Teligent, Inc. (NASDAQ: TLGT), a New Jersey-based generics pharmaceutical company, today announced its financial results for the first quarter of 2021 and provided a business update.

“As we prepare for the second half of 2021, we are pleased with the progress being made with respect to remediation, our strengthened capital position, and the recent additions to our senior management team and board of directors,” said Tim Sawyer, Teligent’s President & Chief Executive Officer. “As noted on our fourth quarter call, we have reduced our debt by $118 million since June 30, 2020, and we continue to assess our cost structure so that we can maximize the value of our existing and future capital. We are also reiterating our prior guidance that we anticipate informing the FDA on our inspection readiness sometime during the third quarter of 2021.”

Early 2021 Achievements

  • Appointment of Ernest R. De Paolantonio as Chief Financial Officer of the Company, effective April 15, 2021.
  • Appointments of generic industry veteran William S. Marth and financial expert R. Carter Pate to our Board of Directors in February 2021.
  • As previously announced, in January 2021, the Company effectuated a series of additional strategic actions in partnership with its senior lenders and its Series C noteholders to recapitalize and enhance the Company’s financial flexibility, including:
    • Completion of $77 million debt-for-equity exchange with Series C noteholders and senior secured lenders; this transaction, along with financings earlier in 2020, has resulted in aggregate debt reduction of $118 million since June 30, 2020.
    • Amended Second Lien Credit Agreement to provide $4.6 million in incremental financing to support the company’s ongoing liquidity.
  • Additionally, the Company executed and completed on March 31, 2021 an At-The-Market (ATM) equity offering, raising gross proceeds of approximately $38.5 million.

First Quarter 2021 - Financial Highlights

  • Consolidated net revenues for the first quarter of 2021 were $11.6 million, versus $7.4 million in the first quarter of 2020. The increase of $4.1 million was driven primarily by timing of orders from private label customers, wholesale restocking and fewer Canadian supply constraints.
  • Cost of revenues increased by $4.2 million to $12.8 million in the first quarter of 2021 in comparison to the $8.6 million in the first quarter of 2020. Gross Profit percentage improved 5 percentage points to -10.5% in Q1 2021 from -15.6% in Q1 of the prior year. The increase in gross profit in the first quarter of 2021 was mainly attributable to higher sales offset by an increase in inventory reserves, increased absorption allocations due to lower contract volume, and price erosion in light of COVID-19.
  • Selling, general and administrative expenses in the first quarter of 2021 decreased by $0.4 million to $6.3 million as compared to $6.7 million in the first quarter of 2020. The decrease was primarily due lower professional fees versus the first Quarter of 2020.
  • There was a negligible impairment charge of $24K in the first quarter of 2021. An impairment charge was recorded in the first quarter of 2020 of $8.4 million related to trademark and technology of $4.9 million and product acquisition costs of $3.5 million.
  • Product development and research expenses were $1.5 million in the first quarter of 2021 and $1.8 million in the first quarter of 2020. The change was primarily due to a decrease in personnel costs, outside testing and pilot batch expenses partially offset by an increase of API expenses of $0.1million and increase in clinical studies.
  • Net Income for the first quarter of 2021 was $2.2 million as compared to a net loss of $26.8 million for the first quarter of 2020. The increase in income was primarily due to a gain on debt restructuring of $22.4 million offset by higher operating and interest expense as well as other expenses related to the debt restructure

Full Year 2021 Financial GuidanceAs previously noted in our 2020 year-end earnings release, the Company will not be providing financial guidance for the year ending December 31, 2021 at this time or in the immediate term.   There are a number of factors which weigh on our inability to provide such financial guidance, including, but not limited to, the continuing macroeconomic volatility triggered by the COVID-19 global pandemic and its continued impact on the Company’s business plans and efforts to resolve the Warning Letter issued by the FDA in November 2019, our dependence on the FDA’s schedule to reinspect the company’s facilities and conduct the pre-approval inspection of our newly constructed sterile injectable manufacturing facility in Buena, New Jersey, and the work we are continuing to diligently pursue with our financial and strategic advisors to critically assess the strengths of the company and how we can best leverage them moving forward. We do, however, look forward to a time in the future as we complete our work and assessments when we can provide such financial guidance and report more on some of these activities being pursued.

FDA Warning Letter Update As previously disclosed, the Company received a warning letter from the FDA in November 2019 arising from an inspection of its Buena, New Jersey manufacturing facility, as well as an additional comment letter from the FDA in August 2020. The Company has since provided the FDA with supplemental submissions outlining additional changes in its practices, submitting additional documentation to support previous and ongoing independent assessments, providing updates to the Company’s organizational structure, and providing further detail in regard to ongoing remediation projects (including comprehensive product quality assessments) to ensure all of our products are safe, effective and compliant.

As part of the Company’s efforts to remediate the issues identified in the FDA Warning Letter and to strengthen its quality systems, the Company undertook and completed a comprehensive review of all of our products during the fourth quarter of 2020. While the review did not identify material issues with many of the Company’s products, it did identify issues of non-conformance with respect to certain products, which resulted in recalls and halting the production of certain products, which the Company is actively reviewing and remediating. The Company is continuing to work diligently to remediate all issues cited by the FDA and those resulting from its comprehensive quality review, and continue to have active communications with the FDA regarding its progress. As previously reported, based on management’s current assessment of these remediation efforts, the Company believes it will be ready to inform the FDA of its inspection readiness during the third quarter. However, since the Company does not control the timing of the FDA re-inspection of the facility, we cannot predict a precise time range for the date when FDA will perform the site re-inspection.

COVID-19 Response Summary In alignment with the directives in the state of New Jersey, as a Pharmaceutical manufacturing facility, we are considered "essential". During the COVID-19 Public Health Emergency and State of Emergency in order to continue to supply our products to the patients that need them, we maintained our manufacturing operations and monitored conditions in order to maintain a safe workplace for our employees. The Company has taken several preventative measures to help ensure business continuity, while maintaining safe and stable operations. We have directed all non-production, Quality or R&D employees, to continue working from home in accordance with state and local guidelines while we continue to evaluate and finalize our return to office protocols. We have implemented social distancing measures on-site at our manufacturing facility to protect employees and our products. Our employees are provided daily personal protective equipment upon their arrival to the site and we have implemented temperature monitoring services at our newly established single point of entrance. We have also implemented a more frequent sanitization process of the facility. As the Public Health Emergency, State of Emergency and restrictions have abated, we are in the process of implementing a phased ‘return to office’ protocol under which we will maintain social distanced workspace and continue to sanitize our facilities.
