2010 Pipeline and Business Goals:
Fourth Quarter and Year-End 2009 Financial Results (Unaudited):
As of December 31, 2009, CombinatoRx had cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and short-term investments of $25.9 million compared to $43.7 million on December 31, 2008.
Total revenue was $8.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2009 compared to $3.5 million reported in the fourth quarter of 2008. For the year ended December 31, 2009, revenue was $17.3 million compared to $12.3 million for 2008. Revenue increased from 2008 to 2009 due to the accelerated recognition of deferred revenue related to the early termination of our agreement with Angiotech.
Net income for the quarter ended December 31, 2009 was $25.2 million, or $0.57 per share, as compared to a $15.2 million loss, or ($0.43) per share, in the fourth quarter of 2008. Stock-based compensation expense was approximately $0.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2009 as compared to $0.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2008. For the year ended December 31, 2009, net income from continuing operations was $1.3 million, or $0.03 per share, compared to a net loss of $60.6 million, or $(1.74) per share, in the year ended December 31, 2008. Stock-based compensation expense was approximately $3.9 million and $5.7 million in the years ended December 31, 2009, and 2008, respectively.
Research and development expenses totaled $3.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2009 compared to $9.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2008. Research and development expenses were $21.2 million in the year ended December 31, 2009 compared to $55.3 million in the year ended December 31, 2008. The $34.1 million decrease from the 2008 period to the 2009 period was primarily due to a decrease of $16.7 million in preclinical and external clinical expenses, a $10.8 million decrease in compensation and benefit expenses, associated with reduced headcount attributable to the 2008 and 2009 restructurings, a $5.6 million decrease in consulting, lab supplies, facilities, depreciation and other overhead costs related to our 2008 and 2009 restructurings, as well as a $1.0 million decrease in non-cash stock-based compensation expense.
General and administrative expenses were $5.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2009 compared to $3.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2008. General and administrative expenses were $17.1 million in the year ended December 31, 2009 compared to $14.5 million in the year ended December 31, 2008. The increase was due primarily to professional and consulting expenses related to our merger with Neuromed.
