IXICO plc Presents Automated Capabilities to Measure Brain Volume Loss on Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) Within its IXI Platform IXICO plc announced it has presented new demonstrating that automated capabilities to measure brain volume loss on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) within its IXI Platform are at a minimum matching, and in some measures exceeding, the performance of semi-manual methods which require manual analysis by (human) experts. The accurate measurement of brain volume shrinkage (brain atrophy), caused by the loss of brain cells and the breakdown of connections between them, is fundamental to developing new treatments for a number of neurodegenerative diseases, including Huntington's Disease (HD). Traditionally, researchers have relied on a semi-manual approach to measure brain volume loss, known as the Boundary Shift Integral (BSI) which is currently considered to be the 'gold standard' method of analysis. In a recent study conducted by IXICO and a large US pharmaceutical partner, the results show that automated capabilities to measure brain atrophy on MRI within its IXI Platform match or exceed the performance of the semi-manual BSI method, providing an advanced, cost-effective and scalable solution to support clinical trials in HD. Of the three approaches evaluated to measure brain atrophy, IXICO demonstrated it was the most sensitive method for detecting whole brain and caudate (a small region deep in the brain impacted early in HD) volume loss.

IXICO plc Announces FDA Clearance of New Alzheimer's Disease Blood Based Diagnostic Biomarker IXICO plc outlined its role in the validation of a new Alzheimer's Disease (AD) diagnostic biomarker for client Fujirebio Diagnostics Inc. ("Fujirebio"), a global leader in the field of high-quality in vitro diagnostic (IVD) testing. The imaging analysis, conducted via IXICO's AI-driven platform, has supported Fujirebio's 510(k) FDA clearance for a new blood-based test that will help advance diagnosis and drug development in AD. The analysis included datasets from the Global Alzheimer's Platform Foundation's Bio-Hermes-001 study, of which both Fujirebio and IXICO are partners. As Bio-Hermes' imaging partner, IXICO led the standardisation, collection and expert analysis of PET data which served as the gold standard assessment of amyloid pathology in Fujirebio's FDA filing. On 16 May Fujirebio announced that it received clearance for its Lumipulse®? G pTau 217/b-Amyloid 1-42 Plasma Ratio in-vitro diagnostic (IVD) test for the assessment of amyloid pathology In adult patients, aged 50 or older, being evaluated for Alzheimer's disease and other causes of cognitive decline. The test, which was granted Breakthrough Device Designation by the FDA, is the first FDA cleared blood-based IVD test in the U.S. to aid the identification of patients with amyloid pathology associated with AD. Fujirebio's FDA clearance is based on data from a multi-center clinical study of 499 individuals in which amyloid positivity derived from the Lumipulse G pTau217/ss-Amyloid 1- 42 Plasma Ratio has been shown to be sufficiently comparable with results obtained through amyloid PET scan or CSF tests. These findings indicate that the new blood test can reliably predict the presence or absence of amyloid pathology associated with Alzheimer's disease at the time of the test in patients who are cognitively impaired. The test is intended for patients presenting at a specialized care setting with signs and symptoms of cognitive decline. The results must be interpreted in conjunction with other patient clinical information. The analysis by IXICO corresponds to the announcement made by the Company on 27 February 2025 that it had won a contract with an, at the time, undisclosed multinational biotechnology company. IXICO is now able to confirm that this company was Fujirebio. The imaging element of the clinical trial conducted on behalf of Fujirebio marks an expansion in IXICO's neuroimaging biomarker analyses capabilities beyond therapeutic clinical trial assessment to the analysis and validation of clinical diagnostic biomarkers.

New major risk - Share price stability The company's share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months. It is more volatile than 90% of German stocks, typically moving 11% a week. This is considered a major risk. Share price volatility increases the risk of potential losses in the short-term as the stock tends to have larger drops in price more frequently than other stocks. It may also indicate the stock is highly sensitive to market conditions or economic conditions rather than being sensitive to its own business performance, which may also be inconsistent. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months (11% average weekly change). Shareholders have been substantially diluted in the past year (92% increase in shares outstanding). Minor Risks Currently unprofitable and not forecast to become profitable next year (UK£2.0m net loss next year). Market cap is less than US$100m (€9.76m market cap, or US$10.3m). New Risk • Oct 11
New major risk - Shareholder dilution The company's shareholders have been substantially diluted in the past year. Increase in shares outstanding: 55% This is considered a major risk. Shareholder dilution occurs when there is an increase in the number of shares on issue that is not proportionally distributed between all shareholders. Often due to the company raising equity capital or some options being converted into stock. All else being equal, if there are more shares outstanding then each existing share will be entitled to a lower proportion of the company's total earnings, thus reducing earnings per share (EPS). While dilution might not always result in lower EPS (like if the company is using the capital to fund an EPS accretive acquisition) in a lot cases it does, along with lower dividends per share and less voting power at shareholder meetings. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Shareholders have been substantially diluted in the past year (55% increase in shares outstanding). Market cap is less than US$10m (€8.26m market cap, or US$9.03m). Minor Risks Currently unprofitable and not forecast to become profitable next year (UK£2.0m net loss next year).

New major risk - Revenue and earnings growth Earnings have declined by 14% per year over the past 5 years. This is considered a major risk. Ultimately, shareholders want to see a good return on their investment and that generally comes from sharing in the company's profits. If profits are declining over an extended period, then in most cases the share price will decline over time unless the company can turn around its fortunes. A trend of falling earnings can be very difficult to turn around. If the company is well already established it may also be a sign the company has matured and is in decline. In addition, if the company pays dividends it will also likely need to reduce or cut them, striking a dual blow to total shareholder returns. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Earnings have declined by 14% per year over the past 5 years.

New major risk - Market cap size The company's market capitalization is less than US$10m. Market cap: €9.08m (US$9.54m) This is considered a major risk. Companies with a small market capitalization are most likely businesses that have not yet released a product to market or are simply a very small company without a wide reach. Either way, risk is elevated with these companies because there is a chance the product may not come to fruition or the company's addressable market or demand may not be as large as expected. In addition, if the company's size is the main factor, it is less likely to have many investors and analysts following it and scrutinizing its performance and outlook. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Earnings are forecast to decline by an average of 41% per year for the foreseeable future.

IXICO plc Announces the Launch of IXIQ.Ai, A Novel Platform for Brain Segmentation Based on Convolutional Neural Networks IXICO plc announced the launch of IXIQ.Ai, a novel platform for brain segmentation based on convolutional neural networks. The platform has been developed and validated in collaboration with IXICO's academic and pharma partners and will be applied to clinical trials from March 2022. IXIQ.Ai provides IXICO's development engineers with an agile infrastructure to enable efficient and rapid deployment of analysis solutions ("plugins") for specific therapeutic indications or brain regions. IXIQ.Ai analysis is performed on a MRI scan to segment the brain structure relevant to a specific central nervous system ("CNS") indication. The platform is pre-trained on IXICO's database of clinical trial and natural history datasets across several CNS indications, which has benefited from machine learning improvements developed over the past 10 years. Based on the IXIQ.Ai platform infrastructure, plugins can be trained with a reduced number of highly curated datasets to obtain an optimised solution for a specific segmentation problem. IXIQ.Ai will include pre-developed and validated plugins for applications in Huntington's disease ("HD") and Alzheimer's Disease ("AD"). Scientific presentations with IXICO's academic and pharma partners have shown benefits of IXIQ.Ai over widely used brain imaging tools in three areas: Sensitivity to smaller treatment effects - every datapoint matters in efficacy analysis of imaging endpoints to increase the ability of detecting a treatment effect and, ultimately, to manage trial size, development time and costs; thereby improving overall efficiency in running clinical trials. The IXIQ.Ai platform increases the amount of usable data by 10%-20% on standard brain regions and can more than double it for challenging brain regions when compared to widely used tools, enabling the detection of proportionally smaller treatment effects without increasing trial size. Accuracy that enables patient-level decision making - a move towards precision medicine, as well as increasingly sophisticated drug candidates and administration modes in neuroscience, encourage applications of brain volumetry that drive individual patient decisions. Moving away from group-level statistics increases the requirements on accurate and reliable measurements at the patient level. Compared to widely used tools, IXIQ.Ai reduces volume error to manual expert segmentations by up to 80%, enabling more accurate patient-level decision-making. IXIQ.Ai provides measurements in real-time, enabling quick turnarounds in critical eligibility decision. Flexibility to adapt to customized trial needs - using an analysis solution tailored to specific patient populations or brain regions, enables greater accuracy compared to one-size-fits-all solutions. IXIQ.Ai can be flexibly adapted to a specific patient population by using only a small number of highly curated training cases, offering a customisable solution to address specific trial needs. The launch of IXIQ.Ai is scheduled to coincide with the 17th Annual Huntington's Disease Therapeutics Conference: A Forum for Drug Discovery & Development - 28th Feb. - 3rd March, Palm Springs, CA, where IXICO is presenting with pharma and academic partners on the application of the platform in HD imaging. Further validation of the AD workstream will be presented at the 16th International Conference on Alzheimer's & Parkinson's Diseases - 15th - 20th March, Barcelona. Annuncio • Feb 01

Ixico plc Enters into 5 Year Collaboration with Friedreich's Ataxia Research Alliance IXICO plc announced that it has entered into a 5 year collaboration with the Friedreich's Ataxia Research Alliance (FARA), a non-profit organization dedicated to the pursuit of scientific research leading to treatments and a cure for Friedreich's Ataxia (FA). IXICO will become a member of the TRACK-FA Neuroimaging Consortium, working with clinicians and researchers to explore novel imaging markers in Friedreich's Ataxia. FA is a rare inherited, debilitating, life-limiting, degenerative neuro-muscular disorder, and although rare, it is the most common form of hereditary ataxia in the United States, affecting about 1 in every 50,000 people. FA causes progressive nervous system damage and movement problems and usually begins in childhood and leads to impaired muscle coordination (ataxia) that worsens over time, with the rate of progression varying from person to person. Generally, within 10 to 20 years after the appearance of the first symptoms the person is confined to a wheelchair. The TRACK-FA Neuroimaging Consortium is a representative group of stakeholders with interest in the design, conduct, support and participation in neuroimaging studies in FA, facilitating the exchange of data and other information with the goal of furthering the understanding of FA, identifying sensitive neuroimaging biomarkers and advancing the development of treatments for FA. IXICO will support the implementation of novel analysis algorithms, with the aim of providing a trial ready imaging solution for FA clinical trials. IXICO will be an industry member and stakeholder in the consortium, working alongside academic partners with expertise in neuroimaging and conducting clinical research in FA. These partners include Monash University (Australia), University of Minnesota (USA), Aachen University (Germany), University of Campinas (Brazil), University of Florida (USA), and Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (USA).

Global Alzheimer's Platform Foundation Selects IXICO plc for Innovative Bio-Hermes Trial IXICO plc announced that is has been selected by the Global Alzheimer's Platform Foundation (GAP) to support GAP's planned Bio-Hermes trial. IXICO will apply its expertise to collect Positron Emission Tomography (PET) brain scans in qualifying imaging centres participating in Bio-Hermes and provide analysis of the scans. Bio-Hermes' core purpose is development of a bio-sample database to investigate biomarkers on a head-to-head basis in conjunction with medical history elements. The Bio-Hermes trial will include 1,000 volunteers over the age of 60 screened for Preclinical Alzheimer's Disease, Prodromal AD, or Mild Dementia AD. Observational biomarker studies consistently suggest that amyloid deposition and tau deposition in neurofibrillary tangles in the brain may be the sentinel events in Alzheimer's Disease pathology. In the Bio-Hermes trial, Avid Pharmaceuticals' Amyvid™ will be used as the radioactive diagnostic agent to estimate ß-amyloid neuritic plaque density.
