AGM voting representation 29.35% of outstanding capital Shareholder votes represented this portion of capital at 2026 AGM
Audit period 2026 business year BDO SA re-elected as auditor for this period
Voting rights representative term Until 2027 AGM Robert P. Briner re-elected as independent voting rights representative
Equity interest in Neurosterix US Holdings LLC 20% equity interest Addex holds this stake in a private spin-out company
Financial year approved 2025 Annual report and financial statements for this year approved by shareholders
capital band financial
"approved the amendments of the Articles of Association related to the increase of the capital band"
Capital band is the target range a company or regulator sets for how much capital (equity or loss-absorbing resources) a business should hold relative to its size or risk. It acts like a financial buffer—enough to absorb shocks but not so much that cash sits idle—and helps investors gauge the likelihood of dividend cuts, equity raises, or constrained growth. Tight bands imply disciplined balance-sheet management; wide bands signal more flexibility.
conditional share capital financial
"approved the amendments of the Articles of Association related to the increase of the capital band and the conditional share capital"
Conditional share capital is a pool of extra shares a company is legally allowed to create only if specific events occur, such as holders of certain rights asking to exchange their claims for stock or pre-set triggers being met. It matters to investors because those shares can reduce each existing holder’s ownership and voting power and change earnings per share, much like adding new slices to a pizza changes the size of each person’s piece.
independent voting rights representative regulatory
"re-elected as the independent voting rights representative until the 2027 Annual General Meeting"
An independent voting rights representative is a neutral third party appointed to exercise or safeguard the voting power of shares when there may be a conflict of interest or uncertainty about how votes should be handled. Think of them as an impartial referee who makes sure ballots are counted fairly and that shareholders’ voting rights are protected; investors care because this role helps ensure votes on deals or governance changes are credible and that minority or disputed votes aren’t overridden.
allosteric modulators medical
"developing a portfolio of novel small molecule allosteric modulators for neurological disorders"
Allosteric modulators are molecules that bind to a spot on a protein that is separate from the protein’s main active site and change how strongly the protein responds to its normal signals—like a dimmer switch that adjusts light instead of turning it fully on or off. For investors, they matter because this approach can yield drugs that are more selective, have fewer side effects, and offer novel patentable mechanisms, which can improve clinical success and commercial value.
GABAB PAM medical
"Indivior, has selected a GABAB PAM drug candidate for development in substance use disorders"
consultative vote regulatory
"as well as the compensation report (the latter in a consultative vote)"
