Organovo Provides Update on Cash and Nasdaq Continued Listing Requirements
SAN DIEGO, April 02, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Organovo Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: ONVO) ('Organovo' or the 'Company'), a clinical stage biotechnology company focused on developing novel treatment approaches in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), today reported preliminary unaudited cash for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2025, and net cash utilization results for the fiscal fourth quarter of 2025. The Company expects to release full fiscal second-quarter financial results the week of June 9-13, 2025. The Company also gave guidance that, as its common stock has been trading above the $1.00 minimum bid price required, it expects to meet the requirements for continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market should the closing price of its common stock remain at similar levels. Cash The Company's preliminary cash and cash equivalents balance was approximately $11.3 million as of the end of the fiscal year on March 31, 2025. Organovo's preliminary net cash utilization during the fourth quarter from January 1, 2025 to March 31, 2025 was approximately $2.0 - $2.2 million. The preliminary financial information presented in this press release is based on Organovo's current expectations and may be adjusted as a result of, among other things, the completion of customary annual audit procedures. Nasdaq Compliance Update The Company further clarified it expects to meet all requirements for continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market. The Company's common stock has closed above the $1.00 minimum bid price requirement since March 21, 2025 and believes it has met the minimum stockholder equity requirements of continued listing, pending Nasdaq confirmation. Nasdaq requires a minimum of 10 consecutive trading days where the stock closes at a minimum bid price of $1.00, and the Company has closed above $1.00 since March 21, 2025. Potential Receipt of Future Milestone Payments Although the Company does not control the clinical development of products for which it may receive milestone payments, it currently reasonably expects to receive a $5M milestone payment within the next 12 months associated with the anticipated start of a Phase 2 clinical trial for the FXR agonist that it recently sold. In connection with the sale of the FXR agonist, the Company may receive future milestones of up to an aggregate of $50M, which is inclusive of the $5M milestone payment that would be received upon the commencement of a Phase 2 clinical trial.
