Allschwil, Switzerland - January 10, 2024

Idorsia Ltd (SIX: IDIA) today announced that Jean-Paul Clozel, Chief Executive

Officer of Idorsia, will present at the J.P. Morgan Healthcare Conference on

January 10, 2024, at 10:30 PST / 19:30 CET. The conference will take place at

the Westin St. Francis hotel in San Francisco, USA.

Jean-Paul will describe how Idorsia is being adapted for sustainable value

creation. The presentation will cover the progress of QUVIVIQ(TM) (daridorexant) in

the US and Europe, and the clinical data included in the new drug application

for aprocitentan with the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) which is

currently under review. He will also present other unencumbered assets that

provide the company with strategic flexibility and several avenues to explore

potential fundraising. Follow this link

Jean-Paul Clozel MD and Chief Executive Officer of Idorsia commented:

"Creating a sustainable pharma company requires scientific innovation and

substantial investment. We have demonstrated our ability to innovate and bring

new drugs to the market and have a portfolio of innovative products, however, we

have limited financing, so we need to prioritize activities that offer the

maximum return in the near term. We estimate the current cash reserves to last

to early April 2024, we therefore plan to extend the cash runway through various

avenues, including potential out-license deals."

Expected highlights in 2024

* Secure additional funding to extend the cash runway

* Expand access and availability of QUVIVIQ (daridorexant) in the US, Canada

and across Europe

* Achieve FDA decision for the NDA for aprocitentan in resistant hypertension

* Achieve EMA decision for the MAA for aprocitentan in resistant hypertension

Jean-Paul commented on the portfolio:

"More than 11 million QUVIVIQ tablets have been dispensed to help patients

achieve better nights and days. We have made great progress with access and

availability in our key markets, and I expect to see that translating into

income in 2024. I also expect aprocitentan - the first antihypertensive working

on a new pathway for 30 years - to become available for treated patients whose

hypertension remains uncontrolled. Discussions with health authorities are going

well and I'm confident that the label will reflect the outstanding results we've

seen for these high-risk patients. We also intend to progress the two global

Phase 3 programs with selatogrel and cenerimod which have the potential to

transform treatment in their target indications."
