Second Quarter 2024 Results

Revenue Highlights

Second quarter royalties for Tyvaso DPI^® increased $6.5 million, or 34%, over the same period in prior year due to increased sales by United Therapeutics ("UT"). Collaborations and services revenue increased $14.8 million, or 132%, compared to the same period in 2023 primarily attributable to an increase in manufacturing activities for Tyvaso DPI. Afrezza^® net revenue for the second quarter of 2024 increased $2.8 million, or 20%, compared to the same period in 2023 primarily as a result of price (including a decrease in gross-to-net adjustments) and higher demand. V-Go^® net revenue for the second quarter of 2024 decreased $0.3 million, or 7%, compared to the same period in 2023 as a result of lower product demand partially offset by increased price.

Commercial product gross margin in the second quarter of 2024 was 73% compared to 72% for the same period in 2023. The increase in gross margin was primarily attributable to an increase in Afrezza net revenue.

Cost of revenue – collaborations and services for the second quarter of 2024 was $14.8 million compared to $9.0 million for the same period in 2023. The $5.8 million increase was primarily attributable to increased manufacturing volume and related production activities for Tyvaso DPI. Higher manufacturing volumes resulted in efficiencies, which contributed to a lower effective cost per unit.

Research and development ("R&D") expenses for the second quarter of 2024 were $11.8 million compared to $6.5 million for the same period in 2023. The $5.4 million increase was primarily attributed to increased costs for development activities for clofazimine inhaled suspension (MNKD-101), an Afrezza pediatric clinical study (INHALE-1), and initiation of a Phase 1 clinical study of a dry-powder formulation of nintedanib (MNKD-201) for treatment of pulmonary fibrotic diseases, partially offset by lower costs for an Afrezza post-marketing clinical study (INHALE-3).

Selling expenses were $11.5 million for the second quarter of 2024 compared to $14.0 million for the same period in 2023. The $2.5 million decrease was primarily due to reduced personnel related to a sales force restructuring completed during the first quarter of 2024.

General and administrative expenses were $12.6 million for the second quarter of 2024 compared to $11.9 million for the same period in 2023. The $0.7 million increase was primarily attributable to increases in estimated returns associated with sales of V-Go that pre-date our acquisition of the product and personnel costs.

Interest income, net, was $3.2 million for the second quarter of 2024 compared to $1.5 million for the same period in 2023. The $1.6 million increase was primarily due to higher yields on our securities portfolio and an increase in the underlying investments from the proceeds of the sale of 1% of our Tyvaso DPI royalties in December 2023.

Interest expense on financing liability (related to the sale-leaseback of our Danbury manufacturing facility) was $2.4 million for the second quarter of 2024 and remained consistent with the same period in 2023.

Interest expense was $6.1 million for the second quarter of 2024 compared to $6.9 million for the same period in 2023. The decrease of $0.8 million was primarily due to repayment of the MidCap credit facility and Mann Group convertible note in April 2024.

Interest expense on liability for sale of future royalties was $4.4 million for the second quarter of 2024 and was attributable to imputed interest and amortization of debt issuance costs on the liability recorded in connection with the sale of 1% of our Tyvaso DPI royalties in December 2023.

Loss on available-for-sale securities for the second quarter of 2024 was $1.6 million resulting from the modification of the Thirona note terms. Gain on available-for-sale securities for the same period in 2023 was $0.9 million as a result of the change in fair value of the Thirona investment relating to credit risk.

Loss on extinguishment of debt of $7.1 million for the second quarter of 2024 was incurred in connection with the prepayment of the MidCap credit facility and Mann Group convertible note in April 2024.

Selling expenses were $23.1 million in the first half of 2024 compared to $27.3 million for the same period in 2023. The $4.2 million decrease was primarily due to reduced personnel and travel expenses related to a sales force restructuring completed during the first quarter of 2024.

Non-GAAP Measures

To supplement our condensed consolidated financial statements presented under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), we are presenting non-GAAP net income (loss) and non-GAAP net income (loss) per share - diluted, which are non-GAAP financial measures. We are providing these non-GAAP financial measures to disclose additional information to facilitate the comparison of past and present operations, and they are among the indicators management uses as a basis for evaluating our financial performance. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures, when considered together with our GAAP financial results, provide management and investors with an additional understanding of our business operating results, including underlying trends.

These non-GAAP financial measures are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for comparable GAAP measures; should be read in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP; have no standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP; and are not prepared under any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles. In addition, from time to time in the future there may be other items that we may exclude for purposes of our non-GAAP financial measures; and we may in the future cease to exclude items that we have historically excluded for purposes of our non-GAAP financial measures. Likewise, we may determine to modify the nature of adjustments to arrive at our non-GAAP financial measures. Because of the non-standardized definitions of non-GAAP financial measures, the non-GAAP financial measures as used by us in this report have limits in their usefulness to investors and may be calculated differently from, and therefore may not be directly comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.

The following table reconciles our financial measures for net income (loss) and net income (loss) per share ("EPS") for diluted weighted average shares as reported in our condensed consolidated statements of operations to a non-GAAP presentation.

(1) Represents the non-cash portion of the 1% royalty on net sales of Tyvaso DPI earned during the periods presented which is remitted to the royalty purchaser and recognized as royalties – collaboration in our consolidated statements of operations. Our revenues from royalties – collaboration during 2Q 2024 and the first half of 2024 totaled $25.6 million and $48.2 million, respectively, of which $2.6 million and $4.8 million, respectively, were attributed to the royalty purchaser.

(1) Diluted weighted average shares ("DWAS") differs from basic due to the weighted average number of shares that would be outstanding upon conversion of convertible notes and exercise or vesting of outstanding share-based payments to employees. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, DWAS included 7,652 shares of outstanding share-based payments. 44,120 shares issuable upon conversion of our Senior convertible notes were excluded as their effect would be antidilutive.
