“We have made significant progress toward our long-term goal of defeating neurodegenerative diseases. We successfully completed Phase 1 healthy volunteer clinical trials for our LRRK2 inhibitor and RIPK1 inhibitor programs, initiated clinical studies in patients with Parkinson’s disease, ALS and Alzheimer’s disease, and further validated our blood-brain barrier delivery technology,” said Ryan Watts, Ph.D., CEO. “Furthermore, we are excited about our strategic partnerships with Takeda and Sanofi which allow us to broaden our portfolio and expand into new programs and indications.”
Fourth Quarter 2018 and Recent Business Highlights
Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2018 Financial Results
For the fourth quarter of 2018, Denali reported a net income of $77.5 million compared with a net loss for the fourth quarter December 31, 2017 of $22.9 million. For the year ended December 31, 2018, net loss was $36.2 million, compared with a net loss for the year ended December 31, 2017 of $88.2 million.
Collaboration revenue was $125.7 million and $129.2 million for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2018, respectively, with no collaboration revenue recognized for both the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2017. The increase in revenue in both the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2018 compared to the same periods in 2017, was due to revenue recognized under the Option and Collaboration Agreement with Takeda Pharmaceutical Company Limited, which we entered into in January 2018 and amended in February 2019, and the Collaboration and License Agreement with Sanofi, which we entered into in October 2018.
Total research and development expenses were $39.9 million for the fourth quarter of 2018, including non-cash stock-based compensation of $2.9 million, compared to $18.5 million for the fourth quarter of 2017, including non-cash stock-based compensation of $0.7 million. Total research and development expenses were $143.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2018, including non-cash stock-based compensation of $10.1 million, compared to $74.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2017, including non-cash stock-based compensation of $2.9 million. The increase in total research and development expenses of $21.4 million and $68.7 million for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2018, respectively compared to the same periods in 2017, was primarily attributable to an increase in personnel-related expenses, including non-cash stock-based compensation, driven primarily by higher headcount and new options granted at higher exercise prices subsequent to Denali's initial public offering. Further, there was an increase in external research and development expenses reflecting the progress of Denali's most advanced programs in the clinic, the growing and maturing pipeline, and an increase in other research and development expenses primarily due to rent expense associated with the headquarters lease amendment to relocate and expand our headquarters and an increase in lab consumable expenses.
General and administrative expenses were $11.0 million for the fourth quarter of 2018, including non-cash stock-based compensation of $2.7 million, compared to $5.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2017, including non-cash stock-based compensation of $0.4 million. General and administrative expenses were $32.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2018, including non-cash stock-based compensation of $8.7 million, compared to $15.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2017, including non-cash stock-based compensation of $1.6 million. The increase in total general and administrative expenses of $6.0 million and $16.7 million for both the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2018, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2017, was primarily attributable to an increase in personnel-related expenses, including non-cash stock-based compensation, driven primarily by higher headcount and new options granted at higher exercise prices subsequent to Denali's initial public offering, an increase in legal and professional service expenses required to support Denali's ongoing operations as a public company, and an increase in rent expense associated with the headquarters lease amendment.
Cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities were $612.2 million as of December 31, 2018.
