Coronado Biosciences Reports Financial Results for the Third Quarter Ended September 30, 2012

Burlington, MA – November 14, 2012 – Coronado Biosciences, Inc. (NASDAQ: CNDO), a biopharmaceutical company focused on the development of novel immunotherapy biologic agents for the treatment of autoimmune diseases and cancer, announced today its financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2012.

Coronado reported net losses of $5.9 million and $18.9 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, respectively, compared to net losses of $3.4 million and $29.6 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, respectively. Included in the net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 was a charge of $20.7 million for in-process research and development expense related to the acquisition of TSO (Trichuris suis ova or CNDO-201).

Research and development expenses were $3.8 million and $12.9 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, respectively, compared to $1.8 million and $5.1 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, respectively. The increases in research and development expenses relate primarily to increased clinical activities in the TSO development program.

General and administrative expenses totaled $2.1 million and $6.0 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, respectively, compared to $1.8 million and $4.0 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, respectively. The increases in general and administrative expenses included expenses primarily related to the company’s infrastructure growth and increased business activity. At September 30, 2012, Coronado’s cash totaled $47.5 million.

“During this quarter we initiated TRUST-I, a phase 2 clinical trial of TSO for Crohn’s disease in the U.S., which we expect to complete in the second half of 2013. Our development partner, Dr. Falk Pharma, expects its phase 2 TRUST-II clinical trial of TSO for Crohn’s disease will have an additional interim analysis in mid-2013. Additionally, we are on schedule to start screening patients for the phase 1/2 trial of CNDO-109 in acute myeloid leukemia before the end of this year,” said Dr. Bobby W. Sandage, Jr., Coronado’s President and CEO. “Importantly, we also secured a $15 million loan from Hercules Technology Growth Capital to help support the development of TSO and CNDO-109, our two novel biologic product candidates. This capital strengthens our balance sheet and provides sufficient cash to fund operations into the first quarter of 2014.”
