OPERATIONAL REVIEW
Summit is seeking to treat all boys affected with the fatal disease Duchenne muscular dystrophy using its pioneering utrophin modulation technology. Summit is also advancing a highly selective antibiotic to treat Clostridium difficile infection.
Summits DMD utrophin modulation programme is a treatment approach that is independent of the underlying mutations in the dystrophin gene that cause the disease and therefore has the potential to address the entire population of DMD patients. Summit has established a leadership position in the field of utrophin modulation with a robust pipeline of first-, second- and future-generation candidates. Summit is currently evaluating its most advanced product candidate, SMT C1100, in a Phase 1b clinical trial in DMD patients and, in parallel, continuing development of second- and future-generation utrophin modulators.
Summits CDI therapy in clinical development is SMT19969, an orally administered small molecule antibiotic. SMT19969 is designed to selectively target Clostridium difficile bacteria without causing collateral damage to the healthy gut flora of patients, thereby reducing CDI recurrence rates, the key clinical issue in this disease.
Nasdaq Listing and Equity Offering
In March 2015, Summit successfully completed a US initial public offering on the NASDAQ Global Market issuing 3,967,500 American Depositary Shares (ADSs) at an offering price of $9.90 per ADS. Total gross proceeds were $39.3 million.
The Company believes that its NASDAQ listing will provide greater access to the large number of specialist healthcare investors in the US, as well as increase liquidity in the trading of its shares. The funds raised in the US IPO will support the on-going clinical development of both the Companys utrophin modulation programme for the treatment of DMD and novel antibiotic for the treatment of CDI.
The ADSs trade on NASDAQ under the symbol SMMT. The NASDAQ listing complements the listing of the Companys Ordinary Shares on AIM, a market of the London Stock Exchange. The Companys Ordinary Shares trade on AIM under the symbol SUMM. Each ADS represents five Ordinary Shares of 1 pence each in the capital of the Company.
Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy: Utrophin Modulation Programme
SMT C1100: Lead Utrophin Modulator
Summits lead utrophin modulator is SMT C1100. SMT C1100 is a small molecule currently being evaluated in a Phase 1b modified diet trial in patients with DMD.
The modified diet trial is a randomised, placebo-controlled clinical trial that aims to increase the blood plasma levels of SMT C1100 compared to the blood plasma levels observed in the Companys previous open label Phase 1b trial completed in 2014 by providing patients with specific dietary guidance recommending balanced proportions of fat, protein and carbohydrates. The trial is also evaluating the potential impact of SMT C1100 on enzyme biomarkers that are related to muscle health and further evaluating the safety and tolerability of the drug candidate.
The trial is now fully enrolled with 12 DMD patients between the ages of 5 and 13 years old. The blinded trial consists of three randomised 14-day treatment periods separated by washout periods of at least 14 days. Each patient will receive two different doses of SMT C1100 and a placebo control.
Summit expects to report top-line data from this trial in the third quarter of 2015.
SMT C1100: Future Clinical Trial Plans
If the Phase 1b modified diet trial is successful, Summit plans to initiate in the second half of 2015 a Phase 2 open label trial in DMD patients designed to evaluate the longer-term effects of SMT C1100 on muscle health, function and safety. Summit also plans to initiate a larger, multinational Phase 2 placebo-controlled trial that is expected to include sites in the United States and Europe in early 2016.
As highlighted by the on-going Phase 1b trial, the Company believes a balanced diet has the potential to improve blood plasma levels of SMT C1100. In parallel, the Company is developing an optimised formulation of SMT C1100 and is currently working to identify and evaluate a number of potential formulations of SMT C1100 for their suitability to be advanced into human clinical trials.
Second- and Future-Generation Utrophin Modulators
As part of the Companys strategy to maintain its leadership position in the field of utrophin modulation research, Summit is also advancing a pipeline of second- and future-generation utrophin modulators. The second-generation molecules are structurally related to SMT C1100, but are designed to have more favourable pharmaceutical properties to achieve higher drug uptake. Future-generation molecules will likely be structurally distinct from SMT C1100 and second-generation molecules. Summit continues research in this area and will present data at upcoming medical conferences.
C. difficile Infection Programme
SMT19969 is a novel antibiotic currently being evaluated in a Phase 2 proof of concept clinical trial being conducted in the United States and Canada. This trial, named CoDIFy, is a double-blind, randomised active-control trial evaluating the efficacy of SMT19969 against the current standard of care, the antibiotic vancomycin. CoDIFy will enrol up to 100 patients with half the patients receiving ten days of dosing with SMT19969, and the remaining patients receiving ten days of dosing with vancomycin.
The primary endpoint of the trial is sustained clinical response, which is defined as clinical cure based on the resolution of diarrhoea at the test of cure visit on day 12 and no recurrence of CDI within 30 days after the end of treatment. The trial will examine a number of secondary endpoints including the safety and tolerability of SMT19969, and its impact on the gut flora of patients. Top-line results from this trial are expected to be reported in the second half of 2015.
During the first quarter of 2015, a key patent protecting the use of SMT19969 in the treatment of CDI was issued by the US Patent and Trademark Office. The Company believes this patent significantly strengthens the intellectual property estate protecting the use of SMT19969.
The development of SMT19969 continues to be substantially supported by a £4.0 million Wellcome Trust Translational Award through to completion of the Phase 2 proof of concept clinical trial.
Operational and Board Update
In February, the Company received authority from shareholders to change its registered name from Summit Corporation plc to Summit Therapeutics plc.
Also in February, Mr David Wurzer was appointed to the Board as a Non-Executive Director. Mr Wurzer brings extensive experience in financial and business matters related to the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries having held a number of senior executive and board level positions.
FINANCIAL REVIEW
Other Operating Income
Other operating income for the three months ended 30 April 2015 was £0.4 million compared to £0.6 million for the three months ended 30 April 2014. Income recognised as part of the Wellcome Trust Award was £0.2 million lower for the three months ended 30 April 2015 as a result of a lower contribution rate ascribed to Phase 2 activities as compared to Phase 1 activities under the terms of the funding agreement.
Operating Expenses
Research and Development Expenses
Research and development expenses increased by £0.5 million to £3.1 million for the three months ended 30 April 2015 from £2.6 million for the three months ended 30 April 2014. This increase included a £0.4 million increase in costs in respect to clinical activities for the CDI programme and a £0.1 million increase in staff related costs.
General and Administration Expenses
General and administration expenses increased by £0.2 million to £1.1 million for the three months ended 30 April 2015 from £0.9 million for the three months ended 30 April 2014. This increase was primarily due to additional corporate costs following the Companys NASDAQ listing and additional expenses associated with the US office which was opened last year.
Cash Flows
Operating Activities
Net cash outflow from operating activities increased by £2.4 million to £3.9 million for the three months ended 30 April 2015 compared to £1.4 million for the three months ended 30 April 2014. This was driven by an increase in operating expenses and an increase in working capital requirements of £1.4 million.
Investing Activities
Net cash outflow from investing activities for the three months ended 30 April 2015 and the three months ended 30 April 2014 includes the net amount of bank interest received on cash deposits less amounts paid to acquire property and equipment.
Financing Activities
Net cash inflow from financing activities in both periods presented relates to proceeds received from the sale of the Companys equity securities. The Company received net proceeds of £22.0 million from the sale of equity securities during the three month period ended 30 April 2015 compared with net proceeds of £20.7 million from the sale of equity securities during the three month period ended 30 April 2014.
Nasdaq Listing and Equity Offering
The Companys financial position was significantly strengthened following the announcement on 5 March 2015 of a US initial public offering on the NASDAQ Global Market in which the Company issued 3,450,000 ADSs at a price of $9.90 per ADS. On 18 March 2015, the underwriters exercised in full their
over-allotment option to purchase an additional 517,500 ADSs on the same terms. Total gross proceeds of $39.3 million were raised. Each ADS represents five Ordinary Shares, thus 19,837,500 Ordinary Shares were issued in the offering.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the three months ended 30 April 2015
1. Basis of accounting
The unaudited consolidated interim financial statements of Summit Therapeutics plc and its subsidiaries (the Company or the Group) for the three months ended 30 April 2015 have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (IFRIC) interpretations endorsed by the European Union and as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board and with those parts of the Companies Act 2006 applicable to companies reporting under IFRS including those applicable to accounting periods ending 31 January 2016 and the accounting policies set out in Summits consolidated financial statements. They do not include all the statements required for full annual financial statements, and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements of the Group as at 31 January 2015. The financial statements are prepared in accordance with the historical cost convention. Whilst the financial information included in this announcement has been prepared in accordance with IFRSs adopted for use in the European Union and as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board, this announcement does not itself contain sufficient information to comply with IFRSs.
The interim financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. Management, having reviewed the future operating costs of the business in conjunction with the cash held at 30 April 2015, believes the Group has sufficient funds to continue as a going concern for the foreseeable future.
The financial information for the three month periods ended 30 April 2015 and 2014 is unaudited.
Solely for the convenience of the reader, unless otherwise indicated, all pound sterling amounts stated in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position as at 30 April 2015 and in the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income and Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows for the three months ended 30 April 2015 have been translated into US dollars at the rate on 30 April 2015 of $1.5328 to £1.00. These translations should not be considered representations that any such amounts have been, could have been or could be converted into US dollars at that or any other exchange rate as at that or any other date.
The Board of Directors of the Company approved this statement on 11 June 2015.
2. Loss per share calculation
The loss per Ordinary Share has been calculated by dividing the loss for the period by the weighted average number of shares in issue during the three month period to 30 April 2015: 52,391,028 (for the three month period to 30 April 2014: 35,004,079). The number of Ordinary Shares in issue were updated retrospectively to give effect to the share consolidation and subdivision which took place in July 2014.
Since the Group has reported a net loss, diluted loss per Ordinary Share is equal to basic loss per ordinary share.
3. Issue of share capital
On 5 March 2015 the Group announced an initial public offering on the NASDAQ Global Market issuing 3,450,000 ADSs at a price of $9.90 per ADS. On 18 March 2015 the underwriters exercised in full their over-allotment option to purchase an additional 517,500 ADS, on the same terms. Each ADS represents five Ordinary Shares of 1 pence each in the capital of the Company, thus 19,837,500 Ordinary Shares were issued. The equity placing raised net proceeds of £22.0 million. Following the initial public offering and the exercise of the over-allotment, the number of Ordinary Shares in issue was 60,955,197.
On 23 March 2015, the number of Ordinary Shares in issue rose to 60,982,581 Ordinary Shares of 1 pence each following the exercise of options over 27,384 shares. The issue of shares raised net proceeds of £0.01 million.
All new Ordinary Shares rank pari passu with existing Ordinary Shares.
