–BUSINESS
ITEM 1 –BUSINESS As used in this Report, each of the terms "we," "us," "our," the "Company," and "Simulations Plus" refers to Simulations Plus, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries (both current and previous, as applicable). Simulations Plus, Inc. was incorporated in California on July 17, 1996. We are a global leader and premier provider in the biopharma sector, offering advanced software and consulting services that enhance drug discovery, development, research, clinical trial operations, regulatory submissions, and commercialization. With the June 2024 acquisition of Pro-ficiency Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, "Pro-ficiency"), the Company extended its reach across the drug development value chain from the initial protocol stage through all phases of clinical research and development ("R&D") to product commercialization. Simulations Plus now has a one-of-a-kind platform to serve its clients at every step in the drug development process. This optimizes efficiency, costs and time-to-market for our clients and enhances our competitive position. Our clients face many challenges. Developing new therapies is time-consuming and expensive, requiring an average of 10-15 years and an average cost of $6.16 billion to develop a single drug. Drug sponsors must prioritize not only efficacy of the drug, but also issues like drug-drug interactions, inclusion of diverse populations, regulatory approvals, reduction of animal testing, safety and compliance during clinical trials, and commercial success. Our model-informed drug development ("MIDD") software and services allow clients to use modeling and simulation to accelerate the drug development timeline, reduce the costs of R&D, comply with regulatory guidance and best practices, and increase confidence in the safety and efficacy of their drugs. Our adaptive learning solutions support the success of clinical trials by increasing the diversity and retention of participants and driving competency and compl
