Explanatory Note

On January 13, 2025, Opthea Limited (the “Company”) posted an updated corporate presentation on the Company’s website. Investors may access the presentation by visiting the “Investor Relations” section of the Company’s website at ir.opthea.com.

In the corporate presentation, the Company announced that, based on current estimates, as of December 31, 2024, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of US$130 million. These estimates are preliminary, unaudited and are subject to change upon completion of the Company’s financial statement closing procedures. The review of the Company’s financial statements for the three months ended December 31, 2024 is ongoing and could result in changes to this amount. The Company’s registered public accounting firm has not audited, reviewed or performed any procedures with respect to these preliminary results and, accordingly, does not express an opinion or any other form of assurance about them.

The information contained in the corporate presentation is summary information that is intended to be considered in the context of the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Australian Securities Exchange, and other public announcements that the Company makes, by press release or otherwise, from time to time.
