Product Pipeline Update

SPN-830 (apomorphine infusion device) - Continuous treatment of motor fluctuations (“off” episodes) in Parkinson's disease (PD)

In October 2022, the Company announced the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) issued a Complete Response Letter (CRL) for the SPN-830 New Drug Application (NDA). The CRL does not request additional efficacy and safety clinical studies, but rather requires additional information and analysis related to the infusion device and drug product across several areas of the NDA, including labeling, product quality and manufacturing, device performance and risk analysis. In addition, the FDA mentions that approval of the NDA requires inspections that could not be completed in a timely manner due to COVID-19 travel restrictions. Supernus will continue to work closely with its partners and the FDA to address all questions, and when possible, provide clarity regarding the potential timing of a resubmission of the NDA. The FDA has made an initial determination that the amendment to the Company’s application in response to the CRL will be subject to a Class 2, or six-month, review timeline.

SPN-820 - Novel first-in-class activator of mTORC1

The Phase II multi-center, randomized double-blind placebo-controlled parallel design study of SPN-820 in adults with treatment-resistant depression is ongoing. The study will examine the efficacy and safety of SPN-820 over a course of five weeks of treatment in approximately 270 patients. The primary outcome measure is the change from baseline to end of treatment period on the Montgomery-Asberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS) Total Score, a standard depression rating scale.

SPN-817 – A novel product candidate for the treatment of epilepsy

An open-label Phase II clinical study of SPN-817 in patients with treatment-resistant seizures is expected to start in the fourth quarter of 2022.

Financial Highlights

Net Product Sales

For the three months ended September 30, 2022, net product sales were $172.7 million, a 19% increase over net product sales of $145.5 million for the same period in 2021. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, net product sales were $485.6 million, an 18% increase over net product sales of $412.5 million for the same period in 2021. The increases in both periods were primarily due to net product sales of GOCOVRI and growth in net product sales of Qelbree and Oxtellar XR.

The following table provides information regarding net product sales during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 (dollars in millions):

Operating earnings (GAAP and non-GAAP)

For the three months ended September 30, 2022, operating loss (GAAP) was $1.5 million, as compared to operating earnings (GAAP) of $32.6 million for the same period in 2021. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022 operating earnings (GAAP) were $11.8 million, as compared to $79.9 million for the same period in 2021. The decreases in both periods were primarily due to activities to support the launch of Qelbree to the adult population, the Qelbree direct-to-consumer campaign, which substantially occurred in the third quarter of 2022, and amortization of acquired intangible assets from the Adamas Acquisition.

For the three months ended September 30, 2022, adjusted operating earnings (non-GAAP) were $25.4 million, compared to $43.3 million in the third quarter of 2021. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, adjusted operating earnings (non-GAAP) were $91.1 million, compared to $106.0 million for the same period of 2021.

Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Adjustments

An itemized reconciliation between operating earnings on a GAAP basis and operating earnings on a non-GAAP basis is as follows (dollars in millions):

Three Months Ended

September 30 Nine Months Ended

September 30 2022 2021 2022 2021 Operating earnings (loss) - As Reported (GAAP)$(1.5) $32.6 $11.8 $79.9 Adjustments: Amortization of intangible assets 20.6 6.0 61.9 18.0 Share-based compensation 5.0 4.0 13.3 13.9 Contingent consideration expense (gain) 0.5 0.1 1.9 (7.7)Depreciation 0.8 0.6 2.2 1.9 Operating earnings - As Adjusted (non-GAAP)$25.4 $43.3 $91.1 $106.0

Non-GAAP operating earnings adjusts for non-cash items including amortization of intangible assets, share-based compensation expense, change in fair value of contingent consideration, and depreciation. The increase in amortization of intangible assets for the three and nine months period ended September 30, 2022 was due to the amortization of acquired intangible assets from the Adamas Acquisition in November 2021.

Net earnings (GAAP)

For the three months ended September 30, 2022, net earnings (GAAP) and diluted earnings per share (GAAP) were $1.7 million and $0.03, respectively, as compared to $21.6 million, or $0.40 per diluted share, in the same period in 2021.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, net earnings (GAAP) and diluted earnings per share (GAAP) were $35.2 million and $0.62, respectively, as compared to $51.0 million, or $0.94 per diluted share, in the same period in 2021.

Cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities

At September 30, 2022, the Company’s cash, cash equivalents, current and long-term marketable securities are approximately $523.7 million, compared to $458.8 million as of December 31, 2021. This increase was primarily due to cash generated from operations.

Full Year 2022 Financial Guidance (GAAP)

For full year 2022, the Company is raising the midpoint and narrowing the expected ranges of full year 2022 financial guidance for total revenues and operating earnings (GAAP). The Company’s revised full-year 2022 financial guidance is set forth below (dollars in millions):

AmountTotal revenues (1)$650 - $680Combined R&D and SG&A expenses$460 - $475Operating earnings (2)$35 - $45

___________________________________________

Full Year 2022 Financial Guidance - GAAP to Non-GAAP Adjustments

An itemized reconciliation between projected operating earnings on a GAAP basis and projected operating earnings on a non-GAAP basis is as follows (dollars in millions):

AmountOperating earnings - GAAP$35 - $45Adjustments: Amortization of intangible assets$80 - $84Share-based compensation$16 - $20Contingent consideration$2 - $3Depreciation$2 - $3Operating earnings - non-GAAP$135 - $155

Non-GAAP Financial Information

This press release contains a financial measure, non-GAAP operating earnings, which does not comply with United States generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). The non-GAAP financial measure should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for or in isolation from, or superior to measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP operating earnings adjusts for non-cash share-based compensation expense, depreciation and amortization, and accretion of contingent consideration, and for factors that are unusual, non-recurring or unpredictable, and excludes those costs, expenses, and other specified items presented in the reconciliation tables in this press release. We believe the use of non-GAAP operating earnings is useful supplemental information to investors regarding the Company’s results of operations and assist management, analysts, and investors in evaluating the performance of the business. There are limitations associated with the use of non-GAAP financial measures. Including such measures may not be entirely comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies, may not reflect all items of income and expense, as applicable, that affect our operations, potential differences among calculation methodologies, may differ from the non-GAAP information used by other companies, including peer companies, and therefore comparability may be limited. We mitigate these limitations by reconciling the non-GAAP financial measure to the most comparable GAAP financial measure. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation. The Company’s 2022 financial guidance is also being provided on both a reported and a non-GAAP basis.
