Financial Report Analysis
Numinus is looking strong. The company has proven willing and able to pivot and follow through to increase revenue and decrease its cash burn.
At the release of the company’s Q3 results, CEO Payton Nyvquest explained a spike in cash burn as the result of the company’s layoffs to trim expenses and extend the cash runway. He assured investors that spending would be down in the following quarter and that promise was fulfilled.
Operating expenditures were down $ 1.3 million in Q4, compared to Q3. And, “the Company continued its cost containment initiative to refocus operations on revenue producing activities and extend its cash runway.”
Numinus is a psychedelic company operating in a still very limited psychedelic landscape. Ketamine clinics are a tough business to generate profit with. However, Numinus has done a good job identifying which opportunities are worth continuing efforts in, and which are not— pivoting its focus and resources to increase revenue and decrease cash burn.
Even more impressive than Numinus’s efforts to increase revenue and extend its cash runway is its ability to strategically position itself for the future while doing so. This year, the company announced a partnership with MAPS that grants Numinus permission to use its protocol to offer MDMA-assisted therapy experiential opportunities. Meaning that Numinus is uniquely positioned to capitalize on the upcoming FDA approval of MDMA-assisted therapy— something that dozens of companies desire.
