AC Immune reports Q3 EPS (CHF 0.16) vs. CHF 0.05 last year

Reports Q3 revenue CHF 939,000 vs. CHF $25.5M last year. Andrea Pfeifer, CEO of AC Immune (ACIU) SA, commented: “We have sharpened our investment focus on our most valuable assets following a strategic review. Our pipeline assets have the potential to transform treatment and enable prevention of neurodegenerative disease. Our active immunotherapies for precision prevention of neurodegenerative diseases continue to make strong progress through Phase 2 development in Alzheimer’s disease and Parkinson’s disease. These are complemented by novel small-molecule therapeutics targeting intracellular mechanisms of neurodegenerative diseases. Importantly, our recent pipeline prioritization has extended our cash runway to the end of Q3 2027, without including anticipated milestone payments from our existing collaborations or potential payments from new business development deals. We are now moving towards multiple value-inflection points. Further interim results from Part 1 of the VacSYn trial of ACI-7104.056, our wholly owned anti-alpha-synuclein active immunotherapy for Parkinson’s disease, are expected this quarter. Our two partnered active immunotherapy programs are continuing to progress according to plan. We also published data in The Lancet’s eBioMedicine on ACI-35.030 with the first clinical demonstration that our SupraAntigen(R) platform generates highly differentiated active immunotherapies compared with other approaches, even with the same peptide sequence. This technology also powers our ACI-24.060 anti-Abeta active immunotherapy program, for which additional results are expected in H1 next year.”
