Trovagene, Inc. Announces Third Quarter 2014 Financial Results

Trovagene, Inc. Announces Third Quarter 2014 Financial Results

SAN DIEGO, CA November 6, 2014 Trovagene, Inc. (NASDAQ: TROV), a developer of cell-free molecular diagnostics, today reported its financial results for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2014.

The clinical utility of Trovagene s precision cancer monitoring technology continues to gain recognition within the medical community, as we begin to commercialize our technology, said Antonius Schuh, Ph.D., chief executive officer of Trovagene. Recently published data in the journal, Cancer Discovery, demonstrates that urinary cell-free DNA can outperform tissue biopsy for the detection of the BRAF V600E mutation. As a result, with our technology, physicians now have the ability to non-invasively determine mutational status and monitor response to therapy at the molecular level over time.

Third Quarter 2014 Financial Results

For the third quarter ended September 30, 2014, Trovagene reported a net loss of $5.4 million, or $0.28 per share, as compared to a net loss of $4.4 million, or $0.25 per share, for the three months ended September 30, 2013. The increase in net loss is primarily due to an increase in operating expenses during the third quarter of 2014, as compared to the prior year comparable period.

Year to Date 2014 Financial Results

For the nine months ended September 30, 2014, Trovagene reported a net loss of $9.7 million, or $0.51 per share, as compared to a net loss of $10.8 million, or $0.66 per share, for the nine months ended September 30, 2013. The decrease in net loss is primarily due to an increase in operating expenses offset by changes in the fair market value of derivative instruments during the first nine months of 2014, as compared to the prior year comparable period.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Trovagene had cash and cash equivalents of $31.2 million on September 30, 2014, as compared to $25.8 million on December 31, 2013. The Company secured debt financing in the amount of $15 million in June 2014.

Recent Announcements Demonstrate Continued Progress in Development Programs which Support Commercialization Efforts

Study recently published in Cancer Discovery demonstrates that urinary cell-free DNA outperforms tissue biopsy when identifying the BRAF V600E mutation in patients with histiocytic diseases.

Data presented at the Next Generation DX conference highlights the clinical utility of cell-free tumor DNA diagnostics with high sensitivity and quantitative analytical performance using Trovagene s precision cancer monitoring technology.

Clinical study results presented at the Second Annual International ECD Medical Symposium demonstrates that Trovagene s BRAF V600E assay improves determination of mutational status and allows monitoring of treatment response in patients with Erdheim-Chester disease (ECD).

Trovagene expanded its relationship with a leading cancer center including a new clinical study evaluating Trovagene s precision cancer monitoring platform in lung cancer. The study focuses on the detection and quantitative monitoring of EGFR mutations.
