OpGen Announces Preliminary Unaudited Revenue for Fiscal 2021 and Provides Business Update
| · | Preliminary unaudited revenue for 2021 was approximately $4.3 million |
| · | Maintained strong balance sheet with $36.1 million cash as of December 31, 2021 and total capital raised in 2021 of $51.2 million |
| · | Conversion of all 150,000 preferred shares into 7.5 million common shares completed by investor in December 2021 |
Rockville, Md., Jan. 10, 2022 -- OpGen, Inc. (Nasdaq: OPGN, “OpGen”), a precision medicine company harnessing the power of molecular diagnostics and bioinformatics to help combat infectious disease, announced today that total preliminary unaudited revenue for OpGen in 2021 was approximately $4.3 million, compared to approximately $4.2 million in 2020. Preliminary revenue for the fourth quarter of 2021 was approximately $1.4 million compared to approximately $1.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2020. Fourth quarter revenues in 2021 were achieved despite exiting the FISH business at the beginning of 2021 which had contributed approximately $0.7 million to fourth quarter 2020 revenue. Growing revenue from Unyvero product sales in the U.S. and globally as well as growth of the Ares Genetics services and data access business were key drivers of the 2021 revenue generation. The company expects to provide fourth quarter 2021 and full year 2021 financial results during its earnings call in March 2022. OpGen’s cash position as of December 31, 2021 was approximately $36.1 million, a significant increase from $13.3 million as of December 31, 2020.
The company also announced accomplishment of the following key milestones and recent developments in the fourth quarter 2021 as well as 2022 to date:
| · | On January 1, 2022, Albert Weber joined as CFO of OpGen and Theo deVos joined as Senior Vice President of Corporate Development and Operations for Ares Genetics in the U.S. |
| · | Ares and Sandoz have extended their services frame agreement to continue collaboration in addressing AMR until January 2025 |
| · | OpGen subsidiary Ares Genetics had total fourth quarter 2021 revenue of approximately $0.8 million with about 80% of such revenues being derived from its recent strategic database access transaction providing for non-exclusive access to 1.1% of the ARESdb content |
| · | Special stockholder meeting held in December 2021 where stockholders approved all agenda items, including an increase in the company’s authorized shares of common stock |
| · | Closed a $15 million registered direct preferred stock financing transaction with a single U.S. healthcare institutional investor |
| · | Following the increase in the company’s authorized shares of common stock, the institutional investor in the company’s recent preferred stock financing converted all of its 150,000 shares of preferred stock into 7.5 million shares of common stock in December 2021. This resulted in total shares outstanding, as of December 31, 2021, of approximately 46.5 million shares of common stock with no preferred stock remaining outstanding |
| · | The company’s Chinese partner BCB has informed us that all three clinical trial sites required for the supplementary clinical study in China for the Unyvero pneumonia cartridge have recently received their respective IRB approvals. The company expects the study, which is entirely managed and executed under the control of its partners at BCB, to start in due course |
| · | Received full regulatory clearance for Unyvero system and several cartridges (including HPN, ITI and IAI) in Colombia and recognized the first commercial sale to Annar Dx |
Oliver Schacht, President & CEO of OpGen, commented, “We are pleased with our fourth quarter and full year 2021 preliminary results and are off to a solid start in 2022. With our much improved cash position and existing network of global partnerships, we are convinced that across our portfolio of products and services we have the potential to see them contribute significantly to our growth in the year ahead. I am especially excited about upcoming key milestones such as Chinese clinical study data and pending NMPA approval decision, our Unyvero UTI clinical trial and anticipated FDA submission, the Unyvero A30 platform development and partnering milestones and Ares Genetics’ commercial expansion in Europe as well as here in the U.S. with the recent addition of our SVP Corporate Development and Operations for Ares.” He added: “We continue our dialog with the European Investment Bank regarding the various options to structure a repayment – either in cash or in equity or a combination thereof - of the loan outstanding. The first tranche matures and is due for repayment in April 2022.”
The preliminary financial results are estimates prior to the completion of OpGen’s financial closing procedures and review procedures by its external auditors and therefore may be subject to adjustment when the actual results are available.
