WOODCLIFF LAKE, N.J., Aug. 09, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Eagle Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Nasdaq: EGRX) (“Eagle” or the “Company”) today announced financial results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022.

Business and Recent Highlights:

  • Completed the acquisition of Acacia on June 9, 2022, providing Eagle with two currently marketed, acute care, hospital products, both of which are new chemical entities (“NCEs”) with strong patent protection:
    • BARHEMSYS®4 is the first and only antiemetic approved by the FDA for rescue treatment of postoperative nausea and vomiting despite prophylaxis5
    • BYFAVO®6 for injection is indicated for the induction and maintenance of procedural sedation in adults undergoing procedures lasting 30 minutes or less, with an estimated total addressable market in procedural sedation of more than $0.4 billion per year7 in the U.S.
    • Combined addressable market is an estimated $3.1 billion per year8
    • Projected annual peak sales of $275 million9 in the United States
  • Acquired an equity stake in, with an option to purchase, Enalare, adding a portfolio of novel NCEs with strong intellectual property protection, from the mid-2030s into the 2040s, including composition of matter patents. Enalare’s lead compound, ENA-001 is an investigational, one-of-a-kind NCE being developed as an agnostic respiratory stimulant for multiple patient populations experiencing acute respiratory depression. The initial targeted indications include: post-operative respiratory depression, the most advanced development program; community drug overdose; and Apnea of Prematurity, a common condition in preterm infants. The Company believes this acquisition strengthens Eagle’s position as a diversified pharmaceutical company and a leader in hospital/anesthesia.
  • Supported AOP’s submission of new drug application (“NDA”) for landiolol, an ultra-selective Beta-1 Adrenergic Blocker, seeking approval for the short-term reduction of ventricular rate in patients with supraventricular tachycardia, including atrial fibrillation and atrial flutter. FDA decision with respect to approval is expected mid-2023, and enrollment of the study of pediatric patients with supraventricular tachycardia is underway in Europe.
  • Appointed pharmaceutical industry veteran, Debra M. Hussain, as Senior Vice President, Head of Commercial.

Financial Highlights

Second Quarter 2022

  • Total revenue for Q2 2022 was $74.1 million, compared to $48.1 million in Q2 2021, primarily reflecting product sales of vasopressin and PEMFEXY.

  • Q2 2022 adjusted non-GAAP net income was $20.3 million, or $1.58 per basic and $1.56 per diluted share, compared to adjusted non-GAAP net income of $12.4 million, or $0.95 per basic and $0.93 diluted share, in Q2 2021.

“Our 2022 results to date are bearing out the vision that we have been articulating for Eagle for some time. It’s only midyear, and we have already turned in the best earnings performance in the history of our company. Our first-half earnings per share are more than twice our full-year 2021 numbers. As we look to sustain and accelerate this growth, we continue to support our commercial launches and broaden our portfolio through acquisitions, such as Acacia and the potential to acquire Enalare, both of which enhance our position in hospitals and critical care,” stated Scott Tarriff, President and Chief Executive Officer of Eagle Pharmaceuticals.

“The addition of BARHEMSYS and BYFAVO, the planned launch of landiolol next year, if approved, CAL02, and now our investment in Enalare, puts us well on our way to becoming a diverse pharmaceutical company. We are pleased that we have delivered on our previously stated aspirations and believe we are well positioned to use 2022 as a springboard for further growth,” concluded Tarriff.

Second Quarter 2022 Financial Results

Total revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2022 was 74.1 million, as compared to $48.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021.

Q2 2022 PEMFEXY product sales were $16.5 million and vasopressin product sales were $11.3 million.

Q2 2022 RYANODEX® product sales were $8.8 million, compared to $7.9 million in the second quarter of 2021.

Q2 2022 BELRAPZO® product sales were $8.1 million, compared to $7.6 million in the second quarter of 2021.

Royalty revenue was $24.9 million in the second quarter of 2022, compared to $28.5 million in the second quarter of 2021. BENDEKA royalties were $23.0 million in the second quarter of 2022, compared to $27.8 million in the second quarter of 2021.

A summary of total revenue is outlined below:

  Three Months Ended June 30,  
    2022       2021    
  (unaudited)   (unaudited)  
Revenue (in thousands):        
Product sales, net $ 49,201     $ 19,621    
Royalty revenue   24,935       28,503    
            Total revenue $ 74,136     $ 48,124    
         

Gross margin was 68% during the second quarter of 2022, as compared to 78% in the second quarter of 2021. The decrease in gross margin was driven by revenue mix, primarily the launch of PEMFEXY and vasopressin.

R&D expense was $11.4 million for the second quarter of 2022, compared to $9.9 million for the second quarter of 2021. The increase was primarily due to clinical expense for fulvestrant and spend on CAL02. Excluding stock-based compensation and other non-cash and non-recurring items, adjusted non-GAAP R&D expense during the second quarter of 2022 was $10.8 million.

SG&A expenses in the second quarter of 2022 totaled $36.8 million compared to $16.6 million in the second quarter of 2021. This increase was primarily related to external legal spend for the acquisition of Acacia, severance costs, and sales and marketing expenses associated with the launch of PEMFEXY. Excluding stock-based compensation and other non-cash and non-recurring items, second quarter 2022 adjusted non-GAAP SG&A expense was $15.2 million.

Net loss for the second quarter of 2022 was $(9.5) million, or $(0.74) per basic and diluted share, compared to net income of $3.6 million, or $0.28 per basic and $0.27 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2021, as a result of the factors discussed above.

Adjusted non-GAAP net income for the second quarter of 2022 was $20.3 million, or $1.58 per basic and $1.56 per diluted share, compared to adjusted non-GAAP net income of $12.4 million, or $0.95 per basic and $0.93 diluted share, in the second quarter of 2021.

2022 Full Year Expense Guidance

  • Adjusted non-GAAP R&D expense for the full year 2022 is expected to be in the range of $46 million to $50 million, as compared to $32.5 million in 2021.
  • Adjusted non-GAAP SG&A expense for the full year 2022 is expected to be in the range of $62 million to $66 million, as compared to $54.9 million in 2021.

Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements contained in this press release speak only as of the date on which they were made. Except to the extent required by law, the Company undertakes no obligation to update such statements to reflect events that occur or circumstances that exist after the date on which they were made.

Non-GAAP Financial Performance Measures

In addition to financial information prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, this press release also contains adjusted non-GAAP net income, adjusted non-GAAP earnings per share attributable to Eagle, adjusted non-GAAP R&D expense and adjusted non-GAAP SG&A expense. The Company believes these measures provide investors and management with supplemental information relating to operating performance and trends that facilitate comparisons between periods and with respect to projected information.

Adjusted non-GAAP net income and related earnings per share information excludes amortization expense, stock-based compensation expense, depreciation expense, severance, acquisition related costs, legal settlement, non-cash interest expense, fair value adjustments on equity investment, convertible promissory note related credit losses, fair value adjustments related to derivative instruments, accretion of discount on convertible promissory note, foreign currency exchange loss and the tax effect of these adjustments.

Adjusted non-GAAP R&D expense excludes stock-based compensation expense and depreciation expense.

Adjusted non-GAAP SG&A expense excludes stock-based compensation expense, amortization expense, depreciation expense, severance, legal settlement and acquisition related costs.

The Company believes the use of non-GAAP financial measures helps indicate underlying trends in the Company’s business and are important in comparing current results with prior period results and understanding projected operating performance. Non-GAAP financial measures provide the Company and its investors with an indication of the Company’s baseline performance before items that are considered by the Company not to be reflective of the Company’s ongoing results. See the attached reconciliation tables for details of the amounts excluded and included to arrive at certain of the non-GAAP financial measures.

Investors should note that reconciliations of the forward-looking or projected non-GAAP financial measures included in this press release to their most comparable GAAP financial measures cannot be provided because the Company cannot do so without unreasonable efforts due to the unavailability of  information needed to calculate the reconciling items and the variability, complexity, and limited visibility of comparable GAAP measures, and the reconciling items that would be excluded from the non-GAAP financial measures in the future. Reconciliations of the components of projected adjusted non-GAAP R&D and adjusted non-GAAP SG&A to their most comparable GAAP financial measures is not provided because the quantification of projected GAAP R&D and SG&A and the reconciling items between projected GAAP to adjusted non-GAAP R&D and SG&A cannot be reasonably calculated or predicted at this time without unreasonable efforts. For example, with respect to GAAP R&D and SG&A, the Company is not able to calculate the favorable or unfavorable expenses related to the fair value adjustments on equity investments and derivative instruments primarily due to nature of these transactions. Such unavailable information could be significant such that actual GAAP R&D and SG&A would vary significantly from projected GAAP and adjusted non-GAAP R&D and adjusted non-GAAP SG&A.

These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, the information prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The Company strongly encourages investors to review its consolidated financial statements and publicly-filed reports in their entirety and cautions investors that the non-GAAP financial measures used by the Company may differ from similar measures used by other companies, even when similar terms are used to identify such measures.

Important Safety Information for BARHEMSYS® (amisulpride)4 Injection

Contraindication

BARHEMSYS is contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity to amisulpride.

QT Prolongation

BARHEMSYS causes dose- and concentration-dependent prolongation of the QT interval. The recommended dosage is 5 mg or 10 mg as a single intravenous (IV) dose infused over 1 to 2 minutes.

Avoid BARHEMSYS in patients with congenital long QT syndrome and in patients taking droperidol.

Electrocardiogram (ECG) monitoring is recommended in patients with pre-existing arrhythmias/cardiac conduction disorders, electrolyte abnormalities (e.g., hypokalemia or hypomagnesemia), congestive heart failure, and in patients taking other medicinal products (e.g., ondansetron) or with other medical conditions known to prolong the QT interval.

Adverse Reactions

Common adverse reactions reported in ≥ 2% of adult patients who received BARHEMSYS 5 mg (n=748) and at a higher rate than placebo (n=741) in clinical trials for the prevention of PONV were: chills (4% vs. 3%), hypokalemia (4% vs. 2%), procedural hypotension (3% vs. 2%), and abdominal distention (2% vs. 1%).

Serum prolactin concentrations were measured in one prophylaxis study where 5% (9/176) of BARHEMSYS-treated patients had increased blood prolactin reported as an adverse reaction compared with 1% (1/166) of placebo-treated patients.

The most common adverse reaction, reported in ≥ 2% of adult patients who received BARHEMSYS 10 mg (n=418) and at a higher rate than placebo (n=416), in clinical trials for the treatment of PONV was infusion site pain (6% vs. 4%).

Use in Specific Populations

Lactation

Amisulpride is present in human milk. There are no reports of adverse effects on the breastfed child and no information on the effects of amisulpride on milk production.

BARHEMSYS may result in an increase in serum prolactin levels, which may lead to a reversible increase in maternal milk production. In a clinical trial, serum prolactin concentrations in females (n=112) increased from a mean of 10 ng/mL at baseline to 32 ng/mL after BARHEMSYS treatment and from 10 ng/mL to 19 ng/mL in males (n=61). No clinical consequences due to elevated prolactin levels were reported.

To minimize exposure to a breastfed infant, lactating women may consider interrupting breastfeeding and pumping and discarding breast milk for 48 hours after receiving a dose of BARHEMSYS.

Pediatric Use

Safety and effectiveness in pediatric patients have not been established.

Geriatric Use

No overall differences in safety or effectiveness were observed between these patients and younger patients, and other reported clinical experience has not identified differences in responses between the elderly and younger patients, but greater sensitivity of some older individuals cannot be ruled out.

Renal Impairment

Avoid BARHEMSYS in patients with severe renal impairment (estimated glomerular filtration rate [eGFR] < 30 mL/min/1.73 m2). The pharmacokinetics of amisulpride in patients with severe renal impairment have not been adequately studied in clinical trials. Amisulpride is known to be substantially excreted by the kidneys, and patients with severe renal impairment may have increased systemic exposure and an increased risk of adverse reactions.

No dosage adjustment is necessary in patients with mild to moderate renal impairment

(eGFR ≥ 30 mL/min/1.73 m2).

Drug Interactions

  • BARHEMSYS causes dose- and concentration-dependent QT prolongation. To avoid potential additive effects, avoid use of BARHEMSYS in patients taking droperidol.
  • ECG monitoring is recommended in patients taking other drugs known to prolong the QT interval (e.g., ondansetron).
  • Reciprocal antagonism of effects occurs between dopamine agonists (e.g., levodopa) and BARHEMSYS. Avoid using levodopa with BARHEMSYS.

Important Safety Information for BYFAVO™ (remimazolam)5 Injection

Indications

BYFAVO is a benzodiazepine indicated for the induction and maintenance of procedural sedation in adults undergoing procedures lasting 30 minutes or less.

Important Safety Information

WARNING: PERSONNEL AND EQUIPMENT FOR MONITORING AND RESUSCITATION AND RISKS FROM CONCOMITANT USE WITH OPIOID ANALGESICS

Personnel and Equipment for Monitoring and Resuscitation

  • Only personnel trained in the administration of procedural sedation, and not involved in the conduct of the diagnostic or therapeutic procedure, should administer BYFAVO. 
  • Administering personnel must be trained in the detection and management of airway obstruction, hypoventilation, and apnea, including the maintenance of a patent airway, supportive ventilation, and cardiovascular resuscitation. 
  • BYFAVO has been associated with hypoxia, bradycardia, and hypotension. Continuously monitor vital signs during sedation and during the recovery period.
  • Resuscitative drugs, and age- and size-appropriate equipment for bag-valve-mask–assisted ventilation must be immediately available during administration of BYFAVO.

Risks From Concomitant Use With Opioid Analgesics and Other Sedative-Hypnotics

Concomitant use of benzodiazepines, including BYFAVO, and opioid analgesics may result in profound sedation, respiratory depression, coma, and death. The sedative effect of intravenous BYFAVO can be accentuated by concomitantly administered CNS depressant medications, including other benzodiazepines and propofol. Continuously monitor patients for respiratory depression and depth of sedation.

Contraindication 

BYFAVO is contraindicated in patients with a history of severe hypersensitivity reaction to dextran 40 or products containing dextran 40.

Personnel and Equipment for Monitoring and Resuscitation

Clinically notable hypoxia, bradycardia, and hypotension were observed in Phase 3 studies of BYFAVO. Continuously monitor vital signs during sedation and through the recovery period. Only personnel trained in the administration of procedural sedation, and not involved in the conduct of the diagnostic or therapeutic procedure, should administer BYFAVO. Administering personnel must be trained in the detection and management of airway obstruction, hypoventilation, and apnea, including the maintenance of a patent airway, supportive ventilation, and cardiovascular resuscitation. Resuscitative drugs, and age- and size-appropriate equipment for bag-valve-mask–assisted ventilation must be immediately available during administration of BYFAVO. Consider the potential for worsened cardiorespiratory depression prior to using BYFAVO concomitantly with other drugs that have the same potential (e.g., opioid analgesics or other sedative-hypnotics). Administer supplemental oxygen to sedated patients through the recovery period. A benzodiazepine reversal agent (flumazenil) should be immediately available during administration of BYFAVO.

Risks From Concomitant Use With Opioid Analgesics and Other Sedative-Hypnotics

Concomitant use of BYFAVO and opioid analgesics may result in profound sedation, respiratory depression, coma, and death. The sedative effect of IV BYFAVO can be accentuated when administered with other CNS depressant medications (eg, other benzodiazepines and propofol). Titrate the dose of BYFAVO when administered with opioid analgesics and sedative-hypnotics to the desired clinical response. Continuously monitor sedated patients for hypotension, airway obstruction, hypoventilation, apnea, and oxygen desaturation. These cardiorespiratory effects may be more likely to occur in patients with obstructive sleep apnea, the elderly, and ASA-PS class III or IV patients.

Hypersensitivity Reactions 

BYFAVO contains dextran 40, which can cause hypersensitivity reactions, including rash, urticaria, pruritus, and anaphylaxis. BYFAVO is contraindicated in patients with a history of severe hypersensitivity reaction to dextran 40 or products containing dextran 40. 

Neonatal Sedation

Use of benzodiazepines during the later stages of pregnancy can result in sedation (respiratory depression, lethargy, hypotonia) in the neonate. Observe newborns for signs of sedation and manage accordingly.

Pediatric Neurotoxicity

Published animal studies demonstrate that anesthetic and sedation drugs that block NMDA receptors and/or potentiate GABA activity increase neuronal apoptosis in the developing brain and result in long-term cognitive deficits when used for longer than 3 hours. The clinical significance of this is not clear. However, the window of vulnerability to these changes is believed to correlate with exposures in the third trimester of gestation through the first several months of life but may extend out to approximately 3 years of age in humans. 

Anesthetic and sedation drugs are a necessary part of the care of children needing surgery, other procedures, or tests that cannot be delayed, and no specific medications have been shown to be safer than any other. Decisions regarding the timing of any elective procedures requiring anesthesia should take into consideration the benefits of the procedure weighed against the potential risks.

Adverse Reactions

The most common adverse reactions reported in >10% of patients (N=630) receiving BYFAVO 5-30 mg (total dose) and undergoing colonoscopy (two studies) or bronchoscopy (one study) were: hypotension, hypertension, diastolic hypertension, systolic hypertension, hypoxia, and diastolic hypotension.

Use in Specific Populations

Pregnancy

There are no data on the specific effects of BYFAVO on pregnancy. Benzodiazepines cross the placenta and may produce respiratory depression and sedation in neonates. Monitor neonates exposed to benzodiazepines during pregnancy and labor for signs of sedation and respiratory depression.

Lactation

Monitor infants exposed to BYFAVO through breast milk for sedation, respiratory depression, and feeding problems. A lactating woman may consider interrupting breastfeeding and pumping and discarding breast milk during treatment and for 5 hours after BYFAVO administration. 

Pediatric Use

Safety and effectiveness in pediatric patients have not been established. BYFAVO should not be used in patients less than 18 years of age.

Geriatric Use

No overall differences in safety or effectiveness were observed between these subjects and younger subjects. However, there is a potential for greater sensitivity (eg, faster onset, oversedation, confusion) in some older individuals. Administer supplemental doses of BYFAVO slowly to achieve the level of sedation required and monitor all patients closely for cardiorespiratory complications.

Hepatic Impairment

In patients with severe hepatic impairment, the dose of BYFAVO should be carefully titrated to effect. Depending on the overall status of the patient, lower frequency of supplemental doses may be needed to achieve the level of sedation required for the procedure. All patients should be monitored for sedation-related cardiorespiratory complications.

Abuse and Dependence

BYFAVO is a federally controlled substance (CIV) because it contains remimazolam which has the potential for abuse and physical dependence.
