Gemini Therapeutics Reports 2021 Financial Results

Gemini Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ:GMTX) today reported financial results for the year ended December 31, 2021.

"As previously announced this year, Gemini Therapeutics has initiated a process to evaluate strategic options to maximize shareholder value that may potentially result in changes to our business strategy. While we have not set a timetable for completion of this strategic review process, we look forward to providing an update in the future if and when appropriate," said Georges Gemayel, Ph.D. Executive Chair and interim President and Chief Executive Officer.

Full Year 2021 Financial Results

Gemini reported a net loss of $71.9 million for the full year 2021 compared to $40.8 million for the same period in 2020. Research and development expenses were $48.7 million and $28.2 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The full year increase was primarily due to an increase in external research and development costs related to clinical trial activities of GEM103.

General and administrative expenses were $20.3 million and $5.9 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The full year increase was primarily due to higher personnel-related costs and higher legal, insurance and other professional fees incurred in connection with operating as a public company.

As of December 31, 2021, cash and cash equivalents totaled $136.6 million, with approximately 43.2 million shares of common stock outstanding.
