**Los Angeles, CA — June 17, 2026 — eXoZymes Inc. (NASDAQ: EXOZ) ("eXoZymes" or "Company"), a pioneer of AI-enhanced enzymes that transform abundant feedstock into valuable nutraceuticals and novel medicines, today announced the closing of its previously announced underwritten public offering of common stock and warrants.**

The offering consisted of 330,575 units, including 34,440 units sold in partial exercise of over-allotment option, each unit consisting of two shares of common stock and one warrant to purchase one additional share of common stock. The public offering price per share was $8.99 and per warrant was $0.02 resulting in gross proceeds of approximately $5.95 million before deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by the Company.

The warrants become exercisable one year from the date of issuance at an exercise price of $11.24 per share and expire on the five-year anniversary of the issuance date. The warrants are not listed on any national securities exchange or other trading market and may be redeemed by the Company upon occurrence of certain conditions. The warrant exercise price may be reset to $0.001 in the event the Company sells in a public or private offering before June 5, 2027, additional shares of common stock, or securities convertible into common stock, at a per share price (or equivalent) of less than $8.99.

The Company intends to use net proceeds from the offering to support development and commercialization activities related to N-trans-caffeoyltyramine ("NCT"), advance additional product opportunities, fund research and development activities, and for working capital and other general corporate purposes.

A final prospectus supplement and accompanying prospectus describing the terms of the offering was filed with the SEC on June 8, 2026 and are available on the SEC's website at <u>www.sec.gov</u>.

**About eXoZymes**

Founded in 2019, the company has developed a biomanufacturing platform that - as a historic first - offers the tools and insights to design, engineer, control and optimize nature's own natural processes to produce highly valuable natural products, via a commercially scalable, sustainable, and abundant alternative: exozymes.

Exozymes are advanced enzymes enhanced through bioengineering and AI to thrive in a bioreactor without using living cells. Exozymes can replace toxic petrochemical processes and inefficient biochemical extraction with sustainable and scalable biosolutions that transform abundant feedstock into valuable nutraceuticals and novel medicines.

By freeing enzyme-driven chemical reactions from cellular constraints, exozyme biosolutions remove the scaling bottleneck that has impeded synthetic biology's commercial success, paving the way for exozymes to lead the next generation of biomanufacturing innovation. eXoZymes Inc. introduced "exozymes" as an open scientific concept rather than as a trademark. By offering this new nomenclature for wide industry adoption, the company aims to pioneer this next generation of cell-free <u>biomanufacturing</u> and establish itself as the market leader.
