Addex Increases Issued Share Capital to Create Treasury Shares

Ad Hoc Announcement Pursuant to Art. 53 LR 

Geneva, Switzerland, June 15, 2023 - Addex Therapeutics (SIX: ADXN and Nasdaq: ADXN), a clinical-stage pharmaceutical company pioneering allosteric modulation-based drug discovery and development (“the Company”), announced today that it has increased its share capital from CHF 1,153,483.11 to CHF 1,329,483.11 through the issue of 17,600,000 new registered shares at a nominal value of CHF 0.01 each to Addex Pharma S.A, its 100% wholly-owned subsidiary. The new shares, issued from the Company’s capital band, are listed on the SIX Swiss Exchange. The transaction has been executed to provide the Group with additional future financing flexibility. The total number of issued shares increased to 132,948,311 at a nominal value of CHF 0.01 each, whilst the number of outstanding shares remains unchanged.

“The strengthening of our treasury share pool is an important part of our financing strategy to provide maximum future financing flexibility as we advance our portfolio of drug candidates,” said Tim Dyer CEO of Addex. “Our partner Janssen continues to make excellent progress in recruiting patients in Cohort 2 of the epilepsy Phase 2 clinical study while we focus on delivery drug candidates for our partner Indivior from our GABAB PAM program and advancing our other preclinical programs.”

About Addex Therapeutics:
Addex Therapeutics is a clinical-stage pharmaceutical company focused on the development and commercialization of an emerging class of novel orally available, small molecule drugs known as allosteric modulators for neurological disorders. Allosteric modulators offer several potential advantages over conventional, non-allosteric molecules and may offer an improved therapeutic approach to conventional "orthosteric" small molecule or biological drugs. Addex's allosteric modulator drug discovery platform targets receptors and other proteins that are recognized as essential for therapeutic intervention. Addex's lead drug candidate, ADX71149 (mGlu2 positive allosteric modulator or PAM), developed in collaboration with Janssen Pharmaceuticals, Inc., is in a Phase 2 clinical trial for the treatment of epilepsy. Addex's second clinical program, dipraglurant (mGlu5 negative allosteric modulator or NAM), is under evaluation for future development in a range of indications. Indivior PLC has licensed Addex’s GABAB PAM program for the development of drug candidates, with a focus on substance use disorder. Addex is also advancing a broad preclinical pipeline, which includes development of a range of GABAB PAMs for CMT1A, chronic cough and several types of pain, mGlu7 NAM for stress related disorders, mGlu2 NAM for mild neurocognitive disorders and depression, M4 PAM for schizophrenia and other forms of psychosis, as well as mGlu4 PAM and mGlu3 PAM. Addex shares are listed on the SIX Swiss Exchange and American Depositary Shares representing its shares are listed on the NASDAQ Capital Market, and trade under the ticker symbol "ADXN" on each exchange.
