## Exhibit 99.1

**EXHIBIT 99.1**

**Alvotech Provides Update on the Status of U.S. Biologics License Application for AVT05**

REYKJAVIK, Iceland, Nov. 02, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Alvotech (NASDAQ: ALVO), a global biotech company specializing in the development and manufacture of biosimilar medicines for patients worldwide, announced today that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has issued a complete response letter (CRL) for Alvotech's Biologics License Application (BLA) for AVT05, in a prefilled syringe and autoinjector presentations, a biosimilar candidate to Simponi® (golimumab).

The CRL noted that certain deficiencies, which were conveyed following the FDA's pre-license inspection of Alvotech's Reykjavik manufacturing facility that concluded in July 2025, must be satisfactorily resolved before this BLA for AVT05 can be approved. The FDA did not identify any other deficiencies with the application. The facility remains FDA approved to manufacture and continues supplying currently commercialized products.

Sales of Simponi in the U.S. in the first half of 2025 were less than $300 million, according to data published by IQVIA. Currently, there are no FDA approvals for a biosimilar to Simponi.

"As previously discussed, following the inspection of our facility, Alvotech submitted a comprehensive response to the FDA detailing our Corrective and Preventive Action (CAPA) plan. While we are disappointed in receiving the CRL, we expect to resolve any outstanding issues and will continue to work with the FDA to bring this first-to-market biosimilar to patients in the U.S.," said Robert Wessman, Chairman and CEO of Alvotech.

Following the receipt of the CRL, Alvotech has reevaluated its outlook for 2025. Total revenues in 2025 are now expected to be $570-$600 million and adjusted EBITDA $130-$150 million, lower than previously provided. The lowered adjusted EBITDA outlook is primarily driven by expected continuation of investments related to resolving certain facility issues, which also require a temporary slowdown in production. These investments, however, also serve to support Alvotech's future growth plans and new product launches.
