HORIEN Biotech IPO in Taiwan

With its regulatory foundation fully established in Thailand, HORIEN is actively
inviting qualified exclusive and strategic distribution partners to drive responsible
market launch, clinician education, and long-term healthcare infrastructure development
across the country. Concurrently, the newly granted U.S. patent underscores HORIEN’s
world-class R&D capabilities in cross-linked biomaterials, further bolstering the
company’s reputation as an emerging global leader in regenerative medicine.

**Thai FDA Class 4 Approved Portfolio**

The three newly approved devices form the core of HORIEN’s porcine-derived collagen
biomaterial portfolio, manufactured using state-of-the-art Dehydrothermal Treatment(
DHT) and decellularization processes. These products establish a versatile framework
for clinical deployment across dental, surgical, wound care, and regenerative applications:

 1. **"Horien" Collagen Bone Graft Matrix**

A porous, implantable scaffold tailored for Guided Bone Regeneration (GBR) procedures,
engineered to provide optimal architecture for natural bone-remodeling and cellular
integration.

       2. **"Horien" Collagen Matrix**

A highly biocompatible collagen plug and sheet designed for rapid fluid absorption,
local clot stabilization, and superior wound coverage across surgical and dental
interventions.

       3.** "Horien" Extracellular Membrane**

A resorbable extracellular matrix derived from porcine Small Intestinal Submucosa(
SIS), specialized for Guided Tissue Regeneration (GTR) and alveolar ridge preservation
procedures.

**Milestone R&D Achievement: U.S. Biodegradable Ureteral Stent Patent**

Parallel to its commercial progress in Southeast Asia, HORIEN has been granted a
key U.S. invention patent for its novel **Biodegradable Ureteral Stent**. Designed
to address significant clinical pain points in urological procedures, this cutting-
edge stent safely degrades within the body post-healing, eliminating the need for
a secondary removal procedure and substantially lowering infection risks and patient
discomfort. This landmark patent significantly expands HORIEN’s technological moat
as it expands its biomaterial expertise from oral and wound care into high-value
urological applications globally.

**Capitalizing on Thailand’s Expanding Healthcare Ecosystem**

Thailand’s healthcare sector presents substantial commercial opportunity across 
all three focal areas of HORIEN’s biomaterial platform. According to Grand View 
Research, Thailand’s **dental equipment and consumables market** generated US$383.2
million in 2024 and is projected to reach US$569.5 million by 2030 (CAGR 6.9%). 
The **general surgery devices market** reached US$164.3 million in 2024 and is forecast
to hit US$257.6 million by 2030 (CAGR 7.9%). Meanwhile, Thailand’s **regenerative
medicine market** stood at US$63.0 million in 2024 and is expected to grow to US
$113.9 million by 2030 (CAGR 10.1%). Together, these robust growth trends signal
an accelerating demand for premium regenerative solutions.

"Thailand represents a pivotal cornerstone in HORIEN’s Southeast Asian expansion,"
said **Hsin-Yu Ho, General Manager of HORIEN Biochemical Technology Co., Ltd.** "
Securing three Class 4 Thai FDA approvals validates the clinical safety and efficacy
of our platform. Paired with our recent U.S. patent breakthrough for biodegradable
ureteral stents, we are proving that Taiwanese medical technology stands at the 
forefront of international innovation.

Our top priority in Thailand is to establish sustainable partnerships with distributors
who possess deep clinical reach and a strong commitment to professional medical 
education. In Taiwan, our ‘Horien’ Collagen Matrix alone generates over US$1.2 million
in annual revenue, demonstrating strong clinical validation and commercial maturity
that we look forward to sharing with our Thai partners."

**Exclusive Distribution Partnership Opportunities in Thailand**

HORIEN is actively hosting discussions with potential partners in Thailand for exclusive
or strategic regional distribution rights. Preference will be given to distributors
with established networks in dental, surgical, and regenerative medicine channels,
robust regulatory compliance capabilities, and dedicated resources for clinician
training and local market engagement.

**Key benefits for prospective Thai partners include:**

 ◦ Immediate market access with a Thai FDA-approved Class 4 product portfolio.
 ◦ Scalable, high-standard ISO/GMP-certified manufacturing capabilities.
 ◦ Comprehensive product training, scientific support, and technical education for
   local teams.

 ◦ Long-term collaboration with a publicly listed, innovation-driven biomaterials
   developer.
