Interim Management Report

We are pleased to present the Hemogenyx Pharmaceuticals half year report for
the period ended 30 June 2025. The first half of 2025 has been one of steady
and meaningful progress. Our principal focus remains the clinical development
of HG-CT-1, our fms-like tyrosine kinase 3 ("FLT3")-targeted autologous CAR-T
cell therapy for the treatment of relapsed or refractory acute myeloid
leukaemia ("R/R AML"). Alongside advancing this programme, we have recently
strengthened our operational and manufacturing foundations while reducing our
operating costs, secured grant and financing support, and positioned the
Company for potential early revenue generation under an innovative regulatory
framework.

Our mission remains clear: to develop and deliver transformative therapies for
patients with life-threatening blood cancers while creating sustainable value
for our shareholders.

Clinical developments

The Phase I clinical trial of HG-CT-1 in adult R/R AML patients has been our
principal focus. During the first half of the year we treated the second adult
patient and confirmed in June that both the first and second patients had
successfully passed their initial safety evaluations.

Since the close of the reporting period, we have continued to build momentum,
and with the third adult patient being treated in August, thereby completing
the first adult dose cohort. We reported that this patient had passed the
initial safety evaluation and, importantly, that early signs of clinical
efficacy were observed. Leukemic cells were no longer detectable by standard
assays, providing the first clear evidence that HG-CT-1 is beginning to
deliver therapeutic benefit.

These achievements reinforced the emerging safety profile of HG-CT-1 at the
opening dose level and provided the foundation for continued enrolment.

The safety data from the first three patients will now be submitted to the
independent Data Safety Monitoring Board ("DSMB"), which will determine
whether the trial can progress to the next dose level. Subject to DSMB
approval, we will proceed into dose escalation, a critical milestone in
defining both the safety and therapeutic potential of HG-CT-1.

During the reporting period we have also prepared to broaden the scope of the
trial. A paediatric protocol amendment was submitted in May, and in June
regulatory clearance was obtained to initiate a paediatric expansion of the
study. This development reflects our determination to address the particularly
acute unmet need in childhood AML.

Operational and manufacturing progress

Clinical progress must be matched by operational readiness. To that end, we
have entered into a strategic manufacturing partnership with Made Scientific,
a US-based contract development and manufacturing organisation, to support
technology transfer and scale-up of HG-CT-1 production. This partnership
enhances both our capacity and resilience in manufacturing.

During the reporting period we also secured a US$120,000 G-Rex® grant to
optimise and scale CAR-T production, supporting efficiency and
cost-effectiveness as the programme expands.

These steps are designed to ensure that Hemogenyx Pharmaceuticals can meet the
growing demands of its clinical trial and be well prepared for potential
commercialisation.

Potential revenue opportunity

A significant post-period corporate development has been the signing of a
letter of intent ("LOI") with Cellin Technologies OÜ ("Cellin"), a leading
Estonian cell therapy company. This agreement contemplates the
commercialisation of HG-CT-1 under Estonia's recently amended hospital
exemption pathway for advanced therapy medicinal products.

The pathway permits the clinical use of certain advanced therapy medicinal
products that have not yet received full marketing authorisation, provided
that they are manufactured for and administered within a hospital setting.
This collaboration with Cellin represents Hemogenyx Pharmaceutical's first
potential near-term revenue opportunity for HG-CT-1, while also offering the
prospect of gathering valuable real-world patient data alongside our ongoing
clinical trial.

The Board views this agreement as an important strategic complement to our
Phase I programme; it provides a pathway to early commercial uptake in Europe,
strengthens international partnerships, and demonstrates the versatility of
HG-CT-1 as both a clinical and potentially commercial asset.

Financial Results

During the six months ended 30 June 2025, the Group recorded a loss before
taxation of £5,006,415 (2024: £2,815,604 loss), including operating costs of
£4,819,980 (2024: £2,691,140). For further comparison, the operating costs
for the twelve months to 31 December 2024 were £6,465,846. The increase in
costs for the period ended 30 June 2025 compared to the same period in 2024 is
primarily due to an unfavourable movement in the UK sterling and US dollar
exchange rate, which accounted for a variance of approximately £2,241,905.
Research and development expenditure was broadly consistent year-on-year, with
continued investment in the Phase I clinical trial of HEMO-CAR-T and related
development activities.

The outsourcing of manufacture is now more economical than in-house
manufacturing and the steps we have taken are now having a significant impact
on our operating costs.

The Company had cash and cash equivalents totalling £226,727 as of 30 June
2025.

The Company raised £2.24 million (before expenses) during H1 and has raised a
further £2.2 million post period end.

Path forward

Our priorities for the remainder of 2025 are clear:

1.   DSMB review and dose escalation; submit the combined data from the
first three patients to the DSMB and, subject to its approval, advance into
the next dose cohort.

 

2.   Paediatric expansion; operationalise the regulatory clearance to
initiate enrolment of paediatric patients with AML.

 

3.   Manufacturing scale-up; progress technology transfer with Made
Scientific and deploy the G-Rex® grant to strengthen manufacturing efficiency
and scalability.

 

4.   Revenue optionality; finalise discussions with Cellin to define and
implement a framework for HG-CT-1 supply under the Estonian hospital exemption
pathway, balancing patient access with early revenue generation.

 

5.   Financial discipline; continue to manage resources prudently, aligning
financing decisions with clinical and corporate milestones.

Conclusion

The first half of 2025 has confirmed both the safety and the promise of
HG-CT-1. The successful treatment of three adult patients at the lowest dose
level, together with the first signals of clinical efficacy, mark a pivotal
stage in the Company's development. With DSMB review and dose escalation
moving ahead, and with preparations for paediatric expansion under way, the
clinical pathway is well defined.

At the same time, the Company has built resilience through strengthened
manufacturing partnerships, secured targeted grant support, and taken a
pragmatic approach to financing. Importantly, the LOI with Cellin opens the
possibility of early revenue generation in Europe, alongside the collection of
meaningful patient data in a real-world setting.

We enter the second half of 2025 with momentum and with confidence. Our
mission remains to deliver life-changing therapies to patients with acute
unmet needs, while building long-term value for our shareholders.

On behalf of the Board, I wish to thank our staff, directors, collaborators,
and shareholders for their continued support.

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements

 

1.         General Information

 

The Group's business is preclinical-stage biotechnology focused on the
discovery, development and commercialisation of new medicines and treatments
to treat blood and autoimmune diseases as well as certain viral infections.
The products under development are designed to address a range of problems
that occur with the current standard of care treatments.

 

The Company's registered office is located at 6 Heddon Street, London, W1B
4BT, and the Company's shares are listed on the main market of the London
Stock Exchange.

 

2.         Interim financial information

 

The condensed consolidated interim financial statements are for the six-month
period ended 30 June 2025. The condensed consolidated interim financial
statements do not include all the information required for full annual
financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated
financial statements of the Group for the year ended 31 December 2024, which
were prepared under International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS).

 

The condensed consolidated interim financial statements have not been audited,
nor have they been reviewed by the Group's auditors under ISRE 2410 of the
Auditing Practices Board. These condensed consolidated interim financial
statements do not constitute statutory accounts as defined in Section 434 of
the Companies Act 2006. The Group's statutory financial statements for the
year ended 31 December 2024 prepared under IFRS have been filed with the
Registrar of Companies. The auditor's report on those financial statements was
unqualified and did not contain a statement under Section 498(2) of the
Companies Act 2006.

 

3.         Basis of preparation and changes to the Group's Accounting Policies

 

The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of these
consolidated interim condensed financial statements are set out below. These
policies have been consistently applied to all the periods presented, unless
otherwise stated.

 

Basis of Preparation

 

The condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with IAS 34 'Interim Financial Reporting'. The accounting policies
adopted in this report are consistent with those of the annual financial
statements for the year to 31 December 2024 as described in those financial
statements. Several new or amended standards became applicable for the current
reporting period, but they did not have any impact on the group's accounting
policies and did not require retrospective adjustments.

 

Going Concern

 

The preparation of interim financial statements requires an assessment on the
validity of the going concern assumption.

 

During the period to 30 June 2025, the Company raised additional funds through
a series of equity financings, including the allotment of new ordinary shares
and the issuance of convertible loan notes and warrants, providing gross
proceeds of approximately £2,236,700. The proceeds raised were used to enable
the Company to progress towards the testing of HEMO-CAR-T in patients in Phase
I clinical trials and to provide continuing working capital for the Company's
operations. A small portion of the funds were used for the development of the
Company's other product candidates, including the necessary maintenance and
prosecution of the Company's patent applications.

 

Despite raising further funding of £2,215,799 post period end, the Directors
expect that the Group will have a funding shortfall to enable it to complete
its Phase I trials of HEMO-CAR-T and will require additional working capital
within the next 12 months in order to be able to continue its product
development activities, focusing on HEMO-CAR-T. There can be no assurance that
either the funding shortfall will be addressed in whole or in part, neither is
there an assurance that the Group will have access to any financing on terms
which are acceptable, or at all, in which case the Group's product development
activities would have to cease and the Company would no longer be adequately
capitalised. In those circumstances the Directors would have to consider an
orderly wind down of the Company which may include, in the absence of any
other alternative, a liquidation of the Company.

 

To the extent that the Company raises additional funds by issuing equity
securities, the Company's shareholders may experience dilution. Any debt
financing, if available, may involve restrictive covenants.

 

At present, and as mentioned above, the Company has insufficient working
capital for its foreseeable requirements over the 12 months from the date of
these interim results. However, the Directors believe that the Company will be
able to access additional financing. The Directors, therefore, have made an
informed judgment, at the time of approving these financial statements that
the Company will be able to raise sufficient funds to continue in operation
for the foreseeable future. As a result, the Directors have continued to adopt
the going concern basis of accounting in preparing these interim financial
statements.

 

Segmental Reporting

 

The Group's operations are located in New York, USA, the parent company is a
public company which is administered in the United Kingdom. The main assets of
the Group, cash and cash equivalents, are held primarily in the United Kingdom
and the United States, while the fixed assets and right of use assets are held
in the United States. The Board ensures that adequate amounts are transferred
internally to allow all companies to carry out their operations on a timely
basis.

 

The Group currently has one reportable segment: a biotechnology business
focused on the discovery, development and commercialisation of blood diseases
such as AML and autoimmune diseases, and certain viral infections.

 

 

Accounting Policies

 

The accounting policies, presentation and methods of computation applied by
the Group in these condensed interim financial statements are the same as
those applied by the Group in its consolidated financial information in its
2024 Annual Report and Accounts, with the exception of the following policies;

 

Equity instruments

Share warrants issued to third parties for their participation in equity
fundraises meet the equity classification under IAS 32. Such warrants are
recognised within equity together with the related share proceeds, and are not
subsequently remeasured.

 

Derivative financial instruments

Derivatives embedded in hybrid contracts with hosts that are not financial
assets within the scope of IFRS 9 (e.g. financial liabilities) are treated as
separate derivatives when they meet the definition of a derivative, their
risks and characteristics are not closely related to those of the host
contracts and the host contracts are not measured at FVTPL. If the hybrid
contract is a quoted financial liability, instead of separating the embedded
derivative, the Company generally designates the whole hybrid contract at
FVTPL.

New and amended accounting standards and interpretations

 

The new standards, described below, will be adopted by the Group when
effective, and have had no impact on these half yearly results.

 

On 12 February 2021 the IASB issued an amendment to IAS 1 concerning
accounting policy disclosures, and an amendment to IAS 8 concerning the
definition of accounting estimates. On 7 May 2021 the IASB issued an amendment
to IAS 12 concerning deferred tax related to assets and liabilities arising
from a single transaction. The Company does not expect a material impact from
the application of these two amendments, which are effective for annual
reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2024. The Company adopted
these amendments as required, and the impact was not material.

 

4.         Significant accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions

 

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with International
Financial Reporting Standards requires the use of certain critical accounting
estimates. It also requires management to exercise its judgement in the
process of applying the Company's accounting policies. Actual results may
differ from these estimates.

 

In preparing these condensed interim financial statements, the significant
judgements made by management in applying the Group's accounting policies and
the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those applied to
the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2024,
with the exception of the following;

 

(a)  Valuation of derivative liabilities

 

In May and June 2025 the Company issued a combined total of 500,000 warrants
to an investor as part of a fundraise exercise. The warrants are exercisable
for a period of 36 months (the "Exercise Period") were issued with an exercise
price of £2.70 (the "Exercise Price") which is subject to adjustment in
certain circumstances, including a reset of the Exercise Price if the Company
completes a share issuance (or other transaction granting rights to subscribe
for equity securities) during the Exercise Period at a price lower than the
Exercise Price.

 

The method of exercise has been deemed to contain derivative elements due to
the adjustment feature. As such the directors have designated warrants on
inception as a derivative instrument that is fair valued through profit or
loss.

 

The fair value of the warrants at inception and as at the reporting date of 30
June 2025 have been established using the Monte Carlo valuation method.

 

5.         Earnings per share

 

Basic and fully diluted earnings per share are calculated by dividing the loss
for the        six months from continuing operations of £2,949,309
(six months to 30 June 2024: £2,918,086 loss) attributable to equity owners
of the Group by the weighted average number of ordinary shares in issue during
those periods of 3,535,918 and 3,067,252 respectively.

 

Diluted loss per Ordinary Share equals basic loss per Ordinary Share as, due
to the losses incurred in the six months to 30 June 2025 and six months to 30
June 2024, there is no dilutive effect from the subsisting share options and
warrants.

 

On 9 December 2024 the Company undertook a capital restructure. As such, the
weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding as at 30 June 2024 has
been adjusted for the proportionate change in the number of ordinary shares
outstanding as if the event had occurred at the beginning of the earliest
period presented.

 

6.         Property, Plant and Equipment

 

During the six months ended 30 June 2025, the Group acquired assets with a
cost of £3,921 (six months ended 30 June 2024: £nil) and incurred
depreciation expense of £113,869 (six months ended 30 June 2024: £116,804).

During the six months ended 30 June 2025, the Company issued 994,000 new
ordinary shares through subscription agreements and a further 95,000 ordinary
shares upon the automatic conversion of convertible loan notes. In connection
with these financings, the Company also issued warrants (see Note 9).

 

8.         Derivative financial instruments

 

During the six months ended 30 June 2025, the Company issued warrants in
connection with equity placings completed in May and June 2025. These warrants
include reset features that preclude equity classification under IAS 32 and
have therefore been recognised as derivative financial instruments at fair
value through profit or loss.
