FISCAL YEAR 2022 OUTLOOK

Samsung Biologics' Plant 4 construction is expected to be partially operational by October 2022 to support 6 X 10KL production capacity. Upon its full completion in mid-2023—six months ahead of schedule—the combined capacity of all plants is expected to total 620KL,the world's largest biomanufacturing capacity at a single site.

As part of its future growth plan,the company is also in the process of securing an additional 350,000m² of land for its second Bio Campus,which will be 30% larger than the size of the current site.

Alongside our focus on growth and expansion,Samsung Biologics will continue to prioritize its ESG commitments by investing in practices and technologies that will reduce and potentially eliminate GHG emissions,while participating in various climate change initiatives,such as the Sustainable Markets Initiative,in the lead up to COP27.

Samsung Biologics will also be closely monitoring,identifying,and providing data for each of its biopharmaceutical manufacturing plants through its Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP) initiative with Task Force on Climate-Related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) to determine risks and opportunities on climate change as well as the financial impact to translate these data into actions.
