Insys received FDA approval for the marketing of SyndrosTM (dronabinol oral solution), a proprietary, orally administered liquid formulation of dronabinol.
"We are pleased that despite the recent drop-off in volume, Subsys has maintained an approximately 44% market share. We believe that Subsys will continue to provide a very solid financial foundation for the Company, and we remain focused on restoring Subsys scripts to a growth path," said Dr. John N. Kapoor, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of Insys Therapeutics. "The recent FDA approval to market Syndros is excellent news. We are eager to expand our commercial portfolio with a product that we believe has distinct advantages over the current formulation of dronabinol in soft gel capsule and one that will provide significant long-term growth opportunities for Insys. We are proud of our pipeline and believe that product candidates in both sprays and cannabinoids hold great promise. As always, we remain committed to serving the patients who rely on our compounds, while striving to deliver value to Insys stockholders," he concluded.
Second Quarter 2016 Financial Results
Net revenue for the second quarter of 2016 was $67.1 million compared to $77.6 million for the second quarter of 2015, a decrease of 13.5%. The results reflect a decline in Subsys prescription volumes due to softness in overall demand in the TIRF category, including Subsys, and continued pressure from third-party payers.
Gross margin was 91% for the second quarter of 2016 compared with 89% for the comparable quarter of 2015.
Sales and marketing expense was $19.7 million during the second quarter of 2016, or 29% of net revenue, compared to $22.0 million, or 28% of net revenue, for the second quarter of 2015.
Research and development expense increased to $22.9 million for the second quarter of 2016, compared to $17.8 million for the second quarter of 2015, as we continue to advance the multistage products in our pipeline.
General and administrative expense decreased to $13.9 million for the second quarter of 2016, down from $15.3 million for the second quarter of 2015.
Income tax expense was $240,000 for the second quarter of 2016, compared to $4.8 million during the second quarter of 2015.
Net income for the second quarter of 2016 was $4.4 million, or $0.06 per basic and $0.06 per diluted share, compared to net income of $7.3 million, or $0.10 per basic and $0.10 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2015. Non-GAAP adjusted net income for the second quarter of 2016 was $9.5 million, or $0.13 per diluted share, compared to non-GAAP adjusted net income of $15.6 million, or $0.21 per diluted share, in the prior-year quarter.
