**Exhibit 99.1**![LOGO](g462803alvotech.jpg)

**Alvotech Announces Increase in Number of Own Shares** 

**REYKJAVIK, ICELAND (March 28, 2023)** — Alvotech (NASDAQ: ALVO) (the "Company"), a global biotech company specializing in the development and manufacture of biosimilar medicines for patients worldwide, today announced that the Board of Directors has resolved to increase the Company's share capital by an amount of one-hundred-and-forty-thousand-fifty-seven-dollars-and-ninety-cents (USD 140,057.90) by issuing fourteen-million-five-thousand-seven-hundred-and-ninety (14,005,790) ordinary shares. The Company's subsidiary, Alvotech Manco ehf. (the "subsidiary"), has subscribed to all of the newly issued shares for a price of USD 13.51 per share. The shares held by the subsidiary are treated as treasury shares without voting rights or dividend entitlement.

Following the above-mentioned transactions, the subsidiary will hold 26,212,633 shares in the Company, or around 9% of issued shares, and the number of issued shares has increased from 275,721,672 to 289,727,462 shares.

On 10 February 2023 the Company announced the completion of a private share placement and when the transaction was settled 11,834,061 shares previously held by the subsidiary were transferred to the investors. The share capital increase is intended to meet the reduction in the number of treasury shares which resulted from the above-mentioned settlement, allowing the Company to continue holding a sufficient number of shares to fulfill the Company's commitments related to various financial obligations, including warrants, convertible financial instruments and share-based employee compensation.
