五星体育直播 Reports Second Quarter 2018 Financial Results

Total revenues increase 31% to $13.5 million driven by higher R&D revenue

Phase 1a clinical trial for CDX-6114 initiated

Conference call begins at 4:30 p.m. Eastern time today

REDWOOD CITY, Calif. (August 8, 2018) - 五星体育直播 (NASDAQ: CDXS), a leading protein engineering company, announces financial results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 and provides a business update.

鈥淚鈥檓 proud of our outstanding financial and operating performance featuring year-over-year revenue growth of 31% for the second quarter of 2018 and 51% for the first half of 2018,鈥 said 五星体育直播 President and CEO John Nicols. 鈥淕rowth throughout the year has been driven by higher R&D revenue that includes significant contributions from Tate & Lyle and Nestl茅 Health Science. By capitalizing on the financial leverage in our business model, we are moving closer toward our goal of profitability.

鈥淚鈥檓 pleased to report that Tate & Lyle recently announced the commercialization of our second food ingredient project. For that partnership, 五星体育直播 engineered a suite of enzymes that enables Tate & Lyle鈥檚 novel bioconversion route for manufacture of their newly launched zero-calorie, 鈥楾ASTEVA M Stevia Sweetener.鈥 We earned R&D milestone payments during the second quarter, and in July, our enzymes received expert panel approval for 五星体育直播 to self-affirm the enzymes as GRAS (generally recognized as safe). This is exciting progress for one of the largest product opportunities in our Performance Enzymes pipeline,鈥 he added.

鈥淚n addition, we have completed dosing three of the four cohorts in our first-in-human, dose-escalation Phase 1a clinical trial in healthy volunteers with our oral enzyme therapeutic candidate CDX-6114 for the treatment of phenylketonuria, or PKU, 鈥 said Nicols. 鈥淥ur progress puts us on track to report top-line results in the fourth quarter of this year.

Second Quarter Financial Highlights
五星体育直播 is reporting two business segments: the Performance Enzymes segment, which consists of its protein catalyst and enzyme product and service offerings with a focus on pharmaceutical, food, molecular diagnostics and other industrial markets; and the Novel Biotherapeutics discovery and development segment.

Total revenues for the second quarter of 2018 were $13.5 million, up 31% from $10.3 million for the second quarter of 2017. Product revenue for the second quarter of 2018 was $3.7 million, compared with $6.6 million for the prior-year period, with the decline primarily due to the timing of customer demand for enzymes. Research and development (R&D) revenue for the second quarter of 2018 was $9.8 million, up 162% from $3.7 million for the second quarter of 2017, with the increase mainly attributable to collaborations with Tate & Lyle and Nestl茅 Health Science. R&D revenue for the second quarter of 2018 included $7.4 million from the Performance Enzymes segment and $2.4 million from the Novel Biotherapeutics segment. The company did not record R&D revenue from the Novel Biotherapeutics segment in the second quarter of 2017.

Gross margin on product revenue for the second quarter of 2018 was 30%, compared with 43% for the second quarter of 2017, with the decrease due to product mix.

R&D expenses were $7.4 million for the second quarter of 2018, compared with $6.3 million for the second quarter of 2017, with the increase primarily due to costs associated with higher headcount. R&D expenses for the second quarter of 2018 included $4.7 million from the Performance Enzymes segment and $2.4 million from the Novel Biotherapeutics segment. R&D expenses for the second quarter of 2017 included $4.0 million from the Performance Enzymes segment and $2.1 million from the Novel Biotherapeutics segment.

Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses for the second quarter of 2018 were $7.4 million, compared with $6.5 million for the second quarter of 2017, with the increase due primarily to higher recruiting costs and stock-based compensation expenses. SG&A expenses for the second quarter of 2018 included $1.7 million from the Performance Enzymes segment, $0.3 million from the Novel Biotherapeutics segment and $5.4 million in corporate overhead. The company did not record SG&A expenses from the Novel Biotherapeutics segment in the second quarter of 2017.

The net loss for the second quarter of 2018 was $3.7 million, or $0.07 per share, compared with a net loss for the second quarter of 2017 of $6.3 million, or $0.13 per share. Non-GAAP net loss for the second quarter of 2018 was $1.0 million, or $0.02 per share, compared with a non-GAAP net loss for the second quarter of 2017 of $4.3 million, or $0.09 per share. A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP measures is provided below.

Year-to-date Financial Results
Total revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2018 were $27.6 million, up 51% from $18.3 million for the first six months of 2017, and included $9.9 million in product sales and $17.7 million in R&D revenue. R&D revenue for the first six months of 2018 included $12.0 million from the Performance Enzymes segment and $5.7 million from the Novel Biotherapeutics segment.

Gross margin on product sales for the first six months of 2018 was 35%, compared with 44% for the first six months of 2017, with the decrease due to product mix.

R&D expenses for the first six months of 2018 were $14.5 million, compared with $12.2 million for the first six months of 2017, with the increase primarily due to higher headcount, partially offset by a decrease in outside services. R&D expenses for the first half of 2018 included $9.8 million from the Performance Enzymes segment and $4.4 million from the Novel Biotherapeutics segment. R&D expenses for the first half of 2017 included $8.2 million from the Performance Enzymes segment and $3.7 million from the Novel Biotherapeutics segment.

SG&A expenses for the first six months of 2018 were $15.1 million, compared with $13.2 million for the first six months of 2017, with the increase due to higher headcount, recruiting costs and stock-compensation expenses. SG&A expenses for the first half of 2018 included $3.8 million from the Performance Enzymes segment, $0.5 million from the Novel Biotherapeutics segment and $10.8 million in corporate overhead. The company did not record SG&A expenses from the Novel Biotherapeutics segment in the first half of 2017.

The net loss for the first six months of 2018 was $8.4 million, or $0.17 per share, compared with a net loss for the first six months of 2017 of $13.7 million, or $0.31 per share. Non-GAAP net loss for the first six months of 2018 was $3.5 million, or $0.07 per share, compared with non-GAAP net loss for the first six months of 2017 of $9.8 million, or $0.22 per share.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

On a non-GAAP basis, financial measures exclude non-cash items such as depreciation expense and stock-based compensation expense. Non-GAAP financial measures presented are non-GAAP net loss, non-GAAP net loss per share (basic and diluted) and non-GAAP operating expenses, including non-GAAP research and development expense and non-GAAP selling, general and administrative expense.

五星体育直播 management uses these non-GAAP financial measures to monitor and evaluate the Company鈥檚 operating results and trends on an ongoing basis, and internally for operating, budgeting and financial planning purposes. 五星体育直播 management believes the non-GAAP information is useful for investors by offering them the ability to identify trends in what management considers to be 五星体育直播鈥 core operating results and to better understand how management evaluates the business. These non-GAAP measures have limitations, however, because they do not include all expenses that affect 五星体育直播. These non-GAAP financial measures are not prepared in accordance with, and should not be considered in isolation of, or as an alternative to, measurements required by GAAP, and therefore these non-GAAP results should only be used for evaluation in conjunction with the corresponding GAAP measures. A description of the non-GAAP calculations and reconciliation to comparable GAAP financial measures is provided in the accompanying table entitled 鈥淩econciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measures.鈥

These non-GAAP financial measures exclude the following items:
(a) Depreciation expense: we provide non-GAAP information which excludes depreciation expense related to the depreciation of property and equipment. We believe that eliminating this expense from our non-GAAP measures is useful to investors, because the acquisition of property and equipment, and the corresponding depreciation expense, can be inconsistent in amount and can vary from period to period.
(b) Stock-based compensation: we provide non-GAAP information which excludes expenses for stock-based compensation. We believe the exclusion of this item allows for financial results that are more indicative of our operations. We also believe that the exclusion of stock-based compensation expense provides for a better comparison of 五星体育直播' operating results to prior periods as the calculations of stock-based compensation vary from period to period and company to company due to different valuation methodologies, subjective assumptions and the variety of award types.
