In 2018, Melinta achieved several key milestones within its commercial, development and business development operations critical to positioning the company for long-term growth.

“We are pleased with the decisive actions we took in 2018 to realign the business and help position Melinta for future growth and stockholder value creation.

In addition, the positive results we reported in 2018 give us confidence in the commercial potential of our products and pipeline.”

“We have several upcoming milestones in 2019, including opportunities to potentially expand product labels and increase our marketing territory. We believe that the Company’s efforts over the past year coupled with our strategic initiatives underway position Melinta to continue leading the global fight against antimicrobial resistance and delivering anti-infective solutions to patients,” continued Johnson.

Fourth Quarter and Full-Year 2018 Financial Results
Melinta reported revenue of $35.5 million and $96.4 million, respectively, for the fourth quarter and full-year ended December 31, 2018. Revenue from product sales was $14.6 million for the quarter and $46.6 million for the full-year, representing the first year of product sales in the Company’s history.

Cost of goods sold (“COGS”) was $9.0 million and $41.1 million, respectively, for the fourth quarter and full-year ended December 31, 2018, of which $3.9 million and $16.4 million was comprised of non-cash amortization of intangible assets. In addition, for the fourth quarter and full-year ended December 31, 2018, we recorded $1.0 million and $8.0 million, respectively, in charges related to inventory that is approaching shelf life, primarily driven by product launches. There were no product sales and therefore no costs of goods sold in the prior year period.

Research and development (“R&D”) expenses were $10.4 million and $55.4 million, respectively, for the fourth quarter and full-year ended December 31, 2018, compared to $11.6 million and $49.5 million for the same periods in 2017. Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses were $29.5 million and $133.3 million for the fourth quarter and full-year ended December 31, 2018, compared to $37.3 million and $63.3 million for the same periods in 2017. R&D and SG&A expenses increased primarily as a result of the additional costs associated with the acquisition of The Medicines Company infectious disease business (“IDB”) and the Cempra merger. In addition, SG&A included severance-related costs of $8.9 million and $12.3 million, respectively, for the fourth quarter and full-year ended December 31, 2018, as well as an offsetting gain of $8.8 million from the remeasurement of contingent consideration associated with the acquisition of the IDB from The Medicines Company in January 2018. Also, during the fourth quarter of 2018, we recognized goodwill impairment charges of $25.1 million related to the acquisition of the IDB in the first quarter of 2018.

Net loss was $44.1 million, or $3.94 per share, for the fourth quarter of 2018, compared to a net loss of $20.9 million, or $7.40 per share, for the fourth quarter of 2017. Net loss was $157.2 million, or $17.12 per share, for the year ended December 31, 2018, compared to a net loss of $78.2 million, or $109.28 per share, for 2017. Net loss per share year-over-year was impacted by changes in share count as a result of the Cempra merger and financing related to the acquisition of the IDB, as well as a one-for-five reverse stock split effective on February 22, 2019.

Visit www.melinta.com for more information.

As more fully described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017, the former private company Melinta was determined to be the accounting acquirer in our November 2017 reverse merger with Cempra and, accordingly, historical financial information for the fourth quarter and full year 2017 presented in this press release reflects the standalone former private company Melinta until November 3, 2017, and, therefore, period-over-period comparisons may not be meaningful.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement our financial results presented on a U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, basis, we have included information about non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, as a useful operating metric. 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 to analysts, investors, lenders, and our management in assessing the Company’s performance and results from period to period. This non-GAAP measure closely aligns with the way management measures and evaluates the Company’s performance. 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. Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA is not based on any standardized methodology prescribed by GAAP and represents GAAP net income (loss), which the Company believes is the most directly comparable GAAP measure, adjusted to exclude interest income, interest expense, depreciation and amortization, stock based compensation expense, changes in the fair value of our warrant liability, impairment charges, bargain purchase gains, gains or losses on extinguishment of debt, acquisition-related costs, gains on the reversal of loss contracts, and other adjustments, including the remeasurement of contingent consideration related to our acquisition of IDB and launch-related excess and obsolete inventory. Non-GAAP financial measures used by us may be calculated differently from, and therefore may not be comparable to, non-GAAP measures used by other companies.

Many of these factors that will determine actual results are beyond Melinta’s ability to control or predict.

Other risks and uncertainties are more fully described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018, our Revised Definitive Proxy Statement filed January 29, 2019, and in other filings that Melinta makes and will make with the SEC.
