NEW YORK, March 18, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Eyenovia, Inc. (NASDAQ: EYEN), a commercial-stage ophthalmic company, today announced its financial and operating results for the fourth quarter and full-year ended December 31, 2023.
Fourth Quarter 2023 and Recent Business Developments
Michael Rowe, Chief Executive Officer, commented, “During the fourth quarter and subsequent period, we continued to execute on our corporate strategy that we initiated just a few quarters ago. FDA approval of clobetasol propionate ophthalmic suspension 0.05% gives us access to a large-market indication that is complementary to Mydcombi and allows us to add additional value to eye doctors using our existing field sales force. Additionally, our recent decision to reacquire the development and commercialization rights to MicroPine expands our pipeline with a potential blockbuster drug, if approved. With the CHAPERONE study in our hands, we plan to engage with FDA later this year to explore ways to expedite its development.
“At the same time, we made significant progress building out our manufacturing capabilities, with FDA approval of both our Redwood City facility as well as our contract manufacturer, Coastline International. These capabilities, together with our facility in Reno, provide us the capacity to manufacture commercial supply of Mydcombi while at the same time supporting both current and future development partnerships as well as our transition from the Gen-1 to Gen-2 Optejet dispenser, beginning with Mydcombi later this year.
“We also continue to work on ways to increase uptake of Mydcombi including acceptance of our product by Vision Source, a leading group buying organization supporting optometrists throughout the United States, as well as with formulary wins at ophthalmic surgical institutions. And looking longer term, we see many opportunities to leverage the Optejet through additional collaboration and co-development agreements in high-value indications, including dry eye, which we estimate to be a three-billion-dollar annual market opportunity in the U.S. alone.
“Overall, I am extremely pleased with our progress and our current momentum as we successfully transition to a commercial-stage, revenue generating leader in topical ophthalmic medications,” Mr. Rowe concluded.
Fourth Quarter and Full-Year 2023 Financial Review
For the fourth quarter of 2023, net loss was approximately $8.0 million, or $0.18 per share. This includes a $0.02 per share loss related to a one-time event for the repatriation of the rights to MicroPine. In 2022, our net loss was $6.1 million, or $0.17 per share, for the fourth quarter of 2022. For the full-year 2023, net loss was approximately $27.3 million, or $0.66 per share on approximately 41.0 million shares outstanding, and this compares to a net loss of $28.0 million, or $0.83 per share, on approximately 33.6 million weighted average shares outstanding, for the full year 2022.
Research and development expenses totaled approximately $4.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2023, compared to $2.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2022, an increase of approximately 84.6%. For the full-year 2023, research and development expenses were $13.0 million, a decrease of 3.0% as compared to $13.4 million for the full-year 2022. The decrease was driven primarily by lower direct clinical and non-clinical expenses, as well as deferral of costs related to future delivery of clinical supply to our partners.
For the fourth quarter of 2023, general and administrative expenses were approximately $3.4 million, compared to $3.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2022, an increase of approximately 7.3%. For the full-year 2023, general and administrative expenses were $12.4 million, a decrease of 8.1% as compared to $13.5 million for the full-year 2022. The full year decrease was driven by reduction in legal expenses and executive recruitment cost year over year.
Total operating expenses for the fourth quarter of 2023 were approximately $7.5 million, compared to approximately $5.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2022. This represents an increase of approximately 39.0%. Total operating expenses for the full-year 2023 were $25.4 million, representing a decrease of 5.6% versus $26.9 million for the full-year 2022.
As of December 31, 2023, the Company’s unrestricted cash and cash equivalents were approximately $14.8 million, as compared to $22.9 million in unrestricted and restricted cash as of December 31, 2022.
