SAN FRANCISCO, CA / ACCESSWIRE / August 22, 2022 / Jaguar Health, Inc. (NASDAQ:JAGX) ("Jaguar" or the "Company") today provided Company updates and reported consolidated second-quarter 2022 financial results.
Prescription product net revenue was approximately
"We are very pleased that growth in Mytesi (crofelemer) revenue continued in the second quarter of 2022," said Lisa Conte, Jaguar's president and CEO. "We completed the full shift this past January to a patient access strategy that involves transitioning to a limited distribution network of specialty pharmacies, which reduced our distribution costs and improved our Mytesi gross-to-net ratio dramatically. It is wonderful to see Mytesi growth continuing following this transition and the other components of our Mytesi patient access program, including our ongoing educational and promotional activities in 2022 and the launch this past May of our telehealth initiative for Mytesi. Most importantly, we are pleased with the realization of our mission of providing relief with a novel, plant-based, first-in-class mechanism of action to patients in need - including patients for whom no alternative therapeutic options exist."
"Jaguar is focused on two late-stage clinical events in the next approximately 6 to 12 months that we expect to be transformational in terms of value creation and recognition for the Company. We anticipate the completion in 2022 of an investigator-initiated proof-of-concept study of crofelemer for short bowel syndrome (SBS), supporting the potential for expanded patient access to crofelemer in Europe in 2023 for this devastating and often catastrophic disease for these patients, who are frequently on parenteral nutrition for as long as 20 hours a day, seven days a week. The third-party investigator, Dr. Mohamad Miqdady, Division Chief of the Pediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatology & Nutrition Division at Sheikh Khalifa Medical City, is targeting the presentation in December 2022 of results from the SBS study at a global GI conference in Dubai. Our second key clinical activity is our Phase 3 pivotal OnTarget trial of crofelemer for our core follow-on indication of prophylaxis of cancer therapy-related diarrhea (CTD). We expect enrollment in this pivotal trial to complete in the first half of 2023," Conte said.
2022 MILESTONES, UPDATES & ACCOMPLISHMENTS:
- Phase 3 clinical trial of crofelemer for cancer therapy-related diarrhea (CTD) in humans: The pivotal OnTarget Phase 3 clinical trial of crofelemer for prophylaxis of CTD was initiated in October 2020and is ongoing. The Company is in the process of adding additional clinical trial sites - both in the US and outside the US - to accelerate patient enrollment. Further details about the trial can be viewed here on the clinicaltrials.gov website. Is it estimated that 50
-80% of chemotherapy patients experience diarrhea,1 and diarrhea has the potential to cause dehydration, potential infections, and non-adherence to treatment in cancer patients. Patients with CTD are40% more likely to discontinue their chemotherapy or targeted therapy than patients without CTD,2 and the cost of care of CTD patients is estimated to be 2.9 times higher than for patients who are not experiencing CTD.3 - 2022 & 2023 Milestones: Completion of investigator-initiated proof-of-concept studies of crofelemer for SBS and congenital diarrheal disorders (CDD) with intestinal failure: Napo Therapeutics, the Italy-based company Jaguar established under exclusive license to crofelemer in Europe, is supporting planned investigator-initiated studies of crofelemer in patients with SBS or CDD with intestinal failure, with a planned primary endpoint of reduction of weekly volume of parenteral nutrition. On December 13, 2021, the EMA granted Orphan Drug Designation (ODD) for crofelemer for SBS in the European Union, and crofelemer has received ODD in the U.S. for SBS. The EMA is committed to enabling early patient access to new medicines, particularly those that target an unmet medical need, and ODD status in the EU is expected to support Napo Therapeutics' plans to make crofelemer available through Early Access Programs in the EU for SBS. Participation in Early Access Programs provides a potential opportunity for meaningful revenue generation in addition to the ability to impact important morbidity, mortality, and the cost of care for chronically ill patients for whom no good therapeutic options exist. SBS affects approximately 10,000 to 20,000 people in the U.S.,4 according to the Crohn's & Colitis Foundation, and it is estimated that the population of SBS patients in Europe is approximately the same size.5 Despite limited treatment options, the global SBS market exceeded
$568 million in 2019 and is expected to reach$4.6 billion by 2027, according to a report by Vision Research Reports. - May 2022 submission of an Orphan Drug Designation (ODD) application to the European Medicines Agency (EMA) for crofelemer for a rare congenital diarrheal disorder (CDD): Napo Therapeutics, the Italian corporation established by the Company in Italy in 2021 that focuses on expanding crofelemer access in Europe, submitted a CDD ODD application for crofelemer to the EMA. CDDs are a group of inherited chronic enteropathies characterized by heterogeneous etiology, and each type of CDD is thus a different disease with a different pathogenetic mechanism. CDD is a life-threatening and rare autosomal recessive disease that affects newborns and children and leads to significant morbidity and even death from severe secretory diarrhea.
- Q3 2022 Milestone: Filing of an Investigational New Drug (IND) application with the FDA for NP-300 (lechlemer) for the symptomatic relief of diarrhea from cholera: Lechlemer is the Company's drug product candidate for symptomatic relief of diarrhea from cholera. It is a standardized and proprietary botanical drug product that is sustainably derived from the same source as crofelemer - the Croton lechleri tree - and works by the same mechanism of action as crofelemer. In support of the planned IND application filing for lechlemer, the Company received comprehensive animal toxicity preclinical services supported by the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases for four preclinical studies. The Company intends to pursue a tropical disease priority review voucher under the FDA's financial incentive program to develop drugs for tropical diseases such as cholera. Priority review vouchers are transferable, and in past transactions by other companies have sold for prices ranging from
$67 million to$350 million , which provides for a potential immediate return on investment upon approval of the product for the symptomatic relief of diarrhea from cholera. - 2022, Jaguar's Year of the Dog: Launch activities remain underway for Canalevia-CA1 in the U.S. veterinary market for the treatment of chemotherapy-induced diarrhea (CID) in dogs, and the second quarter of 2022 is the first Canalevia-CA1 revenue recognition period for the Company. Canalevia-CA1 was the focus of Jaguar Animal Health's activities at April's Veterinary Cancer Society Mid-Year Conference in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. Jaguar Animal Health exhibited at the June 23-25, 2022 American College of Veterinary Internal Medicine (ACVIM) Forum in Austin, Texas, and will be exhibiting at the September 7-11, 2022 International Veterinary Emergency and Critical Care Symposium (IVECCS) in San Antonio, Texas, and at the October 13-15, 2022 Veterinary Cancer Society (VCS) Annual Conference in Norfolk, Virginia. Dogs, as with humans, go off their disease modifying chemotherapy approximately
40% of the time due to diarrhea, and dogs are a predictive model of the human situation. Jaguar expects that Canalevia could additionally receive FDA conditional approval, under the name Canalevia®-CA2, for the treatment of exercise-induced diarrhea (EID) in dogs in the next 6-8 months. - Jaguar's Canine Cancer: Take C.H.A.R.G.E. (Canine Health And ReGistry Exchange) initiative launched with a special media event and performance in New York City on May 23, 2022. Take C.H.A.R.G.E. established the first-ever U.S. canine cancer national registry and cancer care index to assess the prevalence and incidence of cancer in dogs. The mission is important, because protecting dogs from cancer begins with knowing its impact by breed, type, age, gender, and location. The data may also provide insights to help better understand cancer in humans and the importance of managing side effects in human cancer therapy. On August 10, 2022, Gallup published an article providing their analysis of results from Take Charge of Canine Cancer, the first-ever nationally representative survey of U.S. dog owners' experiences with the disease. The survey, which comprises the Index component of the Take C.H.A.R.G.E. initiative, found that of the
67% of Americans who have had at least one dog in the past 10 years, nearly one in five - equating to approximately 30 million people - say at least one of their dogs has experienced cancer. Gallup's article, which can be viewed by clicking here, also describes the Take C.H.A.R.G.E. initiative.
Ongoing business development initiatives in 2022:
- In June 2022, as announced, Jaguar entered an exclusive license and services agreement with Ontario, Canada-based SynWorld Technologies Corporation (SynWorld) for the treatment of diarrhea in dogs in the China market with Jaguar's Canalevia drug product. Per the terms of the agreement, Jaguar has engaged SynWorld as a service provider to obtain regulatory approval of the product for Jaguar in China and granted SynWorld a license to commercialize and sell this product following such approval in China. As consideration for the license, Jaguar is entitled to receive
60% of any profits from sales of the product in China. If Jaguar reimburses SynWorld for the direct expense of obtaining regulatory approval in China, the profit sharing will be80% and20% , respectively, for Jaguar and SynWorld. The agreement also entails monthly license fee payments by SynWorld to Jaguar amounting to US$5.0 million in total during the initial two-year term of the agreement, realized as a commitment by SynWorld to make quarterly purchases of Jaguar common stock (purchased at market price in unregistered stock at the time of purchase). As consideration for the regulatory services to be provided by SynWorld, Jaguar will pay SynWorld a monthly service fee up to U.S.$5.0 million in total over the initial two-year term of the agreement in the form of unregistered Jaguar stock. - In June 2022, as announced, Jaguar and Filament Health signed a letter of intent to enter a collaboration agreement to develop botanical prescription drugs for specific psychoactive target indications in the United States. The goal of the collaboration is to extend the botanical drug development skillsets of both companies in order to develop pharmaceutical-grade, standardized drug candidates and partner with a potential future licensee regarding the development and commercialization of these novel plant-based drugs for indications such as attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and social anxiety disorder. Jaguar's Entheogen Therapeutics Initiative (ETI) aims to discover and develop groundbreaking, novel, natural medicines derived from psychedelic and psychoactive plants for treatment of mood disorders, neurodegenerative diseases, addiction, and mental health disorders. Jaguar is in discussions with potential partners for this initiative.
- The Company is continuing to manage its relationship with Quadri Pharmaceuticals Store LLC (Quadri Pharma) following the execution on March 31, 2022 of an exclusive crofelemer distribution and license agreement for multiple target indications in Middle East markets. As announced, the agreement grants Quadri Pharma exclusive promotional, commercialization, and distribution rights for specified human indications of crofelemer in Bahrain, Kuwait, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, and Oman following regulatory approval to market crofelemer in these countries for the specified indications, including the indication currently approved in the U.S. for HIV-related diarrhea, and cancer therapy-related diarrhea. In addition, the agreement grants Quadri Pharma exclusive rights to distribute crofelemer in these countries in the immediate future under Named Patient Programs. Jaguar expects patients in this territory to be able to access crofelemer before the end of 2022.
- Jaguar is continuing efforts to forge additional license and business development relationships in key markets around the globe.
Updates about recent and currently active investigator-initiated trials of crofelemer:
- Investigator-initiated HALT-D trial evaluating crofelemer for preventing chemotherapy-induced diarrhea (CID) in HER2-positive breast cancer patients: The full results of this study, which were presented at the San Antonio Breast Cancer Symposium (SABCS 2021) in December 2021, are being submitted to a medical journal in 2022 for consideration for publication.

2022 SECOND QUARTER COMPANY FINANCIAL RESULTS:
Prescription product net revenue was approximately
"Mytesi total prescription volume increased
The Company believes the availability of Mytesi through specialty pharmacies represents a significant benefit to patients, as such pharmacies focus on complex and chronic conditions and offer a higher level of support for prior authorizations, appeals, adherence reminders and counseling, and home delivery options.
- Mytesi Prescription Volume: As stated above, Mytesi prescription volume increased
8.2% in the second quarter of 2022 over the first quarter of 2022. Prescription volume differs from invoiced sales volume, which reflects, among other factors, varying buying patterns among specialty pharmacies in the closed network as they manage their inventory levels. - Mytesi Net Product Revenue: Mytesi net revenue during the second quarter of 2022 was approximately
$2.8 million and approximately$2.6 million in the first quarter of 2022, an increase of approximately$0.2 million , or approximately10% , quarter over quarter, and an increase of approximately644% over Mytesi net revenue in the second quarter of 2021, which totaled approximately$0.4 million . The transition to a limited distribution network of specialty pharmacies, which was completed this past January, resulted in a meaningful reduction in Mytesi distribution costs and a higher average net price. As part of the process of transitioning to the closed specialty pharmacy network, the third and fourth quarters of 2021 were significantly impacted by the inventory draw-down of approximately 1,300 bottles of Mytesi across the Company's third-party logistics warehouse, wholesalers, distributors, and retail stores. - Mytesi Gross Product Revenue (Non-GAAP): Mytesi gross revenue was approximately
$3.7 million in the second quarter of 2022 and$3.4 million in the first quarter of 2022, representing an increase of approximately$0.3 million or9% quarter over quarter, and a decrease of approximately24% over Mytesi gross revenue in the second quarter of 2021, which totaled approximately$4.9 million . - Canalevia-CA1 Net Product Revenue: Canalevia-CA1 (crofelemer delayed-release tablets), the Company's prescription drug product for the treatment of chemotherapy-induced diarrhea (CID) in dogs, became commercially available to veterinarians across the U.S. at the end of April 2022. Canalevia-CA1 net and gross revenue during the second quarter of 2022 were approximately
$87.4 thousand . - Neonorm™: Revenues for the non-prescription Neonorm products and Jaguar's Animal Health business unit were minimal for the second quarters of 2022 and 2021, in accordance with the Company's primary focus on human health and prescription products.

Note Regarding Use of Non-GAAP Measures
The Company supplements its condensed consolidated financial statements presented on a GAAP basis by providing gross sales, non-GAAP EBITDA, and non-GAAP recurring EBITDA, which are considered non-GAAP under applicable SEC rules. Jaguar believes that the disclosure items of these non-GAAP measures provide investors with additional information that reflects the basis upon which Company management assesses and operates the business. These non-GAAP financial measures are not in accordance with GAAP and should not be viewed in isolation or as substitutes for GAAP net sales and GAAP net loss and are not substitutes for, or superior to, measures of financial performance in conformity with GAAP.
Gross sales percentages issued by the Company are based on gross sales figures that represent Mytesi orders placed by select Specialty Pharmacies with Jaguar's third-party logistics warehouse, less allowances for rebates and discounts, which generate the cash flows for Napo Pharmaceuticals, Inc. ("Napo"), Jaguar's wholly owned subsidiary. Gross sales are used internally by management as an indicator of and to monitor operating performance, including sales performance of Mytesi, salesperson performance, and product growth or declines. Gross sales are not a measure that is recognized under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") and should not be considered as an alternative to net sales, which is determined in accordance with GAAP, and should not be used alone as an indicator of operating performance in place of net sales. Additionally, gross sales may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies, as gross sales have been defined by the Company's internal reporting practices. In addition, gross sales may not be realized in the form of cash receipts as promotional payments and allowances may be deducted from payments received from certain customers. Mytesi gross sales are reduced by specialty pharmacy discounts, Medicare rebates, Medicaid rebates, 340B discounts, ADAP rebates, VA rebates, copay program costs, prompt pay discounts, and returns based on historical trends to determine net sales.
The Company defines non-GAAP EBITDA as net loss before interest expense and other expense, depreciation of property and equipment, amortization of intangible assets, share-based compensation expense and provision for or benefit from income taxes. The Company defines non-GAAP Recurring EBITDA as non-GAAP EBITDA adjusted for certain non-recurring revenues and expenses. Company management believes that non-GAAP EBITDA and non-GAAP Recurring EBITDA are meaningful indicators of Jaguar's performance and provide useful information to investors regarding the Company's results of operations and financial condition.
