Foley continued, “I’m pleased with the strong execution of our commercial team and the ongoing growth of our customer base which will enhance our cross-selling ability over time. The third quarter marks the one-year anniversary of the launch of the RHA® Collection and given the challenges of introducing a new product line in the middle of a pandemic, I’m incredibly proud of how our entire organization has performed.

Corporate Update
-
Revance is taking prudent measures to focus on the following strategic priorities: 1) obtaining FDA approval for DaxibotulinumToxinA for Injection in glabellar lines as soon as possible; 2) increasing revenue in the
U.S. dermal filler market with the RHA® Collection; and 3) expanding and deepening customer relationships through OPUL™.

Our current capital allocation is focused on supporting the company’s strategic priorities. In addition, the company is preserving cash to enhance its financial flexibility. Efforts underway to preserve cash include but are not limited to: pausing non-critical hires; deferring the Phase 3 clinical program for upper limb spasticity and other therapeutics pipeline activities; and deferring international regulatory and commercial investment for DaxibotulinumtoxinA for Injection, with the exception of supporting our partnership with
Shanghai Fosun Pharmaceutical Industrial Development Co., Ltd.

Dustin S. Sjuts , from Chief Commercial Officer, Aesthetics and Therapeutics, to President of Revance.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Revance has presented certain non-GAAP financial measures in this release. This release and the reconciliation tables included herein include non-GAAP selling, general and administrative expenses, which excludes depreciation, amortization and stock-based compensation; non-GAAP R&D expense, which excludes depreciation, amortization and non-cash stock-based compensation; and total non-GAAP operating expense, which excludes costs of revenue, depreciation, amortization and stock-based compensation. Revance excludes costs of revenue, depreciation, amortization and stock-based compensation because management believes the exclusion of these items is helpful to investors to evaluate Revance's recurring operational performance. Revance management uses these non-GAAP financial measures to monitor and evaluate its operating results and trends on an on-going basis, and internally for operating, budgeting and financial planning purposes. The non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with GAAP but should not be considered a substitute for or superior to GAAP results.
Certain non-GAAP measures included in this report were not reconciled to the comparable GAAP financial measures because the GAAP measures are not accessible on a forward-looking basis. The company is unable to reconcile these forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures without unreasonable efforts because the company is currently unable to predict with a reasonable degree of certainty the type and extent of certain items that would be expected to impact GAAP measures for these periods but would not impact the non-GAAP measures. Such items include costs of revenue, depreciation, amortization, and stock-based compensation. The unavailable information could have a significant impact on the company’s GAAP financial results.
