represents all issued and outstanding shares, as well as all potential shares which may be issued upon exercise of outstanding employee warrants, employee performance shares and share options and nonemployee warrants, as approved by DBV Technologies shareholders and granted by the Board of Directors.
