KDventures AB Announces Organon Discontinues Development of Forendo's Drug Candidate for Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome KDventures AB announced that Organon has discontinued the development of a preclinical drug candidate for polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) that was part of the acquisition of the portfolio company Forendo. Thus, the development of both drug candidates included in the acquisition has been discontinued. KDventures will therefore write off its entire remaining book value of the agreement on potential additional purchase considerations entered into between the parties in connection with the acquisition. In 2021, Organon acquired KDventures' portfolio company Forendo, but in July 2025 discontinued development of OG-6219, its most advanced drug candidate targeting endometriosis. The acquisition also included a preclinical drug candidate for polycystic ovary syndrome. Organon has now announced that development of this drug candidate has also been discontinued. This announcement means that the value of KDventures' share of the parties’ agreement on potential additional purchase considerations will be written off in its entirety, which will be reported in the interim report for the first quarter of 2026.

New Risk • Jan 29
New major risk - Shareholder dilution The company's shareholders have been substantially diluted in the past year. Increase in shares outstanding: 142% 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 Share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months (19% average weekly change). Earnings have declined by 20% per year over the past 5 years. Shareholders have been substantially diluted in the past year (142% increase in shares outstanding).

New major risk - Market cap size The company's market capitalization is less than US$10m. Market cap: kr88.6m (US$9.62m) 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.

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 Swedish stocks, typically moving 13% a week.

New major risk - Revenue and earnings growth Earnings have declined by 37% 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.

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.

The extension of the study met its objective, which was to evaluate if the efficacy of tafoxiparin obtained in the phase 2b trial persists when the drug is administered in additional doses. In a clinical phase 2b study, tafoxiparin showed a significant positive effect on cervical ripening in first-time mothers that were given treatment for a planned start of labor. The completed extension of the phase 2b study included a total of 164 women, and the results show that the cervical ripening effect persists in the study. In addition, a clear dose-response relationship was observed. Up to 30% of all pregnant women are subject to planned start of labor, the current interventions increase the risk of medical complications in both mother and child, leading to high healthcare costs.
