Insights

Dyadic's first quarter financial results reveal a complex picture. While the company reported a significant increase in $12.1 million in cash and investment-grade securities, compared to $7.3 million at the end of 2023, there was a notable decrease in revenue. The revenue dropped from $934,000 in Q1 2023 to $335,000 in Q1 2024, mainly due to the winding down of several large research collaborations.

The cost of revenue also decreased from $727,000 to $144,000, which aligns with the decline in revenue. This implies that Dyadic has been managing its expenses effectively in response to reduced revenue streams. However, the increase in general and administrative expenses by 20.9% to $1,789,000 is a concern, reflecting higher business development and investor relations expenses, audit fees and management incentives.

Despite the increased cash reserves, the net loss for Q1 2024 widened to $2,010,000 compared to $956,000 in Q1 2023. This was partly due to the absence of the $989,000 gain from the sale of the company's equity interest in Alphazyme LLC in 2023. Given these factors, while the strengthened cash position is a positive sign, the revenue drop and increased expenses warrant caution.

The successful completion of the DYAI-100 Phase 1 clinical trial is a significant milestone for Dyadic. The trial demonstrated the safety and antibody response of their recombinant protein receptor binding domain booster vaccine candidate for COVID-19. This achievement not only validates the C1 platform's capability to produce safe proteins but also lays a solid foundation for future human and animal vaccine applications.

The collaboration with the Vaccine and Immunotherapy Center at Massachusetts General Hospital, the strategic partnership with Rabian BV for rabies vaccines and the advancements in the H5N1 bird flu vaccine candidate demonstrate Dyadic's versatility in addressing diverse infectious diseases. The manuscript publication in Nature Communications further enhances the credibility of their C1-produced monoclonal antibodies.

However, the next steps involve securing regulatory approvals for further clinical trials, which can be lengthy and uncertain. Investors should monitor progress closely, especially any advancements toward Phase 2 trials or commercial applications. Overall, these developments indicate a promising trajectory for Dyadic's therapeutic and vaccine pipeline, but the journey to market approval and commercialization remains challenging.

Dyadic's entry into various funded research collaborations and strategic partnerships with major pharmaceutical companies and institutions such as the Israel Institute for Biological Research and the European Union’s Horizon Europe program highlights the growing industry interest in their microbial protein production platforms.

The company's efforts to diversify into non-pharmaceutical applications, including alternative proteins and non-animal dairy products, signify an astute business strategy aimed at reducing dependence on the pharmaceutical sector. The term sheet to develop recombinant serum albumin and the co-promotion agreement with Biftek Co. for cell culture growth media indicate potential new revenue streams in the rapidly growing alternative protein market.

However, it is essential to note that the commercialization of these non-pharmaceutical applications will require significant time and investment. The success of these ventures will depend on achieving target yield levels, securing commercialization agreements and navigating regulatory landscapes. Nevertheless, Dyadic's proactive approach in developing a robust and diversified pipeline positions them well for long-term growth, provided they can manage execution risks effectively.

DYAI-100 Phase 1 Clinical Trial

DYAI-100, a C1-SARS-CoV-2 recombinant protein RBD vaccine candidate, is the first C1-expressed protein tested in humans. The Phase 1 randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial was designed as a first-in-human trial to assess the clinical safety and antibody response of DYAI-100, produced using the C1 platform and administered as a booster vaccine at two single dose levels in healthy volunteers. Following regulatory clearance from the South African Health Products Regulatory Authority (SAHPRA), the trial was initiated in 1Q 2023, with the last patient visit occurring in 3Q 2023. On November 29, 2023, the Company announced the top-line safety results, indicating that the study has met its primary endpoint that both the low and high dose levels of the vaccine are safe and well tolerated among participants. Additionally, the vaccine has been shown to induce immune responses at both dose levels, suggesting its potential efficacy in generating protective immunity against the target virus. The study has been finalized, and the final Clinical Study Report has been issued, demonstrating that the DYAI-100 vaccine met its primary endpoint of safety and reactogenicity.

  • In April 2024, Dyadic and its development partner ViroVax reported pre-clinical animal testing on a ferritin nanoparticle H5N1 bird flu recombinant protein human vaccine candidate that demonstrated a strong immune response in rabbits. The potential vaccine combines Dyadic’s C1 single step ferritin nanoparticle H5N1 antigen production with a novel adjuvant from ViroVax. Additional animal studies are being carried out that preliminarily show that this H5N1 bird flu vaccine has the potential to be used in humans.
  • Successfully expressed H1N1 influenza antigen in the fully funded research collaboration with the Vaccine and Immunotherapy Center (“VIC”) at Massachusetts General Hospital to express vaccine antigens for influenza A and other infectious diseases, as part of a US $5.88 million award from the Department of Defense (“DoD”).
