Altai Capital Management Nominates Two Highly-Qualified Candidates for Election to OraSure Board of Directors

Reiterates Urgent Need for Change to Address Company's Failure to Deliver Value to Shareholders

Los Angeles, CA, - Jan. 15, 2026 -- Altai Capital Management, L.P. ("Altai"), one of the largest shareholders and beneficial owners of approximately 5.2% of the outstanding common stock of OraSure Technologies, Inc. ("OraSure" or the "Company") (NASDAQ: OSUR), today announced that it has nominated two highly-qualified candidates, John Bertrand, Co-Founder of Digital Diagnostics, and Rishi Bajaj, President and CIO of Altai, for election to the OraSure Board of Directors (the "Board") at the 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.

The nomination follows Altai's December 17 letter to the Board outlining its serious concerns about the Company's significant share price underperformance driven by poor strategic and capital allocation decisions by management and the Board's refusal to consider alternative strategies for value creation.

"As long-term OraSure shareholders, we remain firmly convinced in the potential of the Company despite significant underperformance, which we believe has been driven by extremely poor strategy and capital allocation decisions," said Rishi Bajaj. "It has become clear to us that the current Board is neither capable of nor willing to take the necessary steps to transform the Company, and we believe that specialized expertise and direct shareholder perspective is needed to put the Company on a better path forward to deliver substantial near- and long-term value. Both John and I would add the needed expertise and perspective that the current Board lacks, and we look forward to enthusiastically presenting our case and qualifications directly to fellow OSUR shareholders."
