 to adversely impact our business depends on future developments, which are highly uncertain and unpredictable, depending upon the severity and duration of the emergency and the effectiveness of actions taken globally to contain or mitigate its effects. Future financial impact cannot be estimated reasonably at this time, but may materially adversely affect our business, results of operations, financial condition, including the carrying

value of certain of our assets, and cash flows. Even after public health emergencies have subsided, we may experience materially adverse impacts to our business due to any resulting economic recession or depression and demand for our products and services. Additionally, concerns over the economic impact of public health emergencies have caused extreme volatility in financial and other capital markets which has and may in the future adversely impact our stock price and our ability to access capital markets including to refinance existing obligations. To the extent public health emergencies adversely affect our business and financial results, they may also have the effect of exacerbating many of the other risks described herein or other risks not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial.

ITEM 1C - CYBERSECURITY

Cybersecurity Risk Management and StrategyInotiv’s cybersecurity risk management framework is grounded in external standards, specifically those of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and the Center for Internet Security (CIS). These guidelines provide a strong, structured foundation designed to systematically protect business operations, customer data, and intellectual property in an environment of rapidly evolving cyber threats. We deploy a multifaceted security strategy that includes multi-factor authentication (MFA), advanced malware defenses, and comprehensive endpoint protection supported by Extended Detection and Response (XDR) technology. Additionally, we leverage the expertise of a third-party provider of Managed XDR services, which provides continuous monitoring  across our environment to respond swiftly to potential security events.To reinforce our commitment to cybersecurity, we engage in regular third-party assessments and testing to validate and strengthen our defenses. Independent experts review our incident response and disaster recovery plans, evaluating our capacity to respond to cyber incidents and restore business continuity under adverse conditions. We further enhance our security posture by commissioning robust internal and external penetration tests conducted by third-party providers. These assessments rigorously evaluate our systems for potential vulnerabilities, enabling us to mitigate threats proactively and strengthen resilience against both known and emerging threats. Our organization employs a comprehensive process to oversee and identify cyber threats associated with third-party service providers. For
