15 May, 2026Executive summary

Four clinical programs are in development, with primary focus on tivoxavir marboxil (TXM) and ratutrelvir; oncology assets are being positioned for partnerships.
Secured up to $60M in private financing, with $10M upfront and milestone-based warrants, extending operational runway into Q1 2027.

Net loss for Q1 2026 was $7.1M, compared to net income of $21.5M in Q1 2025 (prior year included a $26.5M gain from warrant liability remeasurement).
R&D expenses rose 96% year-over-year to $4.9M, driven by virology program advancement and higher stock-based compensation.
G&A expenses decreased to $2.0M in Q1 2026 from $2.8M in Q1 2025, primarily due to lower professional and consulting fees.
Cash and cash equivalents at March 31, 2026, were $3.1M, with a working capital deficit of $7.9M.

Current cash, including April 2026 financing proceeds and warrants, is not sufficient to fund operations for 12 months; substantial doubt exists about ability to continue as a going concern.
Additional financing will be required to support ongoing trials and operations.
Plans to resolve FDA clinical hold on TXM and initiate global clinical studies by year-end 2026.
