Previous Earnings date Reports
| Date | Event | Sentiment | Move | Catalyst |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Nov 18 | Earnings date notice | Neutral | -2.2% | Scheduled fiscal 2025 Q4 and year-end results with webcast and Q&A details. |
The prior earnings-date announcement in November 2025 was followed by a modest negative 2.23% move, suggesting these scheduling updates have not historically driven sustained upside.
This announcement sets the timetable for fiscal 2026 Q1 results and a conference call, echoing the prior earnings-date release on November 18, 2025, which outlined fiscal 2025 year-end reporting plans and an 8:30 am ET webcast. Since then, AVXL has reported a CHMP negative opinion in Europe and pursued re-examination, while securing FDA engagement and joining the ACCESS-AD initiative. Against that backdrop, the current notice mainly signals the next formal update on financials and corporate progress.
Historical Comparison
In the past 12 months, AVXL issued 1 prior earnings-date notice with an average move of 2.23%. Today’s update arrives as shares trade 67.69% below the 52-week high, underscoring a weaker backdrop into this earnings cycle.
The company continues its pattern of pre-announcing earnings dates with webcast and dial-in details, providing a recurring cadence for updates on financials and recent corporate milestones.
Regulatory & Risk Context
An active S-3 shelf dated 2025-07-14 remains in place, with expiration on 2028-07-14. It is not yet effective and shows 1 recorded 424B5 usage event, indicating the company has established but only partially utilized a registered capital-raising framework.
Market Pulse Summary
This announcement sets the date and access details for Anavex’s fiscal 2026 Q1 results on February 9, 2026, including an 8:30 am ET conference call and webcast with a 30-day replay. It follows a consistent pattern of pre-announcing earnings calls, giving investors a clear point for updates on financials and recent clinical and regulatory developments. Given the stock’s position well below its 52-week high, many will watch this call for clarity on progress and capital plans, including any use of its existing shelf registration.

About Anavex Life Sciences Corp.
Anavex Life Sciences Corp. (Nasdaq: AVXL) is a publicly traded biopharmaceutical company dedicated to the development of novel therapeutics for the treatment of neurodegenerative, neurodevelopmental, and neuropsychiatric disorders, including Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, schizophrenia, Rett syndrome, and other central nervous system (CNS) diseases, pain, and various types of cancer. Anavex's lead drug candidate, ANAVEX®2-73 (blarcamesine), has successfully completed a Phase 2a and a Phase 2b/3 clinical trial for Alzheimer's disease, a Phase 2 proof-of-concept study in Parkinson's disease dementia, and both a Phase 2 and a Phase 3 study in adult patients and one Phase 2/3 study in pediatric patients with Rett syndrome. ANAVEX®2-73 is an orally available drug candidate designed to restore cellular homeostasis by targeting SIGMAR1 and muscarinic receptors. Preclinical studies demonstrated its potential to halt and/or reverse the course of Alzheimer's disease. ANAVEX®2-73 also exhibited anticonvulsant, anti-amnesic, neuroprotective, and anti-depressant properties in animal models, indicating its potential to treat additional CNS disorders, including epilepsy. The Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson's Research previously awarded Anavex a research grant, which fully funded a preclinical study to develop ANAVEX®2-73 for the treatment of Parkinson's disease. We believe that ANAVEX®3-71, which targets SIGMAR1 and M1 muscarinic receptors, is a promising clinical stage drug candidate demonstrating disease-modifying activity against the major hallmarks of Alzheimer's disease in transgenic (3xTg-AD) mice, including cognitive deficits, amyloid, and tau pathologies. In preclinical trials, ANAVEX®3-71 has shown beneficial effects on mitochondrial dysfunction and neuroinflammation. Further information is available at www.anavex.com.
