Medicure Reports Financial Results for
Quarter and Year Ended December 31, 2020
Conference call to be
held in connection with the Company's Q1 2021 results to be released in May 2021
WINNIPEG, MB, April 20, 2021 /CNW/ - Medicure
Inc. ("Medicure" or the "Company") (TSXV: MPH) (OTC: MCUJF), a company focused on the development
and commercialization of pharmaceuticals and healthcare products for patients and prescribers in the United States market, today
reported its results from operations for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2020.
Quarter and Year Ended December 31, 2020
Highlights:
- Recorded total net revenue
of $11.6 million during the year ended December 31, 2020 compared to $20.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2019 and;
- Recorded total net revenue
of $2.4 million during the quarter ended December 31, 2020 compared to $3.5 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2019 and;
- Recorded total net revenue
from the sale of AGGRASTAT® of $10.6 million during the year ended December 31, 2020 compared to $19.4 million
for the year ended December 31, 2019 and;
- Diversified product portfolio
with ZYPITAMAG® revenues of $453,000 and revenues from the Marley Drug business of $340,000 during the year
ended December 31, 2020 and;
- Reduced selling expenses
to $5.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2020 compared to $13.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2019 and;
- Adjusted earnings before
interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA1) for the year ended December 31, 2020 was negative $3.9 million
compared to adjusted EBITDA of negative $3.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2019 and;
- Net loss for the year
ended December 31, 2020 was $6.8 million compared to $19.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2019;
Financial Results
The decrease in AGGRASTAT® revenues
when compared to the same periods in the previous year, as described above, is the result of decreases in the volume of AGGRASTAT®
sold in 2020 when compared to 2019, due mainly to fewer procedures being performed as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and a decline
in the overall use of the drug class. In addition, the Company continues to experience pricing pressures from competitors which
contributed to the decline in revenue from AGGRASTAT®.
ZYPITAMAG® contributed $453,000
of revenue for the year ended December 31, 2020 compared to $183,000 for the year ended December 31, 2019. With the acquisition
of the Marley Drug business in December of 2020, including direct to patient marketing, and improved insurance coverage experienced
during 2020, the Company has seen some growth in interest in ZYPITAMAG® during 2020. COVID-19 has provided some
challenges with physician access, however, the Company continues to pursue innovative marketing strategies to grow the usage of
the product.
The Marley Drug business, acquired on December
17, 2020, contributed $340,000 of revenue to the Company for the period beginning on December 17, 2020. Marley provides excellent
customer service, cost competitive medications, expedited direct to patient delivery, and is licensed in 49 states, Washington
D.C. and Puerto Rico. Its advanced operating systems include automated pill dispensing, an extended supply generic drug program,
and an effective customer communication system. Marley has been successful in marketing directly to customers, providing access
to medications without the need for insurance, and building a nationwide customer base.
Additionally, sodium nitroprusside (SNP), which
was first sold commercially during 2020, contributed $116,000 of revenue during the year ended December 31, 2020. The Company also
earned $95,000 of revenue from ReDSTM during the year ended December 31, 2020 compared to $618,000 for the year ended
December 31, 2019.
Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended
December 31, 2020 was negative $2.9 million compared to negative $1.9 million for the three months ended December 31, 2019. The
decrease in adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended December 31, 2020 is the result of lower revenues when compared to the same
period in 2019 and higher general and administrative expenses as a result of increased legal expenses resulting from the patent
challenge litigation which was settled during the three months ended December 31, 2020.
Adjusted EBITDA for the year ended December
31, 2020 was negative $3.9 million consistent with negative $3.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2019. Adjusted EBITDA
for the year ended December 31, 2020 resulted from lower revenues, however this revenue decline was offset by lower selling and
research and development expenses when compared to 2019.
During the year ended December 31, 2020, the
Company recorded $860,000 in government assistance resulting from the Canada Emergency Wage Subsidy. The funding has been
recorded as a reduction of the related salary expenditures with $595,000 recorded within selling expenses, $159,000 recorded within
general and administrative expenses and $106,000 recorded within research and development expenses.
Net loss for the three months ended December
31, 2020 was $4.4 million or $0.41 per share compared to net loss of $15.5 million or $1.08 per share for the three months ended
December 31, 2019. The main factors contributing to the decrease in the net loss recorded for the three months ended December 31,
2020 were the impairment loss recorded on the ReDSTM license, and a loss recorded upon the settlement of the holdback
receivable during the three months ended December 31, 2019, partially offset by lower revenue experienced during the three months
ended December 31, 2020.
Net loss for the year ended December 31, 2020
was $6.8 million or $0.64 per share compared to $19.8 million or $1.32 per share for the year ended December 31, 2019. The main
factors contributing to the decrease in the net loss recorded for the year ended December 31, 2020 were the impairment loss recorded
on the ReDSTM license, and a loss recorded upon the settlement of the holdback receivable during 2019, partially offset
by lower revenue experienced during the year ended December 31, 2020.
At December 31, 2020, the Company had unrestricted
cash totaling $2.7 million, down from the $13.0 million of unrestricted cash held as of December 31, 2019, primarily due to cash
used in the acquisition of Marley Drug. The Company is in the process of obtaining debt financing from a commercial bank to replenish
its cash balance. Cash flows used in operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2020 totaled $2.2 million compared to
$14.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2019.
All amounts referenced herein are in Canadian
dollars unless otherwise noted.
The Company plans to hold an investor conference
call in early May 2021 to present the results for the year ended December 31, 2020 and the three months ended March 31, 2021 with
date and dial in information to be provided. The full financial statements are available at www.sedar.com and on the Company's
website at www.medicure.com.
Notes
| (1) |
The Company defines EBITDA as "earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and other income or expense" and Adjusted EBITDA as "EBITDA adjusted for non–cash and non-recurring items". The terms "EBITDA" and "Adjusted EBITDA", as it relates to the three months and year ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 results prepared using IFRS, do not have any standardized meaning according to IFRS. It is therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. |
