1. OPERATIONAL PERFORMANCE

Discovery alliances growing significantly: supported by strong milestone income and core business growth, revenues were up 33% and the operating result was positive at € 0.3 m in H1 2010

For the first half of 2010, revenues grew significantly by 33% to € 25.0 m (2009: € 18.7 m), driven by multiple milestone achievements and strong growth in Evotec's drug discovery alliances. R&D expenses declined by 82%, and SG&A costs by 15%. On this basis, supported by the high margin milestone income, Evotec's operating result for the first half of 2010 was positive at € 0.3 m (2009: € 29.1 m loss). The Company operates on a strong gross margin of more than 40%. Liquidity including cash, cash equivalents and investments as well as on 31 March 2010, auction rate securities at the end of June 2010 increased over end of March 2010 to € 67.9 m; this strongest half year in the Company's history represents a solid foundation to develop Evotec to sustainable profitability latest in 2012.

2. DISCOVERY ALLIANCES UPDATE

Strong progress and significant milestone achievements in discovery alliances

Due to its scale, the seamless integration of drug discovery technologies and disease biology know-how, as well as its strong reputation in the industry, Evotec is ideally positioned as the partner of choice for integrated drug discovery alliances with the pharmaceutical and biotech industry. The Company recorded strong revenue growth in Q2 2010, achieved significant milestones within its multi-target collaboration with Boehringer Ingelheim, and signed a number of important new contracts and extensions.

New multi-year strategic alliance with Genentech started in June

In May 2010, Evotec signed a significant, multi-year, multi-target drug discovery alliance with Genentech, a wholly owned subsidiary of Roche. Within this alliance, Evotec will use its full drug discovery capabilities and expertise to prosecute Genentech targets.

Significant milestone achievements in a number of disease areas in multi-target collaboration with Boehringer Ingelheim During the second quarter of 2010, strong progress was made in Evotec's discovery collaboration with Boehringer Ingelheim. The first compound in this strategic alliance has advanced into clinical trials. With the initiation of the Phase I clinical studies, Evotec earned a milestone payment of € 2.0 m. The compound, which was discovered and optimised within the alliance, is being developed as a novel treatment for neuropathic pain. Evotec also received a first milestone payment of € 2.5 m within its recently started oncology programmes for the progression of a compound into pre-clinical studies. In July (after period-end) a similar milestone in the amount of € 2.5 m was achieved for the progression of another candidate into pre-clinical studies. In total, Evotec has now achieved 10 milestones within this collaboration that was initiated in 2004.

Very good progress in many alliances (e.g. Vifor, Ono); many new projects started

During the second quarter of 2010, collaborations with Epitherapeutics and Spermatech were extended and new screening projects were initiated with five partners. June saw the completion of the hit-to-lead phase of the collaboration with Vifor Pharma for the discovery of compounds to treat anaemia. A milestone was achieved for completing this stage and the programme now moves into lead optimisation. The ion channel project initiated within the Ono collaboration in October 2009 also moved into hit-to-lead studies.

3. STATUS OF CLINICAL AND PRECLINICAL PROGRAMMES

Proprietary pipeline projects progressing

Evotec is focusing its proprietary programmes on carefully selected core assets, which the Company is progressing towards clinical development. To reduce Evotec's risk profile and limit its R&D expenses the Company is seeking strategic product development alliances to further advance these developments. In the second quarter of 2010, Evotec started an important proof-of-concept study in its collaboration with Roche, continued evaluating clinical indications for the further development of EVT 401, nominated the final development candidate, EVT 501, in its H3 receptor antagonist programme and received BMBF funding to further progress this project.

Start of Phase II with EVT 101 in treatment-resistant depression

The EVT 100 (NR2B subtype selective NMDA receptor antagonist) programme is partnered with Roche. The proof-of-concept Phase II study in treatment-resistant depression with the lead compound EVT 101 started to recruit patients on 30 June 2010. The study, which is being conducted in the United States, has the main objective of studying the safety and tolerability of EVT 101 while also exploring the efficacy of this intervention. Approximately 100 patients suffering from treatment-resistant depression will participate. Treatment-resistance of patients will be confirmed in a 6-week prospective antidepressant

treatment phase preceding the actual 4-week double-blind treatment. If Roche exercises its buy-back option after completion of this Phase II trial, Evotec would receive an immediate \$65 m lump-sum payment in exchange for the assignment of all rights and would be eligible for further development, sales performance, and scalable double-digit commercial payments.

Good progress with early discovery programmes (e.g. H3)

In Evotec's H3 receptor antagonist programme, lead optimisation studies have resulted in the nomination of a development candidate named EVT 501. API (Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient) production will commence imminently for use in regulatory (GLP) toxicology and safety pharmacology studies. H3 receptor antagonists have potential in a number of CNS indications, including excessive fatigue associated with conditions such as multiple sclerosis as well as cognition impairment. The initiation of a Phase I programme is planned within the next 12 months.

BMBF grant for H3 receptor antagonist programme

In the second quarter of 2010, funding was secured up to the amount of € 1.5 m from the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) to advance Evotec's H3 receptor antagonist programme up to and through Phase I clinical studies.

4. EXPANSION INTO NEW DISEASE AREAS THROUGH ACQUISITION OF DEVELOGEN (AFTER PERIOD-END)

On 14 July, Evotec signed a definitive agreement to acquire DeveloGen AG, a biopharmaceutical company engaged in the discovery of novel therapeutic approaches for the treatment of metabolic and endocrine disorders. The transaction adds two complementary alliances - one with Boehringer Ingelheim and one with Andromeda (Teva) - to Evotec's portfolio of core assets. In addition, it augments and complements Evotec's high-end drug discovery platform and capability with DeveloGen's target discovery, validation and in vivo/in vitro pharmacology expertise and adds core disease biology know-how in metabolic diseases and endocrine disorders. These skills further enhance Evotec's ability to deliver high quality, innovative solutions to its partners on a global scale.

The purchase price consists of up to € 14 m in Evotec shares from authorised capital and an earn-out component in cash based on future revenues generated from the acquired programmes. Of the € 14 m in shares, € 8 m (4 m shares) will be issued at closing which is expected in August 2010. Up to 3 m shares will be held in escrow and the release of such shares will be conditional on certain company events and representations.

5. GUIDANCE

Revenue guidance for 2010 raised; liquidity guidance confirmed despite acquisition

Based on a strong H1 2010 operational performance, Evotec raised its revenue guidance for the fiscal year 2010 published on 25 March 2010: Total Group revenues are now expected to grow by more than 20%, leading to revenues of € 52 to 54 m (before: € 48 to 50 m). All other financial targets remain unchanged (see page 9). Despite € 2 m cash to be used in the acquisition of DeveloGen, mainly for DeveloGen working capital needs, Evotec also confirms its 2010 year-end liquidity target of >€ 64 m at constant year-end 2009 currencies.

6. MANAGEMENT TEAM

Enlarged management team established to accelerate growth

Colin Bond new CFO

Evotec appointed Colin Bond as its new Chief Financial Officer and member of the Management Board effective 12 August 2010. Mr Bond has almost 25 years of experience in leading Finance positions, most recently as Chief Financial Officer at Novelis Europe, Switzerland. During his early career he worked as pharmacist, auditor and management consultant for Procter & Gamble, Arthur Andersen and PricewaterhouseCoopers respectively. He moved into industry with Great Lakes Chemicals and then became Chief Finance Officer of Jet Aviation Group before becoming CFO EMEA for Ecolab. Mr Bond is a qualified chartered accountant and pharmacist. In addition, he received his MBA degree from London Business School. He has been an Associate Lecturer in Financial Strategy on the MBA programme of the Open University Business School for the past twelve years.

Cord Dohrmann new CSO

Evotec appointed Cord Dohrmann, Ph.D., as Chief Scientific Officer and member of the Management Board starting 1 September 2010. Dr Dohrmann has spent over 20 years in biomedical research at leading academic institutions including the Max-Planck Institute, Harvard Medical School and the Massachusetts' General Hospital. For the last 10 years, Dr Dohrmann served DeveloGen in various management positions, including Chief Executive Officer, growing DeveloGen from a start-up to internationally recognised metabolic disease company with a focus on developing highly innovative therapies for diabetes. Dr Dohrmann completed his MA in biology at the Max Planck Institute in Tuebingen and earned his Ph.D. at Harvard Medical School.

Klaus Maleck assumes new responsibility in Corporate Development

Following successful restructuring of the Company, Dr Klaus Maleck, Evotec's current Chief Financial Officer, will assume a new role within the Management Board of the Company and will take responsibility for all Corporate Development activities, including licensing of proprietary discovery and development projects, strategy and M&A.

Strengthening of Business Development group

During the second quarter of 2010, Evotec strengthened its Business Development capability through the appointments of Dr Steve Hutchins and Dr Brian Moloney to the global business development team. Steve Hutchins joins from WuXiPharma where he served as VP Corporate Development, and prior to this he held a number of positions in Strategic Outsourcing at Merck Research Laboratories. Brian Moloney joins from BioDuro (China) where he was VP Business Development & Collaboration Management, and prior to this he held senior scientific management roles in Evotec. Both bring considerable experience in tactical and strategic Business Development in Evotec's markets.

A. REPORT ON THE FINANCIAL SITUATION AND RESULTS

1. RESULTS

Revenues

Evotec's revenues for the first half of 2010 amounted to € 25.0 m, an increase of 33% compared to the same period of the previous year

(2009: € 18.7 m). At constant 2009 exchange rates, revenues were
€ 24.8 m. Growth was driven by significant milestone achievements in
Evotec's collaboration with Boehringer Ingelheim, contributions from
the acquired business Evotec (India) Private Ltd., strong performance
of the core drug discovery alliance business, as well as a higher portion
recognised from the upfront payment for the EVT 100 compound
family from Roche compared to H1 2009. Supported by the € 4.6 m
milestone and license income in the second quarter 2010 (Q2 2009: €
1.8 m royalty and license income), Q2 revenue growth was 44%.
Geographically, 50% of Evotec's revenues were generated from
Europe, 35% from the US, and 15% from Japan and the Rest of the
World. This compares to 45%, 43% and 12%, respectively, in the
same period of the previous year. The relatively higher contribution of
European and Japanese revenues to Group revenues reflects the
Boehringer Ingelheim milestone payments and the expanded
partnership with Ono Pharmaceutical.
Operating cost structure Costs of revenue for the first half of 2010 amounted to € 13.7 m
(2009: € 11.7 m) yielding a strong gross margin of 45.1% (2009:
37.6%). At constant 2009 currencies, gross margin would have been
slightly higher at 46.0%. The margin increase over 2009 is attributable
primarily to the significant high margin milestone payments received
from Boehringer Ingelheim as well as a higher amount of the upfront
payment from Roche recognised in the period.
Gross margins in the future may continue to be somewhat volatile, and
significantly depend on the amount of potential milestone or out
licensing payments.
R&D expenditure for the first half of 2010 decreased by 82% to € 2.9
m (2009: € 16.3 m). The decrease resulted from a focus on fewer core
programmes, from the reduction of early discovery programmes, and
from the closure of Evotec's US site following the implementation of
the 'Evotec 2012 – Action Plan to Focus and Grow'. In addition, costs
for the development of the EVT 100 compound family are now fully
borne by Roche, while they were still included in Evotec's R&D
expenses for the majority of the first quarter 2009.
SG&A expenses for the first half of 2010 decreased by 15% to € 7.7
m (2009: € 9.0 m), reflecting Evotec's restructuring and cost saving
measures. SG&A expenses of € 4.4 m in the second quarter included
transaction costs for the DeveloGen acquisition and recruitment costs
to support the growth of Evotec's discovery alliances.
Other operating income and expenses resulted primarily from the
reimbursement of expenses incurred for the clinical programmes with
EVT 101 and EVT 103 by Roche.
Financial results Evotec's operating result for the first half of 2010 was positive at €
0.3 m (2009: € 29.1 m loss). This significant improvement is mainly a
result of the Company's strong top-line performance, which was
supported by high milestone income in the period, as well as its
significant reductions in operating expenses mentioned above. In
addition, the first half of the prior year included an impairment charge
of € 6.6 m for the VR1 (vanilloid receptor 1) antagonist programme
and € 4.1 m of restructuring expenses.
Net income was € 0.1 m (2009: net loss of € 30.4 m). The net
income was mainly impacted by three non-cash items: positively, by
the realisation of the put option and resulting sale of auction rate
securities (€ 0.4 m, net) and, negatively, by a foreign exchange loss (€

0.4 m) mainly from the valuation of a foreign currency contract and deferred tax expenses (€ 0.4 m). Net loss per share for the first half of 2010 was € 0.00 (2009: € 0.29).

2. FINANCING AND FINANCIAL POSITION

Cash flow and liquidity

Based on a significantly improved net result compared to the first half of 2009, cash flow used in operating activities for the first half of 2010 decreased significantly to € (5.1) m from € (19.5) m in 2009. The negative cash flow resulted from an increase in working capital, mainly driven by a not yet received milestone payment, regular bonus payments and prepaid expenses due at the beginning of each year. Cash flow used in operating activities is expected to continue to improve over the next quarters.

"Adjustments to reconcile net loss to net cash used in operating activities" included mainly amortisation (€ 0.3 m), depreciation (€ 2.0 m) and gains and losses from the realisation of the put option and resulting sale of auction rate securities (€ 0.4 m, net).

Cash flow from investing activities was € 5.9 m. It resulted from the proceeds from the sale of auctions rate securities (€ 11.4 m) and a net cash decrease and respective increase in investments in the amount of € 3.9 m from transactions involving investments in money market funds. Capital expenditures amounted to € 1.6 m. Cash flow from financing activities was € (0.6) m and related mainly to the repayment of bank loans and purchase of treasury

shares. Liquidity, which includes cash and cash equivalents (€ 33.4 m) and investments (€ 34.5 m), but still excludes the June € 2.0 m Boehringer Ingelheim milestone. At the end of June 2010 liquidity amounted to € 67.9 m (31 December 2009 (including auction rate securities): € 70.6 m). The put option for the auction rate securities1 was realised during the second quarter, resulting in the sale of the auction rate securities and inclusion of the respective € 11.4 m in cash and cash equivalents.

3. ASSETS AND LIABILITIES

Trade accounts receivables increased to € 6.8 m compared to 31 December 2009 mainly resulting from a still outstanding milestone payment from Boehringer Ingelheim. Other current financial assets increased to € 2.5 m due to not yet charged expenses for the EVT 100 series to Roche. Prepaid expenses and other current assets increased to € 2.6 m as a result of prepaid expenses such as payments for insurances and maintenance contracts due at the beginning of each year.

Trade accounts payable increased to € 5.6 m, mainly as a result of accrued outstanding invoices for clinical trials for the EVT 100 series which will be reimbursed by Roche. Provisions decreased to € 2.4 m. The decrease is mainly the consequence of regular bonuses paid in March 2010. Non-current deferred revenues decreased to € 0.4 m mainly due to recognition of the first half revenue portion of the Roche upfront payment for the EVT 100 compound family.

The changes in the liquidity position are explained above. More details and all further material changes of assets and liabilities during the first half of 2010 are described in the Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements.

Evotec's capital structure is unchanged compared to the end of 2009. The total number of ordinary shares outstanding as of the date of this

report is 108,838,715.

Evotec's equity ratio as of 30 June 2010 continued to be high at 78.8% (31 December 2009: 76.0%).

4. HUMAN RESOURCES

Employees

At the end of June 2010, following Evotec's restructuring (-83 people) and the subsequent strategic acquisition of RSIPL and the Zebrafish operation (+180 people) in 2009, 475 people were employed within the Evotec Group (end of June 2009: 370 employees). During the second quarter headcount increased by 7 people to support the growth of Evotec's discovery alliances. The acquisition of DeveloGen will result in an increased headcount of approximately 20 people.

Stock-based compensation

In the second quarter of 2010, 1,099,250 options were granted to Evotec employees. No options were exercised during the first half of the year. As of 30 June 2010, the total number of options available for future exercise amounted to 5,846,406 (approximately 5% of shares in issue). Options have been accounted for under IFRS 2 using the fair value method at the measurement date.

In connection with the acquisition of Renovis, Evotec issued shares to a trust. These shares were meant to replace outstanding options and similar share-based compensation arrangements for Renovis employees. Of those issued shares, Evotec released 188,140 in the first half of 2010 from this trust, which, by the end of June, had approximately 1,331,850 remaining unreleased Evotec shares.

C. Important events after the end of the first half of 2010

On 14 July Evotec announced the signing of a definitive agreement to acquire DeveloGen AG, a biopharmaceutical company engaged in the discovery of novel therapeutic approaches for the treatment of metabolic and endocrine disorders, for up to € 14 m in shares plus

Evotec raises its revenue guidance and confirms all other financial targets for the fiscal year 2010

Based on a strong H1 2010 operational performance in the Company's discovery alliance business, Evotec raised its revenue guidance for the fiscal year 2010. Total Group revenues are now expected to grow by more than 20%, leading to revenues of € 52 to 54m (before € 48 to 50m). These assumptions are based on the strong order book of approximately € 40 m at the end of June 2010 (2009: € 33 m), expected new contracts and contract extensions as well as the achievement of certain additional milestones.

All other financial targets remain unchanged. SG&A expenses are expected to decrease due to cost reductions in all parts of the Group. In addition, Evotec expects R&D expenses to decrease considerably from 2009 levels. The Company will focus on key programmes and targets to invest approximately € 10 m in R&D in 2010. As a result, Evotec's Group operating result in the absence of impairment charges is expected to improve significantly over 2009. Despite € 2m cash to be used in the recently announced acquisition of DeveloGen, mainly for DeveloGen working capital needs, Evotec also confirms its 2010 yearend liquidity target of >€ 64 m at constant year-end 2009 currencies; Evotec has thus a strong basis to develop the Company to sustainable profitability latest in 2012.

Note: The 2009 and 2010 results are not fully comparable. The major difference results from the acquisition of Research Support International Private Limited on 31 August 2009. The operating results of RSIPL from the period 1 January 2010 through 30 June 2010 are included in the accompanying consolidated interim statements of operation for the six months ended 30 June 2010.

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited consolidated interim financial statements of Evotec have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) in conjunction with IAS 34. The accounting policies used to prepare interim information are the same as those used to prepare the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2009.

The interim consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required under IFRS for complete financial statements according to IAS 1. As a result, these interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended 31 December 2009.

In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.

2. BASIS OF CONSOLIDATION

Evotec acquired 70% of the shares of Research Support International Private Limited, India (RSIPL) including its 51% share in Evotec-RSIL Limited, India (Evotec-RSIL) as of 31 August 2009 and from this date onwards RSIPL as well as Evotec-RSIL were fully consolidated. Evotec used to account for Evotec-RSIL Limited under the equity method of accounting until 31 August 2009. Effective 30 April 2009, Evotec acquired 100% of the shares of Summit Asia Pte Limited, Singapore, which was fully consolidated from this date onwards. Therefore the consolidated interim financial statements for 2009 and 2010 are not fully comparable.

3. BASIS OF ESTIMATION

In the consolidated interim financial statements for the six months ended 30 June 2010, the Company has used the same estimation processes as those used to prepare the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2009.

4. ACQUISITIONS

The Company acquired 70% of the shares in Research Support International Private Limited, Thane, India (RSIPL) including its 51% share in Evotec-RSIL Limited, India (Evotec-RSIL). RSIPL is a company providing drug discovery and development services. The acquisition was effective as of 31 August 2009. The purchase price of T€ 2,373 in cash includes a potential earn-out which was calculated based on estimated future revenues and will be paid in 2010. The Company decided to early adopt IFRS 3 "Business Combinations" (2008) and the amended version of IAS 27. In the second quarter of 2010 the potential earn-out component was decreased due to decreased estimated future revenues. Based on those changed future revenue assumptions the Company reviewed the goodwill from the acquisition of RSIPL for impairment and concluded that no impairment has to be recorded in the first six months of 2010.

At 31 August 2009 the Company recognised a gain of T€ 559 to adjust its carrying amount of the investment in Evotec-RSIL which used to be accounted for under the equity method to its fair value according to

IFRS 3 (2008). The fair values of the assets and liabilities acquired from RSIPL were estimated based on the recognised amounts as of the date of the acquisition. Fair value adjustments have been recorded for a customer list in the amount of T€ 103 which has been estimated based on a discounted cash flow model. The resulting goodwill from the acquisition amounts to T€ 2,204. The net loss of Evotec for the six months ended 30 June 2010 included a net loss of T€ 507 from RSIPL and Evotec-RSIL as well as revenues of T€ 1,365.

5. TRADE ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE

Trade accounts receivables as of 30 June 2010 included an amount of T€ 2,000 relating to milestone income recognised in the second quarter of 2010.

6. AUCTION RATE SECURITIES

Due to the put options related to the auction rate securities (ARSs), which became effective on 30 June 2010, the ARSs were sold at par value on 30 June 2010 to the investment firm that initially sold the ARSs to Renovis.

The ARSs acquired in the Renovis acquisition were classified as available-for-sale and were measured at fair value with unrealised gains and losses recognised in other comprehensive income. As a result, the Company recorded an unrealised gain of T€ 906 from May 2008 until June 2010. This unrealised gain was realised through profit and loss on the date of the sale of the ARSs.

7. OTHER NON-CURRENT FINANCIAL ASSETS

Other non-current financial assets as of 30 June 2010 consist primarily of coupon bonds in the amount of T€ 3,024. On 30 June 2010, Evotec exercised the put options related to the ARSs. As a result, the put options amounted to T€ 0 (31 December 2009: T€ 550).The put option was classified as derivative in accordance with IAS 39 and was measured at fair value with gains or losses recorded in the income statement. As a result of the exercise of the put option, the Company realised expenses in the amount of T€ 632 in the first half of 2010. The Company, using a DCF model to measure the put option in prior periods, recorded expenses of T€ 785 in the first half of 2009.

8. PROVISIONS

The provisions as of 30 June 2010 in comparison to 31 December 2009 mainly decreased due to the payments for bonuses and severance in the first quarter of 2010.

9. NON-CURRENT DEFERRED REVENUES

The non-current deferred revenues as of 30 June 2010 mainly decreased due to the partial recognition of the Roche upfront payment in connection with the option to buy back rights to the entire EVT 100 family of compounds. The revenue recognition of this upfront payment will be spread over the expected duration of the Phase II study with EVT 101.

10. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On 14 July Evotec announced the signing of a definitive agreement to acquire DeveloGen AG, a biopharmaceutical company engaged in the discovery of novel therapeutic approaches for the treatment of metabolic and endocrine disorders, for up to € 14 m in shares plus performance-related deferred payments (earn-out).
