    • Cash used in operations was approximately $5.0 million for the six months ended September 30, 2026.
    • Total assets were $57.7 million as of September 30, 2026, down from $66.7 million at March 31, 2026, primarily due to a reduction in intangible assets from $41.1 million to $27.6 million.

    • Stockholders' equity decreased to $55.5 million as of September 30, 2026, from $63.9 million at March 31, 2026.
  • Guidance and Future Outlook:

    • The company expects its existing cash and cash equivalents to sustain planned operations, including activities to address FDA Complete Response Letter (CRL) items, through the end of calendar 2028.
    • The company is executing a plan to address CMC and non-clinical data items identified in the FDA CRL to prepare for the resubmission of the New Drug Application (NDA) for GTx-104.
    • The timing of the NDA resubmission will depend on whichever manufacturing site (current or dual-source) reaches readiness first.
    • Reinspection timing for the current contract manufacturer depends on the facility's readiness and FDA scheduling.
  • Business Segments and Product Lines:

    • GTx-104, an injectable formulation of nimodipine for IV infusion in aSAH patients, has completed a Phase 3 clinical trial.
    • The company initiated a dual-source manufacturing strategy, including technology transfer to a second U.S.-based contract manufacturer starting with analytical method transfer.
    • Required non-clinical studies identified in the CRL have been initiated.
    • The current contract manufacturer has submitted a corrective action plan to the FDA, which the company believes is being executed.
    • GTx-104 has been administered to over 200 patients and healthy volunteers and holds FDA Orphan Drug Designation.
  • Market and Competitive Landscape:

    • Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage (aSAH) accounts for approximately 5% of all strokes, affecting an estimated 42,500 U.S. hospital-treated patients annually.
    • GTx-104 aims to address unmet medical needs by potentially eliminating the need for nasogastric tube administration in unconscious or dysphagic patients.
    • The drug delivery technology offers potential benefits including lower food effects, reduced drug-to-drug interactions, elimination of dosing errors, and better management of hypotension.
  • Risks and Challenges:

    • The NDA resubmission is contingent on successfully addressing all items cited in the FDA CRL, with risks of review delays.
    • Approval is contingent on the current contract manufacturer regaining compliance and generating required leachables data, or the second manufacturer completing technology transfer, manufacturing registration batches, and passing pre-approval inspection.
    • The FDA will not approve the NDA while the current facility remains in an unacceptable compliance status.
    • The company may require additional capital, which may not be available on acceptable terms.
    • Risks include the timing and success of regulatory resubmission, intellectual property protection, and potential legislative or regulatory changes.
  • Management Commentary and Tone:

    • CEO Prashant Kohli stated that the FDA did not identify clinical safety or efficacy deficiencies in the CRL and did not request additional clinical data.
    • Management expressed confidence that the dual-source manufacturing strategy is progressing to address potential remediation issues.
    • The tone indicates a focus on executing the plan to resolve CRL items and achieve NDA resubmission milestones.
  • Other Key Points:

    • Completed a $10 million private placement financing in August 2026 with institutional and accredited investors, resulting in net proceeds of $9.2 million.
    • Net proceeds are intended to support manufacturing and regulatory work to advance GTx-104.
    • Received FDA meeting minutes from a Type A Meeting held to discuss the CRL issued on April 23, 2026.
    • The company has 52 granted and pending patents related to GTx-104.
    • Common stock outstanding increased to 21,035,930 shares as of September 30, 2026, from 16,024,026 shares as of March 31, 2026.
