Financial Highlights:

As of June 30, 2024, Titan had cash of $3.9 million, compared to $7.5 million as at December 31, 2023. Working capital was $3.3 million as of June 30, 2024, compared to $5.5 million as at December 31, 2023.

Research and development (“R&D”) expenses were nil for the three months ended June 30, 2024 compared to $0.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023. R&D expenses were recovery of $0.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to $0.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023.

In the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company implemented cost-cutting measures that significantly reduced R&D expenses. In the six months ended June 30, 2024, R&D expense recovery of $0.1 million is attributed to cancellation of stock options and restricted share units related to R&D personnel.

General and administrative (“G&A”) expenses were $1.1 million and $2.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to $4.3 million and $6.6 million for the comparative periods ended June 30, 2023. The decrease in G&A expenses in the current period is related to the cost-cutting measures implemented in Q2, 2023. In 2023, G&A expenses included severance charges of $1.4M, transaction costs of $1.5M, and increased stock-based compensation, offset by reduction in costs due to cost-cutting measures.

These forward-looking statements reflect management’s current beliefs with respect to future events, and are based on information currently available to management that, while considered reasonable by management as of the date on which the statements are made, are inherently subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies which could result in actions, events, conditions, results, performance or achievements to be materially different from those projected in the forward-looking statements.
