Key Business Highlights of FY26

· Strengthened leadership, improved customer engagement and sharper execution discipline positions Cohance for growth. The Company is transitioning to a steady-state execution model, with focus shifting from capability build to delivery and conversion.
· Q4 and full year FY26 performance was aligned with previous guidance.
· Functional depth enhanced across Business Development, Quality, Regulatory, R&D and Operations, with clear accountability across business units.
· Added one new Phase III lateral programme in small molecules with large Innovator and one programme each in ADCs and oligonucleotides advanced to the Phase III pipeline. With two programmes progressing towards early commercialisation, the total Phase III pipeline now stands at 10 programme across our platform.
· Pipeline remains steady with consistent RFP inflows 2x across small molecules, ADC and complex chemistries continues to reinforce pipeline strength; ongoing efforts are focused on enhancing win rates in laterals (late stage pipeline).
Outlook
In FY27, growth will return from 2HFY27 onwards. We believe the business is moving towards a bottoming-out phase, with Q1FY27 to be the low point, both on revenue and EBITDA. We expect growth visible from 2HFY27 onwards, supported by execution on existing programmes, customer conversions, reloads and improving utilisation across the platform.
