Sol-Gel expects its $45.7 million in cash resources to fund cash requirements into the first quarter of 2028.
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.
Rhea-AI Filing Summary
Sol-Gel Technologies Ltd. reported third-quarter 2026 results and updated the development of its lead candidate, SGT-610. In the Phase 3 Gorlin syndrome study, 102 of 113 patients completed the study, approximately 90%; the company said it reached last patient last visit in September and expects top-line results in late November. U.S. commercial-readiness activities are underway, subject to positive clinical results, and the company is evaluating additional patidegib studies and an injectable for odontogenic keratocysts.
Third-quarter revenue was $41,000, versus $400,000 a year earlier, while net loss was $5.622 million, versus $5.942 million; diluted loss per share was $1.72. Research and development expense was $5.122 million, compared with $5.731 million, primarily reflecting lower SGT-610 clinical-trial expenses. At September 30, 2026, cash resources totaled $45.7 million, which Sol-Gel expects to fund cash requirements into the first quarter of 2028.

NESS ZIONA, Israel, November 12, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) - Sol-Gel Technologies, Ltd. (NASDAQ: SLGL), a dermatology company,
pioneering treatments for patients with rare and severe skin conditions, today announced financial results for the third quarter ended
September 30, 2026, and provided a corporate update.
Q3 2026 and Recent Corporate Developments
| · | On September 17, 2026, Sol-Gel announced that the last patient had completed the last scheduled study visit in its pivotal Phase 3 clinical trial (SGT-610-01) of SGT-610 (patidegib gel, 2%) for the prevention of basal cell carcinoma (BCC) lesions in adult patients with Gorlin syndrome. Of the 113 patients enrolled in the randomized, double-blind, vehicle-controlled study, 102 completed the study, a completion rate of approximately 90%. The primary endpoint of the study is the number of new BCCs on the face at month 12 after twice-daily treatment. Secondary endpoints include the number of new surgically eligible BCCs (SEBs). Top-line results are expected in late November 2026. |
| · | On
October 14, 2026, Sol-Gel hosted a KOL Investor Event in New York featuring Ervin Epstein Jr., MD (Alta Bates Summit Medical Center),
Kavita Sarin, MD, PhD (Stanford Cancer Institute), Elizabeth M. Billingsley, MD (Penn State College of Medicine) and Julie Breneiser,
PA-C (Gorlin Syndrome Alliance). The event addressed the disease burden of Gorlin syndrome, the limitations of current surgical and off-label
systemic management, and the potential role of SGT-610 in preventing the development of new basal cell carcinomas (BCCs), with the goal
of reducing the need for repeated surgical interventions. A replay of the webcast and the presentation materials are available on the
Investor Relations section of the Company's website. |
| · | Sol-Gel
continues to advance its U.S. commercial readiness activities for SGT-610. If approved, the Company intends to retain full U.S. commercial
rights and to commercialize SGT-610 through a cost-effective model utilizing an experienced third-party commercialization services organization,
reaching the concentrated Gorlin syndrome treating population through a small, focused field organization supported by outsourced commercial
infrastructure. Market access, distribution, patient support and medical affairs planning are progressing in preparation for a potential
U.S. launch. |
Mr. Mori Arkin, Executive Chairman of Sol-Gel, stated: "The third quarter brought us to the threshold of the most important moment in Sol-Gel's history. Reaching last patient last visit in September marked the culmination of the patient treatment and follow-up phase of our pivotal Phase 3 trial of SGT-610, with 102 of 113 patients completing the study, representing a completion rate of approximately 90%, exceeding our original expectations for patient retention. That is a credit to the patients, investigators and site teams who stayed with us. We expect to report top-line results in late November. In parallel, we continue to advance our U.S. commercial readiness activities so that, subject to positive clinical results, we can move efficiently toward a regulatory submission and commercialization."
Mr. Arkin further commented: "We also continue to pursue the broader opportunities for hedgehog pathway inhibition that we outlined last quarter. The studies of topical patidegib as a neo-adjuvant ahead of Mohs surgery, and for the prevention of high-frequency BCC (HF-BCC) which we announced in August, respond to interest we hear directly from surgeons, and we continue to evaluate an intra-cystic injectable for odontogenic keratocysts, a manifestation of Gorlin syndrome that often requires repeated surgical interventions. Our immediate priority remains maximizing the commercial potential of Gorlin syndrome therapy, while these additional programs are intended to expand the therapeutic applications of hedgehog pathway inhibition."

Financial Results for the Third Quarter 2026
Revenue for the third quarter was nominal, compared to revenue of $0.4 million for the same period in 2025.
Research and development expenses were $5.1 million compared to $5.7 million for the same period in 2025. The decrease of $0.6 million was primarily attributed to a decrease in clinical trial expenses related to SGT-610.
General and administrative expenses were $1 million compared to $1 million for the same period in 2025.
Sol-Gel reported a net loss of $5.6 million for the third quarter of 2026 and loss of $1.7 per basic and diluted share, compared to a net loss of $5.9 million and loss of $2.1 per basic and diluted share for the same period in 2025.
As of September 30, 2026, Sol-Gel had $14.4 million in cash, cash equivalents, and deposits and $31.3 million in marketable securities for a total balance of $45.7 million. The Company expects its cash resources to fund cash requirements into the first quarter of 2028.
About Sol-Gel Technologies
Sol-Gel is a specialized dermatology company advancing innovative therapies for rare and serious
skin diseases. Its lead investigational candidate, SGT-610 (patidegib gel, 2%), is a Phase 3, orphan- and breakthrough-designated topical
hedgehog inhibitor being developed for the prevention of new basal cell carcinoma (BCC) lesions in patients with Gorlin syndrome, with
the potential to offer an improved safety profile relative to oral hedgehog inhibitors. Subject to regulatory approval in Gorlin syndrome,
SGT-610 may also represent a future opportunity in high-frequency BCC. Sol-Gel is also advancing SGT-210, an investigational topical EGFR
inhibitor for indications with significant unmet need, and has developed two FDA-approved dermatology products, TWYNEO® and EPSOLAY®.
