JUPITER, Fla., August 13, 2025 — Dyadic International, Inc. ("Dyadic", "we", "us", "our", or the "Company") (NASDAQ: DYAI), a global biotechnology company focused on the scalable production of high-value, precision engineered functional input proteins for non-therapeutic applications in life sciences, food and nutrition, and industrial biotechnology utilizing its proprietary gene expression platforms, today announced its financial results for the second quarter of 2025, highlighting recent company progress.

"Q2 marked a pivotal turning point in Dyadic's evolution as we advanced our transformation from a technology development organization to a market-facing, revenue-focused biotechnology company. Our rebranding to Dyadic Applied BioSolutions and strategic realignment have sparked renewed interest across our ecosystem — from partners and customers to investors — and reflect our commitment to commercial execution," said Joe Hazelton, President and COO. "We achieved critical milestones in our life sciences and nutrition pipelines, while our microbial production platforms continued to demonstrate the ability to disrupt the cost, speed, and scalability of protein production across life sciences, food, nutrition, and bio-industrial markets that are rapidly shifting toward non-animal sources. The recent capital raise should enable us to accelerate our shift from R&D-driven to commercially focused, and we are particularly excited about the anticipated upcoming launches of DNase I and recombinant human albumin through our partnership with Proliant Health and Biologics, the first of a potential series of product-driven revenue catalysts as we continue delivering on our mission to engineering proteins that power progress."

**Recent Company Developments and Updates**

**Life Sciences**

● **Non-Animal Cell Culture Media** 

● **Recombinant Serum Albumin:** In partnership with Proliant Health and Biologicals ("Proliant"), Dyadic is advancing toward an expected commercial launch in 2025 of animal-free serum albumin for use in cell culture, diagnostics and vaccine stabilization. Dyadic has received $1.0 million in milestone payments to date, with additional payments and royalties tied to commercial success. Additionally, the Company anticipates achieving a third milestone payment of $500,000 in Q3 2025 related to productivity improvements and future revenue sharing payments for commercial sales.

● **Recombinant Transferrin:** Dyadic's animal-free transferrin has demonstrated equivalent performance to leading recombinant reference standards in cell proliferation testing. Designed as a high-quality, cost-effective, non-animal alternative to serum-derived transferrin, it targets applications in cell culture media, diagnostics, research, and bioprocessing. Sampling and validation for diagnostic and research use is actively underway in Q3 2025.

● **Growth Factors:** Dyadic's recombinant Fibroblast Growth Factor (FGF) has demonstrated comparable performance to reference standards in supporting animal muscle cell growth. Efforts are underway to improve productivity, with additional characterization and validation ongoing. Sampling to cell culture, diagnostic and research markets is underway.

● **Reagent Proteins & DNA/RNA Enzymes** 

● **DNase-1** **(RNase-free):** Dyadic's RNase-free DNase-1, developed for use in molecular diagnostics, biopharma, and related applications, is advancing toward commercial availability. Initial scale-up at an European Contract Development and Manufacturing Organization has been successful, with production validation and research-grade material manufacturing underway. Sampling is active, with ongoing discussions for potential partnerships and agreements across multiple markets.

● **Expanded Nucleic Acid Enzymes Portfolio:** Dyadic is developing and validating prototypes for four additional enzymes, including RNase Inhibitors and T7 RNA Polymerase, to support growing demand for DNA/RNA manipulation tools. Initial quality and productivity improvements have shown positive results, with further optimization underway and results expected by late 2025 and into 2026.

**Food and Nutrition**

● **Non-animal Dairy Applications** 

● **Alpha-Lactalbumin:** Dyadic is actively negotiating licensing and supply agreements for its recombinant alpha-lactalbumin. Characterization is ongoing, with sampling for the cell culture research market expected in Q4 2025.

● **Human Lactoferrin:** A stable cell line has been developed, with continued optimization and characterization underway. Sampling for research use is expected to begin in the second half of 2025 .

● **Non-Animal Dairy Enzymes:** Dyadic expects to receive a $250,000 milestone payment from Inzymes for productivity achievements. Scale-up and commercialization efforts for the first enzyme are progressing toward a late 2025 launch, with additional enzymes in development under the existing license agreement.

**BioPharmaceutical Programs**

● **Gates Foundation Monoclonal Antibody Project:** Achieved milestones in its partnership with the Gates Foundation, resulting in a second installment of $1.5 million in non-dilutive funding from a $3.0 million grant to further develop low-cost monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) for diseases such as malaria and RSV.

● **CEPI-FBS Grant:** Dyadic's C1 platform is being advanced under a $4.5M Coalition for Epidemic Preparedness Innovations ("CEPI") grant awarded to Fondazione Biotecnopolo di Siena, with Dyadic eligible to receive up to $2.4M as a subcontractor. The project supports antigen design, cell line development, and cGMP scale-up for recombinant protein vaccines.

● **European Vaccines Hub**: Dyadic participated in the inaugural EVH meeting, a €170M EU-backed initiative led by Dr. Rino Rappuoli to establish a centralized vaccine R&D and manufacturing hub. Dyadic's C1 platform is among the technologies under evaluation for its potential to accelerate and reduce the cost of vaccine and antibody production.

● **Uvax Bio Collaboration:** CEPI awarded $2.6M to Uvax Bio, with a portion allocated to MERS vaccine development and assessment of Dyadic's C1 platform for rapid, cost-effective vaccine manufacturing.

 **Bio Industrial Products**

● In partnership with Fermbox Bio, EN3ZYME™ — a Dyadic-produced enzyme cocktail for converting agri-residue into fermentable cellulosic sugars — was launched using the Dapibus™ expression platform. Initial enzyme delivery has been completed following an initial Fermbox purchase order. Dyadic is expected to receive a 50/50 revenue profit share from commercial sales.

● Sampling efforts are currently underway, with ongoing negotiations in the biomass processing, biofuels, and pulp & paper markets to expand product adoption and explore additional enzyme opportunities under development.

**Financial Highlights**

**Cash Position:** As of June 30, 2025, cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and cash equivalents, and the carrying value of investment-grade securities, including accrued interest, were approximately $7.3 million compared to $9.3 million as of December 31, 2024.

On August 1, 2025, the Company closed its public offering (the "Offering") of 6,052,000 shares of its common stock, par value $0.001 per share at a public offering price of $0.95 per share. The net proceeds to the Company from the Offering were approximately $5.3 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by the Company. The Company intends to use the net proceeds of the Offering for working capital and general corporate purposes, such as product development, sales and marketing.

**Revenue:** Total revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2025, increased to $967,000 compared to $386,000 for the same period a year ago. The increase was driven by the $250,000 milestone revenue upon the achievement of commercially viable target yield related to the Inzymes Agreement and grant revenue from the Gates Foundation and CEPI.

**Cost of Revenue:** Cost of research and development revenue and cost of grant revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2025, increased to approximately $614,000 compared to $302,000 for the same period a year ago.
