  3. ‌Strategic alignment of human resources

    The objectives pursued include the implementation and development of strategies aimed at motivating and retaining valuable employees, as well as attracting staff with competencies adapted to the pharmaceutical industry, aligned with current labour market trends.

    1. ‌Modern HR management

      In 2025, the employee retention rate at company level was 97.57%, compared with a 95% target and 97.05% in the same period of 2024.

      The annual training plan for 2025, developed as part of the Academia a+ project, supports the development of employees' competencies and is adapted to the needs and dynamics of the training requirements identified across organizational structures and employees. Thus, in 2025 an average of 46 hours of professional training per employee was planned, while an average of 48.91 hours per employee was achieved. Competency development programs were organized in areas with legal training requirements, as well as sessions delivered by internal trainers, external providers and through the e learning platform on relevant topics.

      The mentoring program launched in 2022 has so far recorded 44 employees who have been trained and certified as trainers, 30 colleagues recognized with mentor certification and 115 colleagues who participated in public speaking courses and obtained certification.

      Within the a+ Technical College, specific activities were carried out in 2025 to strengthen collaboration with the university and pre university educational environment. These included the organization of internship programs for 156 students (fields of study: pharmacy, chemistry, electronic engineering, automation engineering, chemical engineering, economics, biomedical engineering), the organization of educational visits for 346 students (fields: pharmacy, economics, engineering, biomedical engineering, chemistry, biology), the provision of practical training placements for 159 high school students enrolled in the qualifications agreed within the partnerships signed with technological high schools as part of the Academia a+ program (chemical operator, automation technician, mechatronics technician, chemical laboratory technician), as well as the support of educational activities through study visits for 938 students within the "Școala Altfel" program and other initiatives.

      In 2025, the ninth edition of the Perform a+ program, initiated in 2016, took place. Conducted between October and December with 43 participants on the company's platform, the students successfully completed the program, having been selected from a total of 78 applicants with specializations in biomedical engineering, biology, chemistry, pharmacy and chemical engineering.

      Within Academia a+, two PEO funded projects are also being implemented: "Education in Action: Improving the accessibility and relevance of vocational and technical education through internship placements within Antibiotice S.A." and "Antibiotice Skills: Enhancing students' competencies and facilitating their integration into the labour market".

    2. ‌Modernization of organizational culture

      According to the work plan on organizational climate, in 2025 a series of initiatives, programs and activities with a sporting, recreational, social and cultural character were organized. Among these, the most significant were "Family Day", a special event organized on 24 June 2025, attended by more than 500 participants (employees together with their families and children), the Trail at the Cabin sports event (with the participation of 14 employees), the planning of health prevention and monitoring campaigns, as well as a festive event marking the 70th anniversary of the company's

      activity, which included artistic moments and the recognition of employees with outstanding achievements during 2025.

      Further details regarding the programs and specific actions related to human resources are presented in the ESRS - Social chapter of the Sustainability Statement.

  4. ‌Strategic adaptation of the product portfolio
    1. ‌Portfolio management

      The expansion of the product portfolio represents an essential factor in the development of Antibiotice S.A. on both the domestic and international markets and is achieved through the company's own research and development activities, as well as through strategic business development initiatives.

      The criteria considered in portfolio management are:

      • market consumption potential;

      • therapeutic trends;

      • performance achieved per therapeutic unit;

      • compatibility with existing production flows.

        The products in the current portfolio are closely monitored, with specific actions carried out to ensure alignment with the requirements of the national market and with international regulations.

        The current portfolio comprises 199 marketed products and includes:

      • generic medicines for human use (prescription medicines - RX and non-prescription medicines

        - over-the-counter/OTC);

      • food supplements, cosmetics and medical devices;

      • active substances obtained by biosynthesis process by cultivation of the microorganism

        Streptomyces noursei;

      • veterinary products (prescription medicines and food supplements);

      • biofertilizers.

        The portfolio of human prescription medicines (RX) is structured into the following therapeutic classes: anti-infectives, including medicines intended for the treatment of tuberculosis, cardiovascular medicines, digestive tract and metabolism medicines, preparations for the treatment of gynecological conditions, dermatological preparations and central nervous system medicines.

        The portfolio of human non-prescription products (non-RX) includes OTC medicines, food supplements, cosmetic products and medical devices. These are intended for maintaining health,

    2. ‌Promotional activity
      1. Communication to healthcare professionals (PDS)

        Communication to healthcare professionals is carried out through direct medical promotion visits, group presentations, roundtables and workshops intended for specialist physicians, general practitioners and pharmacists, as well as through various other specific projects conducted by the medical representatives' team.

        Another promotional tool is participation in national congresses and conferences organized by the main professional, academic and scientific societies and associations in Romania.

        In 2025, Antibiotice S.A. participated in events dedicated to the medical specialties of Dermatology, Infectious Diseases and Tuberculosis, Pulmonology, ENT, Urology, Anesthesiology and Intensive Care, Gynecology, Cardiology, Emergency Medicine, Family Medicine and Pharmacy, with the following objectives: increasing the visibility of the corporate brand and product brands, launching and promoting products, networking and strengthening relationships with partners, as well as gaining a better understanding of the market and competition.

        The promotion of the veterinary product portfolio to professionals in the field was carried out through a coherent mix of dedicated actions focused on scientific information, professional development and

        the strengthening of partnership relations. These initiatives targeted distributor partners, veterinary clinics and pharmacies, breeders, canine clubs and training schools through product presentation sessions, specialized training, technical support materials and expert consultancy.

        Professional communication was strengthened through partnerships with the main professional associations, including the Romanian Association of Companion Animal Veterinarians (AMVAC), the Romanian Society of Veterinary Dermatology (SRDV), the Romanian Society of Feline Medicine (SRMF) and the "Ion Ionescu de la Brad" University of Life Sciences in Iași (USV Iași). In addition, the regional VetAria+ symposia were organized with more than 600 participants across Iași, Bucharest, Cluj and Timișoara. These events facilitated the exchange of best practices, the update of scientific information and the positioning of the company as a partner within the veterinary medical community.

        Brand visibility was further expanded through participation in dedicated events such as PET EXPO, Animal Fest, Pet Event and Pet Care Fest, as well as through digital campaigns and collaborations with influencers from the pet care sector.

    3. ‌Portfolio development

      In line with the strategic directions established through the business plan "The Future Together 2030", research and development activities represent an essential pillar of the company's growth strategy and portfolio consolidation. The development of the product portfolio is carried out both through projects implemented within the INOVA a+ Research and Development Center and through the acquisition of licenses for products that the company intends to include in its portfolio, but which are not compatible with the existing manufacturing flows.

      In 2025, research stages were planned for a total of 54 projects within the INOVA a+ Research Center. The complexity of the pharmaceutical product development process, combined with the requirements imposed by the international regulations applicable to the sector, gives research and development activities a multi-year character. Thus, out of the total projects planned for 2025, 38 projects represent continuations of activities initiated in the previous year.

      The distribution of research projects in 2025 by divisions was as follows:

      • Topical Products Division: 28 projects;

      • Oral Solid Dosage Forms Division: 11 projects;

      • Sterile Injectable Products Division: 15 projects.

        In 2025, research and development activities were completed for two generic medicines, for which the marketing authorization dossiers were prepared and submitted to the European authorities. In addition, the research for four cosmetic products and two food supplements was completed, these products being developed in accordance with the applicable safety and quality requirements.

        At the same time, in 2025 technological scaling and validation activities were carried out for nine projects, with the objective of ensuring the reproducibility of technological processes and the consistency of finished product quality.

        Within the Clinical Studies Center, stages for three clinical studies were conducted during 2025. Two of these studies were completed, while the third will continue in 2026. The results obtained from clinical studies represent a mandatory component of the marketing authorization documentation and an important advantage in communicating the benefits of Antibiotice branded products to healthcare professionals.

        Concurrently with the ongoing research and development activities, during 2025 specific actions were carried out to prepare and submit the documentation for the project "INOVA a+ Research and Development Center and Critical Medicines Production", a project financed through the European Union's STEP program (The Strategic Technologies for Europe Platform). The objective of this initiative is to develop research infrastructure, stimulate pharmaceutical innovation and facilitate the transfer of technology to manufacturing activities.

        The actions undertaken focused on the technical and scientific substantiation of the project, the evaluation and sizing of the consumables required for research activities, as well as the training needs and skills development for the personnel involved.

        During 2025, 9 portfolio assimilation projects for veterinary use were carried out, at different stages of development:

      • Veterinary nutraceutical portfolio: seven projects addressing conditions in the following therapeutic areas: urinary, renal, cardiovascular, central nervous system and musculoskeletal.

      • Veterinary antiparasitic portfolio: two projects.

        Through in-licensing activities, 17 new products were contracted in 2025 from the following categories:

        → 6 human use products (4 molecules), including:

        • 4 oral products from class C (Cardiovascular);

        • 1 injectable product from class J (Anti-infectives);

        • 1 injectable product from class H (Hormonal products).

          → 11 veterinary use products (8 molecules), including:

          • 4 antiparasitic medicines;

          • 7 supplements that will expand the VetAria+ product range with advanced formulations intended for the treatment of common conditions in dogs and cats:

            • 3 products in soft chew form;

            • 1 prefilled syringe with palatable paste;

            • 1 palatable gel in a bottle with a dosing syringe;

            • 1 suspension in a bottle with a dosing syringe.

          These products are expected to contribute to sales starting in 2026 in the case of veterinary supplements, while the veterinary antiparasitic products are planned to be launched in 2027. Human use products are expected to be launched on the market starting in 2028, when the marketing authorizations are anticipated to be obtained.

  5. ‌Continuous improvement of the integrated management system

    (Quality, Environment, Occupational Health and Safety)

    Ensuring product quality and reducing quality incidents, as well as incidents of any kind that may have repercussions on human health and the environment, represent a primary ethical, moral and professional concern at the company level.

    In the context of its continuous strategic development, Antibiotice remains permanently focused on improving its processes and aligning with the continuously evolving legislation. In this regard, during 2025, the following inspections related to major change authorizations and GLP/GMP certification were conducted from a quality perspective:

    • On 28 January 2025, the ANMDMR conducted a GLP recertification inspection (Good Laboratory Practice) at the Clinical Studies Center.

    • On 29 January 2025, an ANMDMR inspection took place for the authorization of the new finished products warehouse.

    • On 6 February 2025, ANMDMR carried out an inspection to authorize the installation of the RABS system (Restricted Access Barrier Systems for aseptic processes) on the existing lines within the Parenteral Products section, in order to comply with the revised Annex 1 of the Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) Guidelines.

    • On 9 May 2025, an ANMDMR inspection was conducted to authorize the second microbiological testing laboratory (Microbiological activity determination).

    • During 15-19 September 2025, ANMDMR conducted a GMP recertification inspection (Good Manufacturing Practice) covering:

      • all manufacturing flows for human medicines and investigational medicinal products, including partial manufacturing (secondary packaging), together with the related utilities for each production flow;

      • the active pharmaceutical ingredients manufacturing flow;

      • testing laboratories responsible for releasing medicinal products to the market;

      • warehouses for raw materials, packaging materials and finished products within the company;

      • the import flows of medicinal products and intermediates from third countries.

    In addition, in 2025 five audits were conducted by partners regarding the contract manufacturing of parenteral products, oral solid dosage forms and active pharmaceutical ingredients. The audits were completed successfully, and Antibiotice continued the partnerships already established.

    Regarding periodic training on GMP specific topics, internal training sessions were conducted in accordance with the approved annual training plan. Externally, members of the Quality Assurance department participated in five workshops organized by external providers, addressing current topics relevant to the pharmaceutical industry.

    1. ‌Environmental Responsibility

      In 2025, Antibiotice S.A. conducted its activities in full compliance with the applicable legal requirements and regulations regarding environmental protection, continuing the implementation of the commitments assumed through its sustainability policy and integrated management system.

      During the reporting period, no complaints or notifications related to environmental protection issues were recorded.

In addition, the Annual Environmental Report for 2024 was prepared and published on the company's website, in accordance with the requirements of the Integrated Environmental Permit.

        Between 25 and 28 June 2025, Antibiotice S.A. organized the "Open Doors Day" event, an initiative aimed at facilitating open and constructive dialogue by offering members of the community the opportunity to become familiar with the company's activities and projects.

        Further details on how the interests of authorities, local communities and other relevant stakeholders are considered in establishing and implementing the pollution prevention and control policy are presented in the Sustainability Statement.

        Resource management and protection of environmental factors

        The periodic monitoring of environmental quality factors was carried out in accordance with the legal requirements and the provisions of the Integrated Environmental Permit. For this purpose, the company conducted water analyses both in its own laboratory and in third party laboratories to control the quality of the waters introduced into the pretreatment station, the wastewater discharged into the municipal sewerage system, as well as rainwater and drainage water discharged

        into the natural receiver. Measurements regarding air emissions were performed in accordance with the applicable legal provisions.

        During the reporting period, no exceedances of the permitted limit values were recorded. The monitoring activities implemented for the management of environmental factors are detailed in the Sustainability Statement.

        Sustainable waste management

        Antibiotice continues to implement an efficient and sustainable waste management system based on the principles of selective collection, recovery and traceability.

      • The internal audit regarding waste management for the year 2024 was completed within the established deadline.

      • Waste is collected separately and transferred to authorized operators for recovery or final disposal. Certain types of waste are treated through incineration in the company's own installation.

      • The Waste Prevention and Reduction Program was prepared and is available for consultation

        on the company's official website.

      • In April 2024, a second party audit was conducted at the service provider responsible for waste disposal through incineration, focusing on waste traceability and compliance with ISO 14001, ISO 9001, as well as with legal and contractual requirements. The audit was completed without identifying critical non-conformities that could generate risks for the activities of Antibiotice.

      • The obligations related to Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) were fulfilled through a contract with an authorized organization implementing Extended Producer Responsibility obligations (OIREP). The company has no outstanding liabilities towards the Environmental Fund Administration.

        Climate change and decarbonization

    2. Occupational Health and Safety

      In order to comply with the legal provisions regarding the protection of employees' health, in 2025 the following documents were prepared: the 2025 Prevention and Protection Plan (revised in accordance with the applicable legislation), the Annual Training and Testing Program / Topics for

      periodic training in the field of Occupational Health and Safety, the Annual Program for periodic medical examinations, and the Annual Program for monitoring exposure to occupational hazards.

      The technical measures included in the 2025 Prevention and Protection Plan were implemented and covered actions aimed at reducing physical effort, improving working conditions and ensuring compliance with legal requirements.

      Periodic staff training was carried out in accordance with the Annual Training and Testing Program in Occupational Health and Safety, on a monthly, quarterly or semi-annual basis, depending on the specific nature of each activity.

      During 2025, additional training activities were also conducted, including postgraduate courses for risk assessors (three persons from the Occupational Health and Safety Department), authorization courses for personnel responsible for technical equipment and installations in areas with explosive atmospheres (ten persons), professional training courses in occupational health and safety (thirty three persons), first aid training, as well as specific training sessions for certain professions or activities requiring authorization.

Following the audit, new certificates were issue.

  6. Operational performance

    In 2025, total reported revenues amounted to 687 million lei. During the first twelve months, the inflation rate exceeded 9%, according to public data, which was also reflected in purchasing power. As a result, the consumption of medicines was reprioritized within the consumer basket.

    Revenue from international sales amounted to 266.3 million RON, representing an increase of 5.2% compared to 2024:

    • Finished products and services totaled 171.32 million RON, an increase of 9.6% compared to 2024 (156.29 million RON).

    • Active substances totaled 94.95 million RON, a decrease of 2% compared to 2024 (96.94 million RON). The decrease is correlated with reduced demand following the impact of tariff policies announced by the United States of America.

    The company's strategy for the coming period focuses on rebalancing sales geographically through

    commercial policies developed with partners.

    1. Antibiotice in the Romanian market1

      During the analyzed period, the sales of Antibiotice Iași on the domestic market recorded an increase of 0.3%, supported by a rise in sales volumes of approximately 2%, compared to the same period of the previous year. This result is determined by a combination of external and internal factors that influenced commercial performance. The main drivers contributing to this outcome are detailed below:

      Unfavorable market conditions

      → The domestic pharmaceutical market recorded stagnation in key segments in which the company operates, including generic antibiotics, ointments and topical products.

      → In the context of economic uncertainty, visible changes in consumer behavior occurred, leading to a decline in demand for products from the company's portfolio. Many patients interrupted or postponed certain therapies, prioritizing urgent medical interventions. This cautious behavior translated into reduced adherence to preventive and maintenance therapies. In addition, consumers avoided purchasing over the counter products considered non-essential, preferring to tolerate minor symptoms rather than invest in preventive treatments.

      → A decrease in the incidence of certain conditions, including a reduction in respiratory infections as well as other pathologies treated with Antibiotice Iași medicines, resulted in lower than anticipated consumption levels.

      Legislative and economic pressures

      → The fiscal measures announced created a climate of uncertainty and caution, which influenced patients' consumption behavior. This was reflected in reduced traffic in pharmacies, a lower average receipt value, a smaller number of products per receipt, and a stronger focus on purchasing chronic treatments.

      → Rising inflation and declining purchasing power had a direct impact on the demand for medicines, particularly in the context of repeated price increases for certain pharmaceutical products, especially in the OTC segment. In addition, limitations in hospital budget allocations led to reduced purchases of medicines, including products from the Antibiotice Iași portfolio. This situation is further amplified by the underfunding of certain national programs (for example, the national tuberculosis program) and by the fact that procurement

      ‌1Data source: Cegedim Sell-Out Romania December 2025

      through tenders is carried out strictly within the limits of the budgets approved for each hospital.

      → Reimbursements from the National Health Insurance House (CNAS) to pharmacies were delayed, creating financial instability among pharmacies. This was also reflected in the lower volume of orders, significantly reduced compared to previous periods.

      → The increase in the VAT rate starting in August 2025 generated cascading effects across the entire value chain, from the manufacturer to the final patient.

      → Reduced household spending on health and the decline in real wages in Romania also contributed to the decrease in medicine consumption.

      Competitive factors

      → Increased competition in the domestic pharmaceutical market: Strong competition from other companies, particularly those offering generic medicines at lower prices, required greater commercial efforts to maintain and stabilize sales. An intensification of promotions and discounts among competitors was observed, especially in the generic segments in which the company operates, particularly within national pharmacy chains and regional mini chains.

      Despite the aspects mentioned above, in 2025, on the domestic market, Antibiotice:

      • maintained 4th place (out of a total of 379 companies) in terms of consumption measured in number of boxes on the segment of generic prescription and non-prescription medicines, with a 4.9% market share;

      • remained the value leader in the segment of generic prescription and non-prescription medicines sold in hospitals, with a 13.4% market share, in a market where 258 companies are active;

      • ranked 1st by volume (international units) in the total market for the pharmaceutical forms of ointments (19.8% of 133 companies), suppositories and ovules (32.6% of 56 companies), and injectable powders (59.9% of 60 companies);

      • ranked 1st by number of boxes sold in the total anti-infectives market, with a 20.8% market share, in a market where 73 companies operate.

    2. Antibiotice on the international market

      In 2025, revenues from the sales of finished products and active substances on the international market amounted to 266.3 million RON, representing an increase of 5.2% compared to 2024.

      The main markets where Antibiotice products were exported are Europe (43%), Asia Pacific (27%), the Americas (22%), and the Middle East and Africa (8%).

      With regard to the export of finished products, revenues increased by 10% compared to the previous year. Sales of finished products followed an upward trend across all international territories where these products are marketed, except for the United States, where sales were consolidated at the average level of the last five years.

      In 2025, medicines manufactured by Antibiotice reached 40 international territories, of which 28 are in Europe, which remains the company's main market. Sales growth of over 40% was generated both by markets where the company already has an established presence (the United Kingdom, the Nordic countries, the Netherlands, Hungary, Serbia and Moldova) and by new territories where projects have been initiated in the last two years (Germany, Italy, France, Poland, the Czech Republic and Bulgaria).

      Higher sales were also achieved in other territories where the company is present, including Vietnam, South Africa, the United Arab Emirates, Azerbaijan, Georgia and Ukraine. In the Middle East region, the company aims to expand its operational footprint into new territories such as Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Jordan and Kuwait.

      In 2025, new product registration procedures were initiated in several European countries, including Germany, Italy, Poland, Spain, the Netherlands, the Czech Republic and Slovakia, as well as in Saudi Arabia and Jordan. Sales in some of these territories are expected to begin in the second half of 2026, when the first registration procedures are anticipated to be completed.

      Also in 2025, the company began international sales of the VetAria+ brand, with the first markets accessed being Moldova, Turkey and Kuwait.

      Export of nystatin based active substances in non-micronized and micronized forms

      The activities carried out in 2025 followed the trend of recent years and aligned with the strategy to consolidate the company's global leadership position in the nystatin active substance market for the 2025-2030 period. The Antibiotice nystatin active substance portfolio was marketed across all major markets worldwide.

      The company maintained its presence in key markets, including Asia, Europe, North America and Latin America, while also making progress in development projects, thereby strengthening the foundation for the expansion of export markets for this range of active substances.

    3. Management of financial flows and operational expenditures
The year 2025 represented a phase of strategic consolidation, during which Antibiotice S.A. maintained operational stability, safeguarded jobs and continued investments in major projects, financed from external sources, aimed at infrastructure development and increasing international competitiveness.

In an economic context marked by uncertainty, cost pressures and intense competition, financial results recorded a decline compared to the previous year.

On the domestic market, changes in consumer behavior led to decreases in the over-the-counter medicines segment and oral anti-infectives, combined with efficiency and differentiation strategies adopted by major pharmacy chains.

At the international level, discussions regarding regional tariff changes and market volatility created additional challenges. The company adapted quickly by offsetting the decline in sales in the United States through strengthening its presence in Western Europe, at prices lower by 40 to 50 percent, while maintaining a stable trend in the active substances portfolio.

Overall, these factors led to a decrease in gross profit in 2025 compared to 2024, amounting to 43 million RON.

The net profit as at 31 December 2025 amounted to 51.8 million RON.

In 2025, total revenues amounted to 685.83 million RON, 1% lower compared to the level recorded in 2024 of 693 million RON.

The generation of revenues led to total expenses of 625.68 million RON, 6% higher compared to

589.87 million RON in 2024.

At the end of 2025, a gross profit of 60.15 million RON was recorded, with the company taking measures to efficiently manage costs in a challenging market context, partially mitigating the impact of declining revenues.

Within total revenues, operating revenues amounted to 669.27 million RON, 2% lower compared to

685.37 million RON in 2024.

Turnover

In 2025, the company recorded a turnover of 645.28 million RON, 29.7 million RON lower compared to 675.01 million RON in 2024. This result reflects:

→ turnover on the domestic market amounting to 379.02 million RON;

→ turnover on international markets amounting to 266.26 million RON.

Overall, the factors mentioned above led to a decrease in turnover, with the impact driven by:

→ 68% from the decline in sales on the US market;

→ 13% from the decrease in consumption of oral antibiotics;

→ 4% from the contraction in demand for food supplements based on plant extracts, subject to Law 81/2022.

In the context of Law 81 on the commercialization of food supplements, it is important to note that Antibiotice Iași operates within an extended compliance framework specific to pharmaceutical manufacturers, which entails strict limitations on offering certain benefits, incentives or commercial policies commonly used in the food supplements market. By comparison, other producers not subject to the same requirements may apply more flexible promotional mechanisms and commercial tools, with a direct impact on sales dynamics and market share. Consequently, this difference in commercial regime may influence the competitiveness of the supplements segment within the company's portfolio and should be analyzed in correlation with the evolution of revenues and margins for this category.

Within the turnover structure:

→ revenues from the sale of products through own channels represent 76%, amounting to 492.26 million RON, 7% lower compared to 530.47 million RON in 2024;

→ revenues from the sale of products through partner channels represent 23.4% of net turnover, amounting to 150.98 million RON, 5% higher compared to 143.65 million RON in 2024.

Other operating income

In 2025, other operating income amounted to 2.23 million RON and includes bonuses granted for local taxes and duties, income from investment subsidies recognized in line with asset depreciation, as well as income from the lapse of shareholders' rights to dividends related to the 2020 financial year, in accordance with legal provisions.

Revenue related to the cost of inventories of finished goods - The production and sales structure achieved in 2025 resulted in revenue related to the cost of inventories of finished goods (reflecting the production cost of stored products and their variation) amounting to 8.97 million RON, compared to -3.5 million RON in 2024.

Revenue from research and development projects - Investments in research and development amounted to 12.79 million RON, compared to 11.12 million RON in 2024. In 2025, research stages were carried out for a total of 54 projects, distributed across divisions as follows:

→ Topical Products Division, 28 projects;

→ Oral Solid Dosage Forms Division, 11 projects;

→ Sterile Injectable Products Division, 15 projects.

Cost structure

Within total expenses, operating expenses amounted to 598.24 million RON, higher compared to

577.98 million RON in 2024.

The production structure, adapted to demand on both domestic and international markets, led to raw materials and materials expenses of 152.11 million RON, 5% higher compared to 145.35 million RON in 2024. This increase was driven by additional production of active substances and injectable powders for export.

Expenses related to electricity, natural gas and potable water amounted to 21.97 million RON, above the level recorded in 2024. The variation was driven both by changes in consumption volumes (higher for electricity and natural gas and lower for potable and wastewater) and by higher prices compared to the previous year.

The operation of photovoltaic plants in 2025 generated savings of 15% in electricity consumption, amounting to 2 million RON.

Personnel expenses amounted to 176.21 million RON, 6.5% higher than in 2024, reflecting the full implementation of salary increases granted under the 2024 collective labor agreement.

Within operating expenses, other operating expenses are also included, as presented below:

    • promotion in media publications, such as brochures and magazines for the general public, as well as online;

    • market studies and marketing research;

    • medicine serialization services;

    • maintenance services for equipment and working spaces.

  • transport expenses amounted to 4.37 million RON, 3% lower compared to 2024. These costs relate to the delivery of finished products, free at destination, sold on both domestic and international markets. As a share of operating revenues, a decrease is observed in 2025;
  • insurance expenses amounted to 3.41 million RON, 7% lower compared to 2024. These include insurance premiums for commercial risk coverage, voluntary health insurance granted to employees based on performance criteria, employee accident insurance, mandatory third party liability and casco insurance for company vehicles, insurance of goods in transit, liability insurance for the consumption of Antibiotice S.A. products marketed in the US, and insurance of the 2.5 MW photovoltaic park. As a share of operating revenues, these expenses decreased by 0.03%;
  • maintenance and repair expenses amounted to 2.4 million RON, necessary to maintain production equipment in optimal condition, strengthen certain constructions, and ensure maintenance and repair of the vehicle fleet;
  • travel expenses amounted to 1.45 million RON, below the 2024 level of 1.71 million RON. These expenses are necessary for travel to authorities and business partners, both domestically and internationally, to strengthen existing partnerships and develop new ones, as well as for

    participation in pharmaceutical industry conferences, international events and professional training courses. In 2025, the share of these expenses in operating revenues is lower compared to 2024;

  • expenses related to green certificates and waste recycling amounted to 1.43 million RON, at a level comparable to 2024. The company applied the provisions of Emergency Ordinance no. 20/2025 regarding a state aid scheme granting exemptions for certain categories of final consumers from the application of Law no. 220/2008 on the promotion of energy production from renewable sources, resulting in a reduction of these expenses by 0.38 million RON in 2025;
  • representation expenses in territories amounted to 0.9 million RON, at a level comparable to 2024, incurred to support sales in international markets;
  • expenditure on vocational training amounted to 0.9 million RON, below the level recorded in

    the previous year, necessary for maintaining and improving employees' professional skills;

  • the variation in 2025 regarding adjustments for current assets amounted to -10 million RON, resulting from the recognition and reversal of adjustments for current assets, driven by the sale of finished goods inventories produced on own and partner sites, for which adjustments had previously been recorded.

In 2025, a negative financial result of 10.9 million RON was recorded, although it improved by 6.6 million RON compared to 2024. This unfavorable result is mainly due to high volatility in the foreign exchange market, the appreciation of the euro (by 1.34% compared to the previous year's average), given that the company holds loans denominated in this currency, and the appreciation of the Romanian leu against the US dollar, while the company holds receivables exceeding its liabilities in USD.

The current liquidity ratio, calculated as the ratio between current assets and short-term bank liabilities, stands at 5.03, above the level agreed with banking institutions of 1.2. This indicates the company's ability to meet its short-term banking obligations using current assets and to maintain short term financial balance. Compared to the end of 2024, the indicator decreased due to the increase in short term bank loans at a faster pace than the growth in current assets.

Total bank debt to EBITDA stands at 1.88, within the limits agreed with financial institutions (maximum accepted level of 3.5). The indicator is higher than the level recorded at 31 December 2024, as a result of increased borrowings used to finance investments.

The Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) indicator, which reflects profit before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, amounted to 124.03 million RON, representing a decrease of 19% compared to the end of 2024, when it stood at 152.45 million RON.

The ratio of total bank debt to equity stands at 0.25, within the limits agreed with financial institutions (maximum accepted level of 1). The increase compared to the end of 2024 is justified by the level of bank loans contracted in 2025.

The year 2025 was characterized by consolidation and financial discipline for Antibiotice S.A., with a focus on operational efficiency and sustainability, elements that support the company's ability to manage market volatility and create long term value.

During the reporting period, the company signed a financing agreement worth 75 million EUR with the Ministry of Investments and European Projects for the development of the project "INOVA a+ Research and Development Center and Critical Medicines Production", funded through the STEP Health Programme. The project aims to create a modern research and production infrastructure for critical medicines, strengthening the company's strategic positioning and contributing to the pharmaceutical autonomy of Romania and the European Union.

At the same time, investments supported through the InvestEU Programme contribute to the expansion of production capacities for sterile products, topical products and solutions, as well as to the development of logistics infrastructure, with the new storage facility authorized at the beginning of 2025.

The company's main priority in 2026 remains maintaining operational balance and financial stability, in an economic context characterized by persistent inflation and increased consumer caution, similar to 2025.
