Financial Update

As of September 30, 2020, Ampio had $9.4 million of cash and cash equivalents, as compared to cash and cash equivalents of $6.5 million as of December 31, 2019.

For the third quarter of 2020, research and development costs were $1.7 million, down 52% from $3.4 million for the same period in 2019. This decrease was primarily attributable to a decrease in clinical trial and sponsored research costs. Ampio expects clinical trial and sponsored research costs to increase during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020 due to the AP-014 inhaled Ampion study.

Operations / manufacturing expenses increased $190,000 in the current quarter, when compared to the same period in 2019.

General and administrative costs decreased $98,000, or 5.6%, from $1.7 million for the same period in 2019.

Ampio reported a net loss for the third quarter of $3.4 million compared to a net loss of $7.2 million for the same period in 2019.
