InMed Pharmaceuticals Reports Third Quarter Fiscal 2024 Financial Results and Provides Business Update

 

●

Reported positive preclinical data in both its Alzheimer’s and dry AMD programs

 

●

Closed Fiscal Q3 with cash position of US$7.9 million

 

Vancouver, BC – May 14, 2024 – InMed Pharmaceuticals Inc. (“InMed” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: INM), a clinical stage pharmaceutical company focused on developing a pipeline of proprietary small molecule drug candidates, today announced financial results and business update for the third quarter of the fiscal year 2024, which ended March 31, 2024. 

 

The Company’s full financial statements and related MD&A for the third quarter ended March 31, 2024, are available at www.inmedpharma.com, www.sedar.com and at www.sec.gov.

 

Eric A. Adams, InMed President and CEO, commented, “The third quarter of fiscal year 2024 was another positive quarter for the Company as we continue to make exciting progress in our pharmaceutical pipeline and deliver steady growth in our commercial business. Last month we announced important updates in our two preclinical programs in the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease (“ALZ”) and dry Age-related Macular Degeneration (“dry AMD”). Both programs utilize proprietary small molecule drug candidates activating both the CB1 / CB2 receptors as well as other disease-relevant receptors. We are highly encouraged by the positive findings and we are committed to further advancing our research in these two highly underserved indications.”

 

Adams continued, “Revenues from the BayMedica commercial business remain consistent with the previous quarter and BayMedica operated as a profitable commercial business unit in the current quarter. We remain optimistic for the sector as more brands start to incorporate rare cannabinoids into their product portfolios.”

 

Business update

 

Pharmaceutical Development Programs

 

INM-901: A multipronged approach in treatment of Alzheimer’s disease.

 

INM-901 is a proprietary small molecule drug candidate being developed as a potential treatment for ALZ employing multiple mechanisms of actions. On April 4, 2024, the Company announced additional preclinical data demonstrating INM-901’s positive pharmacological effects. Results included:

 

	●	INM-901 is a preferential signaling agonist of the CB1/CB2 receptors and impacts the PPAR signaling pathway;

	●	INM-901 demonstrates reduced neuroinflammation and improved neuronal function; and

●

mRNA data from INM-901 preclinical studies support the observations made in the previously released behavior studies in locomotor activity, cognition and memory.

 

InMed continues to accelerate the development of its ALZ program, with long-term behavioural and mechanism of action / receptor interaction studies currently underway. Data read-out expected in calendar 3Q 2024.

 

Additionally, the Company recently announced the addition of Dr. David G. Morgan, a leader in neurodegenerative disease, to its Scientific Advisory Board (“SAB”), reinforcing the Company’s commitment to advancing it’s INM-901 program.

 

 

INM-089: Neuroprotection in the treatment of dry AMD

 

INM-089 is another proprietary small molecule drug candidate being studied in the treatment of Age-related Macular Degeneration (“AMD”). In April, the Company announced additional preclinical data for INM-089 further demonstrating positive pharmacological effects. Results from INM-089 preclinical studies included:

 

●

Data indicates that INM-089 may be more effective as a therapeutic treatment for dry AMD compared to neovascular, or wet, AMD;

 

●

More specifically, data suggests INM-089 may be an important candidate for geographic atrophy (“GA”) which is common in more advanced cases of dry AMD;

 

●

Enhanced neuroprotection of photoreceptors as well as improved photoreceptor function;

 

●

Improved integrity of retinal pigment epithelium; and

 

●

Reduction in extracellular autofluorescent deposits, a hallmark of dry AMD.

 

The Company has strategically prioritized the utilization of its proprietary small molecule drug candidates in its drug development initiatives, resulting in the INM-089 program for the treatment of dry AMD taking precedence over the INM-088 program in the treatment of glaucoma. Therefore, the Company will not be advancing INM-088 in the immediate future. Notably, the initial research and data from the INM-088 program have played an instrumental role in shaping the development of INM-089 program.

 

BayMedica Commercial Business

 

BayMedica revenues were $3.3 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2024, compared with $1.8 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2023, representing 83% growth over the same period last year. Quarter over quarter revenue has remained flat this period with sales of $1.2 million, same as the previous quarter. BayMedica operated as a profitable business unit this quarter and continues to make progress lowering manufacturing costs that should incrementally improve margins over time. While we are optimistic about the long-term growth potential in the rare cannabinoids sector, we expect revenue to fluctuate in future quarters.

 

Financial and Corporate Highlights:

 

●

Net loss was $5.7 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2024, compared to a net loss of $7.6 million in the same period last year.

 

●

Research and development and patents expenses were $2.6 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2024, compared with $3.1 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2023.

 

●

General and administrative expenses were $4 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2024, compared with $4.4 million for the same period last year.

 

●

As of March 31, 2023, the Company’s cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments were $7.6 million, which compares to $8.9 million on June 30, 2023.

 

Based on current forecasts, the Company expects its cash will be sufficient to fund its planned operating expenses and capital expenditure requirements into the fourth quarter of calendar year 2024, depending on the level and timing of realizing BayMedica revenues from the sale of products in the Health & Wellness sector as well as the level and timing of our operating expenses.

 

Ms. Alexandra D.J. Mancini, Senior Vice President, Clinical & Regulatory Affairs, provided notice to the Company and the Company’s Board of Directors of her intention to retire from her position, effective June 30, 2024. Ms. Mancini intends to continue in a consultancy capacity to ensure a smooth transition of both the INM-755 program and ongoing regulatory matters. The Company would like to thank Ms. Mancini for her significant, valuable contributions, and leadership during her tenure with InMed and wish her all the best in her retirement. We congratulate her on a tremendous career in the biotech industry, having played an important role in developing and bringing to market several pharmaceutical products in many disease areas.
