"This quarter, we continued to steadily advance our programs with modest cash use," said CollPlant's Chief Executive Officer, Yehiel Tal. "We are advancing our regenerative breast implants program, and plan to initiate by the end of this year an animal study with commercial size implants.  With AbbVie, we continue to make progress with the dermal filler candidate, and, in addition, we were pleased to announce earlier this month that a U.S. patent was granted related to our photocurable dermal filler product candidate.  We plan to continue our momentum towards the completion of important upcoming milestones for which we are entitled to associated payments, that will support our continued robust cash position".
Third quarter and recent corporate highlights
Program developments and collaboration updates
Dermal and Soft Tissue Filler – At the end of the second quarter, CollPlant announced the achievement of a milestone with respect to the dermal and soft tissue filler product candidate, in accordance with its collaboration agreement with AbbVie. Per the agreement, the achievement of this milestone triggered a $10 million payment from AbbVie to CollPlant that was received in the third quarter.  CollPlant has the potential to receive additional milestone payments as well as future royalties in accordance with its long-term collaboration with AbbVie for the first-generation dermal filler.
Photocurable Dermal Filler - In November, CollPlant announced that the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office granted it a patent that covers CollPlant's photocurable dermal filler product candidate, being developed for the aesthetics market. U.S. Patent No. 11,801,329 is directed, among other things, to a method of filling tissue space under the epidermis by introducing a polymerizable filler solution into the tissue space and applying external light to induce in-situ polymerization. This issued patent in effect until 2039 provides CollPlant with intellectual property protection for a regenerative photocurable dermal filler that has contouring capabilities. CollPlant believes that this patent will strengthen its position in the market for many forthcoming years.
Breast Implants - CollPlant is planning to initiate the next large-animal study to evaluate commercial size, 3D bioprinted, regenerative breast implants by year-end.  In January of this year CollPlant announced positive results from its first large-animal study. This study demonstrated progressive stages of tissue regeneration after three months, as highlighted by the formation of maturing connective tissue and neovascular networks within the implants, with no adverse events reported.
In the U.S. alone, hundreds of thousands of people per year experience adverse events that range from autoimmune symptoms to the very serious breast implant-associated anaplastic large cell lymphoma (BIA-ALCL). CollPlant's breast implants, comprised of the Company's proprietary plant-derived rhCollagen and other biomaterials, are expected to regenerate breast tissue without eliciting immune response and therefore may provide a revolutionary alternative for aesthetic and reconstructive procedures, including postmastectomy for cancer patients.
Gut-on-a-Chip - CollPlant is developing a gut tissue model that will enable a predictive and personalized treatment for inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD). CollPlant mimics the gut structure by using high resolution 3D printing in combination with its unique rhCollagen-based bioink.  The first tissue model is to be used for evaluating therapeutic response in patients suffering from ulcerative colitis. Recently, the CollPlant team managed to successfully grow epithelial cells on the 3D printed scaffolds that mimic the gut tissue geometry. In November, CollPlant elected to terminate its collaboration agreement with Tel Aviv University and Sheba Medical Center and continues to develop this program on its own.
CollPlant remains engaged in partnering dialogs with several industry leaders and academic institutions interested in the Company's rhCollagen technology and expertise in 3D bioprinting, to develop therapeutics and medical applications.
Commercial portfolio of bioink solutions
CollPlant's bioink platform is intended to enable its customers to streamline the process of new product development while also accelerating timelines and reducing overall costs.
During the last year, CollPlant has released a third BioInk formulation to the market and continues to expand its BioInks portfolio. CollPlant's new bioinks enable the end user to address a wide range of 3D bioprinting applications, including drug discovery, drug screening and tissue testing, as well as the development of transplantable tissues and organs.
Operational updates
In line with CollPlant's mission to build a company that operates and works towards solutions that support a sustainable environment, CollPlant recruited a dedicated manager to analyze, formulate and execute upon the set of standards for its Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) program.  This initiative is designed to help CollPlant to meet the standards expected to be instituted by the Securities and Exchange Commission for all publicly listed companies in the U.S., as well as help socially conscious investors better understand CollPlant's alignment with sustainable values – both operationally and as a component of its overall company mission.
Related to this initiative, in September, CollPlant announced that its participation in the United Nations Global Compact, the world's largest initiative for sustainable and responsible corporate governance.  This alliance unites over 23,000 companies and 4,000 non-business signatories across over 166 countries and more than 62 Local Networks.  By joining this voluntary leadership platform, CollPlant strengthens its commitment to operate sustainably and also providing further support of its mission to provide sustainable alternatives to existing regenerative and aesthetics medicine products and technologies.

Use of Non-US GAAP ("non-GAAP")

GAAP results were prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and include all revenue and expenses recognized during the period. The release contains certain non-GAAP financial measures for operating costs and expenses, operating income (or loss), net income (or loss) and basic and diluted net income (or loss) per share that exclude the effects of non-cash expense for share-based compensation to employees, directors and consultants, and change in operating lease accounts. CollPlant's management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding the Company's performance that enhances management's and investors' ability to evaluate the Company's operating costs, net income (or loss) and income (or loss) per share, and to compare them to historical Company results.
The presentation of this non-GAAP financial information is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP.
