Chief Executive Officer and President
|
• |
Achieved third quarter 2021 total revenue of $12.1 million and product revenue of $9.4 million, representing growth of 17% and 12%, respectively, compared to
the prior year period. After reflecting the deferred recognition to the third quarter of 2020 of revenue associated with shipments from the second quarter of 2020, total revenues in the third quarter of 2021 increased by $4.5 million,
or 59.2%, compared to the prior year period.
|
• |
Awarded substantial purchase orders in July 2021 from Bio-Manguinhos for DPP SARS-COV-2 Antigen tests and the Partnership for Supply Chain Management, supported
by The Global Fund, for STAT-PAK 1/2 HIV tests.
|
• |
Launched US commercial distribution of a third-party COVID-19 Antigen Assay.
|
• |
Raised $38.8 million in net proceeds from at-the-market offerings of common stock launched in July.
|
• |
On July 20, 2021, the Company received a $28.3 million purchase order from Bio-Manguinhos for the purchase of DPP SARS-CoV-2 Antigen tests for delivery during
2021 to support the urgent needs of Brazil’s Ministry of Health in addressing the COVID-19 pandemic.
|
• |
On July 22, 2021, the Company received a $4 million purchase order from the Partnership for Supply Chain Management, supported by The Global Fund, for the
purchase of HIV 1/2 STAT-PAK Assays for shipment to Ethiopia into early 2022.
|
• |
Limitations of the Company’s staffing, supply chain and liquidity have impaired, and are expected to continue to impair, the Company’s ability to fulfill at
least $11.5 million of the July Purchase Order from Bio-Manguinhos by December 31, 2021, the end of the existing shipment schedule under the order.
|
• |
Earlier delays in clinical trials, which reflected the impact of the COVID-19 vaccination rollout and the related decline in positivity rates at clinical trials
on the Company’s clinical plan enrollment levels, and continuing requirements of achievement of regulatory approvals may limit the Company’s ability to achieve a portion of the revenue- and cash- generating milestones under a $12.7
million award granted pursuant to the Company’s contract dated December 2, 2020 with the BARDA, which contract will, unless extended by BARDA, expire on December 2, 2021.
|
• |
The ongoing healthcare and economic impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on the global customer base for the Company’s non‑COVID-19 products continue to negatively affect the timing and rate of recovery of the Company’s revenues from those products by, for example, decreasing the allocation of funding for HIV
testing, thereby continuing to adversely affect the Company’s liquidity.
|
• |
Although the Company has entered into agreements to distribute third-party COVID-19 products in the United States, its ability to sell those products could be
constrained because of staffing and supply chain limitations affecting the suppliers of those products.
