Event to Focus on the Status of the Acquisition, Plans Post-Acquisition for Evofem, and Q&A

MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--October 21, 2024-- 

Aditxt, Inc. ("Aditxt" or the "Company") $(ADTX)$, a social innovation platform dedicated to accelerating promising health innovations, today announced a virtual fireside chat set for October 28, 2024, at 11:30 AM Eastern Time. The event will be hosted by Amro Albanna, Co-Founder and CEO of Aditxt, featuring Saundra Pelletier, CEO of Evofem Biosciences, Inc. ("Evofem") (OTCQB: EVFM), and will be moderated by renowned physician and television personality Dr. Drew Pinsky.

This virtual fireside chat aims to provide an update on Aditxt's acquisition of Evofem, outline post-acquisition plans, and discuss why Aditxt's approach to accelerating innovations enables its programs to meet unmet health needs. During the session, Albanna and Pelletier will explore the potential to enhance the strategic vision for Evofem post-acquisition and how Aditxt's support strategic, operational, and financial contributions, which seek to put Evofem in a position to achieve its goals.

Under Pelletier's leadership, Evofem is at the forefront of addressing these issues by advancing pioneering solutions like Phexxi$(R)$ (lactic acid, citric acid and potassium bitartrate) --the only FDA-approved, hormone-free, on-demand contraceptive vaginal gel. The fireside chat will highlight the support of the Aditxt platform and Evofem's evolution into a multi-product women's health franchise focusing on prevention, treatment, and monitoring. A key milestone in this journey has been Evofem's acquisition of the global rights to Solosec(R) (secnidazole), an FDA-approved medication for treating trichomoniasis and bacterial vaginosis. The Evofem commercial team is preparing for the U.S. market re-launch of Solosec(R), seeking to position it as a cornerstone in its treatment portfolio.

Additionally, the collaboration between Aditxt's subsidiary, Pearsanta, Inc. ("Pearsanta") and Evofem to launch the Mitomic Endometriosis Test (MET$(TM)$) would be a significant step in establishing Evofem's diagnostic and monitoring capabilities. Targeting a U.S. launch in mid-2025, this non-invasive test utilizes cutting-edge biomarkers and has the potential to transform the management of endometriosis. With an estimated one in ten women globally affected by endometriosis, MET(TM) introduces a potentially ground-breaking approach to non-invasive diagnostics by leveraging a specific deletion in mitochondrial DNA for detection. This innovative method could potentially represent a significant advancement in tackling one of the most prevalent and often overlooked challenges in women's health, with the goal of setting a new standard for care and potentially improving the quality of life for millions of women.

Building on its current momentum, Evofem is seeking to advance the rollout of next-generation products, each carefully designed to close the existing gaps in women's health care and improve outcomes across diverse life stages.

Participants are encouraged to engage directly with our panel by submitting questions via text or video by October 25, 2024, at 5:00 PM ET to engagement@aditxt.com. Registration details are available here.

The Company estimates it will require approximately $19.3 million in cash to fund its proposed acquisition of Evofem, inclusive of the $1.8 million cash consideration for the merger and Aditxt's obligation to purchase an additional $2.28 million in Evofem Series F-1 Convertible Preferred Stock by October 31, 2024. An additional $15.2 million is required to satisfy Evofem's Senior Secured Note in conjunction with the closing.
