Statutory Financial Statements
Oculis Holding AG
for the period ending December 31, 2025

Report of the statutory auditor to the General Meeting of Oculis Holding AG, Zug
Report on the audit of the financial statements
Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of Oculis Holding AG (the Company), which comprise the balance sheet as at December 31, 2025, and the profit and loss statement for the year then ended, and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies.
In our opinion, the accompanying financial statements comply with Swiss law and the Company’s articles of incorporation.
Basis for opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with Swiss law and Swiss Standards on Auditing (SA-CH). Our responsibilities under those provisions and standards are further described in the 'Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements' section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the provisions of Swiss law and the requirements of the Swiss audit profession that are relevant to audits of the financial statements of public interest entities. We have also fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Our audit approach
Materiality
The scope of our audit was influenced by our application of materiality. Our audit opinion aims to provide reasonable assurance that the financial statements are free from material misstatement. Misstatements may arise due to fraud or error. They are considered material if, individually or in aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of the financial statements.
Based on our professional judgement, we determined certain quantitative thresholds for materiality, including the overall materiality for the financial statements as a whole as set out in the table below. These, together with qualitative considerations, helped us to determine the scope of our audit and the nature, timing and extent of our audit procedures and to evaluate the effect of misstatements, both individually and in aggregate, on the financial statements as a whole.

Benchmark applied |
Total assets |
|
|
Rationale for the materiality benchmark applied |
We chose total assets as the benchmark, because, in our view, it is the benchmark against which the performance of the Company, which has limited operating activities and which mainly holds investments in subsidiaries and intra-group loans, is most commonly measured, and it is a generally accepted benchmark for holding companies. |
|
|
We agreed with the Audit Committee that we would report to them misstatements above CHF 520 thousand identified during our audit as well as any misstatements below that amount which, in our view, warranted reporting for qualitative reasons.
Audit scope
We designed our audit by determining materiality and assessing the risks of material misstatement in the financial statements. In particular, we considered where subjective judgements were made; for example, in respect of significant accounting estimates that involved making assumptions and considering future events that are inherently uncertain. As in all of our audits, we also addressed the risk of management override of internal controls, including among other matters consideration of whether there was evidence of bias that represented a risk of material misstatement due to fraud.
We tailored the scope of our audit in order to perform sufficient work to enable us to provide an opinion on the financial statements as a whole, taking into account the structure of the Company, the accounting processes and controls, and the industry in which the Company operates.
Key audit matters
We have determined that there are no key audit matters to communicate in our report.
Other information
The Board of Directors is responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the annual report, which has partially been made available to us with the 6-K and 20-F filings, (but does not include the financial statements and the consolidated financial statements and our auditor’s reports thereon), which we obtained prior to the date of this auditor’s report, and the full annual report, which is expected to be made available to us after that date.
Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.
2 Report of the statutory auditor to the General Meeting of Oculis Holding AG, Zug
If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.
Board of Directors’ responsibilities for the financial statements
The Board of Directors is responsible for the preparation of financial statements in accordance with the provisions of Swiss law and the Company’s articles of incorporation, and for such internal control as the Board of Directors determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, the Board of Directors is responsible for assessing the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the Board of Directors either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with Swiss law and SA-CH will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with Swiss law and SA-CH, we exercise professional judgement and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:
3 Report of the statutory auditor to the General Meeting of Oculis Holding AG, Zug
We communicate with the Board of Directors or its relevant committee regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.
We also provide the Board of Directors or its relevant committee with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and communicate with them regarding all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, actions taken to eliminate threats or safeguards applied.
From the matters communicated with the Board of Directors or its relevant committee, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.
Report on other legal and regulatory requirements
In accordance with article 728a para. 1 item 3 CO and PS-CH 890, we confirm the existence of an internal control system that has been designed, pursuant to the instructions of the Board of Directors, for the preparation of the financial statements.
Based on our audit according to article 728a para. 1 item 2 CO, we confirm that the Board of Directors' proposal complies with Swiss law and the Company’s articles of incorporation. We recommend that the financial statements submitted to you be approved.

2. SIGNIFICANT EVENTS IN THE CURRENT REPORTING PERIOD
Public Offerings of Ordinary Shares
February 2025 Offering
In February 2025, the Company closed an underwritten follow-on offering of 5,000,000 ordinary shares, CHF 0.01 nominal value per share, at a price of $20.00 (CHF 18.05) per share, for total gross proceeds of $100.0 million (CHF 90.2 million). New shares were issued out of the Company’s existing capital band.
November 2025 Offerings
On November 3, 2025, the Company closed offerings of an aggregate of 5,432,098 ordinary shares, CHF 0.01 nominal value per share, at a price of $20.25 (CHF 16.33) per share for total gross proceeds of $110.0 million (CHF 88.7 million), before deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses.

Loan Facility
On July 31, 2025, the Company entered into an amended and restated agreement for its existing loan facility (the “Amended Loan Agreement”) with Kreos Capital VII (UK) Limited (the “Lender”), which are funds and accounts managed by Blackrock, Inc. The Amended Loan Agreement replaces the prior loan agreement between the Company and the Lender dated May 29, 2024, with an upsized structure to provide the EUR equivalent of up to CHF 75.0 million in borrowing capacity (which may be increased to up to CHF 100.0 million) (the “Loan”), comprising tranches 1, 2 and 3, in the amounts of the EUR equivalents of CHF 25.0 million each, as well as an
3
additional loan of the EUR equivalent of up to CHF 25.0 million, which may be made available by the Lender to the Company if mutually agreed in writing by the Lender and the Company. No amounts were drawn under the Amended Loan Agreement during the year ended December 31, 2025. Pursuant to the Amended Loan Agreement, the Company is subject to a non-utilization fee of 0.75% per annum of any undrawn amount under tranches 1 and 2. Additionally, to the extent Loan 1 has not been drawn prior to its expiry date, an additional one-time fee of the EUR equivalent of CHF 2.6 million shall be payable, subject to certain conditions.
As additional consideration for the Loan, Kreos Capital VII Aggregator SCSp, an affiliate of the Lender (the “Holder”) and the Company entered into an amended warrant (the “Amended Blackrock Warrant”) to purchase up to 494,259 of the Company’s ordinary shares, subject to vesting, at a price per ordinary share equal to $12.17 (CHF 9.65) with respect to 361,011 shares from the prior warrant agreement, and $18.64 (CHF 14.78) with respect to the remaining 133,248 shares reflecting the upsized facility, subject to adjustment. The Amended Blackrock Warrant amends the prior warrant issued to Holder on May 29, 2024. As of the signing date, the Amended Blackrock Warrant is exercisable for 59,310 ordinary shares, of which 43,321 shares were previously granted. Following the drawdown of each of Loans 1, 2 and 3, the Amended Blackrock Warrant will become exercisable for additional amounts of ordinary shares ratably based on the amounts of Loans 1, 2 and 3 that are drawn. Each tranche of the Amended Blackrock Warrant in connection with Loans 1, 2 and 3, will be exercisable for a period of up to seven years from the date of vesting and the Amended Blackrock Warrant will terminate at the earliest of (i) December 31, 2033, (ii) such earlier date on which the Amended Blackrock Warrant is no longer exercisable for any warrant shares in accordance with its terms and (iii) the acceptance by the shareholders of the Company of a third-party bona fide offer for all outstanding shares of the Company (subject to any prior exercise by the Holder, if applicable). The Amended Blackrock Warrant had not been exercised in part or in full as of December 31, 2025. The Blackrock Warrant had not been exercised in part or in full as of December 31, 2025.
At-the-Market Offering Program
On May 8, 2024, the Company entered into a sales agreement with Leerink Partners, LLC (“Leerink Partners”) with respect to an at-the-market offering program (the “ATM Offering Program”) under which the Company may offer and sell, from time to time at its sole discretion, ordinary shares of the Company having an aggregate offering price of up to $100.0 million (CHF 79.3 million) through Leerink Partners as its sales agent. Any such sales, made through the sales agent, can be made by any method that is deemed an “at-the-market offering” as defined in Rule 415 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or in other transactions pursuant to an effective shelf registration statement on Form F-3. The Company agreed to pay Leerink Partners a commission of up to 3.0% of the gross proceeds of any sales of ordinary shares sold pursuant to the sales agreement. Following the execution of the agreement, the Company issued 1,000,000 ordinary shares during the year ended December 31, 2024 and 2,500,000 ordinary shares during the year ended December 31, 2025 out of its existing capital band, each with a nominal value of CHF 0.01 to be held as treasury shares.
On October 29, 2025, in conjunction with the November 2025 Underwritten Offering, the Company suspended the ATM Offering Program. The sales agreement with Leerink Partners remains in full force and effect. As of October 29, 2025, we had not sold any ordinary shares under the ATM Offering Program. Of the ordinary shares held as treasury shares, 2,796,297 were issued in connection with the November 2025 Offerings discussed below.
Registered Direct Offering and Nasdaq Iceland Main Market Listing
On April 22, 2024, the Company closed its registered direct offering with gross proceeds of CHF 53.5 million or $58.8 million through the issuance and sale of 5,000,000 of its ordinary shares, nominal value CHF 0.01 per share, at a purchase price of CHF 10.70 or $11.75 per share to investors (the “Registered Direct Offering”), and commenced trading of its ordinary shares on the Nasdaq Iceland Main Market under the ticker symbol “OCS” on April 23, 2024.

The Company received gross proceeds of CHF 97.6 million or $103.7 million comprising CHF 12.0 million or $12.8 million of cash held in EBAC’s trust account and CHF 85.6 million or $90.9 million from private placement (“PIPE”) investments and conversion of notes issued under Convertible Loan Agreements (“CLA”) into Oculis' ordinary shares.

3. BASIS OF PREPARATION AND ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of preparation
The statutory Financial Statements of Oculis, with registered office in Zug, Switzerland, were prepared according to the principles of the Swiss Law on Accounting and Financial Reporting (32nd title of the Swiss Code of Obligations). Where not prescribed by law, the significant accounting and valuation principles applied are described below.
Oculis is presenting its Consolidated Financial Statements according to IFRS (“IFRS Accounting Standards”). As a result, Oculis has applied the exemption included in art. 961d of the Swiss Code of Obligations and has not included additional disclosures and a cash flow statement in its Statutory Financial Statements.
Going concern
Oculis accounts are prepared on a going concern basis. To date, the Group has financed its cash requirements primarily from share issuances, as well as government research and development grants. The recent Registered Direct Offering and listing on the NASDAQ Iceland Main Market in April 2024, as well as the February and November 2025 follow-on offerings discussed in Note 2 raised funding to secure business continuity. The Board of Directors believes that cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments as of December 31, 2025, will be sufficient to fund the Group’s operations and capital expenditure requirements for at least the next 12 months.
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents are valued at nominal value.
Investments
Investments are initially recognized at cost, assessed annually for impairment triggers, and adjusted to their recoverable amount as needed.
Loans to group subsidiaries
Short and long term loans to Oculis Group subsidiaries are valued at nominal value under consideration of any impairment if needed.
Foreign currency
The Company's books are expressed in Swiss Francs (CHF). During the year, transactions denominated in foreign currencies are converted into Swiss Francs at the rate in effect at the transaction date. At year-end, assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are converted into Swiss Francs using the year-end exchange rates. Realized and unrealized exchange gains and losses are recorded net as financial income or financial expenses.
Warrants
Liabilities related to warrants are recorded at nominal value. Given warrants have no nominal or intrinsic value, these are not recognized in the statutory Financial Statements. The exercise of warrants by their holders does not lead to any cash outflows from the Company.
Earnout consideration
In accordance with the BCA (note 2), Legacy Oculis preferred, ordinary and option holders (collectively “equity holders”) received consideration in the form of 3,793,995 earnout shares and 369,737 earnout options with an exercise price of CHF 0.01. The earnout consideration is subject to forfeiture in the event of a failure to achieve the price targets during the earnout period defined as follows: (i) 1,500,000, (ii) 1,500,000 and (iii) 1,000,000 earned based on the achievement of post-acquisition volume weighted average share price targets (“VWAP”) of Oculis of CHF 11.89 or $15.00, CHF 15.86 or $20.00 and CHF 19.82 or $25.00, respectively, in each case, for any 20 trading days within any consecutive 30 trading day period commencing after the acquisition closing date and ending on or prior to March 2, 2028. A given share price target described above will also be deemed to be achieved if there is a change of control transaction, as defined in the BCA.
The earnout shares have been registered in the Registry of Commerce of the Canton of Zug and are included in the number of outstanding shares as of December 31, 2025. The earnout shares are recorded at nominal value. Upon meeting the criteria, Oculis would not further increase its reserve from capital contribution. The price targets of $15.00 or CHF 11.89, $20.00 or CHF 15.86 and $25.00 or CHF 19.82 were met in November 2024, February 2025 and February 2026, respectively, resulting in an aggregate of 2,845,446 earnout shares
5
vested and 159,453 earnout options outstanding and exercisable as of December 31, 2025, and an additional 948,549 earnout shares vested and 55,487 earnout options becoming exercisable in February 2026.
4. INCOME AND EXPENSES
(A) OTHER OPERATING EXPENSES
For the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company recorded CHF 20.5 million of other operating expenses, as compared to CHF 11.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The increase is primarily related to professional fees incurred related to the February 2025 and November 2025 Offerings.
