NovaBay Pharmaceuticals Reports First Quarter 2021 Financial Results

  • Over-the counter (“OTC”) Avenova® revenue topped $1 million for the first time with record unit sales
  • Cash and cash equivalents of $10.5 million as of March 31, 2021
  • Extending the Avenova product line with complementary products

Conference call begins at 4:30 p.m. Eastern time today

NovaBay® Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NYSE American: NBY) reports financial results for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and provides a business update.

“Our focus on the OTC channel is paying off as Avenova direct-to-consumer quarterly revenue exceeded $1 million for the first time with unit sales setting a new record. The OTC channel accounted for approximately 79% of Avenova revenue for the quarter, up from 51% for the prior-year period,” said Justin Hall, President and CEO of NovaBay Pharmaceuticals. “We continue to view the OTC channel as the greatest growth opportunity going forward and intend to capitalize on this by adding complementary products to the Avenova lineup.

“We are making excellent progress building the OTC channel this year including expanding access to Avenova in CVS stores across the country, our first brick-and-mortar retail partner. In addition, we introduced Avenova Warm Eye Compress as a line extension to assist consumers in managing dry eye, with this product now available on Amazon.com and Avenova.com,” he added. “We will be launching two additional products in the coming months and expect to accelerate Avenova sales as we roll out new digital advertising campaigns. These campaigns will come with a heightened level of sophistication for real-time monitoring of performance to maximize return on advertising spend. Our online sales channel is now a significant part of our business and our direct-to-consumer advertising is now one of our core competencies.

“We believe NovaBay is extremely well-positioned to execute on our growth strategy including our new media campaigns, with capital sufficient to fund current operations well into 2022,” Mr. Hall added. “We have stepped up our efforts to grow through strategic acquisition of ophthalmic and skincare products to expand our presence in these key markets and leverage our sales channels. This is one of our most important strategic initiatives for 2021.”

First Quarter Financial Results

Net product revenue for the first quarter of 2021 was $1.8 million, compared with $1.9 million for the first quarter of 2020 with the difference due to revenue generated from products other than Avenova in 2020. Avenova revenue for the first quarter of 2021 was $1.6 million, up from $1.5 million for the first quarter of 2020. The increase reflects the continued higher number of OTC units sold, partially offset by a decrease in the number of net units sold through pharmacy channels.

Gross margin on total net sales for the first quarter of 2021 was 75%, compared with 69% for the first quarter of 2020, with the improvement due to the decrease in revenue from products other than Avenova which are sold at a relatively lower margin.

Operating expenses for the first quarter of 2021 were $2.9 million, compared with $2.8 million for the first quarter of 2020. Sales and marketing expenses for the first quarter of 2021 were $1.7 million, compared with $1.6 million for the first quarter of 2020, with higher digital advertising costs partially offset by lower sales representative headcount in the 2021 period. General and administrative expenses for the first quarter of 2021 were $1.2 million, compared with $1.3 million for the first quarter of 2020. The 2021 period included the favorable impact of an insurance reimbursement for legal costs incurred in the prior year.

Operating loss for the first quarters of 2021 and 2020 were unchanged at $1.5 million.

Net loss for the first quarter of 2021 was $1.5 million, or $0.04 per share, compared with a net loss for the first quarter of 2020 of $1.6 million, or $0.06 per share.

NovaBay reported cash and cash equivalents of $10.5 million as of March 31, 2021, compared with $12.0 million as of December 31, 2020.
