Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - May 6, 2026) - InMed Pharmaceuticals Inc. (NASDAQ: INM) ("InMed" or the "Company"), a pharmaceutical company focused on developing a pipeline of proprietary small molecule drug candidates for diseases with high unmet medical needs, today reports financial results for the third quarter of the fiscal year 2026 which ended March 31, 2026.
The Company's full financial statements and related MD&A for the third quarter ended March 31, 2026, are available at www.inmedpharma.com, www.sedarplus.com and at www.sec.gov.
"During the quarter, InMed reported additional preclinical data that further support the development of INM-901 for Alzheimer's disease through its targeting of neuroinflammation. Data from advanced human brain organoid systems demonstrated anti-neuroinflammatory effects consistent with findings observed across multiple in vivo and ex vivo studies," commented Eric A. Adams, InMed President and CEO.
Business Update
INM-901: Targeting the Modulation of Neuroinflammation in Alzheimer's disease
InMed's proprietary, disease-modifying, small molecule drug candidate INM-901 is a preferential signaling agonist of the CB1/CB2 receptors and continues to advance as a potential treatment for Alzheimer's disease with a primary focus on modulating neuroinflammation. During the quarter, InMed announced preclinical data demonstrating the effects of INM-901 in reducing neuroinflammation in 3D human brain organoid models of Alzheimer's disease.
The in vitro human organoid models represent some of the closest approximations to human brain tissue currently available, incorporating a complex cellular environment relevant to neurodegenerative disease. The organoids are composed of neurons, astrocytes, vascular cells and feature microglia, the brain's resident immune cells, and can be used to bridge the gap between traditional animal models and human clinical trials.
INM-901 was evaluated in two distinct human 3D organoid models: a general model of neuroinflammation induced with lipopolysaccharide ("LPS") and interferon-gamma ("IFN-γ"); and, Stem Pharm's proprietary neuroinflammation Alzheimer's disease model with specific features observed in Alzheimer's disease patients.
Key Observations included:
INM-901 demonstrated significant reduction in neuroinflammation in Stem Pharm's LPS-induced model and in their Alzheimer's disease model. A dose-dependent reduction of key pro-inflammatory markers such as IL-6 and IL-8 was seen in both neuroinflammation models.
Effects align with prior findings from an in vivo Alzheimer's model and an ex vivo LPS-induced neuroinflammation model.
Provides supportive evidence of mechanistic translation from animal models to human tissue systems.
The consistency of INM-901's anti-inflammatory effects across in vivo animal models, ex vivo systems and now human 3D brain organoids provide increasing confidence in the compound's potential to translate into clinical benefit in humans with neuroinflammatory conditions.
Discontinued Operations
On March 4, 2026, the Company's board of directors ratified, confirmed and approved the decision of the board members of BayMedica to wind down and exit BayMedica's commercial operations business segment ("Commercial Operations"), which is the only revenue-generating commercial operations of the Company. BayMedica intends to substantially complete the wind down and exit prior to the end of its fiscal year ending June 30, 2026. During the interim period leading to the completion of operational wind down, BayMedica will continue its commercial operations including sales, marketing, limited manufacturing, and logistics.
Financial Commentary
Following the classification of the Commercial segment as discontinued operations, the Company has one reportable segment that constitutes consolidated results consisting of its operations. Unless otherwise noted, all activities and amounts reported in the following notes relate to the continuing operations of the Company and exclude activities and amounts related to discontinued operations.
For the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company reported a net loss of $3.0 million, compared to a net loss of $2.1 million in the same period the previous year. The increase was largely driven by higher expenses related to pharmaceutical research and development activities, as well as financing costs.
Pharmaceutical research and development for continuing operations were $1.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared with $0.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The increase was primarily due to an increase in external contractors relating to our INM-901 program
General and administrative expenses for continuing operations were $1.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $1.6 million the same period the previous year. The increase resulted primarily from a combination of changes including lower accounting fees, share-based payments fees, and shareholder communication fees.
As of March 31, 2026, the Company's cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments were $5.2 million, which compares to $10.8 million on June 30, 2025.
The Company reported no revenue from continuing operations for the period. The discontinued commercial operations generated revenue of $0.7 million during the period; however, its results are classified as discontinued operations and are presented separately from continuing operations.
