Evolving Commercial Processes and Culture

Q1 2025 – All time high in customer numbers
Early indication of customer centric transformation
Unique customers reached their highest level in recent years, driven by biomanufacturing growth
Biomanufacturing
- Orders increase, customer base continues to grow across NA and EMEA
- Increase in both opportunities made and customer pipeline stage progression
Molecular Tools
- Orders and customer base contracting, with stable AOV
- Lower demand from key Life Science and Diagnostic customers impacted sales
Biomanufacturing Q1

Partnerships Biomanufacturing

CDMO opportunities
Becoming the standard nuclease on a CDMO platform
- Trend in the CGT space a return to the CDMO model
- Trough partnerships with CDMOs we will expand our reach significantly into several projects/clients
- M-SAN and SAN has been tested in an initial studies with good data outcome at CDMOs
- M-SAN enhances
- Downstream recovery
- Reduces DNA contamination
- Minimizes vector aggregation, leading to cleaner, higher-quality lentiviral vectors
- Two CDMOs staring Q2/3 to implement SAN on their platforms

RNA based therapeutics
Targeting a broader Advanced Therapies Market
- Enzymes are key in development, analytics and manufacturing process of mRNA
- AZT is now exploring new innovations in the field of RNA therapeutics through RCN funded collaboration project.
- First major innovation is a sequence specific RNA cleaving enzyme enabling controlled fragmentation of RNA
- First patent filed February 7, 2023 further filing ongoing to secure broader IPR and lead market
- Multiple applications are possible, currently testing use for improving analytic methods for mRNA
- In contact with numerous companies with ongoing testing at 7 sites


Due to its large size, mRNA needs to be fragmented prior to analysis e.g. using LC-MS. ET-N1 can speed up and simplify the cleaving process prior to analysis.

Outlook 2025
The market
- Opportunities plentiful in a dynamic macroeconomic environment
- Dialogues with Biomanufacturing customers are many and positive
- Still ground to cover SAN is still new to many
Customer centric transformation:
- Customer base is expanding new all time high
- Will continue to invest in organization and activities
CDMO platform partnerships:
- Platform implementation at two CDMOs
- Working on onboarding more
Product portfolio expansion:
- New GMP grade nuclease will be launched mid 2025
- RNA restriction enzyme ET-N1 has entered development phase
Confident in our ability to execute on our strategic priorities and create shareholder value
