Rafael Holdings Reports Second Quarter Fiscal 2024 Financial Results

Company remains focused on generating shareholder value by advancing portfolio and identifying attractive opportunities for strategic investments

Increased ownership in Day Three Labs to a majority interest of 79%

NEWARK, N.J., March 13, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Rafael Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: RFL), today reported its financial results for the second quarter of fiscal 2024 – and the six months ended January 31, 2024.

“During fiscal 2024, we will continue to focus on advancing our existing portfolio and intend to leverage our strong balance sheet with selective strategic investments in companies with the potential to generate value for our stockholders. We are extremely pleased to welcome Dr. John Goldberg to the Rafael team as our Chief Medical Officer. John is a highly respected senior executive with nearly two decades of experience in drug development. John will be an integral member of our team, as we advance our existing assets and evaluate additional opportunities for investment,” said Bill Conkling, CEO of Rafael Holdings. Bill added, “We are encouraged by the positive developments for Cyclo Therapeutics’ (Nasdaq: CYTH) Phase 3 registrational clinical trial for patients with Niemann-Pick Disease Type C and in the increasing momentum behind Day Three Labs, which reimagines existing cannabis offerings with pharmaceutical-grade technology to bring to market better, cleaner, more precise and predictable products.”

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

As of January 31, 2024, we had cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities of $71.7 million.

For the three months ended January 31, 2024, we recorded net income from continuing operations of $5.9 million, or $0.25 per fully diluted share versus a net loss from continuing operations of $3.3 million, or $0.13 per share in the year ago period. The net income reported during the second quarter was driven by an unrealized gain of $9.7 million on our investments in Cyclo Therapeutics, offset by a loss of $1.6 million on our initial investment in Day Three Labs. During the second quarter of 2024, we increased our investment in Day Three Labs and now hold a majority interest in the company with 79% of the shares outstanding and began consolidating its financial results in the second quarter of 2024.

For the three months ended January 31, 2024, research and development expenses were $0.6 million compared to $2.2 million in the year ago period. The year over year reduction is due to the, previously disclosed, winding down of early-stage programs, including at Barer Institute.

For the three months ended January 31, 2024, general and administrative expenses from continuing operations were $2.6 million. For the same period in the prior year, general and administrative expenses were $2.1 million. The increase was primarily related to increases in non-cash stock-based compensation expenses and professional fees.

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

For the six months ended January 31, 2024, we recorded net income from continuing operations of $2.1 million, or $0.10 per fully diluted share versus a net loss from continuing operations of $8.5 million, or $0.36 per share in the year ago period. The net income recorded during the first half of fiscal 2024 was driven by an unrealized gain of $7.6 million on our investments in Cyclo Therapeutics, offset by a loss of $1.6 million on our initial investment in Day Three Labs. During the second quarter of 2024, we increased our investment in Day Three Labs and now hold a majority interest in the company with 79% of the shares outstanding and we began reporting consolidated its financial results in January 2024.

For the six months ended January 31, 2024, research and development expenses were $1.1 million compared to $4.3 million in the year ago period. The year over year reduction is due to the winding down of early-stage programs, including at Barer Institute.

For the six months ended January 31, 2024, general and administrative expenses from continuing operations were $4.6 million. For the same period in the prior year, general and administrative expenses were $5.2 million. The decrease was primarily related to a decrease in non-cash stock-based compensation and payroll expenses.
