The Company has filed its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2025 ("FYE 2025"), with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). The report provides a comprehensive overview of the Company's financial performance, operations, and strategic outlook. Investors and other stakeholders can access the full filing on the SEC's website at www.sec.gov or through the Investor Relations section of IGC Pharma's website at www.investor.igcpharma.com.

"Fiscal Year 2025 stands as a testament to IGC Pharma's unwavering commitment to addressing one of the most pressing global health challenges: Alzheimer's disease," said Ram Mukunda CEO of IGC Pharma. "We have not only advanced our lead asset, IGC-AD1, through critical clinical milestones but have also strategically expanded our reach and solidified our innovative position through AI integration and a growing pipeline. Our progress reflects the dedication of our team, the strength of our scientific foundation, and our relentless pursuit of meaningful solutions for patients and their families. IGC Pharma is not just developing therapies; we are building a future where Alzheimer's is no longer an insurmountable challenge."

Highlights of a Pivotal Year for IGC Pharma:

• During Fiscal 2025, the Company's revenue decreased from about $1.3 million in Fiscal 2024 to about $1.2 million in Fiscal 2025. The primary source of revenue in both years was from the Life Sciences segment, encompassing the sale of our formulations as white-labeled manufactured products, among others. Fiscal 2024, the Company also generated $164 thousand in revenue from the infrastructure business. However, in Fiscal 2025, revenue from Infrastructure was nil due to the strategic shift and the completion of all infrastructure projects. Excluding Infrastructure, revenue from the Life Sciences segment increased from $1,181 thousand in Fiscal 2024 to $1,271 thousand in Fiscal 2025.

• The Company reported selling, general, and administrative (SG&A) expenses for Fiscal 2025 at approximately $4.4 million, representing a decrease of approximately $2.3 million, or 35%, compared to the $6.7 million recorded in Fiscal 2024. This significant decline in SG&A expenses is attributable to the Company's focused efforts to optimize corporate-level operational efficiency by lowering employee-related costs due to headcount alignment and compensation restructuring, implementing better inventory management systems, and reducing spending on legal and professional services through more efficient vendor management. In a demonstration of cost and cash discipline, management elected to convert approximately $750 thousand in bonuses into performance-based compensation, payable only upon the achievement of defined business milestones, which also align with shareholder interest.

• In Fiscal 2025, the Company reported R&D expenses of approximately $3.7 million, representing a decrease of $118 thousand or 3% compared to approximately $3.8 million in Fiscal 2024. The R&D expenses are primarily attributed to the progression of CALMA trial on IGC-AD1 and pre-clinical studies on TGR-63, indicating the Company's dedication to advancing its product pipeline. We expect to divert more resources to the development of TGR-63 and the CLAMA trial. As such, the Company anticipates an increase in R&D expenses.

• Through fiscal 2025, IGC raised about $4.64 million through a combination of private equity placements and at-the-market ("ATM") offering program.

• Subsequent to the March 31, 2025, on June 24, 2025, the Company extended its existing loan agreement with O-Bank, Co., Ltd., for one year, on substantially the same terms as previously disclosed on Form 8-K filed on August 2, 2024, with minor modifications to the facility renewal fees and interest rate.

• Net loss for Fiscal 2025 was approximately $7.1 million or $0.09 per share, compared to approximately $13 million or $0.22 per share for Fiscal 2024 an improvement of about $6 million.

• Looking Ahead to Fiscal 2026 - IGC Pharma is strategically positioned for continued growth and innovation. Key objectives include: (1) completing the CALMA Phase 2 trial; (2) launching a second Phase 2 study to evaluate IGC-AD1's potential disease-modifying effects; and (3) deploying a beta version of MINT-AD, our AI-based diagnostic tool. We remain committed to creating long-term value for shareholders and accelerating breakthroughs that can change the lives of those affected by Alzheimer's disease.
