Revance Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ:RVNC), a biotechnology company developing botulinum toxin products for use in aesthetic and therapeutic indications, today announced results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2016.

Recent Highlights and Upcoming Milestones for DaxibotulinumtoxinA for Injection (RT002)

  • Initiated the Phase 3 program for RT002 to treat glabellar (frown) lines and expects to dose the first patient this quarter. Revance plans to report topline results in the fourth quarter of 2017.
  • Announced that the Data Safety Monitoring Board has reviewed data from the second cohort of the Phase 2 open-label study in cervical dystonia. Commenced enrollment in the third and final cohort of the study. Revance expects to report interim safety, efficacy and duration results for cohorts 1 and 2 later this quarter.
  • Initiated Phase 2 trial of RT002 to treat plantar fasciitis. The placebo-controlled study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of a single administration of RT002 in reducing the signs and symptoms of plantar fasciitis, a common cause of heel pain. Led by L. Andrew Koman, MD, Professor and Chair of the Department of Orthopaedic Surgery and Executive Director Musculoskeletal Service Line, Wake Forest School of Medicine, this trial advances a whole new treatment area for botulinum toxin to address pain and muscle tightness. Revance expects to report results in 2017.

“With three active programs for RT002 injectable underway to demonstrate the power of our differentiated neurotoxin, we expect to deliver the first uniquely new neuromodulator in nearly 30 years,” said Dan Browne, President and Chief Executive Officer at Revance. “Following the filing and opening of our IND application submission to treat frown lines, we initiated investigator training and are on track to start patient dosing for the Phase 3 program this quarter. In addition, we are making significant progress in the Phase 2 cervical dystonia trial. The third cohort is nearly fully enrolled and we expect to report interim data for the first two cohorts later this quarter. Finally, as we announced this morning, we are excited to pursue plantar fasciitis as a new indication, where Revance has the opportunity to deliver the first neurotoxin therapy approved to treat this painful condition. In the United States alone, more than two million patients undergo treatment annually and we believe the market could grow significantly larger if patients had a compelling neurotoxin treatment option.”

Summary Financial Results

Research and development expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2016 were $10.3 million compared to $13 million for the same period in 2015. The decrease in research and development expenses is primarily attributable to a reduction in clinical trial activities for RT001 topical, offset by an increase in clinical trial activities for RT002 injectable and manufacturing activities. Research and development expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 were $37.9 million compared to $32.6 million for the same period in 2015. The increase in research and development expenses is primarily attributable to personnel costs, manufacturing activities, and the acquisition of botulinum toxin-related patents and patent applications from Botulinum Toxin Research Associates, Inc.

General and administrative expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 were $7.5 million and $22 million compared to $5.8 million and $18.2 million for the same periods in 2015, respectively. The increase in general and administrative expenses is primarily attributable to personnel costs, legal matters, and marketing activities.

Total operating expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 were $17.8 million and $61.8 million compared to $18.8 million and $50.8 million for the same periods in 2015, respectively. Stock-based compensation for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 was $2.8 million and $9 million, respectively. When excluding depreciation and stock-based compensation, total operating expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 were $14.7 million and $51.7 million.

Net loss for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 was $18 million and $62.5 million compared to $19.2 million and $51.4 million for the same periods in 2015, respectively.

Cash and investments as of September 30, 2016 were $201.3 million.

2016 Financial Outlook

Revance updated its 2016 full-year guidance last provided on August 4, 2016. The company now expects its cash burn for 2016 to be in the range of $80 to $90 million. Revance expects its 2016 GAAP operating expense to now be in the range of $84 to $96 million, which when excluding depreciation of $2 to $3 million and estimated stock-based compensation of $12 to $13 million, results in projected 2016 non-GAAP operating expense of $70 to $80 million. Revance also now anticipates 2016 GAAP research and development expense to be in the range of $55 to $63 million, which when excluding depreciation of $2 to $3 million and estimated stock-based compensation of $6 to $7 million, results in projected 2016 non-GAAP research and development expense of $47 to $53 million.
