Xlife Sciences AG / Key word(s): Market Report Zurich, 5th of May 2025: Xlife Sciences AG («Xlife Sciences»; SIX: XLS) today published its 2024 Valuation Report, evaluating the company’s project portfolio as of December 31, 2024. The independent consulting firm CYLAD Consulting conducted the assessment, which covers 16 project companies within Xlife Sciences’ total portfolio1. CYLAD Consulting based its assessment on financial forecasts and strategic plans, supplemented by site visits and discussions with the management of the respective project company. The evaluation was performed using the risk-adjusted net present value (rNPV) method, widely applied in the life sciences industry. Key parameters for the valuation included cost of capital and development risks specific to the project companies.
Oliver R. Baumann, CEO of Xlife Sciences, commented: «The 2024 Valuation Report again confirms the strong potential of our portfolio. Our model of accelerating innovative projects from top academic institutions toward commercialization continues to create substantial value for our shareholders. We remain focused on strategic project development and selective international expansion, including the validation of our business model by transaction/partial exits as with the most recent VERAXA Biotech AG announcement.» Following the intended capital market transaction of FUSE-AI GmbH and the associated offer from Pineapple Power Corporation PLC to acquire the company at an expected valuation of EUR 80-90 million and thus take it public (LSE, UK), additional incoming offers and opportunities were carefully reviewed. In close coordination with Xlife Sciences AG and other strategic partners, the company has decided to align a potential listing with the current valuation report (EUR 100-115 million) and, in consultation with strategic co-investors, to target the more attractive U.S. market. This approach aims to achieve broader market entry, faster scaling, and access to the necessary growth capital. The full 2024 Valuation Report can be downloaded at: https://www.xlifesciences.ch/en/news-and-key-figures (Section «Financial Reports») 1 The eight project companies Firstgene Therapeutics GmbH, XRNA Biotech GmbH, xprot GmbH, novaxomx GmbH, Novum Technologie GmbH, Xsight Optics GmbH, QUADIRA BIOSCIENCES AG and 4D Lifetec AG were not evaluated.
