Rafael Holdings Reports First Quarter Fiscal 2024 Financial Results

NEWARK, N.J., Dec. 14, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Rafael Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: RFL) today reported its financial results for the first quarter of fiscal 2024 - the three months ended October 31, 2023.

“During fiscal 2024, we will continue to focus on advancing our existing portfolio and identifying strategic investments in companies which have the potential to generate value for our stockholders. We believe our strong balance sheet affords us the opportunity to potentially capitalize on attractive investments,” said Bill Conkling, CEO of Rafael Holdings. “In the first quarter of fiscal 2024, we continued to invest in Cyclo Therapeutics (Nasdaq: CYTH) in support of its Phase 3 registrational clinical trial for patients with Niemann-Pick Disease Type C and in Day Three Laboratories, a company which reimagines existing cannabis offerings with pharmaceutical-grade technology and innovation.”

Rafael Holdings, Inc. First Quarter Fiscal Year 2024 Financial Results

As of October 31, 2023, we had cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities of $72.1 million.

For the three months ended October 31, 2023, we incurred a net loss from continuing operations of $3.8 million, or $0.15 per share, down from a net loss from continuing operations of $5.2 million, or $0.22 per share a year ago.

For the three months ended October 31, 2023, research and development expenses were $0.5 million compared to $2.1 million in the year ago period. The year over year reduction in spending is due to the winding down of early-stage programs, including at Barer Institute.

For the three months ended October 31, 2023, general and administrative expenses were $2.0 million. For the same period in the prior year, general and administrative expenses were $3.1 million. The decrease was primarily related to a decrease in non-cash stock-based compensation and payroll expenses.
