ACADIA Pharmaceuticals Inc. (Nasdaq: ACAD) today announced financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2019.
“In 2019 ACADIA demonstrated strong execution from our commercial and R&D teams, driving the continued growth of NUPLAZID and advancing our late-stage pipeline,” said Steve Davis, Chief Executive Officer. “2020 will be a transformational year for ACADIA highlighted by a potential approval in dementia-related psychosis, additional pivotal study results in major depressive disorder, commencement of a second pivotal study for the negative symptoms of schizophrenia and the continued enrollment of the Phase 3 trofinetide study for Rett syndrome. This exciting momentum has created a multi-year cadence of pivotal study readouts and potential regulatory approvals that position the company for long-term growth.”

End of fourth quarter days-on-hand channel inventory increased relative to the third quarter 2019, which resulted in approximately $2.5 million increase in fourth quarter 2019 net sales. For the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, ACADIA reported net product sales of $339.1 million and $223.8 million, respectively, an increase of 52% year-over-year.

The increase during the 2019 periods as compared to 2018 was primarily due to development costs associated with trofinetide and additional clinical study costs for pimavanserin.

This increase during the 2019 periods as compared to 2018 was primarily due to increased general and administrative expenses including charitable contributions and personnel costs.
Net Loss
For the fourth quarter of 2019, ACADIA reported a net loss of $53.0 million, or $0.34 per common share, compared to a net loss of $65.5 million, or $0.50 per common share, for the same period in 2018.

Cash and Investments
At December 31, 2019, ACADIA’s cash, cash equivalents, and investment securities totaled $697.4 million, compared to $473.5 million at December 31, 2018. The increase was primarily due to net proceeds of $271.5 million from ACADIA’s September 2019 public offering of common stock as well as additional cash proceeds from employee option exercises of $91.6 million.
2020 Financial Guidance
ACADIA’s 2020 net sales guidance reflects annual revenue growth of approximately 34% for NUPLAZID, at the mid-point of the range. 2020 GAAP R&D guidance reflects the progression of four phase 3 studies this year. 2020 GAAP SG&A guidance reflects a similar level of investment to 2019 in PDP with new investments in preparing for a launch in DRP including disease-state educational initiatives and plans for the expansion of our commercial and medical affairs functions.

About NUPLAZID® (pimavanserin)
NUPLAZID is the first and only FDA-approved treatment for hallucinations and delusions associated with Parkinson’s disease psychosis. NUPLAZID is a selective serotonin inverse agonist/antagonist preferentially targeting 5-HT2A receptors that are thought to play an important role in Parkinson’s disease psychosis. NUPLAZID is an oral medicine taken once a day with a recommended dose of 34 mg. NUPLAZID is not FDA-approved for dementia-related psychosis, schizophrenia, major depressive disorder, or depressive symptoms in patients with Parkinson’s disease. ACADIA discovered and developed this new chemical entity and holds worldwide rights to develop and commercialize NUPLAZID.
About Trofinetide
Trofinetide is an investigational drug. It is a novel synthetic analog of the amino‐terminal tripeptide of IGF-1 designed to treat the core symptoms of Rett syndrome by potentially reducing neuroinflammation and supporting synaptic function. In the central nervous system, IGF-1 is produced by both of the major types of brain cells – neurons and glia. IGF-1 in the brain is critical for both normal development and for response to injury and disease. Trofinetide has been granted Fast Track Status and Orphan Drug Designation in the U.S. and Orphan Drug Designation in Europe for both Rett syndrome and Fragile X syndrome.
