WINNIPEG, MB, Aug. 11, 2020 /CNW/ - Medicure Inc. ("Medicure" or the "Company") (TSXV: MPH) (OTC: MCUJF), a cardiovascular pharmaceutical company, today reported its results from operations for the quarter ended June 30, 2020.
Quarter Ended June 30, 2020 Highlights:
- Net income for the quarter ended June 30, 2020 was $19,000 compared to net loss of $957,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2019; and
- Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA^1^) for the quarter ended June 30, 2020 was $263,000 compared to adjusted EBITDA of $103,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2019; and
- Recorded total net revenue from the sale of products of $2.7 million during the quarter ended June 30, 2020 compared to $6.3 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2019;
- Recorded total net revenue from the sale of AGGRASTAT^®^ of $2.6 million during the quarter ended June 30, 2020 compared to $6.2 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2019.
Financial Results
Net revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2020 were $2.7 million compared to $6.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019. Net revenues from AGGRASTAT^®^ for the three months ended June 30, 2020 were $2.6 million compared to $6.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019. ZYPITAMAG^TM^ contributed $103,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2020 compared to $9,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2019. Additionally, SNP, which was first sold commercially during 2020, contributed $17,000, during the three months ended June 30, 2020. The Company did not earn any revenues from ReDS^TM^during the three months ended June 30, 2020 compared to net revenue of $51,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2019.
Net revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2020 were $5.7 million compared to $11.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. Net revenues from AGGRASTAT^®^ for the six months ended June 30, 2020 were $5.3 million compared to $11.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. ZYPITAMAG^TM^ contributed $266,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to $9,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2019. Additionally, SNP, which was first sold commercially during 2020, contributed $48,000, during the six months ended June 30, 2020. Revenues from ReDS^TM^for the six months ended June 30, 2020 totaled $89,000 compared to net revenue of $154,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2019.
There was a significant decrease in the volume of the AGGRASTAT^®^ sold in Q2 2020 compared to Q2 2019, due mainly to COVID-19. The Company is beginning to see increases in demand for ZYPITAMAG^TM^ and expects growth in ZYPITAMAG^TM^ revenues going forward. The Company continues to show strong patient market share with AGGRASTAT^®^, however, the market share is offset by the lower discounted prices for AGGRASTAT^®^in the first half of 2020.
Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended June 30, 2020 was $263,000 compared to $103,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2019. The increase in adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended June 30, 2020 is the result of lower selling and research and development expenses, partially offset by lower revenues during the three months ended June 30, 2020 when compared to the same period in 2019.
Adjusted EBITDA for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was negative $1.0 million compared to negative $1.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The improvement in adjusted EBITDA for the six months ended June 30, 2020 is the result of lower selling and research and development expenses, partially offset by lower revenues during the six months ended June 30, 2020 when compared to the same period in 2019.
During the three months ended June 30, 2020, the Company recorded $325,000 in government assistance resulting from the Canada Emergency Wage Subsidy. The funding has been recorded as a reduction of the related salary expenditures with $248,000 recorded within selling expenses, $43,000 recorded within general and administrative expenses and $34,000 recorded with research and development expenses. Additionally, during the three months ended June 30, 2020, the Company recorded a recovery totaling $677,000 within research and development expenses pertaining to fees previously paid to the United States Food and Drug Administration ("FDA") for which the FDA has subsequently granted a waiver.
Net income for the three months ended June 30, 2020 was $19,000 or $0.00 per share compared to net loss of $957,000 or $0.06 per share for the three months ended June 30, 2019. The change in the net income for the three months ended June 30, 2020 is the result of lower selling and research and development expenses and a gain on foreign exchange, partially offset by lower revenues experienced during the three months ended June 30, 2020 when compared to the three months ended June 30, 2019.
Net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was $1.4 million or $0.13 per share compared to $3.7 million or $0.24 per share for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The change in the net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2020 is the result of lower selling and research and development expenses and a gain on foreign exchange, partially offset by lower revenues and higher cost of goods sold, primarily from increased amortization of intangible assets, experienced during the six months ended June 30, 2020 when compared to the six months ended June 30, 2019.
At June 30, 2020, the Company had unrestricted cash totaling $11.2 million down from the $13.0 million of unrestricted cash held as of December 31, 2019. Cash flows used in operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2020 totaled $1.8 million compared to $7.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019.
All amounts referenced herein are in Canadian dollars unless otherwise noted.
Notes
^(1)^ The Company defines EBITDA as "earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and other income or expense" and Adjusted EBITDA as "EBITDA adjusted for non-cash and non-recurring items". The terms "EBITDA" and "Adjusted EBITDA", as it relates to the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 results prepared using IFRS, do not have any standardized meaning according to IFRS. It is therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies.
