InMed Pharmaceuticals — Health and wellness product launches

InMed Pharmaceuticals has reported fiscal Q322 results (ending 31 March) benefiting from commercial sales into the health and wellness market. Its product launches of high-value rare cannabinoids contributed to its $0.3m revenues and should provide most sales in the near future. It has also made progress with its pharmaceutical drug development program for treating glaucoma, where it completed the FDA pre-investigational new drug (pIND) meeting for candidate INM-088. We continue to see InMed offering near-term revenue generation combined with the longer-term value of its pharma drug development programs.

Health and wellness starting to bear fruit

Reflecting its move into the health and wellness space, InMed reported Q322 revenues of $0.3m, largely from sales of cannabichromene and cannabicitran (CBT), down slightly from a pro-forma $0.4m in Q321 (assuming BayMedica was acquired on 1 July 2020). InMed reported $5.9m in gross cash and management expects this to be sufficient to fund opex and capex into Q223.

Product launches as catalysts

As noted previously, launches of high-value rare cannabinoids continue to be key catalysts. Inbound demand for rare cannabinoids has increased, and the launches of CBT (January launch), cannabidivarin (April launch) and tetrahydrocannabivarin (THCV, commercial scale production in anticipation of B2B sales) are anticipated to benefit InMed’s revenues and margins as management expects to produce large-scale batches in May to June to meet anticipated demand. Moreover, InMed recently announced its BayMedica subsidiary would supply THCV to Radicle Science’s ‘Radicle Energy Study’ to assess its health effects.

Progress on treating glaucoma (INM-088)

InMed has completed its pIND application discussion with the FDA and reached alignment on the design for the initial Phase I–II clinical trials to gather early data on the safety and efficacy of INM-088 treatment. Management expects to file regulatory applications in H1 CY23 to initiate a human clinical trial.

Valuation: Slight tweaks to forecast, $5.6/share (base)

We adjust our forecasts from those published in our Outlook report for the lower net cash balance ($5.0m) than in Q222 ($10.3m) and the slightly higher share count. Our risk-adjusted per basic share valuations are now $5.6 (base), $15.5 (bull) and $1.1 (bear), down slightly from our prior $6.0 (base), $16.0 (bull) and $1.5 (bear).

Pharnext — PREMIER trial completes patient recruitment

Pharnext has announced it has completed patient enrolment in the pivotal Phase III PREMIER trial evaluating PXT3003 in patients with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 1A (CMT1A) meeting its previously announced timeline of Q222. This follows the recently presented positive data from the long-term open-label PLEO-CMT-FU study, which continued to show a sustained benefit for patients after five years of treatment and which has a strong read-across for the PREMIER trial, in our view. Recruitment completion also means that the 15-month study stays on track for a Q423 readout. Success here would make PXT3003, which has orphan drug designation in the United States and Europe, the first drug to be approved for this condition. Pharnext’s share price climbed as high as 62% on the news before settling down to close with a modest gain.
