Therapeutics Reports Third Quarter 2021 Financial Results
Calif.-(BUSINESS WIRE)-November 12, 2021-AgeX Therapeutics, Inc. ("AgeX"; NYSE American:
AGE), a biotechnology company developing therapeutics for human aging and regeneration, reported its financial and operating results
for the quarter ended September 30, 2021.
and Capital Resources
of November 12, 2021, AgeX has $1.5 million of funds remaining for borrowings under two credit facilities from Juvenescence
Limited ("Juvenescence"). In addition, AgeX may sell up to $12.1 million of its common stock in "at-the-market"
transactions through a Sales Agreement with Chardan Capital, LLC as a sales agent.
Concern Considerations
required under Accounting Standards Update 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements-Going Concern (ASC 205-40), AgeX evaluates
whether conditions and/or events raise substantial doubt about its ability to meet its future financial obligations as they become due
within one year after the date its financial statements are issued. Based on AgeX's most recent projected cash flows, AgeX believes
that its cash and cash equivalents and available sources of debt and equity capital would not be sufficient to satisfy AgeX's anticipated
operating and other funding requirements for the twelve months following the filing of AgeX's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for
the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021. These factors raise substantial doubt regarding the ability of AgeX to continue as
and cash equivalents, and restricted cash totaled $0.8 million as of September 30, 2021. Since October 1, 2021, AgeX has received an
additional $0.5 million of cash through a loan from Juvenescence.
Quarter 2021 Operating Results
following comparisons exclude the impact of the operations of LifeMap Sciences, Inc. ("LifeMap Sciences") which have been
presented in AgeX's consolidated financial results as discontinued operations for all periods presented due to the disposition
of AgeX's shares of LifeMap Sciences in a cash-out merger during March 2021.
Total revenues for the third quarter of 2021 were $24,000 as compared with $69,000 for the third quarter of 2020, primarily comprised
of allowable expenses under a research grant from the NIH and sales of research products including stem cell products.
expenses: Operating expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2021 were $1.7 million as compared to $2.4 million for the
same period in 2020.
and development expenses decreased by $0.4 million to $0.3 million during the three months ended September 30, 2021 from $0.7 million
during the same period of 2020. The decrease was primarily attributable to a reduction in research and development related activities
that began in May 2020 and shut down of our lab facilities as of December 31, 2020, the date on which our office and laboratory lease
agreement expired. Effective January 1, 2021, AgeX relocated its principal offices leased space at a lower rent that includes office
space, office furniture rental, janitorial services, utilities and internet service.
and administrative expenses decreased by $0.4 million to $1.4 million during the three months ended September 30, 2021 from $1.8 million
during the same period in 2020 largely due to certain non-recurring project related expenses incurred which started from the third quarter
in 2020 through the second quarter in 2021.
expense, net: Other expense, net for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 consisted primarily of amortization of deferred
debt cost to interest expense.
Therapeutics, Inc. (NYSE American: AGE) is focused on developing and commercializing innovative therapeutics to treat human diseases
to increase healthspan and combat the effects of aging. AgeX's PureStem and UniverCyte manufacturing and
immunotolerance technologies are designed to work together to generate highly defined, universal, allogeneic, off-the-shelf pluripotent
stem cell-derived young cells of any type for application in a variety of diseases with a high unmet medical need. AgeX has two preclinical
cell therapy programs: AGEX-VASC1 (vascular progenitor cells) for tissue ischemia and AGEX-BAT1 (brown fat cells) for Type II diabetes.
AgeX's revolutionary longevity platform induced Tissue Regeneration (iTR ) aims to unlock cellular immortality and regenerative
capacity to reverse age-related changes within tissues. HyStem is AgeX's delivery technology to stably engraft
PureStem or other cell therapies in the body. AgeX is seeking opportunities to establish licensing and collaboration arrangements around
its broad IP estate and proprietary technology platforms and therapy product candidates.
