Simulations Plus, Inc. Simulation and modeling software for pharmaceutical research-ADMET Predictor™/ADMET Modeler™-ClassPharmer™-DDDPlus™-GastroPlus™Consulting services to the pharmaceutical industry
4

ADMET PredictorTM Predicts numerous properties of molecules from just their structures, including physicochemical properties and several toxicities•Ranked #1 in accuracy in two independent studies for predicting solubility and logP•Again ranked #1 for logP predictions in German study in January 2007•Strategy going forward:-Expand number of predictions (Salmonella mutagenicity to be released) - SBIR grant ($100K) to improve descriptors used in models - will improve almost all - New release in the coming weeks
5

ADMET ModelerTM •Integrated with ADMET Predictor -provides complete modeling/prediction capability -used to •Speedand model qualityunsurpassed -contract studies have shown ability to find useful models from user data (including activity) when others have failed•Strategy going forward:-Keep up with state-of-the-art in machine learning methods-Further improve user interface and convenience features - May develop stand-alone product for general modeling use 
6

ClassPharmerTM •Merge of two products acquired in 2005 -New product is dramatically faster, more flexible, and can process much larger chemical libraries•Can help chemists identify what it is about molecular structuresthat cause good or bad properties -finds “maximum common substructures” in classes -proprietary algorithms•Strategy going forward:-R-Table Exploder released during 3rdquarter -new capabilities for chemical reactions -Tighter integration with ADMET Predictor -each promotes sales of the other-New release in the coming weeks
7

DDDPlusTM •Sales continue to come in -industry is learning how to use this unique tool•Strategy going forward:-Continue aggressive marketing and sales activities•Educate formulation scientists on how to use simulation in theirwork•Emphasize compatibility with GastroPlus for formulation studies-Hold further major developments in favor of other development activities
8

GastroPlusTM •The industry’s Gold Standard -most advanced and widely used simulation of oral absorption/pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics•Strategy going forward:-Ongoing effort to push the state-of-the-art in PBPK modeling is producing excellent results-New features added, including the ability to call ADMET Predictor directly-New release in the coming weeks-Continue extending product capabilities:•Drug-drug interaction•Metabolite tracking
9

Consulting Contracts •Growing part of business -Simulation studies •Troubleshooting problem compounds •Virtual bioequivalence trials •Design of new oral dosage formulations -Structure-property modeling •Generates leads for software licenses •Identifies unmet needs for software improvements •Increases our knowledge base and expertise -Exposure to unusual compound behaviors •Builds rapport and confidence not only with customers’ scientists, but also with their management
10

Core Capabilities and Strengths -Growing team of exceptional scientists and engineers•Chemistry, biochemistry, molecular biology•Chemical engineering, biomedical engineering•Computer science•Augmentative communication (Words+ subsidiary)-Recognized world-class expertise in oral drug delivery, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics-Large scale system simulations-Applied numerical simulation/optimization methods to multidimensional nonlinear problems-High quality, rapid structure-property modeling-Marketing and salesto a highly technical global market-Strong relationships with pharmaceutical scientists in industry,government, and academia
