Rafael Holdings Reports Third Quarter Fiscal
2026 Financial Results
NEWARK,
NJ – June 11, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) - Rafael Holdings,
Inc. (NYSE: RFL) today reported its financial results for the third quarter fiscal year 2026 ended April 30, 2026.
“Yesterday,
we were pleased to announce that we reached the completion of the last patient last visit of our pivotal Phase 3 TransportNPC™ trial,
and we are grateful for the patients and families, advocacy organizations, and physicians who stood at the heart of this global effort.
Together, we have advanced the clinical understanding of NPC, as well as the lived experience of this devastating disease, as we work
to deliver a potentially life changing treatment option for a community with significant unmet need,” said Joshua Fine, Chief Operating
Officer of Rafael Holdings. “We would also like to recognize the FDA for their long-term continued collaboration, and guidance in
advancing this program.”
“Following
our pre-NDA meeting with the FDA, we believe we have a clear and expedited path forward reflective of the urgency and unmet need in NPC
and expect to submit our NDA in the second half of calendar 2026. NPC represents a high-unmet-need market, positioning Rafael Holdings
to potentially unlock substantial, long-term value for our shareholders as we work toward transitioning Rafael Holdings into a commercial-stage
biotechnology company,” said Howard Jonas, Chief Executive Officer, Executive Chairman and Chairman of the Board of Rafael
Holdings.
Rafael Holdings, Inc. Third Quarter Fiscal Year 2026 Financial Results
As of April 30, 2026, we had cash and cash equivalents of $30.5 million.
For the three months ended April 30, 2026, we recorded a net loss attributable
to Rafael Holdings of $4.2 million, or $0.08 per share, versus a net loss of $4.8 million, or $0.19 per share in the year ago period.
The year over year increase in net loss is largely attributable to the consolidation of Cyclo Therapeutic’s expenses following the
acquisition of Cyclo in March 2025.
Research and development expenses were $4.9 million for the three months
ended April 30, 2026, compared to $3.0 million in the year ago period. The year over year increase relates to the inclusion in the current
year period of research and development spending at Cyclo following the March 2025 acquisition.
General and administrative expenses were $2.1 million for the three
months ended April 30, 2026, compared to $3.2 million in the year ago period. The year over year decrease relates to a decrease in payroll,
stock-based compensation expense and professional fees during the quarter ended April 30, 2026, offset by the inclusion of expenses at
Cyclo following the March 2025 acquisition.
Rafael Holdings, Inc. First Nine Months Fiscal Year 2026 Financial
Results
For the nine months ended April 30, 2026, we recorded a net loss attributable
to Rafael Holdings of $20.5 million, or $0.40 per share, versus a net loss of $18.4 million, or $0.73 per share in the year ago period.
The year over year increase in net loss is attributable to the consolidation of Cyclo Therapeutic’s expenses following the acquisition
of Cyclo in March 2025.
Research and development expenses were $16.9 million for the nine months
ended April 30, 2026, compared to $5.3 million in the year ago period. The year over year increase relates to the inclusion in the current
year period of spending at Cyclo following the March 2025 acquisition.
General and administrative expenses were $7.3 million for the nine
months ended April 30, 2026, compared to $8.3 million in the year ago period. The decrease related to the inclusion of expenses at Cyclo
following the March 2025 acquisition which was more than offset by reductions in payroll due to terminations and reduced stock-based compensation
expense and professional fees.
