WAYNE, Pa., Nov. 19, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Egalet Corporation (Nasdaq: EGLT) ("Egalet"), a fully integrated specialty pharmaceutical company focused on developing, manufacturing and marketing innovative treatments for pain, today reported financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2018 including results from commercial products: SPRIX® (ketorolac tromethamine) Nasal Spray and OXAYDO® (oxycodone HCI, USP) tablets for oral use only –CII.
"In the third quarter, we grew our commercial products and had the highest revenue for any quarter since we acquired SPRIX and licensed OXAYDO in January 2015," said Bob Radie, president and chief executive officer of Egalet. "For the remainder of the year, we are focused on continuing to grow SPRIX and OXAYDO revenues and working toward the anticipated first quarter 2019 closing of our previously-announced acquisition and financial restructuring."
2018 Third Quarter Financial Results
- Cash Position: As of September 30, 2018, Egalet had cash, marketable securities and restricted cash totaling $50.6 million.
- Net Product Sales: There were net product sales of $8.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018 compared to $6.7 million for the same period in 2017. Net product sales for the three months ended September 30, 2018 consisted of $6.1 million for SPRIX Nasal Spray, $1.9 million for OXAYDO and $174,000 for ARYMO ER. Net product sales for the three months ended September 30, 2017 consisted of $5.0 million for SPRIX Nasal Spray, $1.4 million for OXAYDO and $208,000 for ARYMO ER. Due to the adoption of ASC 606 on January 1, 2018, net product sales for the three months ended September 30, 2017 reflected prescriptions dispensed to patients and net product sales for the three months ended September 30, 2018 reflected shipments to customers.
- Cost of Sales (excluding product rights amortization): Cost of sales was $1.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018 and $1.2 million for the same period in 2017. Cost of sales for SPRIX Nasal Spray, OXAYDO and ARYMO ER for the three months ended September 30, 2018 reflects the average cost of inventory shipped to wholesalers and specialty pharmaceutical companies during the period. Cost of sales for SPRIX Nasal Spray and OXAYDO for the three months ended September 30, 2017 reflects the average cost of inventory produced and dispensed to patients in the period. Cost of sales for ARYMO ER for the three months ended September 30, 2017 includes the portion of inventory produced after the FDA approval of ARYMO ER in January 2017. The portion of inventory produced before the FDA approval of ARYMO ER was recorded in research and development expense in prior periods.
- G&A Expenses: General and administrative expenses were $5.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018 compared to $6.8 million for the same period in 2017. The decrease in the period was due to a decrease in post-marketing study fees and salary expense as well as decreases in administrative and consultant fees incurred in the three months ended September 30, 2018.
- S&M Expenses: Sales and marketing expenses were $7.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018 compared to $8.8 million for the same period in 2017.
- R&D Expenses: Research and development expenses were $1.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018 compared to $2.1 million for the same period in 2017. The decrease was driven by a reduction in clinical studies expense of $1.1 million in the three months ended September 30, 2018.
- Restructuring and Other Charges: Restructuring and other charges of $13.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018 reflect costs related to the discontinuation of ARYMO ER of $8.2 million, a charge related to the termination payment to Halo Pharmaceuticals of $3.1 million and legal fees incurred in the three months ended September 30, 2018 related to the filing of the Chapter 11 Cases of $2.6 million. Restructuring and other charges of $3.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017 reflect costs related to Egalet's expense reduction plan announced in August 2017 to decrease the operating expenses that did not directly support the growth of Egalet's commercial business.
- Change in Fair Value of Warrant Liability and Derivative Liability: During the three months ended September 30, 2018, Egalet recognized a change in the fair value of its derivative liabilities of $4.0 million. The change in fair value of the derivative liability is due primarily to the changes in the value of Egalet's common stock during the three months ended September 30, 2018.
- Interest Expense: Interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2018 was $32.9 million compared to interest expense of $4.7 million for the same period in 2017. The increase was driven primarily by the acceleration of the amortization of the debt discounts related to our 5.50% Notes, 6.50% Notes and 13% Notes.
- Net Loss: Net loss for the three months ended September 30, 2018 was ($51.2 million), or ($0.93) per share, compared to a net loss of ($18.9 million), or ($0.46) per share for the same period in 2017.
Recent Announcement
On October 31, 2018, Egalet announced it had entered into an asset purchase agreement to acquire four marketed products from Iroko Pharmaceuticals, Inc. ("Iroko"). If consummated, the proposed transaction will enable Egalet to focus on marketing predominantly non-narcotic pain products. To facilitate this transaction and reorganize Egalet's capital structure, Egalet has initiated proceedings under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code in the District of Delaware. As part of its restructuring, Egalet has filed a plan of reorganization that is supported by a majority in dollar amount of all classes of Egalet's debt holders. Additional information on the transaction and filing is contained in a report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
