Summary of Third Quarter 2018 Financial Results
Net revenue was approximately $3.5 million for the third quarter of 2018, compared with approximately $4.4 million for the third quarter of 2017. Net revenue decreased primarily due to a decrease in prenatal vitamin sales partially offset by an increase in sales of IMVEXXY.
Net revenue from the company’s prescription prenatal vitamin business was approximately $3.3 million for the third quarter of 2018, compared with approximately $4.4 million for the third quarter of 2017. The decrease was primarily related to the number of prenatal vitamin units sold and higher utilization of coupons offered to customers as compared to the third quarter of 2017. The company launched the IMVEXXY 10 mcg dose on August 6, 2018 followed by the 4 mcg dose on September 13, 2018. Net revenue for IMVEXXY was approximately $0.2 million for the third quarter of 2018 and were greatly affected by our co-pay assistance program, which is a maximum $35 out-of-pocket copay assistance program that allows patients to access the product for a reasonable cost. The company expects the net revenue for IMVEXXY to improve as commercial payer coverage for IMVEXXY increases and insurance plans complete the process needed to adjudicate IMVEXXY prescriptions at pharmacies.
Total operating expenses for the third quarter of 2018 included research and development (R&D) expenses and sales, general, and administrative expenses (SG&A). R&D expenses for the third quarter of 2018 were approximately $6.7 million compared with approximately $6.4 million for the prior year’s quarter. SG&A expenses for the third quarter of 2018 were approximately $30.4 million compared with approximately $12.1 million for the prior year’s quarter, primarily due to higher sales, marketing, and personnel costs to support commercialization of IMVEXXY and pre-commercialization activities for BIJUVA.
Net loss for the third quarter of 2018 was approximately $35.6 million, or $0.16 per basic and diluted share, compared with approximately $14.7 million, or $0.07 per basic and diluted share, for the third quarter of 2017.
Balance Sheet
As of September 30, 2018, the company’s cash on hand totaled approximately $190 million, compared with approximately $127.1 million at December 31, 2017. Total outstanding debt, net of issuance costs, was approximately $73.3 million as of September 30, 2018.

About IMVEXXY
IMVEXXY (estradiol vaginal inserts) is approved in the U.S. for the treatment of moderate-to-severe dyspareunia (vaginal pain associated with sexual activity), a symptom of vulvar and vaginal atrophy (VVA), due to menopause. IMVEXXY is the only product in its therapeutic class to offer a 4 mcg and 10 mcg dose, the 4 mcg dose representing the lowest approved dose of vaginal estradiol available.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION FOR IMVEXXY
WARNING: ENDOMETRIAL CANCER, CARDIOVASCULAR DISORDERS, BREAST CANCER
See full prescribing information for complete boxed warning. Estrogen-Alone Therapy ● There is an increased risk of endometrial cancer in a woman with a uterus who uses unopposed estrogens ● Estrogen-alone therapy should not be used for the prevention of cardiovascular disease or dementia ● The Women’s Health Initiative (WHI) estrogen-alone substudy reported increased risks of stroke and deep vein thrombosis (DVT) ● The WHI Memory Study (WHIMS) estrogen-alone ancillary study of WHI reported an increased risk of probable dementia in postmenopausal women 65 years of age and older Estrogen Plus Progestin Therapy ● Estrogen plus progestin therapy should not be used for the prevention of cardiovascular disease or dementia ● The WHI estrogen plus progestin substudy reported increased risks of stroke, DVT, pulmonary embolism (PE) and myocardial infarction (MI) ● The WHI estrogen plus progestin substudy reported increased risks of invasive breast cancer ● The WHIMS estrogen plus progestin ancillary study of WHI reported an increased risk of probable dementia in postmenopausal women 65 years of age and older |
CONTRAINDICATIONS
| ● | IMVEXXY™ is contraindicated in women with any of the following conditions: undiagnosed abnormal genital bleeding; known, suspected, or history of breast cancer; known or suspected estrogen-dependent neoplasia; active DVT, PE, or history of these conditions; active arterial thromboembolic disease or a history of these conditions; known anaphylactic reaction or angioedema to IMVEXXY; known liver impairment or disease; known protein C, protein S, or antithrombin deficiency, or other known thrombophilic disorders. |
WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS

| ● | The use of estrogen-alone and estrogen plus progestin therapy has been reported to result in an increase in abnormal mammograms requiring further evaluation. |
| ● | The WHI estrogen plus progestin substudy reported a statistically non-significant increased risk of ovarian cancer. A meta-analysis of 17 prospective and 35 retrospective epidemiology studies found that women who used hormonal therapy for menopausal symptoms had an increased risk for ovarian cancer. The exact duration of hormone therapy use associated with an increased risk of ovarian cancer, however, is unknown. |
| ● | Other warnings include: gallbladder disease; severe hypercalcemia, loss of vision, severe hypertriglyceridemia or cholestatic jaundice. |
| ● | Estrogen therapy may cause an exacerbation of asthma, diabetes mellitus, epilepsy, migraine, porphyria, systemic lupus erythematosus, and hepatic hemangiomas and should be used with caution in women with these conditions. |
| ● | Women on thyroid replacement therapy should have their thyroid function monitored. |
ADVERSE REACTIONS
| ● | The most common adverse reaction with IMVEXXY (incidence ≥ 3 percent) and greater than placebo was headache. |

About BIJUVA
BIJUVA is a novel combination of bio-identical estradiol and bio-identical progesterone approved for the treatment of moderate to severe vasomotor symptoms associated with menopause in women with a uterus in a once daily softgel capsule taken orally. Bio-identical refers to estradiol and progesterone that are molecularly identical to the hormones circulating naturally in the woman’s body. There is no evidence that bio-identical hormones are safer or more effective than synthetic hormones. BIJUVA is the first and only bio-identical estradiol and bio-identical progesterone product offering women an alternative to the available FDA-approved synthetic (non-bio-identical) hormones, the separate FDA-approved bio-identical estrogen and progesterone products that are used together but are not approved for combination use, and the unapproved compounded bio-identical hormone products. An estimated total of 15 to 20 million annual prescriptions of both the separate FDA-approved and compounded bio-identical estrogen and progesterone products are filled annually in the US.ii
INDICATION
BIJUVA is a combination of an estrogen and progesterone indicated in a woman with a uterus for the treatment of moderate to severe vasomotor symptoms due to menopause.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
WARNING: CARDIOVASCULAR DISORDERS, BREAST CANCER, ENDOMETRIAL CANCER, AND PROBABLE DEMENTIA See full prescribing information for complete boxed warning. Estrogen Plus Progestin Therapy ● Estrogen plus progestin therapy should not be used for the prevention of cardiovascular disease or dementia ● The Women’s Health Initiative (WHI) estrogen plus progestin substudy reported increased risks of stroke, deep vein thrombosis (DVT), pulmonary embolism (PE), and myocardial infarction (MI) ● The WHI estrogen plus progestin substudy reported increased risks of invasive breast cancer ● The WHI Memory Study (WHIMS) estrogen plus progestin ancillary study of WHI reported an increased risk of probable dementia in postmenopausal women 65 years of age of older Estrogen-Alone Therapy ● There is an increased risk of endometrial cancer in a woman with a uterus who uses unopposed estrogens ● Estrogen-alone therapy should not be used for the prevention of cardiovascular disease or dementia ● The WHI estrogen-alone substudy reported increased risks of stroke and DVT ● The WHIMS estrogen-alone ancillary study of WHI reported an increased risk of probable dementia in postmenopausal women 65 years of age or older |
CONTRAINDICATIONS
| ● | BIJUVA is contraindicated in women with any of the following conditions: Undiagnosed abnormal genital bleeding; Known, suspected, or history of cancer of the breast; Known or suspected estrogen-dependent neoplasia; Active DVT, PE, or history of these conditions; Active arterial thromboembolic disease (for example, stroke, MI), or a history of these conditions; Known anaphylactic reaction, angioedema, or hypersensitivity to BIJUVA or any of its ingredients; Known liver impairment or disease; Known protein C, protein S, or antithrombin deficiency, or other known thrombophilic disorders. |
WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS
| ● | An increased risk of PE, DVT, stroke, and MI has been reported with estrogen plus progestin therapy. Should these occur or be suspected, therapy should be discontinued immediately. Risk factors for arterial vascular disease and/or venous thromboembolism (VTE) should be managed appropriately. |
| ● | The WHI substudy of daily estrogen plus progestin after a mean follow-up of 5.6 years reported an increased risk of invasive breast cancer. Observational studies have also reported an increased risk of breast cancer for estrogen plus progestin therapy after several years of use. The risk increased with duration of use an appeared to return to baseline over about 5 years after stopping treatment (only the observational studies have substantial data on risk after stopping). The use of estrogen plus progestin therapy has been reported to result in an increase in abnormal mammograms requiring further evaluation. |
| ● | Endometrial hyperplasia (a possible precursor to endometrial cancer) has been reported to occur at a rate of approximately less than one percent with BIJUVA. Clinical surveillance of all women using estrogen plus progestin therapy is important. Adequate diagnostic measures should be undertaken to rule out malignancy in postmenopausal women with undiagnosed persistent or recurring abnormal genital bleeding. |
| ● | The WHI estrogen plus progestin substudy reported a statistically non-significant increased risk of ovarian cancer. A meta-analysis of 17 prospective and 35 retrospective epidemiology studies found that women who used hormonal therapy for menopausal symptoms had an increased risk for ovarian cancer. The exact duration of hormone therapy use associated with an increased risk of ovarian cancer, however, is unknown. |
| ● | In the WHIMS ancillary studies of postmenopausal women 65 to 79 years of age, there was an increased risk of developing probable dementia in women receiving estrogen plus progestin when compared to placebo. It is unknown whether these findings apply to younger postmenopausal women. |
| ● | Estrogens increase the risk of gallbladder disease. |
| ● | Discontinue estrogen if severe hypercalcemia, loss of vision, severe hypertriglyceridemia, or cholestatic jaundice occurs. |
| ● | Monitor thyroid function in women on thyroid replacement hormone therapy. |
ADVERSE REACTIONS
The most common adverse reactions (≥3%) for BIJUVA are breast tenderness (10.4%), headache (3.4%), vaginal bleeding (3.4%), vaginal discharge (3.4%), and pelvic pain (3.1%).

About ANNOVERA
The ANNOVERA one-year contraceptive vaginal system combines a widely used estrogen (ethinyl estradiol) with a new progestin segesterone acetate (Nestorone®) into a single vaginal ring to prevent ovulation for an entire year (13 cycles; used in repeated four-week cycles (remaining in place continuously for three weeks followed by removal for one week)). Designed to empower women to be in complete control of their fertility and menstruation, ANNOVERA represents the first and only long-acting birth control product that is reversible and does not require a medical procedure for insertion or removal. The soft, flexible ring can be inserted and removed by the woman herself and without the help of a healthcare professional. The one-year vaginal system represents a new option for women, including nulliparous women (women who have not given birth) desiring long-acting reversible contraception. The one-year contraceptive vaginal system does not require refrigeration.
Indication
ANNOVERA is a progestin/estrogen CHC indicated for use by females of reproductive potential to prevent pregnancy. (Limitation of use: Not adequately evaluated in females with a BMI of > 29 kg/m2).
Important Safety Information
Cigarette smoking increases the risk of cardiovascular events from CHC use. This risk increases with age, particularly in females over 35 years of age, and with the number of cigarettes smoked. CHCs should not be used by females who are over 35 years of age and smoke.
Due to increased risks of serious side effects, ANNOVERA should not be used in females with certain medical conditions, including females who have a high risk of arterial or venous thrombotic diseases; who have or have had breast cancer or other estrogen- or progestin-sensitive cancer; who have liver tumors, acute hepatitis, severe cirrhosis, undiagnosed abnormal uterine bleeding, or hypersensitivity to any ingredients in ANNOVERA; who use certain Hepatitis C drug combinations; or who are pregnant or breastfeeding.
Risks from use of a CHC, like ANNOVERA, particularly in females with any condition listed above, include venous thrombotic events; cardiovascular events and cerebrovascular events such as stroke and myocardial infarction; liver disease; elevated liver enzymes with concomitant Hepatitis C treatment; hypertension; carbohydrate and lipid metabolic effects; headache; bleeding irregularities and amenorrhea.
ANNOVERA does not protect against HIV-infection (AIDS) and other sexually transmitted infections.
