Insights

The Q3 results reveal a mixed financial picture for Sana Biotechnology. The company maintains a solid cash position of $199.0 million, providing runway into 2026, though operating cash burn guidance may exceed $200 million for 2024. Notable improvements include reduced R&D expenses, down $35.3 million year-over-year for the nine months and lower G&A costs.

The company's strategic repositioning towards immunologic diseases, particularly type 1 diabetes and B-cell mediated autoimmune diseases, could optimize resource allocation. However, the net loss of $217.7 million for the nine months, or $0.95 per share, indicates ongoing significant cash burn, typical for clinical-stage biotech companies.

Three active clinical programs across five indications provide multiple shots on goal, with data readouts expected in 2024/2025 that could serve as important catalysts.

The clinical pipeline shows promising advancement in high-value therapeutic areas. The HIP-modified islet cell therapy for type 1 diabetes represents a potentially transformative approach, targeting a significant unmet need without requiring immunosuppression. The B-cell directed therapies in both autoimmune diseases and oncology demonstrate platform versatility.

The appointment of Dr. Dhaval Patel as CSO brings valuable expertise, having contributed to 10 approved drugs. This strengthens the company's scientific leadership at a important time as clinical programs advance. Early clinical data suggesting immune evasion by HIP-modified cells is particularly encouraging, though comprehensive efficacy data is still pending from the ongoing trials.

Continue to advance hypoimmune technology in three trials across five indications in type 1 diabetes, B-cell mediated autoimmune diseases, and oncology

Enrolling patients in the investigator-sponsored trial with hypoimmune-modified primary islet cells, GLEAM trial for SC291 in B-cell mediated autoimmune diseases, and VIVID trial for SC262 in relapsed/refractory B-cell malignancies; expect data from these studies in 2024 and/or 2025

Announced increased focus on type 1 diabetes and B-cell mediated autoimmune diseases 

 Cash position of $199.0 million with expected cash runway into 2026

SEATTLE, Nov. 08, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Sana Biotechnology, Inc. (NASDAQ: SANA), a company focused on creating and delivering engineered cells as medicines, today reported financial results and business highlights for the third quarter 2024.

“Early clinical data with our hypoimmune technology suggest HIP-modified cells evade immune detection, and we look forward to sharing data in 2024 and 2025 across multiple clinical settings, including type 1 diabetes, B-cell mediated autoimmune diseases, and oncology,” said Steve Harr, Sana’s President and Chief Executive Officer. “This past quarter was an important one for the company, as we enhanced our leadership team with the addition of Dhaval Patel as our new Chief Scientific Officer, made progress with our clinical programs, and focused our pipeline. We are optimistic that our recent strategic repositioning to increase focus on immunologic diseases, particularly type 1 diabetes and B-cell mediated autoimmune diseases, will help accelerate development and prolong the capital runway for the company. We look forward to multiple clinical data readouts with our current balance sheet with our cash runway into 2026.”

Payments related to ongoing activities combined with the strategic repositioning may increase the 2024 operating cash burn above prior guidance of less than $200 million.

Recent Corporate Highlights

Advancing three clinical programs across five indications, including a gene-modified primary islet cell therapy in type 1 diabetes, an allogeneic CAR T program for B-cell mediated autoimmune diseases, and an allogeneic CAR T program for cancer patients that have failed a CD19-targeted therapy:

  • Type 1 Diabetes – UP421 is a primary human HIP-modified pancreatic islet cell therapy for patients with type 1 diabetes. The goal of this investigator-sponsored trial (IST) is to understand immune evasion, islet cell survival, and beta cell function, as measured by C-peptide production, of HIP-modified pancreatic islet cells in type 1 diabetics without any immunosuppression. Sana expects to share initial data in 2024 and/or 2025. Sana is also making progress with the pre-clinical development of SC451, a HIP-modified, stem cell-derived pancreatic islet cell program.
  • B-cell Mediated Autoimmune Diseases – The GLEAM trial evaluates SC291, a HIP-modified CD19-directed allogeneic CAR T therapy, in patients with B-cell mediated autoimmune diseases including lupus nephritis, extrarenal lupus, and antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-associated vasculitis. Sana is enrolling patients in this study and expects to share initial data in 2024 and/or 2025.
  • Oncology – The VIVID trial evaluates SC262, a HIP-modified CD22-directed allogeneic CAR T therapy, in patients with relapsed or refractory B-cell malignancies who have received prior CD19-directed CAR T therapy. Sana is enrolling patients and expects to share data in 2025.

Strengthened Research and Development leadership with the appointment of new Chief Scientific Officer

  • Appointed Dhaval Patel, M.D., Ph.D., as Executive Vice President and Chief Scientific Officer. Dr. Patel has decades of experience in research, drug discovery, drug development, and clinical care – including roles at UCB, Novartis, University of North Carolina, and the Duke University School of Medicine – and over the course of his career has participated in the development of 10 approved drugs in multiple indications.

Third Quarter 2024 Financial Results

GAAP Results

  • Cash Position: Cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities as of September 30, 2024 were $199.0 million compared to $205.2 million as of December 31, 2023. The decrease of $6.2 million was primarily driven by cash used in operations of $176.0 million and cash used for the purchase of property and equipment of $33.0 million, partially offset by net proceeds from equity financings of $181.0 million, proceeds from stock option exercises and the employee stock purchase plan of $10.3 million, and net proceeds of $7.8 million from a loan to fund tenant improvements for our manufacturing facility in Bothell, Washington during the nine months ended September 30, 2024. 
  • Research and Development Expenses: For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, research and development expenses, inclusive of non-cash expenses, were $53.2 million and $170.5 million, respectively, compared to $65.6 million and $205.8 million for the same periods in 2023. The decreases of $12.4 million and $35.3 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2023 were primarily due to lower personnel-related and laboratory costs due to a decrease in headcount and decreased research costs related to the strategic repositioning in the fourth quarter of 2023, lower costs for third-party manufacturing at contract development and manufacturing organizations, and a decline in facility and other allocated costs. These decreases were partially offset by increased clinical development costs. Research and development expenses include non-cash stock-based compensation of $6.5 million and $19.5 million, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and $5.7 million and $18.4 million, for the same periods in 2023.
  • Research and Development Related Success Payments and Contingent Consideration: For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, Sana recognized a non-cash gain of $5.5 million and a non-cash expense of $4.6 million, respectively, in connection with the change in the estimated fair value of the success payment liabilities and contingent consideration in aggregate, compared to non-cash gains of $82.6 million and $55.8 million for the same periods in 2023. The value of these potential liabilities fluctuate significantly with changes in Sana’s market capitalization and stock price.
  • General and Administrative Expenses: General and administrative expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, inclusive of non-cash expenses, were $14.1 million and $46.8 million, respectively, compared to $19.2 million and $52.5 million for the same periods in 2023. The decreases of $5.1 million and $5.8 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2023 were primarily due to a decrease in costs related to Sana’s previously planned manufacturing facility in Fremont, California, a decrease in legal and consulting fees, and lower personnel-related costs due to a decrease in headcount. These decreases were partially offset by an increase in non-cash stock-based compensation.
  • Net Loss: Net loss for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 was $59.9 million, or $0.25 per share, and $217.7 million, or $0.95 per share, respectively. Net income for the three months ended September 30, 2023 was $1.0 million, or $0.00 per share, and net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was $195.1 million, or $1.01 per share.

Non-GAAP Measures

  • Non-GAAP Operating Cash Burn: Non-GAAP operating cash burn for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 was $153.1 million compared to $187.2 million for the same period in 2023. Non-GAAP operating cash burn is the decrease in cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities, excluding cash inflows from financing activities, cash outflows from business development, non-recurring items, and the purchase of property and equipment.
  • Non-GAAP General and Administrative Expenses: Non-GAAP general and administrative expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 were $14.1 million and $46.8 million, respectively, compared to $16.5 million and $49.8 million for the same periods in 2023. Non-GAAP general and administrative expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 excludes the loss on termination of the Fremont lease.
  • Non-GAAP Net Loss: Non-GAAP net loss for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 was $64.7 million, or $0.27 per share, and $208.3 million, or $0.91 per share, respectively, compared to $79.0 million, or $0.41 per share, and $248.3 million, or $1.28 per share, for the same periods in 2023. Non-GAAP net loss excludes non-cash expenses and gains related to the change in the estimated fair value of contingent consideration and success payment liabilities, the impairment of other assets, and, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, the loss on termination of the Fremont lease.

A discussion of non-GAAP measures, including a reconciliation of GAAP and non-GAAP measures, is presented below under “Non-GAAP Financial Measures.”

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement the financial results presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP), Sana uses certain non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate its business. Sana’s management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures are helpful in understanding Sana’s financial performance and potential future results, as well as providing comparability to peer companies and period over period. In particular, Sana’s management utilizes non-GAAP operating cash burn, non-GAAP research and development expense and non-GAAP net loss and net loss per share. Sana believes the presentation of these non-GAAP measures provides management and investors greater visibility into the company’s actual ongoing costs to operate its business, including actual research and development costs unaffected by non-cash valuation changes and certain one-time expenses for acquiring technology, as well as facilitating a more meaningful comparison of period-to-period activity. Sana excludes these items because they are highly variable from period to period and, in respect of the non-cash expenses, provides investors with insight into the actual cash investment in the development of its therapeutic programs and platform technologies.

These are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for comparable GAAP measures and should be read in conjunction with Sana’s financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP measures differ from GAAP measures with the same captions, may be different from non-GAAP financial measures with the same or similar captions that are used by other companies, and do not reflect a comprehensive system of accounting. Sana’s management uses these supplemental non-GAAP financial measures internally to understand, manage, and evaluate Sana’s business and make operating decisions. In addition, Sana’s management believes that the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures is useful to investors because they enhance the ability of investors to compare Sana’s results from period to period and allows for greater transparency with respect to key financial metrics Sana uses in making operating decisions. The following are reconciliations of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures:
