For the Three and Nine Months Ended March 31, 2025 and 2024

(unaudited)

1.Background Information

BioVie Inc. (the “Company” or “we” or “our”) is a clinical-stage company developing innovative drug therapies to treat chronic debilitating conditions including neurological and neuro-degenerative disorders and liver disease.

The Company acquired the biopharmaceutical assets of NeurMedix, Inc. (“NeurMedix”) a privately held clinical-stage pharmaceutical company and a related party in June 2021*.* The acquired assets included NE3107 or (“bezisterim”). Bezisterim, the approved generic name for NE3107 is an investigational, novel, orally administered small molecule that is thought to inhibit inflammation-driven insulin resistance and major pathological inflammatory cascades with a novel mechanism of action. There is emerging scientific consensus that both inflammation and insulin resistance may play fundamental roles in the development of Alzheimer’s disease (“AD”) and Parkinson’s disease (“PD”), and beziisterim could, if approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”), represent an entirely new medical approach to treating these devastating conditions affecting an estimated 6 million Americans suffering from AD and 1 million Americans suffering from PD.

Neurodegenerative Disease Program

In neurodegenerative disease, the Company’s drug candidate bezisterim (NE3107) inhibits activation of inflammatory actions extracellular single-regulated kinase (“ERK”) and nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells (“NFκB”) (including interactions with tumor necrosis factor (“TNF”) signaling and other relevant inflammatory pathways) that lead to neuroinflammation and insulin resistance. Bezisterim (NE3107) does not interfere with their homeostatic functions (e.g., insulin signaling and neuron growth and survival). Both inflammation and insulin resistance are drivers of AD and PD.

Parkinson’s Disease

To extend the Phase 2 data in progressed patients from the previous Phase 2 study that completed in December 2022, the Company designed a new Phase 2 study of bezisterim (NE3107) as a potential first line therapy to treat patients with new onset PD. In July 2024, the Company submitted the new protocol and received a response from the FDA which permitted the Company to proceed with the study. The trial commenced in April 2025.

The previous Phase 2 study of bezisterim (NE3107) for the treatment of PD (NCT05083260) that completed in December 2022, was a double-blind, placebo-controlled, safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics study in PD participants treated with carbidopa/levodopa and bezisterim (NE3107). Forty-five patients with a defined L-dopa “off state” were randomized 1:1 to placebo: bezisterim (NE3107) 20 mg twice daily for 28 days. This trial was launched with two design objectives: 1) the primary objective was safety and a drug-drug interaction study as requested by the FDA to measure the potential for adverse interactions of bezisterim (NE3107) with carbidopa/ levodopa; and 2) the secondary objective was to determine if preclinical indications of promotoric activity and apparent enhancement of levodopa activity could be seen in humans. Both objectives were met.

Long COVID Program

In April 2024, the Company announced the grant of a clinical trial award of up to $13.1 million from the U.S. Department of Defense (“DOD”), awarded through the Peer Reviewed Medical Research Program of the Congressionally Directed Medical Research Programs. In August 2024, U.S. Army Medical Research and Development Command, Office of Human Research Oversight (“OHRO”) approved the Company’s plan to evaluate bezisterim (NE3107) for the treatment of neurological symptoms that are associated with long COVID. and the FDA authorized our Investigational New Drug (“IND”) application for bezisterim (NE3107) allowing the Company to study a novel, anti-inflammatory approach or the treatment of the debilitating neurocognitive symptoms associated with long covid. The Company anticipates the trial to commence in May 2025. The Company was reimbursed approximately $2.5 million and $2.8 million for trial costs incurred during the three and nine months ended March 31, 2025, respectively. Subsequent to March 31, 2025, additional reimbursements of approximately $141,000 were received for trial costs incurred through March 31, 2025.

Alzheimer’s Disease

On November 29, 2023, the Company announced the analysis of its unblinded, topline efficacy data from its Phase 3 clinical trial (NCT04669028) of bezisterim (NE3107) in the treatment of mild to moderate AD. The study had co-primary endpoints looking at cognition using the Alzheimer’s Disease Assessment Scale-Cognitive Scale (ADAS-Cog 12) and function using the Clinical Dementia Rating-Sum of Boxes (CDR-SB). Patients were randomly assigned, 1:1 versus placebo, to receive sequentially 5 mg of bezisterim (NE3107) orally twice a day for 14 days, then 10 mg orally twice a day for 14 days, followed by 26 weeks of 20 mg orally twice daily.

Upon trial completion, as the Company began the process of unblinding the trial data, the Company found significant deviation from protocol and current good clinical practices (“cGCPs”) violations at 15 study sites (virtually all of which were from one geographic area). This highly unusual level of suspected improprieties led the Company to exclude all patients from these sites and to refer the sites to the FDA Office of Scientific Investigations (“OSI”) for potential further action. After the patient exclusions, 81 patients remained in the Modified Intent to Treat population, 57 of whom were in the Per-Protocol population which included those who completed the trial and were verified to take study drug from pharmacokinetic data.

The trial was originally designed to be 80% powered with 125 patients in each of the treatment and placebo arms. The unplanned exclusion of so many patients left the trial underpowered for the primary endpoints. In the Per-Protocol population, which included those patients who completed the trial and who were further verified to have taken the study drug (based on pharmacokinetic data), an observed descriptive change from baseline appeared to suggest a slowing of cognitive loss; these same patients experienced an advantage in age deceleration vs. placebo as measured by DNA epigenetic change. Age deceleration is used by longevity researchers to measure the difference between the patient’s biological age, in this case as measured by the Horvath DNA methylation Skin Blood Clock, relative to the patient’s actual chronological age. This test was a non-primary/secondary endpoint, other-outcome measure, done via blood test collected at week 30 (end of study). Additional DNA methylation data continues to be collected and analyzed.

Liver Disease Program

In liver disease, our investigational drug candidate BIV201 (continuous infusion terlipressin), which was granted both FDA Fast Track designation status and FDA Orphan Drug Status, is being evaluated as a treatment option for patients suffering from ascites and other life-threatening complications of advanced liver cirrhosis caused by non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), hepatitis, and alcoholism. The initial target for BIV201 therapy was refractory ascites.

After receiving guidance from the FDA regarding the design of Phase 3 clinical testing of BIV201 for the treatment of patients with cirrhosis and ascites, the Company is now targeting a broader ascites patient population. The Company is currently finalizing the protocol design for the Phase 3 study of BIV201 with a focus on demonstrating clinical benefit through a composite primary endpoint of complications and disease progression in patients with cirrhosis and ascites who have recently recovered from acute kidney injury (“AKI”). This patient population is not limited to those having refractory ascites. BIV201 is administered as a patent-pending liquid formulation with patents issued in US, China, Japan, Chile and India to date.

In June 2021, the Company initiated a Phase 2 study (NCT04112199) designed to evaluate the efficacy of BIV201 (terlipressin, administered by continuous infusion for two 28-day treatment cycles) combined with standard-of-care (“SOC”), compared to SOC alone, for the treatment of refractory ascites. The primary endpoints of the study are the incidence of ascites-related complications and change in ascites fluid accumulation during treatment compared to a pre-treatment period. By October 2022, there were 15 patients enrolled for treatment and the last patient completed treatment in May 2023.

In March 2023, enrollment was paused and that data from the first 15 patients treated with BIV201 plus SOC appeared to show at least a 30% reduction in ascites fluid during the 28 days after treatment initiation compared to the 28 days prior to treatment. The change in ascites volume was significantly different from those patients receiving SOC treatment. Patients who completed the treatment with BIV201 experienced a 53% reduction in ascites fluid, which was sustained (43% reduction) during the three months after treatment initiation as compared to the three-month pre-treatment period.

The BIV201 development program was initiated by LAT Pharma LLC. On April 11, 2016, the Company acquired LAT Pharma LLC and the rights to its BIV201 development program. The Company currently owns all development and marketing rights to this drug candidate. Pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger entered into on April 11, 2016, between our predecessor entities, LAT Pharma LLC and NanoAntibiotics, Inc., BioVie is obligated to pay a low single digit royalty on net sales of BIV201 (continuous infusion terlipressin) to be shared among LAT Pharma Members, PharmaIn Corporation, and The Barrett Edge, Inc.

2.Liquidity and Going Concern

The Company’s operations are subject to a number of factors that can affect its operating results and financial conditions. Such factors include, but are not limited to: the results of clinical testing and trial activities of the Company’s products; the Company’s ability to obtain regulatory approval to market its products; competition from products manufactured and sold or being developed by other companies; the price of, and demand for, Company products; the Company’s ability to negotiate favorable licensing or other manufacturing and marketing agreements for its products; and the Company’s ability to raise capital. The Company’s financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. As of March 31, 2025, the Company had working capital of approximately $21.2 million, cash and cash equivalents totaling approximately $23.2 million, stockholders’ equity of approximately $21.8 million, and an accumulated deficit of approximately $348.7 million. The Company is in the pre-revenue stage and no revenues are expected in the foreseeable future. The Company’s future operations are dependent on the success of the Company’s ongoing development and commercialization efforts, as well as its ability to secure additional financing as needed. Projected cash flows could be extended if further measures are taken to delay planned expenditures on our research protocols and slow the progress in the Company’s development and launch of next phase clinical programs.

The future viability of the Company is largely dependent upon its ability to raise additional capital to finance its operations. Management expects that future sources of funding may include sales of equity, obtaining loans, or other strategic transactions.

Although management continues to pursue the Company’s strategic plans, there is no assurance that the Company will be successful in obtaining sufficient financing on terms acceptable to the Company, if at all, to fund continuing operations. These circumstances raise substantial doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

3.Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation – Interim Financial Information

These unaudited interim condensed financial statements and related notes have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United State of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for Interim Reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. The unaudited interim condensed financial statements furnished reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) that are, in the opinion of management, considered necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year. The condensed balance sheet at June 30, 2024, was derived from audited annual financial statements but does not contain all the footnote disclosures from the annual financial statements. These unaudited interim condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on September 30, 2024 (the “2024 Form 10-K”). A summary of significant accounting policies can also be found in those audited financial statements in the 2024 Form 10-K.

*Cash and cash equivalents *

Cash and cash equivalents consisted of cash deposits and money market funds held at a bank and funds held in a brokerage account which included a U.S. treasury money market fund and U.S. Treasury Bills with original maturities of three months or less.

Investments in U.S. Treasury Bills

Investments in U.S. Treasury Bills with maturities greater than three months, are accounted for as available-for-sale and are recorded at fair value. Realized gains were included in the accompanying condensed statements of operations and comprehensive loss from the settlement of available-for-sale investments during the nine months ended March 31, 2024. The Company had no outstanding investment securities with original maturities of greater than three months at the time of purchase as of and during the three and nine months ended March 31, 2025.

Concentration of Credit Risk in the Financial Service Industry

As of March 31, 2025, the Company had cash deposited in certain financial institutions in excess of federally insured levels. The Company regularly monitors the financial stability of these financial institutions and believes that it is not exposed to any significant credit risk in cash and cash equivalents. However, if liquidity and financial stability concerns arise with respect to banks and financial institutions, either nationally or in specific regions, the Company’s ability to access cash or enter into new financing arrangements may be threatened, which could have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition and results of operations.

Fair value measurement of assets and liabilities

We determine the fair values of our financial instruments based on the fair value hierarchy, which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value assumes that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability occurs in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability and establishes that the fair value of an asset or liability shall be determined based on the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. The classification of a financial asset or liability within the hierarchy is based upon the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The fair value hierarchy prioritizes the inputs into three levels that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1 - Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 - Inputs are quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly through market corroboration, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.

Level 3 - Inputs are unobservable inputs based on our assumptions.

The Company’s financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable and the carrying value of the operating lease liabilities and notes payable. The carrying amounts of cash and accounts payable approximate their fair value, due to the short-term nature of these items. The carrying amounts of notes payable and operating lease liabilities approximate their fair values since they bear interest at rates which approximate market rates for similar debt instruments.

Net Loss per Common Share

Basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of the Company’s Class A common stock (“Common Stock”) outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss attributable to Common Stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of Common Stock outstanding and potentially outstanding shares of Common Stock during the period to reflect the potential dilution that could occur from common shares issuable through stock options, warrants, and convertible debentures. For the three and nine months ending March 31, 2025 and 2024, such amounts were excluded from the diluted loss since their effect was considered anti-dilutive due to the net loss for the periods presented.

The table below shows the potential shares of Common Stock, presented based on amounts outstanding at each period end, which were excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders because including them would have had an anti-dilutive effect:

Reverse stock split

The company effected a 1:10 reverse split of the issued and outstanding shares of its Common Stock which was approved by the board of directors after the approval obtained from shareholders at a special meeting on July 29, 2024 which became effective on Nasdaq on August 6, 2024, 5 trading days after the shareholders’ approval was obtained. All historical share and earnings per share amounts have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the split.

Grant program

The Company records expenses related to the DOD Long Covid Program as such expenses are incurred. The reimbursement of such expenses is recognized upon receipt of the reimbursement as a credit against the respective expense account.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In November 2024, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2024-03, Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (“DISE”), which will require additional disclosure of the nature of expenses included in the income statement in response to longstanding requests from investors for more information about an entity’s expenses. The new standard requires disclosures about specific types of expenses included in the expense captions presented on the face of the income statement as well as disclosures about selling expenses. The new standard will be effective for public companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027. The requirements will be applied prospectively with the option for retrospective application. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this accounting standard update on its financial statements.

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, "Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures," to enhance disclosures for significant segment expenses for all public entities required to report segment information in accordance with ASC 280. The standard did not change the definition of a segment, the method for determining segments or the criteria for aggregating operating segments into reportable segments. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Retrospective adoption is required for all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The adoption is not expected to have a material impact to our financial statements or disclosures.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, "Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements in Income Tax Disclosures" to enhance the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures. This amendment requires public companies to disclose specific categories in the rate reconciliation and provide additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold. Additionally, under the amendment entities are required to disclose the amount of income taxes paid disaggregated by federal, state and foreign taxes, as well as disaggregated by material individual jurisdictions. Finally, the amendment requires entities to disclose income from continuing operations before income tax expense disaggregated between domestic and foreign and income tax expense from continuing operations disaggregated by federal, state and foreign. The new rules are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. We will adopt this standard on a prospective basis as allowed by the standard. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material impact on our financial statements.

Equity Transactions with Acuitas

On July 15, 2022, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement with Acuitas Group Holdings, LLC (“Acuitas”), the Company’s largest stockholder, pursuant to which Acuitas agreed to purchase from the Company, in a private placement, (i) an aggregate of 363,636 shares of the Company’s Common Stock, at a price of $16.50 per share (the “PIPE Shares”), and (ii) a warrant to purchase 727,273 shares of Common Stock (“PIPE Warrant Shares”), at an exercise price of $18.20, with a term of exercise of five years. The down round feature reduced the exercise price of the PIPE Warrant Shares to $10.00 per share on March 6, 2024, $1.53 per share on September 25, 2024 and again to $1.37 on October 22, 2024 in connection with the offerings further described in Note 8, as the Company sold stock at a price lower than its initial exercise price.

For the three months ended September 30, 2024, the Company calculated the difference in fair value of the PIPE Warrant Shares between the stated exercise price and the reduced exercise price and recorded $325,041 as a deemed dividend in the accompanying condensed statement of changes in stockholders’ equity. The fair value of the PIPE Warrant Shares were estimated using the Black Scholes Method with the following inputs, the stock price of $1.20, exercise price of $1.53 and $10.00, remaining term of 2.9 years, risk free rate of 3.5% and volatility of 93.0%.

For the three months ended December 31, 2024, the Company calculated the difference in fair value of the PIPE Warrant Shares between the stated exercise price and the reduced exercise price and recorded $44,424 as a deemed dividend in the accompanying condensed statement of changes in stockholders’ equity. The fair value of the PIPE Warrant Shares were estimated using the Black Scholes Method with the following inputs, the stock price of $3.36, exercise price of $1.53 and $1.37, remaining term of 2.8 years, risk free rate of 4.0% and volatility of 94.0%.

For the nine months ended March 31, 2025, the Company recorded $369,465 as a deemed dividend in the accompanying condensed statement in stockholders’ equity.

Consulting expenses

During the nine months ended March 31, 2025, the Company paid a Director of the Company $50,000 for consulting services which are reflected as a component of selling, general and administrative expenses on the accompanying condensed statement of operations and comprehensive loss. There wereno consulting expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2025.

6.Notes Payable

On November 30, 2021 (the “Closing Date”), the Company entered into a Loan and Security Agreement and the Supplement to the Loan and Security Agreement and Promissory Notes (together, the “Loan Agreement”) with Avenue Venture Opportunities Fund, L.P. (“AVOPI”) and Avenue Venture Opportunities Fund II, L.P. (“AVOPII,” and together with AVOPI, “Avenue”) for growth capital loans in an aggregate commitment amount of up to $20 million (the “Loan”). On the Closing Date, $15 million of the Loan was funded (“Tranche 1”). The Loan bore interest at an annual rate equal to the greater of (a) the sum of 7.00% plus the prime rate as reported in The Wall Street Journal and (b) 10.75%. The Loan was secured by a lien upon and security interest in all of the Company’s assets, including intellectual property, subject to agreed exceptions. The Loan was paid in full on its maturity date of December 1, 2024 along with a final payment equal to 4.25% of the Loan commitment amount, or $850,000, the (“Loan Premium”) and the lien upon and security interest in all of the Company’s assets was released.

The Loan Agreement included a conversion option to convert up to $5.0 million of the principal amount of the Loan outstanding at the option of Avenue, into shares of the Company’s Common Stock at a conversion price of $69.80 per share (the “Conversion Option”).

On the Closing Date, the Company also issued to Avenue warrants to purchase 36,101 shares of Common Stock of the Company (the “Avenue Warrants”) at an exercise price per share equal to $58.20. The Avenue Warrants are exercisable until November 30, 2026.

The amount of the carrying value of the notes payable was determined by allocating portions of the outstanding principal of the notes, resulting in approximately $1.4 million allocated to the fair value of the Avenue Warrants, and approximately $2.2 million allocated to the fair value of the embedded Conversion Option. Accordingly, the total amount of unearned discount of approximately $3.6 million, the total direct financing cost of approximately $390,000 and the Loan Premium of $850,000 were amortized using the effective interest method over the term of the Loan.

Total interest expense associated with the Loan was approximately $312,000, which is reflected as a component of interest expense on the accompanying condensed statements of operations and comprehensive loss for the nine months ended March 31, 2025. Interest expense associated with this loan was comprised of interest incurred on the outstanding principal of the loan of approximately $163,000, amortization of financing costs of approximately $12,000, amortization of the unearned discount of approximately $111,000, and the accretion of the Loan Premium of approximately $26,000.

Total interest expense associated with the Loan for the three months ended March 31, 2024 was approximately $629,000 on the accompanying condensed statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Interest expense was comprised of interest incurred on the outstanding principal of the loan of approximately $327,000, amortization of financing costs of approximately $24,000, amortization of the unearned discount of approximately $222,000 and the accretion of Loan Premium of approximately $52,000. Total interest expense associated with the Loan for the nine months ended March 31, 2024 was approximately $2.5 million on the accompanying condensed statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Interest expense was comprised of interest incurred on the outstanding principal of the loan of approximately $1.3 million, amortization of financing costs of approximately $92,000, amortization of the unearned discount of approximately $867,000 and the accretion of Loan Premium of approximately $201,000.

The following is a summary of the Notes Payable as of March 31, 2025 and June 30, 2024:

Schedule of note payable

7.Fair Value Measurements

The Company’s derivative liabilities during the nine months ended March 31, 2025 related to the Avenue Warrants is a level 3 liability measured at fair value.

The fair value of the Avenue Warrants at March 31, 2025, in the accompanying condensed balance sheets, was nil. The total change in the fair value of the derivative liabilities totaled approximately $3,771 and $1.8 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and approximately $7,290 and $109,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively; and accordingly, was recorded in the accompanying condensed statements of operations and comprehensive loss. The assumptions used in the Black Scholes model to value the derivative liabilities at March 31, 2025 included the closing stock price of $0.98 per share; for the Avenue Warrants, the exercise price of $58.20, remaining term 1.7 years, risk free rate of 3.9% and volatility of 86.0%. The Conversion Option was nil as of March 31, 2025 and June 30, 2024 as the corresponding debt matured and was repaid in December 2024.

Derivative liability – Avenue Warrants

The Avenue Warrants were not considered to be indexed to the Company’s own stock, and accordingly, were recorded as a derivative liability at fair value in the accompanying condensed balance sheets at March 31, 2025 and June 30, 2024, respectively.

The Black Scholes model was used to calculate the fair value of the derivative warrant to bifurcate the amount from the Avenue Loan amount funded. The Avenue Warrants are recorded at fair value at the date of issuance and remeasured at each subsequent reporting period end date.

Embedded derivative liability – Conversion Option

The Conversion Option was accounted for as an embedded derivative liability and required bifurcation from the Loan amount. The Black Scholes model was used to calculate the fair value of the Conversion Option to bifurcate it from the Loan.

Financial assets

As of March 31, 2025, investments in U.S. Treasury Bills were valued through use of quoted prices and are classified as Level 1. The following table presents information about our assets that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis using the above input categories.

8.Equity Transactions

Issuance of common stock for cash

On March 6, 2024, the Company closed a best efforts public offering (the “Offering”) of 15,000,000 shares (the “Shares”) of its Common Stock, pre-funded warrants (the “Pre-funded Warrants”) to purchase 6,000,000 shares of Common Stock, and warrants to purchase up to 10,500,000 shares of Common Stock (the “Common Warrants”) at a combined public offering price of $1.00 per Share, or Pre-funded Warrant, and the associated Common Warrant.

Shareholder class action complaint and shareholder derivative complaints

On January 19, 2024, a purported shareholder class action complaint, captionedEric Olmstead v. BioVie Inc. et al., No. 3:24-cv-00035, was filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of Nevada, naming the Company and certain of its officers as defendants. On February 22, 2024, a second, related putative securities class action was filed in the same court asserting similar claims against the same defendants, captionedWay v. BioVie Inc. et al., No. 2:24-cv-00361. On April 15, 2024, the court consolidated these two actions under the captionIn re BioVie Inc. Securities Litigation, No. 3:24-cv-00035, appointed the lead plaintiff, and approved selection of the lead counsel. On June 21, 2024, the lead plaintiff filed an amended complaint, alleging that the defendants made material misrepresentations and/or omissions of material fact relating to the Company’s business, operations, compliance, and prospects, including information related to the NM101 Phase 3 study and trial of bezisterim (NE3107) in mild to moderate probable AD, in violation of Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Exchange Act, and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder. The class action is on behalf of purchasers of the Company’s securities during the period from December 7, 2022 through November 28, 2023, and seeks unspecified monetary damages on behalf of the putative class and an award of costs and expenses, including attorney’s fees. The defendants filed a motion to dismiss the amended complaint on August 21, 2024, and that motion was fully briefed as of December 5, 2024. On March 27, 2025, the court denied the defendants’ motion to dismiss, allowing the case to move into fact discovery.

On December 30, 2024, a shareholder derivative lawsuit was filed in the United States District Court for the District of Nevada by putative stockholder Andrew Hulm, allegedly on behalf of the Company, that piggy-backs on the securities class action also pending in that court. The derivative complaint names certain current and former officers and directors as defendants, and generally alleges that they breached their fiduciary duties by causing or failing to prevent the securities violations alleged in the securities class action.

On April 28, 2025, a second shareholder derivative lawsuit was filed in the United States District Court for the District of Nevada by putative stockholder William Settel, allegedly on behalf of the Company, that likewise piggy-backs on the securities class action. The Settel derivative complaint alleges essentially the same claims as the Hulm derivative action against the same defendants based on the same alleged conduct.

The Company believes that the claims are without merit and intend to defend vigorously against them, but there can be no assurances as to the outcome.
