WATERTOWN, Mass., August 4, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- EyePoint Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ: EYPT), a pharmaceutical company committed to developing and commercializing therapeutics to help improve the lives of patients with serious eye disorders, today announced financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2021 and highlighted recent corporate developments.
"We made significant progress in Q2 with our Phase 1 DAVIO trial for EYP-1901 and we substantially grew our net product revenue to $8.7M, a 136% increase vs Q2 2020. Most importantly, we continue to seamlessly execute our Phase 1 DAVIO trial and have achieved several important milestones, starting with the dosing of the first patient in January, the completion of enrollment in May, and our announcement of positive 30-day safety data in July. We remain on track and look forward to providing top line six-month interim safety and efficacy data in the fourth quarter of this year," said Nancy Lurker, Chief Executive Officer of EyePoint Pharmaceuticals.
Ms. Lurker continued, "Additionally, we are pleased that customer demand for our commercial products, DEXYCU and YUTIQ has continued to grow this quarter with DEXYCU setting an all-time high of approximately 10,900 units, a 404% increase from Q2 2020. This momentum has driven year-to-date net product revenues for both products significantly ahead of 2020 and we continue to see solid customer demand for both products into the third quarter."
Commercial Performance in Second Quarter 2021
Review of Results for the Second Quarter ended June 30, 2021
For the quarter ended June 30, 2021, total net revenue was $9.0 million compared to $4.1 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2020. Net product revenue for the quarter was $8.7 million, compared to net product revenues for the quarter ended June 30, 2020 of $3.7 million.
Net revenue from royalties and collaborations for the quarter ended June 30, 2021 totaled $0.3 million compared to $0.4 million in the corresponding period in 2020.
Operating expenses for the quarter ended June 30, 2021 totaled $20.0 million versus $15.3 million in the prior year period. This increase was primarily due to a $2.3 million increase in R&D expense, a $1.4 million increase in cost of sales, a $0.4 million increase in G&A expense, and a $0.6 million increase in sales and marketing expense. Non-operating income, net, totaled $1.0 million and net loss was $10.0 million, or ($0.35) per share, compared to a net loss of $13.0 million, or ($1.04) per share, for the prior year period.
Cash and cash equivalents at June 30, 2021 totaled $127.6 million compared to $44.9 million at December 31, 2020.
We expect the cash on hand at June 30, 2021 and expected net cash inflows from our product sales will enable us to fund our current and planned operations through the end of 2022.

EYP-1901 is a potential twice-yearly sustained delivery intravitreal anti-VEGF treatment for wet age-related macular degeneration. EYP-1901 leverages a bioerodible formulation of EyePoint's proprietary Durasert sustained release technology with vorolanib, a tyrosine kinase inhibitor. Vorolanib provided clear efficacy signals in two prior human trials in wet AMD as an orally delivered therapy with no significant ocular adverse events. EYP-1901 is currently in a Phase 1 clinical trial initially targeting treatment of wet AMD, with the potential for additional indications in diabetic retinopathy and retinal vein occlusion.
