DELCATH REPORTS SECOND QUARTER 2012 FINANCIAL RESULTS AND HIGHLIGHTS
RECENT ACCOMPLISHMENTS
Conference Call and Webcast Today at 8:30 a.m. ET
2012 Delcath Systems (NASDAQ: DCTH) today announced financial results and highlights for its second quarter 2012 ended June 30, 2012 and recent corporate accomplishments.
Highlights for the second quarter 2012 and recent weeks include:
During the second quarter, we made important progress with the European launch of CHEMOSAT, and generated our first
product revenue in the Company s history, said Eamonn P. Hobbs, President and CEO of Delcath. We have now signed agreements with 13 leading European Union cancer centers, exceeding our original expectations, and intend to sign
additional centers in the coming months. Our medical science liaisons are in the field in our seven target markets educating oncologists on the potential of the CHEMOSAT treatment for their patients with liver dominant disease. To date, patients
afflicted with liver metastases from five different types of cancer have been treated with CHEMOSAT. During the remainder of the year, our commercial focus in Europe will be to continue to bring clinical centers on line while we work with referring
physicians to expand clinical adoption of the CHEMOSAT system as an important therapeutic option for these patients.
In the U.S., our New Drug Application (NDA) is on schedule and we expect to submit the file to the FDA
by mid-August, continued Mr. Hobbs. Our amendments to our Investigational New Drug (IND) application to include Generation 2 in our Expanded Access Program and all future clinical trials and compassionate use cases were accepted by
the FDA. Additionally, after consultation with the FDA, we have agreed to include the addition of Generation 2 in our NDA submission as a technical change to the Chemistry, Manufacturing, and Control module.
For the three months ended June 30, 2012, Delcath s operating loss was $15.4 million, which included approximately $1.0 million in non-cash
stock-based compensation expense. Operating loss for the three months ended June 30, 2011 was $10.5 million, which included approximately $1.2 million in non-cash stock-based compensation expense. Selling, general and administrative (SG&A)
expenses were $7.2 million for the second quarter of 2012, compared to $5.2 million for the same period in 2011. The increase was primarily due to an increase in sales, marketing and operational support staff in the EU. Research and development
(R&D) expenses were $8.2 million for the second quarter of 2012, compared to $5.2 million for the same period in 2011. The increase was primarily due to global regulatory efforts including continued preparation of the NDA submission to the FDA
and the training and deployment of third party medical science liaisons.
At June 30, 2012, cash, cash equivalents and certificates of
deposit were $29.3 million, compared to $30.8 million at December 31, 2011. Gross cash spend in the second quarter 2012 was $14.2 million, as compared to $8.2 million in the same period in the prior year. The increase was primarily driven by
NDA submission related costs and staff increases in various functions to support EU commercialization. Average monthly operating gross spend was $4.7 million in the second quarter, a decrease from $4.9 million in the first quarter of 2012. Following
the anticipated NDA submission, Delcath expects average monthly cash spend to decrease to between $3 million to $4 million for the fourth quarter of 2012.

About Delcath Systems
Delcath Systems, Inc. is a specialty pharmaceutical and medical device company focused on oncology.
Delcath s proprietary system for chemosaturation is designed to administer high dose chemotherapy and other therapeutic agents to diseased organs or regions of the body, while controlling the systemic exposure of those agents. The
Company s initial focus is on the treatment of primary and metastatic liver cancers. In 2010, Delcath announced that its randomized Phase III clinical trial for patients with metastatic melanoma in the liver had successfully achieved the
study s primary endpoint of extended hepatic progression-free survival. The Company also completed a multi-arm Phase II trial to treat other liver cancers. The Company obtained authorization to affix a CE Mark for the Delcath Hepatic CHEMOSAT delivery system in April 2011 and for the second generation hemofiltration cartridge for CHEMOSAT in April 2012. The
right to affix the CE mark allows the
Company to market and sell the CHEMOSAT system in Europe. The Company has not yet received FDA approval for commercial sale of its system in the United States. The Company continues with the
preparation of its NDA submission and intends to seek FDA approval for commercial sale of its chemosaturation system with melphalan. For more information, please visit the Company s website at www.delcath.com.
