Focus on 3 major value drivers

  • z Development of a sustainable CNS-related pipeline
  • z Excellence in customer relations
  • z Cash generation from Services to support proprietary research

Agenda

  • 01 Evotec OAI Overview
  • 02 Building a Proprietary Pipeline
  • 03 Contract Research
  • 04 Q1 Results
  • 05 Strategic Summary and Outlook

Building a sustainable CNS related pipeline, solid financial position

  • z Acquisition of Evotec Neurosciences (ENS)
    • Share-for-share transaction
    • Pre-clinical portfolio, 1st compound to reach clinic in 2005
    • €20m of cash
  • z Equity financing
    • Pre-emption rights of existing shareholders
    • Committed subscriptions to raise €27m

Total funds available: > €60m

Pharma and biotech pressure is our opportunity

Drug discovery pipeline of the combined entity

NMDA receptor antagonists: Compelling science and market potential

  • z Extensive studies indic ate role for NMD A antagonists in:
    • Neuropathic pain
    • Parkinson's disease
    • Alzheimer's disease
  • z Memantine (non-selective )

  • Treatment of moderate-to-severe AD

  • Block buster potential (strong sales in US: US\$ 100m in Q4 2004, EU strong growth)
  • z Low therapeutic window of non-selective NMDA antagonists due to mechanism related side-effects

02 Building a Proprietary Pipeline

NMDA receptor antagonists: Limitations of non selectivity

  • z Block all NMDA receptors in all brain areas
  • z Therapeutic window is small (2x recommended dose Æ psychotic effects)

  • zMaximum efficacy compromised by dose limitations due to side effects

  • zHigh doses impair memory and learning processes

ENS 101: A selective NMDA NR2B antagonist

  • zNR2B subunit has a distribution in brain restricted to areas important in:
    • Alzheimer's disease (cortex, hippocampus)
    • Parkinson's disease (basal ganglia)
    • Pain sensation (dorsal horn, thalamus, cortex)

ENS 101: Antagonism of NMDA receptor NR2B subtype limits side effects and increases efficacy

  • z Side effects and beneficial effects are separated
  • zTherapeutic window is high (>10x preclinically)

  • zCan dose to get maximum efficacy

  • zHigh doses do not impair memory and learning processes
  • z May actually improve memory and learning processes

Drug discovery pipeline of the combined entity
