“Assertio’s 2018 financial performance met, or exceeded, our
goals for the full year,” said Arthur Higgins, President and CEO of
Assertio. “We delivered adjusted EBITDA at the high end of our
current guidance range, and ahead of our original target, as well
as neurology franchise sales at the high end of our current
guidance range. In addition, we made significant progress
throughout the year advancing our strategic, financial and
operational goals, including the NDA filing of our long-acting
cosyntropin. We look forward to another productive year ahead as we
continue the transformation of Assertio into a biopharma company
with sustainable growth and a promising pipeline."
Business Highlights:
- FDA Accepted Filing of 505(b)(2) NDA Filing for
Cosyntropin: On February 19, 2019, the Company received
notification of acceptance for filing from the U.S. Food and Drug
Administration for its 505(b)(2) New Drug Application for its
injectable formulation of long-acting cosyntropin (synthetic
adrenocorticotropic hormone, or ACTH). The Company, together with
its partner West Therapeutic Development, LLC, seeks approval for
the use of long-acting cosyntropin as a diagnostic drug in the
screening of patients presumed to have adrenocortical
insufficiency. The PDUFA date is October 19, 2019.
- Strong Cash Generation and Debt Reduction: In
2018, the Company secured $97.0 million in non-dilutive cash
through strategic transactions, of which approximately $65.0
million was received in 2018; the balance of $32 million was
received on January 30, 2019. These cash inflows, as well as the
Company’s own cash-flow generation, reduced total secured debt by
$82.5 million from $365.0 million as of December 31, 2017 to $282.5
million as of December 31, 2018. As of December 31, 2018, the
Company had cash and cash equivalents of $110.9 million.
- Amended Senior Secured Credit Facility: On
January 8, 2019, the Company amended its Senior Secured Credit
Facility, replacing the previous fixed adjusted EBITDA covenant
with a trailing 12-month debt-to-adjusted EBITDA ratio that
declines over time. The amendment gives the Company greater
flexibility to continue to pay down debt and invest in the core
business, including potential business development
transactions.
- Strengthened NUCYNTA Collaboration with Collegium
- Extends Minimum Term; Annual Royalty Payments Through
2021: On November 8, 2018, the Company announced an
amendment to the Commercialization Agreement with Collegium
Pharmaceutical, Inc. relating to the NUCYNTA® franchise. The
amendment strengthens the collaboration and further aligns the
parties’ mutual interest in growing the franchise. The amendment
secures a minimum term of the Commercialization Agreement through
at least December 31, 2021, prior to which Collegium may not
terminate.
- Completed Previously Announced Corporate Restructuring
and HQ Relocation: In 2018, the Company completed its
reincorporation from California to Delaware and changed its name
from “Depomed, Inc.” to “Assertio Therapeutics, Inc.” In connection
with the reincorporation and name change, the Company’s common
stock began trading under a new ticker symbol “ASRT” and a new
CUSIP number, 04545L 107, on August 15, 2018.On August 15, 2018,
the Company completed the relocation of its corporate headquarters
from Newark, CA, to Lake Forest, IL. The relocation is consistent
with the Company’s strategy to attract new pharmaceutical talent
based in the Chicagoland area.Additionally, the Company has sublet
the entirety of its Newark facility.

Non-GAAP Financial MeasuresTo supplement the
Company’s financial results presented on a U.S. generally accepted
accounting principles (GAAP) basis, the Company has included
information about non-GAAP revenue, non-GAAP adjusted earnings,
non-GAAP adjusted diluted earnings per share, non-GAAP adjusted
EBITDA and other non-GAAP financial measures as useful operating
metrics. The Company believes that the presentation of these
non-GAAP financial measures, when viewed with results under GAAP
and the accompanying reconciliation, provides supplementary
information to analysts, investors, lenders, and the Company’s
management in assessing the Company’s performance and results from
period to period. The Company uses these non-GAAP measures
internally to understand, manage and evaluate the Company’s
performance, and in part, in the determination of bonuses for
executive officers and employees. These non-GAAP financial measures
should be considered in addition to, and not a substitute for, or
superior to, net income or other financial measures calculated in
accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP financial measures used by us may be
calculated differently from, and therefore may not be comparable
to, non-GAAP measures used by other companies.
Specified ItemsNon-GAAP measures presented
within this release exclude specified items. The Company considers
specified Items to be significant income/expense items not
indicative of current operations, including the related tax effect.
Specified items include non-cash adjustment to Collegium agreement
revenue and cost of sales, release of NUCYNTA and Lazanda sales
reserves for products the Company is no longer selling, interest
income, interest expense, amortization, acquired in-process
research and development and non-cash adjustments related to
product acquisitions, stock-based compensation expense, non-cash
interest expense related to debt, depreciation, taxes, transaction
costs, CEO transition, restructuring costs, adjustments to net
sales related to reserves recorded prior to the Company’s exit of
opioid commercialization activities, legal costs and expenses
incurred in connection with opioid-related litigation,
investigations and regulations pertaining to the company’s
historical commercialization of opioid products, certain types of
legal settlements, disputes, fees and costs, and to adjust for the
tax effect related to each of the non-GAAP adjustments.
