Upcoming Milestones and Events Pivotal Study Planning. The Company is planning two pivotal, placebo-controlled clinical trials of TTP399 in subjects with T1D and has engaged with the FDA on the optimal clinical trial designs for these studies. The studies will recruit a total of approximately 1,000 patients and at least one of the studies will be one year of treatment. The FDA and the Company have agreed on the primary endpoint for the studies as the difference between placebo and TTP399-treated group in number of hypoglycemic events. These pivotal studies are expected to start in the first quarter of 2023. Third Quarter 2022 Financial Results Cash Position: The Company’s cash position as of September 30, 2022, was $15.3 million compared to $13.4 million as of December 31, 2021.Research & Development (R&D) Expenses: R&D expenses were $3.1 million and $2.4 million in each of the three months ended September 30, 2022, and 2021, respectively. The increase of $0.7 million is attributable to a decrease in clinical trial costs for azeliragon, which was mainly driven by discontinuance of its development as a potential treatment of Alzheimer’s disease in patients with type 2 diabetes and a decrease in spending related to a multiple ascending dose study for HPP737, due to its completion in 2021, offset by higher spending on TTP399 due to drug product related costs and trial preparation costs.General & Administrative (G&A) Expenses: G&A expenses were $2.6 million and $2.2 million for each of the three months ended September 30, 2022, and 2021, respectively. The increase was due to higher legal expense and higher other G&A costs offset by lower payroll costs.Other (Expense)/Income: Other expense for the three months ended September 30, 2022, was $0.1 million and was driven by an unrealized gain related to the investment in Reneo as well as the losses related to the change in the fair value of the outstanding warrants to purchase shares of our own stock issued to a related party (“Related Party Warrants”). Other income for the three months ended September 30, 2021, was $0.2 million and was related to the unrealized loss recognized related to the investment in Reneo as well as gains related to the change in the fair value of the outstanding warrants in our own stock held by a related party.Net Loss: Net loss attributable to vTv shareholders for the three months ended September 30, 2022, was $4.3 million or $0.05 per basic share. Net loss attributable to vTv shareholders for the comparable period a year ago was $1.1 million or $0.02 per basic share. vTv Therapeutics Inc.Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets(in thousands) September 30,2022 December 31,2021 (Unaudited) Assets Current assets: Cash and cash equivalents$15,339 $13,415 Accounts receivable 57 57 Promissory note receivable 12,091 — Prepaid expenses and other current assets 1,281 2,049 Current deposits 15 100 Total current assets 28,783 15,621 Property and equipment, net 230 278 Operating lease right-of-use assets 328 402 Long-term investments 6,175 9,173 Total assets$35,516 $25,474 Liabilities, Redeemable Noncontrolling Interest and Stockholders’ Deficit Current liabilities: Accounts payable and accrued expenses$6,676 $8,023 Current portion of operating lease liabilities 208 184 Current portion of contract liabilities 26 35 Current portion of notes payable 557 256 Total current liabilities 7,467 8,498 Contract liabilities, net of current portion 18,669 — Operating lease liabilities, net of current portion 333 492 Warrant liability, related party 1,409 1,262 Total liabilities 27,878 10,252 Commitments and contingencies Redeemable noncontrolling interest 24,207 24,962 Stockholders’ deficit: Class A Common Stock 815 669 Class B Common Stock 232 232 Promissory note receivable for common stock (4,000) — Additional paid-in capital 253,446 238,193 Accumulated deficit (267,062) (248,834)Total stockholders’ deficit attributable to vTv Therapeutics Inc.
