A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference.

No Offer or Solicitation

This document 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 jurisdiction in which the offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to the registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such jurisdiction. No offering of securities shall be made except by means of a prospectus meeting the requirements of Section 10 of the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

Additional Information and Where to Find It

This communication does not constitute an offer to buy or solicitation of an offer to sell any securities. This communication relates to a proposal that Mobix has made for a business combination transaction with Emcore. In furtherance of this proposal and subject to future developments, Mobix (and, if a negotiated transaction is agreed to, Emcore) may file one or more registration statements, proxy statements, tender offer statements or other documents with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). This communication is not a substitute for any proxy statement, registration statement, tender offer statement, prospectus or other document Mobix and/or Emcore may file with the SEC in connection with the proposed transaction. INVESTORS AND SECURITY HOLDERS OF MOBIX AND EMCORE ARE URGED TO READ THE PROXY STATEMENT(S), REGISTRATION STATEMENT, TENDER OFFER STATEMENT, PROSPECTUS AND/OR OTHER DOCUMENTS FILED WITH THE SEC CAREFULLY IN THEIR ENTIRETY IF AND WHEN THEY BECOME AVAILABLE AS THEY WILL CONTAIN IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT THE PROPOSED TRANSACTION. Any definitive proxy statement(s) or prospectus(es) (if and when available) will be mailed to stockholders of Mobix and/or Emcore, as applicable. Investors and security holders will be able to obtain free copies of these documents (if and when available) and other documents filed with the SEC by Mobix through the website maintained by the SEC at www.sec.gov, and by visiting Mobix’s investor relations site at https://investors.mobixlabs.com.

Participants in the Solicitation

This communication is neither a solicitation of a proxy nor a substitute for any proxy statement or other filings that may be made with the SEC. Nonetheless, Mobix and its directors and executive officers may be deemed to be participants in the solicitation of proxies in connection with the proposed transaction. Information about the directors and executive officers of Mobix is set forth in its amendment number 1 to the registration statement on Form S-1, which was filed with the SEC on August 26, 2024. These documents can be obtained free of charge from the sources indicated above. Additional information regarding the potential participants in the proxy solicitations and a description of their direct and indirect interests, by security holdings or otherwise, will be contained in one or more registration statements, proxy statements, tender offer statements or other documents filed with the SEC if and when they become available.
