Recent Highlights and Corporate Updates
Quarter Ended March 31, 2019 Financial Review
For the quarter ended March 31, 2019, Aldeyra reported a net loss of approximately $15.6 million, compared to a net loss of approximately $8.4 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2018. Basic and diluted net loss per share was $0.58 for the quarter ended March 31, 2019, compared to $0.43 per share for the same period in 2018. Losses have resulted from the costs of research and development programs; non-cash charges in connection with Aldeyra's January 2019 stock-for-stock acquisition of Helio Vision, Inc. (Helio); and general and administrative expenses.
Research and development expenses were $7.8 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2019, compared to $6.6 million for the same period in 2018. The increase of $1.2 million is primarily related to the increase in research and development expenditures, including manufacturing, preclinical, and clinical development costs; and an increase in personnel costs; and non-cash compensation costs related to a portion of the upfront consideration paid to the founders of Helio.
In connection with the Helio acquisition, in-process research and development expenses were $6.6 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2019. There was no such expense for the three months ended March 31, 2018. The acquired in-process research and development expensed during the quarter was comprised of a non-cash charge related to the fair value of consideration issued to the Helio non-founders, a cash charge related to Helio acquisition transaction expenses, and a non-cash charge related to the deferred tax liability arising from the accounting differences for book and tax purposes resulting from the acquisition.
General and administrative expenses were $3.0 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2019, compared to $1.9 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2018. The increase of $1.1 million is primarily related to an increase in personnel, legal, and patent-related costs.
For the quarter ended March 31, 2019, total operating expenses were approximately $17.4 million, compared to total operating expenses of approximately $8.5 million for the same period in 2018.
Cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities were $82.1 million as of March 31, 2019. In March 2019, Aldeyra entered into a Loan and Security Agreement, which provides up to $60 million in non-dilutive financing. The facility advances capital at Aldeyra's option based upon certain funding conditions. Aldeyra elected not to draw the initial term loan advance, which expired on April 15, 2019. An additional term loan advance of $15.0 million is expected to be available, and may be drawn at Aldeyra's option, through September 30, 2019.
