Business highlights in the first quarter of 2016

  • The Board of Directors decided to carry out a new issue of shares and warrants (units) with preferential rights for existing shareholders. Upon full subscription of the New Issue, the Company aimed to raise approximately SEK 94.4 m before issue expenses.
  • NeuroVive made an acquisition of approximately 5% of British company Isomerase Therapeutics with the overall goal to strengthen the partnership and accelerate NeuroVive's research and development (R&D) program.
  • NeuroVive entered into a research partnership with University of Pennsylvania to enhance NeuroVive's traumatic brain injury (TBI) research and development program.
  • NeuroVive announced the CiPRICS study enrols 100 patients and reported a favourable safety evaluation.
  • The Board selected new CEO Erik Kinnman to lead NeuroVive.

Post balance sheet events

  • The preferential rights issue was fully subscribed. NeuroVive completed the preferential rights issue of units, comprising shares and warrants, authorized by the Extraordinary General Meeting on 31 March 2016. The preferential rights issue was 100.4 % subscribed, raising approximately SEK 94.4 million for the company before issue expenses. Upon full utilization of the warrants, the company will raise an additional SEK 32.6 million. The new issue was guaranteed to 75% through guarantee commitments. The full subscription means that underwriting guarantees will not have to be utilized.
  • The company announces the start of the first of three studies in the preclinical program in traumatic brain injury (TBI) which is being done in collaboration with the University of Pennsylvania.

Comments from our CEO, Erik Kinnman

During my short and intense introduction to the company, I worked side by side with the team to define and execute the company's strategic priorities. Our priorities from the beginning of the year were clear: accelerate the research and development programs, build the NeuroVive team and expertise to deliver on strategy and maintain ongoing communication with our investors to provide them with updates on our progress and challenges.

Coming in as the new leader, I have discovered several key areas of strength for NeuroVive. The first area that stands out is the teams' high degree of scientific excellence in neurological diseases and mitochondrial medicine. They have a deep understanding of the role of mitochondrial medicine and have identified where NeuroVive can develop clinical solutions to address unmet medical needs. Our broad research and development portfolio is evidence of the teams' expertise. Another key strength of NeuroVive is our strong pharma network. Our partners are essential to progress and accelerate our R&D program and having a network of partners allows us to remain agile and responsive. During the first quarter, we further strengthened our partnership with Isomerase Therapeutics through a partial acquisition. We are very excited about this enhanced partnership as Isomerase compliments the R&D team at NeuroVive and will allow us to uncover further opportunities as we move forward. We also announced our partnership with the University of Pennsylvania for our TBI preclinical program. This program is extremely important to NeuroVive as the preclinical study results will provide us with further information on the efficacy of NeuroSTAT® in the TBI indication.

A key initiative that was undertaken during this quarter to support the R&D acceleration was the rights issue. The NeuroVive management team and board determined early in the year that further funding would be required for both the clinical and discovery programs and therefore the rights issue was resolved. The rights issue period ran from April 18th to May 2nd and included several investor presentations to ensure clear communication of our intentions and progress. We are extremely pleased with the results of the rights issue as we achieved full subscription. This is a strong signal that our investors have confidence in our renewed direction and leadership.

We have also made good progress in our clinical program with respect to both TBI and AKI. The AKI program, CiPRICS, evaluating Ciclomulsion passed the second safety assessment from the independent safety committee following 100 patients recruited in the trial and continues to advance at a good pace with now over 140 patients recruited. This trial is important to the company, as it will allow us to decide whether or not we proceed to explore AKI with either CicloMulsion or NVP019. As this is the first and exploratory phase II trial in patients, we of course remain hopeful to see positive results but understand there is a risk of the study not demonstrating any benefit. We are progressing our discovery programs with NVP015 (Complex I deficiency) and NVP019 in alternative indications to ensure we have a strong pipeline of potential drug projects to fuel our growth.

The NeuroVive team had two other new members introduced in the first quarter in addition to myself. Matilda Hugerth joined as Clinical/Regulatory manager and Cecilia Hofvander as Investor Relations/Communications director. I am really pleased to have a strong team in place and I look forward to working closely with all of them to advance the company forward.

When I joined NeuroVive a few months ago, I committed to giving communication a top priority and to maintain an open, continuous and transparent communication. I believe we have provided our investors with all the information available to us so that they feel both informed and confident that we are moving in the right direction. I am committed to making sure this remains a key priority as we will have many key milestones to report during the year.

The first quarter has been busy but productive. We have established a strong team, had a successful rights issue and have taken steps to ensure we continue to accelerate our R&D programs. We have strong momentum and will continue to build on this moving into the next quarter and beyond.

Erik Kinnman CEO, NeuroVive Pharmaceutical AB (publ)

Operations

During the first quarter a new CEO was recruited. Erik Kinnman was appointed as the new CEO mid-February and took on the position one month later. Erik had a quick initiation into the company as there were several key activities ongoing and needed to work closely with Jan Nilsson to lead these initiatives. In addition to Erik, there were two other new team members welcomed by NeuroVive: Matilda Hugerth joined as Clinical/Regulatory manager and is leading the management of the clinical program and Cecilia Hofvander as Investor Relations/Communications director who will join June 1st. The NeuroVive team is now complete and all teams are fully operational.

Several key activities in NeuorVive's R&D program took place in the first quarter in order to ensure that NeuroVive could continue to progress and potentially accelerate the discovery and clinical programs. The investigator initiated exploratory phase II study, CiPRICS, evaluating Ciclosporin in the prevention of acute kidney injury in coronary artery bypass surgery patients (AKI program) advanced very well in the first quarter. 100 patients were included in the study and the independent safety committee has endorsed the continuation of the study following the safety assessment completed on these patients. The study team in Lund has now included over 140 patients in the trial and continues to see good progress. We expect the study to continue as planned and have the full study results presented by the investigators during the second half year. This study is most important for NeuroVive as it will provide more information as to the potential benefit of cyclophilin inhibition for cell protection both for CicloMulsion as well as NVP019. It is important to remember that this first study in patients is an exploratory phase II study and like all studies in early phases, there are risks associated with them. For this reason, it is important that NeuroVive continues to focus efforts both on completing this study but also building the discovery portfolio to ensure the pipeline is strong moving forward. Similar to the CiPRICS study, the early phase II study CHIC evaluating NeuroSTAT® in traumatic brain injury (TBI program) is also progressing well with 15 patients now recruited into the study. We have provided further support to the study site and will continue to work closely with the lead investigator to ensure this study is fully recruited by the end of the year in accordance with the plan. To support the CHIC study, the first phase of the preclinical TBI study program was initiated in partnership with University of Pennsylvania. This study is very important, as it will demonstrate the potential protective effect of NeuroSTAT® in an acute TBI injury model. There are 2 further phases to this TBI preclinical study program and it is expected that all three phases be complete by the fourth quarter of 2016. Provided these studies are positive, they will support future regulatory applications for potential clinical trials of NeuroSTAT.

During the first quarter, there has been increased focus on the preclinical projects and the discovery platforms. The entire research team at NeuroVive have been working hard to move the chemistry and other development work forward. To provide further support to the team and ensure even more focus on the NeuroVive projects, the company made a partial acquisition of Isomerase Therapeutics. Isomerase is a true partner to NeuroVive and they provided invaluable input and expertise to advance the research projects NVP019, NVP014, and NVP015. The work continues on advancing our lead compound NVP019, as well as the new chemistry platforms for the stroke project (NVP014) and the mitochondrial energy-regulation project (NVP015). The NVP015 project has completed the in vivo pharmacokinetic studies and is conducting in vivo proof of efficacy studies in metabolic models. NeuroVive also has several other R&D discovery projects ongoing and looks forward to sharing further updates on these projects as data becomes available.

NeuroVive has a strong pharma network model and places much importance on the partner network to add further expertise to the R&D team. The acquisition of Isomerase and the agreement with University of Pennsylvania reinforce this principle.

Our partnership with NeuroVive Asia remains strong and we are supporting their operations as they focus on establishing a research and development platform in Asia and Asia-Pacific based on the Neurovive's international strategy, as well as NeuroVive Asia pursuing indications outside mitochondrial medicine for Asia.

Risks and uncertainty factors

A research company such as NeuroVive Pharmaceutical AB (publ) is subject to high operational and financial risks because the projects the company conducts are in different developmental phases, where a number of parameters influence the likelihood of commercial success. Briefly, operations are associated with risks relating to factors including drug development, competition, technological progress, patents, regulatory requirements, capital requirements, currencies and interest rates. Arbutus decision to discontinue the development of OCB030 will have some financial consequences but the specific details are yet to be determined. There have been no significant changes regarding risks or uncertainty factors during the current period.

In March 2013, CicloMulsion AG commenced arbitration seeking declaratory relief with regard to royalties under a 2004 License Agreement with the Company as well as certain other claims relating to the Company's obligations under the License Agreement, including a royalty claim amounting to 700,000 RMB pertaining to a payment already received by NeuroVive Asia from Sihuan Pharma, declaratory relief pertaining to the right of the Company to terminate the License Agreement, and the provision of certain information.

On May 25, 2016, the Tribunal rendered a partial award. The expected outcome of the arbitration has been previously communicated. An award was expected to be received at this time. Under the award, three of the five claims asserted by CicloMulsion AG were finally dismissed, including the payment claim and claim for the provision of information. The Tribunal held that the Company is obliged to pay, subject to the terms of the License Agreement, future royalties to be calculated with the stipulated royalty rate of either 10% (non-immunosuppression indications) or 30% (immunosuppression indications) for six countries (United States, Germany, France, Great Britain, Italy and – depending on the product – Japan) for a period of 15 years from the first launch of a product in that country. This ruling has no financial implications for the company at this time. The Tribunal also held that in the event the Company terminates the License Agreement, the stipulated obligation to pay royalties will continue to apply. Regarding the obligation of the Company to pay royalties in other countries, the Arbitral Tribunal reserved its decision for a final award. The proceeding will be continued in this respect. There are indications that the royalty rate for such other countries – if any – may be reduced and an award in this regard is expected by the end of 2016. The final award will also include a decision on the overall costs of the arbitration proceedings, including the claims already addressed in the partial award, and could result in an obligation to compensate the other party's costs.

Under the applicable rules of arbitration, the partial award is final and binding in relation to the claims covered by the partial award. The partial award is subject to appeal by each party to the competent state court on limited grounds, including non-compliance with applicable competition law on which the Tribunal's award is partially based. The Company is currently assessing the partial award from this perspective.

The parent company's total loss carry-forwards amount to SEK 191,277,000 as of 31 March 2016 (105,511,000).
