The company’s decision to undergo a 20-for-1 reverse stock split on December 13 is part of its broader strategy to attract institutional investors and align with Nasdaq’s standards before the close of 2023.
To execute this transition, Altamira Therapeutics sold a 51% stake in its subsidiary, Altamira Medica AG, generating approximately $2.3 million. The deal also holds the potential for future income and value appreciation, further enhancing the company’s financial outlook.
Altamira Medica AG, retaining the drug-free nasal spray Bentrio for allergic rhinitis, is poised for significant sales growth, particularly after 2024. The company foresees expansion into multiple countries and has secured a partnership with Nuance Pharma for the marketing of Bentrio in Mainland China and South Korea. This strategic collaboration is anticipated to yield substantial milestones and royalties for Altamira Medica. Ongoing discussions for Bentrio’s distribution in the United States, Europe, and other international markets are also in progress.
Meanwhile, Altamira Therapeutics is actively pursuing partnerships for its legacy assets in inner ear therapeutics. Of note is AM-125, a nasal spray designed for acute vestibular syndrome, which has shown promise in Phase 2 trials. Successful collaborations in these therapeutic areas are expected to have a positive impact on the company’s financial standing.
The stock market responded to these developments with a decrease in Altamira Therapeutics Ltd’s stock value on Monday morning. Investors are closely monitoring the company’s strategic moves, recognizing the potential for future growth and the establishment of solid partnerships in the pharmaceutical landscape. Altamira’s focus on RNA delivery and its commitment to meeting Nasdaq’s standards demonstrate a proactive approach to navigating the dynamic pharmaceutical industry and positioning itself for success in the coming years.
