MindMed Reports Third Quarter 2024 Financial Results and Business Updates

--On track to initiate the Phase 3 Voyage study of MM120 Orally Disintegrating Tablet (ODT) in Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD) in the fourth quarter of 2024; 12-week topline data anticipated in the first half of 2026--

--On track to initiate the Phase 3 Panorama study of MM120 ODT in GAD and the Phase 3 Emerge study of MM120 ODT in Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) in the first half of 2025--

--Cash and cash equivalents of $295.3 million as of September 30, 2024, expected to fund operations into 2027 and extend at least 12 months beyond the first Phase 3 topline data readout for MM120 ODT in GAD--

--Company to host a conference call today at 4:30 p.m. EST--

NEW YORK, November 7, 2024 – Mind Medicine (MindMed) Inc. (NASDAQ: MNMD), (the "Company" or "MindMed"), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company developing novel product candidates to treat brain health disorders, today announced its financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2024, and provided a business update.

“This is a pivotal moment for MindMed as we prepare to initiate Voyage, our first Phase 3 study of MM120 ODT in GAD,” said Rob Barrow, Chief Executive Officer of MindMed. “Beyond Voyage, we are on track to initiate two additional Phase 3 studies: the Panorama study, our second trial in GAD, and the Emerge study, our first trial of MM120 ODT in MDD. Our Phase 3 development strategy leverages high-performing clinical trial sites from our Phase 2 study, as well as thoughtfully aligned protocols, which we expect to enable efficient enrollment across GAD and MDD. Our strong execution throughout the year has positioned us as a well-financed, late-stage clinical leader, set to launch three Phase 3 studies targeting two indications affecting approximately 51 million adults in the U.S. I could not be more pleased with our progress as we continue to build a high-performing organization dedicated to transforming the standard of care for people with brain health disorders.”

Program Updates and Anticipated Milestones

Third Quarter 2024 Financial Results

Cash Balance. As of September 30, 2024, MindMed had cash and cash equivalents totaling $295.3 million compared to $99.7 million as of December 31, 2023.

The Company believes that its cash and cash equivalents as of September 30, 2024, will be sufficient to fund the Company’s operations into 2027. Based on the Company’s current operating plan and anticipated R&D milestones, the Company expects its cash runway to extend at least 12 months beyond its first Phase 3 topline data readout for MM120 ODT in GAD.

Net Cash Used in Operating Activities. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, net cash used in operating activities was $53.8 million, compared to $43.8 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2023.

Research and Development (R&D). R&D expenses were $17.2 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2024, compared to $13.2 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2023, an increase of $4.0 million. The increase was primarily due to $2.1 million in expenses related to our MM120 program supporting the advancement into pivotal studies for the treatment of adults with GAD, $0.9 million in expenses related to our MM402 program, $0.6 million in internal personnel costs as a result of increasing research and development capacities, and an increase of $0.4 million in expenses related to preclinical activities.

---

General and Administrative (G&A). G&A expenses were $7.6 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2024, compared to $8.4 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2023, a decrease of $0.8 million. The decrease was primarily attributable to lower spending in legal and commercial activities, partially offset by an increase in stock-based compensation expense.

Net Loss. Net loss for the quarter ended September 30, 2024, was $13.7 million, compared to $17.9 million for the same period in 2023, a decrease of $4.2 million. The decrease was primarily due to changes in the fair value of warrants issued in our September 2022 underwritten offering of $5.3 million partially offset by an increase in research and development expense.

About MM120

MM120 (lysergide D-tartrate or LSD) is a synthetic ergotamine belonging to the group of classic, or serotonergic, psychedelics, which acts as a partial agonist at human serotonin-2A (5-hydroxytryptamine-2A [5-HT2A]) receptors. MindMed is developing MM120, the tartrate salt form of lysergide, for GAD and MDD and is exploring its potential applications in other serious brain health disorders. Based on the significant unmet medical need in the treatment of GAD – especially in patients who do not respond to or tolerate currently available medications – along with the initial clinical data from Phase 2b and other research conducted by MindMed, the U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA) has designated MM120 for GAD as a breakthrough therapy. The MM120 ODT Phase 3 clinical development program includes the Voyage and Panaroma studies in GAD and the Emerge study in MDD. Additional clinical indications under consideration.

About MM402

MM402 is the Company’s proprietary form of R(-)-MDMA (rectus-3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine), being developed for the treatment of core symptoms of ASD. MDMA is a synthetic molecule that is often referred to as an empathogen because it is reported to increase feelings of connectedness and compassion. Preclinical studies of R(-)-MDMA demonstrate its acute pro-social and empathogenic effects, while its diminished dopaminergic activity suggest that it has the potential to exhibit less stimulant activity, neurotoxicity, hyperthermia and abuse liability compared to racemic MDMA or the S(+)-enantiomer.
