CHAIRMAN’S STATEMENT
PROFIT AND LOSS
4
FY2025 was a defining year in the evolution of the Group.
During the year, the Group completed its transition into an emerging biopharmaceutical company
developing innovative small-molecule therapeutics for high-burden central nervous system (“CNS”)
disorders, with an initial strategic focus across addiction and psychiatry. This transformation began with the
change of name to Solvonis Therapeutics plc in January 2025 and was fundamentally advanced through the
acquisition of Awakn Life Sciences, which completed in May 2025. Together, these steps reshaped the
Group into a focused CNS therapeutics business with a clearer strategy, a more coherent pipeline and a
stronger long-term platform for value creation.
The acquisition of Awakn was the defining strategic event of the year. It brought into Solvonis a clinically
relevant and differentiated portfolio, including a lead Phase 3 programme in severe Alcohol Use Disorder
(“AUD”), a second AUD programme being developed for the U.S. market, and a broader scientific and
translational platform from which the Group has since begun to build additional pipeline depth across
addiction and psychiatry. In doing so, the transaction materially changed the nature of the business and
established the foundations of the Solvonis strategy as it stands today.
The Board’s focus throughout the year was not only on completing this strategic transformation, but also on
ensuring that the enlarged Group was appropriately governed, financed and positioned for its next phase of
development. This included overseeing the integration of the acquired business, supporting management in
portfolio prioritisation and capital allocation, and strengthening the Board and broader leadership structure
in line with the Group’s new strategic direction.
We were pleased during the year to continue to strengthen the Board and scientific profile of the Company.
The appointments of Dr Renata Crome and, subsequently, Paul Carter as Non-Executive Directors added
further depth across clinical, commercial and strategic leadership. In parallel, the appointment of Professor
David Nutt as Chief Scientific Officer further enhanced the scientific strength and credibility of the Group in
the CNS field. These appointments were made with a clear view to the Company’s future needs as it seeks
to advance a differentiated CNS pipeline and create long-term value through disciplined programme
progression and, where appropriate, future licensing or partnering activity.
Operationally, the year saw meaningful progress across the Group’s portfolio. Following completion of the
acquisition, the Company continued to advance its clinical and translational programmes while also
initiating an AI-enabled discovery effort designed to generate novel proprietary chemistry in high-burden
CNS disorders. The Board considers this strategically important. It supports the Company’s ambition not
simply to advance acquired assets, but to build a broader and more sustainable pipeline across addiction
and psychiatry over time.
The Board remains highly conscious of the financing environment in which development-stage
biotechnology companies continue to operate. In that context, capital discipline remains central to the
Group’s strategy. Solvonis’ model — combining later-stage clinical assets, capital-efficient development
pathways, discovery-stage innovation and external validation where possible — is intended to support
disciplined execution while preserving meaningful upside from pipeline progression.

CHAIRMAN’S STATEMENT
5
While the Group remains at an early stage in its development, FY2025 marked the year in which Solvonis
became a strategically coherent CNS therapeutics business. The Company exits the year with a stronger
identity, a more focused and differentiated portfolio, and a clearer route to value creation than at any point
in its recent history.
On behalf of the Board, I would like to thank our shareholders for their continued support during this
important period of transformation, and to thank the management team, scientific advisers and employees
for their commitment and execution throughout the year.

CEO statement
FY2025 was a transformational year for Solvonis.
During the year, the Group completed its transition into an emerging biopharmaceutical company focused
on high-burden central nervous system (“CNS”) disorders, with an initial strategic focus across addiction
and psychiatry. This transformation was driven by the change of name to Solvonis Therapeutics plc and the
completion of the acquisition of Awakn Life Sciences in May 2025.
That transaction fundamentally reshaped the Group. It brought into Solvonis a clinically relevant and
differentiated pipeline, strengthened the scientific profile of the business, and gave the Company a clearer
development strategy in areas of high unmet need.
A clearer strategy and a stronger portfolio
Our strategy is to build a differentiated pipeline in high-burden CNS disorders, with an initial focus across
addiction and psychiatry.
This strategy is anchored by two programmes in Alcohol Use Disorder (“AUD”).
SVN-001 is our lead programme and is being developed for severe AUD in the UK and EU. It combines IV
ketamine with a structured, manualised relapse-prevention cognitive behavioural therapy programme,
targeting both the biological and psychosocial dimensions of addiction.
SVN-002 is being developed for moderate-to-severe AUD outside the UK and EU, with an initial focus on
the United States. Previously referred to as AWKN-002, the programme was integrated into the Solvonis
portfolio following the Awakn acquisition. It is a sublingual/buccal esketamine oral thin-film programme,
combined with psychosocial support, and is being advanced via a planned 505(b)(2) pathway.
Together, these programmes provide Solvonis with a clear and differentiated strategy in AUD: SVN-001 in
severe AUD in the UK and EU, and SVN-002 in moderate-to-severe AUD in the U.S. and other ex-UK/EU
markets.
Progress during the year
The first half of the year was focused on completing the Awakn acquisition and repositioning the business.
Following completion, our focus turned quickly to integration, prioritisation and disciplined progression of
the portfolio.
Prior to completion of the acquisition, the Company announced a positive FDA pre-IND outcome for AWKN-
002 (now SVN-002), providing additional clarity on the planned U.S. development pathway for the
programme.
Following completion of the transaction, we worked to ensure that the acquired portfolio was not simply
absorbed, but integrated into a clearer and more investable CNS strategy.
Building beyond the acquired assets
A key strategic development during the year was the initiation of our AI-enabled CNS discovery programme.
This platform is designed to generate novel monoaminergic modulators targeting serotonin, dopamine and
noradrenaline pathways relevant to addiction and psychiatry. It provides a source of proprietary compounds
to complement the clinical portfolio and support longer-term pipeline development.
The first output from this effort was the SVN-SDN-14 programme, from which SVN-114 has subsequently
emerged as the lead candidate in PTSD. We also advanced SVN-015, a novel serotonin and dopamine

reuptake inhibitor, which has since been accepted into the U.S. National Institute on Drug Abuse (“NIDA”)
Addiction Treatment Discovery Program.
Together, these programmes reflect our broader strategy: combining later-stage clinical assets with
internally generated discovery opportunities to build a broader pipeline across addiction and psychiatry.
Scientific capability and capital discipline
During the year, we also strengthened the scientific and leadership capability of the Group, including the
appointment of Professor David Nutt as Chief Scientific Officer and the addition of further experience at
Board level.
At the same time, capital discipline remained central. The environment for small-cap biotechnology
companies continues to be challenging, and our model is designed accordingly — prioritising programmes
with clear development pathways, leveraging external validation where possible, and maintaining flexibility
in how value is realised.
The Company continues to consider future commercialisation and partnering options for selected later-
stage assets as part of its broader portfolio strategy. In respect of SVN-001, however, the Board’s current
view is that the most attractive route to maximising shareholder value is to prioritise advancement through
completion of Phase 3 before assessing future strategic options from that stronger position.
Outlook
We exit FY2025 as a more focused and strategically coherent business.
We now have:
• a clear identity and strategy;
• a lead Phase 3 programme in severe AUD;
• a second clinically grounded AUD programme for the U.S. opportunity;
• an expanding internal discovery platform;
• and a broader pipeline across addiction and psychiatry.
Since the year end, we have continued to build on that progress, including the expansion of SVN-015 into
depression and the selection of SVN-114 as lead candidate in PTSD.
There remains significant work ahead, and we remain fully aware of both the scientific and financing
challenges inherent in our sector. However, I believe FY2025 will be seen as the year in which Solvonis
established the foundations of a focused and differentiated CNS therapeutics business.
I would like to thank our shareholders, Board, advisers, collaborators and wider team for their support and
commitment during this important year.

Remuneration Report
The Remuneration Committee will be responsible for determining and agreeing with the Board the
framework or broad policy for the remuneration of the Executive Directors and such other members of the
executive and the Senior Manager as it is designated to consider. The Remuneration Committee will also
make recommendations to the Board on proposals for the granting of share options and other equity
incentives pursuant to any employee share option scheme or equity incentive plans in operation from time
to time.
Since the Board restructure in 2024 the Board has considered remuneration matters as a whole. As a result
there was no sole Remuneration Committee meetings during the period. The Board is aware of the
important role that a formal Remuneration Committee plays within a Company and will be looking to re-
implement a formal Remuneration Committee in the 2026 calendar year.
Remuneration Policy
The remuneration policy of the Company is that each director enters into a service agreement with the
Group on a salary per annum. It is the responsibility of the remuneration committee to assess an appropriate
level of Directors’ remuneration and it is envisaged that the remuneration policy will assist to attract, retain
and motivate Executive Directors and senior management of a high calibre with a view to encouraging
commitment to the development of the Company and for long term enhancement of shareholder value. The
Board believes that share ownership by Directors strengthens the link between their personal interests and
those of shareholders however there is no formal requirements for share ownership by Directors.

Payments to past directors
There were no payments to past directors in the year.
UK 10-year performance graph
The Directors have considered the requirement for a UK 10-year performance graph comparing the
Company’s Total Shareholder Return with that of a comparable indicator. As per the 2024 financial year the
Group continued to record losses in 2025 and hence do not consider that including the graph will be
meaningful. The Directors believe that graphical depiction would not represent an accurate depiction of the
Group’s activities particularly as it has changed its strategy significantly in the recent periods.
UK 10-year CEO table and UK percentage change table
The Directors have considered the requirement for a UK 10-year CEO table. Considering that the Group has
undergone significant change in the recent years they do not believe that this information will assist readers
of these financial statements to assess the performance of the Chief Executive. The Directors will review
the inclusion of this table for future reports.
Percentage change in remuneration of director undertaking the role of chief executive officer
During the previous year the CEO was replaced by the current CEO. As a result the business has adopted a
new business model and operating procedure. Consequently, it would not be additive or appropriate to
present remuneration change through a percentage. The Company will consider this metric on its merits at
each year end and look to present in the most appropriate format to aid understanding.
Relative importance of spend on pay
The Directors have considered the requirement to present information on the relative importance of spend
on pay compared to shareholder dividends paid. Given that the Company does not currently pay dividends
we have not considered it necessary to include such information.
Financial instruments
Details of the use of the Company’s financial risk management objectives and policies as well as exposure
to financial risk are contained in the Accounting policies and note 22 of the financial statements.

Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Emissions
The Company is exempt from the Streamlined Energy & Carbon Reporting (SECR) requirements since
energy consumption has been less than 40,000 kWh of energy in the UK in the current and prior reporting
years.
Dividends
The Directors do not propose a dividend in respect of the year ended 31 December 2025.
Corporate Governance
A detailed assessment of the Corporate Governance of the Group can be viewed in the Governance Report.
Going Concern
The Directors have assessed the going concern status of the Company for a period of not less than twelve
months from the anticipated date of approval of the financial statements. As a clinical-stage, pre-revenue
biopharmaceutical company, Solvonis Therapeutics Plc funds its operations through periodic equity capital
raises rather than commercial revenue generation and consequently need to exercise caution over
expenditures.
As a result the Directors have reviewed detailed cash flow forecasts and a working capital model prepared
by management in forming their conclusion around going concern. The forecasts reflects that management
are gaining greater control over their cost base post acquiring significant intellectual property though the
Awakn acquisition. While there is not an immediate need for capital the Board is aware of the need for pre-
revenue Company’s to fund their operations through equity and are in constant communication with its
brokers to assess the funding landscape. The Directors also retain a number of levers to manage cash
outflows should circumstances require, including the ability to defer discretionary R&D programmes whilst
still achieving their objectives.
The Directors are satisfied that the going concern basis of preparation remains appropriate. However, they
draw attention to the fact that the Company's ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on the
successful completion of further equity fundraising within the assessment period. This represents a
material uncertainty as disclosed in the auditors report and the financial statements do not include any
adjustments that would result from the going concern basis of preparation being inappropriate. Ultimately
after considering all of these factors the Directors are comfortable with the financial statements being
prepared on a going concern basis.
Statement of directors’ responsibilities
The Directors are responsible for preparing the Annual Report and financial statements in accordance with
applicable laws and regulations.
Company law requires the directors to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under that law
the directors have prepared the financial statements in accordance with UK-adopted international
accounting standards for the group and as regards to the Parent Company Financial Statements, as applied
in accordance with the Companies Act 2006. Under company law the directors must not approve the
financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the
group and company and the profit and loss of the group for that period.
In preparing the financial statements the Directors are required to:

STRATEGIC REPORT
PROFIT AND LOSS
15
The Directors present the Strategic Report of the Company and the Group for the period ended 31
December 2025.
Key financial highlights of the Group are below:
• Cash and cash equivalents at year end were £1.720 million (2024: £0.757 million)
• Loss before taxation for the year was £5.740 million (2024: £1.45 million)
• Net cash inflow for the year was £0.955 million (2024: £0.616 million inflow)
• The Group held net assets at year-end of £6.191 million (2024: £3.084 million)
The key non-financial metrics of the Group relate to the progression of the various clinical programs. These
progress of these are outlined below.
Strategy and Business Model
The Group’s strategy is to build a differentiated pipeline of therapeutics for high-burden CNS disorders, with
an initial focus across addiction and psychiatry. The Board believes that these therapeutic areas remain
significantly underserved, despite substantial disease burden, high relapse rates, and limited innovation in
approved pharmacological treatment options. Solvonis’ objective is to identify, develop and progress
programmes where there is a credible opportunity to deliver differentiated therapeutic benefit and create
meaningful long-term shareholder value, including by retaining value in selected programmes to the point
the Board believes offers the most attractive strategic inflection.
1. Progression of later-stage clinical assets
The Group’s lead clinical programmes are SVN-001 and SVN-002, both targeting Alcohol Use Disorder but
with different positioning by patient population and geography.
• SVN-001 is being developed for severe AUD in the UK and EU
• SVN-002 is being developed for moderate-to-severe AUD outside the UK and EU, with an initial
focus on the U.S.
These programmes are intended to provide nearer-term strategic and clinical value inflection opportunities.
2. Expansion through internally generated discovery programmes
In parallel, the Group is building a proprietary pipeline of novel CNS-active compounds through its internal
discovery platform. This includes programmes such as:
• SVN-114 in PTSD
• SVN-015 in stimulant use disorder and depression
These assets are intended to provide longer-term pipeline depth and future optionality across addiction and
psychiatry. The Company’s AI-enabled CNS discovery platform is intended to support this strategy by
generating novel chemical matter and expanding the Group’s addressable opportunity set across CNS
disorders.
3. Capital-efficient development and strategic optionality
The Group seeks to progress programmes through development pathways that are scientifically and
commercially credible, while remaining disciplined in capital allocation. This includes:

• leveraging external validation where possible;
• using translational or bridging approaches where appropriate;
• exploring non-dilutive funding pathways;
• and retaining flexibility in relation to future commercialisation, licensing and partnering
opportunities, while in the case of SVN-001 the Board’s current view is that the most attractive
route to maximising value is to prioritise advancement through completion of Phase 3 before
assessing future strategic options from that stronger position.
The Board believes this model provides an appropriate balance between ambition, risk management and
capital efficiency for a development-stage biopharmaceutical company operating in current market
conditions.
Review of the Business in FY2025 & Future Developments
Corporate transformation
The most significant event during FY2025 was the completion of the acquisition of Awakn in May 2025. That
transaction materially changed the nature of the Group as it acquired significant assets in the form of
intellectual property. This acquisition helped Solvonis to establish a clinically relevant and differentiated
CNS pipeline, established scientific capabilities and a clearer strategic focus in addiction and psychiatry. It
also represented the final step in the Company’s transition away from its historic legacy activities and into
a dedicated CNS therapeutics business. Earlier in the year, the Company changed its name to Solvonis
Therapeutics plc, reflecting this strategic repositioning. Together, these steps established the current
Solvonis platform and strategy.
Portfolio development
During the year, the Group continued to progress its portfolio across both clinical and discovery-stage
assets:
SVN-001
SVN-001 is the Group’s lead programme and is being developed for severe AUD in the UK and EU. It
combines IV ketamine with a structured, manualised relapse-prevention cognitive behavioural therapy
programme and is intended to address both the biological and psychosocial drivers of severe addiction. The
programme remains the Group’s most advanced asset and a central component of its development
strategy. Following review of the strategic options available in respect of SVN-001, the Board’s current view
is that greater shareholder value may be available at or following successful completion of Phase 3 than
through an earlier licensing or partnering transaction.
SVN-002
SVN-002 is being developed for moderate-to-severe AUD outside the UK and EU, with an initial focus on
the United States. This programme was referred to as AWKN-002 prior to completion of the Awakn
acquisition and was subsequently integrated into the Solvonis portfolio as SVN-002. It is a
sublingual/buccal esketamine oral thin-film programme combined with psychosocial support and is being
advanced via a planned 505(b)(2) regulatory pathway. During the year, the Company announced a positive
outcome from the FDA pre-IND interaction relating to SVN-002, which provided additional clarity on the
planned U.S. development pathway for the programme.

STRATEGIC REPORT

Discovery and preclinical pipeline
A key strategic development during the year was the initiation of the Group’s AI-enabled CNS discovery
programme, which is intended to generate novel monoaminergic modulators targeting key neurotransmitter
systems relevant to addiction and psychiatry. The first output from this platform was the SVN-SDN-14
programme, which generated encouraging preclinical progress during the year and has since yielded SVN-
114 as a lead candidate in PTSD.
The Group also advanced SVN-015, a novel serotonin and dopamine reuptake inhibitor designed to engage
pathways relevant to mood, motivation and reward processing. During the period and shortly thereafter, the
programme gained increasing strategic importance, including following its acceptance into the U.S.
National Institute on Drug Abuse (“NIDA”) Addiction Treatment Discovery Program. Taken together, these
developments support the Group’s broader objective of building a diversified but strategically coherent CNS
pipeline across addiction and psychiatry.
During the year the Group also disposed of its wholly owned subsidiary Graft Polymer IP Ltd. As a result of
this disposal significant Know-how and Intellectual Property related to intangibles assets brought forward
at the previous year end have left the Group. Consequently this intangible has been impaired in the year.
Scientific and organisational capability
During FY2025, the Group also strengthened its scientific and leadership platform. This included the
appointment of Professor David Nutt as Chief Scientific Officer, which the Board considers a significant
enhancement to the Group’s scientific leadership and translational capability. The Company also continued
to strengthen its Board and governance structure during the year through additional appointments aligned
with its strategic transition.
Principal Risks and Uncertainties
The Group operates in an uncertain environment and is subject to a number of risk factors. The Directors
consider the following risk factors are of particular relevance to the Group’s activities although it should be
noted that this list is not exhaustive and that other risk factors not presently known or currently deemed
immaterial may apply. The principal risks and uncertainties identified by the Board are set out below.
Clinical and development risk
The Group’s programmes remain subject to the inherent risks of pharmaceutical and biotechnology
development. Preclinical and clinical programmes may fail to generate sufficiently supportive safety,
efficacy, pharmacokinetic or translational data, or may be delayed, amended or discontinued. This risk is
mitigated through portfolio diversification, use of external scientific and regulatory expertise, and
prioritisation of programmes with defined development pathways where possible.
Regulatory risk
The Group’s programmes are subject to regulatory review and oversight in multiple jurisdictions. Regulatory
pathways may evolve over time and regulatory agencies may require additional studies, data or
development steps before allowing progression or approval. This is particularly relevant to programmes
such as SVN-002, which is being developed through a planned 505(b)(2) strategy, and to later-stage
regulatory planning for SVN-001. The Group seeks to mitigate this risk through ongoing regulatory
engagement and the use of external specialist advisers.

SOLVONIS THERAPEUTICS PLC – COMPANY NUMBER 10776788
STRATEGIC REPORT
18
Financing and liquidity risk
The Group is pre-revenue and remains dependent on external funding to support its operations and
development activities. There can be no assurance that future funding will be available on acceptable terms,
or at all. Adverse capital market conditions may affect the Group’s ability to raise funds or may require the
Group to revise the pace or scope of programme progression. This risk is mitigated through active cash
management, capital prioritisation, phased development planning and the pursuit of capital-efficient and
non-dilutive opportunities where possible.
Execution and integration risk
Following the acquisition of Awakn, the Group remains exposed to execution risk in relation to portfolio
integration, prioritisation and organisational scaling. Failure to allocate capital or management attention
effectively across the portfolio could delay progress or reduce strategic value creation. This risk is mitigated
through Board oversight, disciplined portfolio review and continued strengthening of internal and external
capabilities.
Intellectual property risk
The Group’s ability to create and retain value depends in part on the strength, scope and duration of its
intellectual property position, particularly in relation to its internally generated discovery assets. There is a
risk that patent applications may not proceed to grant, may be challenged, or may provide less protection
than expected. The Group seeks to mitigate this through active patent filing strategy, use of specialist IP
advisers, and continued development of proprietary chemistry and programme-specific know-how.
Commercial and partnering risk
The Group’s strategy may, over time, include commercialisation, licensing or partnering activity in relation
to selected programmes. In the case of SVN-001, however, the Board’s current strategy is to prioritise
advancement through completion of Phase 3 before reassessing future route-to-value options. There is no
assurance that such transactions will be achieved on acceptable terms, within expected timeframes, or at
all. Failure to secure commercial or strategic partnerships where anticipated could affect the Group’s ability
to accelerate development or realise value from certain assets.
The Board mitigates this risk through strategic review, adviser support where appropriate, and maintaining
flexibility in route-to-value planning.
Section 172 Statement – Promotion of the Company for the benefit of the members as a whole
The Directors believe they have acted in the way most likely to promote the success of the Company for the
benefit of its members as a whole, as required by s172 of the Companies Act 2006.
The requirements of s172 are for the Directors to:
• Consider the likely consequences of any decision in the long term;
• Act fairly between the members of the Company;
• Maintain a reputation for high standards of business conduct;
• Consider the interests of the Company’s employees;
• Foster the Company’s relationships with suppliers, customers and others; and
• Consider the impact of the Company’s operations on the community and the environment.

We aim to work responsibly with our stakeholders, including suppliers. The impact of key Board decisions
on major stakeholders in the year is set out below:
Stakeholders
Impact
Strategy & decision making
Employees
The Group does not employ anyone
outside of Directors. The Group is
focused on extracting maximum value
from its resources and is confident it
can achieve its desired outcomes with
the current human resources it has in
place.
The Company continues to use the Employee Share
Option plan to align the interests of the Group with those
of its key management personnel (“KMP”).
The remuneration committee reviews the performance
and salary of Directors annually to ensure they are
properly remunerated.
In the current year the committee has met and
made recommendations to the Board. Where deemed
appropriate the Board has implemented changes and
believes the Board and its KMP are properly incentivised
to deliver strong results for the Group. The addition of
two new Directors in the year illustrates that the current
remuneration plan is appropriate for attracting high level
talent.
Shareholders
At the core of the Board’s strategy is to
deliver long term sustained value to
the Company’s shareholders.
As a result the Board is constantly in
discussions about what the optimal
strategy is to deliver value to
shareholders in the shortest time
frame as long as it does not jeopardise
total return of value.
The Board believes that with the acquisition of the
intellectual property within the Awakn Group it has taken
a significant step in its journey to returning value to
shareholders.
The Board now has a clear pipeline to establishing a
clinically relevant and differentiated CNS pipeline,
established scientific capabilities and a clearer strategic
focus in addiction and psychiatry.
With this there is huge potential to deliver returns to
shareholders and also significant outcomes for the
community.
Governance
Governance in the small cap space is
extremely important for myriad
reasons but particularly as there is not
the resources available to copy the
model of larger organisations.
The Board is aware of these
limitations however it is committed to
ensuring that it has appropriate
controls in place to allow the Group to
operate effectively without
jeopardising its operational flexibility.
Emerging bio-tech start-ups such as Solvonis operate in
a world where access to resources is limited and
subsequently are required to operate in unique ways as
compared to larger companies.
Governance controls that are appropriate for large
entities are not necessarily appropriate for smaller
entities and can often impact their ability to transact.
The Board has relevant experience across a range of
fields and are confident they can maintain appropriate
controls that allow the Group to still maintain its
competitiveness.

Community
Solvonis’ programs are targeting
addiction. An affliction that has
unlimited negative impacts on
families and communities across the
world.
If Solvonis is able to execute its
strategy the positive impact felt
throughout the community will be
immense and directly attributable to
the Group’s activities.
The Board is not only pursuing a strategy that they think
is lucrative but also has the ability to deliver positive
impacts and change throughout unlimited communities.
Along with a strong business case the Directors believe
that the potential social impact that could be achieved
through the successful realisation of its strategy will be
vast.
The Directors believe in the power of the programs, and
this aids their desire to be successful.
Environmental
Solvonis operations are limited to
clinical & pre-clinical trials. As a
result, there is limited environmental
impact.
Environmental impact is currently minimal for the
Group. As a start-up mainly administering trials on a
modest scale there is limited impact on the environment
and hence the Directors are comfortable that decisions
in the year have not had any adverse impacts.

Compliance with the QCA Code
As a Group listed on the Equity Shares (transition) category of the London Stock Exchange, the Group is
not required to comply with the provisions of the UK Corporate Governance Code. Nevertheless, the
Directors are committed to ensuring that appropriate standards of corporate governance are maintained,
so far as is appropriate given the Group’s current stage of development, the size and composition of the
board of directors and available resources. The Board will aim to comply with the QCA Guidelines on
Corporate Governance (“QCA Guidelines”). The Board has reviewed the recent changes to the code and
has assessed their potential impact on the management of the Group.
The QCA Code has ten principles of corporate governance that the Group applies to establish the
governance foundations of the business. These principles are:
1. Establish a purpose, strategy and business model which promote long term value for
shareholders;
2. Promote a corporate culture that is based on ethical values and behaviours;
3. Seek to understand and meet shareholder needs and expectations;
4. Take into account wider stakeholder interests, including social and environmental responsibilities,
and their implications for long term success;
5. Embed effective risk management, considering both internal controls and assurance activities,
considering both opportunities and threats, throughout the organisation;
6. Establish and maintain the board as a well-functioning balanced team led by the Chair;
7. Maintain appropriate governance structures and ensure that individually and collectively the
directors have the necessary up-to-date experience, skills and capabilities;
8. Evaluate board performance based on clear and relevant objectives, seeking continuous
improvement;
9. Establish a remuneration policy which is supportive of long-term value creation and the
Company’s purpose strategy and culture; and
10. Communicate how the Group is governed and is performing by maintaining a dialogue with
shareholders and other key stakeholders.
Here follows a short explanation of how the Group applies each of the principles, including where
applicable an explanation of why there is a deviation from those principles.
Principle One
Business Model and Strategy
The Group continues to follow a clearly defined business strategy of developing intellectual property
related to the treatment of mental health and substance use disorders, and co-developing therapeutics
for these conditions. Ultimately the Group is focused on realising their commercial potential by bringing
these treatments to market and returning value to shareholders.
Principle Two
Corporate Culture
The Board recognises that its decisions regarding strategy and risk will impact the corporate culture of the
Group as a whole which in turn will impact the Group’s performance. The Directors are very aware that the
tone and culture set by the Board will greatly impact all aspects of the Group and the way that consultants
or other representatives behave.

SOLVONIS THERAPEUTICS PLC – COMPANY NUMBER 10776788
GOVERNANCE REPORT
22
The corporate governance arrangements that the Board have adopted are designed to instil a firm ethical
code to be followed by Directors, consultants and representatives alike throughout the entire organisation.
The Group strives to achieve and maintain an open and respectful dialogue with representatives,
regulators, suppliers and other stakeholders. Therefore, the importance of sound ethical values and
behaviours is crucial to the ability of the Group to successfully achieve its corporate objectives.
The Board places great importance on this aspect of corporate life and seeks to ensure that this flows
through everything that the Group does. The Directors are focused on ensuring that the Group maintains
an open culture facilitating comprehensive dialogue and feedback and enabling positive and constructive
challenge. The Group has adopted, a code for Directors' dealings in securities which is appropriate for a
company whose securities are traded on this main market and is in accordance with the requirements of
the Market Abuse Regulation which came into effect in 2016. Issues of bribery and corruption are taken
seriously.
The Group has a zero-tolerance approach to bribery and corruption and has recently put an anti-bribery
and corruption policy in place to protect the Group, its employees and those third parties to which the
business engages with.
Principle Three
Understanding Shareholder Needs and Expectations
The Board is committed to maintaining good communication and having constructive dialogue with its
shareholders. They will be encouraged to attend the AGM and website and investor relations
communications are constantly monitored to see where they can be improved. The Board utilises the LSE
RNS service as well as RNS Reach to keep the market informed about the activities of the Group outside
of the regular reporting events.
Principle Four
Considering wider stakeholder and social responsibilities
The Board recognises that the long-term success of the Group is reliant upon open communication with
its internal and external stakeholders: investee companies, shareholders, contractors, suppliers,
regulators and other stakeholders. The Group has pivoted its business strategy in the recent year and some
of the close relationships that it had developed in the past will fade away. The new members of the Board
bring with them new experiences and networks and will be looking to harness them to create value for the
Group going forward. Regardless of its new strategy the Board is committed to delivering lasting benefit to
our shareholders, employees and contractors.
Principle Five
Risk Management
The Board is responsible for ensuring that procedures are in place and are being implemented effectively
to identify, evaluate and manage the significant risks faced by the Group. With the Board continuing to
increase in size they will look to review and assess the appropriateness of the framework of internal
financial controls in place.

23
This process will look to address both financial risk and non-financial risks to ensure all exposures are
adequately managed. The Group maintains appropriate insurance cover in respect of legal actions against
the Directors. The principal risks and uncertainties are as set out in the Strategic Report.
Principle Six
A Well Functioning Board of Directors
The Board will maintain a balance of executives and non-executive directors. Currently there is 1 executive
and 4 non-executives. There are no mandatory hours for directors to be available but all directors are
expected to make themselves available for any Group business when it may arise.
Further information about the directors can be found in the Board and Senior Management report as well as
the company website at https://solvonis.com/. The Directors met 6 times throughout the year to discuss
key issues and to monitor the overall performance of the Company. All Directors attended all meetings
during the year.
Principle Seven
Appropriate governance structures
The Group’s governance structures are appropriate for a Group of its size. The Board also meets regularly
and the Directors continuously maintain an informal dialogue between themselves. The Chairman is
responsible for the effectiveness of the Board as well as primary contact with shareholders, while the
execution of the Group’s investment strategy is a matter reserved for the Chief Executive Officer. The
current Governance structure is outlined below:
Audit and Risk Committee
As per last year the Board considers all items pertaining to audit and risk as a whole. The Group’s Non-Board
Finance Director, Ryan Neates assists to. Mr Neates is a member of the Chartered Accountants of Australia
& New Zealand and has significant experience in this area to help guide the Board.
With the assistance of Mr Neates, the Board makes decisions on the appointment of auditors and the audit
fee and for ensuring that the financial performance of the Group is properly monitored and reported. As a
result of the factors listed above there has not been any formal Audit Committee meetings with all relevant
items being considered by the Board as a whole during board meetings.
Remuneration Committee
As per the Audit Committee the Board considers all items pertaining to remuneration as a whole. As a result
there were no formal Remuneration Committee meetings during the period but matters pertaining to
remuneration were discussed at board meetings. The Board is aware of the important role that a formal
Remuneration Committee plays within a Company but currently feel that the format for assessing
remuneration is appropriate for the stage of development that the Company is at.
Nominations Committee
No nominations committee has been established with all matters to be considered by the Board as a whole.

Principle Eight
Evaluation of Board Performance
Internal evaluation of the Board, the Committees and individual Directors will be undertaken on an annual
basis in the form of peer appraisal and discussions to determine the effectiveness and performance
against targets and objectives. As the Board settles and the Group is able to maintain more of a regular
operating pattern the Remuneration Committee will look to implement formal review processes against
determined key performance metrics.
Principle Nine
Remuneration policies
The Board is committed to ensuring that the creation of value for shareholders aligns with the interests of
executives and employees of the Group. Throughout the year the Company has issued the Board with
options to align their interests with those of the Company.
Principle Ten
Shareholder Communication
The Board is committed to maintaining good communication and having constructive dialogue with its
shareholders in compliance with regulations applicable to companies quoted on the LSE’s Standard List.
All shareholders are encouraged to attend the Company's Annual General Meeting where they will be given
the opportunity to interact with the Directors. Investors also have access to current information on the
Group through its website, (https://solvonis.com/).
The Board takes feedback from a wide range of shareholders (large and small) and endeavours at every
opportunity proactively to engage with all shareholders (via regular news reporting-RNS) and engage with
any specific shareholders in response to particular queries they may have from time to time. The Board
considers that its key decisions during the year have impacted equally on all members of the Company.
External Auditor
Kreston Reeves Audit LLP were appointed auditors to the Company in 2026 and have expressed their
willingness to remain in office. Once established the Audit Committee will meet with the auditor at least
twice a year to consider the results, internal procedures and controls and matters raised by the auditor. The
executive management team has met with its Auditors in relation to the 2026 audit and will present its
findings to the entire Board prior to sign off of the annual report.
The Board considers auditor independence and objectivity and the effectiveness of the audit process to be
of significant importance.
As part of the decision to recommend the appointment of the external auditor, the Board considers the
tenure of the auditor in addition to the results of its review of the effectiveness of the external auditor and
considers whether there should be a full tender process.
There are no contractual obligations restricting the Board’s choice of external auditor. The Company has a
policy of controlling the provision of non-audit services by the external auditor in order that their objectivity
and independence are safeguarded. No such non-audit services were provided in the year.

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025

Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of Solvonis Therapeutics PLC (the ‘Parent Company’) and its
subsidiaries (the “Group”), for the year ended 31 December 2025 which comprise the consolidated
statement of comprehensive income, the consolidated and company statements’ of financial position, the
consolidated and company statements’ of changes in equity, the consolidated and company statements’
of cashflows and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies.
In our opinion:
• the financial statements of Solvonis Therapeutics PLC give a true and fair view of the state of the
Group’s and of the Parent Company's affairs as at 31 December 2025 and of the Group’s loss for
the year then ended and of the Group’s cashflows position as at 31 December 2025;
• the Group financial statements have been properly prepared in accordance with UK adopted
international accounting standards; and
• the Parent Company financial statements have been properly prepared in accordance with UK
adopted international accounting standards; and
• the Group and Parent Company financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the
requirements of the Companies Act 2006.
Basis for opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and
applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s
responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the
Group in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements
in the UK, including the Financial Reporting Council’s Ethical Standard as applied to listed entities, and we
have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the
audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
An overview of the scope of our audit
As part of designing our audit, we determined materiality and assessed the risks of material misstatement
in the financial statements. In particular, we looked at where the directors made subjective judgements, for
example in respect of significant accounting estimates that involved making assumptions and considering
future events that are inherently uncertain. We also addressed the risk of management override of internal
controls, including evaluating whether there was evidence of bias by the directors that represented a risk of
material misstatement due to fraud.
We tailored the scope of our audit to ensure that we performed sufficient work to be able to give an opinion
on the financial statements as a whole, taking into account the structure of the Group and the Parent
Company, the accounting processes and controls, and the industry in which they operate.
Our scoping considerations for the Group audit were based both on financial information and risk. In total
we have identified a single distinct component within the group financial statements.

Our application of materiality
We apply the concept of materiality in planning and performing the audit, in evaluating the effect of identified
misstatements on the audit and in forming our audit opinion. Based on our professional judgement, we
determined materiality and performance materiality for the financial statements of the Group and of the
Parent Company as follows:
Group financial statements
Parent company financial
statements
Materiality
£195,000 (2024: £96,000)

3% of Company gross assets
(capped below group

Rationale for benchmark
applied
The group has no trade
currently as is in the research
and development phase and as
such an asset-focused
benchmark is considered
appropriate. Particularly given
the main value in the business
at present is its intangible asset
holdings as well as cash on
hand for future investment and
trading opportunities.
This aligns with the disclosed
key performance indicators,
which in turn reflect the focus
areas of users of the financial
statements.
The company operates as a
holding company for the group
and has historically had no
material income. As such an
asset-focused benchmark is
considered appropriate.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF SOLVONIS THERAPEUTICS PLC

We reported all audit differences found in excess of our reporting threshold to the audit committee.
For each Group component within the scope of our Group audit, we determined a materiality that is less
than our overall Group materiality.
Key audit matters
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our
audit of the financial statements of the current period and include the most significant assessed risks of
material misstatement (whether or not due to fraud) we identified, including those which had the greatest
effect on: the overall audit strategy, the allocation of resources in the audit; and directing the efforts of the
engagement team.
These matters, including our discussion of going concern, were addressed in the context of our audit of the
financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate
opinion on these matters. This is not a complete list of all risks identified by our audit.
Valuation & impairment of intangible assets: £5,667,000 (2024: £2,088,000)
Significance and nature of the key audit
matter
The group and parent company’s overall net
asset position is driven by this intangible asset
value. As such any misstatement over this
balance may have a material impact on the true
and fair position of the financial statements as a
whole.
The prior year balance primarily relates to the
issue of shares in 2018 to a founding director on
the acquisition of their ‘know how’ and patents
transferred.
During the current year the full prior year
balance of £2,088,000 was impaired in full. The
current year balance of £5,403,000 relates to
the intellectual property acquired alongside the
acquisition of the Awakn Group.
As required under IAS 36 the Directors
undertake an annual assessment of these
intangible assets to discern whether there are
any impairment indicators that result in a
impairment charge being required.
As balance is highly material in the financial
statements and subject to significant
management judgement with respect to the
presence and quantum of impairment we deem
How our audit addressed the key audit matter
We evaluated the capitalised patent balances by
recalculating the amounts recognised with
reference to the underlying agreements and
supporting documentation, to determine whether
the capitalised costs had been accurately
recorded. We assessed the nature of the
underlying transaction and considered whether
the recognition criteria for intangible assets under
IAS 38 were appropriately met.
To assess whether any indicators of impairment
existed, we reviewed the recoverable amount
assessment completed by management and
challenged their assumptions. We assessed the
useful life of the intellectual property and
considered whether current commercial
arrangements in place provide an economic
mechanism for monetising these assets.
We discussed with management and scientists
the project progress for SVN-001 attached to the
intellectual property and the anticipated timeline
to execution of revenue generation.
Finally, we compared management’s estimate of
the fair value less costs to dispose of the
intellectual property, determined based on
estimated costs of disposal in accordance with
IAS 38 and IAS 36, to the carrying amount of the
asset at the reporting date. We noted that

SOLVONIS THERAPEUTICS PLC – COMPANY NUMBER 10776788
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF SOLVONIS THERAPEUTICS PLC
29
there to be a key audit risk in place over its
valuation.
management’s assessment resulted in an
impairment for the value of the costs to dispose.
We reviewed the costs to dispose and consider
them to be reasonable based on the assumptions
used. Based on the audit procedures performed,
we found following the impairment to the fair value
less cost to dispose no evidence to indicate that
the intellectual property was further impaired as at
the reporting date.
Key observations
As the intellectual property is for project SVN-001 which is in phase III of development the ultimate
commercial success of these are currently unknown on this basis the recoverable amount has been
assessed on the basis of fair value less costs to dispose as it is not yet possible to monetise the
value in use as at the date of approval of the financial statements.
However, our audit report is not qualified in this area on the basis that:
• Audit evidence obtained did not suggest any significant issues with the project SVN-001
which would lead to increased doubt over the eventual success of the project.
Material uncertainty relating to going concern
We draw attention to Note 2.2 in the financial statements, which indicates that there is some uncertainty
over the going concern status of the Group. This is due to the business currently being in the research and
development phase where it is reliant on fundraising for its continued development of therapeutic products
to eventually progress to the stage of commercial viability. As the ultimate success of future fundraising is
an inherent uncertainty for businesses generally this in turn creates an inherent uncertainty over the going
concern of the company.
However, our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter. This is based on the outcome of the following
audit procedures where we:
• Obtained and challenged management’s assessment and consideration of the Group’s going
concern status;
• Considered the adequacy of systems and controls in place for management to prepare reliable
forecasting and to manage the on-going working capital requirements of the business; and
• Assessed the financial position of the group and parent company as at the year end date to
confirm the financial resources available; and
• Obtained and scrutinised the forecasts for the parent company’s overhead requirements for the
period to December 2027, gaining assurance that the assumptions involved were reasonable; and
• Obtained and scrutinised the forecasts of the new therapeutics project being developed for the
period to December 2027, gaining assurance that the assumptions involved were reasonable; and
• Assessed the funding requirements of the Group to continue with their development activities,
having regard for current financial resources and the management’s intentions to secure funding;
and
• Considered available evidence of the ability of the business to generate equity funding; and
• Considered other factors potentially relevant to going concern including potential litigation and
other legal matters.
We were able to gain sufficient audit evidence to confirm that going concern remains the most appropriate
basis for preparing the financial statements, however, due to the business need and the uncertainty

surrounding the availability of future funding a material uncertainty relating to going concern has been
concluded.
We have not modified our audit report in respect to these matters.
Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the Directors with respect to going concern are described in
the relevant sections of this report.
Our consideration of climate change related risks
The financial impacts on the Group of climate change and the transition to a low-carbon economy (climate
change) were considered in our audit where they have the potential to directly or indirectly impact key
judgements and estimates within the financial statements.
The Group continues to develop its assessment of the potential impacts of climate change. Climate risks
have the potential to materially impact the key judgements and estimates within the financial report. Our
audit considered those risks that could be material to the key judgements and estimates in the assessment
of the carrying value of non-current assets and closure and rehabilitation provisions.
The key judgements and estimates included in the financial statements incorporate actions and strategies,
to the extent they have been approved and can be reliably estimated in accordance with the Group’s
accounting policies. Accordingly, our key audit matters address how we have assessed the Group’s
climate-related assumptions to the extent they impact each key audit matter.
Other information
The other information comprises the information included in the Annual Report other than the financial
statements and our Auditor’s report thereon. The Directors are responsible for the other information. Our
opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise
explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. Our
responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is
materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the course of the audit,
or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent
material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in
the financial statements themselves. 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.
Our opinion on the Remuneration report
Kreston Reeves has audited the Remuneration report set out on pages 8 to 9 of the Annual Report for the
financial year. The Directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation and presentation of the
Remuneration report in accordance with the Companies Act 2006. Kreston Reeves’ responsibility is to
express an opinion on the Remuneration report, based on our audit conducted in accordance with
International Accounting Standards. In Kreston Reeves’ opinion, the Remuneration report of the Group for
the period complies with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006.

Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006
In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:
• the information given in the strategic report and the directors’ report for the financial year for which the
financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and
• the strategic report and the directors’ report have been prepared in accordance with applicable legal
requirements.
Matters on which we are required to report by exception
In the light of our knowledge and understanding of the Group and Parent Company and its environment
obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the strategic report or
the directors’ report.
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Companies Act 2006
requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:
• adequate accounting records have not been kept by the parent company, or returns adequate for our
audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or
• the parent company financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and
returns; or
• certain disclosures of directors’ remuneration specified by law are not made; or
• we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit
Responsibilities of directors
As explained more fully in the directors’ responsibilities statement (set out on pages 12 to 13), the directors
are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true
and fair view, and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation
of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, the directors are responsible for assessing the Group’s and Parent
Company’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 either intend to liquidate the
Group or parent company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the 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. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not a guarantee that an audit
conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) 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
financial statements.
Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design
procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of
irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities,
including fraud, is detailed below.

SOLVONIS THERAPEUTICS PLC – COMPANY NUMBER 10776788
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF SOLVONIS THERAPEUTICS PLC
32
Capability of the audit in detecting irregularities, including fraud
• Discussions with management and assessment of known or suspected instances of non-compliance
with laws and regulations (including health and safety) and fraud, and review of the reports made by
management; and
• Assessment of identified fraud risk factors; and
• Testing of internal controls procedures relating to key business cycles more susceptible to fraud and
other irregularities including cash, payroll and credit card expenditure; and
• Challenging assumptions and judgements made by management in its significant accounting
estimates, in particular with respect to impairment indicators with respect to intangible assets; and
• Performing analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected relationships, including
related party transactions, that may indicate risks of material misstatement due to fraud; and
• Confirmation of related parties with management, and review of transactions throughout the period to
identify any previously undisclosed transactions with related parties outside the normal course of
business; and
• Reading minutes of meetings of those charged with governance and reviewing correspondence with
relevant tax and regulatory authorities; and
• Review of significant and unusual transactions and evaluation of the underlying financial rationale
supporting the transactions; and
• Identifying and testing journal entries, with the use of data analytics, in order to identify journals
carrying a higher fraud risk profile and substantiating these to appropriate audit evidence.
Because of the inherent limitations of an audit, there is a risk that we will not detect all irregularities,
including those leading to a material misstatement in the financial statements or non-compliance with
regulation. This risk increases the more that compliance with a law or regulation is removed from the events
and transactions reflected in the financial statements, as we will be less likely to become aware of
instances of non-compliance.
As part of an audit in accordance with ISAs (UK), we exercise professional judgment and maintain
professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:
• Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the 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.
• 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 or the parent company’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 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 or the parent company to cease to continue as a going
concern.
• Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, including the
disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and
events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
• Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or
business activities within the Group to express an opinion on the consolidated financial
statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the Group
audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.
We communicate with those charged with governance 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.
Other matters which we are required to address
We were appointed by the Audit Committee in December 2024 to audit the financial statements. Our total
uninterrupted period of engagement is two periods, covering the financial year ended 31 December 2025.
Non-audit services prohibited by the Financial Reporting Council’s Ethical Standard were not provided to
the Group or the Parent Company and we remain independent of the Group and the Parent Company in
conducting our audit.
Our audit opinion is consistent with the additional report to the Audit Committee.
Use of our Report
This report is made solely to the company’s members, as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16
of the Companies Act 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the company’s
members those matters we are required to state to them in an auditor report and for no other purpose. To
the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the
company and the company’s members as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we
have formed.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025
41
1 GENERAL INFORMATION
Solvonis Therapeutics Plc (“the Company” or “Solvonis”) was incorporated in England and Wales as a
limited company on 18 May 2017 as Graft Polymer (UK) Limited and was re-registered as a public limited
company, Graft Polymer (UK) Plc, on 1 July 2021. On 6 January 2025 the company changed its name to
Solvonis Therapeutics Plc. The Company is domiciled in England and Wales with its registered office at
Eccleston Yards, 25 Eccleston Place, London, SW1W 9NF. The Company’s registered number is
10776788.
The principal activities of the Company and all of its subsidiaries collectively referred to as “the Group” are
the development of novel small-molecule therapeutics for high-burden central nervous system ("CNS")
disorders.
The Group financial statements have been prepared and approved by the Directors in accordance with
International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), International standards and Interpretations (collectively
IFRSs) issued by the International Accounting Standards Boards (IASB) and with those parts of the
Companies Act 2006 applicable to those companies reporting under IFRS.
2 ACCOUNTING POLICIES
IAS 8 requires that management shall use its judgement in developing and applying accounting policies that
result in information which is relevant to the economic decision-making needs of users, that are reliable,
free from bias, prudent, complete and represent faithfully the financial position, financial performance and
cash flows of the entity.
2.1 Basis of preparation
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with UK-adopted international accounting
standards in conformity with the Companies Act 2006.
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention unless stated otherwise.
The principal accounting policies are set out below and have, unless otherwise stated, been applied
consistently for all periods presented in these financial statements. The financial statements have been
prepared in £GBP and presented to the nearest £’000.
The functional currency for each entity in the Group is determined as the currency of the primary economic
environment in which it operates. The functional currency of the Company is Pounds Sterling (£) as this is
the currency that finance was raised in.
The functional currency of subsidiaries is the currency that mainly influences labour, material and other
costs of providing services. Consequently the functional currencies of entities domiciled in Europe, Canada
and United State is the Euro, Canadian Dollar and US Dollar respectively. The presentational currency of
the Group is Pounds Sterling (£). Foreign operations were translated in accordance with the policies set out
further below in the notes at note 2.4.
The Group presents its financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2025 and presents
comparatives for the year ending 31 December 2024.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025

2.2 Going concern
The Directors have assessed the going concern status of the Company for a period of not less than twelve
months from the anticipated date of approval of the financial statements. As a clinical-stage, pre-revenue
biopharmaceutical company, Solvonis Therapeutics Plc funds its operations through periodic equity capital
raises rather than commercial revenue generation and consequently need to exercise caution over
expenditures.
As a result the Directors have reviewed detailed cash flow forecasts and a working capital model prepared
by management in forming their conclusion around going concern. The forecasts reflects that management
are gaining greater control over their cost base post acquiring significant intellectual property though the
Awakn acquisition. While there is not an immediate need for capital the Board is aware of the need for pre-
revenue Company’s to fund their operations through equity and are in constant communication with its
brokers to assess the funding landscape. The Directors also retain a number of levers to manage cash
outflows should circumstances require, including the ability to defer discretionary R&D programmes whilst
still achieving their objectives.
The Directors are satisfied that the going concern basis of preparation remains appropriate. However, they
draw attention to the fact that the Company's ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on the
successful completion of further equity fundraising within the assessment period. This represents a
material uncertainty as disclosed in the auditors report and the financial statements do not include any
adjustments that would result from the going concern basis of preparation being inappropriate. Ultimately
after considering all of these factors the Directors are comfortable with the financial statements being
prepared on a going concern basis.
2.3 Basis of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial statements of the Company and entities
controlled by the Company (its subsidiaries) made up to 31 December each year. Per IFRS 10, control is
achieved when the Company:
• has the power over the investee;
• is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee; and
• has the ability to use its power to affects its returns.
The Company 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 listed above. When the Company has
less than a majority of the voting rights of an investee, it considers that it has power over the investee when
the voting rights are sufficient to give it the practical ability to direct the relevant activities of the investee
unilaterally. The Company considers all relevant facts and circumstances in assessing whether or not the
Company’s voting rights in an investee are sufficient to give it power, including:
• the size of the Company’s holding of voting rights relative to the size and dispersion of holdings of
the other vote holders;
• potential voting rights held by the Company, other vote holders or other parties;
• rights arising from other contractual arrangements; and

SOLVONIS THERAPEUTICS PLC – COMPANY NUMBER 10776788
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025
43
• any additional facts and circumstances that indicate that the Company has, or does not have,
the current ability to direct the relevant activities at the time that decisions need to be made,
including voting patterns at previous shareholders’ meetings.
Consolidation of a subsidiary begins when the Company obtains control over the subsidiary and ceases
when the Company loses control of the subsidiary. Specifically, the results of subsidiaries acquired or
disposed of during the year are included in profit or loss from the date the Company gains control until the
date when the Company ceases to control the subsidiary. Where necessary, adjustments are made to the
financial statements of subsidiaries to bring the accounting policies used into line with the Group’s
accounting policies.
All intragroup assets and liabilities, equity, income, expenses and cash flows relating to transactions
between the members of the Group are eliminated on consolidation.
2.4 Foreign currency translation
i. Functional and presentation currency
Items included in the financial statements for each of the Group’s entities are measured using the currency
of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates (‘the functional currency’). The
consolidated financial statements is presented in £ Sterling, which is the Company’s presentation and
functional currency. The individual financial statements of each of the Company’s wholly owned
subsidiaries are prepared in the currency of the primary economic environment in which it operates (its
functional currency). IAS 21 The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates requires that assets and
liabilities be translated using the exchange rate at period end, and income, expenses and cash flow items
are translated using the rate that approximates the exchange rates at the dates of the transactions (i.e. the
average rate for the period). The foreign exchange differences on translation is recognised in other
comprehensive income (loss).
ii. Transactions and balances
Transactions denominated in a foreign currency are translated into the functional currency at the exchange
rate at the date of the transaction. Assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are translated to the functional
currency at rates of exchange ruling at balance date. Gains or losses arising from settlement of transactions
and from translation at period-end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign
currencies are recognised in the income statement for the period.
iii. Group companies
The results and financial position of all the Group entities that have a functional currency different from the
presentation currency are translated into the presentation currency as follows:
- assets and liabilities for each balance sheet presented are translated at the closing rate at the
date of the balance sheet;
- income and expenses for each income statement are translated at the average exchange rate; and
all resulting exchange differences are recognised as a separate component of equity.
On consolidation, exchange differences arising from the translation of the net investment in foreign
operations are taken to shareholders’ equity. When a foreign operation is partially disposed or sold,

SOLVONIS THERAPEUTICS PLC – COMPANY NUMBER 10776788
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025
44
exchange differences that were recorded in equity are recognised in the income statement as part of the
gain or loss on sale.
2.5 Impairment of non-financial assets
Non-financial assets and intangible assets not subject to amortisation are tested annually for impairment
at each reporting date and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount
may not be recoverable.
An impairment review is based on forecasted future cash flows. If the expected discounted future cash flow
from the use of the assets and their eventual disposal is less than the carrying amount of the assets, an
impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss and not subsequently reversed.
For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are
largely independent cash flows (cash generating units or ‘CGUs’).
2.6 Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash at bank and in hand, and demand deposits with banks and other
financial institutions and bank overdrafts.
2.7 Financial instruments
IFRS 9 requires an entity to address the classification, measurement and recognition of financial assets and
liabilities.
a) Classification
The Group classifies its financial assets in the following measurement categories:
• those to be measured at amortised cost; and
• those to be measured subsequently at fair value through profit or loss.
The classification depends on the Group’s business model for managing the financial assets and the
contractual terms of the cash flows.
The Group classifies financial assets as at amortised cost only if both of the following criteria are met:
• the asset is held within a business model whose objective is to collect contractual cash flows; and
• the contractual terms give rise to cash flows that are solely payment of principal and interest.
b) Recognition
Purchases and sales of financial assets are recognised on trade date (that is, the date on which the Group
commits to purchase or sell the asset). Financial assets are derecognised when the rights to receive cash
flows from the financial assets have expired or have been transferred and the Group has transferred
substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership.
c) Measurement
At initial recognition, the Group measures a financial asset at its fair value plus, in the case of a financial
asset not at fair value through profit or loss (FVPL), transaction costs that are directly attributable to the
acquisition of the financial asset.
Transaction costs of financial assets carried at FVPL are expensed in profit or loss.

SOLVONIS THERAPEUTICS PLC – COMPANY NUMBER 10776788
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025
45
Debt instruments
Amortised cost: Assets that are held for collection of contractual cash flows, where those cash flows
represent solely payments of principal and interest, are measured at amortised cost. Interest income from
these financial assets is included in finance income using the effective interest rate method. Any gain or loss
arising on derecognition is recognised directly in profit or loss and presented in other gains/(losses) together
with foreign exchange gains and losses. Impairment losses are presented as a separate line item in the
statement of profit or loss.
d) Impairment
The Group assesses, on a forward looking basis, the expected credit losses associated with any debt
instruments carried at amortised cost. The impairment methodology applied depends on whether there has
been a significant increase in credit risk. For trade receivables, the Group applies the simplified approach
permitted by IFRS 9, which requires expected lifetime losses to be recognised from initial recognition of the
receivables.
2.8 Trade and other receivables
Trade receivables are initially recognised at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using
the effective interest method, less any allowance for expected credit losses. Trade receivables are generally
due for settlement within 30 days.
2.9 Trade and other payables
These amounts represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the consolidated Group prior to the
end of the financial year and which are unpaid. Due to their short-term nature, they are measured at
amortised cost and are not discounted. The amounts are unsecured and are usually paid within 30 days of
recognition.
2.10 Equity
Share capital is determined using the nominal value of shares that have been issued.
Share capital to be issued relates to salaries foregone by Directors and other consultants. Upon the issue
publication of a prospectus shares will be issued to compensate the necessary parties and will be allocated
amongst the share capital and share premium accounts.
The Share premium account includes any premiums received on the initial issuing of the share capital. Any
transaction costs associated with the issuing of shares are deducted from the Share premium account, net
of any related income tax benefits.
For the purposes of presenting consolidated financial statements, the assets and liabilities of group’s
foreign operations are translated at the exchange rates prevailing at the balance sheet date and items of
income and expenditure are translated at the average exchange rate for the period. Exchange differences
arising are recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in the Foreign Currency Reserve
within equity.
Equity-settled share-based payments are credited to a share-based payment reserve as a component of
equity until related options or warrants are exercised or lapse.
The foreign exchange reserve policy is set out in note 2.4.

Capital reduction reserve represents funds sent from the parent company to subsidiary that on the approval
of Directors was reclassified from a loan in the subsidiary to an investment.
Retained losses includes all current and prior period results as disclosed in the income statement.
2.11 Share based payments
The Group has made awards of warrants and options on its unissued share capital to certain parties in return
for services provided to the Group. The valuation of these warrants involved making a number of critical
estimates relating to price volatility, future dividend yields, expected life of the options and interest rates.
These assumptions have been integrated into the Black Scholes Option Pricing model and the Monte Carlo
valuation model to derive a value for any share-based payments. These assumptions are described in more
detail in note 20.
2.12 Earnings per share
The Group presents basic and diluted earnings per share data for its Ordinary Shares.
Basic earnings per Ordinary Share is calculated by dividing the profit or loss attributable to Shareholders by
the weighted average number of Ordinary Shares outstanding during the period.
Diluted earnings per Ordinary Share is calculated by adjusting the earnings and number of Ordinary Shares
for the effects of dilutive potential Ordinary Shares.
2.13 Taxation
Tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the period. Taxable profit differs from profit as reported
in the income statement because it excludes items of income and expense that are taxable or deductible in
other years and it further excludes items that are never taxable or deductible. The liability for current tax is
calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date.
Deferred tax is proved in full on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities
and their carrying amounts in the financial statement. Deferred tax is determined using tax rates (and laws)
that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date and are expected to apply when
the related deferred income tax asset is realised of the deferred tax liability is settled.
2.14 Intangible assets
Intangible assets acquired are initially recognised at cost. Indefinite life intangible assets are not amortised
and are subsequently measured at cost less any impairment. The gains and losses recognised in profit or
loss arising from the derecognition of intangible assets are measured as the difference between net
disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the intangible asset.
Intangible asset impairment reviews are undertaken annually, or more frequently if events or changes in
circumstances indicate a potential impairment. The method and useful lives of finite life intangible assets
are reviewed annually. Changes in the expected pattern of consumption or useful life are accounted for
prospectively by changing the amortisation method or period.
2.15 Investments in Subsidiaries
Investments in Group undertakings are stated at cost.

2.16 Financial liabilities
Other financial liabilities are initially recognised at fair values less any directly attributable transaction costs.
Subsequent to initial recognition, these liabilities are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest
method.
2.17 Borrowings
Borrowings are initially recognised at fair value, net of directly attributable transaction costs. They are
subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. The difference between
proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption value is recognised in profit or loss over the term of
the borrowing.
Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the Group has an unconditional right to defer
settlement for at least twelve months after the reporting date.
2.18 Critical judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and
judgements and form assumptions that affects the reported amounts of the assets, liabilities, revenue and
costs during the periods presented therein, and the disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the
financial information. Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated and based on management’s
historical experience and other factors, including future expectations and events that are believed to be
reasonable.
Share based payments (Note 20)
The Group issues options and warrants to its employees, directors, investors and advisors. These are valued
in accordance with IFRS 2 “Share-based payments”. In calculating the related charge on issuing shares and
warrants the Group will use a variety of estimates and judgements in respect of inputs used including share
price volatility, risk free rate, and expected life. Changes to these inputs may impact the related charge. In
the period the Group did not perform any new valuations but released expenses to the statement of other
comprehensive income from valuations in prior periods. The charge processed in relation to the current year
was £998,590 (2024: £317,449).
Impairment of intangible asset (Note 10)
During the year the Group disposed of its wholly owned subsidiary Graft Polymer IP Ltd. As a result of this
disposal intangible assets were impaired by way of significant know-how and intellectual property leaving
the Group. As a result of this disposal the Directors have considered it appropriate to impair the intangible
assets linked to this intellectual property to £0 (2024: £2,087,750)
Acquisition and treatment of the Awakn Group (Note 21)
In the year, the Company acquired the Awakn Group. A critical judgement was required as to whether this
transaction constituted a business combination under IFRS 3 Business Combinations. Having assessed the
acquired set of activities and assets, the Directors concluded that the acquisition did not meet the definition
of a business at the acquisition date. In particular, the Directors determined that the acquired assets did not
include a substantive process — the acquired inputs lacked an organised workforce and other critical
processes that would significantly contribute to the ability to create outputs. Accordingly, the acquisition
has been accounted for as an asset acquisition and subsequently appears as an intangible asset on the
statement of financial position. No goodwill has been recognised, and transaction costs have been
capitalised as part of the cost of the assets acquired. As a result of the classification as an intangible asset

the Directors have performed an assessment at year end and concluded that no impairment is required in
relation to the core assets.
Valuation of intangible asset (Note 10)
The intangible assets acquired as part of the Awakn Group has been valued at fair value less costs to
disposal as per the recommendations outlined in IAS 38.

There is no difference between the diluted loss per share and the basic loss per share presented. Share
options and warrants could potentially dilute basic earnings per share in the future but were not included in
the calculation of diluted earnings per share as the Group was loss making and therefore the options and
warrants are anti-dilutive for the year presented.

On 27 May 2025, the Company acquired the entire share capital of Awakn Life Sciences Corp and all of its
subsidiaries (collectively the “Awakn Group”) which can be evidenced in detail at Note 21. With it Solvonis
acquired intellectual property related to mental health disorders which it plans to develop and bring to
market. The transaction has been evaluated and assessed as an asset acquisition due to the absence of a
substantive process which is detailed at note 21.
2
Per IAS 38 accounting standards, intangible assets have been valued at fair value less costs of disposal.
Although the Board do not believe the assets to be impaired in any way, to align with this standard a small
impairment charge has been processed to recognise estimated costs of disposal.
3
During the year the Group disposed of its wholly owned subsidiary Graft Polymer IP Ltd. As a result of this
disposal intangible assets were impaired by way of significant know-how and intellectual property leaving
the Group. As a result of this disposal the Directors have considered it appropriate to impair the intangible
assets linked to this intellectual property.
The Board has performed an assessment of the intangible assets and concluded that at year end there are
no indicators that would suggest the core assets are impaired. The Board will continue to assess the
intangible assets at regular intervals for signs of impairment and impair them if required.

21. ASSET ACQUISITION
Acquisition of Awakn Life Sciences Group
On 27 May 2025, Solvonis acquired all of the common shares of Awakn Corp Life Sciences (“Awakn”),
restricted share units of Awakn ("RSUs") and deferred share units of Awakn ("DSUs") pursuant to a plan of
arrangement under section 288 of the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia).
To determine the accounting treatment the Directors, need to consider whether Awakn constitutes a
business.
Under IFRS 3 a business is an “integrated set of activities and assets that is capable of being conducted and
managed for the purpose of providing goods or services to customers or generating income from ordinary
activities.”
To determine this a business must have 3 elements listed below:

i) Inputs: economic resources that create outputs
ii) Processes: systems, standards or protocols that when applied to an input can create outputs
iii) Outputs: the result of inputs and processes
On analysis of Awakn, the Directors have concluded that it does not have the 3 elements listed above and
subsequently does not have a substantive process to suggest the existence of a business. As a result, the
acquisition of Awakn is treated as an asset acquisition and in line with IFRS is accounted for as an intangible
assets in the financial statements.
The details of the acquisition of Awakn are as follows:

2024 - Discontinued operations
A discontinued operation is a component of the Group that has been disposed of or classified as held for
sale and that represents a separate major line of business or geographical area of operation, is part of a
single co-ordinated plan to dispose of such a line of business or area of operations, or is a subsidiary
acquired exclusively with a view to resale. The results of discontinued operations are presented separately
on the face of the Statement of Comprehensive Income.
The Board recently undertook a review of its business and operations, pursuant to which it was decided that
the Slovenian operation, Graft Polymer D.O.O (principally, an industrial polymer products manufacturer),
was considered no longer commercially viable due to forecasted negative cashflow as a result of falling
sales and rising costs, with no immediate prospect of becoming profitable in the short to medium term. The
Group disposed of Graft Polymer D.O.O on 2 May 2024. A gain on deconsolidation as at date of disposal of
£125,000 was recognised and taken to the Statement of Comprehensive Income.

22. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND RISK MANAGEMENT
Capital Risk Management
The Company manages its capital to ensure that entities in the Group will be able to continue as a going
concern while maximising the return to stakeholders. The overall strategy of the Company and the Group is
to minimise costs and liquidity risk while still executing on the Group’s overall business strategy.
The capital structure of the Group consists of equity attributable to equity holders of the parent, comprising
issued share capital, foreign exchange reserves and retained earnings as disclosed in the Consolidated
Statement of Changes of Equity.
The Group is exposed to risk through its normal operations, the most significant of which are foreign
exchange and liquidity risks. Sensitivity analysis has not been performed because the potential impact is
not considered material. The management of these risks is vested to the Board of Directors.
Currency Risk
The Group operates in a global market with cost possibly arising in a number of currencies and is exposed
to foreign currency risk arising from commercial transactions, translation of assets and liabilities and net

investment in foreign subsidiaries. Exposure to commercial transactions arise from purchases by operating
companies in currencies other than the Companies’ functional currency. Currency exposures are reviewed
regularly.
The Group has exposure to foreign exchange risk through research and development expenditure that is
incurred in international markets as well as their foreign currency denominated cash balances.
Accordingly, movements in the Sterling exchange rate against these currencies could have a detrimental
effect on the Group’s results and financial condition. Such changes are not considered likely to have a
material effect on the Group’s financial position at 31 December 2025. Funds of the parent company are
held with HSBC, one of the largest and most reputable high street banks in the UK.

Liquidity Risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will encounter difficulty in meeting the obligations associated with its
financial liabilities that are settled by delivering cash or another financial asset. The Group’s approach to
managing liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that it will have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities
when they are due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or
risking damage to the group’s reputation.
The Group seeks to manage liquidity risk by regularly reviewing cash flow budgets and forecasts to ensure
that sufficient liquidity is available to meet foreseeable needs and to invest cash assets safely and
profitably. The Group deems there is sufficient liquidity for the foreseeable future.
