“Fiscal year 2026 was a transformational year for Alps. We completed our Business Combination with Globalink Investment Inc. and began trading on the Nasdaq Global Market under the ticker symbol 'ALPS,' giving us a stronger platform to execute against our long-term strategy,” said Dr. Tham Seng Kong, Managing Director and Group Chief Executive Officer of Alps Group Inc. “At the same time, we grew revenue 44% year-over-year, advanced our cellular therapy pipeline and sharpened our research and development focus on the areas where we see the greatest opportunity to deliver value for patients and shareholders.”

Fiscal Year 2026 Business Highlights

• Completed the Business Combination with Globalink in October 2025 and began trading on the Nasdaq Global Market (Nasdaq) under the ticker symbol “ALPS”.

• Advanced its Natural Killer (NK) Cell Therapy program, MyImmune, completing the optimization phase and progressing toward process validation.
• Identified a potential expansion of its exosome-based therapeutic pipeline beyond its existing CELESOME(+) program, following a case series on nebulized exosome therapy in asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease patients.

Recent Developments

• Expanded MyGenome Sdn. Bhd.'s laboratory accreditation to include Whole Genome Sequencing (WGS) under MS ISO 15189:2022, positioning MyGenome among a select group of genomics laboratories in Southeast Asia delivering WGS under internationally recognized clinical laboratory standards.
• Entered into a Research Consultancy and Collaboration Agreement, through subsidiary MyGenome Sdn. Bhd., to establish a clinically validated Patient-Derived Organoid (PDO) platform in Malaysia.
• Appointed Lee Hee Hang, a former Partner at Ernst & Young LLP, to the Board of Directors, bringing deep audit and financial governance expertise to the Company's Audit and Compensation Committees.
