Cash Flow Statement
28 April 2023
ASX, LSE: MXC

-- First patient enrolled in the ZAM app in association with an observational trial for CannEpil(R) on patients with Refractory, or drug resistant, Epilepsy.
-- MGC Pharma concluded a successful fundraise of c. GBP2.09m post quarter end supported by new and existing shareholders, brokers, and high net worth individuals in both the UK and Australia.
MGC Pharmaceuticals Ltd (' MGC Pharma' or ' the Company ') a European based pharmaceutical company specialising in the production and development of plant inspired medicines is pleased to provide its Quarterly Activity Report for the three months ending 31(st) March 2023.
Roby Zomer, co-founder, Managing Director and CEO of MGC Pharmaceuticals, commented : "The March quarter has proved significant for the Company as we advance progress toward Investigational New Drug (IND) submission with the FDA for key proprietary products, CimetrA(TM) and ArtemiC(TM). This clinical trial pathway and pipeline have been major catalysts in the fundraise and activities post quarter end, and we will continue to build on this momentum, increasing our global retail footprint and meeting the highest standards of pharmaceutical excellence."
Company Activities
CimetrA(TM)
MGC Pharma completed pre-clinical rodent studies on CimetrA(TM) in January, a major step in the clinical pathway to the targeted US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) IND Submission. Research using rodent and mammalian models were used to delineate the pharmacokinetic profile and general safety of the drug, as well as identifying toxicity patterns over a given period for the treatment before it advances to the next stage of trials, as stipulated in the FDA criteria. No anomalies were observed over the course of the study, nor were any clinical or behavioural adverse events recorded.
In March, the Company completed the pre-clinical study on CimetrA(TM), exploring the Mechanism of Action (MoA) of the product. The study showed that the administering of CimetrA(TM) following a stimulated immune response resulted in a significant decrease in IL-32 mRNA expression and a subsequent decrease in inflammation. This study was the final preclinical mechanism of action study and will enable the Company to expand future trials to show its efficacy against further indications. The study results will form part of the FDA application to register CimetrA(TM) as an IND.
ArtemiC(TM)
In March, ArtemiC(TM) , MGC Pharma's proprietary, clinically tested COVID-19 treatment, was granted over-the-counter (OTC) status on the National Drug Code Database (NDC) of the FDA, facilitated by MGC Pharma's supply and distribution partner, AMC Pharma, LLC. ArtemiC(TM) can now be found on the FDA National Drug Code Directory under the code: 83278.
OTC status means that AMC will be able to sell ArtemiC(TM) via US-based Pharmacy Benefit Management (PBM) networks, including prescription discount services, from April 2023. AMC are negotiating with the largest US pharmacy networks, and independent pharmacies for the inclusion of ArtemiC(TM) in shelf space now that the NDC has been listed, increasing retail access and subsequent sales.
Following the NDC Listing, AMC submitted a purchase order for US$2m of ArtemiC(TM), with production to commence immediately, for delivery in two instalments in Q3 and Q4 of this year. The NDC status is a major breakthrough for the company, as MGC Pharma works to expand global footprint and retail access.
CannEpil(R) and ZAM
The first patient was enrolled in the Company's proprietary d ata collection app and machine learning algorithm, ZAM, in order to log the data from an observational study monitoring the effects of CannEpil(R), MGC Pharma's epilepsy treatment. The app is recording daily metrics from patients, their symptoms, and the impact of their treatment in order to establish a baseline. This will provide both MGC Pharma and medical practitioners with a detailed record of the study and an enhanced understanding of the effects of CannEpil(R) on Refractory Epilepsy patients.
March Quarter Sales Update
MGC Pharma revenue in the March quarter was lower than average mainly due to seasonality issues with new year sales and establishing new pharma regulatory approvals and distribution channels for CannEpil in the UK and key EU markets, core activities that will build strong foundation for future growth.
Admin, staff and corporate costs were reduced by 3% in the March quarter due to a costs rationalisation review.
Funding and Cash Flow Reporting
Using the US$10 million Convertible Securities Financing Facility with Mercer Street Global Opportunity Fund, LLC, a fund managed by United States-based institutional fund manager Mercer Street Capital Partners, LLC, MGC Pharma drew down US$1,100,000 during the quarter. This will be used to fund working capital requirements and to further our clinical trial pathway and pipeline.
At the end of March, the Company had A$315K of cash on hand, and A$7.65m (US$5.05m) of funding capacity available under the Mercer US$10m Convertible Securities facility.
Accompany this Activity Report is a Cash Flow Report for the Quarter ending 31 March 2023.
In accordance with ASX Listing Rule 4.7C.3 the Company advises that during the March 2023 quarter, payments to related parties totalled A$172K, which consisted of fees paid to executive and non-executive directors of the Company.
As detailed in the accompany Appendix 4C (Quarterly Cash Flow Report), cashflows during the quarter included $38K cash outflows associated with inventory production, A$2.46m for administration costs (including product registration costs), and cash inflows A$1.58m in funding received from the drawdown of the Mercer Convertible Security facility.
Activities Post Quarter End
Post quarter end, the company successfully ra ised an aggregated GBP2.09 million (A$ 3.82m ) by way of a conditional placing of 476,132,620 new ordinary shares of no par value in the capital of the Company at a price of 0.44 pence (0.8 cents) per Placing Share, and 238,066,311 Fundraise Options . The Placing was supported by a mix of new and existing institutional and high net worth shareholders in both the UK and Australia, including Premier Miton and Cantheon Capital, in addition to the supplementary Broker Options raise.
Corporate and Commercial News
Over the course of the quarter, a number of personnel and advisor changes were announced:
Appointment of Auditor
The Company appointed Australian Chartered Accounting firm, Hall Chadwick Chartered Accounts ("Hall Chadwick"), as its external financial auditor, following a review of the Company's external auditor arrangements, and its cost reduction strategy. The board has selected Hall Chadwick based on their expertise, capacity to undertake the 31 December 2022 audit review, and fee structure.
