Zynerba Pharmaceuticals Reports Second Quarter 2018 Financial Results and Operational Highlights

Zynerba to host conference call and webcast today at 8:30 am

Devon, PA, August 2, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Zynerba Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ:ZYNE), the leader in innovative pharmaceutically-produced transdermal cannabinoid therapies for rare and near-rare neuropsychiatric disorders, today reported financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2018 and provided an overview of recent operational highlights.

“Our strong clinical and corporate momentum continued over the past few months, including initiating CONNECT-FX, a pivotal study in Fragile X syndrome, and the BELIEVE 1 study in developmental and epileptic encephalopathies,” said Armando Anido, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Zynerba. “We presented exciting new data from the ongoing FAB-C study highlighting significant and sustained improvements in behavioral symptoms of FXS in children and adolescents treated with ZYN002 out to 38 weeks. Importantly, we closed a follow-on offering on July 24th, which added $30 million to our cash position. We believe this extends our cash runway into the first half of 2020, past the top-line results from the CONNECT-FX and BELIEVE-1 studies. Assuming positive results in CONNECT-FX and supportive regulatory interactions, we believe the additional capital will fund our NDA filing for ZYN002 for the treatment of behavioral symptoms of Fragile X.”

Second Quarter 2018 and Recent Highlights

ZYN002 in Fragile X Syndrome (FXS)

Initiated CONNECT-FX, a Pivotal Clinical Trial of ZYN002 in FXS; Enrollment is Ongoing with Topline Results Expected in the Second Half of 2019
The Company initiated and is currently enrolling patients in CONNECT-FX (Clinical study of Cannabidiol (CBD) in Children and Adolescents with Fragile X), a pivotal, multi-national, randomized, double blind, placebo controlled study evaluating the efficacy and safety of ZYN002 in three to 17-year old FXS patients with full mutation of the FMR1 gene. The study will enroll approximately 200 male and female patients from approximately 20 clinical sites in the U.S., Australia, and New Zealand. The primary endpoint is the change from baseline to the end of the treatment period in the Aberrant Behavior Checklist-Community FXS Specific (ABC-CFXS) Social Avoidance subscale.

Presented New Data at the 16th NFXF International Fragile X Conference from the Ongoing Open Label FAB-C Phase 2 Study of ZYN002 Describing Sustained Improvements in Behavioral Symptoms of FXS
Zynerba presented new data demonstrating that treatment with ZYN002 improved core behavioral symptoms of FXS with statistical significance versus baseline across multiple measures of efficacy at week 12, and these improvements were sustained through 38 weeks of treatment. For example, after 12 weeks of treatment with ZYN002, patients achieved a statistically significant mean improvement of 58% (n=12; p=0.0040) vs. baseline in the social avoidance subscale of the ABC-CFXS assessment. After 38 weeks of treatment with ZYN002, patients achieved a statistically significant mean improvement of 75% (n=9; p=0.0013) vs. baseline as measured by the same assessment. ZYN002 was well tolerated and no clinically meaningful negative trends in vital signs, ECG, or clinical safety laboratories, including liver function tests (LFTs), were observed.

ZYN002 in Developmental and Epileptic Encephalopathies (DEE)

Enrollment Ongoing in the Phase 2 BELIEVE 1 Clinical Trial in DEE; Topline Results Expected in 2019
Zynerba initiated BELIEVE 1 (Open Label Study to Assess the Safety and Efficacy of ZYN002 Administered as a Transdermal Gel to Children and Adolescents with Developmental and Epileptic Encephalopathy), a six-month multi-dose Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating the efficacy and safety of ZYN002 in approximately 50 children and adolescents with DEE. The primary efficacy assessment is change in seizure frequency. DEE is a group of epilepsy syndromes that involve significant developmental impairment or regression of developmental progress, and are highly resistant to treatment. The category includes a number of syndromes, including Doose, Dravet, Lennox-Gastaut, and West, among others.

ZYN002 in Focal Epilepsy

Presented Clinical Data from the STAR 2 Open Label Study of ZYN002 in Patients with Refractory Focal Seizures at the 2018 American Academy of Neurology (AAN) Meeting
Adult refractory focal seizure patients administering transdermal ZYN002 in STAR 1 and STAR 2 showed continued reductions in focal seizures compared to baseline through 12 months of treatment. ZYN002 was well tolerated. These data continue to suggest the potential for ZYN002 in the treatment of epilepsy, and provide insight into the design of the upcoming double blind, placebo controlled Phase 2b study, which the Company expects to initiate in the second half of 2018.

Corporate

Strengthened Balance Sheet with Successful Follow-On Offering Raising $30.0 Million in Net Proceeds; Expected to Extend Cash Runway into the First Half of 2020
The Company closed a follow-on offering on July 24, 2018, as expected, selling 4,062,500 shares of our common stock at an offering price of $8.00 per share, resulting in net proceeds of $30.0 million after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses. Zynerba has also granted the underwriters a 30-day option to purchase up to 609,375 additional shares of common stock at the public offering price, less underwriting discounts and commissions, which expires on August 19, 2018. Zynerba intends to use the net proceeds of the proposed offering to support the clinical development of ZYN002, for additional research and development, and for general corporate purposes.

Second Quarter 2018 Financial Results
As of June 30, 2018, cash and cash equivalents were $43.1 million, compared to $52.1 million as of March 31, 2018. Research and development expenses for the second quarter of 2018 were $8.5 million, including stock-based compensation of $0.8 million. General and administrative expenses for the second quarter of 2018 were $3.4 million, including stock-based compensation expense of $1.0 million. Net loss for the second quarter of 2018 was $12.0 million with basic and diluted net loss per share of $(0.89).

Financial Outlook
The Company’s cash and cash equivalent position as of June 30, 2018 was $43.1 million. The net proceeds of the follow-on offering that closed in July 2018 were $30.0 million. Management believes that the combined current cash and cash equivalents position, including the net proceeds of the follow-on offering, are sufficient to fund operations and capital requirements into the first half of 2020.
