14 Commentary on results

 

Incannex Healthcare Limited (“Incannex”) was incorporated in Australia in April 2001. Incannex listed its ordinary shares on the ASX under the symbol “IHL” in November 2016 and, in the form of American Depositary Shares under the symbol “IXHL” on Nasdaq in February 2022.

 

Incannex concluded FY2022 with a strong cash balance at 30 June 2022 of $37.5 million, versus $9.1 million at 30 June 2021. Our total assets were $37.9 million, compared to $9.3 million at 30 June 2021. During the year we deployed $5.4 million to move forward the company’s pipeline of clinical assets, representing over a third of our total expenditure for the year.

 

During the financial year, we have been conducting research and development for synthetic cannabinoid pharmaceutical products and psychedelic medicine therapies for treatment of a range of indications. To facilitate this goal, we completed shareholder loyalty option issue to raise A$23.6M for working capital and development activities associated with our aims.

 

Our mission is to create pharmaceutical drugs and therapies for patients that we believe have unmet, or under met, medical needs. We aim to be recognized as a leading specialty drug development company at the forefront of innovation, committed to restoring health and transforming the lives of patients through the development of novel pharmaceutical products and treatments.

 

We are developing targeted fixed-dose combinations containing cannabinoids and approved generic drugs, and psychedelic agents, applying proprietary insights to create long term value for our patients and shareholders. In particular, we are developing three unique pharmaceutical compositions to target five indications: obstructive sleep apnea (“OSA”), traumatic brain injury (“TBI”)/concussion, rheumatoid arthritis (“RA”), inflammatory bowel disease (“IBD”) and inflammatory lung conditions (“ARDS”, “COPD”, Asthma, Bronchitis). We are also developing a treatment for generalized anxiety disorder (“GAD”) utilizing psilocybin combined with innovative psychotherapy methods. Each indication represents a major global market that currently has either no, or limited, existing registered pharmacotherapy (drug) treatments available to the public.

Incannex Healthcare Limited

 

 

To protect our investment in each of these development programs we continue to implement strong patent filing strategies as we develop our drug candidates in conjunction with our medical and scientific advisory board. The novelty and inventiveness of our cannabinoid products and methods to treat the target indications has been confirmed in international search reports on our filed PCT applications.

 

We are pursuing registration and marketing approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) for each product and therapy under development. As each of our drug candidates target regulatory approval from FDA, safety and efficacy must be demonstrated using robust data from in-human clinical trials. Clinical development is an iterative process of clinical trials of increasing size, initially focusing on safety, with efficacy becoming an increasing goal as the program progresses. However, our strategy of combining cannabinoids with FDA approved generic drugs allows us to rely on historic or published data to address some of the key clinical development questions. This permits us to omit or combine clinical studies that would usually be required for approval and registration, potentially hastening our timeline to product commercialization. We aim to open investigational new drug (IND) applications for each of our development programs.

 

On 5 August 2022, the Company completed the acquisition on APIRx Pharmaceuticals. The acquisition was completed by an all-scrip transaction by issuing 218,169,497 IHL ordinary shares to the stakeholders of APIRx. APIRx has 22 clinical and pre-clinical research and development projects utilizing proprietary technology, underpinned by 19 granted and 23 pending patents. We believe that the acquisition will allow Incannex to benefit from the synergies that can be derived from the integration of APIRx’s assets, as well as offering us distinct development opportunities with significant economic potential.

2. Segment Information

 

Identification of reportable operating segments

 

AASB 8 (IFRS 8) Operating Segments requires operating segments to be identified on the basis of internal reports about components of the Group that are regularly reviewed by the Chief Executive Officer in order to allocate resources to the segment and to assess its performance.

 

The Group’s operating segments have been determined with reference to the monthly management accounts used by the Chief Executive Officer to make decisions regarding the Group’s operations and allocation of working capital. Due to the size and nature of the Group, the Board as a whole has been determined as the Chief Executive Officer.

 

Based on the quantitative thresholds included in AASB 8 (IFRS 8), for the fiscal year ended 30 June 2022, the Group was organised into three operating segments:

 

1.Research and develop the use of psychedelic medicine and therapies for the treatment of mental health disorders. This activity commenced during the year. During the current year the operations consisted entirely of research and development activities, including clinical trials.

 

2.Research and develop the use of medicinal cannabinoid products. During the year the Group continued to research and develop its products and the range of its products, including further clinical trials.

 

3.Corporate operations, consisting of management of the organisation, capital management and management of resources. Revenues consist of finance income and other income.

1.Reclassified and remeasured amounts due to restatement from error in prior year – see note 20 for explanation

 

The potential deferred tax benefit has not been recognised as an asset in the financial statements because recovery of the asset is not considered probable in the context of AASB 112 Income Taxes (IAS 12).

 

The benefit will only be realised if:

 

a)the Company derives future assessable income of a nature and of an amount sufficient to enable the benefit to be realised.

 

b)the Company complies with the conditions for deductibility imposed by the law; and

 

c)no changes in tax legislation adversely affect the Company in realising the benefit.

Expected credit losses

 

The Group applies the AASB 9 (IFRS 9) simplified model of recognising lifetime expected credit losses for all trade receivables as these items do not have a significant financing component. In measuring the expected credit losses, the trade receivables have been assessed on a collective basis as they possess shared credit risk characteristics. They have been grouped based on the days past due and also according to the geographical location of customers.

2During the year ended 30 June 2021, 40,000,000 options exercisable at $0.15, $0.20, and $.25 were issued to consultants for investor relation services. In addition, 30,164,690 options exercisable at $0.08 were issued as consideration for broker support of the exercise of the 262m listed IHLOB options series. During the year ended 30 June 2020, 33,000,000 options exercisable at $0.08 and expiring on 30 September 2021, were issued to brokers who supported the July 2019 capital raisings. These options have been valued using a Black-Scholes option model with inputs being grant date share price of $0.04 risk-free rate of 0.24% and volatility of 92%.

 

The equity based premium reserve is used to record the value of equity issued to raise capital, and for share-based payments.

12. Share based payments

 

From time to time, the Company may issue equity securities (i.e., shares, options or performance rights) to its employees, directors or advisors to more closely align rewards for performance with the achievement of the Company’s growth and strategic objectives. Where the recipient is a director of the Company, shareholder approval must be sought under the ASX Listing Rules prior to the issue of any equity securities to any director.

 

Fair value of shares issued

 

The fair value of shares issued to employees is determined using the closing price of shares on the grant date and expensed over the vesting period.

 

Options

 

The exercise price of options outstanding as of 30 June 2022 and 2021 ranged between $0.08 and $0.35.

 

As of 30 June 2022, there was $1,853,263 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested share options, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of approximately 1.39 years.

 

The fair values at grant date are independently determined using either a trinomial pricing or Black-Scholes option model that take into account any price to exercise, the term of the options or rights, the share price at grant date, the price volatility of the underlying share and the risk-free interest rate for the term of the options or rights. The expensed fair value in the tables below represents the proportion of the total fair value that has been allocated to the current period with the balance to be expensed in future periods.

The fair values at grant date are independently determined using either a trinomial pricing or Black-Scholes option model that take into account any price to exercise, the term of the options or rights, the share price at grant date, the price volatility of the underlying share and the risk-free interest rate for the term of the options or rights. Inputs into the trinomial and Black-Scholes option pricing models used to calculate fair value are classified as level three inputs under the fair value hierarchy of AASB 13 (IFRS 13).

 

The fair value of the equity-settled share options granted is estimated as at the grant date using a Black-Scholes option model taking into account the terms and conditions upon which the options were granted, as follows for the year ended 30 June 2022:

The expected volatility reflects the assumption that the historical volatility is indicative of future trends, which may also not necessarily be the actual outcome.

14. Financial Instruments

 

The Group’s principal financial instruments comprise cash and short-term deposits.

 

The main purpose of these financial instruments is to raise finance for the Group’s operations. The Group has various other financial liabilities such as trade payables, which arise directly from its operations. It is, and has been throughout the year under review, the Group’s policy that no trading in financial instruments shall be undertaken. The main risks arising from the Group’s financial instruments are cash flow interest rate risk, liquidity risk, and credit risk. The Board reviews and agrees policies for managing each of these risks and they are summarised below.

 

(a) Interest rate risk

 

The Group’s exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates relates primarily to the Group’s short-term deposits with a floating interest rate.

 

The Group’s exposure to interest rate on financial assets and financial liabilities is detailed in the sensitivity analysis section of this note.

 

(b) Sensitivity analysis

 

During 2022, if interest rates had been 50 basis points higher or lower than the prevailing rates realised, with all other variables held constant, there would have been an immaterial change in post-tax result for the year. The impact on equity would have been the same.

 

(c) Net fair values

 

The net fair value of cash and cash equivalents and non-interest bearing monetary financial assets and liabilities approximates their carrying value.

 

(d) Commodity price risk

 

The Group’s exposure to price risk is minimal.

 

(e) Credit risk

 

There are no significant concentrations of credit risk within the Group.

 

18

 

 

Incannex Healthcare Limited

 

 

14. Financial Instruments (cont.)

 

With respect to credit risk arising from the other financial assets of the Group, which comprise cash and cash equivalents, available-for-sale financial assets and certain derivative instruments, the Group’s exposure to credit risk arises from default of the counter party, with a maximum exposure equal to the carrying amount of these instruments.

 

Since the Group trades only with recognised third parties, there is no requirement for collateral.

 

(f) Liquidity risk

 

The Group’s objective is to maintain a balance between continuity of funding and flexibility through the use of share issues and convertible notes.

 

The Group’s contractual liabilities at 30 June 2022 were as follows:

 

Description  Less than 1 month   1 to 3 months   3 months to
1 year
   1 to 5 years   Total 
Consolidated  $   $   $   $   $

The Group’s contractual liabilities at 30 June 2021 were as follows:

   1 to 5 years   Total 
Consolidated  $   $   $   $   $

    614,834    -    -    -    614,834 

 

(g) Capital Management

 

The Group’s objectives when managing capital are to safeguard its ability to continue as a going concern, so that it may continue to provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders. Due to the nature of the Group’s past activities, being mineral exploration, it does not have ready access to credit facilities and therefore is not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements, with the primary source of Group funding being equity raisings and unsecured convertible notes. Accordingly, the objective of the Group’s capital risk management is to balance the current working capital position against the requirements to meet exploration programmes and corporate overheads. This is achieved by maintaining appropriate liquidity to meet anticipated operating requirements, with a view to initiating fund raisings as required.

 

15. Commitments and contingencies

 

Lease commitments

 

The Group holds three commercial leases for its office premises in Melbourne, Sydney and Perth, Australia. All of these leases had terms of 12 months from the commencement date of the lease.

 

Other commitments

 

The Group entered into an arrangement with Monash University (“Monash”) on 23 November 2020, whereby Monash will provide Research Trials in relation to Psi-GAD-1 over a 3-year period. The agreement sets out the scope of the Trials to be conducted, and the cost to the Group, of which 50% was paid on commencement of the agreement
