NEWARK, California, November 07, 2017 - Depomed, Inc. (Nasdaq: DEPO) today reported financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2017 and provided an update to the business.

 

“During the third quarter, we made progress in stabilizing our business despite the declines in the opioid market. We would have expected to have made further progress in the fourth quarter if not for the negative impact of NUCYNTA supply issues following Hurricanes Irma and Maria,” said Arthur Higgins, President and CEO of Depomed. “With September’s expansion of the neurology salesforce and today’s exciting transaction with Slán Medicinal Holdings, we see our go forward growth based on three pillars comprised of maintaining a strong NUCYNTA franchise, growing our neurology franchise and building a new specialty business. At the core of this strategy is delivering value to our stakeholders while always putting the patient first.”

 

Business and Financial Highlights

 

·                  Third quarter 2017 revenues were $95 million

·                  Third quarter ending cash and marketable securities was $113 million

·                  Quarterly GAAP net loss of ($16) million or ($0.25) per share

·                  Quarterly non-GAAP adjusted earnings of $10 million, or $0.14 per share

·                  Quarterly non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA of $30 million

·                  Neurology Salesforce increased to 90 representatives effective September 1

·                  Acquisition of rights to Cosyntropin (Synthetic ACTH Depot) creates new specialty business

Transformational Transaction Creates New Specialty Business

 

This afternoon the Company announced that it has entered into an agreement with Slán Medicinal Holdings. (“Slán”), pursuant to which the Company acquired from Slán the rights to market the specialty drug, Cosyntropin (Synthetic ACTH Depot), in the United States and divested its Lazanda® (nasal fentanyl) to Slán. The Company expects Slán to submit a New Drug Application with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for the first indication for Cosyntropin (Synthetic ACTH Depot) in late 2018.

 

Executed Expansion of Neurology Salesforce

 

As of September 1st, the Company completed the growth of its Neurology salesforce to 90 representatives who are focused on Gralise® and CAMBIA®. The Company believes that the increased salesforce, with smaller and more targeted territories, will benefit these highly promotionally sensitive products. The Company also believes that the increased salesforce provides a platform that allows for the potential addition of neurology-based product acquisitions.

 

Puerto Rico Product Supply Update

 

Based on the information available to the Company at this time, the Company will experience temporary outages of certain strengths of NUCYNTA ER in the fourth quarter. The Company expects that based on our current inventory and our manufacturer’s potential ability to produce new drug supply that the magnitude of the outages will be less than $10 million.

 

NUCYNTA IR recently transitioned to a new third party manufacturer in the United States, and based on currently available information, the Company does not anticipate any material disruption to this supply. In addition, based on the information available at this time, the Company believes it has an adequate inventory of Gralise, which is manufactured in Puerto Rico.

 



 

Updated 2017 Financial Outlook

 

The Company is updating its 2017 financial guidance as a result of third quarter performance, the impact of Hurricanes Irma and Maria to the supply of NUCYNTA®, continuing contraction in the long-acting and short-acting opioid markets and the transfer of Lazanda to Slán Medicinal Holdings.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

 

To supplement our financial results presented on a U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, basis, we have included information about non-GAAP adjusted earnings, non-GAAP adjusted earnings per share and non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP financial measures, as useful operating metrics. We believe that the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures, when viewed with our results under GAAP and the accompanying reconciliation, provides supplementary information to analysts, investors, lenders, and our management in assessing the Company’s performance and results from period to period. We use these non-GAAP measures internally to understand, manage and evaluate the Company’s performance, and in part, in the determination of bonuses for executive officers and employees. These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, and not a substitute for, or superior to, net income or other financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP adjusted earnings and non-GAAP adjusted earnings per share are not based on any standardized methodology prescribed by GAAP and represent GAAP net income (loss) and GAAP earnings (loss) per share adjusted to exclude amortization, IPR&D and non-cash adjustments related to product acquisitions, stock-based compensation expense, non-cash interest expense related to debt,  costs associated with the special meeting requests made by an activist investor and CEO transition, costs associated with an attempted debt refinancing, restructuring costs, adjustments associated with non-recurring legal settlements and disputes, and to adjust for the tax effect related to each of the non-GAAP adjustments. Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA is not based on any standardized methodology prescribed by GAAP and represents GAAP net income (loss) adjusted to exclude interest income, interest expense, amortization, IPR&D and non-cash adjustments related to product acquisitions, stock-based compensation expense, depreciation, taxes, restructuring costs, adjustments related to non-recurring legal settlements and disputes, costs associated with an attempted debt refinancing, the special meeting requests made by an activist investor, and CEO transition. Non-GAAP financial measures used by us may be calculated differently from, and therefore may not be comparable to, non-GAAP measures used by other companies.

Note Regarding Use of GAAP and Non-GAAP Financial Measures To supplement our financial results presented on a U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, basis, the Company has included information about non-GAAP adjusted earnings, non-GAAP adjusted earnings per share and non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA, non-GAAP financial measures, as useful operating metrics. The Company believes that the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures, when viewed with our results under GAAP and the accompanying reconciliation, provides supplementary information to analysts, investors, lenders, and our management in assessing the Company’s performance and results from period to period. The Company uses these non-GAAP measures internally to understand, manage and evaluate the Company’s performance, and in part, in the determination of bonuses for executive officers and employees. These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, and not a substitute for, or superior to, net income or other financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP adjusted earnings and non-GAAP adjusted earnings per share are not based on any standardized methodology prescribed by GAAP and represent GAAP net income (loss) and GAAP earnings (loss) per share adjusted to exclude amortization, IPR&D and non-cash adjustments related to product acquisitions, stock-based compensation expense, non-cash interest expense related to debt, the special meeting requests made by an activist investor and CEO transition, restructuring costs, adjustments associated with non-recurring legal settlements and disputes, and to adjust for the tax effect related to each of the non-GAAP adjustments. Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA is not based on any standardized methodology prescribed by GAAP and represents GAAP net income (loss) adjusted to exclude interest income, interest expense, amortization, IPR&D and non-cash adjustments related to product acquisitions, stock-based compensation expense, depreciation, taxes, restructuring costs, adjustments related to non-recurring legal settlements and disputes, the special meeting requests made by an activist investor, and CEO transition. Non-GAAP financial measures used by us may be calculated differently from, and therefore may not be comparable to, non-GAAP measures used by other companies. 20
