Eyenovia Reports Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2021 Financial Results

 

Successfully completed Type A meeting with FDA and anticipates MydCombi(tm) NDA resubmission in Q3 2022

 

Enrolled first patient in the Phase 3 VISION-2 study evaluating MicroLine as an on-demand treatment for improving near vision (presbyopia)

 

Entered into a $15 million Securities Purchase Agreement with Armistice Capital to support the Company’s clinical and manufacturing operations

 

Company to host conference call and webcast today, March 28, at 4:30pm ET

 

NEW YORK—March 28, 2022—Eyenovia, Inc. (NASDAQ: EYEN), a clinical stage ophthalmic company developing a pipeline of advanced therapeutics based on its proprietary microdose array print (MAP™) platform technology, today announced its financial results for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2021.

 

Fourth Quarter 2021 and Recent Business Developments

 

·Concluded a successful Type A meeting with FDA regarding the Complete Response Letter (CRL) that the company received in October related to its MydCombi New Drug Application (NDA). Eyenovia and the agency reached full alignment on the path forward toward NDA resubmission. Specifically:

 

oFDA has requested that additional non-clinical device testing be conducted on the OpteJet dispenser as required for a drug/device combination product;

 

oNo additional clinical work related to MydCombi is required;

 

oThe additional testing that the company is conducting now may be referenced in future regulatory applications for its other late-stage assets, MicroLine and MicroPine, potentially streamlining the review processes for those programs;

 

oEyenovia anticipates resubmitting the MydCombi NDA in the third quarter of this year.

 

·Announced first patient enrolled in VISION-2, the company’s Phase 3 trial to evaluate MicroLine as a potential temporary, on-demand treatment for Presbyopia. If successful, the company plans to start production of registration batches as a requirement towards filing a new drug/device combination application to the US FDA.

 

·Successfully completed its SPEED and Ophthalmic Preservative studies, demonstrating the value of the Optejet® technology for delivering single-dose efficacy without the negative impact of ocular preservatives.

 

·Entered into a $15 million Securities Purchase Agreement in March 2022 with Armistice Capital to support the Company’s clinical and manufacturing operations.

 

 

 

 

 

 

·Announced that Dr. Sean Ianchulev participated in a myopia panel discussion, Myopia Control: Corrective Lenses, Drugs and Diagnostics, at the Eyecelerator@AAO 2021 Meeting, which was held on Thursday, November 11, 2021 at the Ernest N. Morial Convention Center in New Orleans, LA.

 

Dr. Sean Ianchulev, Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and Chief Medical Officer of Eyenovia, commented, “During the fourth quarter and subsequent period, we took meaningful steps to advance our key programs: MydCombi for pharmacologic mydriasis and MicroLine for presbyopia. Beginning with MydCombi, we completed a very productive Type A meeting with FDA and, we believe, gained full alignment on the path forward. We are in the process of completing the additional non-clinical validation of the Optejet dispenser that has been requested by the agency and remain confident that we will resubmit an NDA during the third quarter of this year. Importantly, the additional testing that we are conducting on the Optejet now can be referenced in regulatory filings for our other programs – MicroLine and MicroPine – eliminating the need to repeat these tests on behalf of those programs.

 

“At the same time, we enrolled the first patient in VISION-2, which is the second Phase 3 study to evaluate MicroLine as a potential temporary, on-demand treatment for presbyopia, or blurred near vision. Recall that the results from our first Phase 3 study, VISION-1, were positive. If these results are consistent, we will be well positioned to file for regulatory approval in this indication as well, giving us potential line of sight to two approved, commercially available products. We anticipate topline data from VISION-2 mid-year.

 

“With the additional capital provided through Armistice Capital, we believe we are sufficiently capitalized to fund our Microline phase 3 Vision 2 study; the resubmission of the Mydcombi NDA as well as our Redwood City manufacturing expenditures. We look forward to delivering several potentially value creating milestones in 2022, and potentially our first product approval early next year,” Dr. Ianchulev concluded.

 

Fourth Quarter 2021 Financial Review

 

For the fourth quarter of 2021, net income was approximately $3.0 million, or $0.11 per share ($0.10 per share on a diluted basis), compared to a net loss of approximately $(4.2) million, or $(0.17) per share, fourth quarter of 2020. For the full year ended December 31, 2021, net loss was approximately $(12.8) million, or $(0.49) per share. This compares to a net loss of approximately $(19.8) million, or $(0.94) per share for the full year 2020

 

Total license revenue was approximately $10.0 million for the fourth quarter and approximately $14.0 million for the full year 2021 as compared to $2.0 million for the fourth quarter and full year 2020.

 

Research and development expenses totaled approximately $3.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2021 as compared to $3.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2020. For the full year 2021, research and development expenses were $14.5 million as compared to $13.4 million for the full year 2020.

About the VISION Trials

 

The VISION trials are Phase 3, double-masked, placebo-controlled, cross-over superiority trials that enroll participants with presbyopia. The primary endpoint is improvement in high-contrast binocular distance corrected near visual acuity in low light conditions. MicroLine is intended for the “on demand” improvement of near vision in people with presbyopia.

 

About MicroLine for Presbyopia

 

MicroLine (pilocarpine ophthalmic solution) is Eyenovia’s investigational pharmacologic treatment for presbyopia. Presbyopia or farsightedness is the non-preventable, age-related hardening of the lens, which causes a gradual loss of the eye’s ability to focus on nearby objects and is estimated to affect nearly 113 million Americans. Treatment options are typically device-based, such as reading glasses and contact lenses. Pilocarpine ophthalmic solution is known to constrict the pupil and improve near-distance vision by creating an extended depth of focus through its small aperture effect. Eyenovia believes that its administration of pilocarpine using the Company’s high precision microdosing technology could provide a meaningful improvement in near vision while enhancing tolerability and usability. MicroLine has been licensed to Arctic Vision (Hong Kong) Limited in Greater China and South Korea.

 

About MicroPine for Progressive Myopia

 

MicroPine (atropine ophthalmic solution) is Eyenovia’s investigational, potentially first-in-class topical treatment for the reduction of pediatric myopia progression, also known as nearsightedness, in children ages 3-12. It has been developed for comfort and ease-of-use in children, and its microdose administration is designed to potentially result in low systemic and ocular drug exposure. MicroPine has been licensed to Bausch Health Companies, Inc. in the United States and Canada, and Arctic Vision (Hong Kong) Limited in Greater China and South Korea.

 

 

 

 

 

 

About MyCombi™ for Mydriasis

 

MydCombi is Eyenovia's investigational, first-in-class fixed-dose-combination product (tropicamide 1% and phenylephrine 2.5% ophthalmic solution) for pharmacologic mydriasis (eye dilation), which is targeted to improve the efficiency of the estimated 100 million office-based comprehensive eye exams performed every year in the United States, as well as the estimated 4 million pharmacologic mydriasis applications for cataract surgery. Developed as a micro-formulation for use without anesthetic, Eyenovia believes MydCombi will help improve the efficacy, tolerability, and efficiency of pharmacologic mydriasis. MydCombi has been licensed to Arctic Vision (Hong Kong) Limited in Greater China and South Korea.

 

About Optejet® and Microdose Array Print (MAP™) Therapeutics

 

Eyenovia's Optejet microdose formulation and delivery platform for ocular therapeutics uses high-precision piezo-print technology to deliver 6-8 μL of drug, consistent with the capacity of the tear film of the eye. We estimate the volume of ophthalmic solution administered with the Optejet is less than 20% of that delivered using conventional eyedroppers, thus reducing overdosing and exposure to drug and preservatives. Eyenovia's patented microfluidic ejection technology is designed for fast and gentle ocular surface delivery, where solution is dispensed to the ocular surface in approximately 80 milliseconds, beating the ocular blink reflex. Successful use of the Optejet has been demonstrated more than 85% of the time after basic training in a variety of clinical settings compared to 40 – 50% historically seen with conventional eyedroppers. Additionally, its smart electronics and mobile e-health technology are designed to track and enhance patient compliance.
