PRESS RELEASE


Adocia receives the Deloitte In Extenso Technology Fast 50 Prize in the 'Listed Company' category for the Grand Rhône- Alpes region


Lyon, France, November 18th, 2015 - Adocia (Euronext Paris: FR0011184241 - ADOC), a clinical-stage biotechnology company that specializes in the development of innovative formulations of already-approved therapeutic proteins, especially insulins for diabetes treatment, announces that it received the 'Listed Company' prize for the Grand Rhône-Alpes region during the 15th Deloitte In Extenso Technology Fast 50 event in Lyon.


The Technology Fast 50 program was founded in 1995 in San Jose, California, then extended to more than 40 countries. Every year, it promotes and recognizes companies combining technological innovation and fast growth.


Adocia was awarded the 'Listed Company' prize for the very strong increase of its annual turnover between the years 2011 and 2014. The year 2014 was marked by the 570 million dollars license agreement which grants Eli Lilly and Company worldwide rights on BioChaperone Lispro, the ultra-rapid insulin formulation developed by Adocia. This significant turnover increase was associated with a surge of Adocia share's value of more than 500% over the three years following its quotation.


'Two years after receiving the « Biotech d'Avenir Deloitte Technology Fast 50 » prize, our team can be very proud of this new mark of recognition.' comments Gérard Soula, Chief Executed Officer of Adocia. 'The 'Listed Company' prize rewards our innovation strategy, which aims to deliver more efficient, affordable therapeutic solutions for each population of diabetic patients.'
