(Nasdaq:CVAC) (\"CureVac\"), a global biopharmaceutical company developing a new class of transformative medicines based on messenger ribonucleic acid (\"mRNA\"), today announced financial results for the third quarter and first nine months of 2024 and provided a business update.\nCommenting on the quarter Dr. Alexander Zehnder, Chief Executive Officer of CureVac said:\n\"The third quarter was truly transformative for CureVac. By restructuring our collaboration with GSK, we have embarked on a new chapter of growth and innovation, unveiling new programs that leverage our advanced mRNA technology to tackle critical health challenges. The strategic decisions we've made, combined with encouraging initial clinical results, have laid a solid foundation for our future success. We are now strategically aligned, more operationally efficient, and financially empowered to create shareholder value by advancing our portfolio of novel mRNA-based medicines.\"\nSelected Business Updates\nStrategic Redesign\nCureVac made meaningful progress in restructuring its operations during the third quarter by implementing significant cost-cutting measures. These include the previously announced 30% workforce reduction, which is on track to be completed by the end of 2024. The goal of the restructuring is to reorganize the company for flexibility in executing immediate priorities while maintaining a strong innovation focus and ensuring long-term value creation. Right-sizing CureVac for future growth allows for continued focused development of a prioritized portfolio, including high-value mRNA projects in oncology, infectious diseases and other areas.\n\"With funding secured into 2028, and our operational expenses increasingly streamlined by our ongoing redesign, we are in a strong position to expand our R&D efforts across several promising areas,\"said Dr. Zehnder . \"We will be launching new development programs in the coming quarters and will continue to execute our business and pipeline strategy well into the future.\"\nStrengthening the Leadership Team\nAs of November 11, 2024, CureVac welcomed a new Chief Financial Officer, Axel Sven Malkomes. Mr. Malkomes brings over three decades of senior corporate and investment banking experience within the biotech and pharmaceutical industries. Most recently, he served as CFO at Cardior Pharmaceuticals, a private clinical-stage company developing non-coding RNA-based therapeutics for heart disease. During his tenure, he played a crucial role in strategically and financially preparing the company for capital markets, co-leading financing rounds, and supporting potential M&A and partnering transactions, culminating in the successful acquisition of Cardior by Novo Nordisk in 2024.\nBefore Cardior, Mr. Malkomes was CFO and Chief Business Officer at Medigene AG, a publicly listed cell therapy company. His extensive experience also includes senior healthcare investment banking roles at Barclays and Société Générale, as well as co-heading European healthcare investments at 3i Group plc, a UK-listed private equity firm with over $20 billion in assets under management. Earlier in his career, he held senior leadership positions at Merck KGaA.\nOncology\nExpanding oncology development pipeline\nCureVac sees significant opportunities to apply precision immunotherapy using mRNA vaccines in large patient populations. The company aims to create earlier treatment options for multiple solid tumor types and is strengthening its clinical development pipeline following two complementary approaches: off-the-shelf cancer vaccines targeting tumor antigens shared across different patient populations and/or tumor types and fully personalized cancer vaccines based on a patient's individual tumor genomic profile.\nCureVac is extending its off-the-shelf cancer vaccine pipeline and has selected an additional clinical candidate for a shared-antigen cancer vaccine targeting squamous non-small cell lung cancer (sqNSCLC). Investigational New Drug (IND) and Clinical Trial Application (CTA) submissions are being prepared for filing in the first half of 2025. Additional discovery work aims to deliver further off-the-shelf cancer vaccines and selection of a second clinical candidate is anticipated in 2026.\nIn parallel, the program for fully personalized cancer vaccines is progressing and on track with the planned start of a Phase 1 study expected in the second half of 2026.\nClinical off-the-shelf program in glioblastoma\nCureVac presented the first clinical data from the Phase 1 study of CVGBM, its off-the-shelf mRNA cancer vaccine candidate, in patients with resected glioblastoma in September 2024 at the European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO) Congress and in November at the Society for Immunotherapy of Cancer (SITC) and the Society for Neuro-Oncology (SNO) Congresses. Preliminary immunogenicity results in this highly aggressive and challenging cancer indication demonstrate the potential of CureVac's proprietary second-generation mRNA backbone to enhance the immune system's capacity for a coordinated defense against the disease.\n\"As our lead oncology program, CVGBM has demonstrated encouraging initial clinical results in patients with resected glioblastoma,\" said Dr. Myriam Mendila, Chief Scientific Officer of CureVac. \"Data presented recently at the ESMO, SITC and SNO congresses showed that 77% of evaluable patients exhibited sustained immune response induction over a 99-day monitoring period. Importantly, we believe these data are very promising because the response was led by de novo T-cell generation, which likely plays a crucial role in the success of a cancer vaccine.\"\nIn the fully enrolled dose-escalation Part A, CVGBM monotherapy induced cancer antigen-specific T-cell responses in 77% of 13 evaluable patients. Notably, 84% of these immune responses were generated de novo , inducing T-cell activity in patients without prior immunity to the encoded antigens. Among responding patients, 69% showed CD8 + responses, 31% had CD4 + responses, and 23% had both. 67% of responding patients showed immune responses against multiple antigens. At the recommended 100 µg dose for the expansion part of the study, responses were sustainable over a 99-day monitoring period. Induction of cellular responses was accompanied by systemic cytokine and chemokine activation, indicating innate immune response activation.\nThe treatment was well tolerated, with no dose-limiting toxicities up to the highest dose of 100 µg. 91% of treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) were mild to moderate systemic reactions characteristic of mRNA-based therapeutics, resolving within 1-2 days post-injection. Seven patients reported nine severe TRAEs, including four serious adverse events; no grade 4 or 5 adverse events occurred.\nThe dose-expansion Part B of the study is ongoing at the recommended 100 µg dose. Initial data and a decision on advancing the program to Phase 2 are expected in the second half of 2025.\nMore information can be found at clinicaltrials.gov (NCT05938387).\nProphylactic Vaccines\nInitiation of Urinary Tract Infections Program\nCureVac has initiated a new program to address urinary tract infections (UTIs), which are among the most common bacterial infections. UTIs are most commonly caused by uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) bacteria, which can enter the urinary tract, invade and colonize bladder and kidney tissues. These infections can lead to complications such as kidney damage and urosepsis. UTIs lead to approximately 8-10 million doctor office visits and 1-3 million emergency department visits per year in the U.S. alone.\n\"Urinary tract infections are extremely common, affecting millions of people each year-often repeatedly-and are increasingly prone to antibiotic resistance,\" said Dr. Mendila. \"Our encouraging preclinical data show that our investigational vaccine candidates targeting uropathogenic Escherichia coli elicit strong antibody titers and robust T-cell responses, comparing very favorably to recombinant protein-based vaccines. Based on these promising results, we believe there is a significant commercial opportunity for an mRNA solution that offers meaningful benefits to individuals suffering from these infections.\"\nmRNA technology is ideally suited for developing prophylactic vaccines against bacterial targets like UPEC due to its ability to target specific disease antigens and flexibly combine multiple antigens.\nCureVac has conducted preclinical studies with several UPEC vaccine candidates and selected a lead candidate for further preclinical testing. The promising data, which compares favorably to recombinant protein-based vaccines, is being presented at the 12th International mRNA Health Conference in Boston from November 11-14, 2024.\nThe studies assessed two mRNA vaccine candidates encoding FimH, an antigen facilitating UPEC adhesion to bladder epithelial cells, in mouse and rat models. Both candidates induced high levels of binding antibodies in serum and urine, correlating with high serum functional antibodies, and showed strong induction of antigen-specific CD8 + and CD4 + T-cells. Additionally, both vaccine candidates demonstrated superior immunogenicity compared to protein-based comparator vaccines.\nBased on these encouraging preclinical results, CureVac expects to select a clinical candidate in the first half of 2025. An IND application filing is planned in the second half of 2025, aiming to initiate a Phase 1 study in the first half of 2026.\nSeasonal Influenza Phase 2 Data - Program Licensed to GSK\nIn September 2024, GSK announced positive Phase 2 headline data from its seasonal influenza mRNA vaccine program based on CureVac's second-generation mRNA backbone. According to GSK, the data demonstrated positive immune responses against both influenza A strains as well as historically challenging influenza B strains compared to the current standard of care.\n\"For many years, developing vaccines that elicit strong immune responses against influenza B strains has been a significant challenge,\"said Dr. Mendila . \"The recent data from our GSK-licensed seasonal influenza mRNA vaccine program are remarkable because they show we are overcoming one of the greatest hurdles in bringing this type of vaccine to market. This is a significant milestone in seasonal flu vaccine development.\"\nThe interim data met all predefined success criteria in the tested age groups of older and younger adults and suggested an acceptable safety and reactogenicity profile. GSK confirmed that the program is progressing to Phase 3 in 2025, which will be associated with a significant milestone payment for CureVac.\nMore information can be found at clinicaltrials.gov (NCT06431607).\nAs previously announced in July 2024, CureVac and GSK restructured their collaboration into a new licensing agreement. Under the new agreement, GSK has assumed full control of the development, manufacturing and global commercialization of mRNA vaccine candidates against influenza and COVID-19, including combinations. All vaccine candidates currently in clinical development are based on CureVac's proprietary second-generation mRNA backbone.\nFinancial Updatefor the Third Quarter and First Nine Months of 2024\nCommenting on the financial results, Axel Sven Malkomes, CureVac's new Chief Financial Officer, said:\n\"Joining CureVac at this pivotal time is incredibly exciting. Our strengthened cash position, supported by our strategic redesign-including a significant reduction in headcount-provides a solid foundation to execute our strategic objectives. By extending our cash runway into 2028, we can allocate more resources toward our promising R&D pipeline in oncology and infectious diseases. I am committed to ensuring that we maintain financial discipline as we drive forward our mission to develop transformative mRNA medicines and create long-term value for our shareholders.\"\nCash Position\nCash and cash equivalents amounted to €550.9 million at the end of September 2024, increasing from €402.5 million at the end of 2023. The company received the €400 million upfront payment from the new GSK licensing agreement in August 2024. In the first nine months of 2024, cash used in operations was mainly allocated to payments related to the termination of raw material commitments for the first-generation COVID-19 vaccine, CVnCoV, amounting to a total of €52 million and the payment of contract manufacturing organization (CMO)-related arbitration awards. All CMO-related arbitrations are closed, with the last payment made in the third quarter of 2024. Looking forward, there will be no further payments related to CVnCoV.\nThe remaining cash spend was mainly related to ongoing R&D activities. The company reaffirms its expected cash runway into 2028.\nRevenues\nRevenues amounted to €493.9 million and €520.7 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively, representing an increase of €477.4 million and €489.5 million, or 2,897% and 1,569%, from €16.5 million and €31.2 million for the same periods in 2023.\nThe increase year-on-year was primarily driven by the new license agreement with GSK, which was closed in July 2024. CureVac received a non-refundable upfront payment of €400 million. Under the new license agreement, CureVac has no obligation to perform R&D work in connection with the newly granted licenses and GSK is provided with the right to use CureVac's intellectual property. As such, the upfront payment was fully recognized in the third quarter of 2024 as revenue.\nUnder previous GSK agreements, upfront and milestone payments were related to R&D activities performed by CureVac over a period of time. Accordingly, related payments were recognized as contract liabilities and recognized as revenue on a pro rata basis over the period R&D activities were performed.\nCureVac and GSK agreed in the new license agreement that all unfulfilled performance obligations from prior collaborations relating to R&D services had expired. As a result, the remaining €80.4 million of contract liabilities for prior collaborations were recognized as non-cash revenue in the third quarter of 2024.\n€480.4 million of the revenue recognized in the third quarter of 2024 must therefore be seen as a positive one-time event that will not be repeated in the future.\nAdditionally, in the third quarter of 2024, CureVac reached a development milestone of €10.0 million under the previous GSK collaboration for the Phase 2 transition of the pre-pandemic avian influenza (H5N1) program, which is also fully recognized as revenue in the third quarter of 2024.\nThe remaining revenues relate to work on the GSK and CRISPR collaborations.\nOperating Result\nOperating profit amounted to €368.4 million and €221.4 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively, representing an increase of €422.4 million and €407.6 million from an operating loss of €54.0 million and €186.2 million for the same periods in 2023.\nThe operating result was affected by several key drivers partially related to the new strategy and the closing of the first-generation vaccine effort in COVID-19:\n\nCost of sales increased year-on-year mainly due to higher arbitration costs for CMO activities related to the first-generation COVID-19 vaccine as well as due to higher personnel expenses related to the restructuring of the organization.\nResearch and development expenses increased primarily with increased activity in oncology R&D projects. Additionally, the first nine months of 2024 were impacted by increased expenses related to the litigation to enforce intellectual property rights.\nGeneral and administrative expenses decreased compared to the prior year period mainly driven by lower personnel expenses.\nOther income increased year-on-year due to the sale of raw materials to GSK.\nOther operating expenses increased year-on-year due to a partial impairment of CureVac's production facility.While the production facility was initially planned and set up for commercial (large scale) production, CureVac no longer has large scale production obligations in addition to the strategic re-focus on technology innovation, research and development. Most parts of the production process can be scaled down to provide products for clinical production. Parts of the production process that cannot be scaled down were partially impaired in an amount of €36.6 million.\n\nFinancial Result (Finance Income and Expenses)\nNet financial result for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, amounted to €2.2 million and €8.0 million, or a decrease of €3.1 million and €4.7 million, from €5.3 million and €12.7 million, respectively, for the same periods in 2023. This decrease was mainly driven by lower interest income on cash investments.\nPre-Tax Results\nPre-tax profit was €370.6 million and €229.4 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to a pre-tax loss of €48.7 million and €173.5 million in the same periods of 2023.\nConference call and webcast details\nCureVac will host a conference call and webcast today at 3 p.m. CET / 9 a.m. EST.Dial-in numbers to participate in the conference call:\nU.S. Toll-Free: +1-877-407-0989International: +1-201-389-0921Germany: 0800-182-0040 (landline access) / 0800-184-4713 (cell phone access)\nThe live webcast link can be accessed via the newsroom section of the CureVac website at https://www.curevac.com/en/newsroom/events/\nCorresponding presentation slides will be posted shortly before the start of the webcast.A replay will be made available at this website after the event.\nAbout CureVac\nCureVac (Nasdaq: CVAC) is a pioneering multinational biotech company founded in 2000 to advance the field of messenger RNA (mRNA) technology for application in human medicine.
