There was a moment in the past when AC8 back in 2017/18 was on a tear, reaching I think $1.75.  Giddy days.  One direction since then closing yesterday below $0.10.  

CEOs have come and gone, acquisitions been made, restructures and more restructures, clinical trials, registrations...  but not much gets sold...

30th August 2021AusCann Group Holdings (ASX:AC8) (“AusCann” or “the Company”) is pleased to provide the following commentary to accompany the release of its audited financial results for the year ended 30 June 2021 (FY2021).

Operating Results and Financial Position 

The loss of the consolidated entity for the financial year was $8,641,391 (2020: $7,076,213), which included $212,511 of non-cash share-based payments, a $2,593,417 non-cash impairment of raw material inventories, and once-off costs of $1,172,798 relating to the acquisition of CannPal Animal Therapeutics Limited (CannPal).

Excluding one-off costs associated with the CannPal acquisition, the net cash used in operating activities reduced by 45% in the financial year to $5,759,140 (2020: $10,550,511) due to reductions in statutory expenses, shared resources, operational efficiencies, and a streamlined organisational structure as a result of the CannPal acquisition and a restructuring of the AusCann business.

Direct research and development expenses of $2,947,926 (2020: $2,707,134) accounted for 51% of the Company’s net cash operating cash outflows for FY21 and relates to core value generating activities for the Company’s lead medicinal cannabis programs.

Total income for the Company was up 7% predominately due to the refund from the Australian Taxation Office of $1,561,518 (2020: $1,207,175) in accordance with the Australian Government’s Research and Development Tax Incentive Program.

AusCann remains well funded with net assets of $44,427,696 (2020 $34,635,972) and a net cash position of $13,679,923. The Company is heading into the new year with an improved cost-base, a restructured organisation, and a heavy focus on the development of differentiated, high value cannabinoid-based pharmaceuticals for registration in human and animal pathways.
