CohBar Reports Second Quarter 2023 Financial Results

MENLO PARK, Calif., Aug. 14, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- CohBar, Inc. (NASDAQ: CWBR) today reported its financial results and highlights for the second quarter ended June 30, 2023.

Second Quarter 2023 Summary and Financial Results

  • Entered into Definitive Merger Agreement with Morphogenesis: In May 2023, CohBar announced that the company entered into a definitive merger agreement with a privately held biotechnology company, Morphogenesis, Inc. (“Morphogenesis”), for an all-stock transaction to advance a late-stage oncology pipeline. The combined company is expected to operate under the name “TuHURA Biosciences, Inc.” and to trade on The Nasdaq Capital Market (“Nasdaq”). The transaction is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2023.

  • Cash, Cash Equivalents and Investments: The company had cash, cash equivalents and investments of $12.3 million as of June 30, 2023, compared to $15.7 million as of December 31, 2022.

  • R&D Expenses: Research and development expenses were $0.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023, compared to $1.2 million in the prior year quarter. The lower research and development expenses are due to the suspension of our development activities.

  • G&A Expenses: General and administrative expenses were $4.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023, compared to $1.6 million in the prior year quarter. The increase in general and administrative expenses was primarily due to costs related to the merger with Morphogenesis and compensation charges incurred related to the retention of our key executives.

  • Net Loss: For the three months ended June 30, 2023, net loss, which included $0.3 million of non-cash expenses, was $4.3 million, or $1.49 per basic and diluted share. For the three months ended June 30, 2022, net loss, which included $0.5 million of non-cash expenses, was $2.7 million, or $0.94 per basic and diluted share.
