Wednesday, December 18, 2024

Tonix is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on discovering, licensing, acquiring and developing therapeutics and diagnostics to treat and prevent human disease and alleviate suffering. Tonix’s portfolio is composed of immunology, rare disease, infectious disease, and central nervous system (CNS) product candidates. Tonix’s immunology portfolio includes biologics to address organ transplant rejection, autoimmunity and cancer, including TNX-15001 which is a humanized monoclonal antibody targeting CD40-ligand being developed for the prevention of allograft and xenograft rejection and for the treatment of autoimmune diseases. A Phase 1 study of TNX-1500 is expected to be initiated in the second half of 2022. Tonix’s rare disease portfolio includes TNX-29002 for the treatment of Prader-Willi syndrome. TNX-2900 has been granted Orphan-Drug Designation by the FDA. Tonix’s infectious disease pipeline includes a vaccine in development to prevent smallpox and monkeypox called TNX-8013, next-generation vaccines to prevent COVID-19, and an antiviral to treat COVID-19. Tonix’s lead vaccine candidates for COVID-19 are TNX-1840 and TNX-18504, which are live virus vaccines based on Tonix’s recombinant pox vaccine (RPV) platform. TNX-35005 (sangivamycin, i.v. solution) is a small molecule antiviral drug to treat acute COVID-19 and is in the pre-IND stage of development. TNX-102 SL6, (cyclobenzaprine HCl sublingual tablets), is a small molecule drug being developed to treat Long COVID, a chronic post-acute COVID-19 condition. Tonix expects to initiate a Phase 2 study in Long COVID in the second quarter of 2022. The Company’s CNS portfolio includes both small molecules and biologics to treat pain, neurologic, psychiatric and addiction conditions.

New Drug Application For Tonmya Accepted For Review. Tonix announced that the FDA has accepted the filing of the Tonmya NDA, showing that the application met the requirements for a full review. Tonmya received Fast Track designation, and an application for Priority Review was filed. Next, notification of the assigned PDUFA date (the statutory date for completing a review under the Prescription Drug User Fee Act) and Priority Review status are expected in about 14 days.

We Believe Tonmya Can Have A Significant Impact On Fibromyalgia Treatment. Symptoms of fibromyalgia include chronic pain, insomnia, depression, brain fog, fatigue, and abdominal cramps with varying severity. This variety of physical and cognitive symptoms has been treated with a combination of pain medications, anti-depressants, insomnia drugs, and neurological drugs. Tonmya is the first drug that was developed for fibromyalgia. Its clinical trials showed strong statistical significance in its primary endpoint (pain reduction) and all six secondary endpoints. No other single drug has shown this broad effect on multiple fibromyalgia symptoms.

Successful Development Could Qualify For A Valuable Asset. Maia announced that THIO has received FDA designation as a drug for a rare pediatric disease (RPD) when used to treat pediatric-type diffuse high-grade gliomas (PDHGG). This designation makes MAIA eligible to receive a Priority Review Voucher (PRV) upon approval. The PRV can be redeemed for priority review for a different new drug application or sold to another company. During 2024, PRVs have been sold for between $100 million and $158 million.

Patients with a highly aggressive subtype of PDHGG known as diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG) were treated with ionizing radiation and THIO. The results showed significant decreases in cell proliferation and anti-cancer effects.

Reassessing the path to commercialization. We are lowering our investment rating to a Market Perform from Outperform. While Comstock has made significant progress advancing its business unit plans, we think the path toward commercializing its Fuels and Metals businesses could take longer than we previously expected and is subject to a number of risk factors, including execution and financing. Based on the company’s liquidity, anticipated capital requirements, risk and reward profile, and lead time associated with commercializing its businesses, we think a Market Perform is appropriate.

SBC Commerce transaction. In August, Comstock announced a significant and promising transaction with SBC Commerce LLC (SBCC), a U.S. based private equity group, to directly invest in each of Comstock’s businesses and acquire Comstock’s properties in Silver Springs, Nevada. Our previous valuation and price target were based in part on the implied value of the transaction. To date, no definitive agreement has been announced with SBC Commerce, and it is unclear to us whether the transaction will close as contemplated. We look forward to an update and will wait to assess any final agreement(s).

Ramping Up. The GEO Group announced a $70 million investment to expand the Company’s detention capacity, secure transportation, and electronic monitoring services to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (“ICE”). Already the largest services provider to ICE, GEO is currently providing approximately 21,000 detention beds (with a present census of 14,000) at 16 ICE Processing Centers with the ability to expand to a minimum of 32,000 beds at 23 facilities.

Financing. To help offset the $70 million investment in capital expenditures and further reduce debt, GEO intends to pursue the possible sale of several underperforming company-owned state correctional facilities. Any potential sale of facilities will depend, at least partially, on valuation, but we view this positively.

A NT10-Q. Comtech missed the deadline for filing its 10-Q for the period ended October 31, 2024, the first quarter of the Company’s fiscal 2025. Unfortunately, this is another late filing, following an NT10-K for the 2024 fiscal year and an NT10-Q for the fiscal third quarter of 2024. We are hopeful the Company will be able to file the required documents shortly.

Reasons. According to the 12b-25 filing, Comtech is unable to file on a timely basis due to “the Company’s ongoing efforts to finalize its condensed consolidated financial statements, which include: (i) its recoverability assessments of (x) receivables and contract assets related to a certain international reseller of our troposcatter technologies, and (y) goodwill and certain long-lived assets due to the Company’s ongoing evaluation of its strategic transformation plans; and (ii) the accounting for and presentation of certain debt instruments and exchanges of convertible preferred shares.”

Solid Q3 Results. The company reported favorable Q3 revenue of $80.2 million and adj. EBITDA of $7.1 million, both of which were in line with our estimates of $81.5 million and $7.0 million, respectively. Furthermore, gross margin improved by 580 basis points from the prior year period. In our view, the solid results demonstrate the efficacy of the company’s initiatives to enhance its expense structure and improve gross margins.

Improved gross margin. The company’s strong gross margin improvement was largely driven by a 480bp improvement in product costs and reduced freight costs, with an 80bp contribution from lower promotional activity and discounting in its Direct To Consumer (DTC) segment.

In the first tranche, a total of 2,726,499 units were sold for gross proceeds of C$1,226,924.55. Each unit is comprised of one common share and one common share purchase warrant.

The net proceeds will be used to fund exploration in France including impact studies, exploration programs at key targets in Ecuador, and working capital.

Preparing for 2025. In November, Aurania commenced an induced polarization (IP) geophysical survey over its Kuri-Yawi epithermal gold target at the company’s Lost Cities-Cutucu project in southeastern Ecuador. The IP survey is designed to identify deep conductors that could correspond to gold mineralization and to target drill holes for the planned program in 2025.

NobleCon20. On December 3, management presented at NobleCon20 at Florida Atlantic University (FAU) in Boca Raton, Florida. Giles Goodburn, Global Head of FP&A and Investor Relations, highlighted the company’s ongoing transformation to a leaner, more focused organization. A replay of the presentation can be found here.

Business transformation underway. Since the start of 2024, the company has completed several divestitures totaling roughly $780 million in net proceeds. This has allowed the company to make significant balance sheet improvements. The company is also in the process of cutting corporate overhead and various stranded costs following the recent divestitures. Moreover, with an infusion of new business leaders across its three segments we believe the company is positioning itself for future revenue growth as a more focused and efficient organization.
