ROVI Rocks!

Laboratorios Farmacéuticos Rovi, S.A. has been informed of the delay in the decision on the granting of marketing authorisation for Risperidone ISM® by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”). The FDA will be taking a number of actions, including an in-situ inspection of the European production plant where the product is manufactured, located in Madrid (Spain). The grant of the marketing authorisation for Risperidone ISM® by the FDA is subject to the result of this inspection.

The delay in the inspection of the manufacturing facilities has been caused by the restrictions on movement due to COVID-19 and, thus, the FDA has not yet fixed the inspection date.

ROVI filed the application for marketing authorisation for Risperidone ISM® with the FDA on 24 November, 2020. On 24 September, 2021, ROVI received a Complete Response Letter from the FDA with outstanding questions on the Risperidone ISM® dossier. The Company has either answered them or will be answering them in the near future since, in its letter, the FDA recognises that it did not review some of the responses submitted during the evaluation process. ROVI expects its responses to clarify the outstanding questions.

In the Complete Response Letter, the FDA states that, due to the exceptional situation caused by the pandemic which has prevented the inspection from taking place within

the term defined in the Filing Communication Letter, all the responses to outstanding questions will be evaluated in accordance with the timeline described in the “2020 Guidance for Industry Review Timelines for Applicant Reponses to Complete Response Letters When a Facility Assessment Is Needed During the COVID-19 Public Health Emergency”, with an estimated review time of 6 months as of the submission of the responses to the questions raised in the Complete Response Letter.

Risperidone ISM® is a novel, once-monthly, injectable antipsychotic, currently in the research phase, for the treatment of schizophrenia, developed and patented by ROVI. As of the first injection, it provides immediate and sustained plasma drug levels of the medicine, without the need for loading doses or supplementation with oral risperidone.

The Andalusian Minister of Health and Families, Jesús Aguirre Muñoz, took part in the informative act organised by the Granada newspaper Ideal and sponsored by Laboratorios Farmacéuticos ROVI. During his speech, the Minister reviewed the data on vaccination against covid-19 in the region, where more than 90% of those over 12 years of age have completed the vaccination schedule.

Aguirre Muñoz also reviewed his plans to strengthen the region’s healthcare services in the coming years, with a commitment to increasing investment in primary care, as well as the forecasts for the recruitment of healthcare professionals.

ROVI has obtained the 17th place in the Reporta Report and climbs five positions with respect to 2020 in this classification that assesses the quality of the information of 120 companies of the General Index of the Madrid Stock Exchange. With this, it takes the lead in the “Consumer goods” sector, ahead of Iberpapel (18th) and Inditex (20th)

This is a study carried out by the consulting firm DEVA and that each year assesses the quality of the companies’ annual integrated reports with respect to 36 indicators grouped into 4 principles: transparency, relevance, accessibility and commitment. Banco de Santander, Telefónica and Cie Automotive are the companies that lead this year’s ranking.

In the case of ROVI, it has gone from the 22nd position in 2020 to the 17th in 2021, which also makes it the pharmaceutical laboratory with the best scores, ahead of Grifols (30th), Prim (56th), Almirall (75th) and Pharma Mar (70th). The average score obtained by ROVI is 73.4 points, well above the average for the index, which stands at 46.7 points.

The internal flu vaccination campaign for all employees who wish to be vaccinated will take place between 25 October and 12 November 2021. Each employee will be assigned a specific vaccination schedule.

Why is it important to get a flu shot?

• The flu is an infectious respiratory disease caused by a virus. Flu viruses can cause mild or severe illness and can sometimes lead to death.
• Vaccination is the most effective strategy to reduce the chances of infection among the general population, with a special focus on risk groups.
• At ROVI we support this strategy of the authorities and we understand that, in the context of the current pandemic, it is essential to promote compliance with the vaccination objectives of the autonomous communities, reduce the risk of influenza contagion among the most vulnerable population and minimize the care burden of health resources.
