In particular, progress continues well and on track with our GABAB PAM drug candidate in chronic cough. We also presented positive data from the cough program, achieved in multiple preclinical models, at the prestigious American Cough conference. We also regained rights to our Phase 2 mGlu2 PAM asset, ADX71149, for which we are evaluating next steps for the program internally,” said Tim Dyer, CEO of Addex. “Solidifying our position to use mGlu5 NAMs in brain injury, we entered an option agreement with Sinntaxis to gain access to additional intellectual property in the field. Our plan is to explore further the clinical activity of dipraglurant in this indication. Our partner, Indivior, has advanced its GABAB PAM clinical candidate through IND enabling studies, providing additional validation of our allosteric modulation approach. We also led a financing in Stalicla, a Swiss company pioneering a precision medicine approach for neurodevelopmental and neuropsychiatric disorders. Following the spin-out of Neurosterix last year, this investment continues to underscore our commitment to advancing innovative treatments for CNS disorders.” Operating Highlights:  GABAB PAM chronic cough candidate demonstrated robust anti-tussive activity in multiple models of disease Regained rights to phase 2 mGlu2 PAM asset, ADX71149Indivior advanced its GABAB PAM program for substance use disorders successfully through IND enabling studiesEntered option agreement with Sinntaxis for exclusive license to intellectual property covering use of mGlu5 NAM in brain injury recoveryInvested in Stalicla, continuing strategic commitment to advancing innovative treatments for CNS Key H1 2025 Financial Data CHF’ thousands Q2 25 Q2 24 Change H1 25 H1 24 Change Income 36 115 (79) 107 350 (243) R&D expenses (234) (339) 105 (391) (584) 193 G&A expenses (535) (675) 140 (1,056) (1,453) 397 Total operating loss (733) (899) 166 (1,340) (1,687) 347 Finance result, net 6 (27) 33 (13) 26 (39) Share of net loss of associates (1,232) (531) (701) (2,079) (531) (1,548) Net loss from continuing operations (1,959) (1,457) (502) (3,432) (2,192) (1,240) Net profit from discontinued operations 118 14,335 (14,217) 118 11,983 (11,865) Net profit or (loss) for the period (1,841) 12,878 (14,719) (3,314) 9,791 (13,105) Basic and diluted net loss per share:             From continuing operations (0.02) (0.01) (0.01) (0.03) (0.02) (0.01) From discontinued operations 0.00 0.14 (0.14) 0.00 0.12 (0.12) Total basic and diluted net loss per share (0.02) 0.13 (0.15) (0.03) 0.10 (0.13) Net increase / (decrease) in cash during the period (524) 2,160 (2,684) (1,041) (77) (964) Cash and cash equivalents as of June 30 2,301 3,788 (1,487) 2,301 3,788 (1,487) Shareholders’ equity 7,213 12,651 (5,438) 7,213 12,651 (5,438) Financial Summary:Income decreased by CHF 0.2 million during the six-month period ended June 30, 2025 compared to the same period ended June 30, 2024, primarily due to the completion of the R&D collaboration phase of our agreement with Indivior. R&D expenses decreased by CHF 0.2 million during the six-month period ended June 30, 2025 compared to the same period ended June 30, 2024, primarily due to lower GABAB PAM outsourced R&D expenses related to our R&D collaboration agreement with Indivior.

The net result decreased by CHF 13.1 million during the six-month period ended June 30, 2025 compared to the same period ended June 30, 2024, primarily due to gross proceeds of CHF 14.0 million from the sale of a part of our business executed on April 2, 2024 and recognized as discontinued operations. During the same period ended June 30, 2025, the net loss from continuing operations increased by CHF 1.2 million primarily due to an increased share of loss from the investment in Neurosterix US Holdings accounted for using the equity method since April 2, 2024.  Basic and diluted loss per share amounted to CHF 0.03 per share for the six-month period ended June 30, 2025 compared to a basic and diluted profit per share of CHF 0.10 for the same period ended June 30, 2024.
