MannKind Corporation Reports 2012 Third Quarter Financial Results

- Conference Call to Begin Today at 6:00 P.M. ET -

VALENCIA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--November 1, 2012--MannKind Corporation (Nasdaq: MNKD) today reported financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2012.

For the third quarter of 2012, total operating expenses were $35.5 million compared to $32.8 million for the third quarter of 2011, an increase of $2.7 million. Research and development (R&D) expenses were $25.4 million for the third quarter of 2012 compared to $23.1 million for the same quarter in 2011, an increase of $2.3 million. This 10.0% increase was primarily due to an increase of $7.0 million in clinical trial-related activities in the third quarter of 2012, offset in part by a non-recurring $4.1 million expense recorded in the third quarter of 2011 in connection with the settlement of the terminated insulin supply agreement. General and administrative (G&A) expenses were $10.1 million for the third quarter of 2012 compared to $9.6 million for the same quarter of 2011, an increase of $0.5 million. This 5.2% increase in G&A expense was primarily due to an increase in the litigation settlement accrual recorded in the third quarter of 2012.

For the first nine months of 2012, operating expenses totaled $113.5 million compared to $110.0 million in the first nine months of 2011, an increase of $3.5 million. Total R&D expenses were $76.2 million for the first nine months of 2012 compared to $79.7 million in the same period in 2011, a decrease of $3.5 million. This 4.4% decrease was primarily due to a non-recurring $16.0 million expense recorded during the first nine months of 2011 in connection with the settlement of the terminated insulin supply agreement and decreased salary-related expenses of $7.9 million resulting from the February 2011 restructuring, offset by $20.2 million in increased clinical trial-related expenses in the first nine months of 2012. G&A expenses were $37.3 million for the first nine months of 2012 as compared to $30.3 million in the same period in 2011, an increase of $7.0 million. This 23.1% increase was primarily due to the $8.6 million litigation settlement accrual recorded in the first nine months of 2012, partially offset by decreased salary-related costs as a result of the February 2011 reduction in force.

The net loss applicable to common stockholders for the third quarter of 2012 was $42.8 million, or $0.22 per share based on 190.5 million weighted average shares outstanding, compared with a net loss applicable to common stockholders of $38.4 million, or $0.31 per share based on 122.1 million weighted average shares outstanding, for the third quarter of 2011. The number of common shares outstanding at September 30, 2012 was 199,767,463.

Cash and short-term investments were $3.2 million at December 31, 2011 and $2.1 million at September 30, 2012, not including total net proceeds of $86.0 million from the underwritten public offering of common stock and warrants in October 2012.
