OraSure Announces 2010 Second Quarter Financial Results
- OraSure Also Provides Update on OraQuick® HIV Shelf Life Extension and
OraQuick® HCV Clinical Program -
BETHLEHEM, PA August 4, 2010 (Globe Newswire) OraSure Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: OSUR), a market leader in oral fluid diagnostics, today announced revenues of $19.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010, compared to $17.3 million recorded for the three months ended June 30, 2009.
Revenues in the current quarter reflect increases for each of the Companys product lines and include a $1.0 million milestone payment received under the terms of a collaboration agreement for the development and promotion of the Companys OraQuick® rapid HCV test in international markets. Second quarter 2009 revenues reflect the impact of a manufacturing issue related to the Companys OraQuick® rapid HIV- 1/2 antibody test during that quarter, which resulted in a $2.2 million back log of orders as of June 30, 2009.
The Company recorded a net loss of $553,000, or $0.01 per share, for the second quarter of 2010, compared to a net loss of $5.2 million, or $0.11 per share, for the second quarter of 2009. Second quarter 2009 results included a $3.0 million pre-tax impairment charge related to the net book value of payments previously capitalized under an HCV patent license agreement.
Our financial performance exceeded our guidance for the second quarter, with increased sales across all product lines and the early receipt of an HCV milestone payment from Merck, said Douglas A. Michels, President and CEO of OraSure Technologies. We also received several important regulatory approvals during the quarter for our OraQuick ADVANCE® HIV and OraQuick® HCV tests. In addition, a pre-market approval supplement was recently sent to the FDA seeking approval of our OraQuick® HCV test with fingerstick whole blood and we are working to address recent FDA comments with respect to an oral fluid claim for the
OraQuick® HCV Test. During the remainder of the year, we intend to continue advancing our OraQuick® HCV and HIV OTC clinical programs.
For the six months ended June 30, 2010, the Company recorded revenues of $37.2 million, an increase of 8% when compared to revenues of $34.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009. The Company recorded a net loss of $2.7 million, or $0.06 per share, for the six months ended June 30, 2010, compared to a net loss of $6.8 million, or $0.15 per share, for the six months ended June 30, 2009. The net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2009 includes the $3.0 million pre-tax impairment charge described above.
Gross margin in the second quarter of 2010 was 63%, compared to 57% in the second quarter of 2009. For the first six months of 2010, gross margin was also 63%, compared to 60% in the first half of 2009. Gross margin for the current quarter and six month periods benefited from the $1.0 million HCV milestone payment, a more favorable product revenue mix and an improvement in scrap and spoilage levels when compared to 2009.
Operating expenses for the second quarter of 2010 decreased to $12.7 million, from $15.2 million in the comparable period in 2009. This decrease was primarily attributable to the $3.0 million impairment charge recorded in the second quarter of 2009 and a decrease in general and administrative costs, partially offset by higher research and development and sales and marketing expenses. Operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2010 were $26.3 million, compared to $28.0 million for the comparable period in 2009. Increases in research and development and sales and marketing expenses for the first six months of 2010 were partially offset by a decrease in general and administrative expense and the absence of the $3.0 million impairment charge recorded in the first half of 2009.
Cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments totaled $74.5 million and working capital was $77.0 million at June 30, 2010, compared to $79.7 million and $89.4 million, respectively, at December 31, 2009. Working capital declined due to the reclassification of the Companys remaining unpaid principal balance of its debt obligation to a current liability as a result of its maturity in June 2011 and the reduction of cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments. Cash flow provided by operating activities for the three months ended June 30, 2010 was $1.9 million, compared to $1.0 million generated for the three months ended June 30, 2009.
Third Quarter 2010 Outlook
The Company expects total revenues for the third quarter of 2010 to range from approximately $17.5 to $18.0 million. The Company is currently projecting a loss per share for the third quarter of 2010 of approximately $0.03 to $0.04.
OraQuick ADVANCE® HIV Shelf Life
The Companys OraQuick ADVANCE ® Rapid HIV-1/2 Antibody Test previously has had a shelf life of 12 months from the date of manufacture. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) recently approved an extension of this dating to 18 months. The Company has also recently received approval to extend dating to 18 months in Europe. As a result, the Company will soon be selling its OraQuick® HIV test, both domestically and internationally, with an 18-month shelf life.
OraQuick® HCV Clinical Update
As previously disclosed, the FDA required the Company to conduct an additional clinical study in support of the Companys premarket approval (PMA) application for use of its OraQuick® HCV Rapid Antibody test with fingerstick whole blood and oral fluid specimens. The Company completed the study and was prepared to submit a PMA supplement for both claims once a venous whole blood claim was approved by the FDA. In advance of submitting the PMA supplement, and in connection with discussions related to the CLIA (Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments of 1988) waiver protocols for this product, the Company shared its additional clinical data for fingerstick whole blood and oral fluid with the FDA. The FDA has recently provided feedback on this data to the Company.
The FDAs primary comments related to the lower sensitivity of the OraQuick® HCV test for oral fluid and fingerstick whole blood when compared to venous whole blood. As a result of these comments, the Company has decided to separate the PMA submissions for the fingerstick whole blood and oral fluid claims. A PMA supplement for fingerstick whole blood was recently sent to the FDA.
The Company intends to continue to pursue an oral fluid claim for its OraQuick® HCV test. However, the filing of a PMA supplement for oral fluid has been delayed pending additional discussions with the FDA. The Company also believes it is likely that more clinical data will be needed to support an oral fluid PMA submission for the OraQuick® HCV test.
