(NASDAQ: ORMP) (TASE: ORMP) (\"Oramed\"), a clinical-stage pharmaceutical company focused on the development of oral drug delivery platforms, today issued a letter to its shareholders from its President and Chief Executive Officer Nadav Kidron.\n\n\n\nDear Shareholders,\nI am happy to take this opportunity to provide our shareholders with an overview of our key accomplishments and outline our future direction. \nOramed-HTIT Joint Venture: OraTech - A Transformational Partnership\nWe are excited about our joint venture, OraTech Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (\"OraTech\"), which we believe represents a significant step forward in advancing our proprietary oral drug delivery technology. This company will serve as the foundation for developing, marketing, and commercializing innovative treatments leveraging Oramed's oral insulin and POD™ platform.\nThe collaboration combines Oramed's innovative drug delivery technology with Hefei Tianhui Biotech Co., Ltd's (\"HTIT\") state-of-the-art manufacturing capabilities, creating a powerful synergy that we believe positions OraTech as a true game-changer in the pharmaceutical industry. This integration of cutting-edge technology and advanced manufacturing expertise will enable us to ensure consistent, high-quality production at scale, setting new standards for oral protein delivery.\nOraTech is backed by a substantial capital and operational commitment. These resources are earmarked to support the initiation of a Phase 3 clinical trial in the U.S., a key milestone in bringing oral insulin to market. By leveraging insights from prior clinical studies, we have strategically designed this refined Phase 3 trial to focus on key patient subpopulations that we believe have the highest potential to demonstrate efficacy.\nIn parallel, HTIT has already submitted a Marketing Authorization Application to China's regulators for the oral insulin capsule in China. Commercialization preparations are underway, and OraTech is expected to receive royalties from sales in China.\nThe establishment of OraTech represents a unique opportunity to build a company focused on advancing next-generation therapies, unlocking new market potential.\nStock Dividend and Strategic Opportunities\nOraTech has initiated work on the Securities and Exchange Commission registration process with the goal of achieving Nasdaq trading status later this year. As part of this strategic initiative, Oramed plans to distribute OraTech stock to its shareholders via a dividend, granting them the majority of Oramed's ownership in OraTech. This distribution is expected to coincide with OraTech's public trading debut on Nasdaq.\nCash Dividend\nOramed is evaluating an opportunity to issue cash dividends of approximately $0.25 per share intended to help offset any potential tax liabilities associated with the OraTech stock distribution. Beyond mitigating potential tax concerns, this initiative underscores our commitment to maximizing shareholder value.\nStrategic Scilex Financing : Delivering Tangible Value\nOur investment in Scilex Holding Company (\"Scilex\") underscores our commitment to generating meaningful value through well-structured financial transactions. To date, we have received $70 million from our $99.5 million secured loan agreement, with additional payments of approximately $53 million expected over the  next two years.\nBeyond these direct financial returns, the transaction has provided us with 12.25 million shares of Scilex common stock, which will increase to 18.75 million shares this month as a result of warrant vesting. Additionally, we structured this deal to include meaningful upside through ongoing royalty streams from the following Scilex products:\n\nZTlido – A 4% royalty on sales worldwide for the next decade and a 25% profit share on the majority of sales outside the U.S., leveraging its U.S. Food and Drug Administration approval as a lidocaine topical system targeting the global pain patch market valued at $4.8 billion in 2021, and is projected to reach $7.3 billion by 2031. Oramed will receive $400,000 in royalties for Q4 2024 and expects this amount to increase on a quarterly basis. More details at www.ztlido.com.\n ELYXYB – The first ready-to-use oral solution for acute migraines, addressing a condition that affects approximately 39 million Americans. We hold a 2% royalty on worldwide sales. More details at www.elyxyb.com.\nGLOPERBA – An innovative oral liquid formulation for gout treatment, tapping into a market with strong growth potential. We hold a 2% royalty on worldwide sales and a 25% profit share on the majority of sales outside the U.S. More details at www.gloperba.com.\n\nStrong Balance Sheet: Positioned for Growth and Value Creation\nOramed maintains a robust financial position, strengthened by our strategic Scilex transaction and the OraTech joint venture. Our disciplined approach to cash management includes CDs, bonds, real estate and equities. We believe that our disciplined capital allocation strategy enables us to maintain sufficient liquidity for both our core operations and strategic initiatives, positioning Oramed for sustainable long-term growth.\nLooking Ahead: A Commitment to Strategic Growth\nLooking forward, we are actively pursuing acquisitions and partnerships that leverage our expertise in technology development and strategic dealmaking. We have identified several promising opportunities across multiple innovation ecosystems and expect to announce additional strategic initiatives in the coming quarters.\nSincerely,Nadav Kidron Chief Executive Officer\nForward-looking statements: This press release contains forward-looking statements, which may generally be identified by the use of the words \"anticipates,\" \"expects,\" \"intends,\" \"plans,\" \"should,\" \"could,\" \"would,\" \"may,\" \"will,\" \"believes,\" \"estimates,\" \"potential,\" \"target,\" or \"continue\" and variations or similar expressions and include statements that OraTech will serve as the foundation for developing, marketing, and commercializing innovative treatments leveraging Oramed's oral insulin and POD™ platform, that the initiation of a Phase 3 clinical trial in the U.S. will be a key milestone in bringing oral insulin to market, that OraTech is a true game-changer in the pharmaceutical industry, that integration of cutting-edge technology and advanced manufacturing expertise enables Oramed to ensure consistent, high-quality production at scale, setting new standards for oral protein delivery, expected royalties from sales in Greater China, unlocking new market potential, the process and timing for OraTech becoming a publicly traded company listed on Nasdaq, Oramed plans to distribute OraTech stock to its shareholders via a dividend, Oramed's ability to create shareholder value, including through well-structured financial transactions, expected royalty contributions from Scilex and expectations to announce additional strategic initiatives in the coming quarters.
