Forward-looking statements are neither historical facts nor assurances of future performance. Instead, they are based only on our current beliefs, expectations and assumptions regarding the future of our business, future plans and strategies, projections, anticipated events and trends, the economy and other future conditions.

Because forward-looking statements relate to the future, they are subject to inherent uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict and many of which are outside of Momentus’ control.

  • Added Dr. Douglas Golenbock to ZyVersa’s Inflammatory Disease Scientific Advisory Board to support advancement of Inflammasome ASC Inhibitor IC 100

WESTON, Fla., Aug. 21, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — ZyVersa Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq-GM: ZVSA; “ZyVersa”), a clinical stage specialty biopharmaceutical company developing first-in-class drugs for treatment of patients with renal and inflammatory diseases who have unmet medical needs, today provides a corporate update and reports financial results for the second quarter of 2023 ending June 30, 2023.

“The second quarter of 2023 was a period of continued progress at ZyVersa as we completed key corporate, developmental, regulatory and financial initiatives designed to position the company to achieve value-building milestones involving our Cholesterol Efflux Mediator™ VAR 200 and Inflammasome ASC Inhibitor IC 100,” said Stephen C. Glover, Co-founder, Chairman, Chief Executive Officer, and President of ZyVersa. “We are pleased to report our VAR 200 program is progressing as planned, and we anticipate initiation of a Phase 2a clinical trial in diabetic kidney disease (DKD) in the first quarter of 2024. For our Inflammasome ASC Inhibitor IC 100, we are completing final preclinical activities to enable submission of an Investigational New Drug (“IND”) application and initiation of a first-in-human clinical trial in 2024.”

Mr. Glover concluded: “This is a very exciting time for ZyVersa as we seek to create shareholder value through the development of first-in-class drugs at the forefront of renal and inflammatory diseases. Significant value-building milestones are expected to be achieved for Cholesterol Efflux MediatorTM VAR 200 and Inflammasome ASC Inhibitor IC 100 over the remainder of 2023 and early 2024 to increase shareholder value.”

  • European patent was granted covering VAR 200 for use in diabetic nephropathy/diabetic kidney disease
  • Planning and key initiatives are underway to initiate a Phase 2a clinical trial in patients with DKD, with initial patient enrollment expected by first quarter 2024

Inflammasome ASC Inhibitor IC 100

  • Continued to provide support for the mechanism of action of Inflammasome ASC Inhibitor IC 100 with consistent evidence across peer-reviewed academic literature on the role of inflammasomes in the pathogenesis of a broad range of diseases including Parkinson’s disease, Alzheimer’s disease, lupus nephritis, peripheral arterial disease, juvenile idiopathic arthritis, and alcoholic hepatitis
  • Enhanced Inflammatory Disease Scientific Advisory Board with the addition of Dr. Douglas Golenbock, a pioneer and internationally recognized authority in the field of innate immunity
    • Dr. Golenbock is The Neil and Margery Blacklow Chair in Infectious Diseases and Immunology and Professor and Chief, Division of Infectious Diseases and Immunology at the UMass Chan Medical School

SECOND QUARTER FINANCIAL RESULTS

Since its inception in 2014 through June 30, 2023, ZyVersa has not generated any revenue and has incurred significant operating losses and negative cash flows from its operations. Based on our current operating plan, we expect our cash of $0.2 million as of June 30, 2023, will only be sufficient to fund our operating expenses and capital expenditure requirements on a month-to-month basis. ZyVersa will need additional financing to support its continuing operations. ZyVersa will seek to fund its operations through public or private equity or debt financings or other sources, which may include government grants and collaborations with third parties.

Research and development expenses were $1.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023, an increase of $0.5 million or 69.7% from the three months ended June 30, 2022. The increase is primarily attributable to an increase of $0.5 million in the costs of manufacturing of IC 100.

General and administrative expenses were $3.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023, an increase of $2.8 million or 237.5% from the three months ended June 30, 2022. The increase is primarily attributable to $1.2 million of common stock granted to certain stockholders in exchange for increasing the duration of their lockup period for certain common stockholdings, $0.5 million in professional fees associated with being a public company, a $0.5 million increase in marketing costs for investor and public relations, $0.4 million in director and officer insurance, and $0.2 million for bonus accruals.

Pre-tax losses were $86.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023, an increase of $84.3 million compared to a pre-tax loss of approximately $2.0 million, for the three months ended June 30, 2022. The higher net loss reported for the three months ended June 30, 2023 is primarily due to the impairment of in-process research and development and impairment of goodwill of $69.3 million and $11.9 million, respectively, compared to none for the three months ended June 30, 2022. The impairment is a result of the decline in ZyVersa’s market capitalization as of June 30, 2023.

Net losses were $78.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023, an increase of $76.5 million compared to a net loss of approximately $2.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. A deferred tax benefit of $7.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023, compared to no tax benefit or expense during the three months ended June 30, 2022, resulted from the impairment of the in-process research and development.

About ZyVersa Therapeutics, Inc.

ZyVersa (Nasdaq-GM: ZVSA) is a clinical stage specialty biopharmaceutical company leveraging advanced, proprietary technologies to develop first-in-class drugs for patients with renal and inflammatory diseases who have significant unmet medical needs. The Company is currently advancing a therapeutic development pipeline with multiple programs built around its two proprietary technologies – Cholesterol Efflux Mediator™ VAR 200 developed to ameliorate renal lipid accumulation that damages the kidneys’ filtration system in patients with glomerular kidney diseases, and Inflammasome ASC Inhibitor IC 100, targeting damaging inflammation associated with numerous CNS and other inflammatory diseases.

This repayment will enable us to further reduce interest expense and enhance our leverage ratio. We were very pleased to have a strong partnership with TCW and Wells Fargo as we refinanced our then existing indebtedness during 2022 and look forward to continuing our lending relationship with Wells Fargo. With our proprietary reclamation technology, service and conversion offerings and solid base of customers committed to the adoption of cleaner cooling alternatives, we believe we are well positioned to grow our leadership role in the transitioning refrigerant industry and to capitalize on the tremendous opportunities represented by the ongoing refrigerant phaseouts.
