DESCRIPTION OF THE BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Inotiv, Inc. and its subsidiaries (“we,” “our,” “us,” the “Company,” and “Inotiv”) comprise a leading contract research organization (“CRO”) dedicated to providing nonclinical and analytical drug discovery and development services primarily to the pharmaceutical and medical device industries and selling a range of research-quality animals and diets to the same industries as well as academia and government clients. Our products and services focus on bringing new drugs and medical devices through the discovery and preclinical phases of development, all while increasing efficiency, improving data, and reducing the cost of discovering and taking new drugs and medical devices to market. Inotiv is committed to supporting discovery and development objectives as well as helping researchers realize the full potential of their critical research and development projects, all while working together to build a healthier and safer world. We are dedicated to practicing high standards of laboratory animal care and welfare.

The Company reports its results in two segments: Discovery and Safety Assessment (“DSA”) and Research Models and Services (“RMS”).

Through our DSA segment, we provide discovery and translational sciences (“DTS”) and safety assessment services (including nonclinical development and, in certain cases, clinical development) to support the needs of researchers and clinicians for primarily small molecule drug candidates, as well as biotherapeutics and biomedical devices utilizing both Good Laboratory Practice (“GLP”) and non-GLP. Our scientists have skills in histology, pathology, physiology, surgery, analytical chemistry, drug metabolism, pharmacokinetics, and toxicology. Our principal clients range from small start-up biotechnology companies to some of the largest global pharmaceutical companies, whose scientists are engaged in analytical chemistry, drug safety evaluation, drug metabolism studies, pharmacokinetics, clinical trials, and basic research.

Through our RMS segment, we offer access to a wide range of purpose-bred animal research models for basic research and drug discovery and development, specialized models for specific diseases and therapeutic areas, and diet, bedding and enrichment products, all supported by our deep animal husbandry expertise. We have the ability to run selected nonclinical studies directly on-site at closely located research model facilities and provide access to innovative genetically engineered models and services solutions. Our principal clients include biopharmaceutical companies, CROs, and academic and government organizations.
