Insights

SIGA's Q3 results show mixed performance with notable highlights. Product revenues increased to $8.9 million in Q3 2024 from $8.0 million in Q3 2023. The company secured significant government contracts, including a $112.5 million BARDA order and $9 million Department of Defense order for TPOXX. With $146 million in outstanding procurement orders, revenue visibility is strong for Q4 2024 and 2025.

The company's transition to profitability is evident with Q3 net income of $1.3 million compared to a loss of $0.4 million last year. Year-to-date revenues of $57.3 million represent substantial growth from $23.4 million in 2023. The special dividend of $0.60 per share indicates strong cash generation and shareholder-friendly policies.

The PALM 007 clinical trial results for TPOXX in mpox treatment present a nuanced picture. While missing the primary endpoint for general lesion resolution, the drug showed promising efficacy in two important subgroups: patients treated within 7 days of symptom onset and those with severe disease (100+ skin lesions). These findings align with the drug's mechanism of action and suggest targeted application potential.

The new license agreement for monoclonal antibodies from Vanderbilt University represents strategic portfolio expansion into biologics. With DoD funding through Phase 1 trials, this development could diversify SIGA's orthopoxvirus treatment options beyond TPOXX, potentially addressing broader market needs.

  • Product Revenues for the Three and Nine months Ended September 30, 2024 were $9 million and $53 million, respectively
  • Received $122 Million of Procurement Orders from the U.S. Government in the Third Quarter

Recent Developments:

  • In October 2024, the Company announced that it obtained an exclusive license to a portfolio of preclinical fully human monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) from Vanderbilt University that have the potential to treatment a broad range of orthopoxviruses, including smallpox and mpox. Under the agreement, SIGA has exclusive rights to develop, manufacture, and commercialize these mAbs globally. The U.S. Department of Defense is currently funding the development of these mAbs as potential orthopoxvirus treatments through Phase 1 clinical trials under a contract awarded to a contract manufacturing organization with proven biologics development and manufacturing expertise.
  • In October 2024, the Company announced its first sale of TPOXX (tecovirimat) in Africa, made in response to a request from the Ministry of Health in Morocco. This milestone sale occurred during the third quarter.
  • In August 2024, the Company received a procurement contract and related order from the U.S. Department of Defense for approximately $9 million of oral TPOXX, as well as a small amount of IV TPOXX.
  • In August 2024, the Company reported that the National Institutes of Health’s (NIH) National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) announced topline results from a preliminary analysis of the PALM 007 (Tecovirimat for Treatment of Monkeypox Virus) clinical trial (NCT05559099). NIAID reported that the study did not meet its primary endpoint of a statistically significant improvement in time to lesion resolution within 28 days post-randomization for patients in the Democratic Republic of the Congo with mpox who were administered tecovirimat versus placebo. Improvement was observed, however, in patients receiving tecovirimat whose symptoms began seven days or fewer before randomization and in those with severe or grave disease, defined by the World Health Organization as having 100 or more skin lesions. The Company believes these data are consistent to tecovirimat’s mechanism of action and support further trials to assess its potential benefit in post exposure prophylactic settings, or in patients who present for medical care soon after symptoms, and in those with the most severe disease.
  • In July 2024, the Company received a procurement order for $112.5 million of oral TPOXX from the U.S. Government under the 19C BARDA contract, for delivery to the U.S. Strategic National Stockpile (SNS).

Capital Management Activity:

On April 11, 2024, a special cash dividend of $0.60 per share was paid, an increase of $0.15 per share from last year’s special cash dividend.   This dividend was declared on March 12, 2024.
