Announcement authorised by the Board of Actinogen Medical Limited
About Actinogen Medical
Actinogen Medical (ACW) is an ASX-listed, biotechnology company developing a novel therapy for neurological and
neuropsychiatric diseases associated with dysregulated brain cortisol. There is a strong association between cortisol and
detrimental changes in the brain, affecting cognitive function, harm to brain cells and long-term cognitive health.
Cognitive function means how a person understands, remembers and thinks clearly. Cognitive functions include memory,
attention, reasoning, awareness and decision-making.
Actinogen is currently developing its lead compound, Xanamem, as a promising new therapy for Alzheimer’s Disease. It
has also conducted a phase 2 trial in patients with cognitive impairment and depression and may study Fragile X Syndrome
and other neurological and psychiatric diseases in the future. Reducing cortisol inside brain cells could have a positive
impact in these and many other diseases. The cognitive dysfunction, behavioural abnormalities, and neuropsychological
burden associated with these conditions is debilitating for patients, and there is a substantial unmet medical need for new
and improved treatments.
Clinical Trials
The XanaMIA Phase 2b/3 Alzheimer’s disease trial is a double-blind, 36-week treatment, placebo-controlled, parallel
group design trial in 247 patients with mild to moderate AD and progressive disease, determined by clinical criteria and
confirmed by an elevated level of the pTau181 protein biomarker in blood. Patients receive Xanamem 10 mg or placebo,
once daily, and its ability to slow progression of Alzheimer’s disease is assessed with a variety of endpoints. The primary
endpoint of the trial is the internationally-recognized CDR-SB (Clinical Dementia Rating scale – Sum of Boxes). The trial
is being conducted in Australia and the US and is now closed to participant recruitment. It has passed an independent
Data Monitoring Committee safety and efficacy futility review and final topline results are expected in November 2026.

The XanaMIA-OLE Alzheimer’s disease open-label extension is an open-label phase of up to 25 months treatment
where all participants will receive active Xanamem 10 mg once daily. The trial evaluates safety and a limited number of
efficacy endpoints such as the CDR-SB. The trial commenced in March 2026 and is open to all former and current
participants in the XanaMIA Phase 2b/3 trial.
The XanaCIDD Phase 2a depression trial was a double-blind, six-week proof-of-concept, placebo-controlled, parallel
group design trial in 167 patients with moderate, treatment-resistant depression and a degree of baseline cognitive
impairment. Participants were evenly randomized to receive Xanamem 10 mg once daily or placebo, in most cases in
addition to their existing antidepressant therapy, and effects on cognition and depression were assessed. Trial results were
reported in August 2024 and showed clinically and statistically significant benefits on depression symptoms with positive
effects on the MADRS scale (a validated scale of depression symptom measurement) and the PGI-S (a valid patient
reported assessment of depression severity). Cognition improved markedly and to a similar extent in both Xanamem and
placebo groups. The peer-reviewed publication relating to this trial can be accessed for free via this link:

About Xanamem (emestedastat)
Xanamem’s novel mechanism is to control elevated levels of cortisol (aka the “stress hormone”) in the brain through the
inhibition of the cortisol synthesis enzyme, 11β-HSD1, without affecting production of cortisol by the adrenal glands which
is essential for the body’s normal functioning. Xanamem is a first-in-class, once-a-day pill designed to deliver high levels
of cortisol control in key areas of the brain related to Alzheimer’s and other diseases such as the hippocampus and frontal
cortex. To view Xanamem’s two-minute Mechanism of Action animation, click here.
Chronically elevated cortisol is associated with progression in Alzheimer’s Disease and excess cortisol is known to be
toxic to brain cells. Cortisol itself is also associated with depressive symptoms and when targeted via other mechanisms
has shown some promise in prior clinical trials. The recent XanaCIDD trial demonstrated clinically and sometimes
statistically significant benefits on depressive symptoms, further validating the cortisol control mechanism for the
Xanamem 10 mg oral daily dose.
The Company has studied 11β-HSD1 inhibition by Xanamem in more than 500 volunteers and patients in eight clinical
trials. Xanamem has a promising safety profile and has demonstrated clinical activity in patients with depression, patients
with biomarker-positive Alzheimer’s disease and cognitively normal volunteers. High levels of target engagement in the
brain with doses as low as 5 mg daily have been demonstrated in a human PET imaging study.
Xanamem is an investigational product and is not approved for use outside of a clinical trial by the FDA or by any global
regulatory authority. Xanamem® is a trademark of Actinogen Medical.

During the year there was a significant ramp up in expenditure activities by the Company across 35 different sites and
multiple vendors, in multiple locations globally, as the XanaMIA Alzheimer’s disease trial reached peak enrolment. In order
to support this ramp up in activity, employment costs increased during the period as the Company appointed new hires
(Senior Clinical Project Manager, Medical Writer and Senior Clinical Trial Associate); as well as prior-year new hires
completed a full year of employment (e.g. Chief Commercial Officer and Senior Director Portfolio and Program Manager).
Finance costs increased due to the interest on the prior year loan that was issued on 30 June 2026 plus the interest on the
existing loan issued on 27 January 2026, all being expensed in the current financial year.
Corporate and administration costs remained constant.

Progress has begun. The need remains
Recent therapeutic advances have demonstrated that
modifying the course of the disease is possible, representing
meaningful progress for patients, caregivers, physicians
and researchers. At the same time, real-world experience
has reinforced the limitations of current therapies and
the significant unmet need that remains, highlighting the
importance of developing additional treatment options that
offer meaningful clinical benefit while addressing the practical
needs of patients and physicians.
The Alzheimer’s landscape continues to evolve beyond new
therapies alone. Blood-based biomarkers are transforming
how patients are identified, diagnosed and enrolled into
clinical trials, creating opportunities for earlier intervention,
more efficient drug development and, ultimately, a more
personalized approach to patient care.
Together, these scientific and clinical
advances are reshaping the future of
Alzheimer’s disease and reinforcing the
need for continued innovation across
multiple therapeutic approaches.

Chair’s letter
Dear Shareholder,
I am pleased to present
the Actinogen Medical
Limited Annual Report
for the financial year
ended 30 June 2026,
reflecting on a year of
substantial achievement
and disciplined
execution.
As we approach the release of topline results from the pivotal
XanaMIA trial in Alzheimer’s disease later this year, we remain
mindful of the significance of the opportunity before us.
Should the trial prove successful, Xanamem has the potential
to become an important new treatment for patients living
with this devastating condition.
Actinogen entered FY2026 with a clear focus: to successfully
complete enrolment of the pivotal XanaMIA Alzheimer’s
disease trial, progress through its interim analysis milestone,
strengthen our regulatory and commercial position, and
ensure the company remained appropriately funded through
the delivery of topline results in November this year. I am
pleased to report that each of these objectives was achieved.
Pleasingly, the past year saw continued improvement
in sentiment toward biotechnology companies globally,
particularly those advancing innovative therapies through
late-successful stage clinical development. Closer to home
on the ASX there were some late-stage clinical failures
that disappointed in other therapeutic areas. While markets
continue to navigate geopolitical uncertainty, inflationary
pressures and shifting interest rate expectations, investors
increasingly focus on companies with differentiated science,
credible regulatory pathways and meaningful near-term value
inflection points. As we approach our first pivotal trial readout
in November Actinogen is well-positioned with this profile.
Executive leadership
The successful execution of our strategy and achievement
of our priorities is ultimately driven by the quality of
our people. I would like to commend the outstanding
performance of our executive leadership team, led by
Dr Steven Gourlay. Successfully managing a global late-stage
clinical development program requires exceptional scientific,
operational and commercial expertise, and the leadership
team has continued to execute with discipline, professionalism
and determination throughout the year.
I would also like to acknowledge our dedicated employees,
clinical investigators, research partners and contractors
whose efforts continue to underpin the company’s progress.
Importantly, I extend my sincere thanks to the patients and
families participating in our clinical trials. Their commitment
is essential to advancing the development of new therapies
for Alzheimer’s disease and other neurological conditions.
Capital management
Appropriate capital management remains one of the Board’s
most important responsibilities. Our objective is to ensure
the company has the financial resources required to execute
its strategy while maintaining flexibility to respond to
opportunities as they arise.
As noted earlier, one of our key priorities during FY2026 was
to ensure the company remained appropriately funded beyond
the delivery of topline XanaMIA results. I am pleased to report
that during the year, we strengthened our financial position
through a combination of equity financing, R&D tax incentive
receipts and non-dilutive funding initiatives.
Actinogen Medical Limited
8
Following the positive interim analysis outcome from the
XanaMIA trial in January, the company successfully completed
a $16.8 million capital raising comprising a placement and
share purchase plan, receiving strong support from both
institutional and retail investors as well as a further $0.5 million
from CEO, Steve Gourlay. The company also received its
FY2025 Research and Development tax incentive rebate
together with additional funding secured against future R&D
tax incentive receivables.
Collectively, these initiatives ensure that Actinogen remains
funded beyond the anticipated release of topline XanaMIA
results and provide the flexibility to continue advancing the
company’s strategic priorities.
Board, corporate governance and advisory boards
The Board remains committed to maintaining the highest
standards of governance, oversight and accountability.
As Actinogen progresses through late-stage clinical
development, strong governance and robust risk
management remain fundamental responsibilities
of the Board.
During the year we continued to review our governance
practices and assess the skills and capabilities required
to support the company’s ongoing growth and increasing
operational complexity. We remain committed to transparency
and accountability, supported by a governance framework
designed to provide effective oversight while enabling efficient
decision-making.
I thank my fellow directors for their dedication and invaluable
contributions throughout what has been a significant
year for the company. Their collective expertise across
biotechnology, medicine, finance, regulation and corporate
governance continues to provide important guidance and
significant leadership and support to management and
shareholders alike.
The Board also acknowledges the important contribution
made by the company’s scientific and clinical advisers.
During the year, the establishment of a dedicated Alzheimer’s
Disease Clinical Advisory Committee further strengthened
access to external expertise as we prepare for the next phase
of development and potential commercialization planning.
Annual General Meeting
This year’s Annual General Meeting will be held on
30 November 2026, and we look forward to engaging
with shareholders and discussing the company’s progress,
achievements and future opportunities. By that time
we expect to have reported topline results from the
Alzheimer’s trial which should make for a particularly
important and informative meeting for shareholders.
Further details regarding the venue and timing will be
provided in due course.
Outlook
We enter the new financial year with a strong sense of
purpose and optimism. Few biotechnology companies have
the opportunity to advance a development program with the
potential to meaningfully improve outcomes for patients living
with Alzheimer’s disease. The Board believes Actinogen enters
FY2027 exceptionally well positioned, having successfully
completed the many preparatory activities required to reach
this late stage of development.
The pivotal XanaMIA trial remains on track for topline results
in November 2026. These results have the potential to shape
the future direction of the Xanamem program, inform future
regulatory interactions, support commercial discussions and
broader strategic opportunities available to the company.
Alongside the anticipated trial outcome, we expect continued
engagement with regulators, further advancement of
commercial readiness initiatives and ongoing evaluation
of partnering opportunities.
In closing, I would like to sincerely thank you, our
shareholders, for your continued support and confidence
in Actinogen. The company has made substantial progress
throughout FY2026 and is poised for pivotal trial results
in November. On behalf of the Board, I thank you for your
ongoing commitment and look forward to sharing further
updates as we continue our efforts to deliver meaningful
innovation for patients and long-term value for shareholders.

Chief Executive Officer’s letter
Dear Shareholder,
The last year has been
the most important
and productive in
Actinogen’s history.
We entered this period with strong momentum behind our
pivotal XanaMIA Alzheimer’s disease trial program, and we
continue to execute against our strategy to develop Xanamem
safely and expeditiously. Our clear focus is to create value for
both patients and shareholders.
Actinogen’s focus on controlling excess cortisol in the brain
represents a differentiated and innovative approach to treating
Alzheimer’s disease. We are not aware of any other late-stage
program pursuing the same mechanism in central nervous
system diseases. Importantly, the scientific and clinical
data created by Actinogen over the past 12 years continue
to strengthen the argument that cortisol control may have
clinically meaningful benefit for patients.
Xanamem (emestedastat) is a remarkable small molecule
therapeutic, uniquely capable of addressing diseases
associated with dysregulated brain cortisol because of its
demonstrated ability to reach its 11β-HSD1 target in the brain.
To our knowledge, there is no other 11β-HSD1 molecule that
crosses the blood-brain barrier and is in development for
central nervous system (CNS) diseases.
Attention is now sharply focused on delivering high-quality
topline, final results for the pivotal XanaMIA Alzheimer’s
disease trial in Nove
