Forward-Looking

Statements

This

press release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, as amended.

These statements may be identified by words such as “aims,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “could,”

“estimates,” “expects,” “forecasts,” “goal,” “intends,” “may,”

“plans,” “possible,” “potential,” “seeks,” “will,” and variations of these

words or similar expressions that are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Any such statements in this press release that

are not statements of historical fact may be deemed to be forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements include, without

limitation, statements regarding the expected timing of (i) our potential resumption and expected timing of initial safety data and topline

results for the Phase 1b trial for our ATR-12, (ii) the abstract detailing the Phase 1/2 clinical trial for our ATR-04 program, (iii)

our provision of initial safety data and topline results for the Phase 1/2 clinical trial for our ATR-04 program, (iv) statements about

our clinical and preclinical programs, and corporate and clinical/preclinical strategies, including our cosmeceutical strategy and our

recombinant protein platform, (v) the expected timing of our planned human cosmetic application study for ATR-COSF, and (vi) statements

regarding our strategy plans and priorities, including those outlined in our recent shareholder letter.

Any

forward-looking statements in this press release are based on current expectations, estimates and projections only as of the date of

this release and are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially and adversely

from those set forth in or implied by such forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to:

the timing of clinical trials and their results; we may experience delays in the provision of initial safety data and topline results

for ATR-COSF, our recombinant protein platform, ATR-12 and ATR-04 and, if we do, such data and results may not be favorably received;

the safety and efficacy of our product candidates; possible delays in regulatory approval or changes in regulatory framework that are

out of our control; our estimation of addressable markets of our product candidates may be inaccurate; we may fail to timely raise additional

required funding; more efficient competitors or more effective competing treatment may emerge; we may be involved in disputes surrounding

the use of our intellectual property crucial to our success; we may not be able to attract and retain key employees and qualified personnel;

earlier study results may not be predictive of later stage study outcomes; and we are dependent on third-parties for some or all aspects

of our product manufacturing, research and preclinical and clinical testing. Additional risks concerning Azitra’s programs and

operations are described or incorporated by reference in our annual report on Form 10-K filed with the United States Securities and Exchange

Commission (the “SEC”) on February 27, 2026 and our quarterly report on Form 10-Q filed on May 13, 2026 and August 12, 2026

with the SEC. Azitra explicitly disclaims any obligation to update any forward-looking statements except to the extent required by law.
