Inventiva Announces the Implementation of a New ATM
Program

Daix (France), New York City (New York, United States), October 14, 2025 – Inventiva (Euronext Paris and
Nasdaq : IVA) (“Inventiva” or the “Company”), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on the
development of oral therapies for the treatment of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis
(“MASH”) has filed today a shelf registration statement on Form F-3 (the “Registration Statement”) with the
Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The Registration Statement includes a base prospectus and a
sales agreement prospectus for a new At-The-Market (“ATM”) program, and allows the Company to issue
and sell, from time to time, "at-the-market", including to unsolicited investors who have expressed an
interest, ordinary shares in the form of American Depositary Shares (“ADS”). Each ADS represents one
ordinary share of Inventiva, for aggregate gross sales proceeds of up to $100 million (subject to a regulatory
limit of 30% dilution over a rolling period of 12 months and within the limits of investors' requests expressed
in the context of the program), pursuant to the terms of a new sales agreement entered into with Piper
Sandler & Co. (“Piper Sandler”), acting as sales agent.

The Company currently intends to use the net proceeds, if any, of sales of ADSs issued under the program to
finance the research and development of lanifibranor, working capital requirements and general corporate
purposes.

ADSs offered in the ATM and the underlying ordinary shares would be issued through a capital increase
without shareholders’ preferential subscription rights for an aggregate offering amount of up to $100 million,
it being specified that the maximum number of underlying ordinary shares to be admitted to trading on the
regulated market of Euronext Paris shall represent, over a rolling period of 12 months, less than 30% of the
ordinary shares already admitted to trading on said market without a French listing prospectus or an
exemption document as defined in Regulation (EU) 2017/1129 (the “Prospectus Regulation”). The new
ordinary shares to be sold in the form of ADSs would be issued in one or more offerings at the market price
of each offering of the ADSs at the time of pricing of the relevant capital increase.

Purchases of ADSs under the ATM Program are reserved to the categories of investors defined in the
27th resolution adopted by the annual general meeting of shareholders held on May 22, 2025 (or any or any
substitute resolutions thereto adopted at a subsequent shareholders’ meeting), comprising (i) natural or legal
persons (including companies) trusts or investment funds, or other investment vehicles, in any form,
established under French or foreign law, which regularly invest in the pharmaceutical, biotechnological or
medical technology sectors; and/or (ii) companies, institutions or entities, in any form, French or foreign,
exercising a significant part of its activities in the pharmaceutical, cosmetic or chemical sectors, or in medical
devices and/or technologies, or conducting research in such sectors.

Piper Sandler, as sales agent, will use commercially reasonable efforts to arrange, on the Company’s behalf,
for the sale of all ADSs requested to be sold by the Company, in accordance with its normal sales and trading
practices. Sales prices may vary based on market prices and other factors. Only eligible investors (as described
in greater detail above) may purchase ADSs under the ATM program. In any case, the corresponding sales
price of the new ordinary shares underlying the ADSs will not be less than (i) the volume-weighted average
price of the Company’s shares on the regulated market of Euronext in Paris over the last trading session
preceding the pricing or (ii) the volume-weighted average price of the Company’s shares on the regulated
market of Euronext in Paris calculated over a period of three to seven consecutive trading days, chosen
among the last 30 trading days preceding the pricing date, in each case subject to a maximum discount of
15%.

PRESS RELEASE



On an illustrative basis, assuming the issuance of the full amount of 21,691,973 ADSs at an assumed offering
price of $4.61 (or €3.98 1), the last reported sale price of the ADSs on the Nasdaq Global Market (“Nasdaq”)
on October 13, 2025, for the maximum gross proceeds of $100 million (or €86.4 million1) under the ATM
program, a holder of 1.0% of the outstanding Company's share capital as of September 30, 2025 would hold
0.87% of the outstanding Company's share capital after completion of the transaction (calculated on the basis
of the number of outstanding shares as of September 30, 2025).

During the term of the ATM program, the Company will include in the publication of its quarterly results
information about its use of the program during the preceding quarter and will also provide an update
following each capital increase on a dedicated location on its corporate website in order to inform investors
of the principal terms and outcomes of each issuance that may be completed under the ATM program from
time to time.

The new ordinary shares underlying the ADS will be admitted to trading on the regulated market of Euronext
in Paris and the issued ADSs will trade on Nasdaq.

The Registration Statement, including a base prospectus relating to Inventiva’s securities and a sales
agreement prospectus relating to the ATM program, was filed with the SEC, but has not yet become effective.
The securities referred to in the registration statement may not be sold, nor may offers to buy them be
accepted, prior to the time the registration statement becomes effective. Before purchasing ADSs in the
offering, prospective investors should read the Registration Statement, together with the documents
incorporated by reference therein. Prospective investors may obtain these documents free of charge by
visiting EDGAR on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. Alternatively, a copy of the Registration Statement may
be obtained from Piper Sandler & Co., Attention: Prospectus Department, 350 North 5th Street, Suite 1000,
Minneapolis, Minnesota 55401 or by email at prospectus@psc.com. No prospectus will be subject to the
approval (approbation) of the Autorité des Marchés Financiers (“AMF”) pursuant to the Prospectus
Regulation, nor will any exemption document be sent to the AMF since the contemplated share capital
increase (for the issuance of the ordinary shares underlying the ADS) would be offered to qualified investors
only (as defined in Article 2(e) of the Prospectus Regulation) and falls under the exemption provided for in
Article 1(5)(a) of the Prospectus Regulation, which states that the obligation to publish a prospectus shall not
apply to admission to trading on a regulated market of securities fungible with securities already admitted
to trading on the same regulated market, provided that they represent, over a period of 12 months, less than
30% of the number of securities already admitted to trading on the same regulated market.

This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities, nor
shall there be any sale of securities in any state or jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would
be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such state or jurisdiction. In
particular, no public offering of the ADSs will be made in Europe.
