Third Quarter Highlights and Subsequent Updates

• Crown Laboratories and Revance Announce Entry Into Merger Agreement and Delay of Tender Offer Commencement. During the quarter, Revance and Crown Laboratories, Inc (“Crown”) announced that they had entered into a merger agreement pursuant to which the companies would seek to merge the two complementary organizations. Under the terms of the agreement, which was unanimously approved by Revance's Board of Directors, Crown will commence a tender offer to purchase all of Revance’s outstanding shares of common stock, at a price of $6.66 per share, in cash. As a result of discussions between the Company and Teoxane SA (“Teoxane”) regarding an alleged breach of the Exclusive Distribution Agreement for the distribution of the RHA® Collection of dermal fillers in the U.S. (the “U.S. Distribution Agreement”), the parties extended the date by which the tender offer must be commenced. Revance and Crown agreed to extend the tender offer commencement date to November 12, 2024 or another date mutually agreed to between the parties.
• Revance and Teoxane Enter into Agreements to Further their Partnership. Following a notice from Teoxane to remedy alleged material breaches of the U.S. Distribution Agreement and discussions between the parties, on October 24, 2024, Revance and Teoxane entered into a sixth amendment to the U.S. Distribution Agreement and an exclusive distribution agreement (the “ANZ Distribution Agreement”) pursuant to which Teoxane will act as Revance’s and Revance Australia's exclusive distributor and licensee in Australia and New Zealand of certain products containing DaxibotulinumtoxinA-lanm, including DAXXIFY®, for the treatment of (a) temporary improvements in the appearance of glabellar lines and other indications related to altering cosmetic appearance and (b) cervical dystonia. The ANZ Distribution Agreement expires December 31, 2040.
• DAXXIFY Approved in Mainland China for Glabellar Lines. On September 9, Shanghai Fosun Pharmaceutical Industrial Development Co., Ltd. (“Fosun”) announced that the Biologics License Application for DAXXIFY had been recently approved by China’s National Medical Products Administration for the temporary improvement in the appearance of moderate to severe glabellar lines.

Financial Highlights

• Total net revenue for the third quarter ended September 30, 2024 was $59.9 million compared to $54.1 million for the same period in 2023, representing an increase of 11%, due primarily to an overall increase in the sales volume of DAXXIFY and the RHA® Collection, partially offset by an overall reduction in the average selling prices for both product lines. Net revenue for the third quarter ended September 30, 2024 included $30.5 million of RHA® Collection revenue, $28.3 million of DAXXIFY revenue, and $1.1 million of collaboration revenue. Total net revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 was $177.2 million compared to $154.3 million for the same period in 2023.
• Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 were $62.6 million and $197.3 million compared to $65.8 million and $202.5 million, respectively, for the same periods in 2023. The decrease was primarily due to lower stock-based compensation charges and sales and marketing expenses related to DAXXIFY and the RHA® Collection, offset primarily by expenses related to the launch of DAXXIFY for cervical dystonia and $7.3 million of transaction costs related to the pending merger.
• Research and development (R&D) expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 were $11.4 million and $41.7 million compared to $8.7 million and $43.8 million, respectively, for the same periods in 2023. The decrease was primarily due to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s approval of our manufacturing partner’s, Ajinomoto Bio-Pharma Services, site in late Q1 2023 which allowed the subsequent DAXXIFY manufacturing expenses to be capitalized as inventory.
• Total operating expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 were $92.1 million and $290.8 million compared to $91.7 million and $294.9 million, respectively, for the same periods in 2023.
• Net loss from continuing operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 were $38.1 million and $125.1 million, respectively, compared to $39.4 million and $146.1 million for the same periods in 2023.
• Cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments as of September 30, 2024 were $184.1 million.
