Immunovant Reports Financial Results for the Quarter Ended September 30, 2021
Company Ended the Quarter With Cash of Approximately $559 Million


NEW YORK, November 5, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) – Immunovant, Inc. (Nasdaq: IMVT), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on enabling normal lives for people with autoimmune diseases, today reported financial results for its fiscal first quarter ended September 30, 2021. Immunovant ended the quarter with approximately $559 million in cash.
Financial Highlights for Fiscal Second Quarter Ended September 30, 2021:
R&D Expenses: Research and development expenses were $21.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021, compared to $12.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020. The year-over-year increase primarily reflected higher contract manufacturing costs and personnel-related expenses (including stock-based compensation), reflecting investment spending to support our strategic objectives as we prepare to re-initiate our clinical activities. These increases were partially offset by lower program-specific clinical trial activities due to the continued voluntary pause.
G&A Expenses:  General and administrative expenses were $16.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021, compared to $9.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020. The year-over-year increase was primarily due to financial advisory fees, legal and other professional costs and higher personnel-related expenses (including stock-based compensation).
Net Loss: Net loss was $37.7 million ($0.35 per common share) for the three months ended September 30, 2021, compared to $20.8 million ($0.25 per common share) for the three months ended September 30, 2020. Net loss for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 included $8.4 million and $3.4 million, respectively, related to non-cash stock-based compensation expense.
Common Stock: As of September 30, 2021, there were 114,998,871 shares of common stock issued and outstanding.



Financial Highlights for Fiscal Six Months Ended September 30, 2021:
R&D Expenses: Research and development expenses were $40.1 million for the six months ended September 30, 2021, compared to $28.9 million for the six months ended September 30, 2020. The year-over-year increase primarily reflected higher personnel-related expenses (including stock-based compensation), increases in clinical studies and clinical research and higher contract manufacturing costs, reflecting investment spending to support our strategic objectives as we prepare to re-initiate our clinical activities. These increases were partially offset by lower program-specific clinical trial activities due to the continued voluntary pause.
G&A Expenses:  General and administrative expenses were $27.5 million for the six months ended September 30, 2021, compared to $18.7 million for the six months ended September 30, 2020. The year-over-year increase was primarily due to financial advisory fees, legal and other professional costs and higher personnel-related expenses (including stock-based compensation).
Net Loss: Net loss was $68.2 million ($0.66 per common share) for the six months ended September 30, 2021, compared to $47.5 million ($0.61 per common share) for the six months ended September 30, 2020. Net loss for the six months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 included $12.2 million and $7.3 million, respectively, related to non-cash stock-based compensation expense.

All forward-looking statements are based on estimates and assumptions by Immunovant’s management that, although Immunovant believes to be reasonable, are inherently uncertain. All forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ materially from those that Immunovant expected. Such risks and uncertainties include, among others: initial results or other preliminary analyses or results of early clinical trials may not be predictive final trial results or of the results of later clinical trials; the timing and availability of data from clinical trials; the timing of discussions with regulatory agencies, as well as regulatory submissions and potential approvals; the continued development of Immunovant’s product candidate, including the timing of the commencement of additional clinical trials and resumption of current trials; Immunovant’s scientific approach, clinical trial design, indication selection and general development progress; future clinical trials may not confirm any safety, potency or other product characteristics described or assumed in this


press release; any product candidate that Immunovant develops may not progress through clinical development or receive required regulatory approvals within expected timelines or at all; Immunovant’s product candidate may not be beneficial to patients, or even if approved by regulatory authorities, successfully commercialized; the potential impact of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic on Immunovant’s clinical development plans and timelines; Immunovant’s business is heavily dependent on the successful development, regulatory approval and commercialization of its sole product candidate, batoclimab; Immunovant is at an early stage in development of batoclimab; and Immunovant will require additional capital to fund its operations and advance batoclimab through clinical development.
