Chairman's Statement

Dear Shareholders,

I would like to express sincere gratitude to all shareholders for your consistent and strong support to Mabpharm Limited ("Mabpharm"). The recognition and support from our shareholders represent the greatest driving force for the Company's sustained high-speed innovative development. Leveraging our competitive innovative products, Mabpharm achieved outstanding pharmaceutical sales growth in 2025. We recorded sales revenue of approximately RMB646.1 million, representing an increase of 150.2% compared with the same period last year, and delivered profit for the first time. Looking ahead, with the successive launch of our innovative drug products, further development of the sales network and deepening global layout, Mabpharm will continue to achieve rapid growth in sales and profitability, and fully reward the recognition, support and assistance of Shareholders and all sectors.

Mabpharm has long been committed to the research and development as well as industrialisation of biological drugs for the treatment of cancer and autoimmune diseases. Since the approval and launch of its first commercial product, CMAB008類停®, the Company has successfully launched three core antibody novel drugs. Among them, CMAB009恩立妥® and CMAB007奧邁舒®, as exclusive products, have been successfully included in the NRDL as exclusive varieties following negotiations with the National Healthcare Security Administration. We have established a sales network nationwide, extending to thousands of hospitals at all levels, primary medical institutions and pharmacies across all provinces. Mabpharm achieved rapid sales growth in 2025, driven primarily by CMAB009恩立妥®, an innovative novel drug developed by the Company. This validates the correctness of the Company's long-term strategy focused on innovative drug research and development, as well as the strength of its R&D team. The Company will continue to pursue steady innovation in the future, providing more breakthrough momentum for its long-term development.

Against the trend of accelerating global accessibility of biopharmaceuticals, Mabpharm is fully positioning and expanding its overseas markets. We have conducted registration and commercialisation activities for our products in more than 30 countries and regions globally. As of December 31, 2025, CMAB008類停® has been approved by the drug regulatory authorities of Peru, Indonesia, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Malaysia and other countries for local launch and sales. Going forward, we will join hands with more strong partners to drive the overseas expansion of multiple pipeline products, and focus on the registration and clinical development of competitive products in the European Union and the United States. Against the backdrop of accelerating reforms in global biopharmaceutical regulatory policies and broad accessibility of innovative biologic drugs worldwide, the biopharmaceutical industry has entered a period of rapid global growth. Mabpharm is well positioned to seize the significant opportunity.

Annual Report 2025

Chairman's Statement

We have deeply engaged in R&D and innovation in the biopharmaceutical sector for many years and built a high-standard integrated platform for R&D, innovation and industrialisation. We master and continuously enhance the full-chain core technologies for innovative biologic drug development, and possess a large-scale, high-quality and low-cost manufacturing system for antibody-based novel drugs. Coupled with our strong preclinical and clinical development capabilities accumulated over the long term, we ensure the commercial launch of a series of drug candidates including CMAB807/CMAB807X, CMAB015 and the fully innovative drug CMAB017. Leveraging our increasingly strengthened robust antibody R&D technology platform and well-established bispecific antibody platform, we are developing multiple highly competitive innovative biologic drugs targeting unmet medical indications and undiscovered targets, securing sustained and explosive growth momentum for Mabpharm. Our total cell reactor capacity has exceeded 40,000 liters. Combined with our solid equipment, technical and quality foundations in antibody drug manufacturing, as well as economies of scale generated by domestic sales, we will maintain outstanding competitive advantages in national Medical Insurance negotiations, potential centralized procurement tenders and overseas competition.

The biopharmaceutical industry is one of the fastest-growing industries worldwide. To optimise industrial structure and safeguard public well-being, the Chinese government has implemented sustained healthcare reforms, which have significantly enhanced efficiency in China's pharmaceutical market. As a representative of modern pharmaceutical innovation, biological products, especially antibody drugs, are experiencing rapid growth in market penetration. Enterprises with competitive advantages in product quality and pricing have greatly benefited from negotiations with the NHSA and local healthcare security authorities over Medical Insurance pricing and centralized procurement. This trend will drive the development of China's biopharmaceutical market for a long period to come. In line with the overall healthcare policy reforms, we focus on high-unmet-demand segments including oncology, allergic diseases, respiratory diseases, gastrointestinal diseases and autoimmune diseases. We pursue innovation by targeting under-served market areas and establish comprehensive and flexible partnerships with leading domestic pharmaceutical commercialisation companies to drive rapid sales growth of our products and deliver value to society.

There is a booming demand for innovative biologic drugs in global markets, particularly in developed markets such as Europe and the United States, as well as in developing markets including the Gulf Cooperation Council countries and South America. In recent years, the penetration rate of biologic drugs worldwide has risen substantially year by year. Against the backdrop of global reforms and accelerated approval processes for biologic products, the economies of scale generated by China's pharmaceutical policy reforms have significantly strengthened the global competitiveness of China's antibody drugs. The reputation for high quality and strict compliance has driven growing global acceptance of China's innovative biologic drugs. In view of the above, we are proactively expanding overseas markets on a full-scale and all-round basis. We work closely with overseas partners to flexibly conduct new drug registration, research and development, and commercialisation for multiple products across various countries and regions, with a view to achieving explosive global sales growth of our products.

Mabpharm Limited

Chairman's Statement

The booming global biopharmaceutical market, the technological upgrading of China's pharmaceutical industry, as well as reforms of healthcare and medical insurance systems worldwide have jointly created a golden era of opportunity for the development of the global biopharmaceutical industry. A large volume of previously unmet potential demand is being transformed into actual market demand. We will maintain a long-term focus on the innovation of highly competitive innovative biologic drugs and proactively engage in the development of the global biopharmaceutical market in all dimensions. With our significant product quality advantages and established economies of scale, we will surely seize the golden opportunities brought by policy reforms and market expansion. We are committed to satisfying massive global market demand with high-quality biologic drugs and benefiting patients worldwide.

Mabpharm is poised to lead the evolving landscape of the global biopharmaceutical industry, underpinned by quality, inspired by innovation, and committed to sustainable progress!

Corporate Profile

We are a leading biopharmaceutical company in China, focusing on the research, development and commercialization of new drugs and biosimilars for cancers and autoimmune diseases. We strive to bring to the global market high quality and affordable innovative biologics through our efficient research and development ("R&D") system and low-cost pharmaceutical production capabilities, and develop differentiated therapeutic products by fully utilizing our extensive R&D experience. With the successive launch of newly developed drugs and the deepening of sales promotions, our industrialization business has entered a period of rapid growth. During the Reporting Period, we achieved sales revenue of approximately RMB646.1 million, representing a year-on-year increase of 150.2%, and the Company has achieved profitability of RMB57.1 million, representing a year-on-year increase of 144.7%. In the future, with the rapid development of industrialization and R&D, coupled with our active expansion into overseas markets, we will achieve even more outstanding results. Our drug pipeline currently consists of 9 monoclonal antibody drugs and 1 strong antibody drug, 3 of which approved for marketing are our core products:

✓ CMAB009 恩立妥® (cetuximab β injection): CMAB009 恩立妥® is a recombinant anti-EGFR chimeric monoclonal antibody innovative drug which has been approved by the NMPA for marketing in June 2024 (Guo Yao Zhun Zi S20240025). It is an exclusive product in the negotiation list under the Medical Insurance. The indication of CMAB009 恩立妥® is first-line therapy for RAS/BRAF wild-type mCRC in combination with the FOLFIRI regimen. CMAB009 恩立妥® was developed and prepared using a specific CHO expression process of the Company with an international PCT patent (PCT patent number: PCT/CN2016/070024), which has achieved significant therapeutic efficacy and clear safety advantage, and has been fully substantiated by the results of two completed clinical trials. CMAB009 恩立妥® is the third product of the Company approved for marketing, and is the first domestically produced anti-EGFR monoclonal antibody innovative drug with independent intellectual property for the first-line treatment of mCRC approved by the NMPA. CMAB009 恩立妥® is also expected to expand its indications to pancreatic cancer, head and neck squamous cell carcinomas, cervical squamous cell carcinoma and other cancers, as its administration together with a variety of small molecule drugs has tremendous potential for research and development and application in various other indications such as non-small cell lung cancer. The Group is propelling the clinical and registration work of CMAB009 恩立妥® targeting the aforesaid indications. For more details of the NMPA approval, please refer to the announcement of the Company dated June 25, 2024.

8 Mabpharm Limited

Corporate Profile

In August 2023, Taizhou Pharmaceutical, a subsidiary of the Company, entered into a business cooperation agreement in relation to CMAB009 恩立妥® with Jiangsu Simcere Zaiming Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd.* (江蘇先聲再明醫藥有限公司) (“Jiangsu Simcere Zaiming”), a company with remarkable tumor drug sales capability and proven track record, pursuant to which Taizhou Pharmaceutical granted to Jiangsu Simcere Zaiming exclusive commercial rights in respect of CMAB009 恩立妥® (including but not limited to sales management, marketing and promotion, formulation and adjustment of related strategies and the rights to obtain relevant benefits) in the Chinese Mainland.

According to relevant data published by the National Cancer Center, colorectal cancer, also known as colon cancer, has significant incidence in China with approximately 500,000 newly diagnosed cases per annum, ranking 2nd in terms of prevalence among malignant tumors. In relatively developed regions, the morbidity of colorectal cancer even exceeds that of hepatitis B. So far, patients with colorectal cancer in China are overly dependent on imported anti-EGFR antibodies, of which major products are often highly priced and may lead to severe hypersensitivity reactions among over $2\%$ patient population as evidenced in clinical studies. Accordingly, the first page of drug instructions approved by each country always bears a black box warning against severe adverse reactions. As the first domestically produced anti-EGFR monoclonal antibody innovative drug with independent intellectual property for the first-line treatment of mCRC approved by the NMPA in nearly two decades, CMAB009 恩立妥® has remarkable clinical efficacy and has a better safety profile without black box warnings as compared with imported drugs carrying black box warnings indicating severe adverse reactions, and it has received wide acclaim among doctors and patients. We delivered the first order of CMAB009 恩立妥® and the products were administrated to its first batch of patients within the same month during which it was approved for marketing. Besides, we have established an efficient and extensive marketing network. In November 2024, we conducted negotiations with the National Healthcare Security Administration of the PRC (the "NHSA") over the pricing of CMAB009 恩立妥®, an exclusive innovative drug, allowing it to be successfully covered by the pharmaceuticals catalogue for reimbursement under the Medical Insurance, which has started to benefit a wide population of patients suffering from colorectal cancer in China. In 2025, we continued to expand our market presence and achieved high-quality breakthroughs, with our market coverage reaching thousands of hospitals, pharmacies, and other terminals nationwide. We conducted over a thousand academic events, precisely reaching thousands of academic experts, and initiated numerous specific clinical research projects to empower the long-term development of product sales with sound medical evidence. The sales volume of CMAB009 恩立妥® surged during the Reporting Period. In pace with the expansion of hospital coverage, the development of prescribing habits among healthcare professionals and patients, and the addition of new indications, CMAB009 恩立妥® is expected to enter a sustained period of explosive growth.

Corporate Profile

✓ CMAB007 奧邁舒® (Omalizumab α for Injection): It was approved for marketing by the NMPA in May 2023 (Guo Yao Zhun Zi S20230030 for specification of 75mg/vial and Guo Yao Zhun Zi S20230031 for specification of 150mg/vial) for the treatment of patients diagnosed with IgE mediated asthma, which is the first domestic allergic asthma therapeutic antibody new drug in China approved by the NMPA. In August 2023, CMAB007 奧邁舒® was also approved by the NMPA to launch clinical trials for indications relating to chronic spontaneous urticaria in adults and adolescents (aged 12 and above) who still show symptoms after treatment with H1 antihistamines. We are close to finishing the phase III clinical trial of CMAB007 奧邁舒® for treatment of urticaria. As an anti-IgE monoclonal antibody, CMAB007 奧邁舒® is also expected to expand its indications to chronic idiopathic urticarial, seasonal allergic rhinitis and food allergies. In the future, we will actively carry out various studies to rapidly expand the R&D and therapeutic applications of CMAB007 奧邁舒® in multiple allergic disease areas.

In 2023, Taizhou Pharmaceutical entered into an exclusive commercialization cooperation agreement in relation to CMAB007 奧邁舒® in China with Jiangxi Jemincare Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd.* (江西濟民可信醫藥有限公司) (“Jemincare”), a pharmaceutical company with remarkable market promotion capability and proven track record. CMAB007 奧邁舒® was included as an exclusive product in the negotiation list under the NRDL, and we successfully negotiated for its renewal and continued inclusion in the NRDL in 2025. As of the date of this annual report, we have put up our CMAB007 奧邁舒® for sale on all provincial pharmaceutical product procurement and GPO platforms across the Chinese Mainland, covering thousands of hospitals, primary medical institutions and pharmacies. During the Reporting Period, CMAB007 奧邁舒® recorded a rapid increase in sales volume as compared with the previous year. As an exclusive product included in the NRDL, we adopted a strategy that centered on peak leadership, regional deep cultivation, and practical focus to conduct nearly a thousand academic events. These activities reached nearly ten thousand academic experts across various levels, including core national academic experts, regional academic leaders, and key clinical practitioners, and we are implementing data analysis and studies on the efficacy and safety of CMAB007 奧邁舒® in the real world. Dozens of projects have been successively established by the asthma scientific research fund for CMAB007 奧邁舒® to study and broaden its evidence-based medicine information.

✓ CMAB008 類停® (infliximab for injection): It was approved for marketing by the NMPA in July 2021 (Guo Yao Zhun Zi S20210025) for the treatment of 1) ulcerative colitis in adults, 2) ankylosing spondylitis, 3) rheumatoid arthritis, 4) Crohn’s disease in adults and pediatric patients aged above 6 years old, 5) fistula Crohn’s disease, and 6) psoriasis, which have huge long-term unmet market demand (with more than 10 million patients in the PRC which is still growing). According to the regulations of the Medical Insurance, CMAB008 類停® has also been automatically included in the Medical Insurance.

10 Mabpharm Limited

In March 2022, Taizhou Pharmaceutical entered into an exclusive promotion service agreement with Kexing Biopharm Co., Ltd.* (科興生物製藥股份有限公司) ("Kexing Biopharm"), a company listed on the Science and Technology Innovation Board of Shanghai Stock Exchange (stock code: 688136), pursuant to which Taizhou Pharmaceutical granted an exclusive licence to promote CMAB008 類停® in the Chinese Mainland (excluding Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan regions) to Kexing Biopharm.

CMAB008 類停® has been marketed on the procurement platform across all the provinces within China and extended its footprints to thousands of hospitals of different levels, primary medical institutions and pharmacies. During the Reporting Period, CMAB008 類停® recorded a rapid increase in sales volume as compared with the previous year. We also launched multifaceted brand building activities for CMAB008 類停®, organizing over 1,000 market promotion activities including the "Care for Rheumatoid Arthritis" programme within professional academic platforms such as the Gastroenterology Branch and Rheumatology Branch of the Chinese Medical Association, and the Chinese Medical Doctor Association, reaching nearly 10,000 medical professionals. We fully demonstrated the clinical advantages of CMAB008 類停® as a "classic, potent, and economically preferred option", and established a national network of experts specializing in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). We are also working with medical experts to explore the application of CMAB008 類停® in systemic inflammatory response and cardiac injury after cardiac arrest, intestinal behet, Takayasu's arteritis and adult still's disease.

With the progress in both academic fields and contributions to society, CMAB008 類停® has secured remarkable market recognition, which set the solid foundation for its continued rapid growth in sales volume. The Company has also initiated cooperation with partners who have accumulated abundant overseas market resources over a long period of time to rapidly expand to overseas markets. At present, the Company has launched registration and market exploration in more than 30 countries and/or regions, completed GMP inspections in three countries, and has passed the GMP inspection certification in Brazil, a PIC/S member country. The new drug application of CMAB008 類停® was also approved by the medical products regulatory authorities of Peru, Indonesia, Pakistan, Bangladesh and Malaysia where we have finished product delivery for sales, and imminent approvals for market launch in multiple countries are also expected. For further details, please refer to the announcements of the Company dated July 2, 2024, December 27, 2024 and January 2, 2025 respectively.

(All the above products are collectively referred to as "Core Products").

12 Mabpharm Limited

Corporate Profile

Among our other drug candidates, CMAB015 (secukinumab) possesses remarkable efficacy advantages in the treatment of autoimmune diseases such as psoriasis, and has become one of the most rapidly growing biological agents in the treatment of psoriasis in China. We have completed the phase I clinical trials for CMAB015, completed enrollment for the phase III clinical trials during the Reporting Period and will soon complete the phase III clinical trials. CMAB807/CMAB807X (denosumab) has completed phase III clinical trials for osteoporosis, and has been under application and registration for full indication with reference to international precedents. The "strong antibody" new drug CMAB017 has obtained approval from the NMPA for clinical trial for the treatment of advanced solid tumors, including but not limited to colorectal cancer, head and neck squamous cell carcinomas and esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. We have initiated phase I clinical study for CMAB017. Compared with marketed EGFR antibody drugs, CMAB017 has better efficacy and is safer. We have also developed CMAB022 (ustekinumab), a biosimilar, which promises sound market prospect for the treatment of psoriasis, psoriatic arthritis, Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis, etc. We have enhanced our focus on the development of innovative drugs with differentiated advantages in our core therapeutic areas. Through sustained, medium-to-long-term strategic deployment, we aim to achieve breakthroughs in the research and development of new drug candidates with global competitiveness.

We have strong in-house capabilities in pharmaceutical research, manufacturing, pre-clinical and clinical development. We promote the global commercialization of drugs developed by us through business cooperation with leading and progressive domestic and overseas enterprises engaged in sales of pharmaceutical products. This approach enables us to capitalize on the economies of scale arising from the substantial sales channels and expert resources and experience of our business partners accumulated throughout the years in disease-specific fields, and to build up and enhance our own distinctive and efficient sales system with a focus on specific indications. We focus on the R&D of monoclonal antibodies. Our core R&D team members have more than 22 years of experience in this area, and have led three major projects under the "863" Program, also called the State High-Tech Development Plan, among other national-level scientific research projects.

We have five antibody drug production lines in operation in Taizhou, including the constructed production lines in the new R&D and industrial base in Taizhou, one of which, i.e., the 7,500L new GMP drug substance production line has completed the production of the validation batches for registration purposes, and a new preparation line with greater capacity has also passed GMP certification, bringing the aggregate scale of our cell reactor to reach 40,000 liters. In view of the rapid growth in product sales and the accelerated expansion into overseas markets, we are planning to initiate the construction of additional production lines to ensure market demand can be satisfied.

The solid equipment, technology and quality foundation we have in the field of antibody drug preparation will enable us to possess an excellent competitive advantage in future Medical Insurance exclusive negotiation and potential centralized procurement negotiations. Leveraging the competitive advantages in the R&D and mass production capacity in antibody drugs in the PRC, we also proactively engage in CDMO business without compromising our independent product R&D, and in 2025, we executed contracts for and implemented commercial-scale CDMO contract manufacture service.

We have seized and will continue to seize the tremendous market opportunities in the global biomedical industry, in particular those resulting from China's recent healthcare regulatory reforms, including new Medical Insurance measures and the reform of biological product approval guidelines in Europe and the United States. The primary focus of our R&D – monoclonal antibody drugs targeting cancers and autoimmune diseases – has substantial untapped clinical demand in China and around the globe.

Further, during the rapid growth of the pharmaceutical market in China, the central procurement under the Medical Insurance that may be extended to cover biological drugs in the future and the increased effort in national negotiations of exclusive products on Medical Insurance will restructure the pharmaceutical market in China to a large extent. We will actively participate in the national medical reform with our advantages in terms of advanced technology, quality and cost, as well as aggressive and flexible product cooperation model, and capture the opportunities presented during the policy reform so as to capture the huge unmet market demand in China.

With the popularization of biological agents, especially antibody drugs, in the global medical field, we have launched our global market expansion, successfully passed the GMP inspection certification in PIC/S member countries, been approved for marketing and sales in multiple overseas countries, and will further accelerate the registration and launching of our drugs in the international market. In 2025, with the clarification of biologics registration guidelines in various countries, we collaborated with partners to initiate market access efforts for multiple drugs targeting tiered markets, including the Europe and the United States, and expect that the registration activities for new drugs in Europe and the United States will be formally initiated in 2026.

Core Products

恩立妥® – CMAB009 (cetuximab β injection)

CMAB009 恩立妥® is a recombinant anti-EGFR chimeric monoclonal antibody innovative drug which has been approved by the NMPA for marketing in June 2024 (Guo Yao Zhun Zi S20240025). It is an exclusive product approved in the negotiation list under the Medical Insurance. The indication of CMAB009 恩立妥® is first-line therapy for RAS/BRAF wild-type mCRC in combination with the FOLFIRI regimen. CMAB009 恩立妥® was developed and prepared using a specific CHO expression process of the Company with an international PCT patent (PCT patent number: PCT/CN2016/070024), which has achieved significant therapeutic efficacy and clear safety advantage, and has been fully substantiated by the results of two completed clinical trials. CMAB009 恩立妥® is the third product of the Company approved for marketing, and is the first domestically produced anti-EGFR monoclonal antibody innovative drug with independent intellectual property for the first-line treatment of mCRC approved by the NMPA. CMAB009 恩立妥® is also expected to expand its indications to pancreatic cancer, head and neck squamous cell carcinomas, cervical squamous cell carcinoma and other cancers, as its administration together with a variety of small molecule drugs has tremendous potential for research and development and application in various other indications such as non-small cell lung cancer. The Group is propelling the clinical and registration work of CMAB009 恩立妥® targeting the aforesaid indications. For more details of the NMPA approval, please refer to the announcement of the Company dated June 25, 2024.

In August 2023, Taizhou Pharmaceutical has entered into a business cooperation agreement in relation to CMAB009 恩立妥® with Jiangsu Simcere Zaiming, a company with remarkable tumor drug sales capability and proven track record, pursuant to which Taizhou Pharmaceutical granted to Jiangsu Simcere Zaiming exclusive commercial rights in respect of CMAB009 恩立妥® (including but not limited to sales management, marketing and promotion, formulation and adjustment of related strategies and the rights to obtain relevant benefits) in the Chinese Mainland.

Management Discussion and Analysis

According to relevant data published by the National Cancer Center, colorectal cancer, also known as colon cancer, has significant incidence in China with approximately 500,000 newly diagnosed cases per annum, ranking 2nd in terms of prevalence among malignant tumors. In relatively developed regions, the morbidity of colorectal cancer even exceeds that of hepatitis B. So far, patients with colorectal cancer in China are overly dependent on imported anti-EGFR antibodies, of which major products are often highly priced and may lead to severe hypersensitivity reactions among over 2% patient population as evidenced in clinical studies. Accordingly, the first page of drug instructions approved by each country always bears a black box warning against severe adverse reactions. As the first domestically produced anti-EGFR monoclonal antibody innovative drug with independent intellectual property for the first-line treatment of mCRC approved by the NMPA in nearly two decades, CMAB009 恩立妥® has remarkable clinical efficacy and has a better safety profile without black box warnings as compared with imported drugs carrying black box warnings indicating severe adverse reactions, and it has received wide acclaim among doctors and patients. We delivered the first order of CMAB009 恩立妥® and the products were administered to its first batch of patients within the same month during which it was approved for marketing. Besides, we have established an efficient and extensive marketing network. In November 2024, we conducted negotiations with the NHSA over the pricing of CMAB009 恩立妥®, an exclusive innovative drug, allowing it to be successfully covered by the pharmaceuticals catalogue for reimbursement under the Medical Insurance, which has started to benefit a wide population of patients suffering from colorectal cancer in China. In 2025, we continued to expand our market presence and achieved high-quality breakthroughs, with our market coverage reaching thousands of hospitals, pharmacies, and other terminals nationwide. We conducted over a thousand academic events, precisely reaching thousands of academic experts, and initiated numerous specific clinical research projects to empower the long-term development of product sales with sound medical evidence. The sales volume of CMAB009 恩立妥® surged during the Reporting Period. In pace with the expansion of hospital coverage, the development of prescribing habits among healthcare professionals and patients, and the addition of new indications, CMAB009 恩立妥® is expected to enter a sustained period of explosive growth.

奥邁舒* – CMAB007 (Omalizumab α for Injection)

CMAB007 奥邁舒, a recombinant humanized anti-IgE monoclonal antibody, is our new monoclonal antibody drug for treatment of patients diagnosed with IgE-mediated asthma. CMAB007 奥邁舒 combines with free IgE to form an anti-IgE complex that inhibits the high affinity IgE receptor and thereby prevents the allergic response. The safety and efficacy of CMAB007 奥邁舒 have been confirmed by the results of four clinical trials on a total of 824 subjects who have been administered CMAB007 奥邁舒, which were the largest clinical trials of mAb treating asthma in China. Based on our clinical trial results, CMAB007 奥邁舒* can improve asthma patients' conditions with lower-dose inhaled corticosteroids and reduce the incidence of acute asthma attacks.

CMAB007 奥邁舒 has been approved for marketing by the NMPA in May 2023 (Guo Yao Zhun Zi S20230030 for specification of 75mg/vial and Guo Yao Zhun Zi S20230031 for specification of 150mg/vial) for the treatment of patients diagnosed with IgE-mediated asthma, which is the first domestic allergic asthma therapeutic antibody new drug in China approved by the NMPA. CMAB007 奥邁舒 was also approved by the NMPA in August 2023 to launch clinical trials for indications relating to chronic spontaneous urticaria in adults and adolescents (aged 12 and above) who still show symptoms after treatment with H1 antihistamines (acceptance number: CXSL2300377 for specification of 75mg/vial and acceptance number: CXSL2300378 for specification of 150mg/vial). We are close to finishing the Phase III clinical trial of CMAB007 奥邁舒 for the treatment of urticaria. As an anti-IgE monoclonal antibody, the indications for CMAB007 奥邁舒 are also expected to expand to chronic idiopathic urticaria, seasonal allergic rhinitis, and food allergies. In the future, we will actively conduct various studies to rapidly expand the research, development, and therapeutic applications of CMAB007 奥邁舒 across multiple allergic disease areas. We expect to file the NDA of CMAB007 奥邁舒 for the indications of chronic spontaneous urticaria with the NMPA in the third quarter of 2026, and expect to obtain NMPA approval for marketing in the fourth quarter of 2027.

In 2023, Taizhou Pharmaceutical entered into an exclusive commercialization cooperation agreement in relation to CMAB007 奥遜舒® in China with Jemincare, pursuant to which Taizhou Pharmaceutical granted an exclusive promotion right in respect of CMAB007 奥遜舒® in China (including the Chinese Mainland, Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan) to Jemincare. Taizhou Pharmaceutical will continue to possess all the rights and interests in respect of CMAB007 奥遜舒® in China (including the Chinese Mainland, Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan) other than promotion rights. CMAB007 奥遜舒® was included as an exclusive product in the negotiation list under the Medical Insurance, and we successfully negotiated for its renewal and continued inclusion in the drug list under NRDL in 2025.

類停® – CMAB008 (infliximab for injection)

CMAB008類停®, is a recombinant anti-TNF α chimeric monoclonal antibody that was approved by the NMPA (Guo Yao Zhun Zi S20210025) on July 12, 2021 for the treatment of: 1) ulcerative colitis in adults, 2) ankylosing spondylitis, 3) rheumatoid arthritis, 4) Crohn’s disease in adults and pediatric patients aged above 6 years old, 5) fistula Crohn’s disease, and 6) psoriasis, which have huge long-term unmet market demand (with more than 10 million patients in the PRC which is still growing). According to the regulations of the Medical Insurance, CMAB008類停® has also been automatically included in the Medical Insurance.

20 Mabpharm Limited

CMAB008 類停® is the first China-made infliximab approved for marketing, which is a monoclonal antibody biosimilar independently developed by the Company and one of the core products of the Company. CMAB008 類停® uses the CHO expression system, and is a monoclonal antibody targeting TNFα that specifically binds to TNFα and blocks the inflammatory cascade response caused by TNFα. The research we have completed has shown that, compared to other anti-TNFα drugs on the market, CMAB008 類停® has a stronger affinity for TNFα and a stronger glycosylation character, with rapid onset of effect, long-lasting efficacy, long dosing intervals and no hypersensitivity reactions. The results of our completed research including, clinical trials, non-clinical comparative studies and pharmacological comparisons of CMAB008 類停® have also shown that CMAB008類停® is identical to the original infliximab in terms of efficacy, safety, pharmacological profile and quality.

CMAB008 類停® is the first infliximab launched in the domestic market following “Remicade”, the original drug imported and sold by Xi’an Janssen Pharmaceutical Limited (西安楊森製藥有限公司). During the past few years, following the inclusion in the Medical Insurance and shift in habit towards adopting biological agents, the overall market share of infliximab witnessed a rapid increase, especially in the field of IBD, for which infliximab has become the key biological agent for treatment due to its rapid onset of effect and obvious curative effect.

In March 2022, Taizhou Pharmaceutical entered into an exclusive promotion service agreement with Kexing Biopharm, pursuant to which Taizhou Pharmaceutical granted an exclusive licence to promote CMAB008類停® in the Chinese Mainland (excluding Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan regions) to Kexing Biopharm.

CMAB008 類停® has been marketed on the procurement platform across all the provinces within China and extended its footprints to thousands of hospitals of different levels, primary medical institutions and pharmacies. During the Reporting Period, CMAB008 類停® recorded a significant increase in sales volume as compared with the previous year. We also launched multifaceted brand building activities for CMAB008 類停®, organizing over 1,000 market promotion activities including the “Care for Rheumatoid Arthritis” programme within professional academic platforms such as the Gastroenterology Branch and Rheumatology Branch of the Chinese Medical Association, and the Chinese Medical Doctor Association, reaching nearly 10,000 medical professionals. We fully demonstrated the clinical advantages of CMAB008 類停® as a “classic, potent, and economically preferred option”, and established a national network of experts specializing in IBD. We are also working with medical experts to explore the application of CMAB008 類停® in systemic inflammatory response and cardiac injury after cardiac arrest, intestinal behet, Takayasu’s arteritis and adult still’s disease.

With the progress in both academic fields and contributions to society, CMAB008類停® has secured remarkable market recognition, which set the solid foundation for its continued rapid growth in sales volume. The Company has also initiated cooperation with partners who have accumulated abundant overseas market resources over a long period of time to rapidly expand to overseas markets. At present, the Company has launched registration and market exploration in more than 30 countries and/or regions, completed GMP inspections in three countries, and has passed the GMP inspection certification in Brazil, a PIC/S member country. The new drug application of CMAB008類停® was also approved by the medical products regulatory authorities of Peru, Indonesia, Pakistan, Bangladesh and Malaysia where we have finished product delivery for sales, and imminent approvals for market launch in multiple countries are also expected. For further details, please refer to the announcements of the Company dated July 2, 2024, December 27, 2024 and January 2, 2025 respectively.

CMAB008類停® has been automatically included in the Medical Insurance in accordance with the regulations of the NHSA. As a biosimilar, its inclusion in Medical Insurance will help accelerate market penetration and sales growth, with no adjustment plans for the time being. Both CMAB007 奧邁舒® and CMAB009 恩立妥® are exclusive products in the negotiation list under the Medical Insurance of the NHSA. CMAB007 奧邁舒® completed its renewal negotiation on Medical Insurance in 2025. In response to patient needs, we further lowered its price to better benefit patients and accelerate the improvement of market penetration. The year of 2025 marked the first year of the inclusion of CMAB009 恩立妥® in Medical Insurance, which has played a significant role in the rapid growth of its market share and is expected to continue to deliver an outstanding effect in the long run.

Other Product Candidates

CMAB807/CMAB807X (denosumab) is a human immunoglobulin G2 ("IgG2") monoclonal antibody with affinity and specificity for human RANKL (receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-B ligand), which is a transmembrane or soluble protein essential for the formation, function, and survival of osteoclasts, the cells responsible for bone resorption. CMAB807/CMAB807X prevents RANKL from activating its receptor, RANK, on the surface of osteoclasts and their precursors. Prevention of the RANKL/RANK interaction inhibits osteoclast formation, function, and survival, thereby decreasing bone resorption and increasing bone mass and strength in both cortical and trabecular bones.

The increased osteoclast activity stimulated by RANKL is the medium of bone pathology in solid tumor with bone metastasis. Similarly, giant cell tumor of bone is composed of stromal cells expressing RANKL and osteoclast-like giant cells expressing RANK receptor. RANK receptor signaling promotes osteolysis and tumor growth. CMAB807/CMAB807X prevents RANKL from activating osteoclasts, their precursors and receptor RANK on the surface of osteoclast-like giant cells.

22 Mabpharm Limited

CMAB807/CMAB807X has completed phase III clinical trials for osteoporosis and applied to the NMPA for NDA regarding full indication application. The NDA of CMAB807/CMAB807X had been accepted by the NMPA in January 2025. We expect that CMAB807/CMAB807X will be approved by the NMPA for marketing in the second quarter of 2026 for the indications of osteoporosis, tumor bone metastasis and giant cell tumor of bone. We have also reached an agreement with our partner, under which the partner will be responsible for their commercialization in China and several other countries.

CMAB017 (anti-EGFR probody) is an innovative probody drug. Regarding CMAB017, the design of blocking peptide is expected to significantly reduce adverse skin reactions, gastrointestinal mucosa, etc. The selection of human immunoglobulin G1 ("IgG1") constant region can enhance the effect mediated by Fc fragment of antibody and thus improve the curative effect. CMAB017 is a biological class I new drug with better efficacy and safety than other EGFR antibodies available on the market, and it is expected that more new probody drugs will be developed by leveraging the research and development platform of CMAB017. CMAB017 is indicated for the treatment of advanced solid tumors, including but not limited to colorectal cancer, head and neck squamous cell carcinomas and esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. CMAB017 has been approved by the NMPA for clinical trials for the treatment of advanced solid tumors, including but not limited to colorectal cancer, head and neck squamous cell carcinomas and esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. Results of the completed experimental study on tissue distribution of tumor-bearing mice show that CMAB017 concentrates locally in tumor 24-72 hours after administration. We have launched phase I clinical trials for CMAB017. We are formulating the initiation plan for the phase II clinical trials, selecting the tumor types that best suit its competitiveness and offer superior efficacy for phase II and phase III clinical trials. It is expected to be approved by the NMPA for marketing in the second quarter of 2030.

CMAB015 (secukinumab) is a biosimilar candidate for secukinumab. Secukinumab is a fully humanized monoclonal IgG1 antibody. It mainly functions by selectively binding interleukin 17A ("IL-17A"), a key factor in the inflammatory pathway, and inhibiting it from binding with interleukin 17 ("IL-17") receptor, so as to alleviate the inflammatory reaction. Its indications include moderate and severe plaque psoriasis, psoriatic arthritis and ankylosing spondylitis. Secukinumab demonstrated significant therapeutic effect. Overall, as an IL-17A inhibitor, secukinumab demonstrated efficacy and safety in moderate and severe psoriasis and other related indications, providing patients with new treatment options. CMAB015 targets IL-17A for treating plaque psoriasis, psoriatic arthritis and ankylosing spondylitis. Secukinumab is the most effective cure for psoriasis at present, which offers significant efficacy and guarantees much more stable condition after drug withdrawal compared with peers, and has become one of the most rapidly growing biological agents in the treatment of psoriasis in China. CMAB015 has been approved by the NMPA for clinical trials of the treatment of plaque psoriasis, psoriatic arthritis and ankylosing spondylitis. We have completed the phase I clinical trial for CMAB015, completed enrollment for the phase III clinical trials during the Reporting Period and will soon complete the phase III clinical trial. We expect to file NDA for CMAB015 in the third quarter of 2026 and expect that CMAB015 may be approved by the NMPA for marketing in the first quarter of 2028.

CMAB819 (nivolumab) is our biosimilar drug candidate. CMAB819 has been approved by the NMPA for clinical trial. The phase I clinical trials have been completed. We expect that CMAB819 may be approved by the NMPA for marketing in the third quarter of 2029. Due to adjustments in biosimilar registration policies in Europe and the United States, the relevant clinical timelines and costs are expected to be significantly accelerated and reduced. We are in discussions with multiple potential partners to initiate a national multi-center phase I clinical trial to ensure rapid global market entry of the product. CMAB819 is indicated for the treatment of metastatic non-small cell lung cancer, hepatocellular carcinoma and head and neck squamous cell carcinomas.

CMAB022 is a candidate biosimilar product of stelara® (ustekinumab), targeting and binding interleukin-12 ("IL-12") and interleukin-23 ("IL-23"). It inhibits these two proinflammatory cytokines by binding to the P40 subunit shared by IL-12 and IL-23 and preventing them from binding to the cell surface IL-12 receptor β1. IL-12 and IL-23 play a key role in immune-mediated inflammatory diseases. FDA approved its use for treatment of psoriasis, psoriatic arthritis, Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis. According to the results of several large-scale randomized controlled trials conducted abroad (UNITI-1, UNITI-2 and IM-UNITI), ustekinumab has significant clinical remission and clinical response rate for patients with moderately to severely active Crohn's disease, as well as a high healing rate of intestinal mucosa. Not only can ustekinumab be used as an induction therapy, it can also be continued as a subcutaneous injection for maintenance therapy after a single intravenous injection, with good efficacy and safety during maintenance therapy. In addition, ustekinumab can also be used as a salvage therapy, and in the case of failure or intolerance of other biologics (e.g., anti-TNFα drugs), the use of ustekinumab can still achieve favourable results. CMAB022 has completed engineering cell construction, screening and laboratory scale process studies, and is undergoing pilot process scale-up. We expect to complete all preclinical studies and submit a clinical trial application in the fourth quarter of 2026; and obtain NMPA approval for marketing (for the psoriasis indication, and to apply for expansion to other approved indications) in the first quarter of 2031.

CMAB023 is an anti-TSLP IgG2-lambda monoclonal antibody, and a biosimilar drug candidate for TEZSPIRE (Tezepelumab). TSLP is a key epithelial cytokine in response to pro-inflammatory stimuli (such as lung allergens, viruses and other pathogens), which can be found at the top of multiple inflammatory cascades and will trigger excessive and sustained immune response to airway inflammation relating to severe asthma such as eosinophilia. Therefore, the early upstream activity of TSLP in the inflammatory cascade has been identified as a potential target in a wide range of asthma patients. Blocking TSLP can prevent immune cells from releasing pro-inflammatory cytokines, thus preventing asthma from deterioration and enhancing control over asthma. We have successfully developed CMAB023, which has completed cell line construction and is under process development. It is expected that CMAB023 will obtain marketing approval from the NMPA in the fourth quarter of 2030. As a broad-spectrum anti-allergic antibody drug, it covers broader scope of allergic patients, offers a better curative effect, and contributes significantly to mitigating the condition aggravation among patients with severe asthma.

CMAB016 is a candidate biosimilar product of Dupixent® (dupilumab) and a monoclonal antibody of the human immunoglobulin G4 (“IgG4”) subtype. CMAB016 targets and binds to the alpha subunit of the interleukin 4 (“IL-4”) receptor, blocking the signaling pathway of IL-4 and interleukin 13 (“IL-13”), and is approved by FDA for the treatment of atopic dermatitis, asthma, chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps, eosinophilic esophagitis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (“COPD”) and prurigo nodularis. In the BOREAS and NOTUS trials: the incidence of acute exacerbations of moderate-to-severe COPD at week 52 was significantly reduced by 30% and 34%, respectively, in the dupilumab-treated group compared to the placebo group. Both trials demonstrated rapid and significant improvement in lung function with dupilumab compared to placebo, and the benefit was sustained through week 52. CMAB016 has completed engineering cell construction, screening and laboratory scale process studies, and we expect to complete all preclinical studies and file a clinical trial application in the fourth quarter of 2026; and obtain NMPA approval for marketing in the third quarter of 2029. Due to adjustments in the biosimilar registration policies in Europe and the United States, the relevant clinical timelines and costs are expected to be significantly accelerated and reduced. We are in discussions with multiple potential partners to initiate a national multi-center phase I clinical trial to ensure the rapid global market entry of the product.

Research and development of new drug candidates

We have launched a series of follow-up R&D on new antibody drugs for the treatment of autoimmune diseases and tumor diseases as well as bispecific antibodies and bispecific proteins. We expect to successfully complete the screening of several new antibody drugs, cell banking and even start pre-clinical animal experiments and clinical trials, thus further expanding our product line and providing sufficient drug candidate pipeline expansion for our long-term development. We have enhanced our focus on the development of innovative drugs with differentiated advantages in our core therapeutic areas. Through sustained, medium-to-long-term strategic deployment, we aim to achieve breakthroughs in the research and development of new drug candidates with global competitiveness.

Research and development system

We have developed efficient R&D capabilities, broad and advanced preparation technologies, and low-cost drug production capabilities that will allow us to offer high quality and affordable innovative biopharmaceutical products to patients in China and other emerging markets. Within our product pipeline, CMAB008, CMAB007 and CMAB009 have been marketed and commercialized, while NDA has been filed for CMAB807/CMAB807X, and phase III clinical trials will soon be completed for CMAB015. We also own a number of patents for our core technologies, including antibody engineering and humanization technologies, efficient expression vector construction technologies, efficient clone screening technologies, as well as a proprietary R&D animal model. Our R&D activities are carried out by three core teams: basic R&D, clinical trials, and product preparation in compliance with cGMP. The operations, design, and construction needs of these three core teams are supported by an assisting engineering team. Our R&D teams consist of professionals who have extensive industry experience in biologics R&D and have gained valuable work experience at global pharmaceutical companies. Employees in our R&D teams possess strong academic backgrounds from leading institutions in immunology, molecular biology, oncology or monoclonal antibody development.

DRUG CANDIDATES COMMERCIALIZATION AND PRODUCTION FACILITIES CONSTRUCTION

Existing production facilities

We have two production bases in Taizhou, one of which, i.e., the G79 production base, has a floor area of 30,000 square meters, and is equipped with: (i) four 3×1,500L antibody bioreactor systems and related purification lines, (ii) an injection vial filling line capable of manufacturing four million units per annum, and (iii) a pre-filled syringes production line capable of manufacturing one million units per annum. Our production facilities have successfully passed the GMP compliance inspection for CMAB008, CMAB007 and CMAB009 by the Jiangsu Provincial Drug Administration and have commenced commercial production, and one of our production lines has passed the GMP compliance inspection by Brazil, a PIC/S member and other overseas countries.

Our Xiangtai Road production base located on a parcel of industrial land of approximately 100,746 square meters in the Taizhou Hi-tech Zone accommodates: (i) large-scale monoclonal antibody drug substance production lines with the scale of each operating cell reactor reaching 7,500L and planned scale of each cell reactor to reach 18,000L, respectively, (ii) an injection vial production line capable of manufacturing 10 million units per annum, and (iii) two drug product filling lines, one of which, i.e., the 7,500L new GMP drug substance production line has been under commissioning and trial production, process validation and GMP registration, and a new preparation line with greater capacity has also passed GMP certification. Our operating cell reactor has reached a total capacity of 40,000 liters.

In view of the rapid growth in product sales and the accelerated expansion into overseas markets, we are planning to initiate the construction of additional production lines to ensure market demand is satisfied. We believe our current production capacity is sufficient to meet sales demand in the market. Given the Company's overall high-speed sales growth and the increased production capacity requirements resulting from the shortened overseas registration cycles now underway, we have launched further production capacity expansion projects to prevent production capacity bottlenecks. The relevant funding will come from internal resources and partially from bank loans. The construction and GMP registration phase is expected to take three to four years. The overall construction plan is prudent and rational to avoid resource waste caused by excessive expansion of production capacity.

Marketing and distribution

Further, during the rapid growth of the pharmaceutical market in China, the Medical Insurance exclusive negotiation and potential centralized procurement negotiations may be extended to cover biological drugs in the future and the increased effort in national negotiations of exclusive products on Medical Insurance will restructure the pharmaceutical market in China to a large extent. We will actively participate in the national medical reform with our advantages in advanced technology, quality and cost, as well as the strong sales teams of our partners who possess profound experience in fields of specific diseases, and capture the opportunities presented during the policy reform so as to capture the huge unmet market demand in China. Leveraging China's strong capabilities in antibody drug development and industrialization, we have actively expanded our CDMO business without compromising our in-house product development. In 2025, we signed contract for and delivered commercial-scale CDMO contract manufacture service. Based on global market conditions and the drug registration and regulatory rules of various countries, the Company's core business is still the R&D and production of proprietary drugs of the Company, with the CDMO business serving as a supplementary business with a limited total sales proportion.

28 Mabpharm Limited

At the same time, with the growing global adoption of biologics, particularly antibody-based therapies, in healthcare, we have fully embarked on global market expansion. We have also started cooperating with partners with long-standing and profound resources in the overseas market to initiate the marketing registration process of CMAB008 類停® in more than 30 countries and/or regions, completed GMP inspections in three countries, passed the GMP inspection certification of CMAB008 in Brazil, a PIC/S member country and obtained the marketing approval for CMAB008 from the drugs regulatory authorities in Peru, Indonesia, Pakistan, Bangladesh and Malaysia. CMAB008 is on the verge of receiving marketing approval in multiple countries. In 2025, capitalizing on emerging opportunities from potential regulatory facilitation in the global biologics market, we launched comprehensive overseas market expansion and access initiatives for multiple drug candidates. In response to policy changes in Europe and the United States regarding the facilitation of biological product registration, we will accelerate the registration progress of our drugs in these regions. It is expected that in 2026, we will submit the first IND application to regulatory authorities in Europe and the United States. Currently, the Company's CMAB008 is undergoing registration in multiple countries, and overseas sales contributions are expected to gradually increase starting from 2027. As overseas registered products are progressively launching and covering more countries and regions, overseas sales are expected to gradually increase to account for more than 20% of the Company's total sales and profit after 2028. The Company's overseas market strategy is as follows: (i) adopt a co-development model with partners, under which the Company does not bear overseas sales and marketing expenses; (ii) for small and medium-sized countries and regions outside Europe and the United States, conduct direct overseas registration based on research data completed in China, with minimal investment; (iii) for drug registration in Europe and the United States, the Company also adopts a collaborative approach to avoid large-scale overseas clinical research investment as much as possible.

We sell our products to: (i) distributors that sell our products to hospitals, and (ii) direct-to-patient pharmacies and others. We have established our network of distributors in accordance with the national drug sales regulations. Our distribution model is consistent with industry practice and serves to ensure efficient coverage of our sales network while controlling our cost of distribution and account receivables. We intend to select sales providers and distributors according to their qualification, reputation, market coverage and sale experience. Sales service providers are expected to have long-term experience in prescription drug sales and a proven track record, while a distributor must maintain its business license and other requisite licenses and permits. A distributor must also maintain extensive hospital coverage in the designated region. A distributor must be capable of delivering our products to covered hospitals in a safe and timely manner. We plan to actively monitor the inventory levels of our distributors to increase the efficiency of our distribution network.

China's pharmaceutical market is highly specialized, and new drug access is subject to strict hospital administration regulations. The adoption of biological products still requires long-term market education and academic promotion, while effective commercialization of biological products relies on professional teams focused on specific subsectors. As the Company's products cover multiple distinct therapeutic areas, including oncology, respiratory diseases and rheumatology, building an in-house marketing team independently would entail substantial long-term investment and high uncertainty. We have therefore adopted a collaborative model with partners, leveraging their academic promotion teams with years of experience in the specific fields of each of our products to rapidly achieve market access and sales growth for all products. This represents our optimal choice in the current environment of refined social division of labor. Building on the Company's strengths in R&D and manufacturing of biological products, the Company will continue to focus on the development of a large portfolio of differentiated biological new drugs with diverse indications in the future. Collaborating with commercial partners with strong resources and experience is our long-term strategy to leverage strengths and avoid weaknesses of different market players across the biological products sector as a whole. This strategy has been proven effectively since the launch of our first product. We will also proactively apply this strategy to the expansion in international markets in the future.

Quality assurance

We believe that an effective quality management system for our raw materials, equipment and finished products is critical to ensure the quality of our services and maintain our reputation and success. To ensure that our products and services consistently meet high industry standards and requirements, we have also established a company-level quality assurance department to inspect the quality of our products and services. It is also responsible for the approval, organization and coordination of quality control and quality assurance procedures within each subsidiary. Facilities and equipment are subject to inspection measures such as united registrar systems, factory acceptance testing, site acceptance testing, installation qualification, operator qualification, performance qualification, and regular maintenance throughout their entire life cycles. Our manufacturing business lines are inspected in accordance with the PRC national laboratory quality control standard and the GMP management requirements; our research and development business lines are also inspected in accordance with the GMP management requirements.

FUTURE AND OUTLOOK

We have seized and will continue to seize the tremendous market opportunities in the global biomedical industry, in particular those resulting from China's recent healthcare regulatory reforms, including new Medical Insurance measures and the reform of biological product approval guidelines in Europe and the United States. The primary focus of our R&D – monoclonal antibody drugs targeting cancers and autoimmune diseases – has substantial untapped clinical demand in China and around the globe.

Under the implementation of the new Medical Insurance policy in recent years, the pharmaceutical market in China is undergoing significant market restructuring. Companies with more competitive advantages in quality and pricing have benefited greatly from the negotiations on Medical Insurance price between the NHSA and regional healthcare security administrative bodies at all levels and negotiations in relation to central procurement for drugs covered under the Medical Insurance. As a result, the overall market penetration has increased significantly during the reformation. This trend will drive the development of the pharmaceutical market in China for a long time into the future. Riding on the trend of the overall pharmaceutical policy reform, we will join forces with our partners to build a sales team in China with high efficiency and academic promotion as its core strategy, focusing on niche markets, such as gastroenterology, respiratory, rheumatology and oncology, with an aim to promote our products and cultivate the practice of antibody drugs application. We will actively monitor, and participate in, the negotiations of Medical Insurance, especially focusing on capturing the huge potentials brought by the negotiations of central procurement for biological products under the Medical Insurance. Relying on the significant advantages of our drugs in terms of quality and cost, we will capture opportunities presented in the significant increase in market penetration caused by the policy reform, effectively satisfying the unmet market demand in China in respect of biological agents with high quality products and ultimately benefiting patients.

The antibody drugs development in overseas markets has shown a rapid increase, and in recent years, there has been a growing trend toward increased regulatory facilitation for international biologics registration resulting in a huge unmet global market demand for antibody drugs, especially for those with PIC/S members as the core, and the Europe and the United States has long been plagued by the high prices of originator drugs. In light of the policy reform in China, the economies of scale of antibody drugs will greatly enhance the global competitiveness of Chinese antibody drugs. In view of this, we are actively expanding close cooperation with overseas partners to initiate new drug registration and launching new drugs in different countries and regions in a comprehensive and flexible manner with multiple products, with an aim to promote our products' global presence and accelerate their growth in the global market. We are confident that we will secure an advantageous position in the upcoming global biomedical market boom.

Continue to advance the clinical research and commercialization of our drug candidates

Over the short-term, we intend to focus on market exploration and sales of CMAB008, CMAB007 and CMAB009, and completing clinical trials and the eventual commercialization of our current pipeline of other drug candidates, including, in particular, CMAB807/CMAB807X and CMAB015. To bring our products to market, we aim to reinforce our R&D teams, particularly the clinical medicine team, through the provision of regular professional training and pushing ahead with the clinical trials for product candidates. We are working with partners to build a sales team composed of professionals with extensive academic promotion experience and strong competence. Our goal is to generate stable revenue stream and profitability through cooperation with leading enterprises in China and cultivating our in-house sales team to enhance our commercialization capacity.

Continue to maintain investments in advanced technologies and product development

We believe R&D is the key element to support our future growth and our ability to maintain our competitiveness in a global biopharmaceutical market. We plan to upgrade the development of our integrated technological platforms from molecular design to commercialized production, and focus on the R&D of biologics with huge clinical demand and the potential for sustained and rapid growth in China. In order to capture new opportunities in the biopharmaceutical market, we plan to continue increasing our investment in innovative technologies for the development of drugs with improved curative effects and less toxic side effects in order to maintain our industry leading position. We also expect to invest in talent to expand and enhance our R&D team. We focus on the development of innovative antibody drugs, particularly bispecific antibodies, where we can establish a competitive edge in specific therapeutic areas, with the development of new drug candidates possessing global competitiveness as the key to our medium-to-long-term growth.

32 Mabpharm Limited

Continue to attract and nurture high quality talent to support our rapid growth

Recruiting and retaining high quality scientific and technological talent as well as other leaders in R&D technology will be key to our success. We plan to leverage our close cooperation with elite universities in China and internationally to recruit and develop outstanding R&D personnel. We also plan to provide systematic and sophisticated training and development programs to our research teams in order to enhance and optimize their scientific and technical abilities to benefit our Company. Part of this strategy involves the creation of an incentive scheme to retain and motivate high-performing team members.

Establish global brand awareness and foster deeper and more extensive cooperative relationship with domestic and overseas renowned pharmaceutical companies

To build our brand internationally and to support our sustainable growth, we plan to in-license products from global pharmaceutical companies for sales in China and/or to transfer or out-license overseas product rights of certain of our drug candidates to other pharmaceutical companies. We have established collaborative partnerships with domestic and foreign pharmaceutical companies with overseas channel resources, and constantly seek more opportunities to cooperate with potential partners with sales resources, in order to enter and expand our market share in markets outside of China and to further broaden the geographic coverage of our business. As part of this strategy, we may take advantage of strategic opportunities for cooperation and mergers and acquisitions internationally to expand our pipeline of products for R&D development and sales in overseas markets.

Gender Diversity

Gender Diversity at Board Level

We recognize that the gender diversity at the Board level can be improved. Gender diversity is achieved in respect of the Board as it is not a single gender board. That said, we will strive to enhance female representation and achieve an appropriate balance of gender diversity with reference to stakeholders' expectation and international and local recommended best practices. We will also ensure that there is gender diversity when recruiting staff at mid to senior level and we are committed to provide career development opportunities for female staff so that we will have a pipeline of female Senior Management and potential successors to our Board in a few years' time.

The Company offers all-rounded trainings to female employees whom we consider to have the suitable experience, skills and knowledge of our operation and business, including but not limited to, business operation, management, accounting and finance, legal and compliance and research and development.

The Company is of the view that this strategy will offer chances for the Board to identify capable female employees to be nominated as a member of the Board in the future with an aim to providing the Board with a pipeline of female candidates to achieve gender diversity in the Board in the long run. The Board currently has one female Director. The Company believes that such merit-based selection process with reference to the Board Diversity Policy and the nature of our business will be in the best interests of the Company and its Shareholders as a whole.

Gender Diversity at the Company

The Company also attaches great importance to gender diversity of employees, and delegates the Nomination Committee of the Company to review the gender diversity of employees on a regular basis. As of the end of the Reporting Period, female employees accounted for 58% of the total number of employees, of whom females accounted for 9% of the total number of Directors, and 37% of the total number of mid-level and senior management members.

The Company plans to provide more opportunities to female employees in terms of recruitment and talent cultivation, so as to achieve a more balanced gender mix within the Company.

The Company believes that achieving gender diversity at the Company will be in the best interests of the Company and its Shareholders as a whole.

Details of the gender ratio in the workforce have been disclosed in the Environmental, Social and Governance Report of this report.

To the shareholders of Mabpharm Limited
(Incorporated in the Cayman Islands with limited liability)

OPINION

We have audited the consolidated financial statements of Mabpharm Limited (the "Company") and its subsidiaries (the "Group") set out on pages 219 to 311, which comprise the consolidated statement of financial position as at 31 December 2025, and the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, the consolidated statement of changes in equity and the consolidated statement of cash flows for the year then ended, and notes to the consolidated financial statements, including material accounting policy information.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements give a true and fair view of the consolidated financial position of the Group as at 31 December 2025, and of its consolidated financial performance and its consolidated cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (the "IASB") and have been properly prepared in compliance with the disclosure requirements of the Hong Kong Companies Ordinance.

BASIS FOR OPINION

We conducted our audit in accordance with Hong Kong Standards on Auditing ("HKSAs") as issued by the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants ("HKICPA"). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the consolidated financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with the HKICPA's Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (the "Code"), as applicable to audits of financial statements of public interest entities. We have also fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Independent Auditor's Report

KEY AUDIT MATTERS

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in our audit of the consolidated financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the consolidated financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. For each matter below, our description of how our audit addressed the matter is provided in that context.

We have fulfilled the responsibilities described in the Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the consolidated financial statements section of our report, including in relation to these matters. Accordingly, our audit included the performance of procedures designed to respond to our assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements. The results of our audit procedures, including the procedures performed to address the matters below, provide the basis for our audit opinion on the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

Key audit matter How our audit addressed the key audit matter
Risk of misstatement of research and development expenditures
For the year ended 31 December 2025, the Group incurred significant expenditures on research and development ("R&D") activities amounting to approximately RMB120 million, out of which approximately RMB58 million was recognised as R&D expenses in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income for the year ended 31 December 2025 and approximately RMB62 million was capitalised as intangible assets in the consolidated statement of financial position at 31 December 2025. Our procedures included, among others:
- obtained an understanding of key internal controls in relation to the accrual of the R&D expenditures, capitalisation of development expenditures and impairment assessment of intangible assets not ready for use and performing walk-through tests;
- assessed whether the capitalisation policy adopted was in line with IFRS Accounting Standards;

Annual Report 2025 213

Independent Auditor's Report

KEY AUDIT MATTERS (continued)

Key audit matter How our audit addressed the key audit matter
Risk of misstatement of research and development expenditures
Large portions of the Group’s R&D expenditures were service fees paid to contract research organisations, clinical site management operators and clinical trial centres (collectively referred to as “Outsourced Service Providers”). The R&D activities with these Outsourced Service Providers were documented in detailed contracts and were typically performed over an extended period. Recording of these expenses in the appropriate financial reporting period based on the progress of the research and development projects involves estimations.
Development expenditures are capitalised as intangible assets only if the capitalisation criteria set out in note 2.4 to the financial statements can be met. And intangible assets not ready for use are tested annually for impairment. Determining whether the development expenditures meet the capitalisation criteria and the impairment assessments require significant management estimation and judgements.
Related disclosures are included in notes 2.4, 3 and 17 to the financial statements. • checked contracts entered into with and progress reports received from Outsourced Service Providers on a sample basis to evaluate the key estimation adopted by management in setting up the accrual for R&D services received;
• evaluated the adequacy of the accrual of the R&D expenses by comparing the subsequent milestone billings received from the Outsourced Service Providers, if any, with the accrued R&D expenses at the year end;
• obtained certifications related to different stages of development activities and commercial and technical feasibility reports prepared by management;
• evaluated the objectivity, independence and competence of the external appraisers engaged by the Group to perform the valuation;
• assessed the reasonableness of management’s future forecasted cash flows and key assumptions including the estimated revenue growth rate by comparing to the Group’s historical financial performance, development plan, budget and financial projections.
• involved our internal valuation specialists to review the valuation methodologies and inputs adopted by the appraisers; and
• evaluated the adequacy of the disclosures in the financial statements.

OTHER INFORMATION INCLUDED IN THE ANNUAL REPORT

The directors of the Company are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Annual Report, other than the consolidated financial statements and our auditor's report thereon.

Our opinion on the consolidated financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

In connection with our audit of the consolidated financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the consolidated financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.

RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE DIRECTORS FOR THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of the consolidated financial statements that give a true and fair view in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards as issued by the IASB and the disclosure requirements of the Hong Kong Companies Ordinance, and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the consolidated financial statements, the directors of the Company are responsible for assessing the Group's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the directors of the Company either intend to liquidate the Group or to cease operations or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

The directors of the Company are assisted by the Audit Committee in discharging their responsibilities for overseeing the Group's financial reporting process.

AUDITOR'S RESPONSIBILITIES FOR THE AUDIT OF THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Our report is made solely to you, as a body, and for no other purpose. We do not assume responsibility towards or accept liability to any other person for the contents of this report.

Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with HKSAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these consolidated financial statements.

As part of an audit in accordance with HKSAs, we exercise professional judgement and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:

  • Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
  • Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Group's internal control.
  • Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the directors.

216 Mabpharm Limited

AUDITOR'S RESPONSIBILITIES FOR THE AUDIT OF THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

  • Conclude on the appropriateness of the directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Group's ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor's report to the related disclosures in the consolidated financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor's report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Group to cease to continue as a going concern.

  • Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the consolidated financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the consolidated financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

  • Plan and perform the group audit to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business units within the Group as a basis for forming an opinion on the consolidated financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and review of the audit work performed for purposes of the group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.

We communicate with the Audit Committee regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.

We also provide the Audit Committee with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, actions taken to eliminate threats or safeguards applied.

Annual Report 2025 217

AUDITOR'S RESPONSIBILITIES FOR THE AUDIT OF THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

From the matters communicated with the Audit Committee, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the consolidated financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor's report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.

The engagement partner on the audit resulting in this independent auditor's report is Mr. Leung Yat Him (practising certificate number: A37448).

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

2.1 BASIS OF PREPARATION

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards (which include all International Financial Reporting Standards, International Accounting Standards ("IASs") and Interpretations) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (the "IASB") and the disclosure requirements of the Hong Kong Companies Ordinance. They have been prepared under the historical cost convention, except for certain financial instruments which have been measured at fair value. These financial statements are presented in Renminbi ("RMB") and all values are rounded to the nearest thousand except when otherwise indicated.

The Group recorded net current liabilities of RMB99,744,000 as at 31 December 2025. In view of the net current liabilities position, the directors have given careful consideration to the future liquidity and performance of the Group and its available sources of finance in assessing whether the Group will have sufficient financial resources to continue as a going concern. Having considered the cash inflow from operations and unused banking facilities, the directors are satisfied that the Group is able to meet in full its financial obligations as they fall due for at least the next twelve months from 31 December 2025. The Group therefore continues to prepare consolidated financial statements on a going concern basis.

Basis of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries (collectively referred to as the "Group") for the year ended 31 December 2025. A subsidiary is an entity (including a structured entity), directly or indirectly, controlled by the Company. Control is achieved when the Group is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the investee (i.e., existing rights that give the Group the current ability to direct the relevant activities of the investee).

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
31 December 2025

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

2.1 BASIS OF PREPARATION (continued)

Basis of consolidation (continued)

Generally, there is a presumption that a majority of voting rights results in control. When the Company has less than a majority of the voting or similar rights of an investee, the Group considers all relevant facts and circumstances in assessing whether it has power over an investee, including:

(a) the contractual arrangement with the other vote holders of the investee;
(b) rights arising from other contractual arrangements; and
(c) the Group’s voting rights and potential voting rights.

The financial statements of the subsidiaries are prepared for the same reporting period as the Company, using consistent accounting policies. The results of subsidiaries are consolidated from the date on which the Group obtains control, and continue to be consolidated until the date that such control ceases.

Profit or loss and each component of other comprehensive income are attributed to the owners of the parent of the Group and to the non-controlling interests, even if this results in the non-controlling interests having a deficit balance. All intra-group assets and liabilities, equity, income, expenses and cash flows relating to transactions between members of the Group are eliminated in full on consolidation.

The Group reassesses whether or not it controls an investee if facts and circumstances indicate that there are changes to one or more of the three elements of control described above. A change in the ownership interest of a subsidiary, without a loss of control, is accounted for as an equity transaction.

If the Group loses control over a subsidiary, it derecognises the related assets (including goodwill), liabilities, any non-controlling interest and the exchange fluctuation reserve; and recognises the fair value of any investment retained and any resulting surplus or deficit in profit or loss. The Group’s share of components previously recognised in other comprehensive income is reclassified to profit or loss or retained profits, as appropriate, on the same basis as would be required if the Group had directly disposed of the related assets or liabilities.

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

2.2 CHANGES IN ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND DISCLOSURES

The Group has adopted amendments to IAS 21 Lack of Exchangeability for the first time for the current year's financial statements. The Group has not early adopted any other standard or amendment that has been issued but is not yet effective.

Amendments to IAS 21 specify how an entity shall assess whether a currency is exchangeable into another currency and how it shall estimate a spot exchange rate at a measurement date when exchangeability is lacking. The amendments require disclosures of information that enable users of financial statements to understand the impact of a currency not being exchangeable. As the currencies that the Group had transacted in and the functional currencies of overseas subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates for translation into the Group's presentation currency were exchangeable, the amendments did not have any impact on the Group's financial statements.

2.3 ISSUED BUT NOT YET EFFECTIVE IFRS ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

The Group has not applied the following new and amended IFRS Accounting Standards, that have been issued but are not yet effective, in these financial statements. The Group intends to apply these new and amended IFRS Accounting Standards, if applicable, when they become effective.

IFRS 18 Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements²
IFRS 19 and its amendments Subsidiaries without Public Accountability: Disclosures²
Amendments to IFRS 9 and IFRS 7 Amendments to the Classification and Measurement of Financial Instruments¹
Amendments to IFRS 9 and IFRS 7 Contracts Referencing Nature-dependent Electricity¹

2.3 ISSUED BUT NOT YET EFFECTIVE IFRS ACCOUNTING STANDARDS (continued)

Further information about those IFRS Accounting Standards that are expected to be applicable to the Group is described below.

IFRS 18 replaces IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements. While a number of sections have been brought forward from IAS 1 with limited changes, IFRS 18 introduces new requirements for presentation within the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, including specified totals and subtotals. Entities are required to classify all income and expenses within the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income into one of the five categories: operating, investing, financing, income taxes and discontinued operations and to present two new defined subtotals. It also requires disclosures about management-defined performance measures in a single note and introduces enhanced requirements on the grouping (aggregation and disaggregation) and the location of information in both the primary financial statements and the notes. Some requirements previously included in IAS 1 are moved to IAS 8 Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors, which is renamed as IAS 8 Basis of Preparation of Financial Statements. As a consequence of the issuance of IFRS 18, limited, but widely applicable, amendments are made to IAS 7 Statement of Cash Flows, IAS 33 Earnings per Share and IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting. In addition, there are minor consequential amendments to other IFRS Accounting Standards. The application of IFRS 18 is not expected to have a material impact on the financial position of the Group but is expected to affect the presentation of the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income and statement of cash flows and additional disclosure will be included in the financial statements.

Except for IFRS 18, the directors of the Company anticipate that these new and revised IFRS Accounting Standards are not expected to have a material impact on the Group's financial performance and financial position in the foreseeable future.

2.4 MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Fair value measurement

The Group measures certain financial instruments at fair value at the end of each reporting period. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value measurement is based on the presumption that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability takes place either in the principal market for the asset or liability, or in the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market for the asset or liability. The principal or the most advantageous market must be accessible by the Group. The fair value of an asset or a liability is measured using the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, assuming that market participants act in their economic best interest.

A fair value measurement of a non-financial asset takes into account a market participant’s ability to generate economic benefits by using the asset in its highest and best use or by selling it to another market participant that would use the asset in its highest and best use.

The Group uses valuation techniques that are appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data are available to measure fair value, maximising the use of relevant observable inputs and minimising the use of unobservable inputs.

All assets and liabilities for which fair value is measured or disclosed in the financial statements are categorised within the fair value hierarchy, described as follows, based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole:

  • Level 1 – based on quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
  • Level 2 – based on valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is observable, either directly or indirectly
  • Level 3 – based on valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is unobservable

230 Mabpharm Limited

2.4 MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Fair value measurement (continued)

For assets and liabilities that are recognised in the financial statements on a recurring basis, the Group determines whether transfers have occurred between levels in the hierarchy by reassessing categorisation (based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole) at the end of each reporting period.

Impairment of non-financial assets

Where an indication of impairment exists, or when annual impairment testing for an asset is required (other than inventories and contract costs), the asset’s recoverable amount is estimated. An asset’s recoverable amount is the higher of the asset’s or cash-generating unit’s value in use and its fair value less costs of disposal, and is determined for an individual asset, unless the asset does not generate cash inflows that are largely independent of those from other assets or groups of assets, in which case the recoverable amount is determined for the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.

An impairment loss is recognised only if the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. An impairment loss is charged to profit or loss in the period in which it arises in those expense categories consistent with the function of the impaired asset.

An assessment is made at the end of each reporting period as to whether there is an indication that previously recognised impairment losses may no longer exist or may have decreased. If such an indication exists, the recoverable amount is estimated. A previously recognised impairment loss of an asset other than goodwill is reversed only if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount of that asset, but not to an amount higher than the carrying amount that would have been determined (net of any depreciation/amortisation) had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in prior years. A reversal of such an impairment loss is credited to profit or loss in the period in which it arises.

2.4 MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Property, plant and equipment and depreciation

Property, plant and equipment, other than construction in progress, are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and any impairment losses. When an item of property, plant and equipment is classified as held for sale or when it is part of a disposal group classified as held for sale, it is not depreciated and is accounted for in accordance with IFRS 5. The cost of an item of property, plant and equipment comprises its purchase price and any directly attributable costs of bringing the asset to its working condition and location for its intended use.

Expenditure incurred after items of property, plant and equipment have been put into operation, such as repairs and maintenance, is normally charged to profit or loss in the period in which it is incurred. In situations where the recognition criteria are satisfied, the expenditure for a major inspection is capitalised in the carrying amount of the asset as a replacement. Where significant parts of property, plant and equipment are required to be replaced at intervals, the Group recognises such parts as individual assets with specific useful lives and depreciates them accordingly.

Depreciation is calculated on the straight-line basis to write off the cost of each item of property, plant and equipment to its residual value over its estimated useful life. The principal annual rates also estimated useful lives used for this purpose are as follows:

Transportation equipment 19% per annum
Furniture, fixtures and machinery 9.5% to 20% per annum
Buildings 4.75% per annum
Leasehold improvements Over the shorter of the lease term and 20 years

Where parts of an item of property, plant and equipment have different useful lives, the cost of that item is allocated on a reasonable basis among the parts and each part is depreciated separately. Residual values, useful lives and the depreciation method are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at least at each financial year end.

An item of property, plant and equipment including any significant part initially recognised is derecognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. Any gain or loss on disposal or retirement recognised in profit or loss in the year the asset is derecognised is the difference between the net sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the relevant asset.

Property, plant and equipment and depreciation (continued)

Construction in progress is stated at cost less any impairment losses, and is not depreciated. It is reclassified to the appropriate category of property, plant and equipment when completed and ready for use.

Intangible assets (other than goodwill)

Intangible assets acquired separately are measured on initial recognition at cost. The useful lives of intangible assets are assessed to be either finite or indefinite. Intangible assets with finite lives are subsequently amortised over the useful economic life and assessed for impairment whenever there is an indication that the intangible asset may be impaired. The amortisation period and the amortisation method for an intangible asset with a finite useful life are reviewed at least at each financial year end.

Research and development costs

All research costs are charged to profit or loss as incurred.

Expenditure incurred on projects to develop new products is capitalised and deferred only when the Group can demonstrate the technical feasibility of completing the intangible asset so that it will be available for use or sale, its intention to complete and its ability to use or sell the asset, how the asset will generate future economic benefits, the availability of resources to complete the project and the ability to measure reliably the expenditure during the development. Product development expenditure which does not meet these criteria is expensed when incurred.

Deferred development costs are stated at cost less any impairment losses and are amortised using the straight-line basis over the commercial lives of the underlying products not exceeding ten years, commencing from the date when the products are put into commercial production.

Leases

The Group assesses at contract inception whether a contract is, or contains, a lease. A contract is, or contains, a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration.

Group as a lessee

The Group applies a single recognition and measurement approach for all leases, except for short-term leases and leases of low-value assets. The Group recognises lease liabilities to make lease payments and right-of-use assets representing the right to use the underlying assets.

(a) Right-of-use assets

Right-of-use assets are recognised at the commencement date of the lease (that is the date the underlying asset is available for use). Right-of-use assets are measured at cost, less accumulated depreciation and any impairment losses, and adjusted for any remeasurement of lease liabilities. The cost of right-of-use assets includes the amount of lease liabilities recognised, initial direct costs incurred, and lease payments made at or before the commencement date less any lease incentives received. Right-of-use assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the lease terms and the estimated useful lives of the assets as follows:

Leasehold land 50 years
Buildings 2 to 18 years

If ownership of the leased asset transfers to the Group by the end of the lease term or the cost reflects the exercise of a purchase option, depreciation is calculated using the estimated useful life of the asset.

Leases (continued)

Group as a lessee (continued)

(b) Lease liabilities

Lease liabilities are recognised at the commencement date of the lease at the present value of lease payments to be made over the lease term. The lease payments include fixed payments (including in-substance fixed payments) less any lease incentives receivable, variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, and amounts expected to be paid under residual value guarantees. The lease payments also include the exercise price of a purchase option reasonably certain to be exercised by the Group and payments of penalties for termination of a lease, if the lease term reflects the Group exercising the option to terminate the lease. The variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or a rate are recognised as an expense in the period in which the event or condition that triggers the payment occurs.

In calculating the present value of lease payments, the Group uses its incremental borrowing rate at the lease commencement date because the interest rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable. After the commencement date, the amount of lease liabilities is increased to reflect the accretion of interest and reduced for the lease payments made. In addition, the carrying amount of lease liabilities is remeasured if there is a modification, a change in the lease term, a change in lease payments (e.g., a change to future lease payments resulting from a change in an index or rate) or a change in assessment of an option to purchase the underlying asset.

The Group's lease liabilities are presented in a separate line on the consolidated statement of financial position.

236

Leases (continued)

Group as a lessee (continued)

(c) Short-term leases and leases of low-value assets

The Group applies the short-term lease recognition exemption to its short-term leases of building (that is those leases that have a lease term of 12 months or less from the commencement date and do not contain a purchase option). It also applies the recognition exemption for leases of low-value assets to leases of office equipment and laptop computers that are considered to be of low value. Lease payments on short-term leases are recognised as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Investments and other financial assets

Initial recognition and measurement

Financial assets are classified, at initial recognition, as subsequently measured at amortised cost, fair value through other comprehensive income, and fair value through profit or loss.

The classification of financial assets at initial recognition depends on the financial asset's contractual cash flow characteristics and the Group's business model for managing them. With the exception of trade receivables that do not contain a significant financing component or for which the Group has applied the practical expedient of not adjusting the effect of a significant financing component, the Group initially measures a financial asset at its fair value plus in the case of a financial asset not at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs. Trade receivables that do not contain a significant financing component or for which the Group has applied the practical expedient are measured at the transaction price determined under IFRS 15 in accordance with the policies set out for "Revenue recognition" below.

Investments and other financial assets (continued)

Initial recognition and measurement (continued)

In order for a financial asset to be classified and measured at amortised cost or fair value through other comprehensive income, it needs to give rise to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest ("SPPI") on the principal amount outstanding. Financial assets with cash flows that are not SPPI are classified and measured at fair value through profit or loss, irrespective of the business model.

The Group's business model for managing financial assets refers to how it manages its financial assets in order to generate cash flows. The business model determines whether cash flows will result from collecting contractual cash flows, selling the financial assets, or both. Financial assets classified and measured at amortised cost are held within a business model with the objective to hold financial assets in order to collect contractual cash flows, while financial assets classified and measured at fair value through other comprehensive income are held within a business model with the objective of both holding to collect contractual cash flows and selling. Financial assets which are not held within the aforementioned business models are classified and measured at fair value through profit or loss.

Purchases or sales of financial assets that require delivery of assets within the period generally established by regulation or convention in the marketplace are recognised on the trade date, that is, the date that the Group commits to purchase or sell the asset.

Subsequent measurement

The subsequent measurement of financial assets depends on their classification as follows:

Financial assets at amortised cost (debt instruments)

Financial assets at amortised cost are subsequently measured using the effective interest method and are subject to impairment. Gains and losses are recognised in the statement of profit or loss when the asset is derecognised, modified or impaired.

Derecognition of financial assets

A financial asset (or, where applicable, a part of a financial asset or part of a group of similar financial assets) is primarily derecognised (i.e., removed from the Group’s consolidated statement of financial position) when:

  • the rights to receive cash flows from the asset have expired; or
  • the Group has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from the asset or has assumed an obligation to pay the received cash flows in full without material delay to a third party under a “pass-through” arrangement; and either (a) the Group has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, or (b) the Group has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, but has transferred control of the asset.

When the Group has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from an asset or has entered into a pass-through arrangement, it evaluates if, and to what extent, it has retained the risk and rewards of ownership of the asset. When it has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset nor transferred control of the asset, the Group continues to recognise the transferred asset to the extent of the Group’s continuing involvement. In that case, the Group also recognises an associated liability. The transferred asset and the associated liability are measured on a basis that reflects the rights and obligations that the Group has retained.

Continuing involvement that takes the form of a guarantee over the transferred asset is measured at the lower of the original carrying amount of the asset and the maximum amount of consideration that the Group could be required to repay.

Impairment of financial assets

The Group recognises an allowance for expected credit losses (“ECLs”) for all debt instruments not held at fair value through profit or loss. ECLs are based on the difference between the contractual cash flows due in accordance with the contract and all the cash flows that the Group expects to receive, discounted at an approximation of the original effective interest rate. The expected cash flows will include cash flows from the sale of collateral held or other credit enhancements that are integral to the contractual terms.

Impairment of financial assets (continued)

General approach

ECLs are recognised in two stages. For credit exposures for which there has not been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition, ECLs are provided for credit losses that result from default events that are possible within the next 12 months (a 12-month ECL). For those credit exposures for which there has been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition, a loss allowance is required for credit losses expected over the remaining life of the exposure, irrespective of the timing of the default (a lifetime ECL).

At each reporting date, the Group assesses whether the credit risk on a financial instrument has increased significantly since initial recognition. When making the assessment, the Group compares the risk of a default occurring on the financial instrument as at the reporting date with the risk of a default occurring on the financial instrument as at the date of initial recognition and considers reasonable and supportable information that is available without undue cost or effort, including historical and forward-looking information. The Group considers that there has been a significant increase in credit risk when contractual payments are more than 30 days past due.

The Group considers a financial asset in default when contractual payments are 90 days past due. However, in certain cases, the Group may also consider a financial asset to be in default when internal or external information indicates that the Group is unlikely to receive the outstanding contractual amounts in full before taking into account any credit enhancements held by the Group.

A financial asset is written off when there is no reasonable expectation of recovering the contractual cash flows.

240

Impairment of financial assets (continued)

General approach (continued)

Financial assets at amortised cost are subject to impairment under the general approach and they are classified within the following stages for measurement of ECLs except for trade receivables and contract assets which apply the simplified approach as detailed below.

  • Stage 1 – Financial instruments for which credit risk has not increased significantly since initial recognition and for which the loss allowance is measured at an amount equal to 12-month ECLs
  • Stage 2 – Financial instruments for which credit risk has increased significantly since initial recognition but that are not credit-impaired financial assets and for which the loss allowance is measured at an amount equal to lifetime ECLs
  • Stage 3 – Financial assets that are credit-impaired at the reporting date (but that are not purchased or originated credit-impaired) and for which the loss allowance is measured at an amount equal to lifetime ECLs

Simplified approach

For trade receivables that do not contain a significant financing component or when the Group applies the practical expedient of not adjusting the effect of a significant financing component, the Group applies the simplified approach in calculating ECLs. Under the simplified approach, the Group does not track changes in credit risk, but instead recognises a loss allowance based on lifetime ECLs at each reporting date. The Group has established a provision matrix that is based on its historical credit loss experience, adjusted for forward-looking factors specific to the debtors and the economic environment.

Financial liabilities

Initial recognition and measurement

Financial liabilities are classified, at initial recognition, as financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss, loans and borrowings, payables, or as derivatives designated as hedging instruments in an effective hedge, as appropriate.

All financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value and, in the case of loans and borrowings and payables, net of directly attributable transaction costs.

The Group’s financial liabilities include trade and other payables, amounts due to a related party and interest-bearing bank and other borrowings.

Subsequent measurement

The subsequent measurement of financial liabilities depends on their classification as follows:

Financial liabilities at amortised cost (trade and other payables, and borrowings)

After initial recognition, trade and other payables, and interest-bearing borrowings are subsequently measured at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method unless the effect of discounting would be immaterial, in which case they are stated at cost. Gains and losses are recognised in the statement of profit or loss when the liabilities are derecognised as well as through the effective interest rate amortisation process.

Amortised cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition and fees or costs that are an integral part of the effective interest rate. The effective interest rate amortisation is included in finance costs in profit or loss.

Derecognition of financial liabilities

A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled, or expires.

When an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different terms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified, such an exchange or modification is treated as a derecognition of the original liability and a recognition of a new liability, and the difference between the respective carrying amounts is recognised in profit or loss.

Offsetting of financial instruments

Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount is reported in the statement of financial position if there is a currently enforceable legal right to offset the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis, or to realise the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously.

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost is determined on the specific identification basis and, in the case of work in progress and finished goods, comprises direct materials, direct labour and an appropriate proportion of overheads. Net realisable value is based on estimated selling prices less any estimated costs to be incurred to completion and disposal.

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents in the statement of financial position comprise cash on hand and at banks, and short-term highly liquid deposits with a maturity of generally within three months that are readily convertible into known amounts of cash, subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value and held for the purpose of meeting short-term cash commitments.

For the purpose of the consolidated statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and at banks, and short-term deposits as defined above, less bank overdrafts which are repayable on demand and form an integral part of the Group's cash management.

Provisions

A provision is recognised when a present obligation (legal or constructive) has arisen as a result of a past event and it is probable that a future outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation, provided that a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.

When the Group expects some or all of a provision to be reimbursed, the reimbursement is recognised as a separate asset, but only when the reimbursement is virtually certain. The expense relating to a provision is presented in profit or loss net of any reimbursement.

When the effect of discounting is material, the amount recognised for a provision is the present value at the end of the reporting period of the future expenditures expected to be required to settle the obligation. The increase in the discounted present value amount arising from the passage of time is included in finance costs in the statement of profit or loss.

Income tax

Income tax comprises current and deferred tax. Income tax relating to items recognised outside profit or loss is recognised outside profit or loss, either in other comprehensive income or directly in equity.

Current tax assets and liabilities are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period, taking into consideration interpretations and practices prevailing in the countries in which the Group operates.

Deferred tax is provided, using the liability method, on all temporary differences at the end of the reporting period between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes, except that deferred tax is not recognised for the Pillar Two income taxes.

Income tax (continued)

Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary differences, except:

  • when the deferred tax liability arises from the initial recognition of goodwill or an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss and does not give rise to equal taxable and deductible temporary differences; and
  • in respect of taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries when the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences can be controlled and it is probable that the temporary differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future.

Deferred tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences, and the carryforward of unused tax credits and any unused tax losses. Deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences, and the carryforward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses can be utilised, except:

  • when the deferred tax asset relating to the deductible temporary differences arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss and does not give rise to equal taxable and deductible temporary differences; and
  • in respect of deductible temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries deferred tax assets are only recognised to the extent that it is probable that the temporary differences will reverse in the foreseeable future and taxable profit will be available against which the temporary differences can be utilised.

Income tax (continued)

The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred tax asset to be utilised. Unrecognised deferred tax assets are reassessed at the end of each reporting period and are recognised to the extent that it has become probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred tax asset to be recovered.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.

Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset if and only if the Group has a legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets and current tax liabilities and the deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on either the same taxable entity or different taxable entities which intend either to settle current tax liabilities and assets on a net basis, or to realise the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously, in each future period in which significant amounts of deferred tax liabilities or assets are expected to be settled or recovered.

Government grants

Government grants are recognised at their fair value where there is reasonable assurance that the grant will be received and all attaching conditions will be complied with. When the grant relates to an expense item, it is recognised as income on a systematic basis over the periods that the costs, for which it is intended to compensate, are expensed.

Where the grant relates to an asset, the fair value is credited to a deferred income account and is released to the statement of profit or loss over the expected useful life of the relevant asset by equal annual instalments or deducted from the carrying amount of the asset and released to the statement of profit or loss by way of a reduced depreciation charge.

Revenue recognition

Revenue from contracts with customers

Revenue from contracts with customers is recognised when control of goods or services is transferred to the customers at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Group expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services.

When the consideration in a contract includes a variable amount, the amount of consideration is estimated to which the Group will be entitled in exchange for transferring the goods or services to the customer. The variable consideration is estimated at contract inception and constrained until it is highly probable that a significant revenue reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognised will not occur when the associated uncertainty with the variable consideration is subsequently resolved.

When the contract contains a financing component which provides the customer with a significant benefit of financing the transfer of goods or services to the customer for more than one year, revenue is measured at the present value of the amount receivable, discounted using the discount rate that would be reflected in a separate financing transaction between the Group and the customer at contract inception. When the contract contains a financing component which provides the Group with a significant financial benefit for more than one year, revenue recognised under the contract includes the interest expense accreted on the contract liability under the effective interest method. For a contract where the period between the payment by the customer and the transfer of the promised goods or services is one year or less, the transaction price is not adjusted for the effects of a significant financing component, using the practical expedient in IFRS 15.

Revenue recognition (continued)

Revenue from contracts with customers (continued)

The revenue from a licence is recognised over time if all of the following criteria are met:

(a) the contract requires, or the customer reasonably expects, that the entity will undertake activities that significantly affect the intellectual property to which the customer has rights

(b) the rights granted by the licence directly expose the customer to any positive or negative effects of the entity's activities identified in (a); and

(c) those activities do not result in the transfer of a good or a service to the customer as those activities occur

Otherwise, revenue is recognised at a point in time when the customer obtains the control of the license.

Revenue from sale of pharmaceutical products

Revenue from the sale of pharmaceutical products is recognised at the point in time when control of the products is transferred to the customer, generally when the products are delivered and accepted by the customers.

Revenue recognition (continued)

Revenue from sale of pharmaceutical products (continued)

Some contracts for the sale of pharmaceutical products provide customers with rights of return and sales rebates giving rise to variable consideration.

(i) Rights of return

For contracts which provide a customer with a right to return the goods within a specified period, the expected value method is used to estimate the goods that will not be returned because this method best predicts the amount of variable consideration to which the Group will be entitled. The requirements in IFRS 15 on constraining estimates of variable consideration are applied in order to determine the amount of variable consideration that can be included in the transaction price. For goods that are expected to be returned, instead of revenue, a refund liability is recognised. A right-of-return asset (and the corresponding adjustment to cost of sales) is also recognised for the right to recover products from a customer.

(ii) Sales rebates

Retrospective sales rebates may be provided to certain customers once the products are sold to special sales terminals agreed in the contract. Rebates are offset against amounts payable by the customer arising from its purchase. The most likely amount method is used to estimate the variable consideration. The selected method that best predicts the amount of variable consideration is primarily driven by the volume of products sold to special sales terminals contained in the contract. The requirements on constraining estimates of variable consideration are applied and a liability for the expected future rebates is recognised in contract liabilities.

Revenue from exclusive right for the commercialisation

The revenue will be recognised overtime during the expected commercialisation period after the commercialisation authorisation from the local authorities is obtained.

Revenue from contract development and manufacturing agreement

The Group will recognise the revenue from contract development and manufacturing agreement at a point in time upon delivery of the control of rights of the deliverables and acceptance by the customer.

Revenue from the rendering of contract services

The Group will recognise the revenue from the rendering of contract services at a point in time upon delivery of the control of rights of the deliverables and acceptance by the customer.

Other income

Interest income is recognised on an accrual basis using the effective interest method by applying the rate that exactly discounts the estimated future cash receipts over the expected life of the financial instrument or a shorter period, when appropriate, to the net carrying amount of the financial asset.

Contract liabilities

A contract liability is recognised when a payment is received or a payment is due (whichever is earlier) from a customer before the Group transfers the related goods or services. Contract liabilities are recognised as revenue when the Group performs under the contract (i.e., transfers control of the related goods or services to the customer).

250

Contract costs

Other than the costs which are capitalised as inventories, property, plant and equipment and intangible assets, costs incurred to fulfil a contract with a customer are capitalised as an asset if all of the following criteria are met:

(a) the costs relate directly to a contract or to an anticipated contract that the entity can specifically identify;

(b) the costs generate or enhance resources of the entity that will be used in satisfying (or in continuing to satisfy) performance obligations in the future; and

(c) the costs are expected to be recovered.

The capitalised contract costs are charged to the statement of profit or loss on a systematic basis that is consistent with the transfer to the customer of the goods or services to which the asset relates. Other contract costs are expensed as incurred.

Share-based payments

The Company operates a share option scheme. Employees (including directors) of the Group receive remuneration in the form of share-based payments, whereby employees render services in exchange for equity instruments ("equity-settled transactions"). The cost of equity-settled transactions with employees is measured by reference to the fair value at the date at which they are granted. The fair value is determined by an external valuer using a binomial model, further details of which are given in note 30 to the financial statements.

The cost of equity-settled transactions is recognised in employee benefit expense, together with a corresponding increase in equity, over the period in which the performance and/or service conditions are fulfilled. The cumulative expense recognised for equity-settled transactions at the end of each reporting period until the vesting date reflects the extent to which the vesting period has expired and the Group's best estimate of the number of equity instruments that will ultimately vest. The charge or credit to the statement of profit or loss for a period represents the movement in the cumulative expense recognised as at the beginning and end of that period.

Share-based payments (continued)

Service and non-market performance conditions are not taken into account when determining the grant date fair value of awards, but the likelihood of the conditions being met is assessed as part of the Group's best estimate of the number of equity instruments that will ultimately vest. Market performance conditions are reflected within the grant date fair value. Any other conditions attached to an award, but without an associated service requirement, are considered to be non-vesting conditions. Non-vesting conditions are reflected in the fair value of an award and lead to an immediate expensing of an award unless there are also service and/or performance conditions.

For awards that do not ultimately vest because non-market performance and/or service conditions have not been met, no expense is recognised. Where awards include a market or non-vesting condition, the transactions are treated as vesting irrespective of whether the market or non-vesting condition is satisfied, provided that all other performance and/or service conditions are satisfied.

Where the terms of an equity-settled award are modified, as a minimum an expense is recognised as if the terms had not been modified, if the original terms of the award are met. In addition, an expense is recognised for any modification that increases the total fair value of the share-based payments, or is otherwise beneficial to the employee as measured at the date of modification. Where an equity-settled award is cancelled, it is treated as if it had vested on the date of cancellation, and any expense not yet recognised for the award is recognised immediately.

The dilutive effect of outstanding options is reflected as additional share dilution in the computation of earnings per share.

252

Other employee benefits

Pension scheme

The employees of the Group’s subsidiaries which operate in the Chinese mainland are required to participate in a central pension scheme operated by the local municipal government. These subsidiaries operating in Chinese mainland are required to contribute a certain percentage of their payroll costs to the central pension scheme. The contributions are charged to profit or loss as they become payable in accordance with the rules of the central pension scheme.

Borrowing costs

Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of qualifying assets, i.e., assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use or sale, are capitalised as part of the cost of those assets. The capitalisation of such borrowing costs ceases when the assets are substantially ready for their intended use or sale. All other borrowing costs are expensed in the period in which they are incurred. Borrowing costs consist of interest and other costs that an entity incurs in connection with the borrowing of funds.

Dividends

Final dividends are recognised as a liability when they are approved by the shareholders in a general meeting. Proposed final dividends, if any, are disclosed in the notes to the financial statements. Interim dividends are simultaneously proposed and declared, because the Company’s memorandum and articles of association grant the directors the authority to declare interim dividends. Consequently, interim dividends are recognised immediately as a liability when they are proposed and declared.

Foreign currencies

These financial statements are presented in RMB, which is the Company's functional currency. Each entity in the Group uses RMB as its functional currency. Foreign currency transactions recorded by the entities in the Group are initially recorded using their respective functional currency rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the functional currency rates of exchange ruling at the end of the reporting period. Differences arising on settlement or translation of monetary items are recognised in profit or loss.

Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the dates of the initial transactions. Non-monetary items measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the date when the fair value was measured. The gain or loss arising on translation of a non-monetary item measured at fair value is treated in line with the recognition of the gain or loss on change in fair value of the item (i.e., translation difference on the item whose fair value gain or loss is recognised in other comprehensive income or profit or loss is also recognised in other comprehensive income or profit or loss, respectively).

In determining the exchange rate on initial recognition of the related asset, expense or income on the derecognition of a non-monetary asset or non-monetary liability relating to an advance consideration, the date of initial transaction is the date on which the Group initially recognises the non-monetary asset or non-monetary liability arising from the advance consideration. If there are multiple payments or receipts in advance, the Group determines the transaction date for each payment or receipt of the advance consideration.

3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS AND ESTIMATES

The preparation of the Group’s financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities, and their accompanying disclosures, and the disclosure of contingent liabilities. Uncertainty about these assumptions and estimates could result in outcomes that could require a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of the assets or liabilities affected in the future.

Judgements

In the process of applying the Group’s accounting policies, management has made the following judgements, apart from those involving estimations, which have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements:

Development expenditures

Development expenditures incurred on the Group’s drug product pipelines are capitalised and deferred only when the Group can demonstrate the technical feasibility of completing the intangible asset so that it will be available for use or sale, the Group’s intention to complete and the Group’s ability to use or sell the asset, how the asset will generate future economic benefits, the availability of resources to complete the pipeline and the ability to measure reliably the expenditure during the development. Development expenditures which do not meet these criteria are expensed when incurred. Determining the amounts of development expenditures to be capitalised requires the use of judgements and estimation.

Deferred tax assets

Deferred tax assets are recognised for unused tax losses to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the losses can be utilised. Significant management judgement is required to determine the amount of deferred tax assets that can be recognised, based upon the likely timing and the level of future taxable profits, together with future tax planning strategies.

Estimation uncertainty

The key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the end of the reporting period, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year, are described below.

3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS AND ESTIMATES (continued)

Estimation uncertainty (continued)

Accrual of research and development expenses

The Group relies on contract research organisations, clinical site management operators, and clinical trial centres (collectively referred as “Outsourced Service Providers”) to conduct, supervise, and monitor the Group’s ongoing clinical trials in the PRC. Determining the amounts of research and development expenses incurred up to the end of each reporting period requires the management of the Group to estimate and measure the progress of receiving research and development services under the contracts with Outsourced Service Providers using inputs such as the number of patient enrolments, time elapsed and milestone achieved.

Impairment of intangible assets not ready for use

Intangible assets not ready for use are not subject to amortisation and are tested annually for impairment, with the key assumptions including the expected achievement of drug development milestones and the outcome of new drug development, estimated revenue to be generated by the in-development drug and discount rate, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that they might be impaired. The Group capitalised and deferred development costs of its in-process research and development of drug candidates for the purpose of continuing the research and development work and commercialisation of the products, which are classified as intangible assets not ready for use.

Impairment of non-financial assets (other than intangible assets not ready for use)

Where an indication of impairment exists, or when annual impairment testing for an asset is required (other than inventories and financial assets), the asset’s recoverable amount is estimated. An asset’s recoverable amount is the higher of the asset’s or cash-generating unit’s value in use and its fair value less costs of disposal, and is determined for an individual asset, unless the asset does not generate cash inflows that are largely independent of those from other assets or groups of assets, in which case the recoverable amount is determined for the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.

An impairment loss is recognised only if the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. An impairment loss is charged to profit or loss in the period in which it arises in those expense categories consistent with the function of the impaired asset.

4. OPERATING SEGMENT INFORMATION

Segment information

For the purpose of resource allocation and performance assessment, the key management of the entities and business comprising the Group, being the chief operating decision maker, reviews the consolidated results when making decisions about allocating resources and assessing performance of the Group as a whole and hence, the Group has only one reportable segment and no further analysis of this single segment is presented.

Geographical information

During the reporting period, all of the Group’s revenue was derived from customers located in the PRC and the Group’s non-current assets are substantially located in the PRC, accordingly, no geographical information in accordance with IFRS 8 Operating Segments is presented.

Information about a major customer

There was no revenue derived from the transaction with a single customer amounting to 10% or more of the Group’s revenues in 2025 and 2024.

(b) Performance obligations

Information about the Group’s performance obligations is summarised below:

Sale of pharmaceutical products

The performance obligation is satisfied upon delivery of the products and acceptance by the customer, and payment is generally due within 30 to 90 days from delivery. Some contracts provide customers with rights of return and sales rebates which give rise to variable consideration subject to constraint.

Exclusive right for the commercialisation

The performance obligation is satisfied overtime during the expected commercialisation period after the commercialisation authorisation from the local authorities is obtained, with reference to the budgeted manufacture order from the customer (i.e. when the customer receives and consumes the benefits during the commercialisation stage) or the expected product life cycle (10 years).

Contract development and manufacturing agreement with customers

The performance obligation is satisfied upon delivery of the control of rights of the deliverables and acceptance by the customer.

Revenue from the rendering of contract services

The performance obligation is satisfied upon delivery of the control of rights of the deliverables and acceptance by the customer.

The Company was incorporated in the Cayman Islands and is exempted from income tax.

Hong Kong profits tax is provided at the rate of 16.5% (2024: 16.5%) on the estimated assessable profits arising in Hong Kong during the year. No Hong Kong profits tax was provided for as there was no estimated assessable profit of the Group's Hong Kong subsidiary that was subject to Hong Kong profits tax during the year.

Under the Law of the PRC of Enterprise Income Tax (the "EIT Law") and the Implementation Regulation of the EIT Law, the tax rate of the Group's PRC subsidiaries is 25% throughout the reporting period.

In November 2024, Taizhou Pharmaceutical was reaccredited as a "High and New Technology Enterprise", therefore is entitled to a preferential tax rate of 15% for a three-year period since 2024. The qualification as a High and New Technology Enterprise will be subject to review by the relevant tax authority in the PRC for every three years and Taizhou Pharmaceutical should self-evaluate whether it meets the criteria of High and New Technology Enterprise each year.

Pursuant to Caishui [2018] circular No. 76, Taizhou Pharmaceutical can carry forward its unutilised tax losses for up to ten years. This extension of expiration period applies to all the unutilised tax losses that were carried forward by Taizhou Pharmaceutical at the effective date of the tax circular.

Pursuant to the relevant EIT Laws, Taizhou Pharmaceutical enjoyed a super deduction of 200% on qualifying research and development expenditures during the period from 1 January 2025 to 31 December 2025.

12. INCOME TAX (continued)

A reconciliation of the tax credit applicable to profit/(loss) before tax at the statutory tax rate for the jurisdiction in which the Company and its subsidiaries are domiciled and/or operate to the tax credit at the effective tax rate is as follows:

| | 2025
RMB'000 | 2024
RMB'000 |

| Tax effect of tax losses and deductible temporary differences not recognised | 37,191 | 30,433 |
| Income tax credit recognised in profit or loss | (52,973) | - |

The Group has unused tax losses of RMB833,763,000 available for offset against future profits as of 31 December 2025 (2024: RMB1,423,370,000). The tax losses of the entity will expire in one to ten years for offsetting against taxable profits of the companies in which the losses arose. The Group had deductible temporary differences of RMB469,800,000 at 31 December 2025 (2024: RMB255,429,000), which are mainly related to marketing and promotion expenses and accrued expenses.

After careful forecasting of the taxable income of Taizhou Pharmaceutical in 2026, deferred income tax credit and deferred tax assets of 53.0M are recognized to the extent of future taxable income likely to be available for offsetting deductible temporary differences, deductible losses, or tax credits.

13. DIVIDENDS

No dividend was paid or proposed for holders of ordinary shares of the Company for the year ended 31 December 2025, nor has any dividend been proposed since the end of the reporting period (2024: Nil).

14. EARNINGS/(LOSS) PER SHARE ATTRIBUTABLE TO ORDINARY EQUITY HOLDERS OF THE COMPANY

The calculation of the basic earnings/(loss) per share is based on the following data:

| | 2025
RMB'000 | 2024
RMB'000 |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Profit/(loss) attributable to ordinary equity holders of the Company for the purpose of calculating basic earnings/(loss) per share | 57,133 | (127,947) |

'000 | 2024
'000 |
| Weighted average number of ordinary shares for the purpose of calculating basic earnings/(loss) per share | 4,124,080 | 4,124,080 |

The calculation of diluted earnings/(loss) per share amounts for the years ended 31 December 2025 and 2024 did not assume the exercise of the pre-IPO share options since its inclusion would be anti-dilutive.

17. INTANGIBLE ASSETS (continued)

Impairment testing of intangible assets not yet ready for use

The recoverable amounts of the intangible assets not yet ready for use were determined based on the fair value less costs of disposal ("FVLCOD"), and the fair values of intangible assets not yet ready for use were determined using cash flow projections based on financial budget approved by the management, covering the economic life of corresponding biopharmaceutical products. The discount rates applied to the cash flow projection range from 19.58% to 20.44%. The contributory asset charges applied to the cash flow projection range from 2.55% to 16.00%.

Assumptions were used in the value-in-use calculation for 31 December 2025 and 31 December 2024. The following describes each key assumption on which management has based its cash flow projections to undertake impairment testing of intangible assets not yet ready for use:

  • Discount rates: The pre-tax discount rates used are the rates of return on investment required by the group.
  • Contributory asset charges: The basis used to determine the value assigned to contributory asset charges is the return expected from assets that support the income-generating capabilities of the intangible assets, and the contributory assets mainly included working capital, fix assets and assembled workforce.

Management believes that any reasonably possible change in any of the key assumptions would not cause the recoverable amounts to be lower than their carrying amounts.

20. TRADE AND BILLS RECEIVABLES (continued)

The Group's trading terms with its customers are mainly on credit. The credit period is generally 30 to 90 days for major customers. Each customer has a maximum credit limit. The Group seeks to maintain strict control over its outstanding receivables and has a credit control department to minimise credit risk. Overdue balances are reviewed regularly by senior management. In view of the aforementioned and the fact that the Group's trade receivables relate to a large number of diversified customers, there is no significant concentration of credit risk. The Group does not hold any collateral or other credit enhancements over its trade receivable balances. Trade receivables are non-interest-bearing.

An ageing analysis of the trade and bills receivables as at the end of the reporting period, based on the invoice date and net of loss allowance, is as follows:

20. TRADE AND BILLS RECEIVABLES (continued)

An impairment analysis is performed at each reporting date using a provision matrix to measure expected credit losses. The provision rates are based on aging. The calculation reflects the probability-weighted outcome, the time value of money and reasonable and supportable information that is available at the reporting date about past events, current conditions and forecasts of future economic conditions. Generally, trade receivables are written off if past due for more than one year and are not subject to enforcement activity.

Set out below is the information about the credit risk exposure on the Group's trade receivables using a provision matrix:

Cash and bank balances

Cash and bank balances comprise cash at banks and short-term bank deposits with an original maturity of three months or less. Cash at banks earns interest at floating rates based on daily bank deposit rates. Short-term time deposits are made for varying periods of between one day and three months depending on the immediate cash requirements of the Group, and earn interest at the respective short-term time deposit rates. The bank balances are deposited with creditworthy banks with no recent history of default.

Equity-settled share option scheme of the Company

The Company's Pre-IPO Share Option Scheme (the "Scheme") was adopted pursuant to a resolution passed on 10 August 2018 for the primary purpose of providing incentives to directors of the Company and eligible employees of the Group. Under the Scheme, 1,875,000 options were granted on 18 August 2018 to directors of the Company and eligible employees of the Group to subscribe for shares in the Company, which will expire on 17 August 2028.

There are no cash settlement alternatives. The Group does not have a past practice of cash settlement for these share options. The Group accounts for the Scheme as an equity-settled plan.

Share options do not confer rights on the holders to dividends or to vote at shareholders' meetings.

The Scheme has a service condition that shall vest over an 8-year period, with 20%, 20%, 20%, 20% and 20% of the total number of the options granted to be vested on the fourth, fifth, sixth, seventh and eighth anniversaries of the listing date, respectively.

The exercise price in relation to each option granted shall be the final offer price per share at which the shares are to be acquired by the investors pursuant to the Hong Kong Public Offering and the International Offering, which shall not be less than the par value of the shares, provided that the exercise price shall be adjusted in the event of any capitalisation issue, rights issue, open offer, sub-division, consolidation of shares, or reduction of capital of the Company.

30. SHARE-BASED PAYMENT TRANSACTIONS (continued)

Equity-settled share option scheme of the Company (continued)

On 8 April 2019, a shareholders' resolution about the capitalisation issue was passed and after taking into account of the capitalisation issue, the number of share options was increased to 83,512,500.

The following table discloses details of the movements of the outstanding options granted under the Scheme during the year ended 31 December 2025:

The Group recognised the total expense of RMB11,237,000 during the year ended 31 December 2025 (2024: RMB11,824,000) in relation to share options granted by the Company.

At the end of the reporting period, the Company had 72,671,000 (2024: 73,446,000) share options outstanding under the Scheme. The exercise in full of the outstanding share options would, under the present capital structure of the Company, result in the issue of 72,671,000 additional ordinary shares of the Company and additional share capital of US$7,267 (equivalent to RMB51,079) and reserve of RMB98,406,000 (before issue expense).

At the date of approval of these financial statements, the Company had 72,671,000 share options outstanding under the Scheme, which represented approximately 1.8% of the Company's shares in issue as at that date.

Total 468,411

36. FAIR VALUE AND FAIR VALUE HIERARCHY OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Management has assessed that the fair values of cash and bank balances, restricted bank deposits, trade receivables, financial assets included in prepayments and other receivables, financial liabilities included in trade and other payables and interest-bearing bank and other borrowings (in the current portion) approximate to their carrying amounts largely due to the short-term maturities of these instruments.

The Group’s finance department headed by the finance manager is responsible for determining the policies and procedures for the fair value measurement of financial instruments. The finance manager reports directly to the chief financial officer and the audit committee. At each reporting period, the finance department analyses the movements in the values of financial instruments and determines the major inputs applied in the valuation. The directors review the results of the fair value measurement of financial instruments periodically for financial reporting.

The fair values of the financial assets and liabilities are included at the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced or liquidation sale. The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair values:

The fair values of financial assets and liabilities included in non-current portion of interest-bearing bank and other borrowings and the non-current portion of amounts due to a related party have been calculated by discounting the expected future cash flows using rates currently available for instruments with similar terms, credit risk and remaining maturities. The changes in fair value as a result of the Group’s own non-performance risk for interest-bearing bank and other borrowings as at 31 December 2025 were assessed to be insignificant.

37. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES

The Group’s principal financial instruments comprise cash and bank balances, restricted bank deposits, trade receivables, interest-bearing bank and other borrowings, and amounts due to a related party. The main purpose of these financial instruments is to raise finance for the Group’s operations. The Group has various other financial assets and liabilities such as a rental deposit to a related party, trade receivables, financial assets included in prepayments and other receivables and other non-current assets and financial liabilities included in trade and other payables, which arise directly from its operations.

The main risks arising from the Group’s financial instruments are interest rate risk, foreign currency risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. The board of directors reviews and agrees policies for managing each of these risks and they are summarised below.

Interest rate risk

The Group’s exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates relates primarily to the Group’s interest-bearing bank borrowings with a floating interest rate. The Group does not use derivative financial instruments to hedge its interest rate risk.

The following table demonstrates the sensitivity to a reasonably possible change in interest rate, with all other variables held constant, of the Group’s profit/(loss) before tax (through the impact on floating rate borrowings) and the Group’s equity.

Increase/ (decrease) in basis points Increase/ (decrease) in profit/(loss) before tax RMB'000 Increase/ (decrease) in equity RMB'000

302 Mabpharm Limited

37. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES (continued)

Foreign currency risk

Certain bank balances and cash and restricted bank deposits are denominated in foreign currencies of the respective group entities which are exposed to foreign currency risk. The Group currently does not have a foreign currency hedging policy. However, the Group's management monitors foreign exchange exposure and will consider hedging significant foreign currency exposure should the need arise.

The following table demonstrates the sensitivity at the end of the reporting period to a reasonably possible change in foreign currency exchange rates, with all other variables held constant, of the Group's profit/(loss) before tax (arising from US$ and HK$denominated financial instruments) and the Group's equity.

Increase/(decrease) in rate of foreign currency % Increase/(decrease) in profit before tax RMB'000 Increase/(decrease) in equity RMB'000

If RMB strengthens against HK$ (5) 80 80

37. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES (continued)

Credit risk

The Group trades only with recognised and creditworthy third parties. It is the Group's policy that all customers who wish to trade on credit terms are subject to credit verification procedures. In addition, receivable balances are monitored on an ongoing basis and the Group's exposure to bad debts is not significant.

The credit risk of the Group's financial assets, which comprise cash and bank balances, trade receivables and financial assets included in prepayments and other receivables and other non-current assets with a maximum exposure equal to the carrying amount of these instruments.

Maximum exposure and year-end staging

The tables below show the credit quality and the maximum exposure to credit risk based on the Group's credit policy, which is mainly based on past due information unless other information is available without undue cost or effort, and year-end staging classification as at 31 December.

Notes:

a. The credit quality of the financial assets included in prepayments and other receivables and other non-current assets is considered to be "normal" when they are not past due and there is no information indicating that the financial assets had a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition. Otherwise, the credit quality of the financial assets is considered to be "doubtful".

b. For trade receivables to which the Group applies the simplified approach for impairment, information based on the provision matrix and further quantitative data in respect of the Group's exposure to credit risk arising from trade receivables is disclosed in note 20 to the financial statements.

Since the Group trades only with recognised and creditworthy third parties, there is no requirement for collateral. Concentrations of credit risk are managed by customer/ counterparty, by geographical region and by industry sector. There are no significant concentrations of credit risk within the Group as the customer bases of the Group's trade receivables are widely dispersed.

Liquidity risk

The Group monitors and maintains a level of cash and bank balances deemed adequate by the management of the Group to finance the operations and mitigate the effects of fluctuations in cash flows.

The maturity profile of the Group's financial liabilities as at the end of the reporting period, based on the contractual undiscounted payments, is as follows:

2025
Less than 1 year or on demand RMB'000 1 to 5 years RMB'000 Over 5 years RMB'000 Total RMB'000
