Reneo Pharmaceuticals Reports First Quarter 2024 Financial Results

IRVINE, Calif., May 07, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Reneo Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Nasdaq: RPHM), a pharmaceutical company historically focused on the development and commercialization of therapies for patients with rare genetic mitochondrial diseases, today reported financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2024.

First Quarter and Recent Highlights

  • In December 2023, the pivotal STRIDE study of mavodelpar in adult patients with primary mitochondrial myopathies did not meet its primary efficacy or secondary efficacy endpoints
  • The Company implemented cost savings initiatives, including suspension of all mavodelpar development activities and a total workforce reduction of approximately 90%
  • The Company retained an independent financial advisor to initiate a formal process to evaluate potential strategic alternatives

Financial Results for Three Months Ended March 31, 2024

We reported a net loss of $8.4 million, or $0.25 per share, during the first quarter of 2024, compared to a net loss of $15.1 million, or $0.60 per share, for the same period in 2023. We had $82.8 million in cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments as of March 31, 2024.

Research and development expenses were $4.9 million during the first quarter of 2024, compared to $11.0 million for the same period in 2023. This decrease was primarily due to the suspension of development activities for mavodelpar and cash preservation activities, including workforce reductions in December 2023 and February 2024.

General and administrative expenses were $4.6 million during the first quarter of 2024, compared to $5.1 million for the same period in 2023. This decrease was primarily due to the workforce reductions in December 2023 and February 2024.
