  • Acquired global rights to SOLOSEC® (secnidazole) 2g oral granules, a single-dose oral antibiotic FDA approved to treat two common sexual health infections – bacterial vaginosis and trichomoniasis.
  • Licensed Phexxi® (lactic acid, citric acid and potassium bitartrate) commercial rights in the Middle East to Emirati pharmaceutical company Pharma 1 Drug Store.
  • Partnered with leading telemedicine company Hello Alpha to add Phexxi to its commercial offering as a hormone-free contraception solution for women, especially those on GLP-1s and others looking for hormone-free birth control.
  • Negotiated a 7.4% lower rebate on Phexxi prescriptions to Medi-Cal, the California state Medicaid program service covering more than 15.4 million lives.
  • Launched a partnership with Modern Remedies, one of the top pharmacies in the Northeast, to dispense Phexxi.
  • Strengthened intellectual property with the issuance and Orange Book listing of the fifth U.S. patent covering Phexxi.
  • Delivered net sales of $4.2 million for the second quarter of 2024, an increase of 69% compared to the prior year quarter.
  • Reduced total operating expenses to $5.5 million, a 43% decrease compared to the prior year quarter.
  • Improved loss from operations 81% versus the prior year quarter to $1.4 million.
  • Received $2.0 million from Aditxt, Inc. (Nasdaq: ADTX), including $1.0 million in May 2024 to reinstate the Merger Agreement and $1.0 million from the sale of preferred stock to Aditxt in July and August 2024. Under the recently amended and restated Merger Agreement, the companies are working to close the contemplated transaction in late 2024.
  • “Evofem continues to prove that with a disciplined and committed team we can maneuver through challenges in the market and successfully execute our strategy to expand and diversify our revenue stream. In addition to delivering strong second quarter results, we closed two transformative business development deals that will improve access to differentiated treatment options that impact women’s daily lives,” said Saundra Pelletier, CEO of Evofem Biosciences. “Women don’t need more choices; they need better ones, and Evofem will continue to deliver on that promise.”

    Financial Results

    For the three months ended June 30, 2024, net product sales were $4.2 million compared to $2.5 million in the prior year period. The 69% increase primarily reflects an atypically high volume of product returns in the prior year quarter, which was not repeated in the current period.  An 8% increase in Phexxi ex-factory unit sales in the current period also contributed to the year-over-year growth.

    Total operating expenses were $5.5 million, a decrease of 43% compared to the prior year period.

    • Selling and marketing costs were essentially unchanged at $2.2 million for the second quarter of each year.
    • General and administrative costs were $2.3 million, a decrease of 54% compared to the prior year quarter.
    • Research and development costs were $0.3 million, a decrease of 33% compared to the prior year quarter.
    • Cost of goods sold (COGS) were $0.8 million, a 66% decrease compared to the prior year period primarily due to two items that resulted in atypically high COGS in the second quarter of 2023: i) a recorded increase in the inventory excess and obsolescence reserve, and ii) the effect of re-packaging to reflect the extended shelf life approved by the FDA in June 2022.

    As a result, operating loss improved to $1.4 million for the second quarter of 2024 as compared to an operating loss of $7.3 million in the second quarter of 2023.

    Net income attributable to common stockholders was $1.3 million, or $0.02 per share, for the three months ended June 30, 2024, due to a gain in other income/expense related primarily to the fair value adjustment of the financial instruments. This compares to a net loss attributable to common shareholders of $8.6 million, or $(5.43) per share, for the prior year quarter.

    Liquidity

    In May 2024, we received $1.0 million from Aditxt in consideration for reinstating and amending the Merger Agreement, as amended, between the companies (A&R Merger Agreement).

    At June 30, 2024, Evofem had $0.7 million of restricted cash, as compared to $0.6 million of restricted cash at December 31, 2023.

    In July and August 2024, we raised $1.0 million in aggregate net proceeds through the sale and issuance of 1,000 shares of Series F-1 Convertible Preferred Stock to Aditxt pursuant to the A&R Merger Agreement.

    About Evofem Biosciences

    Evofem Biosciences, Inc., is commercializing innovative products to address unmet needs in women’s sexual and reproductive health. The Company’s first FDA-approved product, Phexxi® (lactic acid, citric acid and potassium bitartrate), is a hormone-free, on-demand prescription contraceptive vaginal gel. It comes in a box of 12 pre-filled applicators and is applied 0-60 minutes before each act of sex.

    In July 2024 Evofem broadened its commercial offering with the acquisition of SOLOSEC® (secnidazole) 2g oral granules, an FDA-approved oral antibiotic for the treatment of two sexual health diseases: bacterial vaginosis (BV), a common vaginal infection, in females 12 years of age and older, and trichomoniasis, a common sexually transmitted infection (STI), in people 12 years of age and older. SOLOSEC provides a complete course of therapy in just one dose. 

    In December 2023, Evofem entered into a Merger Agreement with Aditxt, Inc. (Nasdaq: ADTX) under which Aditxt intends to acquire Evofem. The parties amended and restated the Merger Agreement, as amended, in its entirety in July 2024 and are targeting to close in late 2024.
