Cumberland Pharmaceuticals Reports Third Quarter 2020 Financial Results & Company Update

NASHVILLE, Tenn., Nov. 10, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Cumberland Pharmaceuticals Inc. (NASDAQ: CPIX), a specialty pharmaceutical company, today is providing a company update and third quarter 2020 financial results. Net revenues from continuing operations during the quarter were $9.3 million. The company also recorded an additional $750,000 in revenue during the third quarter associated with divested product rights for two brands it is no longer distributing.

The Company's financial position included $96 million in total assets – with $27 million in cash, $48 million of total liabilities, and $48 million of shareholders' equity at the end of the quarter.

"As we move to the close of 2020, we recognize that it has been a particularly difficult year with the pandemic impacting all our daily lives," said A.J. Kazimi, Chief Executive Officer of Cumberland Pharmaceuticals. "Overall, our third quarter was quite successful, given all the challenges of operating a business in the wake of the pandemic. We were able to generate solid financial performance and advance on important initiatives."

RECENT COMPANY DEVELOPMENTS:

Vibativ®

Cumberland's Vibativ product is being used to help COVID-19 patients who develop bacterial infections in their lungs. Vibativ is a patented, FDA-approved injectable anti-infective for the treatment of certain serious bacterial infections including hospital-acquired and ventilator-associated bacterial pneumonia that can result from COVID-19, flu, and other infections. It addresses a range of Gram-positive bacterial pathogens, including those that are considered difficult-to-treat and multidrug-resistant.

RediTrex® Launch

The Company is now finalizing plans for the launch of its newly FDA-approved RediTrex product line. Cumberland will initially implement a soft launch during the fourth quarter of 2020 and intends to follow with a full commercial launch of the brand next spring. The Company believes that RediTrex will be a valuable addition to the portfolio and help further diversify and grow its business.

RediTrex is approved for patients with severe, active rheumatoid arthritis and polyarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis who have difficulty tolerating or responding to orally delivered methotrexate. It is also approved for symptomatic control of severe, recalcitrant, disabling psoriasis in adults who are not adequately responsive to other forms of therapy.

Caldolor® Clinical Manuscripts

During the third quarter, Cumberland announced a study published in the Journal of Orthopedic Trauma, evaluating the efficacy of Caldolor administration in the management of acute pain in orthopedic trauma patients. The study also measured Caldolor's ability in minimizing opioid use. This single-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study found that Caldolor (ibuprofen) Injection reduced the quantity of opioids required to manage pain after a traumatic injury with fracture. In addition, the time to first narcotic medication was longer in the Caldolor group than with hospital standard of care. Pain was also managed better in the Caldolor group compared to standard of care narcotics.

Additionally, the results of a review of nine clinical studies evaluating Caldolor was announced. The comprehensive review was published in the journal, Clinical Therapeutics, and involved over 1,000 adult patients, with over 750 receiving Caldolor and another 300 receiving placebo or a comparator medication. The data noted that the use of Caldolor improved post-surgery recovery, decreased surgical stress, and reduced the use of opioids and over-the-counter medication. The study review determined that patients given Caldolor experienced less postoperative pain and decreased opioid use. Study authors also concluded that the rapid administration and preemptive use of Caldolor should be considered in Enhanced Recovery After Surgery protocols for the management of postoperative pain including that of traumatic origin.

Revolving Credit Loan Agreement

In October 2020, Cumberland entered into a Third Amendment to the Revolving Credit Note and Fourth Amendment ("Fourth Amendment") to the Revolving Credit Loan Agreement with Pinnacle Bank (the "Pinnacle Agreement"). The original Pinnacle Agreement was dated July 31, 2017. The Fourth Amendment provides for a principal available for borrowing of up to $15 million and Cumberland has the ability to request an increase of up to an additional $5 million, upon the satisfaction of certain conditions and approval by Pinnacle Bank. If fully expanded, the Fourth Amendment would provide a maximum principal available for borrowing of up to $20 million, which was also the maximum aggregate principal available for borrowing under the previously amended Pinnacle Agreement.

The Fourth Amendment extends the maturity date of the Pinnacle Agreement through October 1, 2022.

Ifetroban Phase II Clinical Programs

Enrollment in Cumberland's clinical studies significantly slowed during 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. While enrollment of new patients was limited, the Company ensured that patients already entered into a trial continued to receive their study drug.

During the third quarter, some of Cumberland's clinical study sites reopened and resumed screening of patients for potential enrollment into the Company's studies.

Cumberland has completed a pilot Phase II study involving ifetroban in patients suffering from aspirin-exacerbated respiratory disease, a severe form of asthma. A follow-up Phase II study is currently underway for this asthma indication.

The Company is also currently evaluating ifetroban in two pilot Phase II studies in 1) patients with systemic sclerosis or scleroderma, a debilitating autoimmune disorder characterized by diffuse fibrosis of the skin and internal organs and 2) patients with cardiomyopathy associated with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy. This rare, fatal, genetic neuromuscular disease results in deterioration of the skeletal, heart and lung muscles.

Cumberland is awaiting further study results before deciding on the best path for approval for ifetroban, its first new chemical entity.

The Company provided the above adjusted supplemental financial performance measures, which are considered "non-GAAP" financial measures under applicable SEC rules and regulations. These financial measures should be considered supplemental to, and not as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP"). The definition of these supplemental measures may differ from similarly titled measures used by others.

Because these supplemental financial measures exclude the effect of items that will increase or decrease the Company's reported results of operations, management encourages investors to review the Company's consolidated financial statements and publicly filed reports in their entirety. A reconciliation of the supplemental financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures is included in the tables accompanying this release.

Cumberland's management believes these supplemental financial performance measures are important as they are used by management, along with financial measures in accordance with GAAP, to evaluate the Company's operating performance. In addition, Cumberland believes that they will be used by certain investors to measure the Company's operating results. Management believes that presenting these supplemental measures provides useful information about the Company's underlying performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that Cumberland does not believe are indicative of its core business performance or reflect long-term strategic activities. Certain of these items are not settled through cash payments and include: depreciation, amortization, share-based compensation expense and income taxes.  Cumberland utilizes its net operating loss carryforwards to pay minimal income taxes.  In addition, the use of these financial measures provides greater transparency to investors of supplemental information used by management in its financial and operational decision-making, including the evaluation of the Company's operating performance.

The Company defines these supplemental financial measures as follows:

  • Adjusted Earnings (loss): net income (loss) adjusted for the impact of income taxes, depreciation and amortization expense, share-based compensation and interest income and interest expense.

            (a) Represents the share-based compensation of Cumberland.

  • Adjusted Diluted Earnings (loss) Per Share: Adjusted Earnings (loss) divided by diluted weighted-average common shares outstanding.
