First Quarter 2023 and Recent Corporate and Operational Highlights<\/b><\/p>\n MASTERS-2<\/b><\/p>\n Medical Affairs<\/b><\/p>\n Management Commentary<\/b><\/p>\n \n\u201cWe entered 2023 with greater clarity and confidence on our path forward with MultiStem, having largely completed a significant restructuring in the second half of last year that reduced our operating expenses below $2.5 million per month. In addition, achieving a successful Type B meeting with the FDA on proposed MASTERS-2 trial modifications will now more appropriately represent the regenerative benefits of MultiStem over a longer period and reflect changes we\u2019ve observed in ischemic stroke standard of care. We\u2019ve also made meaningful progress with trial enrollment and advanced conversations with multiple parties exploring business development opportunities with MultiStem as well as our animal health franchise and SIFU,\u201d said Dan Camardo, Chief Executive Officer of Athersys. \u201cWe have more work to do, but I\u2019m encouraged by the progress we\u2019ve made and the catalysts we are working toward in the coming year.\u201d<\/p>\n First Quarter Results<\/b><\/p>\n \nThere was no revenue for the first quarter of 2023 compared with $2.9 million for the first quarter of 2022, which included the delivery of services under the arrangement with Healios. As of September 30, 2022, services under this arrangement were largely complete and were limited to close-out activities.<\/p>\n \nResearch and development expenses were $4.5 million for the first quarter of 2023 compared with $20.9 million for the comparable period in 2022. The decrease reflects our restructuring plan which resulted in reduced clinical trial expenses which includes personnel, manufacturing and other costs.<\/p>\n \nGeneral and administrative expenses were $2.8 million for the first quarter of 2023 compared with $4.1 million for the comparable period in 2022, with the decrease primarily due to the restructuring. The Company expects further decreases in general and administrative expenses.<\/p>\n \nNet loss for the first quarter of 2023 was $7.8 million, or $0.43 per share, compared with a net loss of $22.2 million, or $2.27 per share, for the comparable period in 2022.<\/p>\n \nCash and cash equivalents were $3.1 million as of March 31, 2023 compared with $9.0 million as of December 31, 2022.<\/p>\n About MultiStem\u00ae<\/sup><\/b><\/p>\n \nMultiStem\u00ae<\/sup> (invimestrocel) cell therapy is a patented regenerative medicine product in clinical development that has shown the ability to promote tissue repair and healing in a variety of ways, such as through the production of therapeutic factors in response to signals of inflammation and tissue damage. MultiStem therapy\u2019s potential for multidimensional therapeutic impact distinguishes it from traditional biopharmaceutical therapies focused on a single mechanism of benefit. The therapy represents a unique “off-the-shelf” stem cell product that can be manufactured in a scalable manner, may be stored for years in frozen form, and is administered without tissue matching or the need for immune suppression. Based upon its efficacy profile, its novel mechanisms of action, and a favorable and consistent tolerability demonstrated in clinical studies, we believe that MultiStem therapy could provide a meaningful benefit to patients, including those suffering from serious diseases and conditions with unmet medical need.<\/p>\n About Athersys<\/b><\/p>\n \nAthersys is a biotechnology company engaged in the discovery and development of therapeutic product candidates designed to extend and enhance the quality of human life. The Company is developing its MultiStem\u00ae<\/sup> cell therapy product, a patented, adult-derived \u201coff-the-shelf\u201d stem cell product, initially for disease indications in the neurological, inflammatory and immune, and other critical care indications and has several ongoing clinical trials evaluating this potential regenerative medicine product. Athersys has forged strategic partnerships and a broad network of collaborations to further advance MultiStem cell therapy toward commercialization.
