Optinose Reports Second Quarter 2023 Financial Results and Operational Updates

Company reports second quarter 2023 XHANCE net revenue of $19.5 million and increases full year 2023 XHANCE net revenue guidance

Strong improvement in operating efficiency in the first half of 2023 as SG&A and R&D expenses decreased by $22M or 33% compared to first half 2022

Conference call and webcast to be held today at 8:00 a.m. Eastern Time

YARDLEY, Pa., Aug. 10, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Optinose (NASDAQ:OPTN), a pharmaceutical company focused on patients treated by ear, nose and throat (ENT) and allergy specialists, today reported financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2023, and provided operational updates.

“We are pleased with the progress we made in the second quarter of 2023 towards our strategic objectives,” stated CEO Ramy Mahmoud, MD, MPH. “That means we are outperforming our initial expectations for full year 2023 XHANCE net revenues while operating far more efficiently. It also means our effort to secure the first-ever drug approval for patients with chronic sinusitis is progressing towards the target goal date of December 16, 2023, and that we are effectively readying our organization for a successful launch. These objectives are preparing us, if our new indication is approved, to achieve rapid adoption for treatment of the tens of millions of chronic sinusitis patients in need of an effective medication.”

Second Quarter 2023 Highlights

Chronic Rhinosinusitis Supplemental New Drug Application (sNDA)
In May the Company announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) accepted its sNDA for XHANCE® (fluticasone propionate) in the Exhalation Delivery System™ seeking a new indication for treatment of adults with chronic rhinosinusitis. The assigned Prescription Drug User Fee Act (PDUFA) target goal date is December 16, 2023.

Additional U.S. Patent Covering XHANCE
The United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) recently issued an additional patent covering XHANCE. U.S. Patent 11,602,603, was listed in the FDA’s Approved Drug Products with Therapeutic Equivalence Evaluations (Orange Book) for XHANCE in April and has a term that expires in 2028. XHANCE is covered by 15 Orange Book-listed patents.

The full text of the patent is available on the USPTO website www.uspto.gov.

Second Quarter 2023 Financial Results

Total revenues
The Company reported $19.5 million in net revenue from sales of XHANCE during the three-month period ended June 30, 2023 a decrease of 5% compared to $20.6 million during the three-month period ended June 30, 2022. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2023 the Company reported $31.3 million in net revenue from sales of XHANCE a decrease of 11% compared to $35.3 million during the six-month period ended June 30, 2022. The year-over-year decrease in net revenue is consistent with the Company’s previously communicated intent to prioritize its capital resources for a potential launch of XHANCE for the treatment of chronic rhinosinusitis.

Other income of $6.8 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2023, includes a $10.9 million unrealized gain on the fair value of warrants issued in November 2022.

Net income for the three-month period ended June 30, 2023, was $2.6 million, or $0.02 per share (basic and diluted). The net loss for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023, was $16.2 million, or $0.15 per share (basic and diluted).

As a result, the Company’s unaudited financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 (“Q22023 Financial Statements”) will state that there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern (i.e., a “going concern” paragraph).

About XHANCE
XHANCE is a drug-device combination product that uses the Exhalation Delivery System (also referred to as the EDS) designed to deliver a topical anti-inflammatory to the high and deep regions of the nasal cavity where sinuses ventilate and drain. XHANCE is approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps in patients 18 years of age or older and has been studied for treatment of chronic sinusitis (notably including patients without polyps in the nasal cavity) in two phase 3 trials, ReOpen1 and ReOpen2. Top-line results from these trials are the first ever that we are aware of that show improvement in both symptoms and inflammation inside the sinuses, and reduction in acute exacerbations of disease, with a nasal therapy for chronic sinusitis patients, including patients with or without nasal polyps. If approved, XHANCE may be the first drug ever FDA-approved for treatment of chronic rhinosinusitis either with or without nasal polyps.

Important Safety Information

CONTRAINDICATIONS: Hypersensitivity to any ingredient in XHANCE.

WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS:

  • Local Nasal Adverse Reactions: epistaxis, erosion, ulceration, septal perforation, Candida albicans infection, and impaired wound healing. Monitor patients periodically for signs of possible changes on the nasal mucosa. Avoid use in patients with recent nasal ulcerations, nasal surgery, or nasal trauma until healing has occurred.
  • Close monitoring for glaucoma and cataracts is warranted.
  • Hypersensitivity reactions (e.g., anaphylaxis, angioedema, urticaria, contact dermatitis, rash, hypotension, and bronchospasm) have been reported after administration of fluticasone propionate. Discontinue XHANCE if such reactions occur.
  • Immunosuppression and Risk of Infection: potential increased susceptibility to or worsening of infections (e.g., existing tuberculosis; fungal, bacterial, viral, or parasitic infection; ocular herpes simplex). Use with caution in patients with these infections. More serious or even fatal course of chickenpox or measles can occur in susceptible patients.
  • Hypercorticism and adrenal suppression may occur with very high dosages or at the regular dosage in susceptible individuals. If such changes occur, discontinue XHANCE slowly.
  • Patients with major risk factors for decreased bone mineral content should be monitored and treated with established standards of care.

ADVERSE REACTIONS: The most common adverse reactions (incidence ≥ 3%) are epistaxis, nasal septal ulceration, nasopharyngitis, nasal mucosal erythema, nasal mucosal ulcerations, nasal congestion, acute sinusitis, nasal septal erythema, headache, and pharyngitis.

DRUG INTERACTIONS: Strong cytochrome P450 3A4 inhibitors (e.g., ritonavir, ketoconazole): Use not recommended. May increase risk of systemic corticosteroid effects.

USE IN SPECIFIC POPULATIONS: Hepatic impairment. Monitor patients for signs of increased drug exposure.
