ThermoGenesis Holdings Announces Financial Results for the First Quarter Ended March 31, 2021 and Provides Corporate Update
RANCHO CORDOVA, Calif., May 13, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- ThermoGenesis Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: THMO), a market leader in automated cell processing tools and services in the cell and gene therapy field, today reported financial and operating results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2021 and provided a corporate strategic update.
First Quarter Achievements:
- On February 3, 2021, the Company announced that it completed the development process for its new PXP®-LAVARE System and submitted a Letter to File with an updated device listing to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The GMP compliant PXP-LAVARE allows for fast, automated, and reliable cell washing. It is an optional cell reformulation accessory designed for use along with the PXP®-1000 System, a 510(k) Class II medical device designed for isolating various cellular components from blood.
- On February 17, 2021, the Company began its 35th year of operation and announced the alignment of its future corporate strategy by offering cell processing systems and services to meet the large-scale manufacturing needs for the expanding number of cell and gene therapies anticipated to be developed over the next decade, including CAR-T cell therapy.
"Our continued commitment to develop and improve upon our broad line of automated tools for the cell and gene therapy field was exemplified by the first quarter launch of the FDA registered 510(k) device, PXP-LAVARE System," stated Chris Xu, Ph.D., Chief Executive Officer of ThermoGenesis. "This GMP compliant, optional cell reformation accessory, designed for use along with the PXP-1000 System, is an important addition to our full suite of novel, highly efficient cell processing systems, designed to help meet the critical needs of the emerging and promising new field of cell and gene therapy."
Dr. Xu continued, "Cell and gene therapies have become one of the fastest growing sectors in medicine, with over 1,000 clinical trials currently underway in CAR-T cell therapy alone. There is a significant unmet need for manufacturing of these therapies due to both the high cost and limited global capacity. Our high efficiency, semi-automated CAR-TXpress™ platform can potentially reduce the manufacturing costs associated with CAR-T and other cell and gene therapies by up to 70%. With this in mind, we are committed to leveraging our unique and proprietary CAR-TXpress platform to transition from a device-only company to one focused on providing cell-based contract development and manufacturing (CDMO) services."
Jeff Cauble, Chief Financial Officer of ThermoGenesis, added, "Although our revenues remain affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, recently we have seen an increase in inquiries for orders. We ended the first quarter with $10 million cash on hand, which is a 75% increase over the same period last year and strengthens the Company's financial position."
Financial Results for the Quarter Ended March 31, 2021
Net revenues. Net revenues for the quarter ended March 31, 2021 were $1.5 million compared to $3.2 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2020, a decrease of $1.7 million or 53%. The decrease was driven by AXP® disposable sales, which declined by $1.9 million with approximately 900 fewer cases sold in the first quarter of 2021 as compared to 2020. The primary driver of the decrease was the COVID-19 pandemic which has had a significant impact on the Company's sales since it began over a year ago. As the pandemic has begun to subside in the first quarter of 2021, management is hopeful that the industry will start to turn around in the second quarter. Inquiries for orders increased in March and the Company expects revenue to rebound in the second quarter and return to pre-pandemic levels by the end of 2021. The decrease in net revenue for the quarter was offset by approximately $0.3 million more in BioArchive® sales, primarily due to increased service revenue in the first quarter of 2021 as compared to 2020.
Gross profit. Gross profit was $0.7 million, or 47% of net revenues, for the quarter ended March 31, 2021 compared to $1.5 million, or 47% of net revenues, for the quarter ended March 31, 2020, a decrease of $0.8 million. The decrease was driven by the decline in AXP® disposables sold, resulting in approximately $1.1 million less gross profit. This decrease was offset by approximately $0.3 million more in BioArchive service revenue and approximately $50,000 more in CAR-TXpress revenue in the quarter ended March 31, 2021 as compared to the first quarter of 2020.
Selling, general and administrative expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses were $2.0 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2021, as compared to $2.1 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2020, a decrease of $0.1 million or 5%. The decrease was driven by the absence in the first quarter of 2021 of legal and other expenses related to the Mavericks lawsuit incurred in the quarter ended March 31,2020, of approximately $0.2 million and reduced travel expenses of approximately $60,000 as compared to the first quarter of 2020. These decreases were offset by increased stock compensation expense of $164,000 during the current quarter.
Research and development expenses. Research and development expenses were $0.4 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2021, compared to $0.6 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2020, a decrease of $0.2 million or 38%. The decrease was driven by lower expenses for salaries and benefits of approximately $0.2 million in the quarter ended March 31, 2021.
Interest Expense. Interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2021 was $1.5 million, as compared to $3.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020, a decrease of $2.0 million or 57%. The decrease was driven by the accelerated expense of the unamortized debt discount of $2.5 million for the beneficial conversion feature associated with the portions of the Revolving Credit Agreement with Boyalife Asset Holding II, Inc. which were converted during the first quarter of 2020. The decrease was offset by approximately $0.5 million more in debt discount amortization and interest expense related to the additional draw down from the Loan completed by the Company in April 2020.
Net loss. For the quarter ended March 31, 2021, the Company reported a comprehensive loss attributable to common stockholders of $2.4 million, or ($0.21) per share, based on approximately 11.4 million weighted average basic and diluted common shares outstanding. This compares to a comprehensive net loss of $4.6 million, or ($1.11) per share, based on approximately 4.1 million weighted average basic and diluted common shares outstanding for the quarter ended March 31, 2020.
Adjusted EBITDA. In addition to the results reported under US GAAP, the Company also uses a non-GAAP measure, Adjusted EBITDA, to evaluate operating performance and to facilitate the comparison of our historical results and trends. The Company uses the metric to determine operational cash flow. Adjusted EBITDA loss for the quarter ended March 31, 2021 was $1.2 million, as compared to a loss of $0.9 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2020, an increase of $0.3 million or 31%. The increase in the adjusted EBITDA loss was due to the decrease of $0.8 million in gross profit driven by lower AXP disposable sales, offset by the $0.1 million decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses, the $0.2 million decrease in research and development expenses and lower stock compensation expense in the quarter ended March 31, 2021 of $0.2 million as compared to the first quarter of 2020.
Liquidity and Capital Resources. At March 31, 2021, the Company had cash and cash equivalents totaling $10.0 million, compared with $7.2 million at December 31, 2020. Working capital was to $6.4 million at March 31, 2021 as compared to $9.2 million at December 31, 2020.
