WESTLAKE VILLAGE, Calif., Nov. 04, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- MannKind Corporation (NASDAQ:MNKD) today reported financial results for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2020.

“Our employees continue to execute in a tumultuous Covid-19 environment,” said Michael Castagna, Chief Executive Officer. “As we head toward year-end, our focus remains on two significant drivers of value for shareholders: enabling healthcare providers to increase their prescribing of Afrezza and supporting United Therapeutics as they move the TreT clinical program to completion, including manufacturing TreT clinical supplies.”

Third Quarter 2020 Results

Total revenues were $15.4 million for the third quarter of 2020, reflecting Afrezza net revenue of $7.3 million and collaboration and services revenue of $8.1 million. Afrezza U.S net revenue of $7.3 million increased 27% compared to $5.7 million in the third quarter of 2019, driven by higher product demand, a favorable mix of cartridges, and price. The first sale of Afrezza to the Company’s marketing partner in Brazil was completed in the third quarter of 2019 for $0.7 million; there were no international sales in the third quarter of 2020. Collaboration and services revenue for the third quarter of 2020 decreased $0.1 million compared to the third quarter of 2019. 

Afrezza gross profit for the third quarter of 2020 was $3.7 million compared to a loss of $0.7 million in the same period of 2019, an increase of $4.4 million that was driven primarily by higher Afrezza revenue combined with a reduction in cost of goods sold, primarily attributable to a $2.8 million amendment fee associated with our insulin supply agreement in 2019. Non-GAAP gross margin in the third quarter of 2020 increased to 51% from 32% for the same quarter in 2019.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the third quarter of 2020 were $13.9 million compared to $16.7 million for the third quarter of 2019. This 17% decrease was primarily due to a $1.2 million reduction in promotional and marketing activities and a $0.8 million decrease in professional costs.

Interest expense for the third quarter of 2020 was $2.4 million compared to $5.3 million for the third quarter of 2019. This $2.9 million decrease was primarily attributable to a $3.4 million milestone obligation that occurred in the third quarter of 2019, partially offset by interest expense from the MidCap Credit Facility.

A loss on foreign currency translation for the third quarter of 2020 was $3.9 million compared to a $3.8 million gain for the third quarter of 2019. The fluctuation is related to the change in the U.S. dollar to Euro foreign exchange rate on the recognized loss on insulin purchase commitments, which are denominated in Euros.

The net loss for the third quarter of 2020 was $11.3 million, or $0.05 per share, compared to a $10.4 million net loss, or $0.05 per share in the third quarter of 2019. The higher net loss was mainly attributable to the change in foreign currency translation from a gain in 2019 to a loss in 2020, partially offset by the reduction in cost of goods sold, selling, general and administrative expenses and interest expense.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2020

Total revenues were $46.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, reflecting Afrezza net revenue of $22.3 million and collaboration and services revenue of $24.4 million. Afrezza net revenue increased 27% compared to $17.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, primarily driven by higher product demand, a more favorable mix of cartridges and price, partially offset by a reduction in sales to Biomm (Brazil). Collaboration and services revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 decreased $5.1 million compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily due to a $5.7 million decrease in revenue recognized from the UT Research Agreement, which was substantially completed in 2019.

Afrezza gross profit for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was $10.8 million compared to $2.1 million in the same period of 2019, an increase of $8.7 million, or +416%, that was driven primarily by a reduction in cost of goods sold combined with higher commercial product sales. Cost of goods sold decreased by $4.0 million, primarily attributable to a $2.8 million amendment fee associated with our insulin supply agreement in 2019, $0.8 million of increased 2020 manufacturing activities which resulted in a greater amount of costs capitalized to inventory and $1.1 million in reduced 2020 manufacturing-related spending, partially offset by $0.5 million of 2020 inventory write-offs and $0.4 million in costs associated with higher commercial product sales. Non-GAAP gross margin for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 increased to 49% from 28% for the same period in 2019, primarily due to higher Afrezza revenue and lower cost of goods sold.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 were $41.9 million compared to $58.9 million for the same period in 2019. This 29% decrease was primarily due to $9.3 million spent on direct-to-consumer television advertising in 2019 (which was not repeated in 2020), a $4.1 million decrease in promotional and marketing activities, a $1.3 million decrease in consulting costs, and a $1.2 million decrease in personnel and employee related costs.

The loss on foreign currency translation for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was $4.0 million compared to a $4.5 million gain for the same period in 2019. The fluctuation is related to the change in the U.S. dollar to Euro foreign exchange rate on the recognized loss on insulin purchase commitments, which are denominated in Euros.

The net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was $30.8 million, or $0.14 per share, compared to a $37.6 million net loss, or $0.20 per share for the same period in 2019. The lower net loss was mainly attributable to a decrease selling, general and administrative expenses, partially offset by the change in the foreign currency translation from a gain in 2019 to a loss in 2020. The reduction in the net loss per share was also impacted by a greater number of outstanding shares.

Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash at September 30, 2020 was $52.7 million compared to $50.2 million at December 31, 2019, which also included short-term investments of $20.0 million. The increase was primarily due to a milestone payment from United Therapeutics of $12.5 million, $15.2 million of net proceeds received from at-the-market offerings, $11.6 million received from warrant exercises and the origination of a Paycheck Protection Program loan for $4.9 million, offset by non-GAAP net cash used in operating activities of $40.9 million.
