All resolutions were approved

ALT5 Sigma Corporation (NASDAQ:ALTS) ("ALT5" or the "Company"), a leading fintech firm offering next-generation blockchain-powered technologies for tokenization, trading, clearing, settlement, payment, and safekeeping of digital assets, today announced that all proposed binding resolutions were approved at its 2024 Annual General Meeting (AGM).

Shareholders re-elected Ron Pitters, Richard D. Butler, Tony Isaac, John Bitar, and Nael Hajjar to the Board of Directors. Additionally, current CEO Peter Tassiopoulos was also elected to the Board.

"As we reflect on a transformative 2024, we are proud to have achieved record transaction volumes and to have made significant progress with our fintech platforms, ALT5 Pay and Prime. These accomplishments are a testament to the hard work and dedication of our team in driving growth and strengthening relationships with our customers. As we move into fiscal 2025, we are committed to maintaining this momentum and continuing to innovate across all areas of our business.

I am also truly grateful to our stockholders for electing me to the Board of Directors for the first time. I look forward to contributing at this new level of responsibility, guiding the company through its strategic initiatives, including the implementation of corporate actions, such as the spin-off of our healthcare assets into Alyea Therapeutics Corporation. This move will allow both our fintech and healthcare segments to focus on their core strengths and unlock even greater value for stockholders. We are excited about the future and eager to execute our growth plans for the benefit of all," stated Peter Tassiopoulos, CEO and Director, ALT5 Sigma Corporation.

ALT5 Fintech Update

Vay Tham, Chief Revenue Officer of ALT5 Sigma Corporation commented, "2024 has been a landmark year for ALT5, with both ALT5 Pay and ALT5 Prime platforms experiencing exceptional growth and surpassing US$2 billion in transaction volume in a calendar year for the first time. This milestone reflects the strong trust our customers place in our innovative solutions and the dedication of our team to driving value at every level.

"As we look to fiscal 2025, our focus remains on expanding our customer base, enhancing our platforms, and capitalizing on the momentum we've built. We are committed to delivering cutting-edge fintech solutions that meet the evolving needs of our clients, positioning ALT5 for continued success and growth in the years ahead."

Update on Spin-off

As previously announced, the Company plans to complete the spin-off of its healthcare assets in the first half of 2025. This will result in the formation of Alyea Therapeutics Corporation ("Alyea"). The decision to separate the healthcare and fintech segments allows each entity to concentrate on its unique business needs.

The Company has made significant progress in implementing this focused approach, particularly in M&A and capital allocation. To that end, we are pleased to report that Alyea has executed a non-binding letter of intent (LOI) with Soin Bioscience LLC, a pharmaceutical development company ("Soin Bio"), regarding the proposed acquisition of Soin Bio. This acquisition would strengthen Alyea's pipeline for pain management pharmaceutical development. Any consideration paid for the acquisition, or for Soin Bio's operations, will be the responsibility of Alyea. In support of this, the Company is in discussions to privately finance Alyea, ensuring that ALT5's fintech segment can focus its financial resources on expanding its core operations.

The proposed acquisition of Soin Bio includes its innovative "clear patch" pain medication technology, which aligns with Alyea's mission to develop non-addictive pain medications. The global pain patch market, valued at US$4.80 billion in 2021, is expected to grow to US$7.33 billion by 2031¹, with a steady Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 4.3% from 2022 to 2031. Soin Bio's clear patch technology is currently in the investigational stage, awaiting clinical trials and FDA approval before a market launch.

Dr. Amol Soin, founder of Soin Bio and incoming CEO of Alyea, explained, "Our clear patch technology is designed for pain relief at any targeted area, similar to a gel that dries to form a patch. It provides continuous medication delivery for up to eight hours, allowing for customizable treatment. Unlike conventional pain patches, ours is clear, invisible, and can be applied over joints or body creases. Moreover, it is not water-soluble, ensuring its effectiveness even if the area becomes moist. We are confident that this platform technology can have a competitive advantage over existing therapies available in the market today."

In addition to the clear patch technology, Alyea is preparing for pivotal clinical trials to support FDA approval of its lead asset, a novel oral formulation of low-dose naltrexone ("LDN"). This formulation has received Orphan Drug designation from the FDA for the treatment of complex regional pain syndrome.

The LOI with Soin Bio marks the initial step in the anticipated acquisition process. The closing of the transaction is subject to satisfactory due diligence, tax-related structuring, the preparation and execution of definitive acquisition agreements, and other customary closing conditions for transactions of this magnitude.
