KalVista Pharmaceuticals Reports Second Fiscal Quarter Results and Provides Operational Update

 

–Continuing to build commercial infrastructure; on track for potential sebetralstat launch in Q2 2025–

 

–Multinational regulatory submissions for sebetralstat position Company to transform hereditary angioedema (HAE) treatment worldwide–

 

– Pro forma cash and cash equivalents of $292.2 million provide runway into second half 2027–

 

Cambridge, Mass., and Salisbury, England, December 5, 2024 – KalVista Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ: KALV), today released financial results for the second fiscal quarter ended October 31, 2024. The Company also provided an operational update, highlighted by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) acceptance of a New Drug Application (NDA) for sebetralstat, a novel, investigational treatment for hereditary angioedema (HAE).

 

“KalVista is successfully executing on the key milestones we announced at the beginning of our fiscal year as we move towards multiple potential commercial launches of sebetralstat in 2025,” said Ben Palleiko, Chief Executive Officer of KalVista. “With six marketing authorization applications filed to date and the first potential approval expected next June, we remain focused on achieving our goal of making sebetralstat available to people living with HAE globally. In support of that goal, during the quarter, we presented additional data from our clinical program at multiple conferences, demonstrating that patients used sebetralstat to treat attacks early and that early treatment with on-demand therapy resulted in meaningful clinical benefit. Finally, the additional capital we recently raised, including the non-dilutive synthetic royalty financing, will support our continued planning for the potential launch of sebetralstat in multiple markets.”

 

Second Fiscal Quarter and Recent Business Highlights:

Sebetralstat

 

In September 2024, KalVista announced that the FDA accepted its NDA for sebetralstat, a novel, investigational oral plasma kallikrein inhibitor that has the potential to be the first and only oral on-demand treatment for HAE attacks in people aged 12 years and older. The FDA has set a Prescription Drug User Fee Act (PDUFA) goal date of June 17, 2025.
Also in September, KalVista announced Marketing Authorization Application (MAA) submissions to regulatory authorities in the United Kingdom, Switzerland, Australia and Singapore via the Access Consortium framework, designed to maximize regulatory collaboration across countries and support a timely review process. This follows the August European Medicines Agency (EMA) validation of the MAA for sebetralstat.
KalVista presented new sebetralstat data at the 2024 American College of Allergy Asthma and Immunology. Presentations included Phase 3 trial data that showed early treatment is correlated with shorter attack duration, as well as a rigorous comparison of Phase 3 results for

Exhibit 99.1

oral sebetralstat and pivotal trial results of IV recombinant C1-inhibitor for on-demand treatment of HAE attacks that showed no differences in time to the beginning of symptom relief.
In addition, KalVista presented new data at the 2024 HAEi Global Angioedema Forum that highlighted the effectiveness of sebetralstat in reducing anxiety during HAE attacks and underscored the importance of having an oral, on-demand treatment option that could help people manage attacks earlier and more frequently. Patient perspectives shared at the forum also reinforced the high prevalence of anxiety associated with the use of injectable therapies, further supporting the call for more accessible oral alternatives.

Organizational

In November, KalVista raised a total of $160 million in aggregate gross proceeds through concurrent synthetic royalty financing and equity offerings. The synthetic royalty financing agreement with DRI Healthcare provides up to $179 million in non-dilutive funding, including $100 million upfront. In addition, the Company closed a public offering raising $55 million as well as $5 million in a private placement to DRI Healthcare.
The Company appointed Brian Piekos as Chief Financial Officer.

 

Second Fiscal Quarter Financial Results

The Company did not record any revenue for the three months ended October 31, 2024 or three months ended October 31, 2023.
Research and development expenses were $16.6 million for the three months ended October 31, 2024, compared to $19.1 million for the same period in the prior fiscal year. The decrease was primarily attributable to reduced preclinical activities and recognizing expense associated with sebetralstat pre-commercial awareness within General & Administrative.
General and administrative expenses were $29.2 million for the three months ended October 31, 2024, compared to $10.7 million for the same period in the prior fiscal year. The increase was primarily due to pre-commercial planning activities related to sebetralstat.
As of October 31, 2024, the Company had cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities of approximately $135.8 million ($292.2 million, on a pro forma basis, including the approximately $156.4 million net proceeds raised in November 2024 through the synthetic royalty financing and equity offerings). The Company anticipates that this pro forma balance provides sufficient runway into the second half of 2027.

About Sebetralstat

Discovered and developed entirely by KalVista, sebetralstat is a novel, investigational oral plasma kallikrein inhibitor for the treatment of hereditary angioedema (HAE). Our initial goal is to deliver sebetralstat as the first oral, on-demand treatment for HAE in people aged 12 years and older. In addition, we are studying the potential of sebetralstat for the on-demand treatment of HAE in children aged 2 to 11 years. We believe that, if approved, sebetralstat has the potential to become the foundational therapy for HAE disease management globally.
