Exhibit 99.1
Navidea Announces Fourth Quarter and Full Year
2014 Results
– Management hosting webcast and
conference call on March 5, 2015 at 8:30 a.m. EST –
DUBLIN, OHIO – March 5, 2015 –
Navidea Biopharmaceuticals, Inc. (NYSE MKT: NAVB), today announced results for the fourth quarter
and year ended December 31, 2014. Navidea reported total revenue for 2014 of $6.3 million including Lymphoseek®
(technetium Tc 99m tilmanocept) injection sales revenue of $4.2 million. Projected guidance for Navidea’s share of Lymphoseek
revenue in 2015 is $10 million to $12 million. Based on expected revenue run rates and consistent with revenue guidance, Navidea
expects to achieve break-even cash flow in first quarter 2016 based on our current strategic plans.
“Lymphoseek’s recently expanded
U.S. label, our sharpened focus on commercial execution and our new commercial and medical affairs teams strongly position Navidea
to accelerate near-term revenue growth. We continue to practice fiscal discipline as evidenced by the nearly 50% reduction in cash
used in operations from the first quarter to the fourth quarter of 2014. We believe these actions put us on a solid path toward
profitability,” said Rick Gonzalez, Navidea President and Chief Executive Officer. “Lymphoseek’s lymphatic mapping
indication in solid tumors beyond breast, melanoma and head & neck cancers, combined with the recent European approval, will
be drivers to the medium term revenue growth while, in parallel, Macrophage Therapeutics advances therapeutic applications of our
ManoceptTM platform.”
Financial Results
Full Year Financial Results: Revenues
for the year ended December 31, 2014 were $6.3 million compared to $1.1 million for 2013. Navidea’s revenues for 2014 consisted
of $4.2 million in sales of Lymphoseek, $300,000 from business development milestones and $1.7 million from various federal grants
and other revenue, compared to $614,000, $0 and $516,000, respectively, for 2013.
Operating expenses for the year ended December
31, 2014 were $32.3 million compared to $39.2 million for 2013. Research and development expenses were $16.8 million during 2014
compared to $23.7 million during 2013. The net decrease from 2013 to 2014 was primarily a result of reductions in Lymphoseek, NAV5001
and NAV4694 product development costs coupled with reduced headcount. Selling, general and administrative expenses were $15.5 million
for 2014 and 2013. Increased medical education costs, legal and professional services and other support costs were offset by decreased
investor relations costs, compensation, and out-of-pocket marketing costs to support the commercial launch of Lymphoseek.
Navidea’s loss from operations for
the year ended December 31, 2014 was $27.6 million compared to $38.4 million for the same period in 2013. For the year ended December
31, 2014, Navidea reported a loss attributable to common stockholders of $35.7 million, or $0.24 per share, compared to a loss
attributable to common stockholders of $42.7 million, or $0.35 per share, for the same period in 2013.
Fourth
Quarter Financial Results: Revenues for the fourth quarter of
2014 were $2.2 million compared to $535,000 for the same period in 2013. Navidea’s revenues for the fourth quarter of 2014
consisted of $1.5 million in sales of Lymphoseek and $738,000 from various federal grants and other revenue, compared to $343,000
and $192,000, respectively, for the same period in 2013.

Fourth quarter 2014 operating expenses
were $6.4 million compared to $13.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2013. Research and development expenses were $2.3 million
during the fourth quarter of 2014 compared to $9.4 million during fourth quarter of 2013. The net decrease from 2013 to 2014 was
primarily a result of reductions in Lymphoseek, NAV5001 and NAV4694 product development costs coupled with reduced headcount and
related support costs. Selling, general and administrative expenses were $4.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2014 compared $4.0
million for the same period in 2013. Increased out-of-pocket Lymphoseek marketing costs and medical education costs were offset
by decreased compensation and related support costs.
Navidea loss from operations for the fourth
quarter of 2014 was $4.5 million compared to $13.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2013. For the fourth quarter of 2014, Navidea
reported a loss attributable to common stockholders of $6.9 million, or $0.05 per share, compared to a loss attributable to common
stockholders of $13.8 million, or $0.10 per share, for the fourth quarter of 2013.
