Predictive Oncology Reports Third Quarter 2023 Financial Results and Provides Business Update

PITTSBURGH, Nov. 14, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Predictive Oncology (Nasdaq: POAI), a science driven company leveraging its proprietary artificial intelligence and machine learning capabilities, extensive biorepository of tumor samples, CLIA laboratory and GMP facility, to accelerate oncologic drug discovery and enable drug development, today reported financial and operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, and provided a corporate update. The company reported a net loss of $3.2 million on total net revenue of $0.7 million for the third quarter 2023.

Q3 2023 and Recent Highlights:

  • Successfully delivered actionable results of first campaign with Cancer Research Horizons (CRH) in which Predictive Oncology predicted, with a high degree of accuracy, which cancer types and patient populations are most likely to respond to CRH’s pre-clinical glutaminase inhibitors, informing future clinical development pathways.
  • Announced successful completion of a molecular characterization study in collaboration with UPMC Magee-Womens Hospital. The study identified the key molecular features that drive overall survival in ovarian cancer by employing multi-omic machine learning models that may support tailoring of therapies to individual patients to positively affect overall survival.
  • Reported a 22% reduction in net loss in the third quarter of 2023 versus the third quarter of 2022, driven by lower General and Administrative expenses.

“We recently achieved a key milestone with the delivery of successful results from our first campaign with Cancer Research Horizons, a subsidiary of the largest independent funder of cancer research in the world,” said Raymond F. Vennare, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of Predictive Oncology. “In this ground-breaking and validating work, we leveraged our PEDAL platform and capabilities to evaluate their pre-clinical glutaminase inhibitors to predict, with a high degree of accuracy, which cancer types and patient populations are most likely to respond to these compounds, providing actionable information that can inform future clinical development pathways. The results from this initial PEDAL campaign further create value by validating the data package for these assets, making them ideal candidates for potential out-licensing.”  

“We were also very pleased to announce, just a few days ago, the completion of a molecular characterization study in collaboration with UPMC Magee-Womens Hospital in Pittsburgh to identify the key molecular features that drive overall survival in ovarian cancer. In addition to demonstrating the versatility of our technology, we believe these findings will ultimately contribute to the development of personalized therapies that extend the overall survival of ovarian cancer patients.

“I am pleased with our progress to date and believe we have created a solid foundation on which to drive future growth,” Mr. Vennare concluded.

Q3 2023 Financial Summary:

  • Concluded the third quarter of 2023 with $11.9 million in cash and cash equivalents, compared to $22.1 million as of December 31, 2022, and $11.7 million in Stockholder’s Equity, compared to $21.8 million as of December 31, 2022.
  • Loss per common share for Q3 2023 was $0.78, as compared to $1.04 for the third quarter of 2022.

Q3 2023 Financial results

  • Predictive Oncology recorded revenue of $715,056 in the third quarter of 2023, compared to $455,827 for the comparable period in 2022. The increase in revenues related primarily to higher sales of 3-D models in the current year.
  • Gross profit margin increased to 85% during the three months ended September 30, 2023 as compared to 76% in the comparable period in 2022 due to sales mix and higher margins on contracted services.
  • G&A expenses decreased by $704,344 to $2,583,574 for the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to $3,287,918 for the same period in 2022. The decrease was primarily due to lower severance to former employees as well as decreased depreciation and amortization expenses due to fully depreciated assets and prior period impairments.
  • Operations expense decreased by $14,551 to $842,579 for the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared to $857,130 for the comparable period in 2022. The decrease was primarily due to decreased consultant fees and decreased spending on tools, calibration, and testing in the Eagan, MN facility.
  • Sales and marketing expenses were roughly flat at $336,043 for the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to $333,377 for the same period in 2022.
  • Net cash used in operating activities was $10,107,030 and $9,135,812 for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022, respectively. Cash used in operating activities increased in the 2023 period primarily due to an increase in operating expenses and changes in working capital.
