Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”).
Alzamend has strengthened its financial foundation, reflecting a
strategic focus on fiscal prudence and effective capital
management. Key financial highlights include:
- Net cash provided by financing activities of $8.3 million for
the six months ended October 31, 2024;
- Stockholder equity of $3.8 million at October 31, 2024,
compared to a stockholder deficit of $2.6 million at April 30,
2024;
- Cash of $4.1 million at October 31, 2024, compared to $0.4
million at April 30, 2024; and
- Total liabilities of $1.3 million at October 31, 2024, compared
to $3.2 million at April 30, 2024.
This year, Alzamend entered into a securities purchase agreement
with an institutional investor to purchase up to $25 million of
preferred stock and warrants over a two-year period. In addition,
Alzamend entered into an at-the-market sales agreement, with the
right of Alzamend to strategically sell up to $6.5 million of
common stock at its option. Please see Alzamend’s Commission
filings for additional information regarding these agreements and
the terms of such financing transactions.
“These financing transactions have allowed us to greatly improve
our financial situation,” said Stephan Jackman, Chief Executive
Officer of Alzamend. “In the first six months of this fiscal year,
we have gone from a stockholder deficit to several million in
stockholder equity, significantly reduced our outstanding
liabilities and increased our cash on hand. These financial
improvements allowed us to regain compliance with all applicable
requirements for our stock to continue to be listed on Nasdaq and
provides us with the capital in preparation of the upcoming
clinical trials to be initiated in 2025.”
Strategic Clinical Advancements
Alzamend is developing innovative treatments for Alzheimer’s,
BD, MDD and PTSD. Its leading drug candidate, AL001, utilizes a
novel lithium-salicylate/L-proline ionic cocrystal to enhance the
safety and efficacy of lithium therapy. This improved formulation
has shown promise in preclinical studies, demonstrating higher
lithium-brain concentrations with reduced toxicity compared to
traditional treatments.
Following successful Phase I and IIA trials, AL001 is positioned
for five Phase II trials in partnership with Massachusetts General
Hospital in 2025. These trials aim to redefine lithium therapy
across neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric conditions by
leveraging a lower-dose, high-efficacy approach anticipated to
qualify for the U.S. Food and Administration 505(b)(2) approval
pathway.
Alzamend’s secondary candidate, ALZN002, is an active
immunotherapy aimed at strengthening the ability of a patient’s
immunological system to combat Alzheimer’s. The Phase I/IIA trial
assesses its safety and efficacy, with trial resumption planned for
2025 following re-engagement of a new clinical research
organization.
“We are deeply grateful for the unwavering support of our
stockholders and are steadfast in our commitment to maintaining
transparency as we drive forward in our mission to deliver
breakthrough therapies for the over 43 million Americans affected
by Alzheimer’s, BD, MDD, and PTSD,” said Mr. Jackman. “While recent
market fluctuations have challenged our stock performance, I am
confident that our upcoming studies are set to significantly
advance the healthcare industry and enhance stockholder value.”
