      backlog for Continuing Operations reached RMB59.88 billion as of 
      September 30, 2025, up 41.2% year-over-year. 
 
   -- Operating cash flow climbed 35.0% year-over-year to RMB10.87 billion, 
      driven by business growth, increase in operating efficiency, and 
      continued improvement of financial management capabilities. 
 
   -- Sustained and steady business growth as a result of our unique, fully 
      integrated Contract Research, Development and Manufacturing Organization 
      (CRDMO) platform. Driven by "follow the molecule" and "win the molecule" 
      strategies, WuXi Chemistry's small molecule CRDMO pipeline continues to 
      efficiently convert and capture high-quality molecules, delivering 
      sustained business growth. In the first three quarters of 2025, a total 
      of 621 new molecules were added to the small molecule Development and 
      Manufacturing (D&M) pipeline. As of September 30, 2025, our small 
      molecule D&M pipeline reached 3,430 molecules, representing an increase 
      of 15 projects in phase III and commercial stages during the first three 
      quarters of 2025. 
 
   -- Acceleration of global expansion, capacity construction and capability 
      development. In March 2025, both the Changzhou and Taixing API 
      manufacturing sites successfully passed FDA on-site inspections with no 
      single observation. By the end of 2025, total reactor volume of small 
      molecule APIs is expected to reach over 4,000kL. In September 2025, the 
      construction of peptide capacity in Taixing was completed ahead of 
      schedule; the Company's total reactor volume of Solid Phase Peptide 
      Synthesizers has been increased to more than 100,000L. 
 
   -- Robust shareholder returns. The Company remains committed to rewarding 
      shareholders and actively supporting the Company's value. This year, the 
      Company has implemented a total of RMB6.88 billion in cash dividends, 
      share repurchases and cancellations, representing more than 70% of the 
      Company's 2024 net profit attributable to the owners of the Company. 
      Among these, the Company has distributed a total of RMB4.88 billion in 
      cash dividends, including RMB2.83 billion for the 2024 annual cash 
      dividend, RMB1.01 billion for the 2025 special cash dividend and RMB1.03 
      billion for the 2025 interim dividend. Meanwhile, the Company also 
      completed the repurchase of RMB2.0 billion worth of A-shares in total, 
      all of which have been cancelled. 
 
([1]) As disclosed in 2025 Third Quarterly Report, Continuing Operations 
include WuXi Chemistry, WuXi Testing, WuXi Biology and Others, the scope of 
which may change following adjustments to the Company's business strategy. 
([2]) Net profit attributable to the owners of the Company is prepared in 
accordance with China Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises $(CAS)$. 
([3]) In 2024 Q1-Q3 and 2025 Q1-Q3, WuXi AppTec had a fully-diluted weighted 
average share count of 2,906,724,914 and 2,873,641,499 ordinary shares, 
respectively. 
 

2025 Full-Year Outlook

With confidence in customers' ongoing demand for enabling services, our CRDMO business model and management execution, the Company has further raised its full-year guidance.

The Company expects Continuing Operations revenue to resume double-digit growth in 2025, with its year-over-year growth rate raised to 17-18%, up from the prior 13-17%. As a result, the Company expects full-year total revenue of RMB43.5-44.0 billion, up from the prior RMB42.5-43.5 billion.

As it focuses on the core CRDMO business and continuously improved production and operating efficiency, the Company is confident and expects to further improve the adjusted non-IFRS net profit margin in 2025.

The Company is actively advancing global capacity construction; while due to longer-than-expected settlement cycles of certain projects, capex for 2025 is expected to reach RMB5.5-6.0 billion (adjusted from the prior RMB7.0-8.0 billion). Together with business growth, efficiency improvement, and considering the timing differences in project payments, free cash flow for 2025 is expected to increase from RMB5.0-6.0 billion to RMB8.0-8.5 billion.

Management Comment

Dr. Ge Li, Chairman and CEO of WuXi AppTec, said, "Reflecting robust customer demand and the strength of our unique CRDMO business model, WuXi AppTec delivered strong double-digit growth in revenue, profit and operating cash flow in the first three quarters of 2025, while our backlog for Continuing Operations reached a record RMB59.9 billion. Based on this momentum, we have further raised our full-year revenue and free cash flow guidance. The strategic divestment of clinical research services enables us to fully focus on our core CRDMO strategy and better meet the evolving needs of our customers. By concentrating on drug discovery, laboratory testing, process development, and manufacturing services, we are accelerating the growth of our global capabilities and capacities, delivering greater value for customers and shareholders, and advancing our vision that 'every drug can be made and every disease can be treated'."

             synthesized and delivered more than 430,000 new compounds to 
             customers. In the meantime, 250 molecules were converted from R to 
             D phase in the first three quarters of 2025. Through our 
             "follow-the-customer" and "follow-the-molecule" strategies, we 
             established trusted partnerships with our customers globally, 
             supporting the sustainable growth of our CRDMO business.

                    commercial projects, 87 in phase III, 374 in phase II and 
                    2,889 in phase I and pre-clinical stages. This represents 
                    an increase of 15 projects in the commercial and phase III 
                    stages during the first three quarters of 2025. 
 
                 2. We continued to build small molecule capacity. In March 
                    2025, both the Changzhou and Taixing API manufacturing 
                    sites successfully passed FDA on-site inspections with no

          -- Q1-Q3 revenue of lab testing services grew 2.7% year-over-year to 
             RMB2.96 billion. Due to market impact, its Q1-Q3 adjusted non-IFRS 
             gross profit margin declined as pricing was gradually reflected in 
             revenue along with backlog conversion. Of which, drug safety

          -- Q1-Q3 revenue for clinical CRO & SMO was down 6.4% year-over-year 
             to RMB1.21 billion due to market pricing impact; of which, SMO 
             revenue was down 0.7% year-over-year as backlog gradually 
             converted into revenue, while maintaining its industry leading 
             position in China. 
 
          -- During the first three quarters of 2025, our clinical CRO business 
             supported customers in obtaining 19 IND approvals and submitting 
             for 2 NDA filings; the SMO business supported 75 new drug

Neither of the above is required by, or presented in accordance with IFRSs.

We believe that the adjusted financial measures used in this presentation are useful for understanding and assessing our core business performance and operating trends, and we believe that management and investors may benefit from referring to these adjusted financial measures in assessing our financial performance by eliminating the impact of certain unusual, non-recurring, non-cash and non-operating items that we do not consider indicative of the performance of our core business.
