Development Strategy and Financial Resources
Philippe Archinard, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, stated: “Our strategic priority is to develop our products in combination with ICIs and existing standard of care. The implementation of our ambitious development plan in combination with ICIs is well underway. In addition, the promising TG4010 data accumulated to date places us in a position to now consider a possible Conditional Marketing Approval1 submission in Europe. We are currently evaluating the means by which such a project, including the associated phase 3 trial in first line NSCLC, could be implemented. We will provide an update when available.” Philippe Archinard added: “We are in an excellent position to carry out our plans and achieve the goal of becoming a leader in active immunotherapies in oncology and infectious diseases.”
Following the completion of its restructuring plan, Transgene announced on the 7th January 2016, its strategy based on its unique and well-known strengths in the immune-engineering of viral vectors and on its expertise in pre-clinical and clinical development. Transgene’s strategy is to give priority to combination studies with other immunotherapy products, including ICIs.
Transgene is an active player in this new paradigm where it has key strengths. Combining active immunotherapeutics with ICIs has been widely validated by the scientific community and it offers Transgene the potential to further assess synergies in the treatment of certain cancers and infectious diseases, with the aim of improving treatment outcomes and the quality of life of patients.
Transgene is in ongoing discussions with clinical and biopharmaceutical partners to start at least five clinical studies in combination with ICIs for its two most advanced products. These studies should be initiated during the second half of 2016.
The main combination programs are:
- Combination of TG4010 with an ICI in the first- and second-line treatment of advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients.
- Combination of Pexa-Vec with an ICI in the first-line treatment of advanced HCC, and as well as for the treatment of other solid tumors.
Transgene is also further strengthening its translational research capabilities through collaborations with academic institutions. Transgene expects to organize an R&D day in the second half of 2016 to showcase its capabilities and partnerships.
After the close of fiscal year 2015, Transgene announced that it had secured up to €30 million in new funding from two sources:
- A loan of €20 million from the EIB (European Investment Bank) under the IDFF (Infectious Diseases Finance Facility) program.
- A commitment by its major shareholder, Institut Mérieux, to provide additional funding of approximately €10 million. Details of the financing will be provided at a later date.
With these new sources of funding and the impact of the restructuring plan, the Company should have sufficient funds for scheduled operating activities through 2017.
Jean-Philippe Del, Vice President, Finance, said: “During 2015 we implemented a cost savings plan to complement the restructuring program and took the steps necessary to secure additional financing, which we were able to obtain early this year. With the new structure now in place, we are in a good position to effectively implement our ambitious development plans and advance the Company’s goals”.
Operational Outlook - next 12 months:

Appendix B: Management Discussion of 2015 Financials
Revenue:
During the periods under review, revenues from collaborative and licensing agreements mainly included:
- research and development services for third parties (including Emergent Biosolutions, Inc. for a product candidate against tuberculosis) amounting to €0.8 million in 2015 (€1.0 million in 2014); and
- income related to commercial use of technologies or products provided under license by Transgene, amounting to €0.7 million in 2015 (€0.6 million in 2014).
At December 31, 2015, government financing for research expenditures
consisted of grants received and receivable, as well as a research tax
credit.
Research grants amounted to €0.2 million in 2015 (€0.6
million in 2014).
The research tax credit (CIR - crédit impôt
recherche) amounted to €7.9 million in 2015 (€8.8 million in 2014).
Related eligible expenses (net of grants received during the fiscal
year) amounted to €25.8 million in 2015 and €29.8 million in 2014. This
decrease in expenses was due to lower eligible research and development
(R&D) expenses (€26.9 million in 2015 versus €31.2 million in 2014),
including operating expenses, clinical trial expenses and outsourced R&D
expenses.
Operating expenses:
R&D expenses amounted to €32.1 million in 2015, compared to €41.7 million in 2014, at constant perimeter. This decrease was due to (i) a reduction in payroll costs and operating expenses as a result of the restructuring plan initiated in 2015, and (ii) a decrease in external expenses for clinical and other projects.
The following table details R&D expenses by type:
In millions of euros |
Dec. 31, 2015 | Dec. 31, 2014 | Change | |||
Payroll costs | 14.6 | 16.1 | -9% | |||
Share-based payments | 0.3 | 0.5 | -40% | |||
Intellectual property expenses and licensing costs | 1.5 | 1.3 | +15% | |||
External expenses for clinical projects | 4.2 | 7.6 | -45% | |||
External expenses for other projects | 4.4 | 7.6 | -42% | |||
Operating expenses | 5.1 | 6.7 | -24% | |||
Depreciation and provisions | 2.0 | 1.9 | +5% | |||
Research and development expenses | 32.1 | 41.7 | -23% |
Employee costs allocated to R&D (salaries, employer contributions and related expenses) amounted to €14.6 million in 2015, compared to €16.1 million in 2014. This decrease was due to the cost savings measures implemented in 2015, including not filling job openings and not renewing temporary employment contracts, as a complement to the restructuring plan.
Intellectual property and licensing expenses amounted to €1.5 million in 2015 versus €1.3 million in 2014.
External expenses for clinical trials amounted to €4.2 million in 2015 versus €7.6 million in 2014. This significant decrease (-45%) was due to the following:
- the decrease in 2015 in the number of patients treated in the Phase 2b part of the Phase 2b/3 TIME trial with TG4010 in lung cancer following the completion of this part of the study and in development costs for related companion diagnostic tests (€1.5 million in external expenses for this program in 2015 versus €4.8 million in 2014);
- the completion in 2014 of the TRAVERSE study, a Phase 2b clinical trial with Pexa-Vec for the second-line treatment of advanced liver cancer (no external expenses in 2015 versus €1.4 million in 2014);
- conversely, costs in 2015 related to the initiation of two new clinical trials - a Phase 3 trial with Pexa-Vec and a Phase 1 trial with TG1050 - of €1.7 million and €0.8 million, respectively.
Other external expenses, including expenses for research, pre-clinical and manufacturing projects, amounted to €4.4 million in 2015 versus €7.6 million in 2014. This decrease was due to lower expenses related to regulatory toxicology studies and sub-contracting manufacturing of TG1050 (€0.3 million in 2015 versus €1.5 million in 2014) and a decrease in expenses for the commercial production unit with Sanofi/Genzyme (€1.8 million in 2015 versus €2.6 million in 2014).
Operating expenses, including the cost of operating research laboratories, amounted to €5.1 million in 2015 versus €6.7 million in 2014.
General and administrative (G&A) expenses amounted to €5.8 million in 2015 versus €7.6 million in 2014.
The following table details G&A expenses by type:
In millions of euros | Dec. 31, 2015 | Dec. 31, 2014 | Change | |||
Payroll costs | 2.9 | 3.7 | -22% | |||
Share-based payments | 0.1 | 0.2 | -50% | |||
Fees and administrative expenses | 1.7 | 2.5 | -32% | |||
Other fixed costs | 1.0 | 1.1 | -9% | |||
Depreciation and provisions | 0.1 | 0.1 | N/S | |||
General and administrative expenses | 5.8 | 7.6 | -24% |
Employee costs allocated to G&A amounted to €2.9 million in 2015 versus €3.7 million in 2014. This decrease was mainly due to a staff reduction in financial and administrative support functions.
Fees and administrative expenses amounted to €1.7 million in 2015 versus €2.5 million in 2014.
Other revenue and expenses, net
Other expenses, net amounted to €7.4 million in 2015 versus €1.4 million in 2014.
The decision in 2015 to restructure the Company resulted in a net restructuring charge of €7.5 million in 2015.
In 2014, the capital operations related to Platine Pharma Services SAS resulted in a net expense of €0.7 million, and the sale of shares in Jennerex, Inc. resulted in a net expense of €0.2 million.
Interest income (expense):
Net interest expense amounted to €0.9 million in 2015 versus €0.8 million in 2014.
Financial income (investment income) amounted to €0.5 million in 2015 versus €0.3 million in 2014.
Interest expense mainly consisted of bank interest on the financing of the research tax credit (€0.4 million), discount of the advances received by Bpifrance under the ADNA (Advanced Diagnostics for New Therapeutic Approaches) program (€0.6 million), interest on financing leases (€0.2 million) and a decrease in Transgene’s estimated interest in Sillajen, Inc. subsequent to the disposal of Jennerex, Inc. shares (€0.3 million).
Net loss from continuing operations:
Net loss from continuing operations was €37.9 million in 2015, compared to €41.1 million in 2014, at constant perimeter.
Net loss from discontinued operations:
Net loss from discontinued manufacturing operations amounted to €8.5 million in 2015, compared to €7.4 million in 2014, at constant perimeter. Net loss consisted of:
- €0.5 million in revenue from manufacturing in 2015 (€0.6 million in 2014);
- €6.0 million in expenses in 2015 (€8.1 million in 2014);
- €2.9 million in loss from the evaluation of assets held for sale measured at fair value.
Total net loss:
Total net loss for 2015 was €46.4 million (€48.6 million in 2014). Net loss per share was €1.20 in 2015 (€1.26 in 2014).
Investments:
Investments in tangible and intangible assets (net of disposals) amounted to €1.4 million in 2015 (€2.3 million in 2014).
Repayable advances and loans:
In 2015, the Company refinanced its 2014 research tax credit of €8.9 million through a bank loan with Bpifrance, which matures in mid-2018, at which time the receivable is expected to be paid by the French government.
In 2015, Transgene also received €0.9 million (€0.8 million in 2014) in repayable advances for the ADNA program, which receives public funding from Bpifrance. Since the start of the ADNA program, the Company has received €14.3 million in repayable advances under this program. The Company may receive up to €1.7 million in additional repayable advances over the remaining term of the ADNA program (until 2017).
Liquidity and capital resources:
The Company's cash is invested in short-term money-market mutual funds or placed, at market conditions, in a cash pool managed by the majority shareholder of Transgene, Institut Mérieux.
At December 31, 2015, the Company's available cash amounted to €31.7 million versus €65.9 million at December 31, 2014.
At the date of this document, the Company had no bank debt subject to covenants.
Cash flow:
Excluding capital increases, the Company's net cash burn amounted to €34.8 million in 2015 versus €44.9 million in 2014.
Post-closing events:
In early January, the Company obtained a loan of €20 million from the EIB (European Investment Bank) under the IDFF (Infectious Diseases Finance Facility) program. This is a 5-year loan, without securities granted, and the principal and accumulated interest will be reimbursable only from the fourth year. The loan will be released in two tranches at the request of the Company and no security was granted by the Company
Transgene has also received a commitment by its major shareholder, the Institut Mérieux, to provide additional financing of around 10 million euros, confirming its support of the Company’s strategy.
In early February 2016, Transgene announced the sale of the assets of its biomanufacturing unit, based in Illkirch-Graffenstaden, to ABL Europe SAS, a Contract Manufacturing Organization wholly-owned subsidiary of ABL, Inc. and member of the Institut Mérieux. This production assets was sold for a total amount of €3.5 million. ABL Europe has become a sub-lessee of Transgene’s main building for the use of quality control laboratories. In parallel, both companies have signed a three-year agreement under which Transgene has secured the production of the necessary clinical lots for its clinical development plan. The sale by Transgene of its production asset was the last step of the company’s reorganization decided in June 2015 which aimed to outsource the manufacturing of clinical lots and to focus on the company’s core expertise, the immuno-engineering of viral vectors and clinical developments.
1 CMA: conditional marketing approvals are granted to products that address unmet medical needs and whose availability would result in a significant public health benefit. Consideration for full marketing authorization is contingent upon the completion of a Phase III study.
