“2021 was a year of commercial execution for Revance and we were very pleased to end the fourth quarter having more than doubled our RHA® Collection revenue and fintech payment processing volume run-rates over the same period last year.

These results were made possible by our targeted strategy, differentiated portfolio and outstanding team,” said Mark J. Foley, Chief Executive Officer of Revance.

Foley continued, “Also, we were encouraged by the FDA’s timely acceptance of our Type A meeting request and believe our meeting has informed our next steps for our BLA resubmission. We plan to provide an update on our regulatory pathway once we receive the formal meeting minutes from the FDA. Looking ahead, obtaining approval for DaxibotulinumtoxinA for Injection for the treatment of glabellar lines remains our top priority in 2022, in addition to increasing our revenue and deepening our customer relationships, all while preserving our cash to maximize our financial flexibility. We remain encouraged by the ongoing growth of the neuromodulator market, despite the pandemic, and continue to believe that our long-acting neuromodulator, once approved, paired with our leading dermal fillers and relational commerce platform, will provide us with a significant opportunity for differentiation in the market.”

Corporate Update:

• Type A Meeting with U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for DaxibotulinumtoxinA for Injection. Revance recently held a Type A meeting with the FDA to gain clarity and alignment on the requirements for approval for its biologics license application (BLA) for DaxibotulinumtoxinA for Injection for the treatment of glabellar lines. The company plans to provide an update on its regulatory pathway once it receives the meeting minutes.

• RHA® Redensity Dermal Filler Received FDA Approval. On December 22nd, Revance’s partner, Teoxane SA, received U.S. FDA approval for RHA® Redensity’s first indication, which is for the treatment of moderate to severe dynamic perioral rhytids (lip lines) in adults aged 22 or older. RHA® Redensity further bolsters the versatility of the RHA® Collection of dermal fillers.

• Strategic Priorities. Revance continues to focus its capital allocation on supporting its strategic priorities of obtaining FDA approval for DaxibotulinumtoxinA for Injection for the treatment of glabellar lines as soon as possible, increasing top-line growth with the RHA® Collection of dermal fillers and expanding and deepening customer relationships through the OPUL™ Relational Commerce platform.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This release includes preliminary unaudited non-GAAP operating expense, which excludes costs of revenue, depreciation, amortization and stock-based compensation. Revance excludes costs of revenue, depreciation, amortization and stock-based compensation because management believes the exclusion of these items is helpful to investors to evaluate Revance's recurring operational performance. Revance management uses this non-GAAP financial measure to monitor and evaluate its operating results and trends on an on-going basis, and internally for operating, budgeting and financial planning purposes. The non-GAAP financial measure should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with GAAP but should not be considered a substitute for or superior to GAAP results.

Revance is unable to reconcile preliminary unaudited non-GAAP operating expense to the most directly comparable GAAP measure because the items that are being excluded from the non-GAAP financial measure are difficult to predict and a reconciliation or a range of results could lead to disclosure that would be imprecise or potentially misleading. Material changes to any one of the exclusions could have a significant effect on our preliminary estimates and GAAP results. Such items include costs of revenue, depreciation, amortization, and stock-based compensation.
