About Futura Medical plc

Futura Medical plc (AIM: FUM), is a pharmaceutical company developing a portfolio of innovative products based on its proprietary, transdermal DermaSys(R) technology. Each DermaSys(R) formulation is separately patented and specifically tailored for the selected indication and application, as well as being optimised for clinical efficacy, safety, administration and patient convenience. The products are developed for the prescription and consumer healthcare markets as appropriate. Current therapeutic areas are sexual health, including erectile dysfunction, and pain relief. Development and commercialisation strategies are designed to maximise product differentiation and value creation whilst minimising risk.

MED3000 is Futura's topical gel formulation that is a novel treatment for erectile dysfunction ("ED") through a unique evaporative mode of action. Futura has previously conducted an initial Phase 3 study using MED3000 in ED, referred to as "FM57" which enabled Futura to be granted a CE Mark in 2021. A second confirmatory Phase 3 clinical study, "FM71" was also conducted to support Futura's regulatory submission to the FDA with 96 ED patients and endpoints at 24 weeks, demonstrating that MED3000 presents an effective clinically proven treatment for ED with a rapid speed of onset and a favourable benefit versus risk profile ideally suited for OTC classification.

Eroxon(R) is CE marked in Europe and UKCA marked in the UK as a clinically proven topical treatment for adult men with erectile dysfunction under the brand Eroxon(R) with a key claim of "Helps you get an erection within 10 minutes". Eroxon(R) is the agreed brand name in certain regions such as the EU whereas MED3000 continues to be the internal code name used by the Company and also in reference to countries where regulatory approval or commercial distribution agreements have not yet been achieved. www.eroxon.com

Futura is based in Guildford, Surrey, and its shares trade on the AIM market of the London Stock Exchange. www.futuramedical.com
