SWK Holdings Corporation (Nasdaq: SWKH), a life sciences focused specialty finance company catering to small and mid-sized commercial-stage companies, today provided a business update and announced its financial and operating results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2020.
"The second quarter continued what has been a strong start to the year for SWK, highlighted by strong specialty finance segment results, with our earning assets achieving an all-time high and an adjusted return of invested capital of
Mr. Black continued, "Approximately one year ago, SWK acquired Enteris BioPharma, which represented an exciting opportunity to add a wholly-owned pharmaceutical IP platform that could generate a portfolio of milestone and royalty income to supplement our specialty finance business through monetizing its Peptelligence® platform. SWK has worked closely with Enteris to strengthen its operations and enhance its management team. The appointment of Rajiv Khosla, Ph.D., as Enteris' new chief executive officer represents another crucial step in positioning Enteris for value creation. Dr. Khosla brings a wealth of experience and expertise from a distinguished career as an industry executive and consultant advising small biopharmaceutical companies, particularly in monetizing intellectual property. In the short time since being named CEO, Dr. Khosla has made a substantial imprint on Enteris' business, instituting a more robust business development effort and prioritizing potential owned-pipeline opportunities that should enable the company to capture more value-creating opportunities and maximize the potential of its Peptelligence® platform. SWK anticipates providing a more detailed update on Enteris' progress in early 2021."
Mr. Black concluded, "Expanding SWK's investor base and trading liquidity remains a priority, and the addition of SWK to the Russell indexes was an important step towards achieving this goal. The Russell indexes are a widely utilized investment benchmark that should enable SWK to broaden its investor visibility and increase shareholder value."

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This release includes non-GAAP adjusted net income and non-GAAP specialty finance net income, which are not metrics that are compliant with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP).
- Non-GAAP adjusted net income is adjusted for certain items (including (i) changes in the fair-market value of public equity-related assets and SWK's warrant assets as mark-to-market changes are non-cash, (ii) income taxes as the Company has substantial net operating losses to offset against future income, and (iii) depreciation and amortization expenses, primarily associated with the Enteris acquisition).
- In addition to the adjustments noted above, non-GAAP specialty finance net income also excludes Enteris operating losses.
- Tangible financing book value per share excludes the deferred tax asset, intangible assets, goodwill, Enteris PP&E, and contingent consideration associated with the Enteris transaction.
These non-GAAP measures may not be directly comparable to similar measures used by other companies in our industry, as other companies may define such measures differently. Management believes that these measures are useful to investors and management in understanding our ongoing operations and in analysis of ongoing operating trends and provides useful additional information relating to our operations and financial condition. These metrics should be considered in addition to, and not as a replacement for, the most comparable GAAP measure.
