comparison and processing. This strategic acquisition further bolsters the Company's standing in the rapidly advancing fields of multi-omics and in silico antibody discovery and development.
The Company continues to broaden its intellectual property portfolio in additional, meaningful ways, including internal R&D, acquisitions, and collaborations. There is also an emphasis on therapeutic antibody asset development in areas such as oncology, inflammation, neurodegenerative diseases, autoimmunity, and atherosclerosis.
STRATEGY AND OUTLOOK
The management team at MindWalk places a strong emphasis on initiatives designed to increase revenue, enhance internal assets, and maximize shareholder value. Central to the Company's mission is the aspiration to fundamentally transform the approach to biotherapeutic discovery and development. By integrating its advanced AI-driven software, LensAI, MindWalk aims to introduce a new paradigm that underscores accuracy, precision, speed, and cost-effectiveness, thereby changing how the world processes complex and disparate data.
One core component of MindWalk's strategy is the integration of LensAI's in silico capabilities into its services. LensAI adds high-through-put in silico analytical capabilities early in the discovery and development cycle, which enhances the Company's traditional wet lab services.
MindWalk's goal is to be the world's premier partner for complex AI-driven therapeutic antibody discovery and development, providing a rapid, integrated, accurate, data-driven, technologically advanced continuum of services. The Company works towards accelerating the transition of novel therapies from idea to the clinic by providing a bridge between highly accurate in silico predictions and wet lab validations. MindWalk's in silico tools, powered by LensAI, can predict potential targets, antibody binding characteristics, therapeutic developability, safety and tolerability, functional outcomes, and provide iterative feedback from wet lab experiments designed to refine these predictions and improve the accuracy of its AI models.
Pharmaceutical industry trends suggest an increasing reliance on external partners like MindWalk for expertise, cost-effectiveness, and rapid turnaround times. As a service provider with both wet lab and AI-driven in silico capabilities, management believes the Company aligns well with these industry needs.
The antibody discovery and development services sector, including CROs and specialized technology providers, is experiencing strong momentum. The market was valued at approximately US $8.3 billion in 2024 and is expected to grow at a 9 10% CAGR, more than doubling to around US $20 billion by 2034. This growth is driven by rising demand for outsourced expertise and advanced platforms that accelerate therapeutic pipelines.
In parallel, the global monoclonal antibody market continues its expansion. Valued at US $210 billion in 2022, it is projected to reach nearly US $495 billion by 2030 at an 11% CAGR, with some forecasts suggesting it could surpass US $900 billion by 2035. Monoclonal antibodies remain one of the largest and fastest-growing therapeutic categories, particularly in oncology, autoimmune, and infectious disease.
Artificial intelligence is now reshaping this landscape through SaaS-based drug discovery platforms. The AI in drug discovery market was estimated at roughly US $6.3 billion in 2024 and could grow to US $16.5 billion by 2034, while more aggressive forecasts see expansion to over US $35 billion. These platforms offer biopharma companies the ability to integrate predictive modeling, optimize candidate selection, and reduce R&D timelines.
Supporting all of these advances is the drug discovery informatics and data management market. Valued at around US $3.7 billion in 2024, it is forecast to grow at an ~11% CAGR to over US $7 billion by 2030, and as high as US $11 billion by 2034 in some estimates. This reflects the industry's growing recognition that scalable, integrated data systems are critical for translating laboratory insights into clinical breakthroughs.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED JULY 31, 2025 AND JULY 31, 2024
MindWalk is not simply following industry trends but is working to establish new standards in biotherapeutics research. The Company positions itself as a leader in AI-integrated discovery by combining proprietary in silico technologies with established wet-lab capabilities. This integrated model supports innovation and enhances the Company's ability to deliver comprehensive solutions across the drug discovery and development value chain.
AI for Drug Discovery
AI is increasingly becoming a critical enabler in drug discovery and development, supporting target identification, molecular design, and candidate screening at scale. Its ability to analyze complex biological datasets allows researchers to uncover disease mechanisms, establish biomarkers, and generate predictive models that improve the efficiency of R&D. The AI in drug discovery market was estimated at approximately US $6.3 billion in 2024 and is projected to reach more than US $16.5 billion by 2034, with some forecasts suggesting growth could exceed US $35 billion over the same period. This rapid expansion reflects the increasing reliance on AI to accelerate timelines, reduce costs, and improve the probability of success in drug development. Within this context, the Company's LensAI platform leverages proprietary methodologies to align with these industry trends, integrating AI-driven analysis with wet-lab validation to support comprehensive antibody discovery and development.
The acquisition of MindWalk in April 2022 marked a significant advancement for the Company. MindWalk brings its unique and proprietary HYFT technology that adds accuracy and transparency (explainability) to traditional AI approaches and algorithms, an extremely important feature, especially in the life sciences.
The Company's AI-driven software, LensAI, takes advantage of this technology. It enables the Company to extract the potential from data, discover connections between data, and pull new and valuable information from existing data. Furthermore, MindWalk's HYFT framework converts unstructured data into structured data, allowing for default feature reduction and efficient downstream analysis using advanced AI/ML techniques. The HYFT fingerprints create a link between sequences and literature analysis through a bottom-up Natural Language Processing approach, providing a universal syntax for the language of biology. This proprietary pattern and profile detection is crucial for understanding diseases and biological processes.
MindWalk's HYFT framework makes all accessible biological data rapidly computable. The technology developed by MindWalk offers a solution for omics (DNA, RNA, amino acids) data management, analysis, and storage, effectively addressing the current challenges and bottlenecks in bioinformatics. The integration of this technology with the LensAI platform results in an incredibly efficient system for managing and analyzing omics data. This combination of technologies is capable of processing huge tasks at high speed and scale, all while maintaining a light computational footprint.

MINDWALK HOLDINGS CORP.
MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED JULY 31, 2025 AND JULY 31, 2024
Fluctuations in operating expenses was driven primarily by research and development expenses and sales and marketing, while general and administrative expenses were essentially flat, as compared to the period ended July 31, 2024. R&D expenses decreased due to a reallocation of project-related R&D efforts to cost of sales, while sales and marketing increased due to advertising related to digital campaign expenses, as compared to the period ended July 31, 2024.
