Filament Health Refiles Q2 Financial Results
LOS ANGELES– Filament Health Corp. has refiled its second-quarter financial results for the period ending June 30, 2023, following an initial filing on May 12, 2023. The revision was necessitated by changes in the accounting treatment related to the acquisition of a joint venture previously included in the original interim consolidated financial statements.
Jupiter SPAC Developments
In tandem with Filament’s earnings refile, Jupiter Acquisition Corporation (NASDAQ: JAQC), the special purpose acquisition company (SPAC) set to merge with Filament, submitted a registration statement by 1427702 B.C. Ltd., also known as TopCo. This move is in line with the July 2023 announcement regarding the anticipated Business Combination.
This registration sheds light on various facets, including TopCo’s proposed business, Filament’s drug development and research programs, intellectual property, manufacturing capabilities, and the proposed Business Combination. It also outlines the considerations for SPAC’s shareholders.
Notably, the deadline for Jupiter’s business combination has been extended from August 17, 2023, to December 17, 2023. As per the recent filing, Jupiter redeemed over 14 million shares of Class A common stock on April 20, 2023, amounting to $145 million. As of June 30, 2023, the SPAC reported $428,266 in its operating bank account and a working capital deficit of $1,309,272.
Filament Health’s Financial Position
In May, Jupiter unveiled its Q2 financial results, highlighting cash and cash equivalents of roughly $1.2 million as of June 30, 2023. This figure does not account for the $2.5 million private placement finalized by Filament in July 2023. By the close of Q1, the company had cash reserves of $2.4 million. Filament emphasized the material significance of the refiled earnings.
Benjamin Lightburn, CEO and Co-Founder of Filament Health, expressed his satisfaction with the company’s performance, stating, “The Filament team has achieved a number of industry-first milestones and continued to grow our revenue-generating supply network.” He further highlighted the company’s plans to list on the Nasdaq through a business combination with Jupiter Acquisition Corporation, aiming to expedite their botanical psychedelic drug development platform.
The developments underscore Filament Health’s strategic moves in the industry and its commitment to ensuring the accessibility of standardized natural psychedelics to those in need.
