MindWalk Reports Record Growth and Announces Strategic Progress on Its AI Asset Pipeline

businesswire.com

VICTORIA, British Columbia--( BUSINESS WIRE)--MindWalk (NASDAQ: HYFT), a BioNative AI biotherapeutic research and technology company combining in silico and wet lab operations for biologics discovery and development, today announced financial results for the second quarter of fiscal 2026 and provided updates on its AI driven asset pipeline and strategic initiatives. MindWalk operates a proprietary BioNative AI platform built on patented HYFT ® patterns—evolution shaped subsequence codes that link sequence, structure and function. These patterns underpin LensAI™, a software platform that harmonizes and analyzes diverse biological data to deliver actionable insights.

We look forward to sharing additional insights on our pipeline and strategic partnerships in mid-January, ahead of the J.P. Morgan Healthcare Conference.

Financial Highlights (Quarter Ended October 31, 2025)

Strategic and Operational Highlights

Major portfolio progress

Rebranding and leadership expansion

The Company completed its corporate rebranding to MindWalk and consolidated its operating units under the HYFT Nasdaq ticker. During the quarter MindWalk welcomed Scott Areglado as Chief Financial Officer and Dr. Thomas Lynch as Chief Business Officer.

Strategic divestiture

MindWalk closed the sale of its Netherlands operations, generating net proceeds of $14.3 million. The divestiture allows the Company to allocate resources toward its BioNative AI initiatives and high value wet lab programs aligned with LensAI.

New structure for AI asset pipeline

MindWalk has initiated the formation of a corporation in the Cayman Islands with Walkers law firm to house segregated portfolios for each AI driven program. Under this structure, assets and liabilities for each program will be ringfenced, allowing investors to participate directly in individual portfolios rather than through the public company. Management has received strong expressions of interest from prospective investors and will provide further details as the structure is finalized.

Upcoming strategic update

MindWalk plans to issue a press release through national media channels on the first day of the J.P. Morgan Healthcare Conference, January 12th. This update will include new information on the AI asset pipeline and the Company’s capital and partnering strategy.

Comments from Management

“Our second quarter delivered both strong financial performance and meaningful scientific progress. Revenue grew 54 % year over year, and gross profit nearly doubled—up an impressive 94 % to $2.7 million—while margins expanded significantly as we continued to build momentum across our core programs,” commented Dr. Jennifer Bath, CEO of MindWalk. “We advanced our GLP1 receptor agonists and identified a companion longevity pathway, while our research uncovered a conserved dengue epitope that could underpin a universal vaccine. Equally important, we took deliberate steps to align our corporate structure with this vision, including the divestiture of noncore operations, key leadership appointments, and the initiation of a Cayman based structure to house and finance our AI asset portfolios. These achievements reflect disciplined planning and purposeful execution. We look forward to sharing additional insights on our pipeline and strategic partnerships in mid-January, ahead of the J.P. Morgan Healthcare Conference.”
