Emyria Set to Launch First Sydney Clinic Following
Key Operational Milestones
Clinic on-track for opening in Q3 2026, with fit-out finalised, medication and
pharmaceutical partners secured, and first cohort of Authorised Prescribers and
therapists trained
Emyria Limited (ASX: EMD) (“Emyria”, or the “Company”), a leader in delivering evidence-
based intensive mental-health care, is pleased to announce that preparations for the opening
of its first Sydney clinic are progressing as planned, with the clinic on track to commence
operations in September 2026.
Significant operational milestones have now been completed ahead of opening. The
Company has recruited and trained ~20 Sydney-based therapists and 4 psychiatrists,
establishing the initial clinical team required to support the clinic’s launch.1
Two Sydney
psychiatrists have also obtained Authorised Prescriber status, while hospital, pharmacy,
medication supply and other key healthcare arrangements have now been secured.
The Sydney clinic will establish Emyria’s first presence in New South Wales and represents an
important step in the continued expansion of the Company’s national clinical network. With
operations already established across Queensland, Victoria and Western Australia, the New
South Wales clinic will extend Emyria’s treatment footprint into Australia’s most populous
state, providing increased access to specialist mental health care in one of the country’s largest
and most important healthcare markets.2
• Sydney clinic fit-out complete – four treatment rooms furnished and equipped ahead of
the planned September 2026 opening.
• Clinical team established ahead of launch – ~20 Sydney-based therapists and 4
psychiatrists recruited and trained, providing the initial clinical capacity for the new site.
• TGA endorsement of first 2 Sydney Authorised Prescribers – supporting Emyria’s ability
to commence treatments following opening.
• Medication supply and key healthcare partnerships secured – pharmacy and
pharmaceutical arrangements in place, alongside a formal agreement with Matilda
Nepean Private Hospital.
• First patients already approved for treatment – patients approved through the workers
compensation pathway are expected to commence treatment shortly after the clinic
opens.
• Sydney launch expands Emyria into Australia’s largest population market –
establishing the Company’s first NSW presence and broadening access to evidence-
based mental health treatments amid growing demand.

The clinic is now furnished and equipped, with four dedicated treatment rooms available to
support patient care. Importantly, the first patients have already been approved for treatment
through the workers compensation pathway and are expected to commence treatment
shortly following the clinic’s opening.
Planned clinic opening coinciding with growing demand for new evidence-based
therapies
The expansion of Emyria’s national clinic network comes at a time of increasing global interest,
clinical validation and investment in psychedelic-assisted therapies and other emerging
mental health treatments.
Growing policy support, pharmaceutical industry investment and broader institutional
interest continue to reinforce the potential role of psychedelic-assisted therapies within the
evolving mental health treatment landscape. Recent activity includes Eli Lilly’s acquisition of
AtaiBeckley for approximately $3.8 billion3
, Johnson & Johnson leading an $85 million
investment in Delix Therapeutics4
, and policy initiatives in the United States aimed at
accelerating access to emerging psychedelic-based treatments5
.
Together, these developments reflect increasing global recognition of the need for new
treatment options for patients who do not achieve adequate outcomes from conventional
therapies. Emyria’s expanding clinical network positions the Company to respond to this
demand in Australia while continuing to build the clinical infrastructure, practitioner network
and patient pathways required to support the delivery of evidence-based intensive mental
health treatments.
Executive Chairman Greg Hutchinson commented:
“We are delighted with the progress being made towards the opening of our first Sydney
clinic. With the fit-out complete, our initial clinical team trained, Authorised Prescribers in
place and key medication and healthcare partnerships secured, the operational foundations
required for launch are now substantially established.
“Sydney represents an important expansion of Emyria’s national footprint and provides the
Company with a presence in Australia’s largest population market. Importantly, it will create
a new pathway for patients across New South Wales seeking access to specialist and
evidence-based mental health treatments.

Risks associated with the use of MDMA, MDMA-inspired compounds and psilocybin
All medicines carry risks and specialist prescribers, such as registered psychiatrists, are best placed to assess
the suitability of a new medication against a patient’s individual circumstances and medical history before
proceeding. Adverse effects of MDMA include high blood pressure, increased pulse rate, faintness, and panic
attacks, and in some rare cases it can cause loss of consciousness or trigger seizures. Other side effects include
involuntary jaw clenching, decreased appetite, restless legs, nausea, headache, sweating and muscle/joint
stiffness. Adverse effects of psilocybin can include temporary increase in blood pressure and a raised heart rate.
There may be some risk of psychosis in predisposed individuals. The effects of MDMA and psilocybin are
unlikely at low doses in the treatment regimens used in psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy while
appropriately managed in a controlled environment with direct medical supervision. The risk profile of the
MDMA inspired compounds is currently unknown.
The availability of these products is subject to the safety and efficacy of the products being tested through
clinical trials. Emyria makes no representations or warranties as to the safety or efficacy of the products or the
products’ ability (or the ability of its key compounds) to be used in the treatment of indications such as PTSD.
There are currently no approved products containing MDMA, psilocybin or MDMA inspired compounds that
the TGA has evaluated for quality, safety and efficacy.
