Company announcement February 28, 2024, at 4:00 p.m. GMT / 6:00 p.m. EET

TURKU, FINLAND / BOSTON, MA - February 28, 2024 - Faron Pharmaceuticals Oy (AIM: FARN, First North: FARON), a clinical stage biopharmaceutical company focused on tackling difficult-to-treat cancers and inflammation via precision immunotherapy, today announces an update to its financial reporting calendar for 2023, further to the announcement on December 22, 2023.

The Company's financial statement release for the full year 2023 and Annual Report 2023, including financial statements for the full year, will now be published on March 13, 2024, at 2:00 a.m. EST / 07:00 a.m. GMT / 09:00 a.m. EET, rather than on Thursday, February 29, 2024, as had been previously communicated.

The publication date of Tuesday, August 27, 2024, for Faron's half-year financial report for the period January 1 to June 30, 2024, remains unchanged. The Company's Annual General Meeting is planned to be convened on Friday, April 5, 2024.
