KORU Medical Systems Announces 2021 Second Quarter Financial Results

CHESTER, N.Y.--()--Repro Med Systems, Inc. dba KORU Medical Systems (NASDAQ: KRMD) ("KORU Medical" or the "Company"), a leading medical technology company focused on the development, manufacturing, and commercialization of innovative and easy-to-use specialty infusion solutions that improve quality of life for patients, today reported financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2021.

Second Quarter 2021 Summary:

  • Solid net revenue of $5.5 million; positive sequential quarterly growth
  • Gross margin of 58.1%
  • Net loss of $1.1 million

"We are pleased with our performance and sequential revenue growth in the second quarter and look forward to continuing to build growth and momentum in the second half of 2021. We are beginning to see a rebound in growth in the subcutaneous immunoglobulin market, and we are well positioned to remain the category leader," said Linda Tharby, KORU Medical's CEO. "We are focused on executing on our strategy, driving growth in our core SCIg therapy franchise through commercial efforts to increase penetration of home subcutaneous delivery, building a pipeline of subcutaneous therapeutic candidates and introducing product and technology innovations to generate further topline growth. "

Second Quarter 2021 Financial Results

Net sales were $5.5 million, a decline of 28.3% compared to the second quarter of 2020, due to approximately $2.3 million of COVID-related stocking orders and higher novel therapies sales from non-recurring clinical trials, each in the prior year. Sequential quarter net sales growth was 2%, driven by a 4% increase in domestic core business, and growth in novel therapies revenues. Both the overall domestic immunoglobulin market and our end-user sales to the specialty pharmacy channel grew mid-single digits through Q2 2021, which we believe indicates market recovery in new patient starts for SCIg therapy.

Gross margin was 58.1% for the second quarter of 2021, a decrease of 5.6 percentage points compared to the second quarter of 2020. Gross margin was negatively impacted by lower volumes, resulting in unfavorable absorption in the quarter.

Total operating expenses for the second quarter of 2021 were $4.6 million, compared to $5.9 million for the same period in 2020, which included $2.3 million of litigation expenses. Excluding the impact of litigation expenses, operating expenses grew primarily due to new commercialization, research and development, and regulatory initiatives in support of our growth strategy, as well as CEO transition related costs.

Net loss for the second quarter of 2021 was $1.1 million, or $(0.03) per diluted share, unchanged from the same period in 2020. On a non-GAAP basis, adjusted diluted earnings per share was $(0.02), $0.04 lower than the same period in 2020.

Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA for the second quarter of 2021 was $(0.3) million, compared to $1.8 million in the second quarter of 2020.

Reorganization Charges. We have excluded the effect of reorganization charges in calculating our non-GAAP measures. We incurred significant expenses in connection with the departure and replacement of our chief executive officer and the recruiting of two new board members, which we would not have otherwise incurred in periods presented as part of our continuing operations.

Discontinued Product Expense. We have excluded the effect of expenses related to a discontinued product line in calculating our non-GAAP measures. We did not incur any related expense in 2021.

Litigation. We have excluded litigation expenses in calculating our non-GAAP measures. Litigation expenses in 2020 included professional fees associated with our litigation with EMED, which discontinued as a result of the settlement on May 20, 2020.

Manufacturing Initiative Expenses. We have excluded the effect of expenses related to creating manufacturing efficiencies, in calculating our non-GAAP measures. We incurred expenses in connection with these initiatives which we would not have otherwise incurred in periods presented as part of our continuing operations. We expect to incur related expenses for the next six to nine months.

Stock-based Compensation Expense. We have excluded the effect of stock-based compensation expense in calculating our non-GAAP measures. We record non-cash compensation expense related to grants of options for executives, employees and consultants, and grants of common stock to our board of directors and our CEO. Depending upon the size, timing and the terms of the grants, the non-cash compensation expense may vary significantly but will recur in future periods. Adjusted EBITDA for the six months ended June 30, 2021 included stock-based compensation expense of $0.4 million related to the departure and replacement of our chief executive officer. This expense is included in Stock-based Compensation Expense in calculating Adjusted Diluted EPS.
