Scinai Immunotherapeutics Reports Q1 Revenue Growth and Narrowing Losses

Scinai Immunotherapeutics (NASDAQ: SCNI) reported first quarter financial results showing promising signs of business development and financial discipline. The company generated $586,000 in revenue, a significant improvement from zero revenue in the same quarter last year, primarily driven by its contract development and manufacturing organization (CDMO) business segment.

The company's financial performance highlights strategic cost management efforts. Research and development expenses decreased from $1.6 million to $1.3 million, while marketing, general, and administrative costs remained consistent at $500,000. These reductions contributed to a narrowed net loss of $1.6 million, compared to $2.2 million in the first quarter of 2024.

Despite a reduction in cash and equivalents from $2 million to $1 million, Scinai continues to focus on two complementary business units. The first concentrates on developing inflammation and immunology biological therapeutic products using innovative nanosized VHH antibodies. The second unit operates as a boutique CDMO, providing comprehensive biological drug development services to early-stage biotech companies.

The revenue growth and cost management strategies suggest Scinai is working to establish a more sustainable business model. By leveraging its CDMO services and maintaining a focused approach to research and development, the company appears to be positioning itself for potential future financial stability and growth in the competitive biotechnology landscape.
