Dennis Purcell, Non-Executive Chairman of Solvonis, commented: “On behalf of the Board, I would like to thank shareholders for their continued support at today’s Annual General Meeting.
“The past year has been an important period in the development of Solvonis, during which the Company completed its transition into a focused CNS therapeutics business and established a broader, more coherent portfolio across addiction and psychiatry.
“We are pleased with the balanced progress being made across the portfolio, including our later-stage clinical programmes in Alcohol Use Disorder and our emerging discovery and preclinical opportunities in PTSD, stimulant use disorder and depression.
“The Board remains focused on disciplined execution, capital-efficient development and creating long-term value for shareholders. We look forward to updating the market, as appropriate, on continued progress across the portfolio through the remainder of 2026.”
The Company’s strategy is to build a differentiated CNS therapeutics portfolio across areas of high unmet need, with later-stage clinical assets complemented by internally generated discovery programmes. Solvonis’ current portfolio includes SVN-001, its lead programme in severe Alcohol Use Disorder; SVN-002, its U.S.-focused Alcohol Use Disorder programme; and discovery and preclinical programmes including SVN-114 in PTSD and SVN-015 in stimulant use disorder and depression.
