Scinai Reports Nine-Month 2025 Results as CDMO Growth Continues and NanoAbs Pipeline Advances

Rhea-AI Summary

Scinai (NASDAQ: SCNI) reported nine-month 2025 results and corporate updates. Revenues were $1,049k vs $452k a year earlier, driven by CDMO expansion including $502k from its U.S. subsidiary.

Insights

Life Sciences Strategist

CDMO revenue traction and grant funding progress offset by a nine-month net loss; key funding and grant milestones due Q1–Q2 2026.

Scinai grew CDMO revenues to $1,049,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, including $502,000 from its U.S. subsidiary, showing early commercial traction for Scinai Bioservices. R&D spend fell to $1,799,000 while MG&A rose modestly to $1,929,000. The company recorded a net loss of $6,244,000, driven largely by the absence of the one-time financial income from loan conversion that produced a net profit in the prior-year period.

The operational case rests on two pillars: scaling a boutique CDMO service that targets small-batch, flexible sterile fill-and-finish work and advancing a focused NanoAb pipeline anchored by IL-17 programs. The IIA grant for the fill-and-finish system reduces capital burden and targets Q1 2026 installation with commercial operation in Q2 2026. Pipeline progress depends on two major external binary events: EU STEP grant decisions expected in Q1 2026 for two separate €15 million applications and Scinai\'s exclusive licensing decision for the Max Planck/UMG-derived assets by Q1 2026.

Key risks include limited cash resources of $3,005,000 as of September 30, 2025, the failed €12 million FENG grant for PC111 (notice dated November 24, 2025), and the conditional $3,000,000 earmark required to exercise the option to acquire Pincell before February 28, 2026. Watch the Q1 2026 outcomes for the two STEP grants, the decision on exercising the Pincell SPA option, and commissioning of the sterile fill-and-finish system in Q2 2026 for signals about near-term financing needs and commercial capacity.

JERUSALEM, Dec. 2, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Scinai Immunotherapeutics Ltd. (Nasdaq: SCNI) ("Scinai", or the "Company"), a biopharmaceutical company developing innovative inflammation and immunology (I&I) therapeutics and operating a growing boutique CDMO business unit, today reported its financial results and corporate highlights for the nine months ended September 30, 2025.

First Nine Months 2025 Financial Summary

• Revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 were $1,049 thousand, compared to $452 thousand for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The increase reflects continued expansion of Scinai Bioservices, including contributions from the Company's U.S. subsidiary.
• R&D expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 amounted to $1,799 thousand, compared to $4,195 thousand for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The decrease was primarily due to lower allocation of employees and facility costs to the R&D business unit.
• Marketing, general and administrative expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 were $1,929 thousand, compared to $1,767 thousand for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The increase was mainly due to insurance reimbursement recorded in 2024.
• Financial Expenses, net, for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, were $607 thousand compared to financial income of $13,374 thousand for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The change was primarily driven by the financial income from loan conversion recorded in 2024.

Business Update

CDMO Business - Scinai Bioservices

Scinai Bioservices continues to expand its role as a boutique CDMO serving early-stage biotech companies in Israel, the United States, and Europe.

• The Company's U.S. subsidiary contributed $502 thousand in revenues during the first nine months of 2025, demonstrating early traction in North America.
• Scinai recently received a non-dilutive grant of approximately NIS 809,000 net (approximately $246,000) from the Israel Innovation Authority to fund two-thirds of a NIS 1.23 million (approximately $373,000) investment in an advanced sterile fill-and-finish system.
• The new system is designed to provide rapid batch turnaround and flexible switching between campaigns, substantially improving small-batch manufacturing capacity for early-stage biotech clients.
• Installation and qualification are expected in Q1 2026, with commercial operation planned in Q2 2026.

The IIA noted in its award letter that the lack of local, flexible GMP manufacturing infrastructure is a major bottleneck for Israel's 300+ biopharma companies and recognized Scinai's growing role in addressing this national and global gap.

R&D Business - NanoAbs and PC111 Programs

NanoAbs Pipeline — Focused on High-Value IL-17 Programs and Strategic Partnering

Scinai is advancing a focused NanoAb pipeline in inflammation and immunology, supported by two STEP grant applications of up to €15 million each, with funding decisions expected in Q1 2026. The Company is actively seeking partners for co-development or licensing across all programs.

SCN-1 (Lead Program): Intradermal IL-17A/F NanoAb for Mild–Moderate Psoriasis

Approaching Phase 1/2a, a decision on the Company's application for a €15 million grant under the EU STEP program is expected Q1 2026

• First localized biologic designed specifically for mild–moderate psoriasis.
• Potent IL-17A/F neutralizing VHH delivered intradermally in a painless manner via mesogun, enabling targeted treatment with minimal systemic exposure.
• Establishes a new category between topicals and systemic biologics.
• Clear value for patients, physicians, payers, and commercial partners.
• Supported by translational data and progressing toward Phase 1/2a entry.

Bispecific IL-17A/F + Second Target (VHH-Fc): Long-Acting Systemic Biologic

For psoriasis, PsA, HS, and broader I&I, a decision on the Company's application for a €15 million grant under the EU STEP program is expected Q1 2026. This grant application is separate and in addition to the one related to SCN-1 mentioned above.

• Dual-target VHH-Fc architecture provides enhanced biologic activity and extended half-life.
• Applicable across multiple high-value I&I indications.
• Designed for systemic administration with differentiated mechanism and dosing profile.

Third Program: Four New NanoAbs from Max Planck / UMG Collaboration

Patent filings in 2025, Exclusive licensing option expected to be exercised by Q1 2026

• Four novel NanoAbs generated under Scinai's research collaboration with MPG and UMG.
• Patent applications filed in 2025.
• Scinai plans to exercise its exclusive licensing option by Q1 2026.
• Expands the pipeline into additional high-need I&I pathways.

PC111 - Strategic Assessment Following Grant Outcome

On November 24, 2025, Scinai received formal notice from the Polish grant authorities that its €12 million FENG grant application supporting development of PC111 was not approved. As a result, Scinai and its development partner, Pincell Srl, are currently reviewing the program's forward path and evaluating several alternatives. These include, among other options, submitting a new non-dilutive grant application in early 2026 or potentially terminating Scinai's option to acquire Pincell if a viable financing path cannot be secured.

Scinai currently holds an exclusive option to exercise the Share Purchase Agreement (SPA) for 100% of Pincell's fully diluted share capital through February 28, 2026, with no additional purchase price required at exercise. The exercise of this option is conditional upon Scinai demonstrating at least $3 million specifically earmarked for PC111's development. The Company will update the market once its joint assessment with Pincell is complete and a defined strategic path has been selected.

Partnering Outlook

Scinai is currently engaged in outreach for co-development, global or regional licensing, or broader platform partnerships across all pipeline programs.

CEO Statement

"2025 has been a year of significant progress across our CDMO and R&D business units," said Amir Reichman, CEO of Scinai. "Our CDMO operations continue to build momentum and strengthen their position as a trusted partner for emerging biotech companies. On the R&D side, while the recent grant outcome for PC111 was not what we had hoped for, the underlying science remains strong. Together with our partners at Pincell, we are now evaluating the best strategic path forward for the program, including potential non-dilutive funding routes or alternative options. At the same time, our NanoAbs pipeline continues to advance with promising differentiation and clear partnering opportunities. With growing operational capabilities and a disciplined approach to resource allocation, we remain committed to creating long-term value for patients and shareholders."
