iBio Reports Fiscal Third Quarter 2025 Financial Results
SAN DIEGO, May 2, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- iBio, Inc. (Nasdaq:IBIO), today reported financial results for the third quarter ended March 31, 2025, and provided a corporate update on its progress.
“During the third quarter we were able to broaden our access to investors given our move to Nasdaq and subsequently in April strengthened our financial position with a $6.2 million warrant inducement equity raise, positioning us for continued growth and keeping us on track for regulatory submission of IBIO-600 in 2026,” said Martin Brenner, Ph.D., DVM, iBio’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Scientific Officer. “At the same time, we made significant strides in our pipeline, with promising non-human primate data for IBIO-600 and the in-licensing of a first-in-class Activin E antibody, two antibodies we truly believe are bringing us closer to fulfilling our mission of delivering transformative therapies to patients suffering from cardiometabolic diseases and obesity.”
Fiscal Third Quarter 2025 & Recent Corporate Updates:
| ● | Began trading on the Nasdaq Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol “IBIO,” marking a significant corporate milestone that enhances visibility, improves trading liquidity, and aligns with the company’s strategy to attract long-term institutional investors. |
| ● | Reported non-human primate data for IBIO-600, a potentially best-in-class long-acting anti-myostatin antibody, demonstrating extended half-life and dose dependent muscle growth. Simultaneously, iBio announced interim in vivo results for a first-in-class Activin E antibody showing fat-selective weight loss alone and in combination with semaglutide. |
| ● | In-licensed the aforementioned first-in-class Activin E-targeting antibody from AstralBio, expanding iBio’s cardiometabolic and obesity pipeline. |
| ● | Raised $6.2 million in gross proceeds through a warrant inducement transaction with institutional investors, strengthening our balance sheet and providing additional working capital to support advancements in our pipeline. |
Fiscal Third Quarter 2025 Financial Results:
| ● | R&D expenses for the three months ending March 31, 2025 and 2024 were $1.9 million and $0.9 million, respectively, an increase of approximately $1.0 million. The growth in R&D expenses is mainly due to increased spending on consultants and outside services, consumable supplies, and personnel-related costs as a result of advancing research activities to support our IBIO-600 and Activin E programs. |
| ● | G&A expenses for the three months ending March 31, 2025 and 2024 were approximately $3.0 million and $2.7 million, respectively, an increase of $0.3 million. The increase is primarily attributable to growth in IT related costs, consulting fees and franchise taxes, partially offset by lower professional service fees. |
| ● | Net loss from continuing operations for the three months ending March 31, 2025 was approximately $4.9 million, or $0.49 per share, compared to a net loss from continuing operations of approximately $2.6 million, or $0.71 per share, in the same period of fiscal 2024. |
| ● | Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash as of March 31, 2025, was approximately $5.2 million, inclusive of $0.2 million of restricted cash. Subsequent to the warrant inducement transaction in April, cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash was approximately $10.5 million as of May 1, 2025. |
