In an uncertain and volatile market environment caused by geopolitical tensions in the Middle East, Amoeba wanted to secure a significant amount of funding within a tight market window, which could be deployed rapidly and aligned with its operational needs. The €4.0 million in subscription commitments received from Vatel Capital, a leading independent French investment management firm specialising in supporting small and mid-cap companies, was a key factor in the decision to launch the Operation. This comes at a time when Amoeba is enjoying a very favourable momentum, particularly following the first order from its partner Koppert received in early March, which marks a new phase in Amoeba's history¹.

The funds raised will thus enable Amoeba to accelerate the industrial ramp-up initiated through contracts with external CDMO service providers, to continue providing marketing and commercial support for the developments undertaken by its distribution partners, and to underpin its development strategy in the cosmetics sector.

Benoît VILLERS, Chairman of the Board of Directors of Amoeba, said: "This transaction enables Amoeba to strengthen its financial position at a crucial moment, as the company officially enters the commercialisation phase of its biocontrol solution, with the support of its various partners. We are delighted that Amoeba has, in particular, caught the attention of a renowned investment firm such as Vatel Capital, which sends a strong signal of confidence in our trajectory. In a particularly uncertain market environment, it was our responsibility to seize this opportunity to raise funds. We opted for an ABB, which is the most responsive and appropriate financial instrument in the current circumstances, but we regret the end of the only mechanism that allowed retail investors to participate in this type of transaction. Amoeba now relies on solid regulatory, industrial, financial and commercial fundamentals to maximise value creation for all its partners and shareholders."

A refinancing agreement to defer financial obligations

Ameba has also negotiated and secured approval for a debt refinancing agreement with its majority shareholder, Nice & Green, which will enable it to gain greater financial clarity and postpone repayment of the bulk of its bond debt until 2029.

For the record, Nice & Green and Amoeba signed a contract in February 2023 for the issue and subscription of ordinary bonds, enabling Amoeba to access a non-dilutive source of funding. Under this agreement, Amoeba has a debt to Nice & Green of approximately €12.0 million as at the end of March 2026, with the first repayment instalments initially scheduled for August 2026.

To enable Amoeba to devote its financial resources to the upcoming commercialisation phase, the two parties have agreed to refinance this debt via a new agreement, which cancels and replaces the previously signed agreements. Its main features are as follows:

• A single agreement, replacing the initial agreement of February 2023 and its various amendments;
• A new bond issue in the form of simple bonds, maturing in September 2029, for an amount of €12.0 million;
• An interest rate reduced by 200 basis points;

• A repayment of the face value of the plain bonds in September 2029, with interest paid every six months from September 2026;
• The option for the lender to convert its bond debt into shares in the event of any capital increase by the issuer (up to a maximum of 35% of the issue);
• The retention of the repayment guarantees from the previous agreement (pledge of intellectual property rights and the option to convert the bond claim into share warrants in the event of default).

With no principal repayments due until 2029, Amoeba now has greater operational latitude to focus on its growth trajectory.

By combining the net proceeds from the capital increase, the Company's current cash reserves, the revised repayment schedule for the debt owed to Nice & Green, and the financial support provided by the latter, Amoeba believes it can sustain its growth and meet its financial obligations at least until 31 December 2026.

Jean-François DOUCET, Chief Executive Officer of Amoeba, said: "This fundraising will enable us to confidently approach the launch of our biocontrol solution, in particular by supporting the ramp-up of industrial production with our CDMO partners and by stepping up our sales efforts alongside our distribution partners. The refinancing agreement with our major shareholder also increases our financial flexibility and visibility. We now have everything we need to ensure the success of the upcoming commercialisation phase and to meet the expectations of industry professionals."

About Amoeba:

Founded in 2010, Amoeba is a green tech company based in Chassieu (Lyon, France) that aims to become a major player in microbiological risk treatment through the patented use of amoebae in the plant protection and cosmetics sectors.

With unique expertise protected by numerous patents, Amoeba is currently the only company authorised to use the Willaertia amoeba industrially for biocontrol and cosmetic applications. To the Company's knowledge, it is also the only company capable of producing it on an industrial scale in volumes compatible with commercial applications, in order to offer a viable alternative to the chemical products widely used today.

Amoeba is currently focusing on the global biocontrol market for plant protection and the cosmetics market. As the marketing of plant protection products is subject to obtaining local regulatory approvals, the Company has taken the necessary regulatory steps and submitted applications for approval in Europe and the United States. The active substance has already been approved in the United States in 2022 and received a positive and final report from the EFSA in Europe. Product registration was obtained in 2025 for the United States and is expected in 2026 in France and then in other targeted European countries.

The cosmetic application does not require prior approval from a competent authority in Europe or the United States. The cosmetic ingredient is already listed on the INCI (International Nomenclature of Cosmetic Ingredients) list, paving the way for its commercialisation worldwide, except in China, where local approval is required.

Amoeba is listed on Euronext Growth (ALMIB). The company is a member of the Bpifrance Excellence network and is eligible for the PEA-PME scheme. For more information, visit www.amoeba-nature.com.
