\nAurinia Pharmaceuticals Inc. (NASDAQ: AUPH) (Aurinia or the Company) today issued its financial results for first quarter ended March 31, 2023. Amounts are expressed in U.S. dollars.<\/p>\n
\nTotal net revenue was $34.4 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2023, compared to $21.6 million in the prior year quarter ended March 31, 2022, representing significant growth of 59% year over year. Total net product revenue was $34.3 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2023, compared to $21.5 million in the prior year quarter ended March 31, 2022.<\/p>\n
\n\u201cWe are very pleased with our results in the first quarter of 2023 as it represents our most successful quarter to date,\u201d said Peter Greenleaf, President, and Chief Executive Officer of Aurinia. \u201cWith our continued focus on commercial execution, we saw the impact of our marketing and selling efforts directly in the quarter. This, coupled with the recent release of the renal biopsy data, and the newly issued method of use patent serve to further substantiate LUPKYNIS in the LN market.\u201d<\/p>\n
\nFor the fiscal year 2023, the Company is increasing its net product revenue guidance to a range of $135 – $155 million from $120 – $140 million for net product sales of LUPKYNIS. The guidance range is based on assumptions regarding historical patient start form (PSF) run rates, consistent conversion rates, time to convert, persistency, and pricing.<\/p>\n
First Quarter 2023 and Recent Highlights<\/b><\/p>\n Financial Results for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2023<\/b><\/p>\n \nTotal net revenue was $34.4 million and $21.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and March 31, 2022, respectively. The increase is primarily due to an increase in net product revenue from our two main customers for LUPKYNIS driven predominantly by further penetration in the LN market.<\/p>\n \nTotal cost of sales and operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and March 31, 2022 were $64.0 million and $59.5 million, respectively. Further breakdown of operating expense drivers and fluctuations are highlighted in the following paragraphs.<\/p>\n \nCost of sales were $0.4 million and $0.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and March 31, 2022, respectively. The increase is primarily due to an increase in product related revenue, as gross margin was approximately 99% for the periods ended March 31, 2023 and March 31, 2022.<\/p>\n \nSelling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses, inclusive of share-based compensation, were $50.1 million and $45.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and March 31, 2022, respectively. The increase is primarily related to an increase in professional fees and services related to marketing and pharmacovigilance, share-based compensation expense and travel and related costs.<\/p>\n \nNon-cash SG&A share-based compensation expense included above for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and March 31, 2022 was $7.6 million and $6.0 million, respectively.<\/p>\n \nResearch and development (R&D) expenses, inclusive of share-based compensation, were $13.2 million and $12.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and March 31, 2022, respectively. The increase is primarily related to an increase in salaries and related employee benefit costs and share-based compensation expense as the Company advances its AUR200 and AUR300 programs and fulfills the post approval FDA commitments related to LUPKYNIS. The increase was partially offset by a decrease in contract research organization costs related to the completion of the AURORA 2 continuation study, which was completed in 2022.<\/p>\n \nNon-cash R&D share-based compensation expense included above for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and March 31, 2022 was $1.6 million and $1.0 million, respectively.<\/p>\n \nInterest income was $3.8 million and $0.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and March 31, 2022, respectively. The increase is due to higher yields on our investments as a result of increased interest rates.<\/p>\n \nFor the three months ended March 31, 2023, Aurinia recorded a net loss of $26.2 million or $0.18 net loss per common share, as compared to a net loss of $37.6 million or $0.27 net loss per common share for the quarter ended March 31, 2022.<\/p>\n Financial Liquidity at March 31, 2023<\/b><\/p>\n \nAs of March 31, 2023, Aurinia had cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash and short-term investments of $361.5 million compared to $389.4 million at December 31, 2022. The decrease is primarily related to the continued investment in commercialization activities and post approval commitments of our approved drug, LUPKYNIS, inventory purchases and advancement of our pipeline, partially offset by an increase in cash receipts from sales of LUPKYNIS.<\/p>\n \nAurinia believes that it has sufficient financial resources to fund its operations, which include funding commercial activities, including FDA related post approval commitments, manufacturing and packaging of commercial drug supply, funding its supporting commercial infrastructure, advancing its R&D programs and funding its working capital obligations for at least the next few years.<\/p>\n \nThis press release is intended to be read in conjunction with the Company\u2019s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and Management’s Discussion and Analysis for the quarter ended March 31, 2023 in the Company\u2019s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the Company\u2019s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, which will be accessible on Aurinia’s website at www.auriniapharma.com<\/a>, on SEDAR at www.sedar.com<\/a> or on EDGAR at www.sec.gov\/edgar<\/a>.<\/p>\n Conference Call Details<\/b><\/p>\n \nAurinia will host a conference call and webcast to discuss the quarter ended March 31, 2023 financial results today, Thursday, May 4, 2023 at 8:30 a.m. ET.

About 200,000-300,000 people live with SLE in the U.S. and about one-third of these people are diagnosed with lupus nephritis at the time of their SLE diagnosis. About 50 percent of all people with SLE may develop lupus nephritis. If poorly controlled, lupus nephritis can lead to permanent and irreversible tissue damage within the kidney. Black and Asian people with SLE are four times more likely to develop lupus nephritis and Hispanic people are approximately twice as likely to develop the disease compared to White people with SLE. Black and Hispanic people with SLE also tend to develop lupus nephritis earlier and have poorer outcomes, compared to White people with SLE.<\/p>\n About Aurinia<\/b><\/p>\n \nAurinia Pharmaceuticals is a fully integrated biopharmaceutical company focused on delivering therapies to treat targeted patient populations with a high unmet medical need that are impacted by autoimmune, kidney and rare diseases. In January 2021, the Company introduced LUPKYNIS\u00ae<\/sup> (voclosporin), the first FDA-approved oral therapy for the treatment of adult patients with active lupus nephritis (LN). The Company\u2019s head office is in Edmonton, Alberta, its U.S. commercial hub is in Rockville, Maryland, and the Company focuses its development efforts globally.<\/p>\n Forward-Looking Statements<\/b><\/p>\n \nCertain statements made in this press release may constitute forward-looking information within the meaning of applicable Canadian securities law and forward-looking statements within the meaning of applicable United States securities law.
