Edison Issues Update on Sunesis Pharmaceuticals (SNSS)
LONDON, August 9, 2016 /PRNewswire/ --
On 29 July 2016, Sunesis announced financial results for Q216 and provided updated guidance on the Qinprezo and SNS-062 development programs. The company reported a net loss of $10.4m for the quarter on the back of $6.6m in R&D spending. It also announced that it had met the EMA to clarify some of the questions submitted as part of the Qinprezo MAA process. Additionally, Sunesis announced that the first clinical trial data on BTK inhibitor SNS-062 will be released at a medical conference in September 2016.

We have slightly decreased our valuation to $153.8m or $1.77 per basic share ($1.42 per diluted share), from $156.2m or $1.80 per basic share ($1.46 per diluted share). The decrease reflects a lower net cash balance for Q216 ($18.8m) and a slight increase in our R&D spending assumptions ($24m from $23m for FY16). This is offset by rolling over our NPVs to Q216. We maintain that Sunesis will need $95m in additional financing to reach profitability in 2021. We will likely update our valuation based on the EMA decision and the conclusion of the European partnering process.
