HERZLIYA, Israel and CALGARY, AB, May 28, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Innocan Pharma Corporation (CSE: INNO) (FSE: IP4) (OTC: INNPF) (the "Company" or "Innocan"), a pharmaceutical technology company focusing on developing innovative drug delivery platform technologies is pleased to announce its financial consolidated results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2025, and provides a corporate update on its recent activities and upcoming milestones.

Key Business Highlights

• US $1 million raised through Private Placement - on March 7, 2025, the Company completed a non-brokered private placement of a debenture unit (the "Debenture Unit") to its largest shareholder, Tamar Innovest Ltd., raising US $1 million.

First Quarter 2025 Financial Highlights

• Revenues increased 15% in the first quarter of 2025 to US$7.8 million, compared to US$6.8 million in the first quarter of 2024. This increase in revenue was due to the robust sales performance of Innocan's subsidiary, BI Sky Global Ltd.
  
  
• Gross Profit increased 19% in the first quarter of 2025 to US$7.1 million, compared to US$6.0 million in the first quarter of 2024.
  
  
• Operating loss decreased by 140% to operating profit of US$0.5 million in the first quarter of 2025, compared to operating loss of US$1.2 million in the first quarter of 2024.

Corporate Highlights and Business Update

• Broaden Intellectual Property Coverage for Liposomal CBD Injection Across Asia.
  
  The Company reported advancing its efforts to strengthen the protection of its intellectual property across additional Asian markets, following the recently granted patent in India for a prolonged-release pharmaceutical formulation using liposomes to encapsulate CBD. The liposomal drug delivery platform allows for prolonged exposure and maximizes the bioavailability and therapeutic effects of CBD.
  
  Innocan's synthetic CBD-loaded Liposome Injection Platform (LPT-CBD) received positive feedback from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) following a successful pre-IND meeting to advance its development as a non-opioid alternative for chronic pain management. The Indian patent, granted in a pharmaceutical market estimated at US $55 billion (Bain & Company) complements Innocan's global patent applications, strengthening the proprietary value of its novel liposome-based cannabinoid technology.
  
  In addition, Innocan reported the filing of this divisional application for its LPT-CBD technology in China which management believes reflects the expertise and commitment of Innocan's team and represents a strategic step in aligning the Company's intellectual property portfolio with its long-term global business objectives. This application aims to protect LPT-CBD.
  
  
• The FDA's Center for Veterinary Medicine (CVM) has granted Innocan a sponsor fee waiver for its LPT-CBD product for the second consecutive year. Following a thorough review, the CVM granted Innocan the 2025 fee waiver, recognizing the Company's continued pursuit of innovative animal drug products and technology. The waiver applies to the Company's LPT-CBD drug product, developed for subcutaneous injection to manage chronic pain in dogs. With growing interest in CBD products among pet owners seeking safe and effective ways to support their pets' health, Innocan's LPT-CBD aims to deliver precise and sustained CBD release from a single injection. This innovation offers a safe and convenient dosing solution for managing chronic pain in dogs, providing benefits for pets of all ages and sizes.
