Longeveron Announces 2026 Third Quarter Financial Results and Provides Business Update

Sentiment and the balance of points

Rhea-AI Sentiment reads the wording of the document, how positive or negative its language is on a 1 to 5 scale. The balance of points shown with the takes weighs what the document actually discloses, so the two can disagree, for example when a trial that missed its main goal is described in upbeat language.

Longeveron (NASDAQ: LGVN) reported a narrower third-quarter net loss while reviewing strategic alternatives after its ELPIS II trial missed its primary endpoint. Net loss was $6.135 million, or $1.91 per share, versus $7.221 million, or $3.93 per share, a year earlier. Revenue fell to $115,000 from $137,000.

The 40-infant trial missed its primary measure of heart pumping function at Month 12. A secondary analysis found 8 major adverse cardiac events with standard care versus 1 with laromestrocel (P=0.043). Longeveron requested an FDA meeting to determine potential next steps. It retained Lucid Capital Markets to explore alternatives, including a potential business combination, and implemented cash conservation measures. Cash was $7.245 million at September 30; the company expects funding into the first quarter of 2027. A 1-for-10 reverse split of Class A and Class B common stock took effect August 26, 2026.

How this balance works

Rhea-AI gives every point it takes from this document a weight. Minor counts 1, Moderate 3 and Major 9, so one Major point outweighs several Minor ones. The bar adds up the weights on each side, and when neither side holds more than 65% of the total the balance reads Mixed.

It reads the document as published, with the same rules for every company, and it does not look at what the market expected or at how the stock traded, so a point can be objectively good on a day the stock falls.

Rhea-AI Sentiment measures something else, the tone of the wording.

News Explained

No strategic transaction is committed; the September balance sheet shows more Class A shares and convertible preferred shares, with conversion effects unspecified.

Longeveron is evaluating strategic and financing options, including investment, additional financing, sale, merger or a business combination, with no definitive timeline and no assurance of a transaction; no related funding or ownership change is committed in this release.

As of September 30, 2026, the balance sheet lists 11,211.52 Series A non-voting convertible preferred shares outstanding, versus none at December 31, 2025, and 3,113,450 Class A common shares outstanding, versus 2,144,534.

The higher Class A count means an unchanged Class A holding represents a smaller fraction of that class; the release gives no conversion terms for the preferred shares, so their effect on common ownership cannot be assessed.

Key Terms

rvef, mace, rmat
3 terms
rvef medical
"change from baseline in right ventricular ejection fraction (RVEF) at Month 12"
Right ventricular ejection fraction (RVEF) is the percentage of blood the heart’s right ventricle pumps out with each contraction; it quantifies right ventricular systolic function. Clinicians measure RVEF using imaging tests such as echocardiography, cardiac MRI, or nuclear scans, and the result depends on the imaging method and the patient’s volume and pressure conditions, so values are not directly interchangeable between techniques.
mace medical
"major adverse cardiac events (MACE) showed statistical significance"
MACE stands for Major Adverse Cardiovascular Events — a composite medical endpoint that counts serious heart-related outcomes such as heart attack, stroke and cardiovascular death. Investors use MACE as a single safety and efficacy yardstick for drugs or devices aimed at the heart or blood vessels; like a vehicle crash-test score, a lower MACE rate signals fewer serious harms and can strongly influence regulatory approval, market adoption and commercial value.
rmat regulatory
"Regenerative Medicine Advanced Therapy (RMAT) designation"
A Regenerative Medicine Advanced Therapy (RMAT) designation is a regulatory fast-track status for cell, gene or tissue-based therapies that show promise for treating serious conditions. It acts like an express lane with extra support from regulators—potentially shortening review time and enabling earlier approval paths—which can reduce development risk and speed a therapy toward the market, making it a material value signal for investors in biotech stocks.

  • Following reporting of results for the ELPIS II Phase 2b clinical trial, the Company has requested a meeting with the FDA to review the results to determine potential next steps for the HLHS development program
  • The Company has initiated a process to review all strategic options with a goal of maximizing stockholder value and has implemented cash conservation measures to optimize cost containment
  • Lucid Capital Markets retained as the Company’s financial advisor to explore potential strategic opportunities, including a potential business combination

MIAMI, Nov. 12, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Longeveron Inc. (NASDAQ: LGVN), a clinical stage biotechnology company developing cellular therapy for life-threatening, rare pediatric and chronic aging-related conditions, today reported financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2026 and provided a business update.

“With ELPIS II results now available, we have requested a meeting with the FDA to determine potential next steps for the HLHS development program,” said Stephen H. Willard, Chief Executive Officer of Longeveron. “At the same time, we continue to review potential strategic alternatives for the Company as we explore all opportunities to maximize value for our stockholders.”

Evaluation of Strategic and Financing Alternatives
The Company is evaluating a range of strategic and financing alternatives with a goal of maximizing stockholder value. These alternatives may include, among others, a strategic partnership or investment, additional financing, a sale or merger of the Company, or a business combination. The Company has retained Lucid Capital Markets, LLC as the Company’s financial advisor for this process.

The Company has not set a definitive timeline for completion of this process and does not intend to disclose further developments unless and until it is determined that further disclosure is appropriate or required by law. There can be no assurance that this process will result in any transaction or other strategic outcome, or that such transaction or outcome will be completed on favorable terms.

Development Programs
Longeveron’s investigational therapeutic candidate laromestrocel (Lomecel-B®) is a proprietary, scalable, allogeneic cellular therapy.

Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome (HLHS) – a rare pediatric congenital heart birth defect in which the left ventricle (one of the pumping chambers of the heart) is either severely underdeveloped or missing.

  • In September and October, the Company announced topline and updated, respectively, results from ELPIS II, its Phase 2b clinical trial evaluating its laromestrocel as an adjunct to Stage 2 palliative surgery in 40 infants with hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS). The ELPIS II trial did not meet the primary efficacy endpoint of change from baseline in right ventricular ejection fraction (RVEF) at Month 12. Based on the pre-specified secondary endpoints, laromestrocel was associated with fewer adjudicated clinical and safety events than the standard of care (SOC) arm. Additional review of the pre-specified secondary endpoint major adverse cardiac events (MACE) showed statistical significance with 8 events in the SOC arm versus 1 in the laromestrocel treatment arm (P=0.043).
  • The Company has requested a meeting with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to review the results to determine potential next steps for the HLHS development program.
  • The FDA has granted laromestrocel Orphan Drug designation, Fast Track designation, and Rare Pediatric Disease designation for the treatment of HLHS.

Pediatric Dilated Cardiomyopathy (PDCM) – a rare pediatric cardiovascular disease in which the muscles in one or more of the heart chambers become enlarged or stretched (dilated), with nearly 40% of children with PDCM requiring a heart transplant or dying within two years of diagnosis.

  • Longeveron’s Investigational New Drug (IND) application for its stem cell therapy laromestrocel as a potential treatment for PDCM became effective in July 2025. This IND provides for moving directly to a single Phase 2 registrational clinical trial.

Alzheimer’s disease (AD) – a neurodegenerative disorder that leads to progressive memory loss and death and currently has very limited therapeutic options.

  • The Company is seeking to forge strategic collaborations and/or partnerships for the advancement of laromestrocel in addressing AD.
  • The FDA has granted laromestrocel both Regenerative Medicine Advanced Therapy (RMAT) designation and Fast Track designation for the treatment of mild Alzheimer’s disease.

Aging-related Frailty (AF) – a chronic condition driven by systemic physiologic decline, characterized by reduced reserve and resilience across multiple organ systems with common features including weakness, fatigue, weight loss, slowness and reduced activity. No FDA-approved therapies currently exist.

  • Laromestrocel data from its Phase 2b clinical trial in Aging-related Frailty were published in Cell Stem Cell in February 2026.
  • In August, the Company announced that it has been selected as a Finalist Team in the XPRIZE Healthspan global competition, a seven-year, $101 million global competition to identify therapeutic approaches to increase human healthspan. As a result, the Company was one of 10 finalist teams to receive a $1.0 million Milestone 2 Award to be used in accordance with the XPRIZE competition rules with the opportunity to compete for the XPRIZE Grand Prize of up to $81 million, subject to the successful completion of the required clinical trial and financing thereof.

Corporate Updates

  • In July, the Company announced that Deborah Ascheim, M.D., was elected to the Longeveron Board of Directors. Dr. Ascheim is a strategic biotech Chief Medical Officer and physician who has over 30 years of clinical and executive experience advancing breakthrough therapies, including gene, cell, and biologics, for rare, ultra-rare, and common diseases across multiple indications.
  • In August, the Company appointed Nirav Jhaveri, CFA, to the Company’s executive leadership team in the role of Chief Financial Officer (CFO), principal financial officer and principal accounting officer. Mr. Jhaveri has over 25 years of experience in capital markets, corporate finance, business development and investor relations, including more than 15 years in the biotech sector.
  • Effective August 26, 2026, at 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time, the Company implemented a 1-for-10 reverse split of the shares of its Class A common stock, par value $0.001 per share and Class B common stock, par value $0.001 per share (collectively, the “Common Stock”), whether issued and outstanding or held by the Company as treasury stock.
  • In September, the Company announced it had initiated a process to review all strategic options with the goal of maximizing stockholder value. In conjunction with this process, the Company has implemented cash conservation measures to optimize cost containment.
  • In October, the Company announced the retention of Lucid Capital Markets as the Company’s financial advisor to explore potential strategic opportunities.

2026 Third Quarter Summary Financial Results

  • Revenues, Cost of Revenues and Gross Profit: Revenues for each of the three-month periods ended September 30, 2026 and September 30, 2025 was $0.1 million. 2026 revenues decreased by $22,000, or 16%, when compared to the same period in 2025, primarily due to the absence of contract manufacturing revenue.

Clinical trial revenue, which is derived from The Bahamas Registry Trial, for each of the three-month periods ended September 30, 2026 and September 30, 2025 was $0.1 million. Contract manufacturing revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, were $0 and $43,000, respectively. This decrease of $43,000, or 100%, when compared to the same period in 2025, was driven by the absence of any additional contract manufacturing services from our third-party client.

Related cost of revenues were $44,000 and $12,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. This resulted in a gross profit of approximately $0.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2026, a decrease of $54,000, or 43%, when compared to 2025.

    • General and Administrative Expenses: General and administrative expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2026 were $3.3 million, compared to $3.6 million for the same period in 2025. The decrease of $0.3 million, or 8%, was primarily due to a $0.9 million decrease in personnel-related costs, partially offset by an increase in legal fees of $0.3 million and finance costs of $0.3 million.

    • Research and Development Expenses: Research and development expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2026 were $4.0 million, compared to $3.9 million for the same period in 2025. The increase of $0.1 million, or 3%, was due to higher ELPIS II clinical trial expenses of $0.7 million, partially offset by supplies and costs associated with technology transfer of $0.6 million recorded in 2025.

    • Other Income: Other income for the three months ended September 30, 2026 was $1.1 million, primarily consisting of $1.0 million received as a recipient of a Milestone 2 Award in the XPRIZE Healthspan competition and $0.1 million of interest earned on money market funds. Other income for the three months ended September 30, 2025, was $0.1 million, primarily consisting of interest earned on money market funds.

    • Net Loss: Net loss was $6.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2026, compared to $7.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025. The decrease of $1.1 million, or 15%, was due to the factors outlined above.

    • Cash and cash equivalents: As of September 30, 2026, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $7.2 million. The Company currently anticipates its existing cash and cash equivalents will enable it to fund its operating expenses and capital expenditure requirements into the first quarter of 2027, based on its current operating budget, cash flow forecast, as well as the ongoing implementation of cash conservation measures to optimize cost containment.

Conference Call
In light of the Company's ongoing review of strategic alternatives, the Company has determined not to hold a conference call to review its third quarter results at this time.
