Notes to Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

1. Nature of Operations

Edesa Biotech, Inc. (the Company or Edesa) is a biopharmaceutical company focused on acquiring, developing and commercializing clinical stage drugs for inflammatory and immune-related diseases with clear unmet medical needs. The Company is organized under the laws of British Columbia, Canada and is headquartered in Markham, Ontario. It operates under its wholly owned subsidiaries, Edesa Biotech Research, Inc., an Ontario, Canada corporation, and Edesa Biotech USA, Inc., a California, USA corporation.

The Company’s common shares trade on The Nasdaq Capital Market in the United States under the symbol “EDSA”.

2. Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (U.S. GAAP) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q. They do not include all information and footnotes necessary for a fair presentation of financial position, results of operations and cash flows in conformity with U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. These unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2023, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on December 15, 2023.

The accompanying unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated on consolidation. All adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments and accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations for the periods presented have been included in the interim periods. Operating results for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for other interim periods or the fiscal year ending September 30, 2024.

Use of estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the period or year. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Areas where significant judgment is involved in making estimates are valuation of accounts and other receivable; valuation and useful lives of property and equipment; intangible assets; right-of-use assets; deferred income taxes; the determination of fair value of share-based compensation; the determination of fair value of warrants in order to allocate proceeds from equity issuances; and forecasting future cash flows for assessing the going concern assumption.

Functional and reporting currencies

The consolidated financial statements of the Company are presented in U.S. dollars, unless otherwise stated, which is the Company’s and its wholly owned subsidiary’s, Edesa Biotech USA, Inc., functional currency. The functional currency of the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Edesa Biotech Research, Inc., as determined by management, is Canadian dollars.

3. Intangible Assets

Acquired license

In April 2020, the Company entered into a license agreement with a pharmaceutical development company to obtain exclusive world-wide rights to know-how, patents and data relating to certain monoclonal antibodies (the Constructs), including sublicensing rights. Unless earlier terminated, the term of the license agreement will remain in effect for 25 years from the date of first commercial sale of licensed products containing the Constructs. Subsequently, the license agreement will automatically renew for five-year periods unless either party terminates the agreement in accordance with its terms.

Under the license agreement, the Company is exclusively responsible, at its expense, for the research, development, manufacture, marketing, distribution and commercialization of the Constructs and licensed products and to obtain all necessary licenses and rights. The Company is required to use commercially reasonable efforts to develop and commercialize the Constructs in accordance with the terms of a development plan established by the parties.

The Company has determined that the license has multiple alternative future uses in research and development projects and sublicensing in other countries or for other disease indications. The value of the acquired license is recorded as an intangible asset with amortization over the estimated useful life of 25 years and evaluation for impairment at the end of each reporting period.

The required upfront license payment of $2.5 million was paid by issuance of Series A-1 Convertible Preferred Shares, which have been fully converted to common shares. The value of the license includes acquisition legal costs. See Note 5 for license commitments.

License and royalty commitments

In April 2020, through its Ontario subsidiary, the Company entered into a license agreement with a third party to obtain exclusive world-wide rights to the Constructs, including sublicensing rights. An intangible asset for the acquired license has been recognized. See Note 3 for intangible assets. Under the license agreement, the Company is committed to payments of up to an aggregate amount of $356 million contingent upon meeting certain milestones outlined in the license agreement, primarily relating to future potential commercial approval and sales milestones. The Company also has a commitment to pay royalties based on any net sales of products containing the Constructs in the countries where the Company directly commercializes the products containing the Constructs and a percentage of any sublicensing revenue received by the Company and its affiliates in the countries where it does not directly commercialize the products containing the Constructs. No milestone, royalty or sublicensing payments were made to the third party during the three and nine months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023.

In 2016, through its Ontario subsidiary, the Company entered into a license agreement with a third party to obtain exclusive rights to certain know-how, patents and data relating to a pharmaceutical product. The Company will use the exclusive rights to develop the product for therapeutic, prophylactic and diagnostic uses in topical dermal applications and anorectal applications. No intangible assets have been recognized under the license agreement with the third party. Under the license agreement, the Company is committed to payments of various amounts to the third party upon meeting certain milestones outlined in the license agreement, up to an aggregate amount of $18.4 million. Upon divestiture of substantially all of the assets of the Company, the Company shall pay the third party a percentage of the valuation of the licensed technology sold as determined by an external objective expert. The Company also has a commitment to pay the third party a royalty based on net sales of the product in countries where the Company, or an affiliate, directly commercializes the product and a percentage of sublicensing revenue received by the Company and its affiliates in the countries where it does not directly commercialize the product. A milestone payment of $0.04 million and $0.16 million were to the third party during the three and nine months ended June 30, 2023 and no milestone payments were made during the three and nine months ended June 30, 2024.

In March 2021, through its Ontario subsidiary, the Company entered into a license agreement with the inventor of the same pharmaceutical product to acquire global rights for all fields of use beyond those named under the 2016 license agreement. The Company is committed to remaining payments of up to an aggregate amount of $68.9 million, primarily relating to future potential commercial approval and sales milestones. In addition, if the Company fails to file an investigational new drug application or foreign equivalent (IND) for the product within a certain period of time following the date of the agreement, the Company is required to remit to the inventor a fixed license fee quarterly as long as the requirement to file an IND remains unfulfilled. For the three and nine months ended June 30, 2024, the Company recorded an expense of $25,000 and $75,000 as a result of meeting milestones outlined in the 2021 license agreement. There were no milestones achieved in the three and nine months ended June 30, 2023 and no expenses were incurred.

In June 2024, the Company’s drug candidate, EB05, was selected by the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (BARDA), part of the Administration for Strategic Preparedness and Response within the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, for evaluation in a U.S. government-funded clinical study. The Phase 2 platform trial will be a randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled, multi-center U.S. clinical trial to investigate novel threat-agnostic host-directed therapeutics, including EB05, in hospitalized adult patients with ARDS due to a variety of causes. For the EB05 cohort of the study, patients will be randomized one-to-one to either EB05 plus Standard of Care (SOC) or to a placebo plus SOC control arm. The Company plans to provide drug product for the study as well as technical support. The Company is responsible for providing drug product and placebo for the Phase 2 platform trial.

The Class B warrants have an exercise price of $7.00 per share and expired on December 23, 2023. The warrants are considered contracts on the Company’s own shares and are classified as equity.

Equity distribution agreement

On March 27, 2023, the Company entered into an equity distribution agreement with Canaccord, pursuant to which the Company may offer and sell, from time to time, common shares through an at-the-market equity offering program for up to $20 million in gross proceeds, subject to certain offering limitations that currently allow the Company to offer and sell common shares having an aggregate gross sales price of up to $8.4 million. The Company has no obligation to sell any of the common shares and may at any time suspend sales or terminate the equity distribution agreement in accordance with its terms. During the nine months ended June 30, 2024, the Company sold a total of 171,916 common shares pursuant to the agreement for net proceeds of approximately $0.6 million after deducting commissions and direct costs.

Black-Scholes option valuation model

The Company uses the Black-Scholes option valuation model to determine the fair value of share-based compensation for share options and compensation warrants granted and the fair value of warrants issued. Option valuation models require the input of highly subjective assumptions including the expected price volatility. The Company calculates expected volatility based on historical volatility of the Company’s share price. When there is insufficient data available, the Company uses a peer group that is publicly traded to calculate expected volatility. The Company adopted interest-free rates by reference to the U.S. treasury yield rates. The Company calculated the fair value of share options granted based on the expected life of 5 years considering expected forfeitures during the option term of 10 years. Expected life of warrants is based on warrant terms. The Company did not and is not expected to declare any dividends. Changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimates, and therefore the existing models do not necessarily provide a reliable single measure of the fair value of the Company’s warrants and share options.

There were 66,778 options at June 30, 2024 that had not vested with a weighted average exercise price of $10.15, $68.00 intrinsic value and a weighted average remaining life of 104 months.

The fair value of options granted during the nine months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 was estimated using the Black-Scholes option valuation model using the following assumptions:

	Nine Months Ended June 30, 2024			Nine Months Ended June 30, 2023

Risk free interest rate		4.92	%		3.62% - 4.18	%
Expected life (years)		5			5
Expected share price volatility		97.26	%		95.3% - 97.34	%
Expected dividend yield		0.00	%		0.00	%

The Company recorded $0.1 million and $0.1 million of share-based compensation expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively and $0.4 million and $0.7 million for the nine months ended June30, 2024 and 2023.

As of June 30, 2024, the Company had approximately $0.1 million of unrecognized share-based compensation expense, which is expected to be recognized over a period of 27 months.

Restricted share units (RSU)

The Company’s 2019 Plan allows restricted share units (RSUs) to be granted to directors, officers, employees and certain external consultants and advisers. Under the 2019 Plan, the RSU term is not to exceed 10 years. The fair value is based on the 5-day VWAP of the Company’s common shares up to the date of grant. The initial grant of RSUs was in August 2023. There were no RSUs granted in the comparative period.

The following is a summary of changes in the status of RSUs from October 1, 2023 through June 30, 2024:

	Number of RSU (#)		Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value
Nine Months Ended June 30, 2024
Balance - September 30, 2023		33,045	$	5.60

Granted		19,772		4.52

Balance - June 30, 2024		52,817	$	5.20

The following table summarizes information about the RSUs under the 2019 Plan outstanding and exercisable at June 30, 2024:

		Number of RSU (#)				Expiry Date
Fully-vested RSUs			52,817			August 2033 - June 2034

All RSUs that were granted vested immediately upon the grant date. The outstanding RSUs can be converted to common shares by the holder at any time prior to the expiry date. There is no future unrecorded compensation expense for the RSUs.

7. Government Contributions

Reimbursement grant income for the Company’s federal grant with the Canadian government’s SIF is recorded based on the claim period of eligible costs.

In February 2021, the Company entered into a multi-year contribution agreement (the 2021 SIF Agreement) with the Canadian Government’s Strategic Innovation Fund. Under the 2021 SIF Agreement, the Government of Canada committed up to C$14.1 million in nonrepayable funding which was intended to support research and development related to our EB05 clinical program. No further funding will be received from the 2021 SIF Agreement.

In October 2023, the Company entered into a multi-year contribution agreement (the 2023 SIF Agreement) with the Canadian Government’s Strategic Innovation Fund. Under the 2023 SIF Agreement, the Government of Canada committed up to C$23 million in partially repayable funding toward (i) conducting and completing the Company’s Phase 3 clinical study of its experimental drug EB05 in critical-care patients with Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) caused by COVID-19 or other infectious agents, (ii) submitting EB05 for governmental approvals and manufacturing scale-up, following, and subject to, completing the Phase 3 study and (iii) conducting two non-clinical safety studies to assess the potential long-term impact of EB05 exposure (the Project). Of the C$23 million committed by SIF, up to C$5.8 million is not repayable by the Company. The remaining C$17.2 million is conditionally repayable starting in 2029 only if and when the Company earns gross revenue. The repayable portion would be payable over fifteen (15) years based on a percentage rate of the Company’s annual revenue growth. The maximum amount repayable under the Agreement is 1.4 times the original repayable amount. In addition, the Company is entitled to partial reimbursement of certain eligible expenses under the Agreement.

Under the Agreement, the Company agreed to certain financial and non-financial covenants and other obligations in relation to the Project. Pursuant to the Agreement, certain customary events of default, such as the Company’s or Edesa Biotech Research’s breach of their covenants and obligations under the Agreement, their insolvency, winding up or dissolution, and other similar events, may permit the Government of Canada to declare an event of default under the Agreement. Upon an event of default, subject to applicable cure, the Government of Canada may exercise a number of remedies, including suspending or terminating funding under the Agreement, demanding repayment of funding previously received and/or terminating the Agreement.

The funding and any associated conditional repayments are not secured by any assets of Edesa Biotech Research or the Company.

The Agreement will expire on the later of December 31, 2042 or the date of the last repayment, unless earlier terminated, subject to certain provisions that extend three (3) years beyond the term or early termination of the Agreement.

Under the 2023 SIF Agreement the Company recorded grant income of $0.2 million and $0.6 million for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2024. No grant income was recorded under the 2023 SIF Agreement for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2023.

8. Financial Instruments

(a) Fair values

The Company uses the fair value measurement framework for valuing financial assets and liabilities measured on a recurring basis in situations where other accounting pronouncements either permit or require fair value measurements.

The Company follows the fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. Observable inputs are inputs that reflect assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the Company’s own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances.

There are three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

●

Level 1 – Observable inputs that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

●

Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, or quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active.

●

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability that are supported by little or no market activity.

The carrying value of certain financial instruments such as cash and cash equivalents, accounts and other receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of such instruments.

(b) Interest rate and credit risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the value of a financial instrument might be adversely affected by a change in interest rates. The Company does not believe that the results of operations or cash flows would be affected to any significant degree by a significant change in market interest rates, relative to interest rates on cash and cash equivalents due to the short-term nature of these balances.

The Company is also exposed to credit risk at period end from the carrying value of its cash and cash equivalents and accounts and other receivable. The Company manages this risk by maintaining bank accounts with Canadian Chartered Banks and a U.S. banks believed to be credit worthy and money market mutual funds of U.S. government securities. The Company’s cash is not subject to any external restrictions. The Company assesses the collectability of accounts receivable through a review of the current aging and terms, as well as an analysis of historical collection rates, general economic conditions and credit status of government agencies. Credit risk for the reimbursement grant and HST refunds receivable are not considered significant since amounts are due from the Canadian government’s SIF and the Canada Revenue Agency.

(c) Foreign exchange risk

The Company and its subsidiary have balances in Canadian dollars that give rise to exposure to foreign exchange (FX) risk relating to the impact of translating certain non-U.S. dollar balance sheet accounts as these statements are presented in U.S. dollars. A strengthening U.S. dollar will lead to a FX loss while a weakening U.S. dollar will lead to a FX gain. The Company has not entered into any agreements or purchased any instruments to hedge possible currency risks. At June 30, 2024, the Company and its Canadian subsidiary had assets denominated in Canadian dollars of approximately C$1.0 million and the U.S. dollar exchange rate at this date was equal to 1.3680 Canadian dollars. Based on the exposure at June 30, 2024, a 10% annual change in the Canadian/U.S. exchange rate would impact the Company’s loss and other comprehensive loss by approximately $0.1 million.

(d) Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will encounter difficulty raising liquid funds to meet commitments as they fall due. In meeting its liquidity requirements, the Company closely monitors its forecasted cash requirements with expected cash drawdown.

9. Loss per Share

The Company had securities outstanding which could potentially dilute basic earnings per share in the future but were excluded from the computation of diluted loss per share in the periods presented, as their effect would have been anti-dilutive.

10. Related Party Transactions

During the three and nine months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company paid cash of $20,000 and $60,000, respectively, for a ROU lease from a company controlled by the Company’s CEO. These transactions are in the normal course of operations and are measured at the exchange amount, which is the amount of consideration established and agreed to by both parties. On December 31, 2022, the Company executed a two-year lease extension through December 31, 2024 in accordance with the terms of the original lease agreement. Rent of approximately $7,000 was payable at June 30, 2024. There was no rent payable at June 30, 2023.

In October 2023, we entered into $10.0 million revolving credit agreement with Pardeep Nijhawan Medicine Professional Corporation, an entity controlled by Dr. Pardeep Nijhawan, MD, our Chief Executive Officer and Secretary and member of our board of directors (Credit Agreement), providing an unsecured revolving credit facility, with a credit limit of $3.5 million (Credit Limit) which was available immediately. The line of credit bears interest at the Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce US Base-Interest Rate plus 3% per annum and has a maturity date of March 31, 2026, unless terminated earlier by either party with 90 days’ notice. Advances under the line of credit are tied to a borrowing base (Borrowing Base) consisting of eligible grant receivables from SIF, future potential license fee receivables and any other accounts receivable. At no time shall the aggregate principal amount of all advances outstanding exceed the lesser of (i) the Credit Limit and (ii) an amount equal to 85% of the Borrowing Base. The Company has not drawn any funds from the Credit Agreement. During the three and nine months ended June 30, 2024 the Company incurred a standby charge of $13,000 and $38,000. There was no standby charge in the three and nine months ended June 30, 2023.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

The following management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q as of June 30, 2024 and our audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended September 30, 2023 included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC, on December 15, 2023.

You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements for many reasons, including the risks described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2023 and other reports we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Although we believe the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, they relate only to events as of the date on which the statements are made. We do not intend to update any of the forward-looking statements after the date of this report to conform these statements to actual results or to changes in our expectations, except as required by law.

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based on our unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, and for the nine months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, which we have prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate such estimates and judgments, including those described in greater detail below. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other factors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Overview

We are a biopharmaceutical company developing innovative ways to treat inflammatory and immune-related diseases.

Our approach is to acquire, develop and commercialize drug candidates based on mechanisms of action that have demonstrated proof-of-concept in human subjects. We prioritize our efforts on disease indications where there is compelling scientific rationale, no approved therapies or where there are unmet medical needs, and where there are large addressable market opportunities, among other factors. We have multiple late-stage product candidates in our development pipeline in the fields of respiratory diseases and medical dermatology.

Our most advanced drug candidate is EB05 (paridiprubart). EB05 represents a new class of therapies called Host-Directed Therapeutics (HDTs) that are designed to modulate the body’s own immune response when confronted with infectious diseases or even chemical agents. Importantly, these therapies are designed to work across multiple infectious diseases and threats, and could be stockpiled preemptively ahead of outbreaks. Because they are threat agnostic, HDTs like paridiprubart have the potential to become standard of care in Intensive Care Units (ICUs) and critical countermeasures for both pandemic preparedness and biodefense. We are currently evaluating EB05 as a potential treatment for Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS), a life-threatening form of respiratory failure. Recruitment in a Phase 3 study is ongoing. EB05 has also been included in a U.S. government funded platform study of HDTs.

In addition to EB05, we are developing product candidates for a number of chronic inflammatory and dermatological conditions. We intend to file an investigational new drug application (IND) with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for a future Phase 2 study of paridiprubart as a potential treatment for patients with progressive pulmonary fibrosis, a serious chronic disease that causes lung inflammation and scarring. For our EB06 monoclonal candidate, we have received regulatory approval by Health Canada to conduct a future Phase 2 study in patients with moderate to severe nonsegmental vitiligo, a common autoimmune disorder that causes skin to lose its color in patches. We plan to seek regulatory approval for this vitiligo study in the U.S. as well. In addition, we are developing an sPLA2 inhibitor, EB01 (daniluromer), as a topical treatment for chronic Allergic Contact Dermatitis (ACD), a common occupational skin condition. We intend to seek strategic arrangements to further develop and/or monetize this late-stage clinical asset, following favorable Phase 2b results of 1.0% EB01 cream.

Recent Developments

Government-Funded Platform Study in General ARDS

In June 2024, our drug candidate, EB05, was selected by the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (BARDA), part of the Administration for Strategic Preparedness and Response within the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, for evaluation in a U.S. government-funded clinical study. The Phase 2 platform trial will be a randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled, multi-center U.S. clinical trial to investigate novel threat-agnostic host-directed therapeutics, including EB05, in hospitalized adult patients with ARDS due to a variety of causes. For the EB05 cohort of the study, patients will be randomized one-to-one to either EB05 plus Standard of Care (SOC) or to a placebo plus SOC control arm. Edesa plans to provide drug product for the study as well as technical support.

Given this opportunity, we are currently evaluating our broader development strategy for the development of EB05 to align our activities with sources of government funding and the greater market opportunity for general ARDS, including amending our Canadian government supported Phase 3 ARDS study, which is exclusively recruiting patients hospitalized with Covid-19. Potential options include, but are not limited to, expanding the enrollment criteria of the Phase 3 study, refocusing the project on manufacturing scale-up, extending the project timeline and/or pausing recruitment while awaiting results of the BARDA study. Should we decide to make changes to our ongoing Phase 3 trial and manufacturing plans, we may be required to renegotiate the terms of our 2023 SIF Agreement.

Significant Accounting Policies and Estimates

See Note 2 to our financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2023 for a discussion of our significant accounting policies and estimates. There have been no material changes to such significant accounting policies or estimates.

Results of Operations

Comparison of the Three Months Ended June 30, 2024 and 2023

Total operating expenses decreased by $0.2 million to $1.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 compared to $2.1 million for the same period last year:

●

Research and development (R&D) expenses decreased by $0.1 million to $0.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 compared to $1.0 million for the same period last year primarily due to decreased external research expenses related to our ongoing EB05 phase 3 clinical study and the completed EB01 phase 2 study, partially offset by an increase in expenses related to manufacturing of our investigational drug, paridiprubart. Our R&D expenses consist primarily of employee-related expenses, including salaries, benefits, taxes, travel, and share-based compensation expense for personnel in R&D functions; expenses related to process development and production of product candidates paid to contract manufacturing organizations, including the cost of acquiring, developing, and manufacturing research material; costs associated with clinical activities, including expenses for contract research organizations; and clinical trials and activities related to regulatory filings for our product candidates, including regulatory consultants.

●

General and administrative (G&A) expenses were unchanged at $1.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2023. Our G&A expenses consist primarily of salaries and related costs for our employees in administrative, executive and finance functions. G&A expenses also include professional fees for legal, accounting, audit, tax and consulting services, insurance, office, and travel expenses.

Total other income increased by $185,000 to $264,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2024 compared to $79,000 for the same period last year and was composed of the following:

●

Grant income increased by $0.2 million to $0.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024. There was no grant income in the comparative period. The increase is related to the grant income associated with the activities under the 2023 SIF Agreement.

●

Interest income decreased by $50,000 to $33,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2024 compared to $83,000 for the same period last year primarily due to lower cash balances.

●

Foreign exchange loss was $5,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2024 compared to a loss of $3,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2023.

For the three months ended June 30, 2024, our net loss was $1.7 million, or $0.52 per common share, compared to a net loss of $2.0 million, or $0.68 per common share for the three months ended June 30, 2023.

Comparison of the Nine Months Ended June 30, 2024 and 2023

Total operating expenses decreased by $0.9 million to $6.0 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2024 compared to $6.9 million for the same period last year:

●

R&D expenses decreased by $1.0 million to $2.8 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2024 compared to $3.8 million for the same period last year primarily due to decreased external research expenses related to our completed EB01 phase 2 study and a decrease in non-cash share-based compensation and labor costs, partially offset by an increase in expenses for our ongoing EB05 phase 3 clinical study and for manufacturing of our investigational drug, paridiprubart. Our R&D expenses consist primarily of employee-related expenses, including salaries, benefits, taxes, travel, and share-based compensation expense for personnel in R&D functions; expenses related to process development and production of product candidates paid to contract manufacturing organizations, including the cost of acquiring, developing, and manufacturing research material; costs associated with clinical activities, including expenses for contract research organizations; and clinical trials and activities related to regulatory filings for our product candidates, including regulatory consultants.

●

G&A expenses increased by $0.2 million to $3.2 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2024 compared to $3.0 million for the same period last year primarily due to increased fees for professional services, partially offset by a decrease in non-cash share-based compensation. Our G&A expenses consist primarily of salaries and related costs for our employees in administrative, executive and finance functions. G&A expenses also include professional fees for legal, accounting, audit, tax and consulting services, insurance, office, and travel expenses.

Total other income increased by $0.6 million to $0.8 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2024 compared to $0.2 million for the same period last year and was composed of the following:

●

Grant income increased by $0.6 million to $0.6 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2024. There was no grant income in the comparative period. The increase is related to the grant income associated with the activities under the 2023 SIF Agreement.

●

Interest income decreased by $81,000 to $137,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 2024 compared to $218,000 for the same period last year primarily due to a decrease in cash balances.

●

Miscellaneous other income was $15,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 2024 related to loan forgiveness on the CEBA loan that was repaid in the quarter.

●

Foreign exchange loss was $9,700 for the nine months ended June 30, 2024 compared to a loss of $18,100 for the nine months ended June 30, 2023.

For the nine months ended June 30, 2024, our net loss was $5.2 million, or $1.64 per common share, compared to a net loss of $6.7 million, or $2.37 per common share for the nine months ended June 30, 2023.

Capital Expenditures

Our capital expenditures primarily consist of computer and office equipment. There were no significant capital expenditures for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As a clinical-stage company we have not generated significant revenue, and we expect to incur operating losses as we continue our efforts to acquire, develop, seek regulatory approval for and commercialize product candidates and execute on our strategic initiatives. Our operations have historically been funded through issuances of common shares, exercises of common share purchase warrants, convertible preferred shares, convertible loans, government grants and tax incentives.

Our primary use of cash is to fund our operating expenses, which consist of R&D and G&A expenditures. Cash used to fund operating expenses is impacted by the timing of when we pay these expenses, as reflected in the change in accounts payable and accrued expenses. Net cash used in operating activities was $3.9 million and $5.2 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. We incurred net losses of $5.2 million and $6.7 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023.

In October 2023, we entered into the 2023 SIF Agreement with the Canadian Government’s SIF. Under the 2023 SIF Agreement, the Government of Canada committed up to C$23 million in partially repayable funding. Of the C$23 million committed by SIF, up to C$5.8 million is not repayable by us. The remaining C$17.2 million is conditionally repayable starting in 2029 only if and when we earn gross revenue. In February 2021, we entered into the 2021 SIF Agreement, pursuant to which we were eligible to receive cash reimbursements up to C$14.1 million in the aggregate for certain R&D expenses related to our EB05 clinical development program. All potential funding available under the 2021 SIF Agreement has been received. For the three and nine months ended June 30, 2024 we recorded grant income of $0.2 million and $0.6 million respectively, related to the 2023 SIF Agreement. There was no grant income recognized in the comparative periods.

In October 2023, we entered into $10.0 million revolving credit agreement with Pardeep Nijhawan Medicine Professional Corporation, an entity controlled by Dr. Pardeep Nijhawan, MD, our Chief Executive Officer and Secretary and member of our board of directors (Credit Agreement), providing an unsecured revolving credit facility, with a credit limit of $3.5 million (Credit Limit) which was available immediately. The line of credit bears interest at the Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce US Base-Interest Rate plus 3% per annum and has a maturity date of March 31, 2026, unless terminated earlier by either party with 90 days’ notice. Advances under the line of credit are tied to a borrowing base (Borrowing Base) consisting of eligible grant receivables from SIF, future potential license fee receivables and any other accounts receivable. At no time shall the aggregate principal amount of all advances outstanding exceed the lesser of (i) the Credit Limit and (ii) an amount equal to 85% of the Borrowing Base. We have not drawn any funds from the Credit Agreement.

In August 2022, we filed a $150.0 million shelf registration statement. In March 2023, we entered into an equity distribution agreement with Canaccord, as sales agent, pursuant to which we may offer and sell, from time to time, common shares through an at-the-market equity offering program for up to $20 million in gross proceeds, subject to certain offering limitations that currently allow us to offer and sell common shares having an aggregate gross sales price of up to $8.4 million (Canaccord ATM). There was approximately $6.3 million of available capacity on the Canaccord ATM as of June 30, 2024. We have no obligation to sell any of the common shares and may at any time suspend sales or terminate the equity distribution agreement in accordance with its terms. For the three months ended June 30, 2024, we sold a total of 31,421 common shares pursuant to the agreement for net proceeds of $0.1 million after deducting commissions and costs of $40,000. For the nine months ended June 30, 2024, we sold a total of 171,916 common shares pursuant to the agreement for net proceeds of $0.6 million after deducting commissions and costs of $140,000.

In November 2022, we completed a private placement of units consisting of 384,475 common shares, 12-month warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 192,248 common shares and 3-year warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 192,248 common shares. The gross proceeds from this offering were approximately $3.0 million, before offering expenses.

At June 30, 2024, we had an accumulated deficit of $57.6 million and working capital of $0.7 million, including $2.0 million in cash and cash equivalents. Subsequent to the quarter, we collected the receivable from 2023 SIF Agreement for $0.3 million from Canadian government. We plan to finance company operations over the course of the next twelve months with cash and cash equivalents on hand, including net proceeds from the Canaccord ATM, advances under the Credit Agreement and reimbursements of eligible R&D expenses under the 2023 SIF Agreement with the Canadian government. Management has flexibility to adjust this timeline by making changes to planned expenditures related to, among other factors, the size and timing of clinical trial expenditures and manufacturing campaigns, staffing levels, and the acquisition or in-licensing of new product candidates. To help fund our operations and meet our obligations in the future, we plan to seek additional financing through the sale of equity, government grants, debt financings or other capital sources, including potential future licensing, collaboration or similar arrangements with third parties or other strategic transactions. If we raise additional funds by issuing equity securities, our shareholders will experience dilution. Debt financing, if available, would result in increased fixed payment obligations and may involve agreements that include covenants limiting or restricting our ability to take specific actions, such as incurring additional debt, making capital expenditures or declaring dividends. Any debt financing or additional equity that we raise may contain terms, such as liquidation and other preferences that are not favorable to us or our existing shareholders. If we raise additional funds through collaboration and licensing arrangements with third parties, it may be necessary to relinquish valuable rights to our technologies, future revenue streams or product candidates or to grant licenses on terms that may not be favorable to us. Adequate funding may not be available to us on acceptable terms, or at all. If we fail to raise capital or enter into such agreements as and when needed, we may have to significantly delay, scale back or discontinue the development of our product candidates.

We expect to continue to incur substantial additional operating losses for at least the next several years as we continue to develop our product candidates and seek marketing approval and, subject to obtaining such approval, the eventual commercialization of our product candidates. If we obtain marketing approval for our product candidates, we will incur significant sales, marketing and outsourced manufacturing expenses. In addition, we expect to incur additional expenses to add operational, financial and information systems and personnel, including personnel to support our planned product commercialization efforts. We also expect to incur significant costs to comply with corporate governance, internal controls and similar requirements applicable to us as a public company. To continue to grow our business over the longer term, we plan to commit substantial resources to research and development, clinical trials of our product candidates, and other operations and potential product acquisitions and in licensing. We have evaluated and expect to continue to evaluate a wide array of strategic transactions as part of our plan to acquire or in license and develop additional products and product candidates to augment our internal development pipeline. Strategic transaction opportunities that we may pursue could materially affect our liquidity and capital resources and may require us to incur additional indebtedness, seek equity capital or both. In addition, we may pursue development, acquisition or in licensing of approved or development products in new or existing therapeutic areas or continue the expansion of our existing operations. Accordingly, we expect to continue to opportunistically seek access to additional capital to license or acquire additional products, product candidates or companies to expand our operations, or for general corporate purposes. Strategic transactions may require us to raise additional capital through one or more public or private debt or equity financings or could be structured as a collaboration or partnering arrangement. We have no arrangements, agreements, or understandings in place at the present time to enter into any acquisition, in licensing or similar strategic business transaction.

Cash Flows

Net cash used in operating activities

Net cash used in operating activities was $3.9 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2024 compared to $5.2 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2023, primarily due to a decrease in R&D expenses of $1.0 million and an investment in working capital of $0.1 million, partially offset by a reduction in non-cash stock based compensation of $0.3 million.

Net cash used in investing activities

There was no cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Net cash provided by financing activities

Net cash provided by financing activities was $0.6 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2024 as compared to $4.4 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2023. In the current period, we received proceeds of $0.7 million from the Canaccord ATM, partially offset by issuance costs of $76,000 and the repayment of debt of $29,500. In the comparative period, we received proceeds of $3.0 million from a private placement in November 2022, offset by issuance costs of $0.1 million for net proceeds of $2.9 million; we received $0.8 million in proceeds from the exercise of warrants and $0.7 million in net proceeds from the Canaccord ATM.

Research and Development

Our primary business is the development of innovative therapeutics for inflammatory and immune-related diseases with clear unmet medical needs. We focus our resources on R&D activities, including the conduct of clinical studies and product development, and expense such costs as they are incurred. R&D expenses, which have historically varied based on the level of activity in our clinical programs, are significantly influenced by study initiation expenses and patient recruitment rates, and as a result are expected to continue to fluctuate, sometimes substantially. Our R&D expenses were $0.9 million and $2.8million for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2024 compared to $1.0 million and $3.8 million for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2023. The decrease was due primarily to lower external research expenses related to our ongoing clinical studies.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future material effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures, or capital resources.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures to provide reasonable assurance that material information related to our Company, including our consolidated subsidiaries, is made known to senior management, including our Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, by others within those entities on a timely basis so that appropriate decisions can be made regarding public disclosure.

We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Principal Executive Officer and our Principal Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of June 30, 2024. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2024, were effective.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Basis of Accounting, Policy [Policy Text Block]	The accompanying unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (U.S. GAAP) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q. They do not include all information and footnotes necessary for a fair presentation of financial position, results of operations and cash flows in conformity with U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. These unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2023, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on December 15, 2023. The accompanying unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated on consolidation. All adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments and accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations for the periods presented have been included in the interim periods. Operating results for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for other interim periods or the fiscal year ending September 30, 2024.
Use of Estimates, Policy [Policy Text Block]	Use of estimates The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the period or year. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Areas where significant judgment is involved in making estimates are valuation of accounts and other receivable; valuation and useful lives of property and equipment; intangible assets; right-of-use assets; deferred income taxes; the determination of fair value of share-based compensation; the determination of fair value of warrants in order to allocate proceeds from equity issuances; and forecasting future cash flows for assessing the going concern assumption.
Foreign Currency Transactions and Translations Policy [Policy Text Block]	Functional and reporting currencies The consolidated financial statements of the Company are presented in U.S. dollars, unless otherwise stated, which is the Company’s and its wholly owned subsidiary’s, Edesa Biotech USA, Inc., functional currency. The functional currency of the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Edesa Biotech Research, Inc., as determined by management, is Canadian dollars.
