"This quarter has been an exciting period for DelMar. Our priority is to leverage VAL-083’s unique mechanism of action to efficiently advance it into the most promising indications, including MGMT-unmethylated glioblastoma and platinum-resistant ovarian cancer. We now have a revised VAL-083 development strategy that is focused on MGMT methylation status in glioblastoma, which has become routine in clinical practice as a biomarker which correlates with resistance to the standard-of-care chemotherapy with temozolomide (Temodar "TMZ"), and patient outcomes. We believe using this biomarker will allow us to optimize patient selection for treatment with our lead drug candidate, VAL-083, thereby streamlining development and enhancing opportunities for success in our clinical development programs," commented Saiid Zarrabian, Interim President and Chief Executive Officer.

KEY DEVELOPMENTS AND UPDATED STRATEGIC PLAN

Evaluation of MGMT promoter methylation status has increasingly become common practice in the diagnostic assessment of glioblastoma multiforme (GBM). DelMar believes that this provides it with an enhanced ability to leverage MGMT methylation as a biomarker to optimize patient selection for DelMar’s novel DNA-targeting agent in the treatment of GBM.
The National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN), provided updated guidelines for the standard treatment of GBM based on MGMT methylation status. DelMar believes these recently published guidelines may allow the Company to capitalize on VAL-083’s unique mechanism of action and activity in the estimated 60 percent of GBM patients whose tumors are MGMT-unmethylated.
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) allowed a second Investigational New Drug Application (IND) to enable DelMar to study its lead drug candidate, VAL-083, as a potential treatment for ovarian cancer.
In November 2017, at the annual meeting of the Society for NeuroOncology (SNO), DelMar presented a positive interim update from its ongoing open label Phase 2 clinical trial in patients with MGMT-unmethylated recurrent GBM (rGBM) whose tumors have recurred following treatment with temozolomide (Avastin naïve). This study, which was initiated in February 2017, is being conducted at the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center.
In December 2017, the FDA fully approved Avastin (bevacizumab) which may impact our ability to recruit suitable patients for our STAR-3 Phase 3 clinical trial.
In December 2017, the FDA granted Fast Track designation for VAL-083, in recurrent glioblastoma.
Based on the above developments, and other factors as stated in DelMar’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended December 31, 2017 (10-Q) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on February 14, 2018, DelMar has decided to put the STAR-3 program on hold for up to 12 months and will suspend further site or patient enrollment. This will allow DelMar to fully evaluate the possible impact of Avastin’s recent approval by the FDA on patient enrollment for this study, and possible protocol amendments, non-dilutive financing sources, as well as to increase focus on the MGMT-unmethylated clinical studies currently underway as further described in the SEC filings. During this interim evaluation period, DelMar will continue to provide treatment to patients already enrolled in the STAR-3 trial, and consider, on a case-by-case basis, and subject to required institutional and regulatory approvals, providing VAL-083 to patients in accordance with our expanded access policy
Based on this updated strategy, DelMar believes it has cash available into the second quarter of calendar 2019.

Excluding the impact of non-cash expense, research and development expenses increased to $3,955,187 during the six months ended December 31, 2017 compared to $1,863,529 for the same period in the prior year. The increase was largely attributable to VAL-083 clinical development and manufacturing costs related to the Company’s STAR-3 refractory-GBM clinical trial and two Phase 2 clinical trials in MGMT-unmethylated GBM.

Excluding the impact of non-cash expenses, general and administrative expenses increased in the current six months to $1,586,005 compared to $1,307,175 for the six months ended December 31, 2016.

We believe, based on our current estimates, that we will be able to fund our operations into the second quarter of calendar year 2019.

(a) The adjustment for taxes excludes tax benefits that management believes are not directly related to on-going operations and which are either isolated or cannot be expected to occur again with any regularity or predictability. For the three months ended January 31, 2018, management uses a non-GAAP effective tax rate of 18.0%. In the same periods last year, management used a non-GAAP effective tax rate of 19.0%.

(b) GAAP diluted net loss per share was computed using 323 million weighted average diluted shares which excludes from consideration the anti-dilutive effects of all potential common shares outstanding.

(c) Non-GAAP diluted net income per share was computed using 327 million weighted average diluted shares which includes the dilutive effects of potential common shares outstanding.

We provide non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP net income per share amounts in order to provide meaningful supplemental information regarding our operational performance and our prospects for the future. These supplemental measures exclude, among other things, charges related to amortization of intangibles, transformational initiatives, acquisition and integration costs, pension settlement gain, NASD site costs, special compliance costs, and adjustment for Tax Reform.

Transformational initiatives include expenses associated with targeted cost reduction activities such as manufacturing transfers, small site consolidations, legal entity and other business reorganizations, insourcing or outsourcing of activities. Such costs may include move and relocation costs, one-time termination benefits and other one-time reorganization costs. Included in this category are also expenses associated with the post-separation resizing of the IT infrastructure and streamlining of IT system as well as company programs to transform our product lifecycle management (PLM) system and financial systems.

Acquisition and Integration costs include all incremental expenses incurred to effect a business combination. Such acquisition costs may include advisory, legal, accounting, valuation, and other professional or consulting fees. Such integration costs may include expenses directly related to integration of business and facility operations, the transfer of assets and intellectual property, information technology systems and infrastructure and other employee-related costs.

Pension settlement gain resulted from transfer of the substitutional portion of our Japanese pension plan to the government.

NASD site costs include all the costs related to the expansion of our manufacturing of nucleic acid active pharmaceutical ingredients incurred prior to the commencement of commercial manufacturing.

Special compliance costs include costs associated with transforming our processes to implement new regulations such as the EU’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), revenue recognition and certain tax reporting requirements.

Other includes certain legal costs and settlements in addition to other miscellaneous adjustments.

Adjustment for Tax Reform primarily consists of an estimated provision of $480 million for U.S. transition tax and correlative items on deemed repatriated earnings of non-U.S. subsidiaries and an estimated provision of $53 million associated with the decrease in the U.S. corporate tax rate from 35% to 21% and its impact on our U.S. deferred tax assets and liabilities. The taxes payable associated with the transition tax, net of tax attributes, on deemed repatriation of foreign earnings is approximately $440 million, payable over 8 years. The final impact of Tax Reform may differ materially from these estimates, due to, among other things, changes in interpretations, analysis and assumptions made, additional guidance that may be issued, and actions that we may undertake.

Our management uses non-GAAP measures to evaluate the performance of our core businesses, to estimate future core performance and to compensate employees. Since management finds this measure to be useful, we believe that our investors benefit from seeing our results "through the eyes" of management in addition to seeing our GAAP results. This information facilitates our management’s internal comparisons to our historical operating results as well as to the operating results of our competitors.

Our management recognizes that items such as amortization of intangibles can have a material impact on our cash flows and/or our net income. Our GAAP financial statements including our statement of cash flows portray those effects. Although we believe it is useful for investors to see core performance free of special items, investors should understand that the excluded items are actual expenses that may impact the cash available to us for other uses. To gain a complete picture of all effects on the company’s profit and loss from any and all events, management does (and investors should) rely upon the GAAP income statement. The non-GAAP numbers focus instead upon the core business of the company, which is only a subset, albeit a critical one, of the company’s performance.

Readers are reminded that non-GAAP numbers are merely a supplement to, and not a replacement for, GAAP financial measures. They should be read in conjunction with the GAAP financial measures. It should be noted as well that our non-GAAP information may be different from the non-GAAP information provided by other companies.

The preliminary non-GAAP net income and diluted EPS reconciliation is estimated based on our current information.

(a) We compare the year-over-year change in revenue excluding the effect of recent acquisitions and divestitures and foreign currency rate fluctuations to assess the performance of our underlying business. To determine the impact of currency fluctuations, current and prior year period results for entities reporting in currencies other than United States dollars are converted into United States dollars at the actual exchange rate in effect during the last month of the current period.

The preliminary reconciliation of GAAP revenue adjusted for recent acquisitions and divestitures and impact of currency is estimated based on our current information.
