Minerva reports Q4 adjusted EPS (64c) vs. (53c) last year

“Strengthened by the recent financing and our general alignment with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) on trial design, we are working towards initiation of the confirmatory Phase 3 trial with roluperidone for the treatment of negative symptoms of schizophrenia in the second quarter,” said Dr. Remy Luthringer, Chairman and CEO of Minerva (NERV) Neurosciences. “With the $80 million upfront proceeds and the exercise proceeds from the Tranche A warrants, we anticipate sufficient funds to complete the Phase 3 trial and resubmission of the New Drug Application (“NDA”) ahead of the launch of roluperidone in the United States, if approved.”
