CAMBRIDGE, Mass., November 14, 2024 - Enveric Biosciences (NASDAQ: ENVB) ("Enveric" or the "Company"), a biotechnology company dedicated to the development of novel neuroplastogenic small-molecule therapeutics for the treatment of depression, anxiety, and addiction disorders, today provided a corporate update and reported financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2024.

"The third quarter of 2024 was highlighted by important progress in the development of EB-003, our neuroplastogenic molecule that is designed to address difficult-to-treat mental health disorders without inducing the hallucinogenic effect common to N,N-Dimethyltryptamine (DMT) and related analogs," said Joseph Tucker, Ph.D., Director and CEO of Enveric. "Among the key achievements, data confirmed that EB-003 has the potential to be delivered via oral administration and penetrate the brain at levels expected to elicit the desired therapeutic effect. Additionally, preclinical safety and pharmacology studies confirmed that EB-003 targets desired serotonergic receptors while minimizing potentially harmful, off-target interactions common to serotonin-like drug compounds. These are clear differentiators for EB-003, which we believe will add to its value potential."

Dr. Tucker added: "Since the June FDA Advisory Committee hearing that raised numerous questions around the potential to approve MDMA for post-traumatic stress disorder, Enveric helped lead the discussion for how neuroplastogens with no or limited hallucinogenic effects might safely progress through clinical trials and gain approval for these patients in need while avoiding the challenges and complexities inherent to running trials with hallucination-inducing compounds. We chose to focus Enveric's AI-backed drug development platform on reducing and removing hallucinations for our various candidates to mitigate these challenges during clinical development and to reduce barriers to wide adoption by physicians post approval."

Dr. Tucker continued: "In our opinion, drug technologies that minimize or eliminate the hallucinogenic effect in molecules targeting the 5-HT2A receptor have the potential to become the gold standard in one or more neuropsychiatric indications, given the advantages such compounds would offer, including the ability to conduct truly blinded placebo-controlled clinical trials and the potential to administer the therapy in an outpatient setting without psychotherapy support. Recognizing this, we are working to finalize the data package for the EB-003 Investigational New Drug (IND) application, which we anticipate submitting to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration in the second half of 2025."

Dr. Tucker concluded: "In parallel with our EB-003 development efforts, Enveric continues to seek to identify opportunities to secure out-licensing agreements for our other proprietary drug candidates. On this front, we were pleased to enter into separate licensing agreements with Aries Science & Technology and MycoMedica Life Sciences, and we anticipate announcing additional agreements over the coming months . These agreements not only validate the Company's platform but also generate non-dilutive revenue to support the development of EB-003 and further building stockholder value."
