Current report
Based on the granting of the RMAT designation, we have scheduled a Type B, multi-disciplinary meeting with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in late November 2024 at which we plan to present the most recent clinical data and initiate discussions regarding the potential for an expedited development pathway for AMT-130. We will also discuss with the FDA a future communication plan that is expected to include additional sub-disciplinary meetings to take place in the first half of 2025.
Current report
We recorded a $1.2 million gain from the divestment. We paid a total of $8.3 million to Genezen and a third party related to adjustments of working capital and to obtain consent to proceed with the divestment.
Current report
In September 2024, we announced the FDA has granted Orphan Drug Designation to AMT-191 and in October 2024, the FDA granted Fast Track Designation to AMT-191.

Current report
We entered into the APA with Genezen on June 29, 2024 to divest our commercial manufacturing activities in return for the Consideration. The Lexington Transaction closed on July 22, 2024. Part of the Consideration received was a right, with an estimated fair market value of $16.7 million, to purchase HEMGENIX® from Genezen up to the termination of our supply agreement with CSL Behring at terms considered favorable to market terms. The determination of the fair market value required us to estimate the current and future commercial supply prices of HEMGENIX® to compare these to the contractually agreed terms. Prices for the commercial supply of HEMGENIX® are not readily observable in the market. Therefore, our estimate of the commercial supply price was based on what a market participant would be willing to pay in a comparable transaction, using industry benchmarks and relevant market data as reference points.
Current report
If the estimated commercial supply price used in the valuation had increased by 5% per drug product batch, then the fair market value of the intangible asset and the consideration received as well as the gain recorded on the divestment would have been increased by $3.0 million. If the estimated commercial supply price used in the valuation had been decreased by 5% per drug product batch, then the fair market value of the intangible asset and the consideration received on the divestment would have been decreased by $2.9 million. This would have resulted in a loss on divestment of $1.7 million instead of the $1.2 million gain presented.
Current report
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2024 were $11.6 million, compared to $18.1 million for the same period in 2023.

Lexington Transaction
Previous report
We entered into various agreements with Genezen on June 29, 2024 to divest our Lexington Facility in return for the Consideration. The Lexington Transaction closed on July 22, 2024. We determined that as of June 30, 2024 the requirements of Topic 360 to classify certain assets as assets held for sale within our consolidated Balance Sheet were met. Accordingly, we presented tangible assets with a carrying amount of $15.3 million, the right-of-use asset related to the Lexington Facility with a carrying amount of $11.9 million, goodwill with a carrying amount of $2.5 million, as well as inventory with a net realizable value of $8.0 million within “Assets held for sale” on our consolidated Balance Sheet. In addition, we presented $17.9 million of leasehold liabilities within “Liabilities held for sale”. If these criteria had not been met, then we would have continued to present these items respectively within “Property, plant and equipment, net of accumulated depreciation”, “Inventories, net”, “Operating lease right-of-use assets”, “Current portion of operating lease liabilities”, and “Operating lease liabilities, net of current portion” within the consolidated balance sheets.
Previous report
We determined that the closing conditions were contingent on several conditions that were not met as of June 30, 2024. Therefore, we did not account for the result of the divestment in the three- and six-month period ended June 30, 2024.

On June 3, 2024, we announced that the FDA granted Regenerative Medicine Advanced Therapy (“RMAT”) designation for AMT-130 for the treatment of Huntington’s disease. The FDA granted RMAT designation based on the potential of AMT-130 to address the major unmet medical need among patients with Huntington’s disease. The designation follows the FDA’s review of interim Phase I/II clinical data for AMT-130 announced in December 2023 and is based on an analysis comparing these 24-month clinical data to a non-concurrent criteria-matched natural history cohort.

On July 9, 2024, we announced updated interim clinical data including up to 24 months of follow-up data from 29 treated patients enrolled in the ongoing U.S. and European Phase I/II clinical trials of AMT-130 for the treatment of Huntington’s disease.

The data included a statistical analysis of clinical outcomes for the 21 treated patients at 24 months compared to an expanded, propensity-weighted external control (n=154) developed in collaboration with the Cure Huntington’s Disease Initiative (CHDI) using data from the TRACK-HD, TRACK-ON and PREDICT-HD natural history studies. The external control includes patients that met the Phase I/II clinical trial eligibility criteria, and whose data contributions were statistically weighted using propensity scoring to closely match the baseline characteristics of patients treated with AMT-130. Disease-related outcomes for these well-balanced cohorts were then compared after 24 months follow-up and are summarized below:

On July 23, 2024, we announced the closing of the sale of its Lexington Facility to Genezen and on August 1, 2024, we announced an organizational restructuring. These actions were the outcome of a recently completed, comprehensive review of our operations with the goals of conserving capital and streamlining the organization. As part of these changes, we expect to eliminate approximately 300 positions or 65% of our workforce. We estimate that we will incur costs in the range of $6.5 million to $7.5 million in connection with the restructuring, consisting primarily of cash expenditures related to employee severance costs. These costs are subject to assumptions, including local law requirements, and actual expenses may differ materially from the estimates discussed above. The restructuring is subject to the review by our Amsterdam-based works council, which is expected to be completed in the third quarter of 2024. We expect the restructuring to be substantially completed by the end of 2024.

AMT-162 is our gene therapy candidate for a one-time, intrathecally administered investigational gene therapy for ALS caused by mutations in superoxide dismutase 1 (“SOD1”), a rapidly progressing, rare motor neuron disease that leads to loss of everyday functions and is uniformly fatal. Mutations in the SOD1 gene of ALS account for approximately one-fifth of all inherited forms of this fatal disease. AMT-162 is comprised of a recombinant AAVrh10 vector that expresses a miRNA designed to knock down the expression of SOD1 with the goal of slowing down or potentially reversing the progression of ALS in patients with SOD1 mutations. The FDA has cleared the IND application for AMT-162 and has granted Orphan Drug and Fast Track designation.

In preparing our consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP and pursuant to the rules and regulations promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) we make assumptions, judgments and estimates that can have a significant impact on our net loss and affect the reported amounts of certain assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses, and related disclosures. We base our assumptions, judgments and estimates on historical experience and various other factors that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not clear from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. In making estimates and judgments, management employs critical accounting policies. A summary of our critical accounting policies as well as a discussion of our critical accounting estimates are presented in our Annual Report.
