assets principally to cover research and development expenses, expenses
relating to the development of relationships with pharmaceutical companies,
with a view to encouraging new partnerships, and corporate expenses related

operating expenses to continue to increase very strongly over the coming
financial years, as a result of the anticipated expenses related to the
clinical development and the launch preparation activities for its drug
candidate naproxcinod, which is currently in phase 3 clinical development.
NicOx (Bloomberg: COX:FP, Reuters: NCOX.PA) is a product-driven
biopharmaceutical company dedicated to the development and future

is applying its proprietary nitric oxide-donating technology to develop an
internal portfolio of New Chemical Entities (NCEs) in the therapeutic areas

Resources are focused on the development of naproxcinod, a proprietary
NCE and the first compound in the Cyclooxygenase-Inhibiting Nitric

Beyond naproxcinod, NicOx has a pipeline containing multiple nitric
oxide-donating NCEs, which are in development internally and with partners,
including Pfizer Inc and Merck & Co., Inc., for the treatment of prevalent
and underserved diseases, such as atherosclerosis, hypertension, widespread
eye diseases and Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD).
NicOx S.A. is headquartered in France and is listed on the Euronext
