“We continue to evaluate the full Phase 2 data set for NSI-189 to determine the optimal development path in major depressive disorder and for other conditions, including Angelman’s Syndrome following highly encouraging preclinical data in that setting. We expect to provide a detailed update on our corporate strategy, including development and regulatory plans, after our post-phase 2 meeting with the FDA in the first half of 2018,” commented Rich Daly, Chairman and CEO.
“Our recent financing has further extended the company’s cash runway to sufficiently support continued research on NSI-189 and to support operations. We are encouraged by the emerging clinical profile of NSI-189 and look forward to presenting additional clinical data at the upcoming American College of Neuropsychopharmacology in December.”
Recent Corporate & Clinical Highlights & Milestones
Financial Results for the Third Quarter Ended September 30, 2017
Cash Position and Liquidity: At September 30, 2017, cash and investments was $14.1 million as compared to $11.4 million at June 30, 2017. The $2.6 million increase is due to proceeds of $5.4 million, net, from a public offering of common stock and warrants. On August 1, 2017, the Company closed a public offering of 3,000,000 shares of common stock and 2,250,000 common stock purchase warrants at a public purchase price of $2.00 per share and accompanying warrant. Gross proceeds were $6.0 million and approximately $5.4 million, net.
Operating Loss: Operating loss for the quarter ended September 30, 2017 was $2.6 million compared to a loss of $4.9 million for the same period of 2016. The decrease in operating loss for the third quarter 2017 was primarily due to a decrease in clinical trial expenses related to the completion of the Phase 2 clinical trial of NSI-189 in MDD coupled with ongoing corporate restructuring and cost reduction efforts.
Operating loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 was $11.0 million compared to a loss of $15.0 million for the same period of 2016. The decrease in operating loss for the nine-month period was primarily due to ongoing corporate restructuring and cost reduction efforts partially offset by increases in clinical trial expenses as the Company completed the Phase 2 clinical trial of NSI-189.
Net Loss: Net loss for the quarter ended September 30, 2017 was $0.1 million, or $0.01 per share (basic) compared to a loss of $5.2 million, or $0.59 per share (basic), on a split adjusted basis for the same period of 2016. The decrease in net loss was primarily due to a decrease in operating expenses along with a $2.7 million non-cash, gain resulting from the fair value adjustment of outstanding liability classified stock purchase warrants.
Net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 was $12.4 million, or $1.00 per share (basic), compared to a loss of $15.7 million, or $1.96 per share (basic), on a split adjusted basis for the same period of 2016. The decrease in net loss was primarily due to a decrease in operating expenses and interest expense due to the maturity of long-term debt in April 2017.
R&D Expenses: The $2.2 million, or 61% decrease, in research and development expenses for the quarter ended September 30, 2017, as compared to the comparable period of 2016, was primarily attributable to a $1.7 million decrease in clinical trial expenses due to the completion of NSI-189 Phase 2 clinical trial, a $0.3 million decrease in personnel, facility and other expenses related to ongoing corporate restructuring and cost reduction efforts and a $0.2 million decrease in non-cash stock based compensation expense.
The $2.3 million, or 25% decrease, in research and development expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, as compared to the comparable period of 2016, was primarily attributable to a $2.2 million decrease in personnel, facility and other expenses related to ongoing corporate restructuring and cost reduction efforts and a $0.4 million decrease in non-cash stock based compensation expense partially offset by a $0.3 million increase in clinical trial expenses related to the completion of the Phase 2 clinical trial of NSI-189.
G&A Expenses: The $0.1 million, or 9% decrease, in general and administrative expenses for the quarter ended September 30, 2017, as compared to the comparable period of 2016, was primarily attributable to a decrease in cash based board of directors fees.
The $1.7 million, or 29% decrease, in general and administrative expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 as compared to the comparable period of 2016 was primarily attributable to a $1.0 million decrease in non-cash stock based compensation expense coupled with a $0.8 million decrease in personnel related expense as a result of headcount reductions.
