Net Loss of ($18.3) million in Q1 2022 vs. ($15.7) million in Q1 2021

 

Boston, Mass., May 5, 2022 – Radius Health, Inc. (“Radius” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: RDUS), today reported its financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2022. The Company also provided a general business update.

 

Radius CEO Kelly Martin provided the following commentary covering a variety of topics:

 

“Failure to meet the prespecified primary endpoint in the long awaited abaloparatide transdermal system pivotal trial resulted in a swift and precipitous 50+% drop in the Radius share price during the month of December. Conversely, our convertible notes, as an indicator for the credit market assessment of the Radius balance sheet, cash flows and business fundamentals, were basically unchanged in price and value during that same period.”

 

Martin added, “against this dislocation and backdrop, our approach is to ‘control what we can control’ and focus on advancing the Radius business on behalf of shareholders, creditors, patients and employees.”

 

“To that end, we are working closely with our partner – the Menarini Group – on all aspects of elacestrant. Recent competitor trial failures in the SERD space may expand the potential commercial opportunity – and subsequent value – for the asset if approved. Our financial participation is realized through achievement of both milestones and royalties and, importantly, incorporates all indications, geographies and any combination therapies following the monotherapy data and potential approval. As announced in February, we will return 100% of the value generated by elacestrant to our capital providers – both creditors as well as shareholders.”

 

“For RAD011, we are progressing this molecule in a deliberate and disciplined manner with a focus on specific genetically based and orphan neurological/behavioral diseases. Interest in the program – post the April R&D webcast – has been, and continues to be, noteworthy. Clear and specific patient need, little to no treatment options, pre-existing data and a concise regulatory path leading to single pivotal trial readouts in 2H 2024 underscore the characteristics of the opportunity.”

 


 

 

 

 

 

 

“Lastly, for TYMLOS we are preparing for a potential US launch for the male indication, assisting our partners Paladin Labs in Canada and Teijin Pharma in Japan for launches in their respective countries. As per our previously stated goal to ‘expand the global footprint of the asset’ we expect to finalize up to three additional geographic/partner agreements over the coming months, and plan for up to four ex-US market launches in 2023. We have also completed all necessary steps for the EU re-submission and await that decision in 2H 2022.”

 

In summary, Martin concluded, “as mentioned in our FY 2021 earnings in February, the recent market dislocation in biotechnology has been significant. We expect these challenges to continue throughout 2022. Within this environment, Radius continues to have the opportunity to differentiate itself by remaining active with the balance sheet and monitoring cash flow, managing the risk/reward dynamics of the three assets and, lastly, incorporating overall corporate timelines and potential business inflection points.”

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement our condensed consolidated financial statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP), we use the following non-GAAP financial measures in this press release: Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA per share. The Company defines adjusted EBITDA as net income before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, adjusted for the impact of certain additional non-cash and other items that management does not consider in its evaluation of ongoing performance of the Company’s core operations. These items include stock-based compensation expense and other one-time expenses. These non-GAAP financial measures exclude certain amounts or expenses from the corresponding financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP. Management believes this non-GAAP information is useful for investors, taken in conjunction with Radius’ GAAP financial statements, because it provides greater transparency and period-over-period comparability with respect to Radius’ operating performance and can enhance investors’ ability to identify operating trends in our business. Management uses these measures, among other factors, to assess and analyze operational results and trends and to make financial and operational decisions. Non-GAAP information is not prepared under a comprehensive set of accounting rules and should only be used to supplement an understanding of Radius’ operating results as reported under GAAP, not in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures are unlikely to be comparable with non-GAAP information provided by other companies. The determination of the amounts that are excluded from non-GAAP financial measures is a matter of management judgment and depends upon, among other factors, the nature of the underlying expense or income amounts. Reconciliations between these non-GAAP financial measures and the most comparable GAAP financial measures for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 are included in the tables accompanying this press release after the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

This release includes forward-looking guidance for adjusted EBITDA. The Company is not able to provide, without unreasonable effort, a reconciliation of the guidance for adjusted EBITDA to the most directly comparable GAAP measure because the Company does not currently have sufficient data to accurately estimate the variables and

individual adjustments included in the most directly comparable GAAP measure that would be necessary for such reconciliations, including (a) one-time items or other expenses that we do not believe are indicative of our ongoing operations. These adjustments are inherently variable and uncertain and depend on various factors that are beyond our control and as a result we are also unable to predict their probable significance. Therefore, because management cannot estimate on a forward-looking basis without unreasonable effort the impact these variables and individual adjustments will have on its reported results in accordance with GAAP, it is unable to provide a reconciliation of the non-GAAP measures included in its 2022 guidance.

 

About Radius

Radius is a global biopharmaceutical company focused on addressing unmet medical needs in the areas of bone health, orphan diseases, and oncology. Radius’ lead product, TYMLOS® (abaloparatide) injection, was approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of postmenopausal women with osteoporosis at high risk for fracture. The Radius clinical pipeline includes investigational abaloparatide injection for potential use in the treatment of men with osteoporosis; an investigational abaloparatide transdermal system for potential use in the treatment of postmenopausal women with osteoporosis; the investigational drug, elacestrant (RAD1901), for potential use in the treatment of hormone-receptor positive breast cancer out-licensed to Menarini Group; and the investigational drug RAD011, a synthetic cannabidiol oral solution with potential utilization in multiple neuro-endocrine, neurodevelopmental, or neuropsychiatric disease areas, initially targeting Prader-Willi syndrome, Angelman syndrome, and infantile spasms.

 

About TYMLOS (abaloparatide) injection
TYMLOS (abaloparatide) injection was approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of postmenopausal women with osteoporosis at high risk for fracture defined as history of osteoporotic fracture, multiple risk factors for fracture, or patients who have failed or are intolerant to other available osteoporosis therapy.

 

About Elacestrant (RAD1901) and EMERALD Phase 3 Study

Elacestrant is a selective estrogen receptor degrader (SERD), out-licensed to Menarini Group, which is being evaluated for potential use as a once daily oral treatment in patients with ER+/ HER2- advanced breast cancer. Studies completed prior to EMERALD indicated that the compound has the potential for use as a single agent or in combination with other therapies for the treatment of breast cancer. The EMERALD Phase 3 trial was a randomized, open label, active-controlled study evaluating elacestrant as second- or third-line monotherapy in ER+/HER2- advanced/metastatic breast cancer patients. The study enrolled 466 patients who had received prior treatment with one or two lines of endocrine therapy, including a cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) 4/6 inhibitor. Patients in the study were randomized to receive either elacestrant or the investigator’s choice of an approved hormonal agent. The primary endpoint of the study was progression-free survival (PFS) in the overall patient population and in patients with estrogen receptor 1 gene (ESR1) mutations. Secondary endpoints included evaluation of overall survival (OS), objective response rate (ORR), and duration of response (DOR).

 

About RAD011

Investigational drug RAD011 is a pharmaceutical-grade synthetic cannabidiol oral solution, manufactured utilizing traditional pharmaceutical manufacturing processes. The product has purity specifications that meet standardized regulatory and quality control requirements and, compared to the process of developing a plant-derived product, the synthetic manufacturing process usually enables increased consistency and greater precision in the product supply. RAD011 has been assessed in over 125 patients across multiple indications and has potential utilization in multiple neuro-endocrine, neurodevelopmental, or neuropsychiatric disease areas. Radius plans to study RAD011 in patients with Angelman syndrome, Prader-Willi syndrome, and infantile spasms.
