THERATECHNOLOGIES ANNOUNCES 1-FOR-4 REVERSE STOCK SPLIT

Theratechnologies Inc.'s board of directors approved a consolidation of the issued and outstanding common shares of the company's share capital on the basis of one postconsolidation share for each four preconsolidation shares issued and outstanding.

The Consolidation will be effective July 31, 2023, subject to applicable regulatory approvals, including the Toronto Stock Exchange (the "TSX") and the Nasdaq Stock Market ("NASDAQ"). No shareholder approval will be required for the Consolidation to come into effect. The Company expects its common shares will begin trading on the TSX and the NASDAQ on a consolidated basis on or about July 31, 2023.

No fractional common share will be issued in connection with the Consolidation and, in the event that a shareholder would otherwise be entitled to receive a fractional share upon such Consolidation, the number of common shares to be received by such shareholder will be rounded up (if the fraction is half a share or more) or down (if the fraction is less than half a share) to the nearest whole common share, provided that no shareholder shall hold less than a single common share as a result of the Consolidation. As at July 19, 2023, the Company had 96,807,309 common shares issued and outstanding, and the Company expects to have approximately 24,201,835 common shares issued and outstanding upon completion of the Consolidation.

Shareholders who hold their common shares electronically either in direct registered book-entry form via a direct registration system advice/statement ("DRS") with Computershare Trust Company of Canada ("Computershare"), the Company's transfer agent, or in "street name" through an intermediary like a bank, broker or other nominee, will not need to take any action as the Consolidation should automatically be reflected in the transfer agent's records and on such shareholders' next account statement. Intermediaries may have specific procedures for processing the Consolidation, including the treatment of fractional shares.

Shareholders holding paper stock certificates will be sent by Computershare a letter of transmittal which will enable them to exchange their old share certificates for a DRS representing the number of new post-Consolidation common shares they hold. Until surrendered, each stock certificate representing pre-Consolidation common shares will be deemed for all purposes to represent the number of whole post-Consolidation common shares to which the shareholder is entitled as a result of the Consolidation.

Rationale for the Consolidation

On March 7, 2023, the Company announced it had received a notification letter from the NASDAQ advising the Company that it was not in compliance with Listing Rule 5550(a)(2), as the bid price of the Company's common shares on the NASDAQ had closed at less than US$1.00 per share over the prior 30 consecutive business days (the "Minimum Bid Price Requirement"). In accordance with its Listing Rules, NASDAQ afforded the Company a 180-day period ending August 30, 2023, to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement.

The Consolidation is being implemented by the Company with the objective of increasing the trading price of its common shares and to allow the Company to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement of the NASDAQ and maintain a listing on the NASDAQ which accounts for a large part of the trading in the Company's common shares.

The Company anticipates that the Consolidation will have a neutral economic effect on shareholders and holders of securities convertible into or exercisable to acquire common shares or correlated with the price thereof, except to the extent the Consolidation will result in fractional common shares.

Proportionate adjustments will be made to the exercise price of outstanding stock options, warrants and other instruments linked to the common shares and the number of common shares underlying such options, warrants and equity-linked instruments to maintain the same economics associated with such instruments post-Consolidation.
