CHICAGO / May 09, 2024 / Business Wire / Xeris Biopharma Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: XERS), a growth-oriented biopharmaceutical company committed to improving patient lives by developing and commercializing innovative products across a range of therapies, today announced financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2024 and recent events.

“We grew total product revenue 25% in the first quarter compared to last year, despite an estimated $3 million negative impact to Gvoke revenue from the Change Healthcare cyberattack. This strong growth was driven by impressive momentum in Recorlev sales, Keveyis’ resilience in the marketplace, and Gvoke’s growing market share,” said Paul R. Edick, Xeris’ Chairman and CEO. “With these results, a strong start to the second quarter, along with our new technology partnership with Beta Bionics, we are confident in tightening our 2024 total revenue guidance to $175 million to $200 million.”

First Quarter 2024 Highlights

Commercial Products

• Gvoke®: First quarter net revenue was $16.6 million as compared to $15.0 million in the first quarter of 2023 – an increase of approximately 10%. Gvoke’s market share of the retail TRx glucagon market grew to over 36% through late April and weekly Gvoke TRxs broke the 5,000 level in late April.
• Keveyis®: First quarter net revenue remained very strong at $13.1 million – an increase of approximately 3% compared to the same period in 2023. Keveyis patient referrals remained strong with considerably lower patient loss in the quarter than anticipated.
• Recorlev®: First quarter net revenue was $10.6 million – an increase of $6.1 million compared to the same period in 2023. The average number of patients on Recorlev increased 139% from the same period in 2023 and 18% compared to the fourth quarter 2023.

Pipeline Program

• XeriSol™ levothyroxine (XP-8121): Successfully completed the Phase 2 clinical study. Data from the Phase 2 study will be available mid-2024.

Technology Partnerships

• XeriSol™: In May, Xeris entered into an exclusive worldwide collaboration and license agreement with Beta Bionics for the development and commercialization of a new and unique formulation of liquid stable glucagon for use in a bi-hormonal pump and pump systems.
• XeriJect®: In January, Xeris entered into an exclusive worldwide license agreement for Amgen to develop, manufacture, and commercialize a subcutaneous formulation of teprotumumab using Xeris’ XeriJect® technology in Thyroid Eye Disease (TED). Under the terms of the License Agreement, Xeris has the potential to receive $75 million in development, regulatory, and sales-based milestones, as well as escalating single-digit royalties based on future sales of TEPEZZA® using the XeriJect ® technology.

Cost of goods sold increased by $0.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to the same period ended in 2023. This increase was mainly attributable to higher product sales.

Research and development expenses increased by $3.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to the same period in 2023, driven by strategic investments in our pipeline, notably XP-8121, and our emerging technology partnership business as well as higher personnel costs.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $4.8 million for the three ended March 31, 2024 compared to the same period in 2023, due to higher personnel costs and rent expenses related to our headquarter lease, which commenced in April 2023.

Net Loss was $19.0 million, or $0.14 per share, for the three months ended March 31, 2024.

Cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments at March 31, 2024 was $87.4 million compared to $72.5 million at December 31, 2023.

Shares outstanding at April 30, 2024 was 148,255,663.
