Recent highlights include: Finance Update Opiant and Emergent Biosolutions Inc. (EBS) settle legal dispute over royalties paid on NARCAN® Nasal Spray. The settlement includes a one-time payment, termination of the license agreement, and an exclusive license relating to NARCAN® Nasal Spray to EBS No royalty revenue recorded as license agreement with EBS has been terminated Approximately $35.4 million in cash and cash equivalents, as of September 30, 2022 Pipeline Update Completion of rolling New Drug Application (NDA) submission for OPNT003, nasal nalmefene, for opioid overdose on track in Q4 2022 Completed enrollment in the Phase 2 study for OPNT002, nasal naltrexone, for Alcohol Use Disorder (AUD), and on track to report topline results in mid-2023 Commenting, Roger Crystal, M.D., President and Chief Executive Officer of Opiant, said: “We are pleased with our progress during the third quarter towards completion of our NDA submission for OPNT003 and preparations to support a potential launch next year. Our agreement with Emergent Biosolutions to buy out the royalty for NARCAN® Nasal Spray underscores our steadfast commitment to the promise of OPNT003 and provides additional and non-dilutive financial flexibility as we advance towards commercialization. We also achieved the completion of enrollment in our Phase 2 clinical trial for alcohol use disorder.” Settlement with Emergent Biosolutions, Inc. regarding ongoing legal dispute of the royalty on NARCAN® Nasal Spray: Opiant entered into a settlement with Emergent Biosolutions Inc. (EBS) resolving a legal dispute with EBS over its royalty obligations to Opiant for NARCAN® Nasal Spray. Under the settlement, EBS will make a one-time cash payment of $25 million to Opiant, which also includes the 10% owned by SWK Holding, Inc., to terminate its license agreement with Opiant and in exchange for the worldwide and exclusive license for NARCAN® Nasal Spray, and licensed patents and know-how. Financial Results for the Three Months Ended September 30, 2022 For the three months ended September 30, 2022, Opiant recorded $0.2 million of revenue, compared to $16.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021. The revenue this quarter was from our contract with the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (BARDA)1. Opiant recorded no royalty revenue from its license agreement with EBS, since it has been terminated. For the comparable three months ended September 30, 2021, Opiant recorded $14 million of revenue from its license agreement with EBS and $2.3 million from grant and contract revenue. For the three months ended September 30, 2022, general and administrative (G&A) expenses decreased by $0.3 million to $3.1 million from $3.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021. Our fees associated with net sales of NARCAN® by EBS decreased by approximately $0.5 million, partially offset by increased personnel and related expense including stock-based compensation of $0.1 million and increased legal fees of $0.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2021. Research and development (R&D) expenses decreased by $0.8 million to $4.1 million, from $4.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021. External development expense decreased by $1.1 million primarily due to decreased activity on our lead product candidate, OPNT003, nasal nalmefene, for opioid overdose reversal, which was partially offset by an increase in personnel and related expense including stock-based compensation of $0.3 million. Sales and marketing (S&M) expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2022, increased by $1.5 million to $2.6 million from $1.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021. Personnel and related expense including stock-based compensation increased by $0.4 million and external third-party expenses related to pre-commercial activities increased by $1.1 million. Opiant did not report royalty expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2022. Opiant recognized $3.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021. The decrease of $3.1 million is attributable to there being no royalty revenue recorded from net sales of NARCAN® Nasal Spray by EBS during the quarter ended September 30, 2022. During the three months ended September 30, 2022, interest expense was $0.4 million compared to $0.5 million during the three months ended September 30, 2021. Interest expense is all related to Opiant’s convertible debt. Net loss for the three months ended September 30, 2022, was approximately $10 million, or a loss of $1.93 per basic share and diluted share, compared to net income of approximately $3.4 million, or $0.77 per basic and $0.56 per diluted share, for the comparable period of 2021. Financial Results for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2022 For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, Opiant recorded approximately $8.5 million of revenue, compared to $34 million during the corresponding period of 2021. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, Opiant recognized $4.5 million of revenue from its license agreement with EBS and $4 million from grant and contract revenue. This compares to $27.7 million and $6.3 million, respectively, for the same period in 2021. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, G&A expenses increased by $2.6 million to approximately $11.4 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to $8.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. Personnel and related expense including stock-based compensation increased by $2.5 million, and legal and other fees increased by $0.1 million. R&D expenses during the nine months ended September 30, 2022, increased by $8.8 million to $20.9 million, compared to $12.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. External development expense increased by $6.7 million primarily due to increased activity on OPNT003, nasal nalmefene, and personnel and related expense, including stock-based compensation increased by $2.1 million. S&M expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, increased by $5.0 million to $8.1 million from $3.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. Personnel and related expense including stock-based compensation increased by $2.4 million, and external third-party expenses related to pre-commercial activities increased by $2.6 million. Royalty expenses were $0.9 million and $6.1 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2022, and 2021, respectively. The decrease of $5.2 million is attributable to the decrease in net royalty revenue recorded from sales of NARCAN® Nasal Spray by EBS. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, interest income was $227.8 thousand compared to interest income of $10.3 thousand for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, which primarily resulted from an increased rate of return on Opiant’s invested cash balances. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, interest expense was approximately $1.2 million compared to $1.6 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2021. Interest expense is all related to Opiant’s convertible debt. Net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, was approximately $33.8 million, or a loss of $6.66 per basic and diluted share, compared to net profit of approximately $2.3 million, or a gain of $0.52 per basic and $0.41 per diluted share, for the comparable period of 2021. As of September 30, 2022, Opiant had $35.4 million in cash and cash equivalents. About Opiant Pharmaceuticals, Inc.
