Reported Full Year Fiscal 2023.  Yesterday, ChitogenX reported a loss per share of $0.13 (currencies in Canadian $), versus our expected $0.12 loss per share.  The difference was primarily due to a $768,000 charge on converting the $3 million non-convertible debt into a convertible debenture, taken during the fourth quarter. Operationally, fourth quarter expenses were lower at $1.09 million versus our estimate of $1.29 million, with lower than estimated R&D costs the biggest factor. 

Subsequent News. At fiscal yearend, the Company reported $108,000 in cash and equivalents. Subsequent to the yearend, ChitogenX raised about $5.3 million giving the Company some runway to develop both orthopedic and non-orthopedic applications.  As a reminder, ChitogenX also secured a $3.47 million 4-year grant in February 2023 for regenerative medicine development and to accelerate the commercial readiness of the ORTHO-R platform.

The NSERC is Canada’s largest supporter of innovation, funding explorers searching for scientific and technical breakthroughs.  Prima Québec is an advanced materials research and innovation hub.

Uses of the grant. The 4-year grant will be used to advance development, expand indication possibilities, develop new regenerative medicine biomaterials and accelerate the Company’s ORTHO-R commercial readiness. These potential indications and applications include not only tendinopathies like tennis elbow and Achilles heel injuries, but possibly also areas like cardiology, wound healing and oncology. In the first year of the grant, ChitogenX plans to focus on potential applications that deliver other biologic products using their chitosan biopolymer matrix.

Proof of concept confirmed. ChitogenX announced yesterday that in the meniscus tear repair study, the ORTHO-R biopolymer showed residency on the tissue more than 24 hours after surgery. In addition, PRP regenerative cells were recruited and aggregated at the surgery site. PRP alone disperses quickly, but the “sticky” PRP/chitosan biopolymer matrix showed extended tissue adherence.

Meniscus tear repair study in sheep. This pre-clinical study, composed of 22 sheep, tested the subjects’ menisci with sutures alone vs. platelet rich plasma (PRP) alone vs. PRP delivered by ORTHO-R biopolymer. This study represents the Company’s second proof of concept for their ORTHO-R drug/biologic in an orthopedic indication.
