INTRODUCTION We are a commercial and clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company with a proprietary technology platform focused on the development and commercialization of a novel class of specifically targeted polyclonal antibodies that we believe can address significant unmet medical needs. This is a large addressable market which continues to grow as we seek to increase sales of our existing commercial products and to expand our product portfolio and distribution capability. We currently market our flagship commercial product Travelan® and ProIBS ® in Australia, where both products are listed medicine on the Australian Register for Therapeutic Goods. Travelan® (AUST L 106709) is an over-the-counter product indicated to reduce the risk of travelers' diarrhea, reduce the risk of minor gastro-intestinal disorders and is antimicrobial and is sold in pharmacies throughout Australia. ProIBS ® (AUST L 482225) is an over-the-counter orally administered product containing the proprietary ingredient AVH200 ® which has a unique dual mode of action, forming a gentle hydrogel film inside the gut, creating a protective, non-invasive barrier that supports the intestinal lining, balances microflora, and helps soothe irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) symptoms. ProIBS ® is indicated for the relief of symptoms of medically diagnosed Irritable Bowel Syndrome. We also market Travelan ® (NPN 80046016) in Canada where it is licensed as a natural health product indicated to reduce the risk of travelers' diarrhea, and presently market Travelan® in the U.S. as a dietary supplement for digestive tract protection. Protectyn ® (AUST L 231001) was sold online and in health practitioner clinics and marketed as an immune supplement to help maintain a healthy digestive function and liver. The company cancelled and removed the product from the Australian Register for Therapeutic Goods in June 2026. Our polyclonal antibodies offer delivery within the gastrointestinal ("GI") tract and do not cross into the bloodstream, potentially leading to improved safety and tolerability, without sacrificing efficacy. Our technology platform can be used to target viruses or bacteria and neutralize the toxins they produce at mucosal surfaces. We believe that our lead drug candidates currently entering the clinical development phase have the potential to transform the existing treatment paradigms for Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) infections, travelers' diarrhea and for Clostridioides difficile (C.difficle) infections.
