Summary Financial Results

• Effective 1 July 2023, former segment, Research, is now part of the Clinical Trials segment. Prior year revenue and profit/(loss) information for
  Research has been included within Clinical Trials for comparison.

Welcome to the 2024 Annual Report

Dear shareholder,

In February 2024, Cogstate celebrated 20 years on the Australian Stock Exchange.

In February 2004, in what were very different times, Cogstate raised A$7 million via its initial public offering and joined the ASX with a market cap of less than A$20 million. Back then, the small Cogstate team was solely

focused on creating and validating digital assessments of brain health. We were keenly aware of an aging population who were becoming more aware of brain health, and we were confident that access to measurement tools was going to be key to better brain health in the future. That is as

true today as it was 20 years ago.

In other ways, Cogstate now bears little resemblance to the company that

first presented itself to public company investors:

• Today, Cogstate is a trusted partner to global pharmaceutical companies, who rely on both our technology and our expertise to manage the primary endpoints for their pivotal trials of potential therapies. We are proud of the strong relationships that we have built with global leaders in neuroscience research, such as Eli Lilly & Co. (Lilly) and Eisai Co., Ltd (Eisai).
• Cogstate is now a team of more than 160 full time staff in Australia, the USA, UK and Japan, growing from what was just a handful of people in Melbourne two decades ago, and is now enhanced by a collection of more than 250 consulting neuropsychologists around the world.

• The digital assessments we offer our customers have developed in line with technological advancement over the last 20 years, but they continue to be based on excellent science and peer reviewed validation.
• The services we provide to our pharmaceutical customers have grown. Cogstate now offers a full suite of cognitive measurement services, reflecting both the changes in the conduct of global clinical trials, as well as the best-of-breed scientific and operational expertise that helps us to improve the signal- to-noise ratio for customers running complex trials in central nervous system diseases.

Cogstate is now a trusted partner to pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies developing prospective treatments for a range of different diseases, predominantly diseases of the central nervous system. This work in clinical trials represents more than 90% of our revenue base.

A key metric in terms of the success of Cogstate's clinical trials business has always been the value of sales contracts executed in any given period. Throughout

the 2023 and 2024 financial years,

the value of clinical trials sales contracts has fallen from the

heights set in the 2022 financial

year, predominantly reflecting a decrease in the value of new

contracts from phase 3 Alzheimer's

disease trials. However, this data only tells part of the story.

Cogstate's strategy is to follow therapies through the various stages of development. The

development of an Alzheimer's

treatment can be worth up to

US$80 million to Cogstate in

contracted revenue over the entire life of the development program,

from phase 1 to phase 3. Further,

we understand the significant cost

of running a phase 3 Alzheimer's

trial, which is why it is usually only the large pharmaceutical companies who can afford to run

such trials. For Cogstate, future

growth is dependent upon securing

early stage (phase 1 and phase

1. Alzheimer's trials from large pharmaceutical companies and then following that work through the stages of development.

During FY24, Cogstate established the basis for growth in Alzheimer's disease sales contracts for future periods.

Over the last year, we have been able to significantly expand the customer base for Cogstate's

offering in Alzheimer's disease

trials, specifically with large pharmaceutical companies:

• Phase 2 Alzheimer's trials provide the basis for future growth. During FY24, Cogstate executed four contracts for phase 2 Alzheimer's trials with four different large pharmaceutical companies
  (three of those companies are new Alzheimer's customers for Cogstate).
• Phase 3 Alzheimer's trial provides more immediate upside. In the June 2024 quarter, Cogstate executed a start-up agreement for a phase 3 Alzheimer's trial, again with a large pharmaceutical company. A start-up agreement is generally of low value but allows Cogstate to begin work on an upcoming trial prior to the execution of the main contract. In in the first few weeks of FY25, Cogstate executed the main contract in respect of the phase 3 trial.

Cogstate has also demonstrated growth in our clinical trials offering,

beyond Alzheimer's disease:

• Sleep disorders. Another area of near-term growth for Cogstate is sleep disorder trials where drug candidates act on the neuropeptide Orexin to modulate arousal and other functions. We are engaged in multiple late-stage program initiations planned in multiple indications, including trials planned whereby a Cogstate digital test will be included
  as a key endpoint based on strong phase II data using that same test. In this area we have invested in unique, fit-for- purpose solutions to enhance usability and acceptability
  by individuals with sleep disorders and enhanced real time data quality monitoring leveraging our data lake and data analytics capabilities.
• Mood disorders. The area of mood disorders includes indications such as major depressive disorder, bipolar and anxiety. There are a number of exciting new targets and mechanisms including the area of psychedelics where we're seeing an increase
  in pipeline opportunities as these programs move into later phases. During FY24,
  Cogstate invested in the development of new materials that have strengthened our competitiveness in these programs. We have also expanded our network
  of consultants to include individuals with expertise supporting these trials.
• Rare diseases. Cogstate is working extensively in phase 2 Rare disease trials
  - specifically rare genetic neurodevelopmental disorders.
  We expect phase 3 trial starts for multiple customers through
  FY25 and FY26.

Of course, Cogstate has always had an eye to opportunities beyond clinical trials. When founding

the company in 1999, our initial investment thesis was that digital assessments of cognition would play a critical role in providing simple, accurate, and actionable

data on which patients and doctors alike could understand brain health.

In 2020, Cogstate partnered with

Eisai to take Cogstate digital assessments into the community. The Eisai agreement provided Cogstate with a valuable inflow of

capital with a US$15 million upfront

payment received in December

2020. The agreement also

provided Cogstate shareholders with certainty of ongoing license

fees over the next 10 years, with

upside beyond those contracted minimum fees.

Since then, we have seen

successful phase 3 trials of

monoclonal antibodies, developed by both Eisai and Lilly, that have demonstrated the ability to alter the trajectory of decline of patients

with early Alzheimer's disease.

Eisai's Leqembi has now launched in a number of countries, including the USA, Japan, and China.

Lilly's Kisunla (donanemab) was approved by the FDA in early July

and has since launched in the USA.

The launch of disease modifying therapies, and the complexities of the diagnostic and prescription

process (particularly in the USA)

for the monoclonal antibodies as a

class of drugs in early Alzheimer's

disease, has highlighted the lack of preparedness of healthcare systems around the world to identify patients who would most benefit from these new treatments.

The Cogstate team, in conjunction with consultancy firms with expertise in the space, have undertaken focus group work in the community and established that there is demand for easy

to use, low cost, accurate tests of cognition. Similarly, we have worked to understand the role of primary care physicians in the diagnostic pathway, and the lack of connection between those family doctors and the specialists who

are prescribing new Alzheimer's

therapies.

The Cogstate team have established clear opportunities where Cogstate technology and expertise can be applied to solve some of these identified problems in healthcare systems.

In April of this year, we announced that we had amended the Global License Agreement with Eisai to allow Cogstate to continue to work in concert with Eisai, but also to explore an extended role that Cogstate can potentially play in building an integrated system to allow Alzheimer's patients access to the right intervention at the right time.

Under the amended agreement, Eisai holds a non-exclusive license for Cognigram in the USA and CogMate in certain Asian countries until August 2031. The non- exclusive license is a substantial reduction in Eisai rights compared to the global exclusive license held by Eisai prior to the amendment. In exchange for Eisai's reduced rights, Cogstate has agreed to forgo US$15 million of future royalties, mainly impacting financial years 2028 through to 2031.

Over the next year, Cogstate will continue to progress exploratory plans regarding alternative distribution approaches for our digital cognitive assessment technologies. These approaches will be complimentary to the direct-to-primary care avenue Eisai will pursue in the USA, and include exploration of the following opportunities:

• Consumer health tracking behaviours, and assessing how purpose-designed consumer cognitive measurement may fit into these existing habits;
• Assessing non-traditional healthcare delivery models, and how related patient behaviours predict interest in cognitive health tracking;
• Community-basedpartnerships that bring cognitive measurement into the physical and online places where likely users come together; and

• Partnerships that can scale remote delivery of cognitive tests (including leveraging existing, proven capabilities and relationships in clinical trials) to condense the timeline for medical diagnosis and treatment.

Financial results

Revenue for FY24 was up 7% to $43.4 million, while profit before tax increased 135% to $7.1 million--that is, a $2.9 million increase in revenue delivered a $4.1 million increase in profit. The Cogstate team, conscious of the uncertainty of timing of execution of large sales contracts, focused on delivering revenue from ongoing programs along with tight cost management to deliver profit growth.

Cogstate finished the year with $29.4 million of net cash and no debt.

Clinical Trials sales contracts executed throughout FY24 totaled $27m, down from $34m in the prior year. As mentioned above, the raw numbers do not tell the whole story as the sales contracts executed in FY24 provide substantial upside in FY25 and beyond.

At 30 June 2024, Cogstate had $101.6 million of contracted revenue that will be recognised in future periods.

Thanks to our talented team

Throughout the year, we have seen and benefited from the personal growth of various team members. Specifically, Rachel Colite, in the role of Executive Vice President, Clinical Trials, has demonstrated a keen understanding of the business and an ability to lead

a large group. Similarly, Dr. Pam Ventola has been promoted into the role of Chief Science Officer at Cogstate in recent months, handling her change in responsibility with ease whilst bringing significant energy and appetite for change to the role.

The whole team continues to focus on the dual goals of delivering for our customers while also seeking to advance our offering with improved technology solutions. They are dedicated to Cogstate's mission and values and, as shareholders, you should be proud of the quality of their work and the high esteem in which they are held within the industry.

Thanks to our unwavering supporters

On behalf of the Board and everyone at Cogstate, we also want to thank our shareholders for your continued support.

We are acutely aware of the desire of our shareholder base to see Cogstate return to the growth profile that we demonstrated in FY20 and FY21 and, as stated, we believe that we have a book of work that can deliver growth in the coming periods.

The launch of disease modifying therapies for treatment of early Alzheimer's disease represents significant opportunity for Cogstate. We are committed to exploring the extended role Cogstate can potentially play in building an integrated system to allow Alzheimer's patients access to the right intervention at the right time.

We remain eager to deliver against our long-term growth strategies that we believe will deliver long- term shareholder value. Our shared commitment will undoubtably shape a brighter future for our organisation and the global communities of researchers and patients we serve.

CUSTOMER STORY

FDA Approval for New Alzheimer's Disease Therapeutic Supported by Cogstate

Cogstate managed the endpoint data quality program of all cognitive and clinical outcomes in a global phase 3 trial of an amyloid-lowering drug for patients with early Alzheimer's disease. To ensure high fidelity measures, the large global trial required

a rigorous rater qualification and training program enhanced by central review of ratings by Cogstate's global network of expert neuropsychologist consultants and senior scientists. The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved the launch of the treatment for marketing.

Directors' Report

Your directors present their report together with the financial report of the consolidated entity, consisting of Cogstate Limited and the entities it controlled ("the Group" or "Cogstate"), for the financial year ended 30 June 2024 and the auditor's report thereon.

Cognigram is a Class ll exempt FDA listed digital medical device that can be marketed in the USA and is designed to be utilised by healthcare professionals.

CogMate is a direct-to-consumer product, with limited feedback provided to the individual patient. CogMate is not considered to be a "medical device" and therefore does not require regulatory approval.

DIRECTORS' REPORT

The Amended Global License Agreement will allow Cogstate to continue to work in concert with Eisai, but also to explore an extended role that Cogstate can potentially play in building an integrated system to allow Alzheimer's patients access to the right intervention at the right time.

Principal activities

During the year, the principal activities of the Group consisted of:

• Creation, validation and commercialisation of digital brain health assessments; and
• Design and provision of quality assurance services in clinical trials, focused on the administration, scoring and recording of conventional brain health assessments.

Cogstate solutions are widely used in hundreds of academic and industry sponsored research

studies. As at 30 June 2024,

Cogstate technology had been deployed in more than:

• 1,800 academic research studies
• 578 industry sponsored clinical trials

Business Strategies and Prospects

Cogstate was formed in December 1999 with a business thesis centered around the role of digital brain health assessments in an aging society with an increasing awareness of brain health.

Over time, Cogstate's business has evolved and expanded.

Creation and Scientific

Validation of Digital Brain Health

Assessments

Cogstate was founded as a disruptive solution that sought to leverage technology to simplify the

measurement of cognition (brain health) in order to make cognitive

assessment more accessible to the community.

Once the initial versions of the technology had been created, focus quickly turned to scientific validation of the technology; proving equivalence and/or superiority to standard measures of cognition such as a neurological exam conducted by specialist physicians. Today, Cogstate technology is scientifically proven, with support provided in the

form of over 625 peer reviewed

publications across a wide range of indications and drug classes.

The Role of Academic

Collaboration in Scientific

Validation

Since the development of the first version of its technology, Cogstate has sought to collaborate with academics the world over. As part of these collaborations, Cogstate provides technology at little or no cost to academics, but in return is granted access to data that can be used for validation or marketing.

Launch of Clinical Trials Offering

Leveraging the validation obtained through academic collaborations,

in 2004 Cogstate executed its

first commercial agreement with

Pfizer to support a clinical trial.

Since that time, Cogstate has gained extensive experience in the conduct of clinical trials across a range of different indications. Cogstate has collaborated

with more than 140 different

customers, in the support of more

than 570 clinical trials, in more than 110 languages, involving 13,700 clinical trial sites where

Cogstate has trained more than

24,000 site staff in respect of the

neuropsychological assessments deployed in the trial.

Extending Cogstate's Total Addressable Market to Include Consumers and Physicians

In 2017, Cogstate's Cognigram

product received clearance as

a HIPAA compliant U.S. FDA Class II Medical Device, which

subsequently received marketing authorisation in multiple additional regulatory jurisdictions around

the world. Then in 2020, Cogstate

and pharmaceutical company

Eisai Co., Ltd (Eisai) established a

global partnership to develop and commercialise such digital brain performance assessment tools for individuals and doctors. Eisai chose to partner with Cogstate as a result of our significant scientific and commercial validation.

During the 2024 financial year,

Cogstate and Eisai renegotiated the global license agreement. Under the Amended Global License Agreement, Eisai will hold a non- exclusive license to distribute specified Cogstate products in the following countries:

• Cognigram in the USA, including a shorter, memory only, version that has been developed in conjunction with Eisai; and
• CogMate in Taiwan, South
  Korea, Thailand, India,
  Malaysia, Philippines and Vietnam.

Both Cognigram and CogMate utilise the Cogstate Brief Battery, a collection of four cognitive tests that have been scientifically validated as sensitive to changes in cognition associated with early stages of Mild Cognitive

Impairment (MCI) and early Alzheimer's disease.

Clinical Trials Segment

Over the last 19 years, almost all Cogstate revenue has been generated from the sale of technology and associated services to pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies to demonstrate a drug's impact on cognition

in clinical trials. Initially, revenue was derived

only from the provision of highly sensitive computerised cognitive tests, as well as service fees associated with the deployment of the technology.

Over time, services were added in respect of the management, training and monitoring of conventional cognitive assessments to improve the reliability and sensitivity. Today, Cogstate's full-service solutions span the entire clinical trial lifecycle from study design to final statistical analysis. Recently expanded offerings include more flexible deployment models and modalities for computerised testing, as well

as more efficient and effective rater training and monitoring solutions to meet the quality assurance needs of clinical trials.

Growth strategies in Clinical Trials include:

• Leverage adoption of decentralised clinical trial methodologies to grow market share
• Expand capabilities in key therapeutic indications while continuing to grow market penetration in Alzheimer's disease in line with increased investment in drug development
• Establish and deepen channel partnerships with leading platform and service providers as a means of growing customer base
• Continue scientific publication and marketing of the utility and validity of Cogstate technology
• Leverage brand awareness generated from the launch of consumer and physician tools within the Healthcare market

Healthcare Segment

Outside of the Clinical Trials segment, Cogstate has developed tools specifically designed to aid healthcare professionals with objective assessments of cognition in patients. The system, branded as Cognigram™, allows for regular and standardised testing to assist in the early detection of cognitive decline that could be related to a range of factors including head injury, neurodegenerative disease or side effects following pharmacological treatments. There are additional applications in areas such as pre- and post-operativecare-especially critical in vulnerable or aging populations-to help ensure a full recovery and reduce rates of hospital re-admittance. Informative and automated reports allow clinicians to easily track a patient's cognitive change over time, compare results to age-matched normative data, and understand performance on both specific cognitive domains and composite scores.

Notwithstanding the list of applications above, the most significant opportunity for Cognigram is in the area of dementia screening and care. Cognigram has achieved regulatory clearance to be marketed in multiple jurisdictions including the United States, Europe and Australia.

DIRECTORS' REPORT

Review of Results and Operations

Clinical Trials Sales Contracts

The value of Clinical Trials sales contracts executed during FY24 was $27.0 million, a decrease of 21% compared to the prior year.

The decrease largely reflects a decrease in the value of sales contracts for trials of potential Alzheimer's therapies in FY24 ($12.9 million in FY24, down from $25.7 million in FY23 and $74.5 million in FY22). The value of sales contracts executed (excluding Alzheimer's trials) increased to $14.0 million in FY24, up from $8.7 million in FY23 and $8.0 million in FY22.

Clinical Trial Sales Contracts Executed

Clinical Trials Segment Result

Clinical Trials revenue increased to $39.4m in FY24, up 9% from the prior year, primarily as a result of the rectification of enrolment and regulatory delays associated with a number of trials in FY23, that impacted revenue in the prior year.

The segment contribution increased to $21.4m, up 22% from the prior year. This outcome was as a result of the increased revenue as well as slightly reduced staffing levels and tight cost management.

DIRECTORS' REPORT

Healthcare Segment Result

Revenue for the Healthcare segment is predominantly made up of revenue from the Eisai Global License Agreement. Revenue was lower than the prior year by 9% as a result of the amendment to the Eisai agreement in April of this year. The 8% reduction in segment contribution was as a direct result of this revenue reduction.

Group Contracted Future Revenue

Total contracted future revenue decreased by 23% to $101.6m as at 30 June 2024, compared to $132.6m at 30 June 2023. The contracted future revenue figure provides insight into future revenue performance of the Group.

The revenue backlog for both the Clinical Trials and Healthcare segments are highlighted in the table below:
