    BenevolentAI heeft tijd nodig voor contracten
    19-sep-2024 08:35

    Mogelijk nog niet voor einde jaar.

    (ABM FN-Dow Jones) BenevolentAI meldt aanzienlijke progressie te boeken met kandidaatmedicijnen, maar de nieuwe focus op de verkoop van licenties heeft nog geen overeenkomsten opgeleverd en dat zal misschien dit jaar ook niet meer lukken. Dat stelde het bedrijf met een beursnotering in Amsterdam donderdag bij zijn halfjaarcijfers.

    De progressie is onder andere zichtbaar in de bestaande samenwerking met AstraZeneca, dat in de afgelopen periode twee nieuwe targets toevoegde aan zijn portefeuilles voor hartfalen en systemische lupus, stelde CEO Joerg Moeller.

    Het sluiten van een overeenkomst om licenties voor kandidaatmedicijnen te verkopen kan moeilijk worden voor het einde van het lopende boekjaar, stelde het bedrijf, ondanks de inspanningen die hier vol op gericht zijn. Dit heeft te maken met de complexe aard van zulke overeenkomsten die nauwkeurige onderhandeling en precieze strategische eensgezindheid vereisen.

    Er lopen gesprekken met een partner over de verdere ontwikkeling of licentieverkoop van het middel BEN-8744, een behandeling voor patiënten met gematigde tot zware ulceratieve colitis (UC) of ontsteking va dne dikke darm, die kan ook worden onderzocht voor andere interne ontstekingsziekten, zoals de ziekte van Crohn.

    BEN-34712 wordt ontwikkeld als behandeling voor ALS en zal naar verwachting klaar zijn voor vervolgstudies in de tweede helft van 2024. Ook het kandidaatmedicijn BEN-28010 tegen hersentumoren is klaar voor verdere ontwikkeling met een partner of licentiëring, aldus het bedrijf.

    Geld in kas voor ruim een jaar

    BenevolentAI boekte een operationeel verlies van 32 miljoen pond. Het verlies was 30 procent kleiner dan een jaar eerder door lagere reorganisatiekosten en prioritisering van onderzoek in de eigen pijplijn.

    De omzet daalde 46 procent tot 2,8 miljoen pond, door het afschalen van de samenwerking met AstraZeneca in het vinden van targets. De nieuwe samenwerking met Merck genereert vervangende omzet, aldus het bedrijf.

    De kaspositie daalde met 48 procent van 73 miljoen naar 38 miljoen pond. Dit is voldoende tot het einde van het derde kwartaal van 2025, stelde het bedrijf.

    Het bedrijf heeft in juli Deutsche Numis benoemd als adviseur voor de Britse en Europese kapitaalmarkten.

    BenevolentAI unveils major strategic overhaul with return to original mission

    Changes mark a return to BenevolentAI’s foundational strengths
    Initiates significant organisational restructuring
    Announces intention to evaluate delisting from Euronext Amsterdam

    London, UK, 11 December 2024: BenevolentAI (“the Company”), a pioneer in integrating artificial intelligence with biopharmaceutical development, today unveils a major strategic overhaul to return the Company to its founding TechBio mission. These changes mark a return to the Company’s foundational strengths, refocusing efforts on core technologies and innovation to better develop transformative drug discovery and development solutions. In parallel, and to support this, the Company has initiated significant organisational and budgetary changes that extend the Company’s runway into 2027. As part of this effort, the Company is also exploring options to delist from Euronext Amsterdam.

    Kenneth Mulvany, Executive Chairman, Founder and activist shareholder said:
    "For over a decade, BenevolentAI has been dedicated to advancing AI-driven drug discovery, a field that was once revolutionary, is now a fundamental expectation for modern R&D organisations. Despite widespread industry adoption, many companies still struggle to effectively develop these capabilities. With our extensive experience and numerous successes, we are uniquely positioned to lead the next generation of tech-bio innovation.

    “Having worked tirelessly to rejoin the Board, I have directed the Company’s focus back to our core mission—technology in service of science. Our strategic direction builds on our strengths, empowering the biopharma industry with cutting-edge AI technologies backed by our compelling industry and patient proof points.

    “Since rejoining the Board, I have initiated a new roadmap that returns our technologies to more adaptable, standalone products tailored to meet our partners’ drug development needs. This ensures quicker integration and versatility across various phases of the development process.

    “Reshaping BenevolentAI involved tough but necessary decisions to strategically allocate finances, enhance efficiency, refocus business development, and invest in targeted product initiatives. These challenging decisions are vital to enable sustainable growth and deliver value to our shareholders, partners, and the patients we ultimately serve.”

    Reshaping operations and prioritising core strengths
    BenevolentAI is taking significant steps to streamline operations and reduce costs, recognising the need for a more focused and efficient operational structure and cost base. This initiative is part of a broader strategy to ensure that restructuring is effective, lasting, and aligns with long-term strategic goals. As part of these efforts, the Company will reshape its workforce and will adhere to the UK Collective Consultation for Redundancy Rules and Procedures. The decision to reduce roles does not come lightly, and the Company is deeply aware of the impact this will have on our valued employees.

    Before considering changes to its workforce, the Board extensively explored other areas where costs could be reduced. These efforts included introducing a large number of cost efficiencies across the organisation to create a more focused and agile company, better positioned to respond to market demands and deliver shareholder value.

    Furthermore, following thorough review and deliberation, the Board has concluded that it is in the best interests of the Company to evaluate delisting from Euronext Amsterdam. The substantial costs associated with maintaining public status divert resources away from our core activities. By reallocating these funds toward the development and commercialisation of AI technologies, BenevolentAI can more effectively meet partners’ needs. Additionally, transitioning to a private company would grant greater operational agility and reduced corporate complexity, enabling the Company to better lead the dynamic TechBio sector it has helped to pioneer and develop over the last decade.

    In parallel, the Company is reallocating investment to reinforce its foundational technology strengths. This includes transforming existing technology into more flexible, standalone product offerings designed to address stated biopharma partner needs, enabling faster integration and customised applications across a range of drug development needs. These adjustments are designed to better support partners, generate sustainable value, and maintain leadership in transforming drug discovery and development.

    Partnership strategy
    Going forward, while we will maintain our existing drug development partnering strategy for clinical-stage and late pre-clinical/IND ready programmes, we will significantly reduce our balance sheet risk by partnering our earlier-stage assets sooner in their development cycle.

    Financial outlook
    The anticipated savings from streamlined operational efforts, including workforce changes, decreased expenditure on early-stage drug development, and delisting from Euronext Amsterdam are expected to reduce the Company’s cost base to significantly extend its cash runway into 2027. This increased financial stability enables BenevolentAI to focus resources on advancing critical innovations and reinforcing its role as a trusted partner in the biopharmaceutical sector.

    Peter Allen, Non-Executive Director and Deputy Chair commented: “The Board is wholly behind this strategic direction and restoration of the business to its TechBio roots. We have conducted a comprehensive review of every aspect of the Company’s spending to ensure alignment with its foundational principles of entrepreneurial leadership, lean operations, and sharp commercial focus. These principles are designed to benefit shareholders, business partners, and ultimately patients.

    “BenevolentAI’s technology has enabled significant achievements, reflecting its leadership in the field and dedication to advancing healthcare through innovation. These achievements include identifying a previously unknown disease mechanism that led to an FDA-approved drug, advancing a lead clinical candidate to Phase 2 readiness through the Company’s technology, and progressing two additional drug candidates toward IND readiness. The collaboration with AstraZeneca has also successfully achieved seven milestones. These accomplishments are direct results of BenevolentAI’s capabilities, underscoring its commitment to delivering tangible, real-world benefits. The focus now is on turning these advancements into more modular products that address specific industry needs, driving their adoption through targeted collaborations with partners.”

    [...]

    De notering stopzetten zonder bod op de aandelen is natuurlijk een slecht idee.
    Volgens mij kan dat ook niet, dus moeten ze een bieder gaan zoeken.
    Dat lijkt me ook.

    In augustus plakte Deutsche Bank nog een koersdoel op het aandeel van euro 2,70……Dat lijkt me “iets” te overdreven, maar huidige aandeelhouders willen ongetwijfeld meer terugzien dan de huidige koers.
