WESTLAKE VILLAGE, Calif., Feb. 25, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- MannKind Corporation MNKD today reported financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2020.

"Our fourth quarter produced exceptional results, with $10.1 million in Afrezza net revenue and positive clinical data for Tyvaso DPI from the BREEZE study conducted by United Therapeutics," said Michael Castagna, Chief Executive Officer of MannKind Corporation. "UT also announced their plan to submit a new drug application for Tyvaso DPI to the FDA in April 2021. During the fourth quarter, we solidified our new direction with the acquisition of QrumPharma, which added a nebulized version of clofazimine to our pipeline of therapies for orphan lung diseases, and we entered into a collaboration agreement with Vertice for the co-promotion of Thyquidity, which is indicated for hyperthyroidism and is expected to expand our reach into endocrine diseases."

Fourth Quarter 2020 Results

Total revenues were $18.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2020, reflecting Afrezza net revenue of $10.1 million and collaborations and services revenue of $8.4 million. Afrezza net revenue increased 30% compared to $7.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2019, primarily driven by higher product demand with a more favorable mix of Afrezza cartridges and more favorable gross-to-net deductions. Collaborations and services revenue increased $0.2 million compared to the fourth quarter of 2019.

Afrezza gross profit for the fourth quarter of 2020 was $6.4 million compared to $3.1 million in the same period of 2019, an increase of $3.3 million, or 105%, that was driven by a combination of increased Afrezza revenue and a reduction in cost of goods sold.

In-process research and development expense for the fourth quarter of 2020 was $13.2 million, reflecting the acquisition of QrumPharma for approximately $12.8 million in total consideration and approximately $0.4 million in transaction costs. The acquisition of QrumPharma was accounted for as an asset acquisition and expensed on the date of acquisition as substantially all of the fair value of the assets acquired was concentrated in a single asset that consisted of in-process research and development in a pre-clinical development state.

Research and development expenses for the fourth quarter of 2020 were $1.5 million compared to $2.0 million for the fourth quarter of 2019. This decrease was mainly related to lower clinical trial spending.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the fourth quarter of 2020 were $17.1 million compared to $15.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2019. This increase of $1.4 million, or 9%, was primarily attributable to a $1.2 million increase in personnel costs related to the expansion of our sales and medical field force.

During the fourth quarter of 2020, loss on foreign currency translation for insulin purchase commitments, which are denominated in Euros, was $4.0 million compared to $2.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2019.  The fluctuation was due to a change in the U.S. dollar to Euro foreign exchange rate.

Interest expense on debt for the fourth quarter of 2020 was $2.4 million compared to $2.3 million for the fourth quarter of 2019.

The net loss for the fourth quarter of 2020 was $26.4 million, or $0.11 per share, compared to $14.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2019, or $0.07 per share. The increase in the net loss of $12.1 million was primarily due to the write-off of in-process research and development related to the acquisition of QrumPharma. On a non-GAAP basis, excluding the expense incurred for the acquisition of QrumPharma, the net loss for the fourth quarter of 2020 was $13.2 million, or $0.06 per share.

Twelve Months Ended December 31, 2020

Total revenues were $65.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2020, reflecting Afrezza net revenue of $32.3 million and collaborations and services revenue of $32.8 million. Afrezza net revenue increased 28% compared to $25.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2019, primarily driven by higher product demand with a more favorable mix of Afrezza cartridges, a price increase and more favorable gross-to-net deductions, all of which was partially offset by a reduction in sales to Biomm (Brazil). Collaborations and services revenue decreased $4.9 million compared to the full year ended December 31, 2019, primarily driven by a $5.8 million decrease in revenue recognized from the UT Research Agreement, which was substantially completed in the second quarter of 2019.

Afrezza gross profit was $17.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2020, an increase of $12.0 million, or 230%, compared to a gross profit of $5.2 million in the same period in 2019, primarily due higher commercial product sales combined with a reduction in cost of goods sold.

In-process research and development expense for the year ended December 31, 2020 was $13.2 million, reflecting the research and development acquired and expensed from the acquisition of QrumPharma for approximately $12.8 million in total consideration and approximately $0.4 million in transaction costs.

Research and development expenses for the year ended December 31, 2020 were $6.2 million compared to $6.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2019. This decrease of $0.7 million, or 9%, was primarily attributable to lower clinical trial spending.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the year ended December 31, 2020 were $59.0 million compared to $74.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2019. This decrease of $15.6 million, or 21%, was primarily attributable a $9.3 million decrease in costs for television advertising for Afrezza, a $4.1 million decrease in promotional and marketing activities in response to the COVID-19 pandemic and a $2.5 million decrease in professional fees.

An impairment of $1.9 million was recognized for the year ended December 31, 2020 on a commitment asset and debt issuance costs related to future funding commitments of the MidCap Credit Facility. There were no asset impairments for the year ended December 31, 2019.

For the year ended December 31, 2020, foreign currency translation for insulin purchase commitments, which are denominated in Euros, resulted in a loss of $8.0 million compared to a gain of $1.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2019. The fluctuation was due to a change in the U.S. dollar to Euro foreign exchange rate.

Interest expense on debt for the year ended December 31, 2020 was $9.5 million compared to $10.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2019. This $1.4 million decrease was primarily attributable to a $3.4 million milestone obligation to Deerfield that was achieved in the third quarter of 2019 and a decrease of $0.8 million of interest expense related to the Deerfield Credit Facility, which was extinguished in the third quarter of 2019. This decrease was partially offset by an increase in interest expense from the MidCap Credit Facility of $2.3 million and an increase in interest expense from our Mann Group promissory notes of $0.6 million in 2020.

The net loss for the year ended December 31, 2020 was $57.2 million, or $0.26 per share, compared to $51.9 million net loss for the year ended December 31, 2019, or $0.27 per share. The higher net loss was mainly attributable to the write-off of in-process research and development related to the acquisition of QrumPharma and a loss on foreign currency translation related to insulin purchase commitments denominated in Euros, offset by a decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses. On a non-GAAP basis, excluding the expense incurred for the acquisition of QrumPharma, the net loss for the year ended December 31, 2020 was $44.0 million, or $0.20 per share.

Cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash, and short-term investments at December 31, 2020 was $67.2 million compared to $50.2 million at December 31, 2019.

Debt Reductions Subsequent to December 31, 2020

Pursuant to the terms of the senior convertible notes, the Company forced the conversion of all $5.0 million in principal of such notes into 1,666,667 shares of the Company's common stock.

In addition, the Mann Group converted $9.6 million of principal and $0.4 million of accrued interest on its convertible promissory note into 4.0 million shares of the Company's common stock. As of the date hereof, $53.4 million in principal remains outstanding under the promissory notes held by the Mann Group ($18.4 of which is convertible).

Sale-Leaseback of the Danbury Manufacturing Facility

Subsequent to December 31, 2020, the Company entered into a non-binding letter of intent ("LOI") with a third party to sell and lease back a portion of the Company's Danbury manufacturing facility and administrative offices. The terms of the LOI include a sales price of approximately $95 million - $105 million, a lease term of 20 years with four 5-year renewal options, and annual rent of approximately $10 million - $11 million at the beginning of the lease. If the transaction is completed, the Company intends to use the proceeds for general corporate purposes, and may also pay down a portion of its senior secured debt. The completion of the transactions contemplated by the LOI is subject to certain conditions, including the negotiation of satisfactory definitive agreements and satisfactory results of the buyer's inspections and other investigations, all of which are anticipated to be completed during the first quarter of 2021.   However, there can be no assurances that this proposed transaction will be completed in the timeframe or on the principal terms set forth above, or at all.
