Theratechnologies Lowers Revenue Forecast, Highlights Going Concern Doubts

Theratechnologies, a biopharmaceutical company focused on developing and commercializing therapies for unmet medical needs, has revised its revenue target for the fiscal year. The company now expects to generate between $82 million and $85 million in revenue, a decrease from the previous guidance range of $82 million to $87 million.

In the three months leading up to August 31, Theratechnologies reported revenue of $20.9 million, which remained steady compared to the same period last year. Additionally, the company's third-quarter loss shrank from $7.5 million to $746,000.

However, Theratechnologies acknowledged that there is significant uncertainty surrounding its ability to continue as a going concern. This uncertainty is attributed to events or conditions that raise doubts about the company's future prospects.

Despite these challenges, Theratechnologies remains committed to addressing unmet medical needs through innovative therapies.

Theratechnologies' Financial Outlook

Theratechnologies, a leading pharmaceutical company, is faced with the challenge of ensuring sustainability over the next year. This will heavily rely on their ability to secure support from lenders. Key factors in this endeavor include obtaining a waiver for a liquidity breach, as well as increasing revenue and effectively managing expenses to generate sufficient cash flows. Alternatively, the company may need to explore alternative sources of funding.

In the event that Theratechnologies is unable to execute its plans, it may default on its loan facility. Such a scenario would force the company to either reduce or delay spending and seek additional financing through equity issuance.

Recently, Theratechnologies announced a significant development regarding its 2022 credit agreement. A provisional agreement has been reached to amend certain terms and conditions. Notably, the obligation to maintain a liquidity reserve of $30 million at all times will be removed if the concentrated formulation of their medicine, tesamorelin, is not approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration by March 31, 2024. Moreover, the company intends to shift its target metric from quarterly revenue-based to an adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) approach beginning with the quarter ending on November 30.

Theratechnologies remains committed to navigating these financial challenges and ensuring its sustained success in the industry.

Theratechnologies Files Supplemental Biologics License Application for Tesamorelin "F8" Formulation

Theratechnologies has recently submitted a supplemental biologics license application (SBLA) to seek regulatory approval for their innovative formulation of tesamorelin, known as "F8". This new formulation aims to effectively reduce excess abdominal fat in adults living with HIV and lipodystrophy.

Enhanced Concentration and Improved Administration

The proposed "F8" formulation offers a more concentrated medication, allowing for a smaller volume of administration. This breakthrough not only increases convenience for patients but also presents a novel delivery method. The new formulation will be available in a multiple-dose vial, which only needs to be reconstituted once a week.

Theratechnologies aims to improve the treatment experience for individuals with HIV and lipodystrophy by providing an innovative solution that simplifies medication administration and enhances overall efficacy.
