Zogenix Provides Corporate Update and Reports
Second Quarter 2016 Financial Results

Company will host a conference call today at 4:30 p.m. EDT/1:30 p.m. PDT


EMERYVILLE, Calif., August 9, 2016 Zogenix, Inc. (NASDAQ: ZGNX), a pharmaceutical company developing therapies for the treatment of orphan and central nervous system (CNS) disorders, today provided a corporate update and announced financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2016.

Corporate Update

•
Initiated second Phase 3 clinical trial, a multi-national study (Study 1502), for the Company’s lead product candidate, ZX008, as an adjunctive treatment of seizures in children with Dravet syndrome, at sites in Western Europe and Australia.

•
Continued enrollment in the first Phase 3 clinical trial of ZX008 in North America (Study 1501).

•
Presented updated data from the ongoing open-label clinical trial in Belgium demonstrating sustained effectiveness and cardiovascular-related safety, as well as high levels of sleep quality and quality of life, in the cohort of Dravet syndrome patients who began add-on treatment with ZX008 as early as 2010.

•
Amended the Company’s term loan facility to provide additional loan proceeds, extend the principal repayment schedule, reduce the interest rate, and improve certain covenants. The amendment is expected to result in an increase of approximately $10 million to Zogenix's cash balance at the end of 2017.

•
Completed the six-months ended June 30, 2016, with $127.8 million in cash and cash equivalents. Zogenix’s expected cash runway extends through 2017.

“We are pleased that both Studies, 1501 and 1502, in our ZX008 Phase 3 program for Dravet syndrome are now enrolling patients,” said Stephen J. Farr, Ph.D., President and CEO. “We are truly gratified by the enthusiasm demonstrated by physicians and Dravet syndrome families in participating in our ZX008 Phase 3 clinical trials. Zogenix continues to expect that the U.S. and European submissions for market authorization for ZX008 in Dravet syndrome will occur in 2017. As we continue moving ahead with our ZX008 Phase 3 clinical program, we remain in a strong financial position, with a cash runway that extends through 2017.”






Second Quarter 2016 Financial Results Compared to Second Quarter 2015 Financial Results

As a result of the sale of the Zohydro ER business in April 2015, all Zohydro ER revenue and expenses have been excluded from continuing operations for all periods herein and reported as discontinued operations.

•
Total revenue for the second quarter of 2016 was $2.1 million, consisting almost entirely of contract manufacturing revenue. This compared with total revenue of $7.4 million in the same quarter last year, which included $6.0 million of contract manufacturing revenue and $1.4 million of service and other product revenue. The decrease in contract manufacturing revenue in the second quarter of 2016 was due primarily to a decrease in deliveries to Endo International Plc under the supply agreement between the two companies.

•
Second quarter 2016 research and development expenses totaled $10.4 million, up from $6.2 million in the second quarter a year ago, as the Company progressed its two Phase 3 clinical trials for ZX008, initiating Study 1502 and continuing enrollment in Study 1501.

•
Second quarter 2016 selling, general and administrative expenses totaled $6.8 million, compared with $7.6 million in the second quarter a year ago.

•
Net loss from continuing operations for the second quarter of 2016 was $18.2 million, compared with $6.7 million in the second quarter a year ago.

•
Net loss from discontinued operations was $0.6 million for the second quarter of 2016, compared with net income of $79.2 million in the second quarter a year ago, which included a gain on the sale of the Zohydro ER business of $75.6 million net of tax expense.

•
Total net loss for the second quarter of 2016 was $18.8 million, or $0.76 per share, compared with net income of $72.5 million, or $3.78 per share, for the second quarter a year ago, which included the net gain on the sale of the Zohydro ER business.

Six-Months Ended June 30, 2016 Financial Results Compared to Six-Months Ended June 30, 2015 Financial Results

As a result of the sale of the Zohydro ER business, all Zohydro ER revenue and expenses have been excluded from continuing operations for all periods herein and reported as discontinued operations.

This compared with total revenue of $12.0 million in the same period last year, which included $10.2 million of contract manufacturing revenue and $1.8 million of net product and other service revenue. The increase in contract manufacturing revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2016 as compared to the same period in 2015 resulted primarily from an increase in recognition





of deferred revenue of $0.8 million based upon estimated future production under the supply agreement with Endo.

•
Research and development expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2016 totaled $18.4 million, up from $11.4 million in the year ago period, as the Company initiated its two Phase 3 clinical trials for ZX008.

•
Net loss from discontinued operations was $0.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016, compared to net income of $66.5 million in the same period a year ago, which included the net gain on the sale of the Zohydro ER business.

•
Total net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2016 was $29.2 million, or $1.18 per basic share and fully diluted, compared with net income of $49.6 million, or $2.59 per share, for the same period a year ago, which included the net gain on the sale of the Zohydro ER business.

•
Cash and cash equivalents at June 30, 2016 totaled $127.8 million, as compared to $155.3 million at December 31, 2015.


2016 Financial Guidance

Zogenix is reiterating its previously provided financial guidance for the full year 2016.

•
Research and development expenses are expected to be $54-59 million, reflecting initiation and ramp-up of ZX008 clinical studies;
•
Selling, general and administrative expenses are expected to be $25-27 million; and
•
Contract manufacturing revenue from the supply of Sumavel DosePro to Endo is expected at a low single-digit markup over cost of contract manufacturing.
