TORONTO and HAIFA, Israel, April 02, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — NurExone Biologic Inc. (TSXV: NRX) (Germany: J90) (the “Company” or “NurExone”), a pioneering biopharmaceutical company, developing regenerative medicine therapies, today provided a business update and reported financial results for the fourth quarter and financial year ended December 31, 2023.
Fourth Quarter Highlights and Significant Milestones
Dr. Lior Shaltiel, CEO of NurExone, stated, “Our emphasis on research and development in 2023, coupled with the expansion of our Intellectual Property (“IP”) portfolio, the ODD for ExoPTEN, and the growth of the ExoTherapy platform, are laying the groundwork for the accelerated introduction of minimally invasive regenerative medicine.”
Eran Ovadya, CFO of NurExone, remarked, “Due to the ongoing support and confidence of our investors, the Company is confident that its current total existing funds, augmented by the recently completed exercise of warrants, will support ongoing operating activities through the end of 2024.”
Full Year and Fourth Quarter 2023 Financial Results
The increase of US$0.15 million in 2023, compared to 2022, was primarily due to the extensive research and development efforts required to continue the development of the ExoPTEN technology and other siRNA targets.
The decrease of US$2.03 million in 2023, compared to 2022, was primarily due to the reduction in professional services, mainly attributable to the transition to becoming a listed public Company in 2022.
The change in financial income of US$0.57 million in 2023, compared to 2022, was primarily due to US$0.50 million of non-cash expenses in 2022, related to the valuation of warrants and royalty liability.
Additionally, the Company had secured US$1.20 million as restricted cash, as of December 31, 2023, associated with a non-brokered private placement completed in January 2024 for total gross proceeds of US$1.50 million from the issuance of 7,091,993 common shares and warrants.
