Financial Results for Quarter Ended June 30, 2019

• Xtampza ER net product revenues were $26.0 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2019 (the “2019 Quarter”), compared to $18.1 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2018 (the “2018 Quarter”) and $25.1 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2019, representing an increase of 44% and 4%, respectively.
  
  
• Nucynta^® franchise net product revenues were $49.0 million in the 2019 Quarter, compared to $55.0 million for the 2018 Quarter and $49.4 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2019, representing a decrease of 11% and 1%, respectively.
  
  
• Total net product revenues were $75.0 million in the 2019 Quarter, compared to $73.1 million for the 2018 Quarter and $74.5 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2019, representing an increase of 3% and 1%, respectively.
  
  
• Selling, general and administrative expenses were $28.9 million for the 2019 Quarter, compared to $31.3 million for the 2018 Quarter. The decrease was primarily related to higher one-time costs incurred in the 2018 Quarter to commercialize the Nucynta Products, offset by increased professional fees and an increase in stock-based compensation in the 2019 Quarter.
  
  
• Net loss for the 2019 Quarter was $4.7 million, or $0.14 per share (basic and diluted), compared to net loss of $13.1 million, or $0.40 per share (basic and diluted), for the 2018 Quarter. Net loss included stock-based compensation expense of $4.2 million and $3.5 million for the 2019 Quarter and 2018 Quarter, respectively.
  
  
• Non-GAAP adjusted income for the 2019 Quarter was $3.1 million, compared to a non-GAAP adjusted loss of $4.9 million for the 2018 Quarter.
  
  
• Collegium had cash and cash equivalents of $148.7 million as of June 30, 2019, compared to $134.9 million as of March 31, 2019. The increase in cash and cash equivalents was primarily the result of cash provided by operating activities partially offset by capital expenditures related to the buildout of additional manufacturing capacity.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement our financial results presented on a GAAP basis, we have included information about non-GAAP adjusted income/loss. We internally use this non-GAAP financial measure to understand, manage and evaluate the Company as we believe it represents the performance of our core business. Because this non-GAAP financial measure is an important internal measure for the Company, we believe that the presentation of the non-GAAP financial measure provides analysts, investors and lenders insight into management’s view and assessment of the Company’s ongoing operating performance. In addition, we believe that the presentation of this non-GAAP financial measure, when viewed with our results under GAAP and the accompanying reconciliation, provides supplementary information that may be useful to analysts, investors, lenders, and other third parties in assessing the Company’s performance and results from period to period. We report this non-GAAP financial measure in order to portray the results of our major operations – commercializing innovative, differentiated products for people suffering from pain – prior to considering certain income statement elements. This non-GAAP financial measure should be considered in addition to, and not a substitute for, or superior to, net income or other financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. The Non-GAAP financial measure is not based on any standardized methodology prescribed by GAAP and represents GAAP net income/loss adjusted to exclude stock-based compensation expense, amortization expense for the Nucynta intangible asset, non-cash interest expense recognized on the Nucynta minimum royalty payments, and minimum royalty payments due and payable in connection with the Nucynta Commercialization Agreement. Any non-GAAP financial measures used by us may be calculated differently from, and therefore may not be comparable to, a non-GAAP measure used by other companies.
