Chimerix - Q1 2024

May 1, 2024

Executive Summary

  • Q1 2024 delivered a pre‑revenue quarter with disciplined spend: net loss of $21.9M ($0.25 per share), R&D $18.8M, G&A $5.5M; capital available to fund operations was $188.2M and no debt.
  • ONC201 Phase 3 ACTION study continued steady-state accrual across 135+ sites in 13 countries; the company reiterated interim OS data in 2025 and final OS in 2026.
  • New regulatory catalyst: Australia’s TGA agreed ONC201 meets criteria to advance to Provisional Determination; Chimerix targets a filing around year-end 2024 with potential commercial availability in 2026.
  • ONC206 progressed in Phase 1 dose escalation with no dose-limiting toxicities to date; preliminary safety and PK data expected mid‑2024/summer.
  • Cash runway guided “into 4Q 2026,” supporting pivotal ACTION milestones and near-term ONC206 readouts; management highlighted capital efficiency (rolling 4Q burn ~$58M).

What Went Well and What Went Wrong

What Went Well

  • ACTION enrollment and site activation remain on track for interim OS in 2025; management cited “steady state accrual” and strong global demand including patient travel to sites.
  • Regulatory momentum: TGA presubmission concluded ONC201’s Phase 2 dataset likely meets criteria for provisional approval; ONC201 can advance to Provisional Determination.
  • ONC206 safety profile intact with intensified dosing; no dose-limiting toxicities observed and preliminary safety/PK readout expected this summer.
    • Quote: “We remain intensely focused on completion of the ACTION study… and will continue to be active and collaborative with regulators to bring dordaviprone to patients in need as soon as possible.” – CEO Mike Andriole.

What Went Wrong

  • Revenue declined to zero (vs $0.283M prior-year), reflecting absence of TEMBEXA-related revenue streams; net loss widened sequentially vs Q4 2023 though improved vs Q3 2023.
  • Near-term catalysts remain largely non-revenue: core stock drivers (interim OS, TGA path) are multi-quarter, limiting near-term fundamental inflection.
  • Enrollment/event-rate variability still a swing factor; management noted levers needed for an “early 2025” interim (accelerated enrollment, event rates, expanded markets).

Transcript

Allen Melemed (Chief Medical Officer)

Good morning, ladies and gentlemen, and welcome to the Chimerix First Quarter 2024 Earnings Conference Call. I would now like to introduce you to your host for today's call, Will O'Connor of Stern Investor Relations. Please proceed.

Will O'Connor (Head of Investor Relations)

Thank you, operator. Good morning, everyone, and welcome to the Chimerix first quarter 2024 financial and operating results conference call. This morning, we issued a press release related to our first quarter operating update. You can access the press release in our investors section of the website. With me on today's call are President and Chief Executive Officer, Mike Andriole; Chief Medical Officer, Allen Melemed; Chief Operating and Commercial Officer, Tom Riga; Chief Financial Officer, Michelle LaSpaluto; and Chief Technology Officer, Josh Allen. Before we begin, I'd like to remind you that the statements made on today's call will include forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and are subject to risks and uncertainties and other factors. These risks and uncertainties and other factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those referred to in the forward-looking statements.

Please refer to our filings with the SEC for a more complete disclosure of these risks and uncertainties. At this time, I'll now turn the call over to Chimerix President and Chief Executive Officer, Mike Andriole.

Mike Andriole (President and CEO)

Thanks, Will, and good morning, everyone, and thank you for joining us. I'm pleased to be joined this morning by other members of our senior leadership team to share an update on a productive quarter across several key initiatives. A primary strategic importance to Chimerix this year is the continued focus and drive of enrollment in the Phase 3 ACTION study, towards which the team continued to execute at a high level during the first quarter. The study remains on track for first interim readout next year and is reaching steady-state accrual. The success of the ACTION study, which is the most advanced trial on H3K27M-mutant glioma, is central to our strategy as a positive outcome likely represents approval of the first medicine to treat this specific disease.

As the organization drives ACTION enrollment, we are keenly aware of the significant unmet need for patients with this disease, as there are no approved treatment options available that have proven a clinical benefit beyond radiation therapy in H3K27M-mutant glioma. As a result, our team is continuously evaluating registration pathways globally to accelerate commercial access to dordaviprone, also known as ONC-201, where possible. As we undertake this effort, we are also aware that having a pivotal Phase III study well underway is an important consideration in global regulatory conversations that contemplate accelerated approval, and the ongoing maturation of ACTION enrollment enables such discussions. To that end, I want to share a set of experiences that have been complementary to our strategy and underscore the magnitude of the unmet need we see every day with this lethal disease.

Late last year, I received a communication from the Australian Minister of Health inquiring about dordaviprone for patients in need within his country. During this interaction, the topic of provisional approval in Australia was raised, which is similar to the accelerated approval pathway in the United States. This interaction was the catalyst to our recent pre-submission meeting in Australia with the Therapeutic Goods Administration, or TGA, to explore dordaviprone's eligibility to advance for provisional registration in Australia. That pathway is a three-step process, which begins with a pre-submission evaluation of the current data set in recurrent disease, as well as other program features, including the status of pivotal studies. We're pleased with the outcome from this meeting and intend to advance dordaviprone to the second step in the process, the provisional determination application. I'll let Allen provide more details on the process going forward.

To be clear, we recognize that dordaviprone remains early in the provisional registration process. However, we are sharing the outcome of this meeting now as we are encouraged by TGA's review of the program to date and their conclusion that the Phase II data set does potentially meet their criteria for provisional approval. This, along with the status of the Phase III ACTION study, supports advancement in the provisional registration process. This example is emblematic of our overall strategy to accelerate global access to dordaviprone, and we're eager to partner with the TGA in Australia to further advance dordaviprone towards potential provisional registration. Turning to our second generation of imipridone, ONC-206, we have increasing confidence in the safety profile, therapeutic window, and potential for novel and differentiated indications from the parent compound, dordaviprone.

While Phase I safety studies are not yet complete, we are nevertheless preparing development strategies for this program that we expect to share before the end of the year as we near a Phase II investment decision. I'll let Josh frame this process further as we look into the second half of 2024. Finally, financially, the company remains on strong footing, and we continue to execute with financial discipline. Michelle will provide a full summary of our financial performance in the first quarter and insights into cash runway. I'll now turn the call over to Allen to discuss the process and path we're undertaking in Australia. Allen?

Allen Melemed (Chief Medical Officer)

Thanks, Mike, and good morning, everyone. As Mike mentioned, our development strategy is to accelerate access to dordaviprone as quickly as possible for patients in need around the world. We expect that the vast majority of countries will require positive results of our Phase III ACTION study, as this is designed to provide a definitive assessment of safety and efficacy in a randomized trial in the frontline setting of H3K27M-mutant diffuse glioma. That being said, as ACTION enrollment advances, we are exploring options for early approval in the recurrent setting where regulatory pathways allow. The recent interaction with the TGA in Australia was very supportive of moving to the next step in the provisional registration process based on 3 attributes: 1, a high unmet need in H3K27M-mutant glioma. 2, the encouraging Phase II data in the recurrent setting and additional supportive data.

Three, our current progress in the ACTION study. We find the outcome of this meeting both validating to the program and complementary to our broader strategy. The unmet need here is undeniable, and the potential of bringing this promising treatment to patients sooner is inspiring to me as a pediatric oncologist. We will work collaboratively with the TGA as our data point advances to the next step in the process over the coming months. Once the provisional determination application is submitted, the review process is expected to last about a month. If successful, an application for provisional registration will be submitted, and that review process will take approximately one year. We expect a filing could be submitted by the end of 2024, with potential commercial availability in 2026.

Our organization is preparing an NDA submission in parallel to the execution of the ACTION study to ensure readiness for early stopping scenarios and upcoming interim efficacy analyses. The potential to submit to TGA is complementary to the regulatory work already in progress. Tom will have much more to say about the specific commercial opportunity and plans as those timelines and activities come into focus later this year. With that, I'll turn the call over to Josh Allen to discuss ONC-206. Josh?

Josh Allen (CTO)

Thank you, Allen, and good morning, everyone. In addition to dordaviprone, we are also excited about our earlier-stage programs. Regarding Phase I evaluation of ONC-206, dose escalation remains on track to report preliminary safety and pharmacokinetic findings this summer. As a reminder, the compound is being evaluated in pediatric and adult patients with advanced CNS tumors. Dose escalation on a once-per-week basis, with doses ranging from 50-350 milligrams, has completed without limiting safety signals and is now being evaluated on an intensified dose schedule of twice per day for three consecutive days per week. This intensified dose schedule was selected based on observations that the majority of advanced cancer maximize their response to ONC-206 at or prior to this duration of exposure.

While dose escalation studies are inherently adaptive with variable timelines, we remain on track to report preliminary safety and exposure data this summer at dose levels anticipated to be within the therapeutic range. Ensuring that a potential new treatment is present at therapeutic concentration for an adequate amount of time while being adequately safe in humans is the primary aim of Phase I evaluations. Establishing this is critical prior to the next step in clinical development, which will be aimed at efficacy evaluations in carefully selected patient populations. Nonclinical investigations continue in parallel to Phase I to identify and prioritize opportunities for future clinical efficacy evaluation. These include tumors that occur both within and outside of the central nervous system that do not harbor the H3K27M mutation, but do rely on disease drivers that are directly addressed by the therapeutic mechanism of ONC-206.

We are leveraging the dordaviprone clinical experience, as well as the vast knowledge of the multidimensional mechanism of our compounds that impact critical aspects of tumor biology. These include reversal of epigenetic disease drivers, degradation of specific oncogenic proteins, and inactivation of essential pro-survival signaling pathways. We are delighted that some of these concepts are showing promise in the lab, and we look forward to providing more details in the context of a Phase II investment decision anticipated by the end of the year in view of the totality of the program. With that, I will now turn the call over to Michelle for an update on financial results.

Michelle LaSpaluto (CFO)

Thank you, Josh. Earlier today, we issued a press release containing our financial results for the first quarter of 2024. Chimerix's balance sheet at March 31, 2024, included $188.2 million of capital available to fund operations and no outstanding debt. We remain highly disciplined in the financial management of the company. Our rolling four-quarter burn rate of $58 million at the end of Q1 2024 benchmarks us among the most capital-efficient Phase III companies in our peer group. Our approach is to retain strong discipline and gate investment as we evaluate commercial models in the different territories. We continue to expect our cash balance to be sufficient to support operations into 4Q 2026.

Turning to our results for the first quarter of 2024, the company reported a net loss of $21.9 million, or $0.25 per basic and diluted share, compared to a net loss of $21.4 million, or $0.24 per basic and diluted share in the first quarter of 2023. Research and development expenses of $18.8 million were flat compared to the same period in 2023. General and administrative expenses decreased to $5.5 million for the first quarter of 2024, compared to $5.7 million for the same period in 2023. With that, I will now turn the call back over to Mike for closing remarks.

Thanks, Michelle. In closing, a primary strategic importance for Chimerix this year is the continued focus and drive of enrollment in the Phase III ACTION study, for which the team continues to execute at a high level. Additionally, we continue to explore pathways which may accelerate access to dordaviprone for patients with this ultra-rare and lethal disease. More broadly, we're excited about the profile of ONC-206 that is potentially emerging and look forward to reporting preliminary safety and PK data later this summer. At Chimerix, we're devoted to filling gaps in the treatment paradigm in oncology. Despite advances in the field of genetically defined tumors, there remains a significant unmet need, particularly in neuro-oncology, and we're focused on bringing potential new medicines to these patients in need.

I'd like to take this opportunity to thank our dedicated team at Chimerix, as well as the doctors, patients, patient advocates, and caregivers for their unwavering commitment as we move closer to bringing life-altering new medicines to the patients we serve. With that, John, we'll open the call to questions.

Operator (participant)

Thank you. At this time, if you would like to ask a question, please press star, followed by the number one on your telephone keypad. If you would like to withdraw your question, simply press star one again. We'll pause for just a moment to compile the Q&A roster. Your first question comes from the line of Maury Raycroft from Jefferies. Please go ahead.

Maury Raycroft (Equity Research Analyst)

Hi, good morning. Congrats on the progress, and thanks for taking my questions. I was gonna start off with just enrollment for the phase 3. Seeing that you added five additional sites since your fourth quarter update, does that include some of the higher volume ex-US sites and geographies? And can you provide perspective on whether you're seeing a meaningful change in the enrollment and event, event rates in the study, or do you think you'll require more sites to further optimize enrollment?

Mike Andriole (President and CEO)

Hi, Maury. It's Mike, appreciate the question. Yeah, the additional five sites and that have been added recently were sort of part of the initial tranche of sites, so not including the additional sites that we talked about last quarter. And that's probably gonna be less than 10 in any event. It's really strategic for markets where we're seeing patients travel great distances. So those aren't necessary to achieve our enrollment projections, and we continue to expect first interim OS in 2025.

Maury Raycroft (Equity Research Analyst)

Got it. Okay, that's helpful. And then, for getting your filing application submitted to the Australia TGA, got a couple questions there. I guess, what are the gating factors for the application and submission? When and how often do you plan on meeting with the TGA prior to the filing? And what do you anticipate the TGA will want to see as it relates to progress in the Phase 3 ACTION study? Is it just the status of Phase 3 enrollment, or do you expect the approval will be contingent on the interim OS data that you get in 2025?

Mike Andriole (President and CEO)

Oh, yeah, great, great question, Maury. Yeah, so, in terms of, in terms of, what's needed for, for the application and our ongoing interactions, look, the next step in the process is a provisional determination application. We'll initiate that here over the summer, and then they'll evaluate that. Assuming that we move to the final step in the process, the provisional application will resemble, you know, a traditional new drug application. So the overlap between the work we're already doing within the company for creating that document and the submission in Australia, as Alan alluded to earlier, there's a lot of overlap between those two things.

In terms of progress and enrollment, you know, their key consideration is making sure that they'll have definitive safety and efficacy data during the provisional registration period. I think they've already seen enough to feel comfortable with that, and so continued trajectory on the trajectory we're on is, I think, assumed, and of course, we expect there's gonna be additional tailwinds to that, which we've already talked about. Other parts of your question that I missed? There were several.

Maury Raycroft (Equity Research Analyst)

Yeah, just, how often do you plan on meeting with TGA, prior to filing, and, when those meetings could take place? And will you provide updates to the public after those, those meetings?

Mike Andriole (President and CEO)

Yeah, certainly, there's ongoing collaborative interactions with TGA, particularly as we move through this next second phase of the process, the preliminary determination application. And then, we expect to meet with some degree of frequency heading into the third step in the process, assuming that we get that far. So, Allen, I don't know if there's any additional regulatory interactions that you would comment there, but I think that covers it.

Allen Melemed (Chief Medical Officer)

The only thing I'll add, this is Allen, is that the submission is not contingent on the phase 3 trial data. It's to ensure that the trial is well underway at the time of approval for them to make a decision.

Maury Raycroft (Equity Research Analyst)

Got it. Understood.

Mike Andriole (President and CEO)

Great.

Maury Raycroft (Equity Research Analyst)

Okay, thanks for taking my questions. I'll hop back in the queue.

Mike Andriole (President and CEO)

Yep.

Operator (participant)

The next question comes from the line of Naureen Quibria from Capital One. Please go ahead.

Naureen Quibria (Director and Senior Biotech Research Analyst)

Hi, good morning. Congrats on the progress, and thanks for taking my questions. I guess, sort of following up on what Maury just asked regarding the accelerated approval in Australia, the potential for that. Just curious what the commercial opportunity might be in Australia, and also, you know, if you could talk a bit more about other territories that you might be considering along the same lines.

Mike Andriole (President and CEO)

Yeah. So, thanks, thanks, Naureen, for the call, or for the questions. I'll take the second one first, and then I'll ask Tom Riga to comment on the commercial potential in Australia. So look, in terms of other countries, we're focused on the ACTION study first and foremost, as I mentioned, as our key strategic priority. We are evaluating a handful of other countries that have a pathway. As you can imagine, strategically, the timeline of when you could potentially submit there is an important variable as we think about that, because we're just around the corner from a potential first interim OS on the ACTION study next year. So, if we intend to evaluate or pursue a pathway that we're evaluating, we'll update the market at that time.

Tom, comments on commercial potential in Australia?

Tom Riga (COO and Chief Commercial Officer)

Yeah. Hey, Noreen, Tom Riga. I think first, we're excited about the proposition of a submission here by the end of the year, and along with that process, and it runs in sequence and potentially in parallel, is a process with the Australian regulators for pricing, access, and reimbursement, the HTA process. So that market is more analogous to those in Southern Europe and very much different than U.S. Prices are lower. But as we have studied this particular market, there is some room for optimism when we evaluate the criteria for how those evaluations are conducted, and we see attributes of ONC-201 that could be potentially very interesting from a commercial perspective. I think those issues are, one, first-in-class product in an area of high unmet medical need.

I think second is an ultra-rare disease, and third, and I think, of significant importance, is that there is not an anchor product that's currently approved to treat this area of, of illness. So early, but we, we do see some optimism from a commercial standpoint. I think that coupled with the high unaided awareness that exists in-country today within our action sites, along with the efficient network that exists in the neuro-oncology community in Australia, could make for a very lean and efficient commercial model. We do not foresee, significant, investment from a human capital perspective on behalf of Chimerix. We would be looking for in-country collaborations, and, and we'll have much more to say about that as we, as we progress in the process.

Naureen Quibria (Director and Senior Biotech Research Analyst)

Got it. That's helpful. Thank you. I guess one more from me on ONC-206, the dose escalation trials. You know, I know you're not commenting on what stage it's at, but, you know, let's say, in terms of both the trials, are they moving at the same pace? You know, for instance, if you have adult data and the pediatric is incomplete, will you still report data from one trial if the other is incomplete in that time frame?

Mike Andriole (President and CEO)

Thanks, Noreen. Josh, would you like to answer that?

Josh Allen (CTO)

Yeah, thanks for the question, Naureen. I mean, both, both trials in adults and pediatrics are proceeding in parallel. There's some nuances in the exact design and kind of how they play out in different ways, but at the end of the day, I think what you can expect to see on the next quarter is us provide an update on key safety and pharmacokinetic information from both of the studies. I think, you know, across the different dose levels and cohorts, et cetera, I think we would expect to have an experience that's around 75 patients. It's gonna be a little pediatric skewed, I'd say about 2/3 of that aggregate population, just because the pediatric trial has enrolled in a couple of settings, in contrast to the adult study. So you can expect to see, safety and PK information represented from, from both trials.

Naureen Quibria (Director and Senior Biotech Research Analyst)

Okay, terrific. Thanks. Thanks for taking my question.

Operator (participant)

The next question comes from the line of Soumit Roy from Jones Research. Please go ahead.

Soumit Roy (Biotech Equity Research Analyst)

Good morning, everyone, and congratulations again on progress on every front. Quick question on, with the approval of Day One's tovorafenib. Is there any overlap between H3K27M and BRAF alteration, or are you expecting any change in enrollment pace across both for 206 or 201?

Mike Andriole (President and CEO)

Great, great, question, Sumit, and, and, a contemporary one. I'll ask Josh to-

Soumit Roy (Biotech Equity Research Analyst)

Hello?

Mike Andriole (President and CEO)

-to comment on that specifically, but before I do, I just want to pause and congratulate Day One on that approval. It's a meaningful milestone for the field of neuro-oncology. I think by our count, that's the third genetically defined approval in the field in the last several years. And after a dearth of innovation over the last quarter century, that's a really significant milestone and quite meaningful for pediatric patients with low-grade glioma. So, congratulations to that team, and we're excited for the field. Josh, do you want to talk about the overlap between H3K27M and BRAF?

Josh Allen (CTO)

Yeah, thanks, Mike, and I think well said to the congratulations for Day One. Yeah, I think first and foremost, the thing to point out is that H3K27M doesn't really co-occur with other actionable mutations, and that includes the BRAF fusions and V600E population. So these are populations of patients that really don't overlap. The final thing I would point out, Sumit, is just that in the unlikely event that you do have a patient that has a co-occurrence, I would just highlight that the accelerated approval for tovorafenib was in the relapsed or recurrent setting, and our Phase III trial is focused in the frontline setting. So again, co-occurrence would be exceedingly rare based on the available evidence. There's actually an opportunity to sequence therapy following the ACTION.

Soumit Roy (Biotech Equity Research Analyst)

The other thing is, I don't know if you can provide any color, as you are expanding globally, is the percent of H3K27M mutation still according to your initial market survey of 8%-10%, or is it changing, depending on U.S. versus ex-U.S.? And, the second one is, are you seeing, in ex-U.S. territories, any difference in prior treatment how patients are being handled. Last time you mentioned ex-U.S. patients have more temozolomide usage. Anything else you are seeing that could affect the ACTION expected results?

Mike Andriole (President and CEO)

Yeah. Thanks, Soumit, for the question. I'll take the first one on just the ex-US percent of the mutation, and I'll ask Allen to talk about what we're seeing in terms of different standards of care, if any, broadly speaking geographically. On your first one, Soumit, you know, the percentage with H3K27M in terms of incidence, we have no reason to conclude that it's different country to country or within different races. In fact, our proportion of enrollment relative to where we have sites is almost uniform globally, and it's kinda consistent with that conclusion. So no reason to expect any geographic differences in terms of the mutation. Allen, would you like to comment on the standards of care?

Allen Melemed (Chief Medical Officer)

Thank you for the question, Soumit. In general, the standard of care worldwide is still radiation therapy for these patients. There's a slight difference that you may see in the U.S. Some patients are receiving proton beam radiation, but as a whole, it's still radiation as the mainstay. There are some patients who are receiving temozolomide. This is typically more in the adult setting. Pediatric patients globally do not, but there is a little higher incidence of prior temozolomide, even in the pediatric patients, globally.

Soumit Roy (Biotech Equity Research Analyst)

Thank you, and congratulations again.

Operator (participant)

The next question comes from the line of Joel Beatty from Baird. Please go ahead.

Ben Paluch (VP and Senior Research Associate)

Hi, this is Ben Paluch on for Joel Beatty. Thanks for taking the question. On the future development path of ONC206, would it be possible to give us a sense of what's being contemplated? Is that a monotherapy? Is that a combination therapy, potentially with tumor treating fields, or is that, maybe non-CNS solid tumors?

Mike Andriole (President and CEO)

Thanks, Ben, for the question. Josh, would you like to comment?

Josh Allen (CTO)

Sure. Thanks for the question. I mean, I think the short answer to the question is prioritization is given to opportunities for monotherapy development. At least initially, the focus is on solid tumors that don't harbor the H3K27M mutation, and the opportunities are inclusive of, but not restricted to, CNS tumors. So I wouldn't pigeonhole this drug to the specific combination that you just mentioned there. I'll highlight there's in line with this, if you're looking for more specificity, right? There's several positive in vivo studies with monotherapy ONC206 in histologically defined indications that are published and summarized in our corporate deck. Those examples include GBM, medulloblastoma, uterine cancer, breast cancer, and certain kinds of neuroendocrine tumors, such as paraganglioma.

I mentioned in my prepared remarks some of the specific mechanistic considerations that we're using to guide some of these monotherapy activity potentials and how we identify and prioritize them. And really the goal of that is to further refine those opportunities for indications that are either defined by or enriched for specific biomarkers of ONC206 that we think could represent meaningful opportunities for clinical development.

Ben Paluch (VP and Senior Research Associate)

Great, thank you.

Operator (participant)

The last question comes from the line of Troy Langford from TD Cowen. Please go ahead.

Troy Langford (Biotechnology Equity Research VP)

Hi, congrats on all the progress, and thanks for taking our question. So just with respect to the next steps for ONC-206, do you believe any of these future studies to the program could constitute pivotal studies in the selected patient populations? Or do you think you will more likely do smaller single-arm Phase II studies first, followed by a larger controlled Phase III study, similar to what you did with dordaviprone?

Mike Andriole (President and CEO)

Troy, thanks for the question. I'll let Josh speak to that. I think in short, it may well depend on the direction of the program and the indication pursued. But Josh, would you like to comment further?

Josh Allen (CTO)

That's exactly right. Our goal in the near term is going to be to make sure that the drug is able to get into humans at adequate therapeutic concentrations for an adequate amount of time and be well tolerated. We think if we can achieve that and update everyone on this in the middle of the year, that that's gonna be sufficient to open up a lot of additional opportunities for further development. And we intend to take that decision via the totality of the program and the exact nature of that sort of registration opportunity. Like Mike said, the trial design, what the exact next steps are and the exact endpoints are very much something that we're thinking about right now and are tailored to the specific opportunity.

But obviously, we're gonna be focused on identifying clear monotherapy signals and the most efficient path to approval possible for that disease if we see confirmation of that activity.

Troy Langford (Biotechnology Equity Research VP)

Great. Thanks for all that color.

Operator (participant)

As there are no further questions at the queue this time, I would like to turn the call over back to Mike Andriole.

Mike Andriole (President and CEO)

Thanks, John. Thank you everyone for your time this morning, and we look forward to updating you in the coming months.

Operator (participant)

This concludes today's conference call. Thank you for your participation. You may now disconnect.
