ABOUT BRAIN Biotech AG

BRAIN Biotech AG is a leading European supplier of biobased products and solutions such as enzymes and proteins, microbial production strains, natural compounds and biotechnological solutions for more sustainable industrial processes. The company focuses on the fields of nutrition, health and environment.

BRAIN Biotech AG is the parent company of the international BRAIN Biotech Group. The Group's business activities are divided into three segments: The BioProducts segment comprises the product business with specialty enzymes and other proteins, for which the Group operates fermentation facilities in the United Kingdom and production facilities in continental Europe and the United States. The BioScience segment offers researchintensive custom solutions based on enzyme technology, strain development, bioprocess development and natural product screening. The BioIncubator segment conducts its own R&D projects or those initiated with partners with high value-added potential. A particularly promising incubator project is the development of the Company's own CRISPR-based gene editing technology platform, which is currently being established and expanded by Akribion Genomics.

Through its own R&D activities, the Group is continuously expanding its product portfolio in the field of specialty enzymes and small molecules. The latter are the starting point for screenings, e.g. for novel drug candidates for pharmaceutical applications.

BRAIN Biotech AG has been listed on the Prime Standard of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange since February 9, 2016 (ticker symbol: BNN; securities identification number: ISIN DE0005203947 / WKN 520394). The company employs approximately 330 people and generated revenues of EUR 55.3 million in the fiscal year 2022/23.

BRAIN Biotech AG successfully placed EUR 5.0 million convertible bond for the financing of further growth initiatives

The Management Board of BRAIN Biotech AG had resolved, with the approval of the Supervisory Board, to issue convertible bonds with a total nominal value of EUR 5.0 million, making partial use of the authorisation granted by the Annual General Meeting on 8 March 2023. The subscription rights of the company's existing shareholders were excluded. The convertible bonds were placed exclusively with MP Beteiligungs-GmbH by way of a private placement. BRAIN Biotech AG intends to use the net issue proceeds for the financing of growth initiatives and for general corporate financing purposes.

INTERIM GROUP MANAGEMENT REPORT

1 October 2023 to 31 March 2024

I. GROUP BASIS AND GENERAL CONDITIONS

The remarks made in the consolidated financial statement for the financial year ending 30 September 2023 about the Group´s basis and general conditions continue to be applicable.

II. ECONOMIC AND BUSINESS REPORT

1. Results of operations

In the first six months of the 2023/2024 financial year, the BRAIN Biotech Group generated revenue of € 27.2 million, which is at the same level as the previous year. In the second quarter of 2023/24, revenue increased by € 1.0 million or 7.4% to € 14.5 million. A large milestone payment for the successful progress of the project for the active pharmaceutical ingredient deucrictibant (formerly PHA 121), which was recognised in the BioIncubator segment, made a significant contribution to this increase. Total operating performance (revenue, research and development grant revenue, changes in inventories and other income) decreased by 2.6 % from € 28.1 million to € 27.4 million in the first six months of the financial year. This was primarily due to negative changes in inventories and lower other income compared to the same period of the previous year

The cost of materials totalled € 11.2 million compared to € 13.0 million in the previous year. Driven primarily by higher wages and salaries, absolute personnel expenses increased by 6.2 % year-on-year from € 11.4 million to € 12.1 million. At € 5.0 million, other expenses were roughly on the same level as previous year at € 5.1 million.

The adjusted Group EBITDA in the first half of the 2023/24 financial year improved by € 0.4 million from € -0.9 million in the previous year to € - 0.5 million. This primarily reflects the significant improvement in adjusted EBITDA in the second quarter compared to the previous year.

The net financial result was € -1.2 million compared to € -1.1 million in the same period of the previous year. Within the financial result, the result from companies accounted for using the at-equity method improved. On the other side the financial income of € 0.0 million was € 0.5 million lower. The previous year's figure was positively influenced by a gain from share dilution in relation to the investment in SolasCure Ltd.

Basic and diluted earnings per share in the first six months of the financial year totalled € - 0.21 compared to € - 0.22 in the same period of the previous year.

€ thousand 6M 2023/24 6M 2022/23
EBITDA -913 -1,349
Share-based employee compensation -432 -434
Adjusted EBITDA -481 -915

The following table shows the reconciliation of unadjusted EBITDA to adjusted EBITDA.

The individual business segments developed as follows:

Revenues in the BioProducts segment decreased by 5.0% from € 20.9 million to € 19.8 million in the reporting period. Total operating performance amounted to € 19.7 million, down 6.5 % on the same quarter of the previous year. Revenues in the second quarter totalled € 10.5 million, a pleasing increase compared to € 9.3 million in the first quarter of the financial year. The cost of materials was reduced from € 11.5 million to € 10.2 million. This led to an improved cost of materials ratio compared to the same period of the previous year. Overall, the BioProducts segment's adjusted EBITDA fell from € 2.2 million to € 1.7 million, primarily due to the lower revenues.

The BioScience segment generated revenues of € 5.8 million in the reporting period, which corresponds to a decrease of 5.3% compared to the same period of the previous year (€ 6.1 million). Thanks to stringent project controlling and good general cost control, the segment's adjusted EBITDA was maintained at the previous year's level of € 0.0 million.

Revenues in the BioIncubator segment increased significantly from € 0.2 million to € 1.6 million in the reporting period compared to the same period of the previous year. A large milestone in the deucrictibant project (PHA 121) was successfully achieved in the reporting quarter, making a significant contribution to the growth in revenues. The strong revenue growth is also reflected in the segment's adjusted EBITDA, which improved from € -1.5 million in the previous year to € -0.5 million. The segment continues to be characterised by high investments of € 1.5 million in the area of genome editing under the brand name Akribion Genomics.

The BRAIN Biotech Holding segment mainly includes personnel expenses and other expenses for Group administration, further development of the BRAIN Biotech Group, stock exchange listing and M&A activities. The segment's adjusted EBITDA totalled € -1.7 million and was therefore only slightly below the previous year's level (€ -1.6 million).

2. Net assets

Non-current assets decreased from € 45.5 million as at 30 September 2023 to € 43.9 million as at 31 March 2024, which is mainly driven by depreciation of fixed assets and amortisation intangible assets.

Current assets increased from € 25.5 million to € 29.3 million. This increase is mainly due to an increase in cash and cash equivalents.

Equity decreased from € 23.0 million as at 30 September 2023 to € 19.6 million as at 31 March 2024, mainly due to the negative result for the period (€ -4.6 million). On the other hand, there was an increase in the Capital reserve due to the issuing of convertible bonds in the amount of € 5.0 million (of which the allocated equity share is € 0.6 million) and the periodic recognition of the current employee participation programmes (€ 0.4 million).

The increase in non-current liabilities from € 30.4 million to € 39.1 million is due to an increase in non-current financial liabilities. These include the addition of the discounted financial liability component of the convertible bonds issued in the amount of € 4.4 million.

Current liabilities, on the other hand, decreased from € 17.5 million to € 14.6 million. This was mainly due to lower financial liabilities as a result of scheduled repayments and lower trade payables as at the reporting date.

3. Financial position

The Group's gross cash flow amounted to € -4.4 million in the reporting period compared to € -2.8 million in the same period of the previous year. This is due to the negative result for the period and changes relating to deferred income recognised in the current period.

Cash flow from operating activities improved from € -5.6 million to € -3.2 million. This was mainly due to a reduction in inventories and the collection of trade receivables.

Cash flow from investing activities in the first six months of the current financial year totalled € -0.7 million compared to € 1.7 million in the same period of the previous year. The cash flow from investing activities mainly reflects investments in property, plant and equipment. The previous year was positively influenced by the receipt of the purchase price from the sale of L. A. Schmitt GmbH (€ +3.0 million).

Cash flow from financing activities totalled € 8.7 million in the first half of the financial year and reflects the cash inflow from increasing financial liabilities (€ 5.5 million) and the payment received for the convertible bonds issued (€ 5.0 million). This is offset by ongoing scheduled repayments (€ 1.8 million).

Overall, cash and cash equivalents increased from € 5.4 million to € 10.2 million compared to 30 September 2023, which is attributable to the combined aforementioned effects.

III. SIGNIFICANT OPPORTUNITIES AND RISKS

For a presentation of the risk management system and of potential opportunities and risks, please refer to the remarks on pages 66 ff. of the 2022/23 annual report of BRAIN Biotech AG.

The energy markets proved to be relatively stable in the reporting period despite temporary spikes in volatility. Increased price volatility can occur again at any time if the geopolitical situation becomes tense again. The tense total supply chain situation has continued to ease in the past period but remains stretched for individual products. Logistics costs are currently reacting very sensitively to geopolitical news and delivery times have been extended in some cases due to changes in shipping routes. In addition, a general slowdown in economic momentum poses a further challenge for the corporate sector. The general financing situation and financing conditions remain challenging, especially for growth companies.

IV. OUTLOOK

There are no significant changes to the business outlook compared to the outlook report presented in the 2022/23 Annual Report (page 65). Despite the risks presented, BRAIN Biotech AG is confident that it will be able to achieve the qualitative and quantitative targets it has set for this financial year.

BRAIN Biotech AG takes next step to optimize group structure
