New major risk - Negative shareholders equity The company has negative equity. Total equity: -€4.8m This is considered a major risk. Being in negative equity means that the company's liabilities exceed its assets, meaning it owes more to creditors than it has in owned assets. While this doesn't mean the company is about to collapse, in the long-term, this is unsustainable. The company may have issues meeting financial obligations, is at risk of becoming insolvent and may have difficulty raising capital, especially more debt, if needed.

New minor risk - Shareholder dilution The company's shareholders have been diluted in the past year. Increase in shares outstanding: 21% This is considered a minor 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.

Nicox SA Announces Results of the Exploratory Whistler Phase 3B Glaucoma Trial Nicox SA announced the results of the Whistler Phase 3b exploratory clinical trial investigating the dual mechanism of action (nitric oxide and prostaglandin analog) of NCX 470 in intraocular pressure (IOP) lowering in healthy volunteers and ocular hypertension. The company believe that the outcomes in favor of NCX 470 in several trabecular meshwork aqueous humor dynamics parameters are due to nitric oxide. These positive exploratory results suggest that further investigation may be warranted into the dual mechanism effect of NCX 470 on intraocular pressure. The therapeutic characteristics of NCX 470 demonstrated in the Phase 3 program so far shows that the company have an approvable and differentiated asset with a promising clinical profile. The company believe this change is due to the effect of nitric oxide on the trabecular meshwork1. IOP lowering and uveoscleral outflow were statistically significant at all timepoints measured, whilst episcleral venous pressure did not show a notable trend. These findings support the dual mechanism of action for IOP lowering of NCX 470 through both the conventional (nitric oxide-stimulated) and the uveoscleral (prostaglandin-stimulated) pathways. The safety profile observed was consistent with that of the first Phase 3 trial, Mont Blanc. The Whistler trial was an exploratory trial and is not a requirement for the submission of New Drug Applications for NCX 470 and therefore does not impact the development timeline. The patient population in the Whistler trial was primarily normotensive healthy volunteers with mean baseline IOPs of 16.6 mmHg and 16.9 mmHg for NCX 470 and placebo treated patients, respectively. This is not the same patient profile as in the Phase 3 glaucoma program. Safety and efficacy have already been demonstrated in the first Phase 3 clinical trial, Mont Blanc. New Risk • May 05
New major risk - Revenue and earnings growth Earnings have declined by 1.3% 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 1.3% per year over the past 5 years. Shareholders have been substantially diluted in the past year (38% increase in shares outstanding). Minor Risks Currently unprofitable and not forecast to become profitable next year (€16m net loss next year). Market cap is less than US$100m (€16.1m market cap, or US$18.2m).

Nicox's Announces Publication of New Nonclinical Data Demonstrating More Effective Intraocular Pressure Lowering of NCX 470 Compared to Lumigan Nicox SA announced that new nonclinical data on NCX 470 (0.1%) demonstrating greater intraocular pressure (IOP) lowering than Lumigan® (bimatoprost ophthalmic solution, 0.01%) upon both single and repeated (5-day) dosing in an in vivo nonclinical model has been published in the peer-reviewed Journal of Ocular Pharmacology and Therapeutics. The publication also includes outflow data on NCX 470 in a different in vivo non clinical model and on NCX 470 compared to equimolar bimatoprost in in vitro human trabecular meshwork/Schlemm’s canal constructs suggesting that NCX 470-mediated increase in outflow facility and uveoscleral outflow accounts for the robust IOP reduction exerted by this compound. NCX 470, a novel nitric oxide (NO)-donating bimatoprost eyedrop, is in Phase 3 clinical development for the lowering of IOP in patients with open angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension. NCX 470 is designed to release both bimatoprost and NO into the eye to lower IOP by two pathways. Lumigan, marketed by Allergan Inc., is the leading branded product by sales in the class of prostaglandin analogs, the most widely used class of drugs for IOP-lowering in patients with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension. IOP lowering was measured in ocular normotensive beagle dogs following either single or repeat once-daily morning dosing over 5 consecutive days, in an open-label crossover design, of either NCX 470 (0.1%), Lumigan® (bimatoprost ophthalmic solution, 0.01%) or vehicle. After single-dosing, NCX 470 demonstrated greater IOP reduction than Lumigan at most timepoints tested up to 24 hours post-dosing, with the greatest difference seen at 5 hours. In the repeat dosing study, the effects of both NCX 470 and Lumigan were generally stable throughout the period of the study, with NCX 470 showing consistently greater IOP reduction than Lumigan® at all timepoints tested. Aqueous humor dynamics were studied in ocular normotensive non-human primates treated in a crossover design with either NCX 470 or vehicle over 4 days. Measurements were taken on the fourth day and demonstrated that NCX 470 increased both outflow facility and uveoscleral outflow compared to vehicle. Aqueous humor outflow was also investigated in human trabecular meshwork/Schlemm’s canal constructs treated with equimolar NCX 470 or bimatoprost, or vehicle. Outflow facility was increased by both NCX 470 and bimatoprost compared to vehicle, with NCX 470 having a greater effect than bimatoprost. New Risk • Nov 15
New major risk - Revenue and earnings growth Earnings are forecast to decline by an average of 5.7% per year for the foreseeable future. This is considered a major risk.
