ABVC BioPharma, Inc.. (NASDAQ: ABVC) ("ABVC" or the "Company") today announced that it has received a licensing payment of US$145,950 from OncoX BioPharma, Inc. ("OncoX") under the terms of the parties' global licensing agreement. With this latest payment, ABVC has collected a total of US$595,950 from OncoX in Q3 2025, contributing to the Company's total consolidated licensing revenues from all strategic partners of US$1,275,950 for the third quarter to date across multiple partnerships, including AiBtl BioPharma, ForSeeCon Eye Corporation, and OncoX.
Strong Financial Impact
The additional US$145,950 adds to ABVC's high-margin licensing revenue stream, which carries minimal incremental operating costs since development expenses were largely incurred in prior years. These licensing revenues directly strengthen ABVC's cash position and profitability profile.

Management Commentary
Dr. Uttam Patil, ABVC's Chief Executive Officer, stated:
"This US$145,950 licensing payment from OncoX brings our total OncoX receipts in Q3 to nearly US$600,000 and underscores the current strength and reliability of our licensing framework. With four IND-approved oncology assets already licensed from ABVC and ongoing efforts to expand its portfolio - including the anticipated acquisition of the Lycogen® lycopene platform - OncoX is positioning itself as a long-term value generator. These milestone revenues, which come with minimal incremental costs, directly contribute to enhancing ABVC's high-margin profile and long-term growth strategy."
