NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.CORPORATE INFORMATION

Oculis Holding AG (“the Company” or “Oculis”) is a stock corporation (“Aktiengesellschaft”) with its registered office at Bahnhofstrasse 7, CH-6300, Zug, Switzerland. It was incorporated under the laws of Switzerland on October 31, 2022.

The Company controls six wholly-owned subsidiaries: Oculis Operations GmbH ("Oculis Operations") with its registered office in Lausanne, Switzerland, which was incorporated in Zug, Switzerland on December 27, 2022, Oculis ehf (“Oculis Iceland”), which was incorporated in Reykjavik, Iceland on October 28, 2003, Oculis France Sàrl (“Oculis France”) which was incorporated in Paris, France on March 27, 2020, Oculis US, Inc. (“Oculis US”), which was incorporated in Delaware, USA, on May 26, 2020, Oculis HK, Limited (“Oculis HK”) which was incorporated in Hong Kong, China on June 1, 2021 and Oculis Merger Sub II Company (“Merger Sub 2") which was incorporated in the Cayman Islands on January 3, 2023. The Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries form the Oculis Group (the “Group”). Prior to the Business Combination (as defined in Note 2), Oculis SA ("Legacy Oculis"), which was incorporated in Lausanne Switzerland on December 11, 2017, and its wholly-owned subsidiaries Oculis Iceland, Oculis France, Oculis US and Oculis HK formed the Oculis group. On July 6, 2023, Legacy Oculis merged with and into Oculis Operations, and the separate corporate existence of Legacy Oculis ceased. Oculis Operations is the surviving company and remains a wholly-owned subsidiary of Oculis.

The purpose of the Company is the research, study, development, manufacture, promotion, sale and marketing of biopharmaceutical products and substances as well as the purchase, sale and exploitation of intellectual property rights, such as patents and licenses, in the field of ophthalmology. As a global biopharmaceutical company, Oculis is developing treatments to save sight and improve eye care with breakthrough innovations. The Company’s differentiated pipeline includes candidates for topical retinal treatments, topical biologics and disease modifying treatments.

2.SIGNIFICANT CHANGES IN THE CURRENT REPORTING PERIOD

Business combination with European Biotech Acquisition Corp (“EBAC”)

On March 2, 2023, the Company consummated a business combination with EBAC (the “Business Combination”) pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement ("BCA") between Legacy Oculis and EBAC dated as of October 17, 2022. 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. In connection with the Business Combination, Oculis was listed on the Nasdaq Global Market with the ticker symbol "OCS" for its ordinary shares and “OCSAW” for its public warrants.

Under the terms of the BCA, EBAC formed four new legal entities (i) Oculis, (ii) Oculis Merger Sub I Company ("Merger Sub 1"), (iii) Merger Sub 2, and (iv) Oculis Operations. After two consecutive mergers between Merger Sub 1 and EBAC, and EBAC and Merger Sub 2, EBAC and Merger Sub 1 ceased to exist and Merger Sub 2 was the surviving company. During the third quarter of 2023, the Company gave effect in its financial statements to the impending dissolution of Merger Sub 2, which is expected to be completed in the coming months. As a result, the cumulative translation adjustments related to Merger Sub 2 previously reported as equity and recognized in other comprehensive income, were reclassified from equity to the Condensed Consolidated Interim Statement of Loss for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023. The resulting foreign exchange impact of such reclassification amounted to CHF 5.0 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023.

As a result of the BCA and as of the acquisition closing date on March 2, 2023:

•Each issued and outstanding share of EBAC Class A ordinary shares (including those held by the PIPE investors) and share of EBAC class B ordinary shares were converted into one ordinary share of Oculis.

•Each issued and outstanding EBAC public warrant and EBAC private placement warrant ceased to be a warrant with respect to EBAC ordinary shares and were assumed by Oculis as warrants with respect to ordinary shares on substantially the same terms.

•Each issued and outstanding ordinary share and preferred share of Legacy Oculis before the closing of the Business Combination were converted into ordinary shares of Oculis at the then effective exchange ratios determined in accordance with the BCA and giving effect to the accumulated preferred dividends.

•Oculis assumed the CLAs and the investors exercised their conversion rights in exchange for ordinary shares of Oculis at CHF 9.42 or $10.00 per ordinary share, on the same terms as the PIPE investors.

•All outstanding and unexercised options to purchase Legacy Oculis ordinary shares were assumed by Oculis and each option was replaced by an option to purchase ordinary shares of Oculis (the “Converted Options”) and additional earnout options. The Converted Options continue to be subject to substantially the same terms and conditions except that the number of ordinary shares of Oculis issuable and related exercise prices were adjusted by the effective exchange ratio with all other terms remaining unchanged.

8

•The redemption of 11,505,684 shares of EBAC Class A ordinary shares resulted in a reduction of CHF 110.7 million or $117.5 million in cash and cash equivalents in the EBAC trust prior to the consummation of the transactions at a redemption price of approximately CHF 9.62 or $10.21 per share. The proceeds from non-redeemed shareholders amounted to CHF 12.0 million or $12.8 million.

•The EBAC sponsor forfeited 727,096 shares of EBAC Class B ordinary shares upon signing the BCA and an additional 795,316 shares of EBAC Class B ordinary shares as a result of the level of redemptions by EBAC public shareholders. The fair value of the total forfeited shares as of the acquisition closing date of March 2, 2023 was CHF 16.0 million.

PIPE and CLA financing

In connection with the BCA, EBAC entered into subscription agreements with the PIPE investors for an aggregate of 7,118,891 shares of EBAC Class A ordinary shares at CHF 9.42 or $10.00 per share for aggregate gross proceeds of CHF 67.1 million or $71.2 million.

In connection with the BCA, Legacy Oculis and the investor parties thereto entered into CLAs pursuant to which the investor lenders granted Legacy Oculis a right to receive an interest free convertible loan with certain conversion rights with substantially the same terms as the PIPE investors. Following the mergers, Oculis assumed the CLAs and the lenders exercised their conversion rights in exchange for 1,967,000 ordinary shares at CHF 9.42 or $10.00 per share for aggregate gross proceeds of CHF 18.5 million or $19.7 million.

Together, the PIPE and CLA financing resulted in aggregate gross cash proceeds of CHF 85.6 million or $90.9 million to Oculis in exchange for 9,085,891 ordinary shares.

Merger and listing expense

The Business Combination is accounted for as a capital re-organization. As EBAC does not meet the definition of a business in accordance with IFRS 3 Business Combinations, the BCA is accounted for within the scope of IFRS 2 Share-based Payment.

The Business Combination is treated as the equivalent of the Company issuing shares for the net assets of EBAC as of the acquisition closing date, accompanied by a recapitalization. The net assets of EBAC are stated at historical cost, with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded. Any excess of the fair value of the Company’s shares issued considering a fair value of CHF 10.54 or $11.19 per share (price of EBAC ordinary share at the closing date) over the fair value of EBAC’s identifiable net assets acquired represents compensation for the service of a stock exchange listing for its shares.

This expense was incurred in the first quarter of 2023 and amounted to CHF 34.9 million, which was expensed to the statement of loss as operating expenses, “Merger and listing expense”. The expense is non-recurring in nature and represents a share-based payment made in exchange for a listing service and does not lead to any cash outflows.

Earnout consideration

As a result of the BCA, 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 closing share price targets of Oculis of $15.00, $20.00 and $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 (the “Earnout period”). A given share price target described above will also be deemed to be achieved if there is a change of control, as defined in the BCA, transaction of Oculis during the earnout period.

Public offering of ordinary shares

On May 31, 2023, the Company entered into an underwriting agreement with BofA Securities Inc. and SVB Securities, LLC, as representatives of several underwriters, and on June 5, 2023, closed the issuance and sale in a public offering of 3,500,000 ordinary shares at a public offering price of CHF 10.45 or $11.50 per share, for total gross proceeds of CHF 36.6 million or $40.3 million before deducting underwriting discounts, commissions and offering expenses.

10

In addition, the Company granted the underwriters an option to purchase additional ordinary shares which was partially exercised on June 13, 2023, leading to an additional purchase of 154,234 ordinary shares and gross proceeds of CHF 1.6 million or $1.7 million before deducting underwriting discounts, commissions and offering expenses. After giving issuance to these additional shares, Oculis sold a total of 3,654,234 ordinary shares in the offering for aggregate gross proceeds of CHF 38.2 million or $42.0 million, before deducting underwriting discounts, commissions and offering expenses. All of the underwriters' unexercised options to purchase additional shares expired on June 30, 2023.

The Company intends to use the net proceeds from this offering, together with its existing resources, to advance its development programs in particular Diabetic Macular Edema and for other ophthalmic indications, and for working capital and general corporate purposes.

3.BASIS OF PREPARATION AND CHANGES TO THE GROUP’S ACCOUNTING POLICIES

(A)Going concern

The Group's accounts are prepared on a going concern basis. The Board of Directors believes that with the proceeds from the recent Business Combination and additional public offering (refer to Note 2), the Group has the ability to meet its financial obligations for at least the next 12 months.

The Company is a clinical stage company and is exposed to all the risks inherent to establishing a business. Inherent to the Company’s business are various risks and uncertainties, including the substantial uncertainty as to whether current projects will succeed. The Company’s success may depend in part upon its ability to (i) establish and maintain a strong patent position and protection, (ii) enter into collaborations with partners in the biotech and pharmaceutical industry, (iii) successfully move its product candidates through clinical and regulatory development, and (iv) attract and retain key personnel. The Company’s success is subject to its ability to be able to raise capital to support its operations. Shareholders should note that the long-term viability of the Company is dependent on its ability to raise additional capital to finance its future operations. The Company will continue to evaluate additional funding through public or private financings, debt financing or collaboration agreements. The Company cannot be certain that additional funding will be available on acceptable terms, or at all. If the Company is unable to raise additional capital when required or on acceptable terms, it may have to (i) significantly delay, scale back or discontinue the development of one or more product candidates; (ii) seek collaborators for product candidates at an earlier stage than otherwise would be desirable and on terms that are less favorable than might otherwise be available; or (iii) relinquish or otherwise dispose of rights to product candidates that the Company would otherwise seek to develop itself, on unfavorable terms.

(B)Statement of compliance

These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements as of September 30, 2023 and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34 (IAS 34), Interim Financial Reporting. They do not include all of the information required for a complete set of financial statements prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”). In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements present a fair statement of its financial information for the interim periods reported.

Prior to consummation of the Business Combination on March 2, 2023, the audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2022 were issued for Legacy Oculis and its subsidiaries. Legacy Oculis became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company as a result of the Business Combination. As the operations of the Company are that of its subsidiary Legacy Oculis, these unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with that of the audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2022 issued for Legacy Oculis and its subsidiaries and included in Form 20-F filed with the U.S. Securities Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 28, 2023.

In accordance with the BCA and described in Note 2, Oculis issued 3,780,399 ordinary shares to Legacy Oculis shareholders in exchange for 3,306,771 Legacy Oculis ordinary shares (after cancellation of 100,000 Legacy Oculis treasury shares) at the Exchange Ratio. The number of ordinary shares, and the number of ordinary shares within the net income (loss) per share held by the shareholders prior to the Business Combination have been adjusted by the Exchange Ratio to reflect the equivalent number of ordinary shares in the Company.

Reclassifications: Certain amounts in the comparative financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation.

(C)Functional currency

The interim condensed consolidated financial statements of the Group are expressed in Swiss Francs (“CHF”), which is the Company’s functional and the Group’s presentation currency. The functional currency of the Company's subsidiaries is the local currency except for Oculis Iceland whose functional currency is CHF.

Assets and liabilities of foreign operations are translated into CHF at the rate of exchange prevailing at the reporting date and their statements of profit or loss are translated at average exchange rates. The exchange differences arising on translation for consolidation are recognized in other comprehensive income.

4.SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, CRITICAL JUDGMENTS AND ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

(A)Significant accounting policies

Except as described below, there have been no material changes to the significant accounting policies that have been applied by the Group in its audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2022, included in Form 20-F filed with the SEC on March 28, 2023 and available at www.sec.gov.

•Fair value measurements

The Company measures certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value on a recurring basis, including warrants. Fair value is the price the Company would receive to sell an asset or pay to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction with a market participant at the measurement date. The Company uses a three-level hierarchy that prioritizes fair value measurements based on the types of inputs used, as follows:

•Level 1: quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

•Level 2: either directly or indirectly, quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets.

•Level 3: unobservable inputs for the asset or liability to the extent that observable inputs are not available in situations in which there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability at the measurement date.

There was no change in the valuation techniques applied to financial instruments during all periods presented. There were no transfers between levels 1, 2 or 3 for recurring fair value measurements during the year. The Group recognizes transfers into and out of fair value hierarchy levels at the end of the reporting period.

•Cash and cash equivalents and short-term financial assets

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of less than 3 months at the date of purchase to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents are recorded at cost, which approximates fair value.

Short-term financial assets consist of fixed term bank deposits with maturities between three and six months. Short-term financial assets are held in order to collect contractual cash flows made of payments of principal and interests. Short-term financial assets are measured at amortized cost (approximates fair value) and are subsequently measured using the effective interest method. This method allocates interest income over the relevant period by applying the effective interest rate to the carrying amount of the asset. Gains and losses are recognized in the unaudited condensed consolidated interim statements of loss when the asset is derecognized, modified or impaired.

•Warrant liabilities

The Company recognizes the warrant instruments as liabilities at fair value and adjusts the instruments to fair value at each reporting period. Any change in fair value is recognized in the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated interim statements of loss. The fair value of the public warrants traded in active markets is based on the quoted market prices at the end of the reporting period for such warrants. Since the private placement warrants have identical terms to the public warrants, the Company determined that the fair value of each private placement warrant is equivalent to that of each public warrant. Public warrant instruments are included in Level 1 and private warrants in Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.

Warrants were classified as short term liabilities given the Company cannot defer the settlement for at least 12 months.

•Earnout consideration

The Company recognizes the earnout consideration as a share-based contingent consideration within the scope of IFRS 2, and therefore equity classified as the earnout consideration ultimately settles in ordinary shares. The Company has determined that the fair value of the earnout shares should be accounted for as a component of the deemed cost of the listing services upon consummation of the Business Combination. The fair value of total consideration transferred included in the calculation of the IFRS 2 share listing service expense will not be subsequently adjusted regardless of whether the price target is achieved or not. The earnout options granted to employees were determined to be compensation for the dilution to their previously held Legacy Oculis equity instruments. No additional compensation charge is recognized under IFRS 2 because no additional fair value was granted as a result of the earnout options.

(B)Critical judgments and accounting estimates

In preparing these unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements, the critical accounting estimates, assumptions and judgments made by management in applying the Company’s accounting policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those applied and discussed in the audited consolidated financial statements for the financial year ended December 31, 2022, except for the ones listed below which are related to the Business Combination.

12

The areas where Oculis makes judgments, estimates and assumptions are related to (i) impairment of intangible assets, (ii) deferred income taxes, (iii) pension benefits and (iv) share-based compensation. Actual results may differ from these estimates. Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. In relation to the Business Combination, the following critical estimates and judgments were made:

•Determining the accounting acquirer in the Business Combination

Despite EBAC being the legal acquirer, Legacy Oculis was determined to be the accounting acquirer for financial reporting purposes. This determination is primarily based on the fact that subsequent to the Business Combination, i) the shareholders of Legacy Oculis have a majority of the voting interest in the combined company; ii) Legacy Oculis’ operations comprise all of the ongoing operations of the combined company; and iii) Legacy Oculis’ management comprise all of the senior management of the combined company.

•Business Combination accounted for within the scope of IFRS 2

EBAC was a Special Purpose Acquisition Company and therefore does not meet the definition of a business under IFRS 3 as it has no operations and the related BCA cannot be treated as a business combination. The Business Combination was accounted for as a continuation of Legacy Oculis financial statements with a deemed issuance of shares by the Company accompanied by a recapitalization of the Company’s equity. The excess of fair value of the shares deemed issued by the Company over EBAC’s identifiable net assets has been recorded as share-based payment expense in accordance with IFRS 2 and represents a public listing service received by the Company.

•Capitalized transaction costs

Legacy Oculis and EBAC incurred costs such as legal, accounting, auditing, printer fees and other professional fees directly related to the Business Combination (“Transaction costs”). Transaction costs directly associated with equity issuance qualify for capitalization and are accounted for as a deduction of share premium. To capture costs associated with the new equity, the Company allocated capitalizable transaction costs to the various transaction components (equity issuance and listing) at the percentages of 38% and 62% for new shares and old shares, respectively.

(C)Accounting policies, new standards, interpretations, and amendments adopted by the Group

There are no new IFRS standards, amendments to standards or interpretations that are mandatory for the financial year beginning on January 1, 2023, that are relevant to the Group and that have had any impact in the interim period. New standards, amendments to standards and interpretations that are not yet effective, which have been deemed by the Group as currently not relevant, are not listed here.

5.SEGMENT INFORMATION

The Company is managed and operated as one business. A single management team that reports to the Chief Executive Officer comprehensively manages the entire business and accordingly, the Company has one reporting segment.

The aid in Iceland is granted as a reimbursement of paid income tax or paid out in cash when the tax credit is higher than the calculated income tax. The tax credit is subject to companies having a research project approved as eligible for tax credit by the Icelandic Centre for Research (Rannís).

9.SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION

2023 Employee Stock Option and Incentive Plan

On March 2, 2023, the Company adopted a new 2023 Employee Stock Option and Incentive Plan (“2023 ESOP”) which allows for the grant of equity incentives, including share-based options, stock appreciation rights (“SARs”), restricted shares and other awards. The 2023 ESOP lays out the details for the equity incentives for talent acquisition and retention purposes.

Each grant of share-based options made under the 2023 ESOP entitles the grantee to acquire from the Company ordinary shares with payment in cash of the exercise price. In the case of SARs, the intention of the Company is settling in equity. For each grant of share-based options or SARs, the Company issues a grant notice, which details the terms of the options or SARs, including number of shares, exercise price, vesting conditions and expiration date. The terms of each grant are set by the Board of Directors.

The 2023 ESOP reflects the revised capital structure of the Company following completion of the Business Combination. As a result, all option holders holding options under the prior 2018 Employee Stock Option and Incentive Plan ("2018 ESOP") prior to the close of the Business Combination exchanged their options held in Legacy Oculis for newly issued options in the Company in accordance with the Exchange Ratio. The comparative fair value calculation of options using the Black-Scholes model before and after the merger concluded there was no significant change in value. The exchange of equity awards under the 2018 ESOP for equity awards under the 2023 ESOP was determined to be a modification in accordance with IFRS 2 – Share-based payment. The Group will continue to record the related expense per the original valuation and vesting period without incremental charges.

Option awards and SARs

The fair value of option awards and SARs is determined using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The weighted average fair value at grant date of the 2023 ESOP awards granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was CHF 5.06 or $5.50 per share. The weighted average fair value at grant date of the awards granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was CHF 1.90 or $2.00 per share.

The following weighted average assumptions were used in the Black-Scholes option pricing model for determining the value of options granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2023:

	For the nine months ended September 30, 2023
Average share price at the date of grant (1)	USD 8.28 (CHF 7.62)
Expected volatility (%) (2)		69.99
Expected term (years) (3)	6.25
Risk-free interest rate (%) (1)(4)		3.60
Dividend yield (%)		0.00

(1) Following the NASDAQ listing, the equity award exercise price is now denominated in USD and the applicable risk-free interest rate has been adjusted accordingly.

(2) The expected volatility was derived from the historical stock volatilities of comparable peer public companies within the Company’s industry.

(3) The expected term represents the period that share-based awards are expected to be outstanding.

(4) The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the measurement date with maturities approximately equal to the expected term.

15

The following table summarizes the Company’s stock option and SAR activity under the 2023 ESOP for the following periods:

	For the nine months ended September 30, 2023			For the nine months ended September 30, 2022
(Number of shares)	Number of options (1)	Weighted average exercise price (1) (CHF)	Range of expiration dates	Number of options (1)	Weighted average exercise price (1) (CHF)	Range of expiration dates
Outstanding as of January 1,	1,762,949	2.27	2027-2031	1,289,090	2.05	2026-2030
Granted	1,732,765	7.62	2033	629,295	2.98	2031
Earnout options granted	369,737	0.01	2028	-	-	-
Forfeited	(32,570)	1.72	2033	(92,515)	2.10	2026-2030

Outstanding as of September 30,	3,771,729	4.51	2027-2033	1,764,707	2.39	2026-2031

(1) Retroactive application of the recapitalization effect due to the BCA, the Exchange Ratio was applied to the number of options and the weighted average exercise price was divided by the same exchange ratio.

The number of options which were exercisable at September 30, 2023 was 1,131,286.

Restricted shares awards

Each restricted share granted under the 2018 ESOP was immediately exercised and the expense was recorded at grant date in full. The Company is holding call options to repurchase shares diminishing ratably on a monthly basis over three years from grant date. For each grant of restricted share award, the Company issues a grant notice, which details the terms of the grant, including the number of awards, repurchase right start date and expiration date. The terms of each grant are set by the Board of Directors. Restricted shares are granted and expensed at fair value. No restricted shares were awarded under the 2023 ESOP during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022. As of September 30, 2023, 1,052,054 restricted shares were not subject to repurchase out of total 1,186,932 restricted shares exercised, compared to 934,019 as of December 31, 2022.

Share-based compensation expense

The total expense recognized in the statement of loss for share options granted amounted to CHF 1,200 thousand and CHF 2,566 thousand for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively, and CHF 195 thousand and CHF 659 thousand for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively. The reserve for share-based payment increased from CHF 2,771 thousand as of December 31, 2022 to CHF 5,337 thousand as of September 30, 2023. Refer to Note 7.

Earnout options

As a result of the BCA, 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. As of September 30, 2023 the price targets had not yet been achieved. Refer to Note 2.
