“With the successes of 2020 as a backdrop, we have begun 2021 with great momentum and optimism. Based upon the two positive and statistically significant Phase 3 SONICS and LOGICS studies, Strongbridge has submitted a New Drug Application to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for RECORLEV® (levoketoconazole) for the treatment of endogenous Cushing’s syndrome,” said John H. Johnson, chief executive officer of Strongbridge Biopharma. “I am incredibly proud of our organization’s accomplishments over the last year and the team’s ability to execute against a number of strategic priorities that have set us up for long-term success. As we approach a number of transformational milestones in the year ahead, we remain focused on strengthening our organization through actively preparing for the potential approval and launch of RECORLEV, continued scientific exchange of results from the RECORLEV Phase 3 clinical program, and driving continued growth for KEVEYIS® (dichlorphenamide).”
Corporate & Financial Highlights
Rare Neuromuscular Franchise: KEVEYIS® (dichlorphenamide)
- Achieved KEVEYIS net product sales of $8.2 million for the fourth quarter ended, December 31, 2020, and $30.7 million for the full year ended December 31, 2020, exceeding its projected $28 million to $29 million guidance range, and representing a 41.5 percent increase over 2019 revenue of $21.7 million.
- Full-year 2021 revenue guidance of $34 million to $36 million for KEVEYIS.
Rare Endocrine Franchise: RECORLEV® (levoketoconazole)
- On March 2, 2021, the Company announced it submitted a New Drug Application (NDA) for RECORLEV to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration; if approved, and assuming a projected 10-month review cycle, the launch of RECORLEV is anticipated in the first quarter of 2022.
- With regard to the clinical development program and medical affairs activities:
- In November, secondary endpoints results from the Phase 3 SONICS study of RECORLEV for the potential treatment of endogenous Cushing’s syndrome were published in the journal, Pituitary.
- Interim safety and efficacy results, including new data analyses, from the Phase 3 LOGICS study have been accepted for poster presentation at the Endocrine Society’s (ENDO) 2021 annual meeting, taking place virtually from March 20-23, 2021.
Corporate and Financial Updates
- On February 16, 2021, the Company announced the promotion of Richard S. Kollender, who has served as chief operating officer of Strongbridge since September 2019, to president and chief financial officer. In this expanded role, Mr. Kollender will succeed Robert Lutz as chief financial officer and also maintain the responsibilities he held as chief operating officer. Mr. Kollender previously served on Strongbridge’s board of directors and also as chairman of the audit committee. These management changes are effective on March 3, 2021.

- Assuming the availability and full draw-down of the remaining $10 million from its debt facility, the Company believes it can fund operations as currently planned into, and potentially beyond, the first quarter of 2023.
Fourth Quarter 2020 Financial Results
The Company’s net revenues from sales of KEVEYIS increased $2.6 million, or 47%, from $5.6 million for the three months ended December 31, 2019 to $8.2 million for the three months ended December 31, 2020. The Company recorded cost of sales of $0.4 million for the three months ended December 31, 2020, compared to cost of sales of $1.0 million for the same period in 2019. Cost of sales decreased due to changes in the assumptions underlying the allocation between the purchase price of our inventory and our supply agreement. Our gross margins were 95% for three months ended December 31, 2020, compared to gross margins of 82% for the same period in 2019.
Selling, general and administrative expenses were $11.6 million for the three months ended December 31, 2020, compared to $12.0 million for the same period in 2019. The decrease during the current period was due to reduced personnel costs from headcount reductions and T&E savings from the prior period, partially offset by an increase in 3rd party expenses relating to our commercial activities.
Research and development expenses were $5.3 million for the three months ended December 31, 2020, compared to $8.0 million for the same period in 2019. The decrease was primarily due to reduced support activities and materials for our LOGICS trial, offset by a small increase in costs from our OPTICS trial in 2020.
For the three months ended December 31, 2020, basic net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders on a GAAP basis was ($11.9 million), or ($0.18) per share, compared to a basic net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders of ($9.0 million), or ($0.17) per share, for the same period in 2019. Net loss for the three months ended December 31, 2020 was higher than the same period in 2019 due to the prior period including income from the termination of a contract offset by an increase in net revenue in the current period. Additionally, there was a $2.3 million change in the revaluation of the fair value of our liability classified warrants recorded in 2020 compared to 2019 due to the increase in our stock price.
For the three months ended December 31, 2020, non-GAAP basic net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders was ($7.6 million), or ($0.11) per share, compared to a non-GAAP basic net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders of ($13.5 million), or ($0.25) per share, for the same period in 2019. The decrease in non-GAAP net loss during the three months ended December 31, 2020 due to the increase in KEVEYIS revenues and overall lower expenses.
Year-to-Date 2020 Financial Results
The Company’s net revenues from sales of KEVEYIS increased $9.0 million, or 41.5%, from $21.7 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2019 to $30.7 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2020. The Company recorded cost of sales of $2.2 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2020, compared to cost of sales of $3.8 million for the same period in 2019. Cost of sales decreased due to changes in the assumptions underlying the allocation between the purchase price of our inventory and our supply agreement. Our gross margins were 93% for twelve months ended December 31, 2020, compared to gross margins of 82% for the same period in 2019.
Selling, general and administrative expenses were $40.9 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2020, compared to $49.1 million for the same period in 2019. The decrease during the current period was due to reduced personnel costs from headcount reductions, reduced spending due to COVID-19, and lower third-party expenses. Additionally, the prior period had $3.2 million in one-time charges for severance expense.
Research and development expenses were $25.8 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2020, compared to $30.9 million for the same period in 2019. The spending reduction was primarily due to decreases in product development and supporting activities resulting from the completion of our SONICS trial in 2019 and higher costs related to our LOGICS trial in 2019, offset in part by an increase in costs from our OPTICS trial in 2020.
For the twelve months ended December 31, 2020, basic net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders on a GAAP basis was ($45.1 million), or ($0.78) per share, compared to a basic net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders of ($49.5) million, or ($0.91) per share, for the same period in 2019. Net loss for the twelve months ended December 31, 2020 was lower than the same period in 2019 due to the increase in KEVEYIS revenue of $9.0 million and the reduction in selling, general and administrative and research and development expenses during the twelve months ended December 31, 2020 compared to the same period in 2019. Those decreases were offset by a $12.2 million change in the revaluation of the fair value of our liability classified warrants due to the increase in our stock price and income from termination of a contract which was recorded in the prior period.
For the twelve months ended December 31, 2020, non-GAAP basic net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders was ($31.1 million), or ($0.54) per share, compared to a non-GAAP basic net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders of ($53.2 million), or ($0.98) per share, for the same period in 2019. The decrease in non-GAAP net loss during the twelve months ended December 31, 2020 was due to an increase in KEVEYIS revenue of $9.0 million and selling, general and administrative and research and development expenses decreasing during the twelve months ended December 31, 2020 compared to the same period in 2019.

About Strongbridge Biopharma
Strongbridge Biopharma is a global commercial-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on the development and commercialization of therapies for rare diseases with significant unmet needs. Strongbridge’s rare endocrine franchise includes RECORLEV® (levoketoconazole), a cortisol synthesis inhibitor currently being studied in Phase 3 clinical studies for the treatment of endogenous Cushing’s syndrome, and veldoreotide extended release, a preclinical next-generation somatostatin analog being investigated for the treatment of acromegaly and potential additional applications in other conditions amenable to somatostatin receptor activation. Both RECORLEV and veldoreotide have received orphan drug designation from the FDA and the European Medicines Agency. The Company’s rare neuromuscular franchise includes KEVEYIS® (dichlorphenamide), the first and only FDA-approved treatment for hyperkalemic, hypokalemic, and related variants of primary periodic paralysis. KEVEYIS has orphan drug exclusivity in the United States.
About KEVEYIS
KEVEYIS® (dichlorphenamide) is indicated for the treatment of primary hyperkalemic periodic paralysis, primary hypokalemic periodic paralysis, and related variants. In clinical studies, the most common side effects of KEVEYIS were a numbness or tingling, difficulty thinking and paying attention, changes in taste, and confusion. These are not all of the possible side effects that you may experience with KEVEYIS. Talk to your doctor if you have any symptoms that bother you or do not go away. You are encouraged to report side effects to Strongbridge Biopharma at 1-855-324-8912, or to the FDA at 1-800-FDA-1088 or visit www.fda.gov/medwatch. For additional KEVEYIS important safety information and the full prescribing information visit www.keveyis.com.
About RECORLEV
RECORLEV® (levoketoconazole) is an investigational cortisol synthesis inhibitor in development for the treatment of patients with endogenous Cushing’s syndrome, a rare but serious and potentially lethal endocrine disease caused by chronic elevated cortisol exposure. RECORLEV is the pure 2S,4R enantiomer of ketoconazole, a steroidogenesis inhibitor. RECORLEV has demonstrated in two successful Phase 3 studies to significantly suppress serum cortisol and has the potential to be a next-generation cortisol inhibitor.
The Phase 3 program for RECORLEV includes SONICS and LOGICS: two multinational studies designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of RECORLEV when used to treat endogenous Cushing’s syndrome. The SONICS study met its primary and secondary endpoints, demonstrating a statistically significant normalization rate of urinary free cortisol at six months. The LOGICS study, which met its primary endpoint, is a double-blind, placebo-controlled randomized-withdrawal study of RECORLEV that is designed to supplement the long-term efficacy and safety information supplied by SONICS. The ongoing long-term open label OPTICS study will gather further useful information related to the long-term use of RECORLEV.
RECORLEV has received orphan drug designation from the FDA and the European Medicines Agency for the treatment of endogenous Cushing’s syndrome.
