BRIDGEWATER, N.J., March 20, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — RVL Pharmaceuticals plc (Nasdaq: RVLP) (“RVL” or the “Company”), a specialty pharmaceutical company, today announced financial results and business highlights for the three months and full year ended December 31, 2022.

“Net product sales of UPNEEQ (oxymetazoline hydrochloride ophthalmic solution), 0.1%, the first and only FDA-approved ophthalmic solution for acquired blepharoptosis, or droopy eyelids, have continued to grow, and we are pleased with the significant progress we made during 2022. In a very short time, we have made significant inroads into both the eye care and medical aesthetics markets and have essentially created a new category for this novel product. In fact, it’s important to note that our fourth quarter 2022 orders in aesthetics were comprised of approximately 50% reorders, demonstrating clear traction within our customer base,” stated Brian Markison, Chief Executive Officer of RVL.

“UPNEEQ is well positioned as a first-in-class cash pay product with no direct competition. Our model is designed to optimize patient and provider access across multiple channels: eye care, medical aesthetics, and now telemedicine, which we believe caters to a segment of the population that is reluctant to visit a clinician. As we look ahead, we are focused on two near-term imperatives: the rollout of Elevate, our next-generation e-commerce portal, which will enable subscription options, and business development. We have attracted an outstanding sales and leadership team working to grow UPNEEQ, and we believe that it is only natural to leverage our footprint,” continued Markison.

“Our expected rollout of a new e-commerce platform, and our expansion into telemedicine are exciting new steps designed to build momentum. We have continued to expand our outreach both to providers and consumers, whose response to our unique product has been overwhelmingly positive,” concluded Markison.

Operating Highlights

  • Launched into the medical aesthetics market in February 2022 and ended the year with approximately 4,300 new customer practices having ordered UPNEEQ.
  • Expanded our aesthetics sales team to end 2022 with sales coverage in approximately 70 territories.
  • Recently surpassed milestone of 20,000 cumulative unique pharmacy-paid prescribers.
  • Selectively opened a telemedicine channel beginning in the third quarter of 2022.

Preliminary UPNEEQ Net Product Sales – Update

On January 9, 2023, the Company announced preliminary fourth quarter and full year 2022 UPNEEQ net product sales of approximately $12.1 million and $36.5 million, respectively. These estimates included the recognition of $2.3 million of net product sales from our Direct Dispense program pursuant to which UPNEEQ is sold directly to physician practices and, more recently, to telemedicine partners. From inception, the Company recognized revenues related to its Direct Dispense program upon shipment to the customer by its third-party logistical partner. As sales volumes have grown, and the fourth quarter of 2022 is the first period with material Direct Dispense shipments to cross the period end, the Company has decided to refine its methodologies and, starting with the fourth quarter of 2022, the Company is recognizing Direct Dispense revenues upon delivery to the end customer. There is not a material impact to any previously reported period. As a result, $2.3 million of net product sales that were included in the Company’s preliminary estimates of fourth quarter and full year 2022 UPNEEQ net product sales will now be recognized in the first quarter of 2023. These sales were all supported by firm unconditional purchase orders, have since been paid for in full and have been received by end customers. This change in the Company’s methodologies does not impact management’s expectations for future growth of UPNEEQ.

Fourth Quarter 2022 Financial Highlights

  • UPNEEQ net product sales were $9.8 million, an increase of $6.7 million, or 216%, over the fourth quarter of 2021.
  • Loss from continuing operations was $(18.3) million. Adjusted EBITDA1 loss was $(9.3) million, an improvement of $5.9 million when compared to a loss of $(15.2) million in the fourth quarter of 2021.
  • At December 31, 2022, cash and cash equivalents were $44.5 million and long-term debt had an aggregate principal amount of $75.0 million.

Fourth Quarter 2022 Financial Results

Net product sales, relating entirely to sales of UPNEEQ, increased by $6.7 million to $9.8 million for the three months ended December 31, 2022, as compared to $3.1 million for the three months ended December 31, 2021, primarily due to higher volumes of UPNEEQ sold.

Total cost of goods sold increased by $1.5 million to $2.6 million for the three months ended December 31, 2022, as compared to $1.1 million for the three months ended December 31, 2021. The year over year increase in cost of goods sold was primarily driven by higher sales volumes.

Gross profit percentage from net product sales was 74% for the three months ended December 31, 2022, as compared to 58% for the three months ended December 31, 2021, primarily reflecting improved overhead absorption driven by higher volumes and more favorable average selling prices in the 2022 period.

Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased by $6.1 million to $17.6 million for the three months ended December 31, 2022, as compared to $23.7 million for the three months ended December 31, 2021. The year over year decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses was primarily influenced by a $3.3 million decrease from debt and equity issuance fees unique to the 2021 period, a $2.4 million decrease from foreign currency translation expense unique to the 2021 period, and $1.4 million in lower legal and other professional fees, partially offset by higher marketing expenses associated with the launch of UPNEEQ.

Research and development expenses decreased by $0.2 million to $0.9 million for the three months ended December 31, 2022, as compared to $1.1 million for the three months ended December 31, 2021. The year over year decrease in R&D expenses primarily reflects lower spending related to medical grant activity.  

Impairment of intangible assets was $13.3 million for the three months ended December 31, 2022, due to a write-down to fair value for arbaclofen ER, an indefinite-lived in-process research and development asset, due to delays and potentially increased costs in the anticipated launch of the product candidate.

Total other non-operating activities were a source of income of $5.9 million and $3.3 million for the three months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, largely reflecting $5.1 million and $4.6 million, respectively, in aggregate gains recognized from the change in fair value of the Company’s debt and warrant liability.

Loss from continuing operations for the three months ended December 31, 2022 was $(18.3) million, compared to $(19.7) million for the three months ended December 31, 2021. Adjusted EBITDA Loss for the three months ended December 31, 2022 was $(9.3) million, compared to $(15.2) million for the three months ended December 31, 2021.

Full Year 2022 Financial Highlights

  • UPNEEQ net product sales were $34.2 million, an increase of $26.7 million, or 356%, over 2021. Total revenues were $49.7 million, an increase of $32.2 million, or 184%, over 2021.
  • Loss from continuing operations was $(51.7) million. Adjusted EBITDA Loss was $(50.9) million, an improvement of $9.8 million when compared to $(60.7) million in 2021.

Full Year 2022 Financial Results

Net product sales increased by $26.7 million to $34.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2022, as compared to $7.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2021, primarily due to higher volumes of UPNEEQ sold, reflecting expanded commercialization into eye care markets and, effective February 2022, the medical aesthetics market.

Total revenues increased by $32.2 million to $49.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2022, from $17.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2021, primarily due to higher volumes of UPNEEQ sold and higher licensing revenue from Santen.

Royalty and licensing revenue increased by $5.5 million to $15.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2022, as compared to $10.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2021, primarily due to changes in milestone revenues recognized under our license agreement with Santen.

Total cost of goods sold increased by $5.9 million to $9.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2022, as compared to $3.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2021. The year over year increase in cost of goods sold was primarily driven by $3.7 million in higher product costs for UPNEEQ due to higher sales volume and by $2.3 million relating to increased royalties and contingent milestone payments due under an intellectual property license agreement, each attributable to sales of UPNEEQ.

Gross profit percentage was 81% for the year ended December 31, 2022, as compared to 79% for the year ended December 31, 2021, primarily due to higher licensing revenues in 2022 compared to 2021. Excluding licensing revenues, gross profit percentage from net product sales was 72% and 52% in the 2022 and 2021 periods, respectively, reflecting improved overhead absorption driven by higher volumes and more favorable average selling prices in the 2022 period.

Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased by $5.5 million to $82.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2022, as compared to $87.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2021. The year over year decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses was primarily influenced by $8.4 million in lower legal and other professional fees, $2.4 million in lower share-based compensation expense, $1.1 million in lower debt and equity issuance and transactional fees and $0.7 million in lower restructuring related expenditures, partially offset by $6.9 million in higher net compensation costs primarily for our expanded salesforce and $0.8 million of higher credit card fees.

Research and development expenses decreased by $2.9 million to $4.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2022, as compared to $6.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2021. The year over year decrease in R&D expenses primarily reflects $1.2 million in lower project spending, $0.3 million in lower share-based compensation expense and $1.2 million in restructuring expenses particular to the 2021 period.

Impairments of intangible assets were $13.3 million and $7.9 million for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, due to write-downs to fair value for arbaclofen ER, an indefinite-lived in-process research and development asset, due to delays in the anticipated launch of the product candidate.

Total other non-operating activities were a source of income of $7.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2022, largely reflecting $5.0 million in contingent gains earned subsequent to the sale of the legacy business to Alora Pharmaceuticals and $4.2 million in aggregate gains recognized from the change in fair value of the Company’s debt and warrant liability, partially offset by $3.1 million of amortization expense from a financial commitment asset. Total other non-operating activities were a source of income of $0.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2021.

Loss from continuing operations in 2022 was $(51.7) million, compared to $(82.8) million in 2021. Adjusted EBITDA Loss in 2022 was $(50.9) million, compared to $(60.7) million in 2021.

Liquidity

At December 31, 2022, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $44.5 million and long-term debt with aggregate principal amounts of $75.0 million, which are reflected on its balance sheet at fair value of $55.5 million.

Presentation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to our results determined in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) throughout this press release, we also present Adjusted EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP financial measurement. Adjusted EBITDA represents earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (or “EBITDA”) adjusted for (i) non-operating income or expense and (ii) the impact of certain non-cash, non-recurring or other items that are included in loss from continuing operations and EBITDA that we do not consider indicative of our ongoing operating performance. In particular, our measurement of Adjusted EBITDA excludes the following from EBITDA: licensing-related revenues, net of transaction costs, divestiture-related contingent milestone payments, net of fees, changes in the fair value of our debt and interest expense and warrants recognized through earnings, gains or losses on the sale of product rights, impairments of intangible assets, asset disposal charges, debt financing costs, share-based compensation expense, severance expenses, foreign currency translation, legal settlements and expenses and other expenses.

We use Adjusted EBITDA for business planning purposes, in assessing our performance and in measuring our performance relative to that of our competitors. We also believe that Adjusted EBITDA provides investors with useful information to understand our operating results and analyze financial and business trends on a period-to-period basis. Adjusted EBITDA has important limitations as an analytical tool, however, and you should not consider it in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA is not intended to replace, and should not be considered superior to, the presentation of our financial results in accordance with GAAP. Our definition of Adjusted EBITDA may differ from similar measures reported by other companies and may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures. Adjusted EBITDA is reconciled from income or loss from continuing operations, the most comparable GAAP financial measure, in the attached table “RVL Pharmaceuticals plc – GAAP to Non-GAAP Reconciliations” at the end of this press release.
