First Quarter & Recent Highlights
First Quarter 2020 Revenue Performance
For the quarter ended March 31,
2020, net product revenue was $12.3 million compared to $15.9 million for the prior quarter.

Net product revenue for the quarter
was significantly affected by the COVID-19 pandemic for all product sales. Though ANNOVERA was commercially launched in early March
of 2020, the Company subsequently paused the launch due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Net product revenue of $12.3 million for the
quarter ended March 31, 2020 included a slight increase in IMVEXXY revenue offset by a decrease in net revenues for ANNOVERA, BIJUVA,
and prenatal vitamins. This net product revenue was comprised of sales of IMVEXXY of $6.4 million, BIJUVA of $1.1 million, ANNOVERA
of $2.3 million, and prenatal vitamins of $2.5 million. The decrease in ANNOVERA net revenue was due to the decline in unit sales,
which was largely due to the paused launch in March 2020 as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. The decrease in BIJUVA net revenue
was due primarily to the decrease in revenue per unit while the decrease in net revenue related to the Company's prenatal
vitamins was due to a decline in units sold when compared to the quarter ended December 31, 2019.
Net revenue for IMVEXXY and BIJUVA
has been greatly affected by the Company's co-pay assistance programs introduced to provide products at a reasonable cost
regardless of insurance coverage. The Company expects net product revenue to improve as commercial and Medicare payor coverage
increases, and the plans complete the process needed to adjudicate IMVEXXY, BIJUVA, and ANNOVERA prescriptions at pharmacies.
Expense, EPS and Related Information
Research and Development (R&D) expenses
for the first quarter of 2020 were $3.3 million compared with $4.4 million for the prior quarter. R&D expenditures have been
reduced as the Company refocused resources towards launching its approved drugs. Though the Company continued to deploy adequate
resources to develop its drug pipeline, continue stability testing and validation on its drugs, develop and validate secondary
manufacturers, prepare regulatory submissions, and work with regulatory authorities on existing submissions, the Company is committed
to refocusing resources to complete the launch of ANNOVERA and continue the commercialization of its other FDA approved products.
SG&A expenses increased to $57.0 million
for the first quarter of 2020 compared with $52.7 million for the prior quarter. The increase in SG&A expenses for first quarter
2020 was primarily a result of higher expenses associated with sales and marketing efforts to support the significant initiatives
related to the launch of ANNOVERA in March 2020, which was subsequently paused as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Additionally
these higher expenses related to the continued commercialization of BIJUVA and IMVEXXY, which was also pre-empted by the COVID-19
pandemic. In the case of all products the increased costs related to advertising expenses and spend on consumer media while certain
one-time launch expenses related to the paused launch of ANNOVERA were also incurred. Near the end of the quarter, the Company
pulled back on a large portion of the marketing spend due to COVID-19, which will result in reduced costs in the second quarter
that will continue to play out in subsequent quarters.
Human resources costs, including salaries,
benefits and taxes, for the three months ended March 31, 2020 decreased compared to the quarter ended December 31, 2019. Other
operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2020 remained flat, when compared to the three months ended December 31,
2019, due to the Company's effort to focus spend on commercialization of its products. The Company expects total operating
costs to be significantly reduced for the remainder of the year.
Net loss for the first quarter of 2020 increased
to $56.8 million, or $0.21 per basic and diluted share, compared with $49.4 million, or $0.19 per basic and diluted share, for
the fourth quarter of 2019.
As of March 31, 2020, the Company's cash
on hand totaled $170.1 million, compared with approximately $160.8 million at December 31, 2019.
Total outstanding debt, net of issuance costs,
was approximately $243.4 million as of March 31, 2020 compared to $194.6 million as of December 31, 2019. The change is due to
the drawdown of the $50 million tranche for meeting the fourth quarter 2019 revenue draw trigger.
