Forward guidance

The Company anticipates meeting with the FDA in the first quarter of 2025 to review future clinical and regulatory strategy for Alzheimer's disease. Current cash and cash equivalents are expected to be sufficient to fund Company operations through the fourth quarter of 2025. However, if the ELPIS II trial is successful and BLA enabling activities accelerate, additional financing may be needed.

Tailwinds

  • Current cash and cash equivalents are expected to be sufficient to fund Company through Q4 2025.
  • Anticipated meeting with FDA in Q1 2025 to review AD clinical and regulatory strategy.
  • Potential BLA filing with FDA in 2026 if ELPIS II trial is successful.
  • Intention to seek additional financing/capital raises/non-dilutive funding options to support accelerated activities.
  • Continued investment in advancing the clinical pipeline.

Headwinds

  • Clinical trial timing for rare diseases is difficult to predict, and enrollment completion for ELPIS II may occur in Q1 2025 instead of end of year.
  • Accelerated operating expenses and capital expenditure requirements in 2025 due to BLA enabling activities may necessitate increased spend.
  • Current cash projections may be impacted by ramped up activities and any financing transactions.
  • Inability to raise additional capital necessary to continue as a going concern is a risk.
  • Final marketing approval of product candidates by FDA or other regulatory authorities may be delayed, limited, or denied.
